(Newswire.net — February 10, 2022) — A lot was going on in 2016 that could distract and derail many people, but not Kenyunna  Woodard. Popularly known as Ken, this YouTube influencer has made a name for herself in the six years or so since she first launched her YouTube channel. She was a college student at Northwestern Community College in Mississippi when she set up her YouTube channel. She could never have known how far it was going to carry her, but it certainly has. People from all over the world now watch her videos and even take her advice on various topics. She has accumulated more than 1.8 million subscribers across all of the different platforms she operates under, and she continues to provide great content to those audiences.

The popularity of her channel has been so strong that Ken was able to leave her community college to pursue her YouTube career full-time. She has no regrets about doing so since it has helped spur the kind of growth she has seen with the channel. It is a place where she can inspire others, and there is nothing more precious than that in her mind. Thus, she feels that what she is doing to help people achieve their YouTube dreams is more impactful than what she could have done if she had simply remained stuck in the community college that she was in before.

How Has YouTube Changed Her Life?

She notes that getting to move from a small town in Mississippi to Houston, TX, has been one of the most significant changes that she has indicated. She says that there are many people that she has had the opportunity to meet because of her YouTube journey that she would not have if she had remained in small-town Mississippi. Fortunately, her career and earnings with YouTube have enabled her to have the lifestyle to afford to move to a larger town. From there, she can influence more people and meet more types of people that simply would not have been seen around the Mississippi area where she grew up.

What Did COVID-19 Do For YouTube?

COVID-19 has been a terrible pandemic that has negatively impacted the lives of countless people, but it has also been a boon for the online content industry. As callous as it might sound, it is the case that COVID-19 has pushed many people to stay indoors and watch YouTube videos more than they probably would have if the virus had not existed. Thus, from a career point of view, the lockdowns associated with COVID-19 have helped fuel the channel’s growth even more.

What Projects Is Ken Working On For The Future?

Ken is very excited to announce that she is jumping into the beauty industry herself. She plans to launch her line of beauty products in 2022. She feels that people take her advice and care about her opinions on YouTube, so she should market those talents and put out a line of her products that people may want to try out. She is anticipating big sales from this, and she is very interested to see what the feedback will be from the public when they have the chance to check out her products later this year.

What Advice Does She Have For Other Influencers?

YouTube influencers who are up and coming in the world of social media should heed the advice that she has to give out being true to themselves and trying their best to avoid the negativity that comes with many aspects of social media these days. She insists that positivity can outweigh negativity if we just set our minds to it. She recommends that people ignore the minor distractions and put out great content for their subscribers.
