AGOURA HILLS,Watch Soul Online CALIFORNIA -- Becca Tilley didn't find love during her two seasons on The Bachelor.
But she did find her calling: documenting her life on camera.
The 28-year-old on Monday launched her own YouTube channel, which is an extension of her existing lifestyle and travel blog.
"One of the main reasons I love social media is because it is a way to show my life through photos and snaps and tweets," Tilley told Mashable. "The funny moments, the annoying moments and the reallycool moments. I wanted to start a vlog to bring people along in a way that felt like they are with me -- no matter what I'm doing."
But why now, months after Season 20 of The Bachelor has ended?
"There's a fear that comes with doing anything new," Tilley said. "I feel like everyone can relate to that. Not knowing how people are going to respond when you branch out, but I figured that people seem to care what I am doing on my other social channels and now my mindset is 'Why not, let's try it!"

"I know it's incredibly hard to believe (based on my Instagram), but sometimes I have bad days," she said. "I want it to be fun and funny and real. Mainly, I want it to be real and true to who I am."
To celebrate the vlog launch, she threw a party at -- where else? -- theBachelor Mansion in Agoura Hills.
The event, while lowkey, drew a lot of familiar faces, including former Bachelor contestant Chris Soules (Tilley was runner-up during Soules' Season 19).
"I'm so proud of our girl!" JoJo Fletcher, the most recent Bachelorette, said during the party.
The mansion transformed into a real-life display of the topics Tilley plans to feature on her vlog, including travel, lifestyle and beauty.
Each area had an activity for guests. There was a photobooth (the caption for images read "Betches love Becca Tilley"), a massage station and table where guests could get an "essential oils reading."

A big part of lifestyle vlogging is, of course, brand partnerships. Earlier this year, Tilley was one of the many celebrities -- both traditional and digital -- at BeautyCon L.A, an annual event where fans, creators, stars and brands gather to celebrate beauty, fashion and style.
"Everyone I meet is so kind and so willing to help and encourage," Tilley said. "Don't even get me started on the brands! I have so many moments where I think, 'How is this my life?' It's really, really cool."
Tilley's party featured brands that have plans to partner with Tilley or ABC's The Bachelor,including Kendra Scott (which gave guests jewelry) and Sugarfina (which handed out Bachelor-themed gummies).
Overall, Tilley hopes to bring her fans from other platforms -- including Instagram, where many Bachelor alums find huge followings after they're off the show -- to her YouTube channel and blog.
"I have had so much help navigating this new world," Tilley said. "It takes a village. [I have] so much respect to people who have built this from the ground up. I had a built-in following from the show, so it's humbled me a lot to realize how much work goes into this world."
