I asked Anna Bey a question most creators avoid: what's it really costing you to run a YouTube channel?
Her answer surprised me. Anna scaled her team from 10 people down to 2 — and says it's the best decision she's ever made, even though her revenue dropped by roughly half! We get into the brand deals she turned down, and the anxiety that built up for years — the dread of sitting down to record when she had nothing left to say, the pressure of hitting publish on a schedule that never let up, and the moment she knew something had to change.
