0:53Now PlayingFor years, I treated my YouTube audience like an audience—people watching from the sidelines. And it worked! It built a multi-million dollar business and helped me share my mission with the world.
But recently, I had a shift in perspective. I realized that treating this platform like a community—a group of people I’m part of, not just speaking to—creates something far more powerful.
When I hit a million subs, I stopped reading comments because they were filled with noise: jokes about my ears or endless critiques. But now, I’m back in the comments, engaging, responding, and listening. Why? Because this isn’t just about me. A community thrives on dialogue, shared ideas, and collective energy. I don’t want anyone in this space to just sit back and take what I give them—I want you to challenge, question, and contribute.
This shift from audience to community isn’t just about YouTube—it’s about life. Building something meaningful means staying connected, staying engaged, and creating a space where people feel seen and heard.
Are you building a community in your life? Whether it’s online or offline, tell me what “community” means to you below. 👇
