👋 IM BACK! The Real Reason I Took a Break from YouTube  @EspenJohan
Uploaded November 2025 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
It feels good to be back! After more than three weeks away from YouTube and social media, I wanted to share the truth about my absence and what I learned during this much-needed break.

When you're deep in the "YouTube bubble," it can be easy to become addicted to constantly pumping out videos, often sacrificing quality for quantity. I realized this cycle wasn't healthy, and I needed to step back not because I lost the desire to create (well, maybe a little burn-out!), but to reset my creative focus.

Why the Hiatus?

➡Breaking the Addiction: Needed to step out of the cycle of constant uploading.

➡Recharging: Took a break from social media, not just YouTube, to fully reset.

➡The Trolls: I'll be honest, there's a lot of negativity out there. While the trolls don't affect me personally (I actually feel sorry for them!), stepping away from that environment was cleansing.

What's Next for the Channel?

➡I'm genuinely looking forward to making videos again, but this time it's going to be on my terms and when the creative desire is truly there. My focus is shifting:

➡Quality Over Quantity: Targeting 1-2 high-quality videos a week.

➡More Reviews/Tests: I have a bunch of new products ready to test out for you!

➡Collaborations: Looking forward to connecting with new creators.

🙏 A Huge Thank You!
