This is my why. I want to be able to support my family. I'm a single mom. My son has multiple disabilities. It is extremely hard to maintain a "normal" job and to be able to provide the time and attention my son needs. I also want to share my knowledge about my passion for crafts. I finally started a craft channel about 10 days ago, I have 2 videos uploaded so far. I really appreciate all of your helpful tips and knowledge.

"Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn." That's beautiful.

[ITSALLADREAMTV]

Everyone stay positive! Starting is the hardest part! I’m supporting all of you guys out there!

[markjones]

I want to see people draw closer to God and have a deep personal relationship with Him!!!

[AaronShu]

Thank you Think Media team for giving me the tools & courage I needed to punch fear in the face, start messy, and launch my YouTube channel. Still got a long way to go, but thank you for setting me on that path.

[adventureswithjoyceandmatt]

So I really believe the Lord brought me to this channel as my husband and I are literally starting our venture in You Tube. I definitely have felt overwhelmed by everything to learn, but this video just gave me so much peace and focus in where to start. Looking forward to finding all the videos in this series and starting our strategy. Thank you for sharing this.

[bellacelina]

I started my YouTube chanel, i work hard as I am doing everything myself and English is not my 1st language. Watching your chanel gives me that power and energy to push more. thank you for the knowledge you share with us. Bella

[annastayziaa]

Your story, your family story, and your “why” had me tearing up at the end. 🥺♥️ thank you for sharing.

[TheBonaFideChannel]

Thanks for the encouragement Sean! Your content has been such an inspiration for our channel! Anybody else??

[mudbaby]

Thanks for sharing your heart. You’re good people. People don’t care what you have to say until they know that you care. You prove this with your energy and your thought process. You have the heart of a teacher. It’s appreciated.

Sean has changed so many peoples lives with his content

[xDoomerz]

My why is to get out of this job I hate. I want to give my family a better life and want to have overall a stable good life in my future. I want to build a nice community online with people just like me! The biggest reason though is to make someone's day. I dont care who it is as long as i make someone laugh after a bad day and spread the vibe i've accomplished my goal! This... This right here lights a spark in me man!

[CarlosSotomayor]

Think Media channel has definitely got me out of my comfort zone to start a Real Estate channel. Thank You to the team at Think Media!

[KeyannaWeaver]

Literally just about teared up listening to you talk about your story with your wife. I'm so sorry you guys had to go through that and I hope she's doing amazing today. Such a powerful testimony to just learn where you started and see how you evolved to where you are now. Thank you for getting vulnerable and sharing!

[DallasJyl]

Just revived my old YouTube channel. Trying vlogging about photography and filmmaking. Really enjoying it so far!

[kevinta]

Your "why" story was really touching man. It's also reminding why I'm starting my own channel.
I wanted to bring value to society with what I know, which is languages. So I'm trying to make it funny language challenges to motivate people to learn languages and entertaining them in the same time.
The beginning is full of self-doubt and hesitation, but you've just strengthen my beliefs for Youtube to work out. Honestly, thank you!

[jackiesdaughter]

I have been watching so many of your video’s and finally found the courage to start a channel this year. This is so helpful again!

[blissoneness]

Hi Sean. I really appreciate your authenticity and sharing your message with us. I am in the process of starting a Youtube Channel and I'm going "all" in. I married my husband at a very young age, 17, and have encountered so many difficulties in life. I have overcome those problems and have found joy in life, and financial success. I have 3 children and would like to start a channel to inspire others that they can succeed and accomplish their goals, regardless of what life throws at them. Thank you and take care.

[maureengreer]

Good job, Sean, I too am Irish. Just starting and appreciate your personality, fortitude and help
