Friends always comforts me because I grew up watching it and it reminds me of carefree times. Sounds weird but it makes me feel safe. The showering and cleaning also definitely helps.
@RawBeautyKristi I have been a subscriber for about a year and a half now and am going back through your old videos and came across this one!I am 29 and I have been struggling with infertility for about 9 years now, I have had 7 pregnancies, 1 we made it to 23 weeks and sadly went into early labor and laid him to rest 2 days before christmas this past year (2016) . I also have PCOS (the DEVIL) and I just wanted to say how inspired I feel right now listening to you talk about living a childless life! I do have a 7 year old stepson who is my WHOLE world, but my husband and I are to the point where we are going back and forth with stopping all fertility treatments. I just wanted to send a big thank you for this video, it means so much to hear someone who has done everything in their power to have a baby say it is what it is once you have decided to stop and live! Thanks again!!!
You make me feel so much better about everything I've got going on. It's easier to know that I'm not the only one struggling in a world where everyone acts as though they've got their lives together. Thank you for being you and for continuously putting a smile on so many faces.
Hey, thank YOU for always being SO sweet and commenting the nicest things. ♥ I always hate watching other TH-camrs and seeing their perfect lives and feeling inadequate - then you turn around and see the mess behind them. Things are NOT always what they seem - i like to keep that in perspective. ♥
I agree on the kid issue. I still wonder if I want them, but then there are times when I sit and face reality that not everyone is meant to have kids. Not everyone needs to WANT kids, and no one should ever try to make/shame someone else for not wanting kids. It's just not a universal desire, and anyone who thinks it is or it should be, frankly, is really rude, close-minded and self-centered. I still remember right after my sister in law and my brother had their twins, she said to me, "God, you're so lucky. You get to just pack up and go on vacation for two weeks whenever you want." She said that the night before my hubby and I were leaving to Chicago for Christmas and New Years just b/c we wanted to. And we could because we don't have kids. Don't get me wrong. Kids are great. I love kids. I just don't know if I'm that person who wants only to dedicate the only life I have to someone else who, at 18, is going to leave and start their own life while still relying on me to always put them first. I know it sounds selfish, but really, why is it selfish to want to enjoy your life your way, and not the way society says you should?
children or no children, you are who you are. from what i have seen, and i am a new viewer, you are a caring nice person and you will be no matter what. you are doing something wonderful for a lot of people. i am glad you came to terms with it. be happy you do so much for others. blessings
I know what you mean about the TV show thing. When I was dealing with a parent's illness, Breaking Bad was my constant (depressing show, I know, but it pulled me away from my own nightmare). Watching it let me be at peace because it was there when things were bad, and it was there when things were good. Cleaning definitely helps relieve stress too, as long as you don't get overwhelmed and give up before the job is done. My question for next time is what was your septum piercing experience like? I'm thinking of getting one and I'm wondering if you could talk about some pros and cons!
Yes! A Clean house is a BIG TIME stress reliever. After cleaning I love taking a long hot shower. It's almost like I'm cleaning to the core and I make sure I use things which smell very comfy and satisfying. For me this is usually sugar, brown sugar, honey, or vanilla smells. I know others like other smells but that's definitely what I do. I also love to sit in the fluffiest and most comfy thing I own and chill out drinking something soothing and have my son curl up in my lap. Best time ever. This may sound crazy but my son's hugs instantly make me feel better. He does big ol' bear hugs and holds them for at least two minutes. (Haha). (He's almost 2).
