Raise your hand if you’ve been down a YouTube rabbit role in the past week, or month… or day?

You know, that vortex of when you open up a YouTube video to learn how to remove a tick from your dog or to see what Nancy eats in a day-- and then all of the sudden you’re watching celebrity mansion tours or how to make DIY tie dye sweaters.

Ya… We’ve all been there. And i would be remiss if i didn’t tell you how much I LOVE YouTube. It’s got so much great content to binge on and I’m always learning or being entertained by youtubers when I open the platform.

That’s why I’m so thrilled to bring you this episode with Jennifer Zhang.

She's a young 20-something year old who started a DIY YouTube channel when she was 15 and grew it big enough that she was able to convince her parents to let her create content full time rather than pursue  a “real job”.

With more than 2.5 million subscribers, a recently launched merch line that’s flying off the shelves, and now with her debut into the music industry-- Jen is a true visionary of her digital era.

One glimpse at her channel and you’ll know why she’s reaching the masses. She’s creative, crafty and totally hilarious.

Today, you’re going to hear from Jen on how she took something she simply loved doing when she was little and has turned it into a full time job.  Proof that whatever you want to create IS possible in this lifetime.

Let’s jump in to this episode with Jennifer, from JENerationDIY
