    This video is a little different for me, but I hope you enjoy it and it makes you feel great about where you're at in life :) also, I apologize for some of the audio issues, I had an equipment malfunction! 💚

    I really appreciate this video. Found you through a search about canning. Loved that and had a sense we were kindred. I too am the primary earner and it works for us. He pulls his “weight” in a million ways. We flow so well together in building the life we want. Got out of the rat race of the world several months ago. Got rid of everything and purchased a motor coach where we live mostly stationary on a farm that is trying to be fully self sustaining. It’s owned by another couple and we are helping out. It’s amazing. So much released that was all conditioning. Thank you for sharing about yourself. I am happy to learn more about you and dive into your videos. I have a lot to learn! ❤

    I know the feeling. I lost my mother two years ago. I have never fit in with the so-called social norms. I have suffered years of heartache, dissapointment, and immense pressure of just trying to being me. At least you found happiness, which is great. Happiness has eluded me for many years. I just learned to live with it.

      It can feel so lonely even when you know a lot of other people are going through the same thing. I can relate to how you’re feeling now, it’s a tough spot to be in. Thank you for watching & sharing some of your story too 💚

    Thank you for sharing! I had a very similar experience when my mom passed also. Your experience solidified my reasons for living my life with intention, but MY intention. It's nice to see that I am not alone here 😊.

      It’s so interesting how intuition works in those moments! And I agree, it’s nice to know we’re not alone in those experiences because they feel so isolating. Thank you for watching & commenting! 💚

    What a lovely person you are. I'm 65 and have nine children. Children just pass through your life, my wonderful midwife told me, and she was right. I love my children, but now it is back to just my husband and myself. I think, also, you lose your own self while raising children, so child free people can dedicate that time to self. If they stayed little all the time, then I would tell everyone to jump in but they grow up and become adults and do their own lives. Normal, what we aim for but you, in the end, are back to where you started ... child free. As for weight, you are just fine. I agree with ignoring weight and eating to please yourself (within reason). Life is short. You have a wonderful philosophy for living a fulfilled life.

      That’s such an interesting perspective, I had never thought of it that way! Thank you so much for watching and for this lovely comment 💚

    Great video. I couldn't agree more. I also have long since broke with nonsense social norms and at 48 years old I couldn't be happier with my life and its unconventional choices. Love the channel and as a former You tuber I understand the pressure to make society and algorithm pleasing videos, especially as the channel becomes more successful.
    Cheers

    I love this video!! I'm also biological child free, although not truly by choice. I do have a stepdaughter that I love as my own. As far as weight, I hear you and feel seen. Society constantly tells girls they have to be a certain size. I embrace my size and just keep reaching for better health. I love your channel and believe you're doing great. When I first watched I knew I wanted to stay. As far as work goes, yeah I'm retiring this year. Lol. Keep it up!

      Haha good for you on the retirement! I might feel differently about that in a few years :) thank you for watching!