Dear Kristi, first off let me express to you how much I love your channel! I've been watching you forever and you are so honest and real which is a true rarity in today's technological era. My question for you is how "well" do you manage your PCOS? In the sense of emotionally. I was diagnosed at 19, I'm now 27 and married. It's a daily struggle for me with the whole fertility issue. Some days I forget all about it and other days it's all I think about. The shitty part is I won't know if I'm able to have babies until I actually try to conceive, which we are not as of late. I've read many books and have read many online articles and forums on the subject, however none of them feel "real" to me. It's always the typical bullshit of "You too can have a functional full-filling life with PCOS". Same shit, different story... How do you handle the shitty emotional roller coaster of pcos on a daily basis? Thanks
When I lost my son I totally watched Friends to help me feel better too...no medications just meditation and Friends. I'm an ER nurse and you know I'm still watching Friends when I have a particularly bad shift ...I also have PCOS too and I find my hormones are all over too thank god my other half is very supportive :) thanks for the video :)
I LOVE honesty and the no nonsense answers. Other youtubers are funny about showing their bras on camera and here you are talking openly about sex drive. I love that. Stay real and just be you. It's great and so helpful for all age groups but especially teens cos as I teen I constantly felt like everything was sugar coated and worded so carefully before it was said to me. I wish I had someone as raw as you to talk to growing up :) You're awesome
Wow, not gonna lie - this is probably the best comment i have ever gotten. It means so much to me to know that it is helpful hearing honest answers - i am like this in person and some people tell me i am too honest and it comes off "TMI" - i just think its important to stop sugarcoating things and be real - because i was SO SO SO super self conscious as a kid and if i had someone sit here and be honest with me, i think i would have been better off. Thank you SO much for commenting and letting me know! :D this is going to be a FUN series!!
Omg girl i know what u mean about cleaning/being clean when ur stressed out. Even if my room is a huge mess and I'm stressed i wont sleep well. Things that work for me: hot bath, using good smelling soap, putting lotion on my skin, drinking tea, clean room, fuzzy socks and a good movie/ show ( it makes me feel happier)... Now I'm gona get back to the rest if the video! Xo
Right? If my house is a wreck, i am a wreck. I feel SO SO good when i clean - ahhhh. ♥ - i love your relaxation techniques - those are all so comfy and good for the soulll. ♥
Great to hear that you have PCOS, I do too. I felt like I was the only person in the world that had it, I'm actually very embarrassed by it so to hear that you're very open to putting it out there and saying you have it makes me feel a hole ton better, not very many beauty gurus share things like that, so thank you for being so open c: just subscribed to you today and already had a marathon of your videos. I can already tell you're gonna be a favorite c:
I love this new set of videos, it is so refreshing to see someone as raw and brutally honest as you! I'm watching you from France and I can say I feel really close to you and I find you very inspiring, keep going girl !!
Hi Kristi just wouldn't to let you know I'm so thankful for your videos! I'm a teen and I struggle with many health problems myself but having your videos to watch has changed my life in many ways you don't even know but thank you!!! Keep up your amazing videos:)
You are absolutely precious - definitely one of my favorite TH-camrs. I have a feeling this series of yours is gonna be a must-watch for me. Also, your hair is badass.
Kristi you help to destress me! I love watching your videos! Your honesty and realness really helps! And i am the same when it comes to tv shows! I love friends and watch a couple episodes once a week, and then if i am stressed i will watch a lot of episodes! And you dont get negative comments and people dont have anything bad to say! You are badass and awesome! I love this video and cant wait for the next! I really hope youtube will become your job full time and you get lots of oppurtunities!!!
I am a stress eater, too. But once I got stomach ulcer, I had to stop it, so the only thing left is watching Friends. I love that show, it instantly makes me zone out and feel better. :)
*hugs* to you on the infertility -- I get you, especially when it comes to passing on health stuff (I have a painful health condition of my own). Part of why we didn't do treatments (and went directly to adoption) was not wanting to pass those genes on. There were other reasons (religious, the fact that I hate needles, the fact that I didn't want to raise an infant, and others as well) but that was a huge part of it for us.
OMG I have PCOS as well!! I love that you mentioned it, birth control really helps keep your hormones in check really well. Not a great thing, but hey, whatever.
