okay... this was magical. I just wanted to pop in and say how wonderful this was. KZread is so washed out that it's hard to find innate, normal, human beings. I am turning 28 this year and have been on KZread for almost 10 years, this year was the year I came to terms that maybe it's time to try something new... just like you! This video gave me so much inspiration and hope to just follow my instincts and take a leap of faith. It's never too late to begin a new venture and we dont need to wait until we master something to put our toes in the water. As someone who will forever love watching KZread, I thank you for taking such a bold step and making a KZread channel. You are very wise and mature and I look forward to listening to your thoughts and enjoying your content. So many people in the comments have mentioned that this feels more like a TV series than a video. -ps your voice is so soothing!!! Sending you so much love and light and I hope you have the time of your life exploring new endeavors.

Awesome! So happy that your first video did so well! And amazing quality for just starting! I started a month before my 40th birthday (3 years ago) and slowly managed to grow my channel to 145k. I would have never believed it if you told me this 3 years ago. And life is different now. I'm a KZreadr. And everything I do, think, plan is about KZread. It gives me great satisfaction, so much creativity, passion and happiness. And being an "older" youtuber allows to enjoy without the stress of performing. Or at least its manageable. I an subscribing and would love to see more of what you do.

I feel so seen, I'm turning 33 in two days and it's just so nice to see more people from my age group experiment with KZread, especially bc I've started to cringe at my online presence ever since I turned 30, yet again i understand we have to go against it bc otherwise we'll lack representation and hence will feel even more alone or like we don't fit in. Keep up the good work! Greetings from a Chilean in Portugal.

Guilty of creating a video with a similar title 🙋‍♀️ It did way better than my usual videos so thanks Kat! 😁

I'm a 27 year-old female who also recently started a KZread channel. And I usually don't comment on the KZread videos I watch, but I resonated with so many things you said despite being in a different walk of life. With one video, you've pretty much inspired me to continue to strive and be a part of something. I find myself in a very similar situation: working from home for an unforeseeable amount of time. Actually it's more like unemployment for me, but I'm hoping it will be 2 years, max, But I don't really have full control over where life will take me at this point. And so with all this free time, I figured why not start a KZread channel documenting my life thus far? Bless you for validating my whim. And reading similar comments from other women adds to that feeling of being understood and being less alone. You have gained another subscriber here!

Yes, yes and YES!!!!! There's still hope for us old-timers yet, proving once and for all that it's never too late to start KZread. Say hello to your newest subscriber who happens to be 44, BTW!

I'm 29, and I too have felt that loss of community in my life (I've gone the work from home route and am very much a homebody myself!). It's somehow nice to feel like I'm not alone in that. Thank you for sharing, looking forward to more videos!

I was 37 or 38 when I started KZread. Felt cringe, still do... but I'm still here 100 million views later. Love this!

Ran to your channel to see if you had any other videos and was shocked to see that this was your first and only. Your video quality is phenomenal! I am 38 (birthday was a few days ago) and getting ready to launch my own channel soon and was very surprised to see this on my fyp. Good luck to us both, as well as everyone else who will be starting a KZread channel this year!

I'm almost 30 and here I am girl, go get it you're amazing!

Yes, yes, yes! Love it all! I am 38 and finishing off my PhD before moving to the other side of the world to start a whole new adventure. I keep wanting to start a Vlog to document all of this, but constantly worry that I'm too old or not good enough. But as you said, whilst I'm working I am usually watching vlogs of other people just going about their daily lives, grocery shopping or going for a walk and it's so comforting. Especially as an autistic girl who also gets overwhelmed by trying to make plans and maintain friendships. I've fallen in love with your channel and looking forward to what comes next. Have a great day!

Lovely to meet you, Kat, and welcome to the wonderful world of making videos and sharing them here ❤ this resonates with me a lot, having just moved to a city where I don’t know anyone (yet), and being in my 20th year of freelancing and making music. It’s got harder to find those real connections since 2020 and I definitely find KZread useful in providing a different kind of connection to people. Looking forward to your next video!

Super resonating with this! I'm 37, oldest of four sisters, introverted, crave my own space but then miss the daily social interactions of living in community ❤

When starting new KZread channel, the most important thing is to have some kind of strategy (for me it is using a little bit of famester from time to time). It does work wonders for me, and it is like really good for brand new channels to help you achieve those 1000 subscribers as fast as possible.

