- finding inner peace in a world full of chaos
we all have a million things we want to get done - responsibilities at work, personal goals, spending time with the people we love, and maintaining our sanity. it can seem nearly impossible to feel at peace when we have so much to do. we often rush throughout tasks because our time is so valuable. in this chit chat, I talk about how to maintain your inner peace & prioritize self love no matter what your external environment looks like.

nah bc why is it that every time u post a video it is for the EXACT emotions im experiencing at the time. like it’s scary perfect timing…
Because everything we are experiencing you can be sure that someone is experiencing it too on earth. All connected ❤️
Same here literally was feeling overwhelmed rn scrolled amd seen this thumbnail
IKR I feel the same
it was a full moon yesterday and the energy from it was very strong so yes I feel u, everyone is definitely feeling similar when it comes to life situations!
No literally 😭
Wow, I was just thinking this during my meditation session. I’ve spent my adult life hustling and there is no end in sight. I became more aware of how much I’ve neglected myself. The only time we stop is when we are forced to by getting sick. Mental health and physical health are so intertwined.
When I got covid a few weeks ago, I felt like crap but it was amazing cause it was the first week in a loooooong time that I didn't have ANY expectations from myself, so sad that's what it took to have a "relaxing" week
I love what you say about being INTENTIONAL with our time and energy. People think I'm crazy when they find out certain things about me and how I spend energy: I don't watch shows. I don't watch the news. I don't go to restaurants. I only go to a few select concerts/events/nights out each year. I don't do any calendar scheduling outside of business hours (meaning if you ask me on a Saturday when we can hang out next, I'll get back to you on Monday. I am not on my phone when I'm at the house. I don't think certain things are worth the drive and the traffic/parking stress to even go, and so on. But I am really proud of my discernment and how particular I am about what I do, when I do it, etc!
love this
Good sis, you’re tapped into the collective fr. It’s the way that you’re able to verbalize your learnings/feelings in a way that is so clear FOR ME.
This makes me so happy, I'm glad this resonated!❤️
I love how, despite the message you want to sent, you also acknowledge that this isn’t always possible for everyone. Thank you for that. A lot of people on the internet keep giving advice and “answers” to certain problems based on their life/ privileges and totally forget that it isn’t that easy for everyone.
Yeah all of us are dealt different cards in life so I can't even pretend like I can understand everyone's situations
i love these chill videos of you just sitting down and saying what's on your mind with minimal editing. it feels more personal like i'm chatting and receiving advice from a friend
Thank you I really enjoy making these❤️
I quit my job 2 weeks ago with savings and a TH-cam plan/ ebook strategy and yes I completely agree about finding peace within because I thought releasing the job would release the stress but it’s all internal. I caught myself shifting the anxiety to my passion and that’s not sustainable. I feel like today was my first day where I actually enjoyed random tasks and didn’t worry about the future.
What’s a TH-cam plan ebook ?
My current job stresses me so much because I do more than I’m required to do. It’s very frustrating because my energy is being taken every time but thanks for the reminder of me being controlled of my own energy.
"you have control over how you treat yourself" yesssssssss, learning to treat myself well, it feels so weird!
Another great video! Thanks Lynette, I left my job at AWS last week to do TH-cam full-time.
I still remember the day you posted your job quitting video! Since then, your content has been very helpful in getting me into the mindset of prioritising our time, energy, and doing what we love 🙌
Congratulations. I wish you much success! You’ve got this❤
lol tf. I'm sitting here thinking you had a small channel. You have 56k. 😂😂
Congratulations I’m so proud of you Lucy! Wishing you all the best with your journey on youtube and I know that you can do/be/have anything if you put your mind to it! God bless 😊
I’m surprised you haven’t started a podcast yet. your information is always sound & beautifully executed.
I second this.