I'm very new to your channel, but can I just say I'm SO glad I found you! I wish people in general would be more open about things and that we could all talk more about difficulties we experience, as well as good things. However, I also think that's easier said than done, and I'm really impressed by how open and honest you are, Please do more chatty videos like this one! ♥
I found your channel through reddit (I think it was /r/beautyguruchat). So glad I did! You are so honest and down to earth. No bullshit, not overly nice or bitchy, NORMAL! I'd want to be your friend in real life! And you deserve so many more subscribers than what you have now!
exactly why I love you and this channel! we as viewers can definitely see that who you put out in your videos is genuinely you. super insipring to me :) and many other viewers i'm sure. thanks for these advice videos! super excited for more to come.
Hey girl I had horrible hormone imbalances too. Not necessarily PCOS but I had ovarian cysts and endometriosis as well as three miscarriages. I had estrogen dominance from taking birth control for two years. I pretty much did a self diagnosis and started taking Vitex and progesterone cream to balance myself out. So far, really, really good. I don't have the same symptoms as before (including low/no sex drive) and I'm pregnant, further in weeks than I ever have before. I really hope this might help you. I love your channel and how real you are! Good luck with everything :)
Having watched your channel for a long time now and never commented, I thought it about time I did! I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! You make me laugh, your make up skills are amazing and you are so real. Keep doing what you do best xxxx
I love how confident you are and how you carry yourself which leads me to my question. I know you joke about your body from to time and chinsti but to me you seem very confident about your body. I was wondering how you deal with the day to day struggle of loving your body and how you look? My bf is coming down to see me this summer (long distant relationship) and im finding it difficult to want to wear shorts or a bathing suit around him. Im personally a size 12. pls help.
:D!!! Thank you so so much!! that is so sweet of you. I appreciate it a ton, i always gotta keep it open and honest here on RawBeautyKristi! Gotta stay real!
I love the candid nature of this video. Definitely looking forward to more in this series! I would be interested in some before and after's of your house. I'm all about that HGTV life...well I want to be handy and DIY but I haven't taken that leap lol I just watch a lot of HGTV.
I really love this!! It's almost like a Q&A where we get to know more about you while you give us advice. Which is awesome since I think you're the shit. Thank you for putting your time into making videos!! xx
my tip to save on makeup. wait until the holidays. get eyeliner sets.full face makeup kits.lip kits.brushes.perfume. bath sets.nail polish sets.dirt cheap. some people love beauty blenders. me,no.I've noticed most don't properly wash their brushes. maybe a video on proper hygiene. not to be mean,but some people think smelling nasty is okay.
Question for your next video: Do you still work at a veterinary clinic? I'm interested to hear more about your job since I also work in a vet clinic! How many doctors are in your clinic? How long have you worked there? Do you enjoy your job? What's your position there and has it changed since you first started?
Yo girl! I love you. You inspired me to finally start making youtube videos for my hobby. I have been a long time watcher and I appreciate you being so honest/awesome/beautiful/talented/badass, thank you!
AWESOME! Thank you so much!! I am so glad that you feel confident and are able to do what you want to! TH-cam is SO fun! Thank you for watching/commenting - YOU are the awesome one! LOVE YA!
You are so right about having a clean house. It always makes me feel better! I just want to say that I am happy that you have come to terms with living a life without kids, but I still would be ecstatic if you did get pregnant. You would be a great mom.
