welcome back to the third episode of the do the thing podcast with us the juicy look but we have a guest our first guest on the show welcome Firefox thanks so much we just we've just filmed yeah our first guest we've just filmed a hilarious video for your channel or will link all Freya's stuff in the description of this podcast and the video if you're watching on YouTube yeah Freya how you doing after that yeah it was intense fun we did a GCSE test yeah didn't go well it was stressful but we did it we're done yeah now don't do any more schoolwork nice reboot for my brain back yeah yeah so Freya has a YouTube channel what's your sub count at the moment 55,000 yeah amazing so we're here like and you're 16 I'm 16 yeah just turned Wow really yeah you're so mature everyone says that yeah I think it's you seem older it's his older sisters yeah that's drink and as well I think I can be by I can be mature and I've gotta be I can also be 17 definitely definitely mature yes I think it's coming up we just kind of want to have a chat about YouTube I suppose and like obviously you've got gotten quite big in the past is it how like two months yeah months yeah she's crazy just I think I decided like to do like the really think people have told me I was stupid for doing I'll say you know what I'm gonna my GCSEs yeah it's such a great idea because that's what you want to see like someone going through it on YouTube is like yes such a good idea because I remember searching out before I didn't Martha everyone see what people like and there was a few people did a day or two maybe a week in their life and I was like no I want to do every day I want to upload it just after so that people can come somewhere after they've done the DC's he isn't good right how did Fry fine is how did one in the comments find this and it came little community it's amazing you're literally filming the day of the yeah and the people did come yeah they did come so how your kind of views and stuff before all that and like on those videos how different was it it was so different that I remember I because I've done videos for a long time so I've got subscribe to different things videos doing well and so for like gaining and I remember I was like oh my channel something that great anymore I was I had like quite a few subscribers that the views weren't great and I was like oh like it kind of got to the point where I was in a bit of a rock you know you like my videos and I'm she's not really enjoying that much I wasn't you know what I would have loved because I really liked looking and everything's told me I've got really funny friends I was like this just works it makes sense and see how before it like before my they were just you know we're just thinking I could do that I know I can do better I know I can make better videos than this and yeah it seems I started my videos members in the library after one of my exams like revising and me and my friend on my sub count up and I gained like 2000 subscribers while I was revising for this exam I was like wow it's just it's mental how you know and it felt so nice because it wasn't like I was like you know I didn't have to do anything like crazy to do and I'm just doing something everything exactly and it was great Evan was my age everyone I could relate to me like it was relatable content it was good oh my god this crazy things happen to this crazy because you know like YouTube's turned into such a place or I think the only way to like people think the only way to gain subscribers it's the click bake bake bake yeah like they're you know doing something they're not and you know exaggerated things I should just do something and people just to find it entertaining and to find it like relatable and subscribe for that any reason not subscribed because it was like something out of the ordinary yeah I think about it I think that's it's just so relatable isn't it yeah I know like when I was doing my decease you were just saying earlier that you did all your revision from you - yeah we were books like and post-it notes you didn't revise Georgian revises disease at all night before adverse maybe like half an hour or something oh yeah I'd never have thought to even look on YouTube to find stuff for it and now that that's how it is I'm talking about it's only like five years ago but how it's changed so much yeah and it's such a good idea like doing relatable stuff yeah it's crazy how much YouTube literally got me like I think everyone told me this earlier YouTube got people for exams because you had that that emotional support basis for other people blog and going for it you didn't have like literal teachers teaching new stuff you know you'd like people like there's people that Mr brough and they'll be there right that for a bit right this the last minute things you not going to school I had study leave yes I mean I just went into school my exam and left yeah so I was doing that and he still had these teachers in your sub box every night like and acne right you're gonna revise these things tonight and it was just nice it was like school it was like a whole new school kind of layer and youtubers yeah it is crazy how things are in so handy and where do you see it kind of going saucy Oh juicy Caesar over now you love to get your results yeah soon but like where do you see your channel going now I wouldn't go definitely dumb or the vlog path like you guys do that because that's what people like again it's relatable content like it's more popularity it's like sit down sit down videos it's nicely what I got doing one like now and then and yeah things like that but I read you liked the idea of doing like you know like college and like talking Kyle it just like teen life yes I like kind of being that teenage you can go to me okay what spreading for this like yes they were chatting about how I went to like one of my closures I was