This transition music is from “Voice in My Head” by Coxa and its fire

As a female streamer, I feel blessed to have a friend that offered to be my mod to look out for trolls in the chat.
-
I made my first $0.01 today from Twitch ads! Woot, two days after making affiliate, lmao.

Me watching this stuff: My brain: Deleting memories in 24 hours ;-;

As someone who is just barely getting into the idea of streaming, this was so helpful and motivating and really makes the whole venture sound like something achievable. Thanks so much for your insight.
-
Not me watching a 40 minute video and not even realizing.You just influenced me to join twitch and be a streamer.I feel confident because of you
-
This is the realest, no bs advice I've ever seen anyone give on twitch, thank you😭
-
"You are your own competition, no one else is." Love this! Only thirty-ish seconds in and already enjoying this advice video as someone prepping to start streaming on Twitch.
-
I am a coding beginner wanting to share my process to encourage other people getting into coding as well. That's why I am thinking of getting into streaming and your video gave me the courage to kick start that. Thank you!
-
This was excellent and very informative! Thanks for this!
-
even as someone who's streamed for years, there was a lot of good info in this!!
-
I'm very new to streaming and didn't realize how much there was to consider just to get started. It really felt like I had jumped into the deep end of the pool with barely any swimming lessons. Everything you've said has been a tremendous help for me. Thank you for going over this because I was feeling overwhelmed before I watched your video. Now I'm off to binge watch the rest of your channel. 😅😊
-
I’ve been holding off streaming on twitch because I find it really intimidating, but your videos are really helpful and uplifting, and after watching them I’m going to try it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

You are your own competition NOT nobody else. -HeyShadyLady 2021

As someone who's just getting back into YouTube content creation and will be starting my Twitch journey next week, I can’t tell you how incredibly valuable this video and the information in it is. I was just homeless for 6 years and ironically enough starting my YouTube journey during that time. As of four months ago, I'm now in my own place and have bought some equipment and have space to dive in and learn how to stream properly. I've shared and gave so much praise to this video and downloaded it so I will ALWAYS have it as a reference in the future. You've done more for me than you know in helping me on my path and I want to thank you tremendously for doing so🙏🏿 Keep up the amazing work as it's providing a great service to those in need of guidance and inspiration 🙏🏿

This is SUCH a nice, informative video! I just started streaming daily a few months ago and I see my stream growing slowly but steadily and some of these things brought up here are things I need to think of constantly. Something I absolutely love about this video is how encouraging you are, I feel like some videos on how to get started on twitch are very "why do you want to do this" "rethink your options" just things that are very discouraging to even try to stream at all, not everyone is looking to do this as a fulltime thing but rather something to have fun with once or twice a week.

I'm keeping it simple, playing bingo on twitch for abt 30 mins a day while talking abt life. I'm almost 40 and i figure "chill mom" is the vibe I'm going for. "Cos I'm not like a regular mom, I'm a cool mom" lawl My goal rn is to make a little pocket change while doing something I enjoy and connecting to other ppl.
-
as someone who is now trying to start streaming after getting a ps5, this is super helpful especially the part where you mentioned that there's no competition. That really helps me and reminds me to just be myself and just vibe instead of stressing it so much.
-
I was surprised about the "calling out lurkers" pretty much every community I've visited interacted with is greatful for the lurks. I hadn't realized "calling them out" was a thing. Excellent video 👌
-
Your video is what I needed. You actually provided all the information I was looking for. I love your honesty and your chill way to explain how twitch works. This totally changed my prospective!
