How did Rachel Leary get so successful?

In an exclusive chat with heat, Rachel admitted that the key to YouTube fame is staying true to yourself.

She told us, "I think, the key to being successful on YouTube and I wouldn't actually even say that I'm at the peak of my success just yet, but it's just so important to be unique and just authentic to yourself. I feel like everyone says that, but honestly, it's so true.

"If you're so focused on a channel that's doing really well and you want to do what they're going to do... I feel like you need to find your own lane and what makes you unique. Why are people going to want to watch you instead of that channel that is doing the same thing?"

Rachel added, "Everyone gets bored so easily, everyone is looking for the new person to watch or discover and just be interested in. So you need to find your path that makes you unique and different and why people are gonna watch you and not be something that they've already seen before. It's so important to embrace you. No one else is you so let's do something different."