supposed to go to and like hated it yeah and people I have the same thing like I didn't like my college yeah do you want to do it I'm at what this is what I'm doing and it's yeah I just want to do more relatable things and like I really want to like give people an insight into kind of teenage life who may be you know haven't been teenage for a few years or what still kind of abouts gotta say actually like ice Griffing on to that about so you're um you've said to you started making videos when you were eight years old yeah and I guess back then you probably didn't have like a focus particularly now you're just doing whatever you want that was before people making money of things like there's like it was like YouTube was literally certain people went on yes just for fun yeah and that was like that I think I was the best times it I think like especially I remember watching it and I still was doing it in like 2000 like 14 times but like the British youtubers were like all the talk and they were going to I am a TFS and things like that yeah I remember yeah and they were friends through a lot like it was through it like their management's and like that was at the prime time and at that point note they were really the only people who had that as a job it wasn't like now obviously it's such a big thing there's so many people who this is their job now or yes like they're making enough to like yeah and on that so you've always got years of content ahead of you now like you just said college you can kind of take the take the audience you've gained from all the juicy stuff and you can like lead them through with so you've got like college that even if you decide to go to you yes something do you know are you looking at like the potential is YouTube what you want to do yeah definitely I think definitely like that field yeah I love it like entertainment I've always want to be an actress like no my goal is to like I want to go to a drama school I've always said like if I would I don't see myself like doing something really academic but yeah a hundred percent I think like this industry's like the best one to be in I love entertainment and things like that so yeah just I've always said I don't see myself sitting you know office job know like especially now and the horrible times like it like kind of mad but I have this insight now like having this is my job like is like even though I don't need a job right now I'm young but it's that the fact that this is my job now and it's doing something I enjoy whether I work for two years in a pub washing dishes like yeah and the age of like 13 to 15 I did that every Sunday and I'm like she's to cry before it next I hated it I was I'm not that person to do a job like being able to quit and being like okay it's fine like YouTube I can put focus on YouTube and I was like now this is my job like I don't want to go back from that I can't I just can't see myself doing it so just yes definitely and might be able to like entertain people yeah and it for it to be a job and doing so at you because you guys also like doing something you enjoy there's no point is literally like exactly like how I think dude laughing yeah yeah and it's good Eve had that experience of doing like a normal job you've got that grounding yeah because I think a lot of people have come into YouTube like all those people we spoke about a minute ago where that was their first job that's been their only job it's nice that you've kind of had that other experience as well maybe want to do it more I think that's the people who you see the people who've done so successful looks like through things like that just opal don't success and their jobs and make money the only the people who have actually gone free like you know done things before and had to like work their way up good Marion has the experience of working a horrible job well they just don't want to go and then finally doing something they love so yeah I'm happy I did it like because it's definitely made me a lot more thankful I think that was my first job oh this is easy yeah how you make money that every job easy yeah I understand like now and like when I talk to my friends who were going like trying to get their jobs like I'm not like like I saw it's just a job like oh yeah I'm sound like I hated working I started working so early yes I've like I've just always wanted to be able to like that supply for myself be able to do things and like yeah pay for things myself I hate like they either pay around like I was earning 14 pounds a week doing it everyday like literally like obviously hey to like come rain and shine snowing I was out there doing it if my mom's listening she probably said actually I did most of them for you mother but no I actually I was like so money driven and wanting to get up and do stuff myself from an early age so you see you're 16 and you've kind of found obviously it's gonna change in whatever be you've kind of found a thing you love doing you can make money from it that's crazy like you're so young but I guess a lot of people your age and even are a to Lucy's 21 I'm 25 don't have a clue what they want to do with their lives so like what would you say to someone maybe your rate or kind of you know between 15 and 20 that kind of age bracket who just doesn't have a clue what they want to do what would you kind of say I think I just say you have to keep you know everything starts as kind of a hobby I think as well like no matter what you know you think you're going to go into you need to stick to kind of what you want to do like I did YouTube for years going nowhere I started it me and my I remember it was a craze in school like everyone wants you to see I did it only eight like was when I really started doing it properly and everyone just stopped doing it and it was just me and everyone's that face or doing it God Fraser doing it and like I got