Early life and education

Taylor was born in Minnesota before moving to Arizona with her family. In Arizona, she attended Sedona Red Rock High School and later the University of Arizona, where she studied theatre arts. Her interest in entertainment and media led her to pursue a career in digital content creation.[5][6]

Taylor launched her YouTube channel in 2007, shortly after YouTube introduced its revenue-sharing Partner Program. She quickly gained a substantial following, amassing over 1.3 million subscribers and 267 million video views by 2024. Taylor's channel features a mix of lifestyle content, personal stories, and insights into her life as a mother.[7]

A Sucky Love Story & Shane Dawson appearance (2018-2019)

In 2018, Taylor released a memoir titled A Sucky Love Story: Overcoming Unhappily Ever After, which was published by Post Hill Press and distributed by Simon & Schuster. In the book, Taylor discusses meeting the man who was to become the father of her child who, unbeknownst to her, was a sociopath whose intentions were covertly sinister. She details in the book the domestic abuse, psychological torment and close call with human trafficking that she endured at the hands of her partner.[8][9] In 2019, Taylor publicly spoke on these experiences in a highly-viewed episode of Shane Dawson's conspiracy series on YouTube.
