Speaker 1: bayone screaming from the rooftops Nober one. It's the negative
Speaker 1: Nancy in your head. I know, easier said than done, right,
Speaker 1: but seriously, this self deprecating jugs and endless what it's

Speaker 1: and perfectly filtered selfies. She started that, like the rest
Speaker 1: of us, upliving videos to YouTube just for fun. She
Speaker 1: was nervous and secure and constantly questioning herself. Remember that feeling,
Speaker 1: the one way you think your voice is too loud,
Speaker 1: your jokes are too cheesy, and your whole life is
Speaker 1: a disaster in slow motion. That was Emma. But she
Speaker 1: didn't let it stop her. She kept creating, kept learning,
Speaker 1: kept hustling, and slowly but surely, she built the massive
Speaker 1: following of loyal fans who connected with her authenticity. She
Speaker 1: didn't hide her struggles, the bad days, the self doubt,
Speaker 1: the occasional existential crisis. She shared them all, and that's
Speaker 1: what made her so relatable. She showed us that it's
Speaker 1: okay to not be perfect, to mess up sometimes, and
Speaker 1: to still be wildly successful. Now she's a Google brand