some why am I still doing it and all the sudden it that's when I started like getting a bigger audience and I think just if you're enjoying something and if you it's what you want it to go somewhere or if you want like everything it's not YouTube it's a random job you know if you want something enough you're gonna get amazing exactly how we feel actually yeah it's been quite like it's not a slow growth rest but like I feel like we have always been like true to ourselves in what we do like we've never done videos lepsy like jumping off the back of things you find like you said do you think crazy to get views we've kind of just done it how we like it and finalities yeah exactly exactly that's the best way for it to be as well though because there's I mean there's been times where I've like especially in the past like I've got a video done well like a video got like a 100,000 bees yeah it's good then that's there people are not staying you know there's yeah I'll go back videos cool and then I you're back to doing videos that I really enjoy I guess I don't recap yeah like so it's you know the steadiness is the best way to be I think I'm over with everything it's like be having that steady people watching videos you have like people coming every week or every day I know there's gonna be a new video yeah it's much better even that your audience yeah yes it's personal I could comfort something it's better than being one you know the recommended page once and going you're gaining people who are just interested in that video I like don't even take a look at the other line then you'd feel a need to carry on creating that sort so what would you so you obviously you're you were in a school environment you do in YouTube loads of people other people around you probably wanted to do you GAC did you come across I'm sure you had a ton of support from your friends and stuff did you come across sort of jealousy and negativity and sort of that because we obviously we get that in the form of comments yeah but we're not in a school building every day we don't see the people who are commenting negatively on our kind of so it was like harsh isn't it like yeah and I was pretty lucky I remember at the start I think there's a point where people start taking more seriously and even those horribly is it's when it becomes money and come to yeah that's how people work you know he was doing something as much you could literally be posting that covers on you know view singing everyone make fun of you until you get discovered CIA you're making money everyone is money driven and I remember when I wasn't you know was just I was doing it for fun like obvious will do fun now but like when it was that was it it wasn't anything more it wasn't my job yeah people were like he's still doing it at all for happily was a bit boring so to say people like like my best friends like to me like we're so unsafe right I don't really get why people watch GCSE video she's like I find a bit boring I don't really get it I don't really get like what do their GCSEs come home and watch a video about GCSE yeah yeah yeah it's hard to wrap your head around but no I was really lucky because I think I don't know if girls are nicer or girls are more behind your back so it was never to my face it yeah yeah so I was like that I was lucky in that sense but no I have him really lucky you my friends were really really nice about my family's always like from a supportive and like I said like I spent you guys earlier you know my bike my pack families within my frame like uploaded in a week like coming up loud like you know great if you don't like and now I've always had like the right support systems from it's really good yeah I think it just when people get a bit like funny about it a lien the day like it's if they've got to go and do different things that's all to know what they want to do if it's something you want to do there's no listening to them there's a reason that they're getting jealous about it and it's just jealousy anyhow jealousy so definitely so um we spoke about in our last episode here about kind of not caring about other people's opinions and stuff you seem like a really positive person just from knowing you yeah so do you do that do you just hate comment stuff you just don't care I don't know what my thing is but I've never really got a lot of hate comments really always little silly things like I don't know like they're mostly from like people I know as a joke a little bit something like that or no I've never really got like I think people who normally watch your videos if your video is kind of a like fine standing video it gets a normal view as you get normally hate doesn't come that much it's when a video goes onto a recommended page or yeah gets attention people's I don't know you feel like again a faced off I think the most hate I got which wasn't really hey I don't know if it was kind of like trying to be helpful but I've got when I started my GCSE videos everyone was like what the hell are you doing they're lying or being stupid wiping YouTube before your education like yeah he's wasting time and I was like I'm sort like and I was like oh my god maybe I shouldn't be doing this and I member I was like to admit mom that was like iPhones telling me I shouldn't be doing this she was like no no like trust me like I think it's writing to do hope you'll like it sit down revise stop taking video about it on the internet and this is so ironic that that is what's kind of like launched you recently it's my Sieben and yeah that sense I think it's again it's just people being like is something that's out of the normal like no one's really done that before I feel like I couldn't find somebody on YouTube that looked everyday at those TCS yeah yeah so it's okay really and did you was that consciousness decision or did you just like do the first day and first couple