The Heart Behind BYSUJI: My Homemade Journey
Some stories begin in a big moment — ours began quietly, in a small home, with a woman who had dreams bigger than the life she was given.
I was born in a lower-middle-class family. I was bright, educated, and full of ambition, but life didn’t always give me the chance to chase the things I truly loved. After marriage, the responsibilities of running a household became my world, and somewhere along the way, my own dreams were quietly placed on a shelf.
I supported my family in every way I could. But deep inside, I still longed to explore my passions especially cooking, which had always been my joy. I remember moments when I had to depend on others even for my own small needs, a quiet reminder that I longed for independence.
Then one day, a door opened for me. It came in the form of a glowing screen and a platform called YouTube.
It was never about fame or numbers. For me, it was about finding a space where I could show what I was capable of and prove, mostly to myself that I could stand on my own. I started small, creating lifestyle vlogs that shared the everyday rhythm of a housewife: managing the home, caring for my children, and cooking dishes close to my heart.
These videos weren’t just recipes or tips; they were little windows into my life. To my surprise, people connected with my honesty, my warmth, and my way of doing things. Slowly, I began to feel something I hadn’t felt in years — a spark. The spark of a woman who had found her voice again.