That is a really nice thing of you to say ♥ i think i would LOVE being a mom if i were one, fortunately i use that love now for my little nieceypoo and she is spoiled rotten by me, which makes me feel like a makeshift mommy ♥
I've been a vegetarian for 2 years and I have literally never felt better. My skin doesn't break out as much, I've lost a ton of weight, and I feel more connected with nature and animals! :)
I like the title Raw Advice - keep it. Makes sense because you do give advice pretty much with every Q&A even if it's short advice like "you do you". 😄
I just recently found your channel, I loved this video and I will stay tuned to this series. Thanks for being so open and straightforward with your answers! I wanted to ask you, for your next installment, What kind of music do you listen to? have any favorite musician, band or genre? Music is like therapy to me so I wanted to know if it also helps you when you are stressed out #rawadvice
I only just found your channel like last week - I know this video is a few months old, but I HAD to comment!...I love this video - especially all of the advice for a youtuber starting out (I only have like 120 subs right now...) but I like the advice and hope to learn from it! But I also wanted to say...about the last thing you discussed - wanting to be a mom. We are in year 5 now with 4 failed IVF's (and VERY EFFING EXPENSIVE failed IVF's) plus 1 m/c...we are going in for another this year with a different process. Either way...I know the pain. it sucks. I am that pain. That is my life right now. I'm almost sort of jealous of women who can come to terms with not having a baby. I'm not there yet and I pray I never have to be....because (as I'm sure you understand) it's all I live for. At least at this point in my life it is...some days are better than others...and honestly, starting my own channel is one way I'm coping with NOT having a baby right now because it lets me share things with people and connect with others without being in the "mommy groups" that most women my age are! Anyways. I love your channel and I wish you all the best!! :D
I love you so much :D You're freaking amazing!!! Thank you for all the time you put in your videos but especially how much of yourself you put in them, cause you're just that awesome!
I just subscribed to your channel and let me just say, your awesome and your videos are great :-) as soon as you said that you watch friends when your stressed I was like "I do too" lol watching a movie or TV show that is absolutely hilarious really does help with stress and anxiety, my experience!! Keep up the good work on your videos ♡
This is a great Video , your beautiful inside and out ( honestly) you gave such a great way of looking at life . You are real and honest. It's so refreshing !!!!
Wow the more I watch your old and new videos the more parallels I realize. It's nice to see someone here on TH-cam that isn't scared to talk about some tough stuff. 👍🏻 Is your old channel still online and what is the name of it? 🙂
I know this is a year old and everything, but I wanted to say this. I thought I had PCOS for years and I also thought I was a-sexual. My GP didn't know enough about it to say if it was in fact PCOS. So when I got Obamacare last year, I went to an actual gynecologist and he told me that I didn't have PCOS (even though some of my symptoms were similar) but I did have a hormonal imbalance. He put me on some new hormones (basically estrogen) and BOOM, my sex drive was up and running. I'm not saying this is the same thing, you may very well have a confirmed diagnosis, but if you haven't consulted a gynecologist, it might be worth it. Especially since he found pre-cancerous cells at the same time.
Hi Kristi! Love ur openness! Can u give any weight loss advice? Have u tried any garcinia cambrogia or green coffee bean stuff ever; do u think those are just fakes? Just curious if anything has ever worked for u?
I love Full House! I grew up watching it! Have you watched the new Fuller House?! It's awesome! My absolute fav is Roseanne!! They're also bringing Roseanne back!! Anyways, I found your channel about a month ago so I've been binge watching your video's 💓💓💓 you are so down to earth, feels like catching up with a friend❣❣❣
Another thing I didn't know and now I do, which makes me love you all the more is that I also have pcos! I could not find a TH-camr that I could relate to in that sense and it's so lovely to have decided to watch this video and find this out! My sex drive is shit aswell so high five there!😂😂
I was the same way with my low libido (however, I do not have PCOS) but when I turned 32, all of that changed. I felt like a teenage boy! Its like a switch was turned on inside me and it was all I could think about. My hubs was turning ME down! Hopefully you will experience something similar. Take care sweets!
Hi... I just came across your channel...love your personality :o) I experienced a 3 month episode of cluster headaches last year & recently found out my father has them too... but I only know what I'v researched on the internet. can you do a video on your cluster headaches?
This video was one of my favorite ever from you! I can't wait for more! Q: Do you think you could be happy single? (if you never had met your husband) How would your life be different?