day and then you saw the people coming in like I need to carry the time I honestly I thought I wasn't gonna I'm not very good at commitments like correct I started it and I was like and I started doing it and I was like maybe I'm not gonna stick to this I even sent the stars I think it's gonna be a serious that see how long it lasts and obviously I'll go to a few weekends off took a few weekends off and then we had half time I didn't do as much things I was no I didn't do a revision half time no it's late in bed but yeah I like yeah I just I tried to I I decided like I think a bit you know as I can't stop now I was like people in fairways everyday where I've had my revision break and there's no video to watch oh my god yeah it was kind of a thing of like you know I never didn't take a lot my time I said to people that start these videos aren't going to be amazing these videos aren't going to be well edited we've like you know like a juicy look style video moaning about the fact that I don't want to be revising and like it's gonna be me like cooking my food and like yeah everyone's doing it I said that the start I never wanted to put myself with there's a pressure that I had to make these amazing videos that's why I said I'm gonna drop my iPhone I'm gonna do it really like chilled out and I think if I didn't take that approach and I was trying to be really like well educated were there and you know spend time doing it then I wouldn't off and it wouldn't look like you were going through it people be thinking why is she doing all this to me feel me interesting like it should just be with you yeah are you are naturally doing a revision yeah I wanted to do it yeah and I got it I remember cuz I was like people want to see more about what about can you like look like you going out of your friends for like a day or like I looked like a bit of my house parties which people yeah a lot of teenage girls like going to a house party yeah so I did that for them that people love that and like love issues I think it's again like you said related will come like think people haven't seen it before if someone hasn't seen you know or someone to do the GCSEs or they did it was a bit different or someone ever went to a house party in their like teenagers because they want to or every since I'm like okay well look you can live it through me oh yeah you'd have to do that getting ready I'll just take you to a house party yeah yeah really so yeah it was just kind of that approach I think I was there I'm really glad I did it I definitely like that now a really good choice no definitely obviously you've had like loads of amazing moments or three YouTube what do you think your favorite moment would be and yeah I think it's opportunities so my favorite so like I got to I was interviewed by The Sunday Times like a few weeks ago from that free cheese yesyes which was crazy like doing a huge like being on their website being like the newspaper and you know like the Sunday Times like amazing that was crazy and as well meeting people like yeah that's friends or people who watch my videos like summon City I've made so many friends and I go into conventions and like me similar to you like be able to see my face yeah it's like you know you don't realize like especially like around these areas like not all people like from where it's just you know that people creating communities which is what we need to do that you did it with like your whole bloggers event you did yeah it's like that's that's the amazing thing it's like I wouldn't know half the people I know because of it I've made friends who maybe don't do you should anymore I've met them because of this like friends even in my friendship group that I know now is because like they found that interesting and like we got on through it like yeah that's definitely something that I think it's been amazing as well like I said to being able to focusing it like all the time like be able to quit my job but like that's been an amazing opportunity because that was such a big stressor people as well through GCSE season is trying to like get job alright I've got to work on Saturday so I can't revise on Saturday yeah that's like I think not a lot of people got to like deal with and be able to like just apply of myself and like say four things and being able to like have an income which is yeah through something like YouTube is crazy you're really like trying to say into older people how do you what do you say I'm sorry cool okay but I just like those videos and and yes I'm liking it's my job and he's my makeup so obviously I YouTube isn't all about views and subscribers and all that kind of stuff so I mean we obviously and it's hard not to compare yourself sometimes to either channel so we like obviously look up to being the channels in the kind of content that we make and we want to produce what kind of channels do you look up - what kind of even I subscribe accounts like where do you want to go have you got like a goal that you set yourself yeah what kind of channels looks like besides looking I really like looking there's like I think the new like inverse of kind of like teenage girl youtubers it's coming in with like a lot more I think a few years ago teenage girl you're like very like oh like floral is that the red like you know they had to be very like innocent there's this like new influx of like girls who were just like growing up their friends like having last like wait on this yeah I like that Emma chamber then I watched her a lot she's an American youtuber and she's very like you know like just she's like my age it just doesn't really care and I said yeah I love that like I like I do I love like the quick editing videos we're gonna get more into that actually editing my videos so I think that's amazing but yeah I know I thought sure I set myself a goal I wanted 50,000 by August this year smash