8Key Interview Takeaways
1.) Do what you love. Rather than copying videos that are already out there, ask yourself, “What do I want to create?” Amber credits her success to the fact that her videos are something no one else has done before. Because she had no preconceived notion of what she was supposed to be doing, she created a channel that is entirely unique.
2.) Keep it spontaneous. While Amber is committed to posting on a regular basis, she doesn’t plan video topics in advance. Instead, she gets inspiration from what she feels like doing that day.
3.) Listen to your subscribers. Amber’s most popular videos were made in response to requests from her followers.
4.) Consider trending topics. When the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was trending, Amber took advantage and created a DIY video that taught viewers how to make a rhinestone robe on a budget.
5.) Keep dreaming. Amber had big aspirations to pursue a career in broadcasting, but even with a degree from Pepperdine, she struggled to find work in the field – or any field for that matter. It was only when she felt she had nowhere else to turn that Amber got a new dream and started developing her YouTube channel.
6.) Don’t promote something that you don’t truly love. Though Amber has been approached by several brands, she only promotes the ones she is genuinely a fan of.
7.) When it comes to equipment, spend your money on a good camera. Though Amber doesn’t use any lighting equipment and edits her videos with the program iMovie (because it was free!), she does recommend investing in a quality camera to make your videos look crisp and professional. She uses a Canon G7 X for both her videos and Instagram photos.
8.) Spread the love. Amber’s ultimate goal is to blow the stigma off what being a girl is like and empower women to live their most fabulous life, loving themselves and supporting each other.

Starting a YouTube channel is easier than you think⬇️ With countless SEO strategies being tossed around on the internet, it can be difficult to know how to start and grow a successful, high-earning YouTube channel. You don’t have to be confused anymore, though! As a YouTube producer and strategist, I have taught countless female YouTubers a simple growth strategy that helped them not only start their YouTube channels, but build a 6- to 7-figure income from their content. Because I am so passionate about helping women scale their income through YouTube, I have created a 39-page e-Book where I share the exact strategy I teach my students. This strategy is simple and easy to implement. And the best part... You don’t have to learn SEO to use it! If you’re interested in learning a simple, easy way to start and grow your successful YouTube channel but make money from it, comment “GROW” below, and I’ll send you a link to download!
The BEST investment she’s made for her YouTube channel? @risadoesmakeup is a YouTuber I had a chance to coach and get to know, and her story is truly inspiring! As someone who had already seen success on YouTube, she came to me to help her get out of the content creation rut. She struggled to come up with new content ideas, and she wasn’t 100% sure what her YouTube Analytics were telling her. Together, we were able to generate fresh, new content ideas, revamp her YouTube channel, and stimulate new growth! She was at 332K subscribers when she first came to me for help, and now she has 428K subscribers! Talk about growth! If you’re ready to get out of your YouTube rut, comment the word “BOOTCAMP” below, and I’ll send you a link with your next steps!
How can you make $10k/month on repeat? YouTube is hands down the best way to make money online, and I’ve cracked the code on doing exactly that! A lot of women struggle making money on social media or online. They work for hours creating amazing content, but they’re barely making enough to cover their costs, let alone survive on that income alone. I hate seeing that, and my mission for what I do is to help women like yourself (smart, talented, entrepreneurial) start making money online through YouTube! Not just any amount of money, though, but far more than you’ve ever dreamed possible. No worries though! You don’t have to figure out how to start growing and earning more money on YouTube on your own. This is exactly what I teach in my YouTube Bootcamp, even if you don’t have a YouTube channel yet, or if you’re stuck with the one you started (or abandoned!). There is a reason why so many of my students who complete the Bootcamp don’t just thrive on YouTube, they thrive in life…Because their YouTube efforts are bringing a ROI that is literally life changing.

This is how...👇🏻 As a YouTube producer and strategist, I meet so many women who are desperately trying to grow their YouTube channels and start their YouTube careers, but are struggling every step of the way and have yet to reach 1,000 subscribers. They’ve exhausted every SEO strategy available on the internet, and come to me feeling defeated and like a failure. And then... They begin applying my simple, no-fluff YouTube growth strategies, and start to see the views, the subscribers, and the $$$, start rolling in. I’ve helped countless high-achieving women, like yourself, crack the YouTube code, and scale their income, influence and impact with only 1-2 videos a week. I want to help YOU next!

Within 90 days she reached her 200K YouTube subscriber milestone! But she didn’t stop there, because she has blown past that, and now has 300K YouTube subscribers! And she is earning 3-4x more money from her YouTube channel than she was before working with me! Interested in tripling your income and growing your YouTube channel?
