Vlogger's Content Philosophy and Merchandise

not going to lose sight of what that felt like or where that was. It's just not not going to happen. I've learned so much in the past year, past 6 months especially about just not getting caught up in you know, doing it for content. I'm done doing it for content. I've been done. I started to slip and go down that road where I was tailoring my actions just for the content cuz I thought it would do well or I thought people would like it. And it left me really unfulfilled because I was not doing what I set out to do.

You just can't. Like you got to you got to pick and choose what you spend money on, what's going to produce the return, what's worth your time and what's not, you know, because it's not like a side project where if you have like a main job you can kind of fiddle with this whenever you want cuz like you're doing this but for us this is this this is all we got it has to work it has to work.