day yeah I really wanted it for Soros yes I want to go somewhere City Lexie or 50k what do you want to do it and really so yeah I'm really guided that but I think it's hard to tell with subscribe just 110 don't we predict when you're gonna get I let you at the socks your house I've got I'm we're gonna get 50k by August 20,000 I was like yeah I think I'm gonna gain 30,000 subscribers now don't even try it but I think it's so unpredictable like you know there could be this huge influx of people start within YouTube and then everyone subscribe accounts could go up by a family and easily and it's just like cuz there's a lot of people and in a million won't be a lot and in 10 min you might be a lot so it's fine well once you've got like we found when we got to like 1000 we were calmer that's amazing and then like looking on to five thousand it was like god that's ridiculous and then now you're there you're like oh like what's next as you find you get quite used to it yeah and I like still wanna one more and more said it's kind of like you know I remember oh my god I hate it on my birthday 50,000 just in May so I was like oh my god that's like mint or 50,000 people and you start to think like H fastened like that you stayed you could fill that like twice it's like it's like if you think about I like that but I think it's it's it's quite hard not to like it yeah used to the number I think you forget you like a 5,000 but then I've always found it hard because I've always been type s that compare myself and I'm like okay I've got 50,000 Oscar but then like my friends got this much and I'm it's not as many yeah you I think it's just you've got remember that like it's it's you've done that like as much as somebody else has done that nothing nothing yeah and you know a lot of you know youtubers who have bigger amounts they might put a lot of money into it or something you should have gone out the wrong way like it's not like you know it's like parshas say some have like some of got it from helping that other things or things they've done like crazy things in their life but I'm just happy that I'm happy with how I've got there yeah that's the main thing like mine actually happening I haven't like done anything insane yeah but I just I just want to keep growing and I want to keep like I just want to keep like the how I'm happy with it now and I want to make sure I keep enjoying it and I don't want to carry on doing it if I do stop enjoying it yeah yeah there's no point you know I didn't do what you love basically again at the end day like if you you you in a job and you hated it would you stay there that's the problem yeah that's what we speak about on this podcast quite a lot and why are people doing things that they don't want to do we we spoke about that life timeline things like birth and death and then teenage years and stuff and retirement and then in the middle is work work so many people like do something that they don't enjoy for that amount of time last 70 80 % of your life crazy we always like to I remember - what's a famous it was like to me I'm like you know what like I've got 14 months off and I have to go back to college I fast the easy is anybody see you've got to do all this like working you've got work every day you've got like and I'm like don't talk negatively like I don't want to be like that I'm like I'm gonna try my best not to end up being I don't want to be in a job or doing something I don't enjoy being in a situation anything it's just jobs that really you know it's something anything life like yeah I think like when I was your age I was so like opposite I was like I need to get a good job that pays well me too and it's so good you've like realized I feel like we've realized this in the past like maybe like couple years I feel like you've realized it like so yeah and that's so great because it's like you were already ahead of everyone else it's brilliant social media gets obviously great things about it it gets a bad press sometimes doesn't it as well especially all the generations as well do you say like people addicted to it people on the phones constantly not living in the real world how do you kind of look at that do you a good thing or like I think I like to me a lot of people say it's really negative but like we see the good side of it and how it had you know even in a restaurant light you have to take photo of your food sometimes before you even eat it and stuff about what do you think addiction is bad I think social medias bad things good I I'm one see I'm a bit I'm once I kind of like either side about it I think as well I've grown up with this like what proper modern-day social media as a teenager yeah just the worst age to grow up we are things like snapchat maps and yeah you see where you are constantly and you know mr. Garre isn't it yeah I hadn't percent like no you know you're you can see everything you know everyone is where am i you know what they're doing yeah though they're literally with like yeah and see their groupings and see who they're with and you know you can tell when they're on there like phones because it was a active now like yeah it's it's it's scary in a sense like I love social media like as much as we go says we like it's a scary place you know people are addicted to it I think we were last secretly liked but then at the end of the day like it's an amazing thing like imagine a life without it like you can do with it yeah exactly I find funny the you know older people generally diss social media yeah the fastest-growing age demographic on Facebook is like 50 to 70 young people are on their phones down the street texting or whatever yeah everything's progressing like everything around us cars are getting different but they're not what about that you know like everything's change true if we if I like technology wasn't changing you know we weren't you know getting