How YouTube Transformed My Life (80 subs and counting 🫶🏽) | Tortellini Soup | S1E28

I am filled with gratitude for this platform and for each person who takes the time to watch my videos. Some might see 80 subscribers as just a start, a small number, but I see it as a community, a foundation upon which we can build something great. I have faith that this is just the beginning, that this platform will grow, and one day, I'll look back on these early videos with a smile, proud of how far we've come.

Reflecting on this journey, I'm reminded of the concept I touched on in my previous video about "anonymous seasons". This concept is the premise behind Alicia Britt Chole's book Anonymous.

Like the unseen years of Jesus, these early stages of my channel are my time of hidden preparation—where I'm being molded and readied for greater things. This time might not have the glamour of high subscriber counts and viral fame, but it is invaluable for personal and professional growth.

Embracing this season of anonymity allows me to focus deeply on the quality of my content, on learning the ropes of this new craft without the pressure of a vast audience. It's a time for growth, for laying down the groundwork that will support everything that comes next.

As I continue this journey, I'm learning to trust the process, to understand that every season has its purpose, and that what's happening behind the scenes is just as important as the eventual outcomes.

It's a lesson in patience, in faith, and in the quiet commitment to forging a path that's true to who I am.
