We Need to Talk - Why I (almost) quit YouTube

Hey guys, it's time for some real talk! I truly (almost) quit Youtube, after 5 seasons of our cooking show, and over 60,000 subscribers! It took me a minute to be able to admit to myself the reasons why, and now I'm sharing it with you too. Also, going forward, things are going to change a bit around here so I need your help! Thanks for letting me spill my guts and for watching what I nicknamed as my "emo" video...haha! Love you guys!