Girl, I hear you on the "no kids" shindig. Don't get me wrong, I love children, but I'm just not ready to have kids yet. I'm 22, and most of my classmates have a kid or is going to have one, whatever and I'm just like why? Like damn! Fuck, you guys can wait. I mean, we are still young so we have plenty of time to have kids. Personally, I feel that I'm not mentally fit to have a child. I have mental health issues that I need to sort out. Plus, I feel that I'm not mature enough to have a kid. Meaning, sometimes, I act childish. Meh :/ Btw, I love your videos! I just subscribed to your channel about a week ago. You're so real and very honest. Here's my question: do you have any tips on how to prevent your under eye concealer from creasing? I struggle with this problem and it's a real pain in the ass.
I have pcos as well and wanted a baby so bad. I ended up adopting my now husbands daughter and my niece and nephew and im so happy. its as if I had them. And I am so thinkful I did not have to go thru the pain of giving birth. Have you ever though about adopting?
i love how open you are :) me & you have been on youtube for almost the same amount of time & my channel is no where near your but its okay because I'm doing what i love & i also work part time so its hard to make videos a lot :)
I never thought I could get pregnate at a month old they removed a tube and ovary due to gan green in both . About 3 years ago I had cervical cancer and had it removed im the 3rd generation of women on my moms side thats had cancer . And I got pregnate unfortunately I lost the baby at 13 weeks . I know the feeling is horrible wanting something so bad and you cant have it while others can breathe and get pregnate or have druggies for parents . Thank you for your channel its really amazing
Awesome. I totally wasn't understanding the whole idea of these videos when you were describing them, but i loved this and cant wait for the next one! So i also have pcos, and i feel like it has plagued so many parts of my life. One of the shittier symptoms for me has been my hair thinning drastically. I remember you talking about you experiencing similar problems awhile back and i was wondering if it's something you're still dealing with. If so, do you have any tips on how to deal with it? Thanks! You're the best! Hashtag hashtag hashtag #rawadvice ;)
That was such a great video! I absolutely loved it! I can relate on so many things! I like what you've said about clean house! So true! Best destresser! although I am all into long brisk walks. I feel you about sex drive, I have smth wrong with my hormones so, have been there. And I understand about not being able to get pregnant. I was absolutely ok with having no kids till my first lost pregnancy. After that I wanted just to start over asap and do everything properly. And now I have 2 yo son and I want him to have siblings so much. But it is not happening yet. So, anyway, great video. Subbed, and will go watch more of you. Btw, I came from Marie bits&clips channel and I am so grateful for you being a good friend for her. It sounds cheese, doesn't it? )))
I understand your worry about feeling guilty over passing shitty Gene's to kids. I have 2 kids, 16 months apart. My oldest turns 2 this month. We recently found out my family Carrie's the BRCA 2 gene mutation, known as the cancer gene. We found this out while doing a genetic breakdown of my 8yr old nephews brain cancer. We recently lost our home during some fires in CA so while getting life situated were trying to figure out getting the kids tested and I feel so guilty. I also am against having any more children because even if that baby ended up not having the mutation, I'd feel incredibly guilty knowing I took that risk.
Hi Kristi, I remember you mentioning you were on the Keto diet last year. I have PCOS, and I've heard really good things about it. What are your thoughts about being Ketogenic?
Hi Kristi! So I need advice about my sister who is much younger than me, I'm 26, she just turned 12 years old and like most kids her age she tries to be very active on social media. The problem is for most of her life she's always been social and outgoing (which is a good thing) but at the same time this kid does not have a filter. She says whatever comes to mind and for the most part does not realize if someone might be sensitive to it until afterwards. I'm all about letting kids be kids but I would also like her to be considerate of other's feelings. Her mouth gets her in trouble but not only that, she's always craved attention, any attention good or bad, and it gets her into trouble with people at her school. She's been bullied by different girls, they tell her she's ugly, nobody likes her, she's annoying, one girl was going off on her because my sister said two words to this girl's boyfriend, and another went off because she said my sister stole her style? What the fuck? Like seriously stupid shit. Anyway I don't have experience with this kind of girl drama b/c for the most part I just always kept to myself in school and although she's dealing with it and puts on a brave front i wonder how it's really affecting her. it hurts me that people would say these things about her but it seems like the only thing worse for her than getting bad attention is getting no attention. I've tried talking to her as often as I can to try to get her to tone it down a little but it seems like she will listen for 2 seconds and then do whatever she wants anyway. How do I guide her to make better decisions and stop messing with these kind of people?
