I just scheduled a premiere of an upcoming video. Last time I held one, I noticed the comments didn't seem to "show up" after the premiere. Made me wonder what makes a premiere valuable if the engagement isn't visible to people who watch later - Does anyone have any insight on this?

Last time I tried this 30-Day Creator Challenge… this is about where I quit. Not because I ran out of ideas.Not because I couldn’t film. I quit because I started overthinking everything. I tried to build the whole vision at once — the cooking channel, the yoga lifestyle, the Skool, the message, the brand. It all started to feel complicated and I lost momentum. This time I’m doing it differently. I’m just showing up each day and doing the next step. One realization that hit me this week is something I’ve always known deep down: what I’m building looks like a cooking channel on the surface, but it’s really about something much bigger. Meditation Kitchen isn’t just about food. Cooking is the doorway.The real message is about living better — slowing down, being present, breathing, learning, and discovering a lifestyle that actually brings some peace into our lives. The hardest part this week has been keeping that message clear. The easiest part? Talking about it. Once I start sharing about food, meditation, and the lessons I’ve learned along the way, the ideas just keep coming. Another thing surprised me this week. When I stop trying to make everything perfect and just follow the plan… I actually move forward faster. Tiny consistency beats big sprints. For me that means simple things:• writing one video idea down each day• filming when I’m already cooking• opening YouTube Studio and learning something new Nothing huge. Just keeping the engine running. And here’s the biggest win of the week: I made it past the point where I quit last time. That might sound small, but to me it means something. It means momentum is starting to build. Cooking is still the door… but the lifestyle is the journey. On to Week 2. @Dr. Saundra Stancil @Jenny Sharratt @Jaye Brunner @Dajana K.

I don’t post much here but needed to share b/c nobody I know IRL gets it lol. Just hit 100 Subscribers 🤩 I’ve been posting long form videos 1x a week since Jan.1 when I had less than 10. I posted my first short on Friday and it really helped drive views across everything. I added over 25 subscribers in 2 days. I don’t know if that’s great or not but it’s the most momentum I’ve had ever so yay :) Keep going everyone 💪

Today I have reached 1500 subscribers. Like many others I am on a slow growth path. Nevertheless, I celebrate every subscriber, and added nearly a 1000, actually 972, in the last 365 days. It also means that watch hours might grow a bit faster now. My goals is to reach the 4000 hours by the end of the year. Currently the channel is at 3055 (counted up to 8 november), but I think in the last 5 days the viewing hours increased at least by 150.

I'm new here....