Thank you, the audio from my vids are available on podcast platforms now! I will start linking in the description.
very true lol she has one of those videos where u can be doing your daily routine and listen in on it
I so agree with this. I've been actively job searching for the past 5 months (and lost my job 8 months ago). When I lost it, I spent 3 months soul-searching, and when I figured out what career direction I want to take, I started actively applying for those roles. I never want to work a job just to pay the bills because I've done that my whole life, and it was so depleting energetically speaking. After work, I'd need to ''escape''. However, when you're so clear on the type of job you want to do, it takes a little longer to secure one. What I didn't realize is that besides the need to survive (pay bills, buy groceries), there is also the need for the soul to survive. If you work all day doing something you don't really care about, it negatively impacts your mental health. So you have to choose between your body surviving or your soul surviving. Capitalism is a really fucked up system. Lucky for me, I have a freelance client and family members who are helping out in the meantime. It's stressful, but I'm not willing to kill my soul for money ever again.
Wow, when you said, that maybe you just need rest, it touched me so much. I am constantly trying to improve, to expand, to create, and I just need to rest and allow that deep rest for a long time now. It is so difficult, when we are constantly being pushed to be productive in every aspect of our lives. Rest is so beautiful and nourishing. I wish everybody a very restful day
after the full moon yesterday and having my period I’ve been going through the wave of emotions but Ik I’m in control and a magnet for my all desires and that everything I want is already mine and otw to me! thank u for making this I really appreciate you sm girl seriously GOD BLESS U!❤
Love the message! For me, overwhelm always comes with too many sets of expectations, the more I can sit down and think through them, the more I can focus on what really matters and prioritizing those and being present for them
I’ve only ever done customer service and warehouse jobs and I just got so tired of the cycle- work somewhere a couple months/a year burnout, spend most of rest of money while searching for a new job, repeat repeat repeat.
Went to a temp/ staffing agency and while I’m still on temporary assignments OMG it is SO freeing like having someone else send resumes and applications on my behalf!
They call me w assignments, and I don’t need to worry about wasting my time applying for these jobs that are actually closed/ were always gonna be internal hires.
I’ve done lots of different tasks, met cool people and I only had to fill out the paperwork once (and will eventually again, once I find one I want to stick with)
Take advantage of all the services available! Life is already hard enough. And outside of job searching, public libraries have a lot of cool services too like many offer free seeds, discounted museum passes, and so much more!
when dealing with stress and burn out i took a course where the teacher said "humans need to rest more than they need to be active".
I had to watch this twice because it was so touching and exactly what I needed to push me to prioritize my time and protect my energy and to just be okay with taking a step back when I need to. Thanks for this Lynette❤️
love this
I can really relate to your frustration with how the world is built, especially because it just induces overwhelm. Only today my friend and I were talking about living softly & how we're going to use time management and energy regulation to help with that - yet the frustration comes when I think of others who aren't able to do this for whatever reason. It's so powerful & showing of your intuition of how you're posting this video now, it's truly on theme
came across this at the PERFECT time!💖 i literally almost had a breakdown because I was so overwhelmed😭
I work a full time job and take care of my significant other. I was feeling really overwhelmed today when I came into work. You're video helped a lot. Thank you so much!
I truly love that your videos be short, on point, and authentic!
Love ❤ the message. I just got back to work as a manager at ULTA and it’s a lot but I’m enjoying the moments when I’m there. I’m in a space in life where I taught myself to turn off the work when I go home so my home stays my 1st happy place 😊 but my days off I mute the manager group chat. I do things like shop or my nails or just sleep in. Life for me has never been in so control by me as it is now.
Tysm Lynette ~ this is powefull because literally ~ everyday I get reminders that ✨life is full of CYCLES ✨remember to come back to the present 🦋 knowing it can and WILL change moment to moment.
Everything changes and that can be comforting and sometimes now-- but it's an utlimate truth.