Aww, you haven’t posted in over a week. I truly hope everything is okay, I’m watching all your really old videos . Really hope all is okay with you Zack and sister,dad and niece along with Zacks family.
Oh god, why haven't I found you sooner. Seriously need more of you on youtube. #rawadvice What do you use the baby powder in the background for? Another question I have is do you ever get annoyed by how people just lose weight and find motivation and stick to it, and it just doesn't seem to be happening to you. I know you've touched on not having motivation before, and damnit it sucks when you don't. Have any facebook groups you follow or something?
I have a question.. I don't know if this is too late or not? but anyway, (hopefully not) I need help telling my family im Bisexual, since im Christian, my mum doesn't exactly dislike gays, bi's, ect. but she doesn't exactly support them either, and I am indeed very young. so I know if I tell her, she will be all like "no, you're too young to understand" and she is probably right, but I don't plan on marrying a female, I just wanna have the feeling, of being with one. how is a simple, but good way to tell them?
Wow, that's really crazy, I have PCOS myself and I'm the exact opposite. I guess that has a lot to do with my age like you said (18 and just diagnosed) Hope it doesn't change, my man is a horndog xD
You are so funny, so cool, so talented, so beautiful, so HONEST AND REAL. I feel like we have a lot in common (without being creepy, ha!) I have a lot of the same relationship-issues as you, I found that me and my husband are such good friends that it's hard to be "lovers" also. We should be working on it ... but honestly, we are busy and tired and also have a needy cat, and there are a lot of excuses. I find tho, that when I am shaved and in shape and taking care of myself, (or when im drunk or on vacation in new surroundings, ha!) I feel more sexy. I have gained 25 kilos over the last couple of years because of a depression, and I feel like shit, not in the mood for loving! Poor husband with all my mood swings, haha! I hope you will find a middle ground that is strong enough to carry your relationsship, wish you all the best - and know that you are not alone on struggling in some aspects and periods of life - and I totally agree that Friends can make any shit day great. ^_^ Thank you Kristi!
I love how honest you are about your sex life, I honestly don't think how often you have sex is a measure of the relationship. If you both know you are one anothers one and only and you are happy who cares if you have sex several times a day or hardly ever.
Got a messy situation. I have a group of friends from high school. One recently started dating a girl. This girl is straight up horrible. Toxic as hell. Mean. Shallow. Petty. Hateful. Rude. Spiteful. Always pissed off. Starts fights with everyone for no reason. Our other friends want me to break him and his girlfriend up. I am staying out of the mess. I hate seeing him miserable, but anything I say will only reinforce his desire to be with her. It's not my business. It's gotten to the point of my distancing myself. I don't want to be around them. Not so much the guys, it's the girlfriend. She purposely picks fights with me. She spreads lies. Tried to get my man. That was rather funny. Anyway, how should I deal with this? Avoiding my friends isn't the answer, but I can't be around this woman. I have tried speaking to her. Calling her on her crap. Does zero good. Help. I feel it's not my place to say anything. But this is out of hand. She went as far as saying that my man raped her. That's a flat out lie. When the alleged incident happened, my man was out of town. With his parents. I was with them, so there's no way. How do I deal with her without having to beat a bitch's ass? I would prefer not to go Rodney King on this tramp.
Kristi I have two questions. I also have PCOS and have been told by multiple doctor's that I probably won't be able to have kids. I'm only 19 so at the moment it hasn't affected me much, but my first question is have you ever thought about adopting or do you think it would just be too much because of all of the criteria you have to meet? My second question is do you have advice for a big girl that is trying to date. I feel like no one takes me seriously or wants a real relationship with me, they just look at it like they're doing me a favor because I'm "fat and gross" and no one would want to date me. I know I'm lovely, how do I make everyone else see that? I love your videos, you are so inspiring to me! #rawadvice
I will for SURE answer this in my next #rawadvice video! Just so you know, this will be lengthy because i have a LOT to say about your second question - make sure you tune in! It will be up soon-ish
I also struggle with PCOS and I also have a thyroid condition. I've also been told that I will never be able to conceive which is really devastating to me. I'm 25 and I already have one failed marriage because he couldn't handle it. I completely know how you feel.