that like getting more in social media and you know more jobs are coming out of it there's so many positives out of it and there are those negatives as well but there's notice with everything yeah I think people forget you know that they people like they bash youtubers because they say oh they do these bad things but then you've got so many other careered like you've got people in like governments doing bad things like MPs you know everyone is doing bad things but they they they go for us because it's easy yeah it's easy and it's different oh yeah people hate change especially the older generation one thing I've learned is they ciao and the fact that TV people aren't going like do like watching TV as much like the young generations I have much TV in like years we don't we don't know like you know their YouTube TV isn't exactly and it's free like that's a thing like you're paying for this it's it's a free service that people are you know making living out of or being able to entertain you and there's a good you know they say it's a horrible place but I mean they reduce your monetization things like that now like it's like things are getting better but I think it's the fact that they just think it's a change of the times that they don't like because yeah I want everything to stay the same if it stayed the same then we live a very boring well it's always good to be everyone's doing it would kind of just gotta join it ya know I do think it's a positive thing as much as sometimes I wish that there was at social media because of you know things I've seen like happen online and things I've I've gone through and like you know arguments with friends that happen on you know people are a lot more bold over text we said oh yeah hiding behind the keyboard or whatever it's a lot easier as that's hate comments or if that's your friend in an argument everyone's more bold yeah they could you can't go which is exactly she's like go through the screen but write this actually chat about this people in more bold and that's that's obviously a disadvantage of it but I do think is an amazing thing and you know it doesn't matter who was on it or who was controlling it on what was made it's the people at yeah just because it's social media it's happening on it's not social media doing it you have people on social media which I've always been here will always be here it's just the fact that they've got they've got a voice but we shouldn't be changing social media because people are being innocent on it people are doing the right things we should be changing the actual people yeah you know only the bad stuff gets highlighted off it's like you know like restaurant reviews people don't go and leave a good review so the the business side of it and do you see it as a business you obviously are kind of running a business but do you see it as that see I've never I never have I think my think was my mom said to me other day she was like you know you're self-employed means but I mean I mean Yaron sense is a business and you have to you know I've tried to get more into like my analytics and things like that now if I found that tab or my yeah great like I am yeah I'm trying to get more a bit more like savvy with things like that but I mean I I do I suppose it is a business and I see in sense of a business but to me it's so much more simpler than that I try to explain to people I'm the most simplest yes people get so caught up in numbers and what age watch my videos what what genders watching my videos you know how many views did this one get to this one this one wasn't long enough this was too short or maybe my videos need to have this in it like I just I just like I actually simple with it you know like if like especially with obviously there's so much more to what then people see you know you're doing your emails and things like that and I try to be really good with like sponsorships and like you know the business side of things and I I don't like doing I'm like don't like doing things like that I really don't like just you just want to make your videos yeah we hate the idea of like we'd never would say like we've never worked on the brand unless we genuinely believe in it like we hate the idea of doing stuff just for money and then like not calling our audience but like pushing second we don't actually believe in like I think we're very with a lot of bigger youtubers now are saying they don't have time to make videos because they're doing all the business side of it seems so ironic but like you are 16 and you're you know you're dealing with brands and contracts and you're having meetings and all that kind of stuff and you're making obviously making money from YouTube doing something that you love which is incredible and you you know you're a teenager who doesn't need to get a normal part time job how do your sore friends like feel about that when their lives are very different very different and they they need to get a part-time job in a cafe or a bar or restaurant or whatever surprising it's very--it's and yeah I mean I think I have a summer and it what a popular topic when I do see my friends at things that parties maybe it's more conflicts people have all the things in them better is it's very like do you make money how much money do you make first question how much money do you make and that's also like people like at work would be like oh well and so how much you actually make without you then and I'm like we all know how much do you make at your job you people say is a different thing but it's really not it's just doing something that happens to make money a lot of people yeah a lot my friends I think as much as I love me they get angry they're like I just don't understand it I like doing nothing like you're especially like with me my videos are so simple I like they are so like just like copies pretty fun to it and just like cut