I totally agree with this 😅 being intentional is so important. Living in nyc has forced me to have a hustle/ bustle mentality
lynette thank u so much for speaking up. people like u can make a huge impact in todays society. if u can do a video on how to become more self confident i would really appreciate it! btw i love the raw content, you can feel your message comes from the heart ❤️
After having such a productive day, as I’m listening to this video, every time you mention rest; my mind is like YES, WE NEED REST.
It sucks that society equates resting to wasting time/ laziness.
This video brought me so much comfort right now. Thank you so much. So many truths I resonated with to reflect on. ❤
Friend you are definitely in tune with the universe, haven’t even watched the video yet but was JUST telling myself how overwhelmed I felt today. ❤
Just what i needed to hear in this moment. You put my thoughts into words and gave me confidence that i’m doing exactly what i’m supposed to do. Great video, short & simple & on the spot! Keep up the good work & spreading good vibes💕
I was trying to talk to my finance about this today and he just didn’t get it because he has mastered escapism and I have a hard time not being able to do that anymore. Sometimes I feel so alone like nobody else gets it but I came across this video and it made me feel so seen. I feel like I’m exhausted down in my cells. I want control over my life and it feels like all I have thought capacity for is survival. I saw a video today of this indigenous tribe in the Indian Ocean and the simplicity and pure ness of their life made me want to cry. But even they are being infiltrated on now because of tourism. I just feel like there is a cancer on this planet that has to be eradicated but we have to do the work to get rid of that which isn’t natural. Le sigh…
Lynette, thank you so much for reaffirming something that’s been in my spirit for a while. I’ve been working soooo hard for the last 3 years to gain a sense of rest and peace. Now that I’m finally here, it’s weird that my mind is pushing myself to go back into that frantic survival mode. I caught myself feeling so overwhelmed by my job and social media and feeling like I’m not doing enough. I had to be honest with myself and realize I don’t know what true rest looks like. idk if this even makes any sense but I’m in a place in a place in my life where I’m finally able to rest and idk what to do with myself! I’m trying to use my free time to gain more material things and that just causes me to feel exhausted all over again. Now this video has given me extra encouragement to tap into what makes me truly fulfilled. It’s crucial that I take advantage of this time regardless of who is here to see my progress. I have to do it FOR ME ✨♥️🌸 I love you and this is why you’re my fav TH-camr
Thank you so much for this video Lynette. I am at a cross roads right now deciding between getting a basic 9-5 to please my parents or taking a leap of faith and just devoting myself to my passions as a means of generating income. I have been receiving a lot of signs from my guides nudging me towards a specific decision and this video has made it more clear to me on what the answer is. I always feel better after watching your videos and I appreciate you so much as a creator and person. Thank you for being you and sharing your journey x
Much love to you and Deku (forgive the spelling haha x)
Girl you are speaking to the collective!!!I was LITERALLY just feeling stuck and then I realized that maybe I just need to be slow and rest right now
As per usual, just what I needed. Your existence is very appreciated. Much love xoxo 🧡
So blessed to have found your page ♥️♥️ getting back to putting me first and envisioning my future♥️
you always inspires me 😍 I love what you say about being INTENTIONAL with our time and energy.
I love how your videos are short but so helpful
Yes. To. Your. Words. 👏
Observing ourselves, and being fully within your body is so important to upkeep.
All for some peace!
Thank you for the reminder of our ownership of our time and energy. I needed it 💗
Oh Lynette. Bless you for talking about capitalism and how you think about a collective revolution because SAME! You're the realest for talking about it. I really hate being in my mid 20s when the world is constantly getting worse because of big corporations and a rugged system.
2:44 is the same thing I was just praying about. it’s insane! great video 🙏🏾🤎
I just love you , everything you say instantly resonates with me. 😢❤
I’m so glad i found ur channel, i love your videos! So so helpful❤
Thank you!! I love your channel 💕 you've been helping me on my journey and now everyday I repeat to myself “just show up!”
your videos are right on time. THANK YOU I needed this.
its crazy how in sync we are in right now... literally i feel like your words are just rocking me to my core right now
Thank you so much, you dropped this video at the right time been so stressed today😩🫶🏽
i love how you make content for ppl who may not have the luxury for rest 24/7.
