Description
Welcome to the DMF! I'm Justin Younts, and today we're diving into the world of YouTube monetization. Is there something you want to accomplish on YouTube that you haven’t done yet? Many creators feel that way — including Kris Keppeler, who joins me to share her own goals and experiences in content creation.
Kris talks about expanding her platform through writing a book, growing her podcast, and creating new forms of engaging content. She’s driven not just by monetization, but by a deep desire to tell meaningful stories and shine a light on issues she cares about, including women’s rights.
She also shares how her love for animals helped her cope with childhood trauma, adding a powerful emotional foundation to the stories she tells. For Kris, content creation isn’t just a career — it’s a way to connect, heal, and inspire others.
We discuss the importance of finding a personal routine, whether it’s caring for pets, meditating, or carving out time to create. Kris emphasizes that everyone has their own rhythm, and the key is working with your natural flow, whether you're an early riser or a night owl.
If you’re navigating the challenges of YouTube growth and monetization, this episode is full of insight and inspiration. Join us as we explore the realities of being a creator and the joy that comes from sharing your passion with the world.
