Appreciating the Journey That Led to Living Out My Childhood Dream I uploaded my first YouTube video in 2009 not knowing that decision was going to change the rest of my life.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Cassey Ho (@blogilates)   I made up the screen name “Blogilates” because I simply meshed together 2 things I liked: blogging and Pilates. I uploaded my first workout video because it was a going away gift for my 40 POP Pilates students who wanted to still work out with me after I had to move away. I wasn’t trying to start a brand, get rich, or be famous. In fact, back in those days, you couldn’t even make money on YouTube. Brand deals and Adsense were not even a thing. It was simply a place to connect. Thank you VidCon for inducting me into the Hall of Fame What an HONOR, but especially alongside legends Michelle Phan, Philip DeFranco and Markiplier! Can’t believe I attended my first vidcon back in 2012 as a regular attendee waiting in line to take a pic with Harley of Epic Meal Time (who doesn’t love watching people construct absurdly large towers of high calorie foods then consuming it like a beast who hasn’t eaten for weeks?), then came back as a full-on YouTuber speaking on panels in front of thousands, then yesterday, inducted into the Hall of Fame? I have to really force myself to stop and look back in order to appreciate my journey, because too often I’m moving too fast, only looking forward, and thinking about everything going wrong instead of what has gone right.

A lil’ snippet outside of my founder/CEO life Literally was set on wearing a whole ‘nother dress to this event until I was about to walk out the door and Sam told me it was completely see through why WHYYYYYYYYYYY Anyway, a lil snippet of youtuber/content creator life outside of my day-to-day Popflex founder/ceo life.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Cassey Ho (@blogilates) Everything started with one fateful Pilates video that I uploaded to YouTube in 2009. The universe has its way of steering you in the right direction, no matter how winding, if you’re just willing to listen to your heart. Literally was set on wearing a whole ‘nother dress to this event until I was about to walk out the door and Sam told me it was completely see through… Cassey{authorlink}https://www.blogilates.com/blog/youtube-brandcast-2026/Blogilates The official blog of Cassey Ho https://i0.wp.com/www.blogilates.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/fav-1.png?fit=32%2C32&ssl=1

A snapshot of life lately…

A snapshot of life lately… Hey guys! Life. It’s been…absolute insanity. Like the really good kind of insanity but the really intense kind of insanity. The kind that you dream of, but the kind that will break you if keep going like this. Yesterday I was honored as one of Youtube’s OG Asian American creators, alongside some iconic legends. I was supposed to prepare a speech…but in a room full of people who I had once admired from afar who then came to be my real-life friends, I decided to speak from the heart instead. Swipe a couple to see a lil clip of my speech!   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Cassey Ho (@blogilates) My life and my career today would not be what it is without that first 10 minute Pilates video I posted on YouTube in 2009. Isn’t it wild how the universe works? Pilates, YouTube and you guys brought me back to my childhood dream of becoming a fashion designer…something I was told I’d NEVER succeed at…and yet here I am, living the most intense version of my dream. So intense that it’s about to break me. After the gala, Sam and I had to tend to some real world duties. In my literal evening gown and heels, we went to go check on a paint job (we’re in the middle of moving into a new office for POPFLEX) to make sure the contractors did their work. It was then that I asked Sam to shoot me amongst the construction because it was a perfect representation of us TRYING to harmonize the extremes in our lives: The contrast of dream and reality… The juxtaposition of elegance and chaos… The push and pull between a thriving business and a balanced life that does not exist… This is us right now. Truly thrilled. Yet truly exhausted. I’m grateful for all of it, and for what’s to come. But I know in my bones that if I don’t slow down I will break down. Hey guys! Life. It’s been…absolute insanity. Like the really good kind of insanity but the really intense kind of insanity. The kind that you dream of, but the kind that… Cassey{authorlink}https://www.blogilates.com/blog/a-snapshot-of-life-lately/Blogilates The official blog of Cassey Ho https://www.blogilates.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/fav-1.png