Wow.. This helped me so much.. It is such a blessing to discovered your channel
Love your content girl. This was definitely for me
My anxiety has been making me feel so out of control the last 2 months or so. It’s effecting me so much
Love your videos ! they inspire me to be a better version of my self
'You don't need all these side hustles. It's okay to just go home and rest.' Why does that sound so revolutionary to me??
Thank you. Sometimes I just need someone to level me out 💖
Exactly what I needed to hear this morning ✨ thank you
Your so inspiring and your energy is absolutely stunning love from another growing TH-camr 💕
Thank you used to watch you when you tried to get out of your old job nice to see your a full-time creator now
Dang, I needed to hear this message. Thanks Lynette!
Thank you for spreading the love 🤍 reminders to come back to yourself and honestly assess your needs is great, and in good timing 😌
She literally inspires ne so much to start my own channel and live life
Miss girllllll! I missed you! Thank you for posting a vid! You help and motivate me so much! ilysm❤️
Thank you, Queen!! I needed to see and hear this. The Universe guided me to this video. You totally just described my life in a nutshell right now. Thank you again. You just gained a new subscriber. Wishing you continued blessings, health, wealth, success, peace, abundance, love, and happiness:)
Timely video as always, Lynette. We love you back!!💞
Beautiful message
Really & genuinely appreciate this video thank you🤍
Definitely needed this, thank you!
do you have a podcast? thank you for sharing your wonderful perspective. truly a breath of fresh air from all of the other content out there. xx
You are a gift to the people Lynette!
This is right on time ❤ Thank you
🙌 I am totally exhausted and overwhelmed
Just what I needed to hear right when I needed to hear it. I swear we are in sync. I feel like you are talking directly to me. #Twinflame 🔥
Everyone can benefit from this video so much truth
I absolutely love this video... I'm trying to find the balance between acknowledging and sitting in my feelings in order to be able to check in with myself, but at the same time not sit in them too long to where they overcome me. If that makes sense. Loved the timing of your post
This is exactly what I needed to hear right at this moment. Thank you.❤
Do you have any advice about spending the holidays alone? I would love to see a video about this if you’ve had experience with it
thank you I needed this
Loved this video so so much! The way you make people feel and spark vision is a gift, thanks for sharing that.
Thank you❤️
yes yes yes and simply yes. this whole video speaks my mind. thank you, i feel less alone, i feel like the world is transforming even into something worse... i'm glad for the people who don't have opportunities so that they can upgrade their life, but i don't think everything is working towards community benefits. more like individual benefits... which saddens me deeply.
thank you beautiful 🙏🏾
Thank you so much for this. Just thank you!
Facts! Yes! And they are afraid of free thinkers or people who have questions. Fearful living is what feds them. All truth!
This video was more than helpful ✨✨
thank you for this
You make really good content and I appreciate this so much.
You should start a podcast ❤
Love your videos ❤❤❤
this way very helpful ❤
Thank you Lynette for this sharing . I feel better 🐣
This was actually extremely helpful! The timing also of the video (or maybe my coming across it) is crazy. Pouring into yourself and what really sustains you is important and a lesson that I'm learning as a young adult mom of a 6 month old. #MessageReceived 🙌
You are preaching, Lynette!
Thank you so much for making this video. If you haven’t heard of the podcast On Being by Krista Tippett I highly highly recommend. I felt I was starved of the types of conversations & ideas she speaks on. She speaks with neuroscientists to people involved in finance to theologians, activists both old and young. I think you might like her if you don’t already know her. Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts ❤
I always find my way back to this video.
thank you
I needed this
First of all, @TH-cam is going to have to see me because I thought I was subscribed to my Aries twin. Secondly, I loved everything about this message yet alone this video.
Thank you.
Thank you ❤️
Thanks for this
This was timely ❤ thank you so much.
perfect timing