it up a little bit and put it up like I think for example your videos I think about if I was uploading videos your style my friends be a table a yeah you are spending quite a lot of time like fry oh really like I could be on set I'm not I know like don't think I'm never there defending me I know YouTube is such hard work like yeah in the day this the job I'm like having this as a job is a lot easier than what my friends have to do when they do their paper rounds or they're working jobs like in a cafe for not enough money that they should be earning so hard jobs aliens day like YouTube is it has it stresses but compared to some jobs in real life it is easy and it is a lot easier and it's not a walk in the park and you do get you know horrible comments and things like that and you do have to you know spend time replying to emails and you have the stresses and like just in case something doesn't go well and it's unpredictable that's a horrible think about it yeah don't know your time span like people could just click off yes yeah and it's over like it's not you know it's it's probably not sustainability like we don't know we don't know what YouTube's feature is don't know what the next thing is if it's gonna be around for much longer like it's still growing now but what if people get bored of that and is something new that happens exactly that's why I've always been very I've always been that I've gotta have a plan B just in case yeah I was like you know oh okay well it's like maybe you've had any money I can I can always if I need to get a job I can do this and like I've always been scared for that reason but yeah I think the reaction towards my friends and things that like is it is it's anger and I completely understand it like it is it so why are you getting this like how come that that is a job but how is YouTube actually a job when there's people you know doctors like Beth you she's being paid more than doctors have the same people's lives and like things like that and it's it's understandable it really really is but at the end of the day it's not like I'm here like I've I haven't been like right no I'm gonna do that and I haven't always been really bragging about it like it's I'm and I yeah I'm very very you know like no I am and I'm like completely aware of like the situation I'm in I'm very thankful for it so I think it's kind of like as much as they are kind of angry about like okay then my I suppose that she'll think yeah you know I I think though that everyone has their rights like I think as much like it does get bashed you have to understand where people are coming from and just know it's it's like TV it's like actors and actresses and to this day for a year just because they earn a little money people hate it like but people still watch it but people still watch it totally I still support it there's a whole thing around people thinking that work should be stressful and it's just accepting that work should be something that you don't enjoy but there's nothing wrong we're trying to push this there's nothing wrong with doing you know something that you love them with work being enjoyable and it doesn't have to be a hard grind like obviously work hard that's a good message it's doing something you love it's not going to be like hard work it's gonna be work but you're going to enjoy it you're gonna work even harder on it probably if you actually enjoy there's nothing wrong would you encourage people to do YouTube and social medias I think if they enjoy it it's something they enjoy I know people that would go oh my god I couldn't thing I think worse and then yeah there is but then there's there's it's the exact same with other jobs you know that like jobs people have had like a doctor I could not see only who SME no doctors not like me neither I hate people some people love that they look forward to going to work every day because that's something they enjoy that's what they want to be doing and that's that's the reason it's their job and for like exactly for youtubers the reason it's edge always cuz that's what they enjoy doing yeah and people need to understand that it's not okay like you said it's it's people think oh it's not stressful enough literally that's the people it was stressful enough of a job but that makes no sense why are we temple you can't do that job because you're enjoying it she like somebody working it's a put some work in the corner shop they just loved it like notes or you could not work here anymore because you enjoy doing but yeah you can't say that it's a new different for time people don't like it because it's different and because people are actually enjoying doing a job that they wouldn't have been doing before yeah and that's why people don't like it because it is it's really really crazy and I think it's it's such a personal thing and like you know a job somebody can enjoy it varies depending on the path and their hobbies and what they want to be doing no absolutely where where it can go wrong there I think would be yes like I know a lot of channels that have like come on and then failed because they've tried to do something up like outrageous get money from it like they're literally money minded and they're not doing it cuz they've got any love for it or enjoying it and that's all that it's focused on have to love to be and I want to do it and forward top-loading and creating and I think that's the main but you're always fighting it's the challenge that people who do enjoy it and I wanting to it for the right reasons at last yeah not carry on okay it becomes very obvious after a while people see through it yeah then 100 definitely well afraid we think you're amazing like your outlook on life like 16 is very easy I wish I had that when I was I'm looking forward to seeing where you go in it yeah we'll be watching thanks so much for coming on the podcast let's check out
