I Found Success on YouTube. Then I Walked Away
The Beginner’s journey Being a successful creator on any platform takes a lot of work. You toil away in the early days hoping to find traction, you tweet into the void, write for hours every day to no audience, film videos, edit, and publish to get a handful of views. It’s brutal. If you’re a creator of any kind, you know what I’m talking about.

It's Official! I've Earned Six Figures Writing on Vocal
I. Am... In Tears!!! It's not the emotion I thought I would be feeling when this day finally came but it's also not unexpected because I am a softie and I just didn't...I honestly didn't think this would happen three years ago when I sat down in the middle of lockdown, crying my eyes out because I was so broke and didn't know what to do. It was the night I decided to take Vocal seriously.

The Facebook Group Vocal + Assist
Many of us creators on Vocal Media belong to many Facebook groups for Vocal Media.

the inner dream: To be a cowgirl
These individuals are authentic cowboys. While I am not a cowgirl myself, I have always harbored a desire to be one. Fortunately, these gentlemen have graciously offered to teach me. Who am I, you ask? Well, let me explain. Growing up in Europe, I developed a deep fascination for horses as a young child. This led me to pursue horse riding lessons. However, as life often does, it presented obstacles that caused me to distance myself from these majestic creatures. Despite this, my dream of becoming a cowgirl persisted. Now that I find myself in the United States, I am eager to give it a try. Can anyone here provide me with guidance on how to fulfill my aspiration of becoming a cowgirl? Furthermore , I pose a significant question. In a world where it seems like everyone wants to be a cowboy, I have noticed that even millionaires share this desire. What does it truly entail to become one? When I initially started this journey, I naively believed it would be a straightforward endeavor. I even made a personal commitment to reward myself with an authentic cowgirl hat once I achieved this status. However, I soon came to realize that as a European attempting to become a cowgirl, the process is far more intricate and challenging than I had initially anticipated. There is immense pressure involved in this endeavor. Consequently, I sought guidance from an authentic cowboy instructor named Jon. Jon's occupation is quite distinctive as he travels extensively throughout the nation, imparting the art of cowboyism. One particular horse, Royce, will be our companion for today's ride. Specifically, Jon instructs individuals on how to effectively communicate and collaborate with horses. The most common blunder people make is being excessively kind and affectionate, resulting in dangerous situations where the horse gains dominance. Despite his tough exterior, Jon's approach emphasizes responsible horsemanship. . . .

The Solopreneurship Buzz! Solopreneurship is the new buzzword that everyone on the interwebs is obsessing about. But what exactly is it? It is a new movement where people are ditching the traditional way of running a business for a more simplified approach where the business is run by one person upon which the day-to-day rests. Think about the most popular companies and businesses we know today, the large corporations with thousands of employees. Solopreneurship is the opposite of that. One person, one product.
