About this episode

This episode documents the first three months of building a YouTube channel while managing a full-time job and family life.

This is Episode 1 of "How I'm Making It as a Content Creator" — a monthly series documenting the real, unfiltered journey of building a YouTube channel from scratch while working a full time job, raising a kid, and navigating life. In this episode, I cover the first 3 months, my current analytics, burning out after month one, merging gaming and philosophy into one channel, and why I'm still going despite the low numbers. I'll be posting one of these monthly. 📌 Inspired by @Renfail "How to Make a Living as a Content Creator and Streamer" series — shoutout to Ren: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZZ6iXOxUbMeW3iCeGAzrSIERHTbspC7d&si=11l2cpUEaVnU49MZ Shouts out to @FacelessZaide and his Dramaquest Series: https://youtu.be/Q8J-MEWWj80?si=uBPBvo64ICWfsT3y 🎮 MMOs covered: World of Warcraft, Guild Wars 2, Dark Age of Camelot, Everquest, and more 🧘 Topics: Non-duality, self-inquiry, mindfulness, awareness, philosophy 💬 DMs always open — drop a comment or reach out if you're on this same journey.
