    Hi friends! Happy Friday 🎉It's a beautiful day today in NYC. Another week of having ups and downs, but that is life. Things ARE improving. When it comes to health though, it is tough. Thanks for showing up every week to take a step into my brain. Love you & am so grateful for you!! 💘

      You're definitely not alone. Living in Meridan Mississippi there isn't as much to do. But being an artist, I just continue the creativity vibe like I have since 6 years old. Wish I could go thrifting up where you are. Keep the mind busy, speckle with healthy down time. Rinse and repeat. 😅

    Personal Trainer here… oh girl,… you def pushed it too much on that run, babe! The first thing that told me you were over exerting was how your face turned red w the white ring around your mouth area. Then of course the nausea that followed. And it doesn’t mean that you’re not up to the challenge. Just that this specific day was not one for such an intense push. Don’t beat yourself up over it, friend. It’s only your body telling you that tomorrow holds more opportunities! Love you Chelsea!

      I get red like that on my face any time I work out and I workout multiple times per week. For some people it's just normal. I used to get super insecure and try to avoid working out around other people because of comments they would make. No matter the intensity of my workout, always red (which from personal experience and watching her videos I think Chelsea does too) I actually find it cool that she shows that on her videos because it makes me feel less ashamed about it myself. Some of us pasty white people can't help but become tomatoes when exercising ❤

      @@ChelseaCallahan face redness after exercise is all part of the body's natural cooling system. I'm a super tomato-face myself. However, if accompanied by dizziness /nausea it could indicate heat exhaustion. So the redness in itself isn't a problem.
      Just wondering if you've had your blood glucose levels and blood pressure checked lately? Might be worth it if the nausea keeps happening.

    Chelsea, I love your vlogs. In theory, we have very little in common. I'm in my 60s, I live in a small village in Italy. That little voice in the head is, somehow, the same...training for the long-distance walk you want to do when you retire, clean out the accumulated junk in the house, always wanting to be a better version of who I am now, joining community groups and contributing in small actions, connecting with friends and visiting new places and attending events.
    I love your raw honesty...it, somehow, took me an extra 30 years. 😂

    Hi Chelsea, our lives couldn't be more different. I live in a small city in Germany. All my time is taken up by my job where I am criminally underpaid, renovating a small house I just bought all by my lonesome self, and worrying about whether I made a grave mistake undertaking this project. I've been in NYC three or four times so far (I'm a Broadway fangirl) but could not imagine living there full-time. Yet I love coming on here and watch you live your life.
    And don't worry about being/seeming perfect. Nobody here clicks on your videos to see perfection. We all love how authentic and real you are. It reminds us of how, ultimately, all human experiences are the same - no matter the circumstances of your situation.
    I'm sending you all the positive energy you need. 🌻

    I clean up the dyke where I live and do this because it irritates me when people throw stuff and don't wait till they get home or put in their own coat or bag. No, throw it on the streets. You could say I do it every day while walking with my dog in the morning. People are consumed by the climate but let's just start with taking your own carbage till you get home! Love that you did that and I hope you continue doing it even in your own neighborhood. I am also so happy that you have found a bigger apartment than the previous one and hope you are feeling happier. Love the lamp by the way! Your channel is going to 100K in these couple months. You deserve it!

I love watching and partaking on life in NYC. It is absolutely fascinating and exciting for someone who has never been to America to get the insights you are giving us. Thank you.

    Hi my name is Nicholas Papadopoulakis from NYC and I was born and raised in Chania Crete Greece. I saw your New York City posts and advices to survive in the city, and I like your optimism and strategy. Besides I feel you how you feel here in NYC, and I also feel the same way as well since I do miss my homeland and the quality of life and community in Crete Greece. One thing which I would suggest you to find people is to use Meetup and find clubs where you can meet people with the same common interests.

    ❤❤❤ I am in turning 52 in a couple of weeks, things that I know now, that I wish I knew in my 30’s, do not do shit that makes you stressed or anxious. 😬 I have learned to find things that are equally healthy that I do enjoy. I hate running with every inch of my being, but I do love palates/yoga so I do that instead. Not sure that was helpful, but trying to say be kind to yourself when you are pushing yourself to do something you do not enjoy. ❤❤❤❤

    Chelsea, you have a whole marathon under your belt. And not just any marathon, the NYC marathon!! You don't need to prove anything to anyone. Just run when you feel like running without expectations. I too love running but there are days when the mind doesn't want to cooperate and the outcome sucks, so just do what you can if your body is not working. Enjoy yourself and your life. We are all here cheering you on no matter what. ❤

    You're building so much infrastructure inside your head and body in these years, Chelsea. I often think people who are in perpetual crisis in their marriages is because they didn't have those five years of living/being alone. Just taking time to see what life is life without the distractions or energy of another person.

