Also included in the graphic were more surprising subjects like "Ayahuasca," a $4 originating from Amazonian cultures that can cause an altered state of consciousness, hallucinations, and vomiting.
McBroom is known as one of YouTube's biggest "mommy vloggers," starring alongside her husband, ex-NCAA basketball player Austin, and their children, Elle, Alaia, and Steel. Their family channel has over 19 million subscribers.
Catherine and Austin, who is 29, have been uploading to YouTube since 2016. Since then, their vlogs have been viewed more than 4 billion times.

Catherine, 30, even launched her own skincare line, 1212 Gateway, off the family's social media fame.

Some more odd categories that Catherine said she'd include on her solo channel were "Quantum physics" and "Hygiene." She included psychological and mythic topics like "Traumas," "Butterfly effect," "Numerology," "3rd eye," and "Messages in dreams."
According to Catherine, she'll also talk to her viewers about "Building character," "How to deal with hate, low vibration," and "Empath."
Catherine seemed to make the announcement spontaneously in her Snapchat video, which appeared to be recorded in $4 luxury sports cars. She prefaced it by saying, "I'm just going to spit it out."
"I wish I could just sit here and talk to you guys about life," Catherine said in the video. "Like there's just so much life going on in everyone's world, just so much going on."
