Hannah Wittons video, ‘History of Homosexuality,’ was recognized as a finalist in The Guardian and Oxford University Press Very Short Film competition in 2013, marking her early impact in educational content. Witton initiated her YouTube career in April 2011, quickly establishing herself as a prominent voice for young women with informative videos on sexual health and relationships. Her influence led her to moderate the Gender panel at Summer in the City in 2014. By November 2016, she was named one of eight Girls’ Champions as part of the BBC’s 100 Women campaign.
In May 2019, Witton expanded her platform with the launch of her podcast, Doing It with Hannah Witton. This interview-format podcast, covering sex, relationships, taboos, and bodies, ran successfully for over four years, concluding in December 2023. This period solidified Witton’s reputation as an authority on sensitive topics, engaging diverse audiences through long-form, intimate conversations across various media and reinforcing her position as a leading creator in educational and lifestyle content. In December 2023, Witton announced a strategic pivot for her main YouTube channel, shifting from primary sex education content to focus on broader lifestyle topics on her secondary channel, ‘More Hannah.’ Simultaneously, she established a new consultancy and project management business.
This venture leverages her extensive experience to support and mentor other content creators in developing and executing their digital strategies, marking a new entrepreneurial chapter in her impactful career as an author, broadcaster, and digital strategist.
