Hannah Lisa Witton is an English YouTuber, broadcaster, and author. She creates video blogs and informational content which is mostly based around relationships, sex and sexual health; liberation and welfare issues; literature; and travel.[2][3]

Witton's debut book, Doing It, concentrating on sex and relationships, was released for European readers on 6 April 2017 and in the US on 3 July 2018.[4][5] Her second book, The Hormone Diaries: The Bloody Truth About Our Periods, was released in June 2019.

Early life and education

Though she grew up in England, Witton lived in Austin, Texas for one year as a child. She is Jewish.[6] Her godfather is the actor Toby Jones.[7] She attended Loreto Sixth Form College in Hulme, Manchester, and then the University of Birmingham where she studied a degree in History and was especially interested in sexual history. Witton's video History of Homosexuality was a 2013 finalist in The Guardian and Oxford University Press Very Short Film competition.[2]

Career

In 2017 Witton won a UK Blog Award,[8] and in 2018 a Blogosphere Award as Vlogger of the Year.[9] Witton is the sole director of Snake People Media Ltd incorporated on 18 March 2016.[10]

YouTube

Witton began creating YouTube videos on 17 April 2011 as Hannah "Girasol".[11] She is known for her videos helping young women with sexual health and relationships. She moderated the Gender panel at Summer in the City 2014.[12] Witton was named one of eight Girls' Champions as part of the BBC's 100 Women campaign in November 2016.[13]

Hannah Witton was one of the three members of the internet-based reading club, known as "Banging Book Club". She and two colleagues, fellow YouTubers Lucy Moon and Leena Norms, read one book every month and then discuss the book together on a podcast published on iTunes, SoundCloud, and (partially) Witton's YouTube channel. They sometimes invited guests to their podcast. The chosen books included themes related to sex, relationships, and feminism.[14] The podcast ended in January 2019.[15]

Witton started her second YouTube channel, "More Hannah", at the end of 2019 to post lifestyle and productivity content. Her main channel has featured series like The Hormone Diaries where she documented her fertility journey in trying to conceive.

On 5 December 2023, Witton posted a video on her main channel announcing she was going to quit producing sex education content.[16] The final video on her sex education channel was published on 26th December 2023.[17] She has continued to post lifestyle content on her second channel and runs a consultancy and project management business providing support to other content creators.[18]

The book concentrates on sex and relationships including personal experiences,[4] and won a SitC 2017 award.[19] In 2019, Untendrumherumreden, the German translation, was published.[20]

Her second book, The Hormone Diaries: The Bloody Truth About Our Periods, covering experiences of menstruation and education around it, was released in June 2019.[21]

Podcast

In May 2019, Witton launched a podcast Doing It with Hannah Witton focusing on sex, relationships, taboos and our bodies.[22] The podcast follows an interview format where Witton invites a guest to talk about a topic where they have expertise, in conversation. The podcast is distributed by Global, and was nominated in the podcast category in the 2020 Global Awards. It ended in December 2023.[23]

Witton presented the ITV2 sex and relationships show Love Fix in February 2016.[24]

Witton was a guest presenter for BBC Radio 5 Live on issues to do with sex and relationships,[25] and has been a guest on various BBC radio talk segments on many occasions. Witton had a weekly radio show The Hannah Witton Show and co-presented an episode of The Calum McSwiggan Show on internet radio station Fubar Radio,[26][27] and has presented the BBC Radio 1 segment The Internet Takeover.[28]

Personal life

After a bad flare of ulcerative colitis, Witton underwent ileostomy in January 2018.[29][30] In December she was a panelist in the "Sex and Science" discussion for the Yogscast Jingle Jam charity.[31]

Witton married Daniel Leadley, older brother of fellow YouTuber and singer-songwriter Bethan Leadley, in September 2020.[32] Witton gave birth to their son on 30 April 2022.[33]