  • @UrieLeviathan
    @UrieLeviathan 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Don't be too rough on yourself, Chelsea. Do your very best, and don't worry if you're not 100% everytime. Maybe these few weeks are a bit of a hurry for that run, but if you do your best, you'll have plenty of reasons to be proud of yourself. There will be more runs, more semi-marathons, you can take one step at a time and try several times.
    Not being on top is not a failure, you could see it as a checkpoint! It will give you clear hints on what you want and could improve for the next run. You owe nothing to anyone, but kindness and love, and that applies to yourself too.
    Lots of love from France

I have Endometriosis and had Adenomysosis until recently when I had a hysterectomy to remove it. And I have days where it feels like the fatigue or pain is so bad that I can't do what my brain tells me I should be doing and the struggle internally, constantly battling with your body is exhausting. But when I see people like you sharing your experiences, I allow myself some grace. Thank you 🥰

    Hey Chelsea, this is my first time commenting here but I have been watching your channel for more than a year now.
    I have moved alone from Belgium to NY about a year and a half ago, lived there for a year and went back to Belgium. When I lived in NY, you were part of the "stable elements" of my life. It was so nice to see a relatable woman in her early thirties embracing her 'introvertness' and enjoying living alone in NY. And now that I am back to Belgium, miss NY and have to navigate the unknown, seeing you living your everyday life in NY is also one of my "anchors" back to NY (ok maybe a bit of an intense word, but you get the idea). I love that you are so human and so genuine. You said in your previous vlog that pulling out the camera to cry is cringe; I also often think that, when seeing some youtubers do it, but here I feel like it's so different. You're basically just facetiming friends to help you regulate your emotions.
    If I am commenting, it's thanks to your reminders throughout vlogmas, to remind people to comment. I have been wanting to comment ever since but since I am the queen of procrastination, it took me four months, but here I am! So my 2nd message is basically, please continue saying in your videos how important it is to support content creators by liking, commenting and watching ads, because I never gave it a good thought before you mentioned it (and it helped that you repeated it across videos).
    Thank you for your videos and sending you lots of love from Belgium 💖

    Chelsea, thank you for being "vulnerable" in this video. I started watching it a few days ago, but got distracted by life stuff, so I just watched the second half today-- a day when I feel particularly stuck. I really needed to see somebody else just dealing with everyday shit, self-doubts and also personal triumphs. I can't run anymore (I'm older and have spine issues), so I really enjoy watching you continue to do that. (I was cheering you on and crying with you from my car as I was driving to work, when you crossed the marathon finish line last year.) Thank you for sharing snippets of your life. 😃❤

    Hey Chelsea, I can highly recommend switching from chemical cleaners to a simple vinegar mix! Just add water, vinegar and maybe a few drops of dishwashing liquid to a spray bottle and clean away. You may need to get used to the smell but it always fades away and cleans everything so well! Also investing in good cloths and making sure to wipe everything down with a clean dry cloth as the final step helps a lot with making things nice and shiny. And make sure to let the mixture sit for awhile on any stubborn spots, give it time to soak into any stains. Its so easy, cleaning vinegar is super cheap, and much better for your lungs and the environent!

Maybe I’m naive but I can’t imagine anyone ever doing that. If the marathon is feeling like too much but you love running, could you just run when you want and not have that pressure hanging over you? It seems funny to me that you could even ever think you’re not enough or not good enough. I see you as so strong, so powerful and succeeding in a huge crazy place that can’t be an easy place to live. I know the grass is always greener etc. but I see you and your life and think wow, I wish I could be doing that. Oh, I think it’s awesome you’re helping clean up your city, that’s such a good way to influence others to do the same. Sending all good karma your way😊

    Your videos bring me so much joy. Thank you, Chelsea, for inspiring us all. Perfect is the enemy of the good and it's taken me such a long time to come to terms with it. But we aren't valued on doing everything perfectly, we are valued on being good people and putting good into the world. And you do that and so much more. ❤

    Hi Chelsea! What an enjoyable video! Was recently in NYC for a few days and now wished we had seen Great Gatsby. We saw Appropriate, a family drama, with Sarah Paulson (who was awesome). Re your running, I wish you much luck for the half marathon but it seems you would be happier if you just ran for fun. I know you were happy to get invited to run but no one would think less of you if you decided you weren’t in peak condition to ultimately do the race. If you just love to run, run for your own enjoyment. People do it every day. Just my two cents.

