We’ve been getting a lot of requests for this one! And this week’s guest definitely delivered, because this is part one of a two-part conversation. We had such a good time and went so in-depth, I wasn’t even focused on the time. YouTuber Natalia Taylor gives us the tea on her entire YouTube career and the secret to building a fiercely loyal audience, how to make a YouTube comeback and double your subscribers in the process, and so much more! “I’m constantly growing and changing, and that also applies to my perspective on situations in the past.” Natalia has been on YouTube for almost 5 years now. In that time she’s shared deeply personal stories and pop culture with her audience in very entertaining and authentic ways. When she started she was studying to become a doctor but dropped out of college to pursue modeling. She wanted to use YouTube as an outlet and personal diary to talk about her behind-the-scenes experiences being a model. She saw success fast, one of her first 5 videos she posted went viral and put her on the map. But the story she told about getting kidnapped when she was 7 years old, made her career and was the catalyst that shot her channel up to 700k subscribers! At almost the height of her career, when she had 730k subscribers, she disappeared. And it was going to be permanent. She quit YouTube, went back to a regular job and a simpler life which she enjoyed. But something was pulling her back, and with the encouragement of her friends and family, after a year had gone by, she came back and took her channel in a new direction. It was tough reviving her channel and she lost a ton of subscribers, but she came back in fine style and now has almost 1.8 million subscribers! In this episode, Natalia talks about her early viral hits and how they affected her and her YouTube career, how she got selected to be a member of the Tana Mongeau collaboration channel, Trash, and her experience going through that, why she left YouTube and how she made her comeback and doubled her subscribers, and more.