Having PCOS doesn't mean you will not be able to have a baby. There are different levels of severity of PCOS. Some people can exercise and eat healthy and get pregnant with PCOS. Others simply take an oral fertility drug and get pregnant. I myself have a lean form of PCOS. My weight is not contributing to my condition. I simply have inherited an insulin resistance problem. I have one child conceived through IVF. Long answer short PCOS does not mean you will not be able to have children; you will have to work harder to have children. And it may require something more extreme like IVF.
I'm a mother of 3 children my oldest has Autism. My husband in me have been saving a payment of a house. I have a friends that's always want to go out to eat ..drinking 🍹🥂movies or girls night out.. Since my husband is the only bread maker..I watch every spent dime..now I feel if I say no to every invite I won't have friends. Or won't get invited to anything more😞
Friends always comforts me because I grew up watching it and it reminds me of carefree times. Sounds weird but it makes me feel safe. The showering and cleaning also definitely helps.
I completely agree! Its such a carefree time show, same for me. I absolutely L O V E it so much.

You make me feel so much better about everything I've got going on. It's easier to know that I'm not the only one struggling in a world where everyone acts as though they've got their lives together. Thank you for being you and for continuously putting a smile on so many faces.

Don't get me wrong. Kids are great. I love kids. I just don't know if I'm that person who wants only to dedicate the only life I have to someone else who, at 18, is going to leave and start their own life while still relying on me to always put them first. I know it sounds selfish, but really, why is it selfish to want to enjoy your life your way, and not the way society says you should?
children or no children, you are who you are. from what i have seen, and i am a new viewer, you are a caring nice person and you will be no matter what. you are doing something wonderful for a lot of people. i am glad you came to terms with it. be happy you do so much for others.

I know what you mean about the TV show thing. When I was dealing with a parent's illness, Breaking Bad was my constant (depressing show, I know, but it pulled me away from my own nightmare). Watching it let me be at peace because it was there when things were bad, and it was there when things were good. Cleaning definitely helps relieve stress too, as long as you don't get overwhelmed and give up before the job is done.
My question for next time is what was your septum piercing experience like? I'm thinking of getting one and I'm wondering if you could talk about some pros and cons!
Yes! A Clean house is a BIG TIME stress reliever. After cleaning I love taking a long hot shower. It's almost like I'm cleaning to the core and I make sure I use things which smell very comfy and satisfying. For me this is usually sugar, brown sugar, honey, or vanilla smells. I know others like other smells but that's definitely what I do. I also love to sit in the fluffiest and most comfy thing I own and chill out drinking something soothing and have my son curl up in my lap. Best time ever.
This may sound crazy but my son's hugs instantly make me feel better. He does big ol' bear hugs and holds them for at least two minutes. (Haha). (He's almost 2).
Dear Kristi, first off let me express to you how much I love your channel! I've been watching you forever and you are so honest and real which is a true rarity in today's technological era. My question for you is how "well" do you manage your PCOS? In the sense of emotionally. I was diagnosed at 19, I'm now 27 and married. It's a daily struggle for me with the whole fertility issue. Some days I forget all about it and other days it's all I think about. The shitty part is I won't know if I'm able to have babies until I actually try to conceive, which we are not as of late. I've read many books and have read many online articles and forums on the subject, however none of them feel "real" to me. It's always the typical bullshit of "You too can have a functional full-filling life with PCOS". Same shit, different story... How do you handle the shitty emotional roller coaster of pcos on a daily basis? Thanks
I can't explain how much I love you and your channel! One of the most real people here on TH-cam. Love you girl!! ❤️
When I lost my son I totally watched Friends to help me feel better too...no medications just meditation and Friends. I'm an ER nurse and you know I'm still watching Friends when I have a particularly bad shift ...I also have PCOS too and I find my hormones are all over too thank god my other half is very supportive :) thanks for the video :)
I LOVE honesty and the no nonsense answers.