It definitely resonates! I've dabbled with KZread since 2007, but finally got serious with it in 2020 (I was 39 at the time). Glad to see your first video really take off!

Hello fellow 37 year old! I also work at home and usually “watch” KZread while washing dishes instead of listening to TV and it’s pretty much the same things of errands and cleaning I don’t know why either. This is a great first video and good luck with your channel.

Something amazing happens when you turn 50. You completely stop giving an eff what anyone thinks of you but you. Back that up 11 years and grab hold of it now. I was the same way, but a decade+ older. Wanted to start YT, but so afraid of what people would think of me. I waited 2 years before I finally did it, and I told NO ONE I knew, not even my family, for the first couple of months. But I grew anyway, and loved it, and finally wanted to share it with everyone. 2 1/2 years in, just hit 1K subs, and OH how I wish I was 4 1/2 years in! It's just so much fun. Yeah, it's a lot of work, but I've learned so much and have an amazing community and have met some amazing creators who have become friends. Just set up your phone and press record. Record yourself doing stuff around the house to get comfortable on camera. And then go! You can do it!

I JUST uploaded my first tik tok for my business and it nearly gave me a panic attack. I thank you for making this video. It was just the sign i needed! Good luck on your venture and please don't single handedly call me out again! LOL.

That intro was so entertaining :D instantly subscribed! I'm a 26 year old, small youtuber, with a ton of insecurities, difficulties talking to the camera and not a thick skin (at all) I relate so much to everything you're saying! Looking forward to more videos by you Sending lots of love and support

Super relatable and almost exactly how I feel at 27. I’ve been telling myself “oh this location has been shot at already, this xyz thing has already been done, people don’t care about this anymore, etc.” it’s all excuses. It’s excuses to not put in the hard work (but also joyful work!) of making videos and photos, whatever that WE truly like. I just put out my first video a week ago and I feel surprised people are even watching. So, cheers to new beginnings all around!! Also, your shooting and editing skills are phenomenal! Have you been doing creative work for a long time?

Thank you so much! I got into street photography during the pandemic and I feel like that taught me a lot about seeing the world through a more creative lens. But video editing is all new to me, which is why it's taking me so long to put out videos. (I think I filmed this one back in November-- yikes). But I'm getting better and faster and honestly loving it. It is joyful work, as you say. Congrats on starting your channel as well!

@@IndoorKatyou did AMAZING then! My first video took me 3-4 months to edit(knowing nothing) and it did not turn out anything like yours lol

Yes, this resonated like a gigantic tuning fork! I'm 38, living alone and have been working from home since Covid. I kinda like those things. But cumulatively it's hard. It feels like I'm having to claw my way back to other people - they aren't just there as part of the daily rhythm of life. Interesting to hear others talk about it and navigate this so thank you.

this video hit my entire thought process! i feel this exact way (i'm 25 btw). I love these comforting videos so much, i feel empty in my daily life bc I lost my creativity after the panini and college. I am so shy and not sure how to find what i like anymore. I love filming things but I never post it.

This was beautiful to watch. So crazy that one can grow to 10k with her first KZread video… blownnnn

Definitely resonated with me. Especially going from working in a kitchen with the same people for 5 years to working from home editing audio all day in my headphones alone for hours AND also moving from a small city to Chicago. I lost a huge amount of socialization that I didn’t realize I needed. I’m not alone! Just subbed!

wow, working in a kitchen with the same people for 5 years to working from home, i was working at restaurant for 3 years tnow i am at home and everything is different, we need those social env, here and there, thanks!

I totally feel you Kat! I just started KZread January 1st - Although I have dedicated myself to it and will push through, I sometimes think: I am too old (34)? Am I too quiet? Am I naive?? But becoming older I become more confident with myself and JUST DO WHAT FEELS GOOD, no matter if it makes sense. Wish you all the best and that you find joy in doing videos! Best from Germany, Sina

Hi Kat, I’m an older KZread watcher that also really likes watching small niches of life through this medium. I recognise the sense of connection and community that online options can create (I’ve experienced this with other networks too). I look forward to seeing more from you.

sweetyyyy yees this resonates COMPLETELY WITH ME. Im thinking everyday about starting my channel. Im 37, and struggling with home office, but at the same time I don't want to come back to work in an office (NO WAY). I recently moved to a small town and feel very much lonely. Community, this is what we need, and I feel and understand each day that this social medias especially youtube and instagram can be the best way to connect with people in person. People that resonate with each other, and would like to make new friends. Like art retreats, or just a coffee and chat. Anyway, thank you for sharing, that was brave and sweet.

