Woohoo! 3,000 Subscribers on YouTube

It feels like only yesterday when I wrote about reaching 1,000 subscribers.

Thank you soooo much for all of your support. 

So many things have changed since I started my channel. I was unsure for a long time if I would even continue to make videos. It feel like it took forever for me to find my voice. These days, I'm focusing on moving my channel to a vegan lifestyle family channel.

Even though I will continue to make cooking videos, I will also keep up with grocery store hauls, product reviews, family vlogs, What We Ate Today, and more Vegan While Out (day in the life) type vlogs.

This vegan thing is a lifestyle, yo!  I really want to show it from a family perspective.

Thanks again!

If you haven't already, subscribe to my channel for vegan cooking videos and vlogs.

1,000 Youtube Subscribers!

Woohoo!!

I try not to get caught up in the numbers so much but damn this feels good!

In January of this year, I wrote down that I wanted 1,000 subscribers by the end of 2012. 

At the time, I had 49 subscribers and 873 video views.

Usually I crash and burn with goal planning because I don't make them realistic or measurable. I spend a lot of time building big dreams in my mind but very little time working on specific steps to make them happen.

This time around, instead of being too ambitious without a plan, I worked on those steps. I have to say, at the time,  I still didn't feel too encouraged. I started off with such low numbers, a terrible camera, and an iffy video format.

I stuck it out anyway and reached my goal 3 months earlier than expected!

This milestone has inspired me to set up some new Youtube goals for 2013:

*Upload 1 video per week-being consistent in this Youtube game is key!

*Respond to at least 95% of the comments- I plan to spend a great deal of time in the comments and encourage my viewers to respond to others as well. I will never pretend to know everything and want to build a fun community of plant-based eating. :-)

*Have FUN-try not to get offended by the rude, racist and ridiculous comments.  Delete them and move on. Majority of the comments are informative, supportive and sweet. I will focus my time on those!

*End 2013 with 5,000 subscribers-5,000! I just got nervous typing such a big number. Yikes!

I'm looking forward to doing a few collaborations with my Youtube friends, showing more delicious and affordable plant-based meals, and just having a good time building a community with those interested in eating a little more compassionately.

Thanks so much for all of your support! I really enjoy making videos and hope to bring so much more to the channel in 2013.
