And my favorite moment of the whole year

2024/12/11 Edited to

... Read moreYou guys, I'm still pinching myself! When I shared last week that I finally got accepted into the YouTube Partner Program, the outpouring of love was incredible. It truly was my favorite moment of the whole year. I wanted to share a bit more about what this journey has been like, especially for anyone else dreaming of seeing that 'Welcome to the YouTube Partner Program!' screen! For what felt like ages, I was checking my status, and honestly, seeing 'Your re-application is under review' could be nerve-wracking. But I kept creating, kept learning, and kept pushing. Then, when that 'Congrats! You're a YouTube Partner' pop-up finally appeared, complete with all those celebratory graphics – the coins, the star, the heart with a dollar sign – I literally screamed! It's not just a screen; it's validation for all the hard work and dedication. One of the biggest questions I get is about the 'creator membership perks.' Beyond the sheer joy of joining, this means I can now start monetizing content. This includes things like ad revenue on my videos, channel memberships where amazing viewers can support me directly, Super Chat during live streams, and even the potential for merchandise shelves. It opens up so many new avenues to grow my channel and invest back into creating even better content for you all. It’s truly amazing to think about the possibilities for earning money through my passion. And let's talk about 'YouTube creator support.' Before joining YPP, getting direct help could sometimes be a maze. Now, as a partner, I have access to a dedicated creator support team. This is a game-changer! Whether it's questions about copyright, analytics, technical issues, or best practices, having direct access to experts who can guide me is invaluable. They also offer resources, workshops, and tools that help us understand our audience better and optimize our content for growth. It’s like having a backstage pass to all the information you need to succeed. My journey wasn't without its bumps, as that 're-application' screen showed, but I learned so much along the way. If you're a creator working towards YPP, don't give up! Focus on creating consistent, engaging content that you genuinely love. Engage with your community, pay attention to analytics, and keep refining your craft. The moment you see that 'Welcome to the YouTube Partner Program!' message, knowing you can now earn money and have that fantastic creator support, makes every single second worth it. I'm so excited for this next chapter and can't wait to see what we build together! My creator name is theroserundown, and I'm just getting started!

Book review of 📚Beartown Fredrik Backman ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I almost don’t have any words. There’s a reason Backman is probably my favorite author and it’s because of his ability to validate feelings through his stories. Everytime I read one of his novels, I feel understood and like I just got o
