Update!!!! I use a platform called Rumble to host my videos. I chose them because, at the time, they did not have suggested videos (auto-play) after my content. Unfortunately, they changed policies and now they do. So just be aware that any video that pops up after my lesson is NOT from my business. I contacted support and was told that turning off the auto-play option is coming in the future. So until then, on the videos for this course, I have added about 3 mins of blank space after the lesson ends so that you have plenty of time to pause/stop the video before a random one pops up. I am very sorry for this inconvenience.