    • @ChelseaCallahan
      @ChelseaCallahan  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hope you had a great time in NYC! This is the most I've ever shared about a training process, I felt so much worse training for the marathon and doing the race was the best day of my life. Gonna keep making an effort even if I don't make my goal :)

    Hi Chelsea! Long time lurker, second time commenter. I wanted to pop by and just basically agree with what everyone is saying here. I love your videos, they're always so relateable and real, there's just no bs which I love. Obviously many videos online are so filtered and edited and while it can be entertaining to watch, it can still feel like they're worlds away from real life and unattainable in every way. Your videos are not like that and it's inspiring to see how even though you struggle sometimes you still keep trying and improving but then also that sometimes for whatever reason it's just not your day and that's okey too! It's so nice to see and I relate to you a lot.
    Also, as a skin care enthusiast I gotta say I loved the peek into your skincare stash! I had to freeze frame cause I love knowing what kind of products others use😅. Have to say you own a lot of products I've wanted to try for so long, especially the Paula's Choice products. Can I ask if you have any thoughts especially on the Azelaic Acid one? Have you found that it works? I feel like I might have the same skin concerns as you so I just wanted to ask if you have any products that you feel has helped or improved your skin? I look forward to the next video. Hope you have a great day✨

    Chelsea, when you wake up it’s always a Chelsea morning! Joni Mitchell song lyric, BTW! I’m your mom’s age, and I believe the not good enough vibe is in lots of us, especially women. When it comes up, wish it a nice day and tell it you’re MORE than enough and let it go. BECAUSE YOU ARE. I almost passed out in my doctor’s office last week. The nurse brought me three glasses of water and an alcohol pad. The alcohol pad takes away nausea when sniffed. I was definitely dehydrated after a busy morning of running around and not drinking my water. Bettering oneself is the best! You have a lovely social circle, and seem to enjoy the best the city has to offer. You rock!! And use less chemicals. Vinegar is cheap and safe for most cleanups!

    Loved this video. Question: why the pressure to run? Especially since you aren't loving it? Why not listen to where your body is right now? Not that running won't be in your future still, but why the pressure to do something your body and mind and emotions are telling you not to for this moment in your life?

    Two things. 1st: Hormones kick your ass, get pass it! 2nd: Your 30! You’re able to move forward and rise above the stuff that people feel awkward about. Be yourself. Enjoy the day and embrace the things you have control over. Do not let the past dictate your future. Love your energy and enthusiasm for adventure. Have fun and bring pleasure to those you select to be in your circle. I wish you a pleasant path. Love.

    Thanks for telling us about the Sanitation Foundation. I've been doing my own little litter thing for years. I call it One Piece A Day. Every day, I make sure to pick up at least one piece of litter. Sometimes it's more (especially in the winter because I'm wearing gloves) and if I miss a day, the next day I pick up at least two.. It's not much, so it's easy to do. I figure that in a year, I probably fill the equivalent of one or two corner garbage bins. I was inspired after hearing Bette Midler talk about how beautiful this city is, and how she couldn't understand how people can just walk past litter. I love the idea of choosing to take care of one little spot.

    My friend, running is hard. We know this. Self motivating is really hard. Even if you had a not perfect run….you RAN! So GOOD JOB. We also know how rare it is to have a Great Run. So we slog thru the harder ones joping the next one will be GREAT. But be proud that youre getting it DONE. Also if you wanna do another 13.1 this year..have you ever sone Greta’s Great Gallop…? Its a whole fun weekend of racing. Its 3 weeks before NYC 26.2. So…NICE weather! I luv that race. Anyway youre doing great…! We are here to support you always! 🗽🎉🥰

It’s boldness with deep deep layers of humility that only someone with the same quality of confidence can see properly in someone else. Actually, this entire video was your Virgo on display!!

    as a fellow perfectionist it took me a long time to let my body rest and prioritise the needs of my body and feelings over my mind. Teaching my body to come to the state the "rest and digest", listening to my feelings and deleting all my social media was extremely liberating.
    Also this is a piece of unasked for advice - separating your work from your personal life is a game changer for any creative person, that's especially when your work is so closely connected with your personal life.

    Love your bathroom organizer/shelf above the toliet. It's so satisfying cleaning when u are mad or pissed off. Some ppl exercise i rage clean/ vaccum😂. Just tell yourself you are doing great & u are still lapping all of us who are sitting on the couch. Don't put your make-up/skincare in the bathroom! The humidity will break down the products quicker, this is especially true for fragrance which should be kept in a cool, dark place such as the fridge. Love the sanitation kit they sent you! I watch other NYC blogs (Cash Jordan)& it looks so dirty there with the trash bags piled on the street, glad u joinned a good cause! Your event looked like a lot of fun! Good luck on your race!

    Another great video, Time Square shots, awesome.
    Your life is so full and happy until it comes to the running. If you dont love something, dont do it.
    You have a current goal. Once this half marathon is over, it's no shame to pick a more enjoyable goal.
    I know 3 runners who train for marathons, they run incredible distance to train, they run, they rest next day run, next day rest, etc..
    They love every minute of training.
    It's ok to move on from something you dont love. Not everything is for everyone.
