SHARING SOME LIFE-CHANGING NEWS. π«’β¨
I know I've been MIA, and as I teased in a last video... I was neck-deep in moving house.
But what I didn't share was WHERE we were moving to... which was across the world, to Hong Kong. ππ°
Spilling the beans on my BRAND NEW VLOG channel: https://youtu.be/IL5ZXnmABeg?si=JBzT2...
I'll be getting back to content creating tips real shortly, just working on building an IKEA desk in my new apartment. π

A little Happy Birthday to me β¨π
Yesterday I rang in 31 with a new venture! Head over to my last video to see how it came to be, and find out more at kayamarriott.com/ .

We got a littttllleee controversial in this week's upload. π€π½
But I'm honestly a little tired of how quick people are to list the brand deals they WOULDN'T do, the opportunities THEY WOULDN'T TAKE, without checking their privilege and REALLY putting themselves in someone else's shoes.
A disclaimer for the millionth time--this is to help understand others and hopefully explain other people's rationales... not to excuse behaviour.

A change that no one will notice, and that will affect no one but myself. π€£
Switching my upload days to Thursdays.
Will I still miss some? Probably.
But I've been struggling with Tuesday being so close to the 'start' of my week. In general, I find Monday/Tuesdays to just be very slow moving for me. So it's been a block that so soon after my week has started, I need to take on this big project.
This is your reminder that just because you started doing something one way, doesn't mean you can't change it.
And that these changes are probably a LOT bigger to you than they are anyone else.

A follow-up poll to my last pose RE: merch β¬οΈ
I almost exclusively live in crewneck sweaters and sweatshirts, so that is what I am most inclined to sell .. but would love to also gauge what you would be more inclined to buy.

Working on a lil merch thingy π BUT something that I'm bummed about is the Canadian dollar. π
I'm trying to figure out pricing for things, but whatever feels reasonable in USD feels like gouging in CAD.
How much would y'all (Canadian or otherwise) reasonably pay for a crewneck sweatshirt? π

today's video about saying no to things as an influencer is going to be for everyone who said they wanted a podcast from me. It's 30 min y'all. ππ

Currently trying to batch film YT videos so I can get back to my regular schedule. π
EVERY time a video 'blows up' or at least out-performs my standard, I overthink my next move and fall behind on uploads.
More Creator Economy commentary content is in the works, but also planning to get back to infusing these other pillars more consistently into my content:

Y'all know I've been celebrating 10k+ subs and a couple video "blow ups" that blew past my previous 2k view peak...
And while a lot has been trial and error and learning as I go, as I've mentioned before, *actually* talking to creators who knew this platform better than I did, and who could give me an objective look, REALLY helped me make videos to reach a broader audience.
In particular--I did a consultation call with my friend βͺ@MattMortβ¬Β , and it REALLY helped to have an outside perspective on my content, and get feedback on how I could structure and better-execute ideas I had been sitting on.
He's opened up a few spots for consults, with some extra ongoing support in the DMs/Emails, and just wanted to put it on your radar! β¬οΈ
And since everyone is real suspicious on these apps--literally paid him with my own dollars and am recommending him from experience to share the love--no compensation on my end. π€£
Heck go look at some of the channels under his testimonials. π

Planning more video-commentary on the creator economy πβοΈ
What are some topics you don't see addressed with enough nuance? This is NOT meant to be a hate-brigade.