Thank you for making this! Your editing and the story itself are amaaaaazing!

This is SO good. 👏🏼 very glad this found me. I’m soon to be 35 and feel like you are articulating things I’m experiencing but haven’t been able to express. Thank you for being here. Congrats on starting!

Oh I so appreciate the algorithm bringing you my way. I’m 26 and have been wrestling with the idea of starting a youtube channel. I very much enjoyed your video, from beginning to end. Thank you for sharing yourself with us ❤

I wouldn't think this was your first video. Great lighting, camera and sound. Great talk. Nicely done. subbed. Have fun!

I’m glad you started a KZread channel! I can relate to your reasons not to. You’re editing is so good and looks like a pro! And I think you made your first video your own and unique. I’m 44 years old and started a vlog channel last year. Introvert here as well and I stay at home a lot because of anxiety and stuff and can relate to wanting some sort of community. I think you’re channel is going to be great and you will have a like-minded community too. Blessings! 💕

Wow I’m only 2 minutes in and you are incredibly talented with filmmaking and storytelling! Can’t wait to see more from you Kat ❤

Ok, I'm not starting a youtube (maybe, I already made a whole new YT account this month - not this one-) at 37 but I thought about using streaming to keep people company. Doing crafts and stuff, maybe some body doubling (folding your pile of laundry with someone else doing the same or doing other chores just works better) and sitting there reading in a comfortable chair and talking about books. At least that's my plan.. I've got everything I need to start but.. ffs I just need to press that button to start. I'm definitely starting something new this year, just not in a sophisticated way you do it, I mean that as a compliment. Love your video and subscribed right away. You're doing great!

Wow as a 29 yo who just started a youtube channel I connected with this so deeply! Especially wanting to build community and connection which seems to get so much harder without flatmates post pandemic. Loved loved loved this, can't wait for the next one! Also EDITING; WHO KNEW IT WAS SO HARD AND TIME CONSUMING but also so creative and stimulating.

Editing takes AGES but the more I can geek out on it the better😅 If only ppl watching knew how much effort and love was poured into out videos❤

As a 35 year old small KZreadr this was so fresh and inspiring to watch! I hope this becomes a series, and I'm looking forward to seeing the next videos! I totally relate with everything you said - KZread is so fun to watch and to contribute to, and it's a great community to be a part of. Even though I am such a small channel, I've made some real friends through doing this, and feel more connected - which is the most valuable thing.

It’s resonate so much with me ! (35 years old, living alone, in France :-))❤

Creating a YT has crossed my mind for yeeeears, and in the end, after having all those thoughts you just shared... I never did. I love your bravery and I am following!

What a nice video! The production quality is amazing, following :)

As a fellow 30-something, I am SO excited to see where you go with your channel!! Thank you for being brave and putting yourself out there. Also your editing is already so beautiful, I can’t even imagine how wonderful it will be with time!

Hello from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia! You were suggested to me by the KZread Gods! Loved the video and looking forward to catching up on your channel. Mid 30s KZreadr here too, just sharing my life and general Mum/life content!

i started youtube as a 30 year old guy last year and DAMN this is such a better entrance than I had, really liked this. as other people have said, always great to see more people actually around one's age diving into new things. awesome start

I want to be friends with you! This is all so relatable. I am 33, just got out of a 7yr relationship, and now living alone with my cat, and have very few friends these days. Thanks for sharing this, it was a comforting video to watch.

Hi Kat! I'm 32 and I have been mulling over starting a youtube channel for a loooong time. Your video made me feel seen and has inspired me to create. I too am an introvert, work from home and am aspiring to live on my own. It's one of my biggest dreams. Can't wait to follow along on your journey. Your style is amazing and your personality is so fun!

Welcome to KZread! This resonated with me SO MUCH! I’m 26, turning 27 this year, and I always felt “too old” to do KZread. This video gave me a bit of reassurance to keep going! So thank you😌 I can’t wait to see more content from you!
