She uploaded her first YouTube video at age 13.
7 years later she is one of the top YouTube creators, with over 10 million followers on that platform alone.
She is an author, singer, brand ambassador, influencer, speaker . . . and she’s 21 years old.
I first heard about Bethany Mota when I saw a massive swarm of fans flocking to her at VidCon a couple of years back.
Then I kept hearing about her when I learned about the biggest channels on YouTube.
So when I finally met her last week to record the podcast, I was curious about what she’d actually be like.
I was blown away by how smart, thoughtful, and wise she was.
Not only has Beth created an incredible career for herself at a young age, she has overcome cyber-bullying, struggles with body image, finding her voice, and creating true fans.
As she told me in our interview, learning to love and accept herself (the struggle of all teenagers) while filming the entire process for the world to see has been an incredible challenge and teacher for her.
The woman I talked to during this interview is no longer afraid of failing — she is focused completely on being in service, following her passion, and sharing her light.
I’m excited for you to learn things you aren’t expecting from Beth in Episode 502.
