No staffed publication has ever printed a net worth figure for Kendall Rae. She does not have a Wikipedia article. Every number you will find was produced by a content farm, and they range from $1.5 million to $5 million.
One of those pages does cite its sources. It credits Wikipedia, Forbes and Business Insider. None of the three has ever published anything of the kind about her.
There is one genuinely hard source on her commercial affairs, and it is an unlikely one: the audited results of a company listed on the London Stock Exchange. Nobody writing about her appears to have found it.
A correction to this page before anything else
An earlier version of this article listed merchandise sales among her income sources and gave a net worth of $1.8 million.
The merchandise is not income. Her store states that 100% of proceeds go to the Higher Hope Foundation, which supports families of victims of violent crime. Counting it as personal earnings is a factual error, and this page was making it alongside at least two others.
The $1.8 million had no source. It has been removed.
The published figures
| Figure | Date | What it is based on |
|---|---|---|
| $1.5 million | 2022, modified 2024 | A CPM calculation on daily views |
| $1.8 million | This page, before today | Nothing |
| $2 million | October 2025 | A view count that was already two years out of date |
| $2.03 million | Labelled 2024 | Ad revenue estimates only |
| $2.5 million | April 2024 | A daily view estimate |
| $3.5 million | January 2026 | A table of monthly bands |
| $5 million | December 2023 | Credits Wikipedia, Forbes and Business Insider, none of which cover her |
Several of these contradict themselves inside a single page. One prints a $2.03 million net worth above its own estimate of $508,650 a year, which would be four years of gross income presented as a lifetime of accumulated wealth. Another prints $1.5 million above an estimate of $8,630 in the last thirty days, a rate at which it would take about a hundred and forty-five years to get there.
The October 2025 page is the clearest example of staleness. It builds its $2 million on “just over 599 million” views, a figure that came from reporting published in May 2023. The real number today is 855,937,987.
The one hard commercial source
Audioboom Group plc is listed on the London Stock Exchange and publishes audited annual results. It is her podcast network and advertising partner.
Its final results for 2024, published on 8 April 2025, name her directly. Under commercial developments it records multi-year partnership renewals with key creators, listing her alongside four other shows that together deliver more than eleven million downloads a month. A post-year-end note records renewed contracts including Lights Out, The Sesh and Mile Higher, a group accounting for more than fifteen million downloads and views a year.
Those download figures are combined across several shows, so they cannot be attributed to her alone. What the document does establish, in a regulated filing rather than a blog post, is a continuing multi-year commercial relationship, dated and confirmed by a public company.
That is the only auditable financial fact about her anywhere, and it tells you she has a stable podcast advertising business rather than how much it pays.
The audience, read today
| Channel | Subscribers | Total views | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kendall Rae, the main channel | 4.06 million | 855,937,987 | Healthy. About 367,000 views a day over the last fortnight |
| Mile Higher | 727,000 | 146,856,250 | Active, roughly 64,000 views a day at the last refresh |
| Lights Out | 547,000 | 58,212,652 | Active |
| Mile Higher Life | 195,000 | 8,517,352 | Dormant. See below |
The main channel has grown by about 560,000 subscribers in the last three and a half years, roughly 16%, while adding around 256 million views. Subscriber growth has slowed considerably but views are strong. She is not in decline.
One channel is a different story. Mile Higher Life, the vlog channel, is listed as an income source on several pages. It recorded between 7 and 249 views a day across the last fortnight, with one tracker estimating about one dollar of advertising revenue over thirty days. Its subscriber count has fallen from 207,000 to 195,000.
Four hundred and thirty-five videos, and almost nobody watching any of them.
What she actually runs
- Mile Higher Media. She is listed as founder and president, with Josh Thomas as founder and chief executive. The company describes itself as a Colorado for-profit corporation, though no entity of that name appears in the Colorado business register, which suggests a trading name or an out-of-state registration
- Mile Higher podcast. Launched around January 2018 and still running weekly. Episode 414 went out on 22 October 2026
- True Crime with Kendall Rae. Over 300 episodes, updated twice a week, and a 2024 Webby Awards honoree in the Crime and Justice category
- The Sesh, Lights Out and Planet Sleep. Further shows under the same roof, all listed as current
- Higher Hope Foundation. Launched September 2024. It is not itself a registered charity but operates under the fiscal sponsorship of an established one. It distributed nearly $100,000 in grants in its first four months
No Patreon or paid membership could be found. Her site lists only a free Discord and a Facebook group.
The CBD company that changed hands
Higher Love Wellness, a CBD brand, is listed as a business they own on several pages including reporting from May 2023.
In mid-2024 the company Extract Labs published a piece stating that Higher Love had joined forces with it, and quoting Josh Thomas saying he is now an owner of Extract Labs.
Higher Love’s own website still describes the two of them as the founders and sole owners. The brand contradicts its own partner’s account, and nobody writing about their finances has noticed either version.
A note on merchandise, since it keeps getting counted
Her official store carries a plain statement that all proceeds go to the Higher Hope Foundation to help victims of violent crime. The company’s own site phrases it as 100% of merchandise profits.
There are also several domains describing themselves as her official store which are not linked from anything she controls. One is built on placeholder text with dead links and sells Funko Pops. Treat those as unaffiliated.

So what is the number
Unknown, and this is one of the cases where the honest answer is genuinely useful.
She runs a media company with five active shows, a main channel approaching 4.1 million subscribers with 856 million lifetime views, a Webby honour, a multi-year contract with a listed podcast company, and a charitable foundation that has given away substantial grants.
What she does not have is a single published figure anywhere about her personal finances. No filings, no disclosures, no interview where she has given a number, no staffed reporting. The company is private, and in Colorado it does not even appear to be registered under the name it uses.
A page printing $5 million and crediting Forbes has not found something the rest of us missed. It has made it up and then attributed it to a magazine that has never written about her.
Frequently asked questions
What is Kendall Rae’s net worth in 2026?
There is no verified figure. No staffed publication has ever published one. Content farm estimates range from $1.5 million to $5 million, and several contradict their own income calculations.
How many subscribers does Kendall Rae have?
4.06 million on her main channel as of 27 October 2026, with 855,937,987 lifetime views. Mile Higher has 727,000 and Lights Out has 547,000.
Does she make money from her merchandise?
No. Her store states that 100% of proceeds go to the Higher Hope Foundation, which supports families of victims of violent crime. Pages counting merchandise as personal income are wrong.
Is the Mile Higher podcast still going?
Yes, weekly. Episode 414 was published on 22 October 2026.
Has she written a book?
No book could be verified. A Goodreads author record under the same name carries no biography and no connection to her, and is most likely a different person.
A last thought
Of all the pages we have rewritten this week, this is the one where the genre’s carelessness does the most actual harm.
Three separate sites, this one included until today, were counting money raised for the families of murder victims as a creator’s personal income. That is not a rounding error or a stale subscriber count. It is the opposite of what the money is.
Checking took one click on her own shop. For a comparable case where the facts had quietly moved and nobody looked, see Bailey Sarian.
