Tanya Burr rose to fame as one of the UK’s original YouTubers. As part of the Brit Crew, she quickly became one of the most recognisable faces on the platform alongside Zoella, Alfie Deyes and Marcus Butler. I’ve always been fascinated by creators like Tanya and their ability to captivate millions of people from their bedrooms, so I was really excited to have her on Great Company. In our conversation, Tanya explains why she started YouTube and how quickly it turned into a career. She reveals how her self-worth became tied to how she was perceived online and why, after a very public break-up, she stepped away from YouTube in 2019 to rebuild her life away from the spotlight. In this episode, Tanya shares: Her favourite memories of the Brit CrewLiving with anxiety and how she’s learnt to manage it Why she quit YouTube in 2019 Rebuilding her life after a public break up Dating in her thirties and how she knew her boyfriend Dan was the one Most people would struggle to walk away from something as successful as Tanya’s YouTube career. But she did. She chose herself and her courage stayed with me long after our conversation ended.
