I've discovered a few YouTube channels lately and I thought they were worth sharing!
I've made no secret of my poor artistic ability so it's incredibly satisfying and awe-inspiring to watch someone else draw something beautiful. I can't remember how exactly I came across Draw With Jazza but I watched one video and I was hooked - I watched all of his 'Character Design Session' videos in one sitting! He's so entertaining and idk I just like Australian accents, man.

Hannah WittonI discovered Hannah's channel after she collaborated with Lucy Moon during VEDJ but it wasn't until recently that I watched every episode of The Hormone Diaries. Hannah talks frankly, honestly and charismatically about sex, periods, feminism and books - I especially like her monthly favourites and admire her enthusiasm for all things fangirl-y (like Harry Potter ya feel me). I recently bought her book, too, and I think it's brilliant.

I've been watching Ladylike for a few months on the Boldly channel (previously Buzzfeed) but they have their own YouTube channel now and I am l i v i n g for it. I was gutted when Saf left as she was my favourite (along with Freddie!) but Devin has replaced her and I'm kind of okay with it. Ladylike is a group of five women who share and trial lifestyle challenges, make-up opinions and a bunch of body and sex confident content.

Another case of 'how was I not watching this before???' with Melanie Murphy's channel! One of her 'Food Diary Friday' videos popped up in my recommended list and I'm so into foodie videos so I watched it and then proceeded to watch every single video she'd posted in 2017. I just love her. I love her outlook on life and food and sexuality, I love her humour, I love how open and honest she is - you know when you find a YouTuber or blogger and you know you'd be friends with them if you met them IRL? They're always the best to watch.

Considering this post and the channels I shared in my other 'YouTube Channels I'm Loving Right Now' post it's pretty obvious what kind of channels I like on YouTube - anything lifestyle, feminist, cruelty-free and inspiring! Granted Draw With Jazza seems a little out of place in this list, but what can I say? I'm a multi-faceted human and all that.
I really love Hannah Witton and Melanie's channel too! xx