Other youtubers are funny about showing their bras on camera and here you are talking openly about sex drive. I love that. Stay real and just be you.
It's great and so helpful for all age groups but especially teens cos as I teen I constantly felt like everything was sugar coated and worded so carefully before it was said to me. I wish I had someone as raw as you to talk to growing up :)
You're awesome
Wow, not gonna lie - this is probably the best comment i have ever gotten. It means so much to me to know that it is helpful hearing honest answers - i am like this in person and some people tell me i am too honest and it comes off "TMI" - i just think its important to stop sugarcoating things and be real - because i was SO SO SO super self conscious as a kid and if i had someone sit here and be honest with me, i think i would have been better off. Thank you SO much for commenting and letting me know! :D this is going to be a FUN series!!
Omg girl i know what u mean about cleaning/being clean when ur stressed out. Even if my room is a huge mess and I'm stressed i wont sleep well.
Things that work for me: hot bath, using good smelling soap, putting lotion on my skin, drinking tea, clean room, fuzzy socks and a good movie/ show ( it makes me feel happier)... Now I'm gona get back to the rest if the video!
Xo
Right? If my house is a wreck, i am a wreck. I feel SO SO good when i clean - ahhhh. ♥ - i love your relaxation techniques - those are all so comfy and good for the soulll. ♥
I watched a bunch of your videos and I adore how honest you are with your subscribers and how real you keep it. You got me hooked!
Great to hear that you have PCOS, I do too. I felt like I was the only person in the world that had it, I'm actually very embarrassed by it so to hear that you're very open to putting it out there and saying you have it makes me feel a hole ton better, not very many beauty gurus share things like that, so thank you for being so open c: just subscribed to you today and already had a marathon of your videos. I can already tell you're gonna be a favorite c:
I love this new set of videos, it is so refreshing to see someone as raw and brutally honest as you! I'm watching you from France and I can say I feel really close to you and I find you very inspiring, keep going girl !!
Hi Kristi just wouldn't to let you know I'm so thankful for your videos! I'm a teen and I struggle with many health problems myself but having your videos to watch has changed my life in many ways you don't even know but thank you!!! Keep up your amazing videos:)
You are absolutely precious - definitely one of my favorite TH-camrs. I have a feeling this series of yours is gonna be a must-watch for me.
Also, your hair is badass.
Kristi you help to destress me! I love watching your videos! Your honesty and realness really helps! And i am the same when it comes to tv shows! I love friends and watch a couple episodes once a week, and then if i am stressed i will watch a lot of episodes! And you dont get negative comments and people dont have anything bad to say! You are badass and awesome! I love this video and cant wait for the next! I really hope youtube will become your job full time and you get lots of oppurtunities!!!
I am a stress eater, too. But once I got stomach ulcer, I had to stop it, so the only thing left is watching Friends. I love that show, it instantly makes me zone out and feel better. :)
*hugs* to you on the infertility -- I get you, especially when it comes to passing on health stuff (I have a painful health condition of my own). Part of why we didn't do treatments (and went directly to adoption) was not wanting to pass those genes on. There were other reasons (religious, the fact that I hate needles, the fact that I didn't want to raise an infant, and others as well) but that was a huge part of it for us.
OMG I have PCOS as well!! I love that you mentioned it, birth control really helps keep your hormones in check really well. Not a great thing, but hey, whatever.
I'm very new to your channel, but can I just say I'm SO glad I found you! I wish people in general would be more open about things and that we could all talk more about difficulties we experience, as well as good things. However, I also think that's easier said than done, and I'm really impressed by how open and honest you are, Please do more chatty videos like this one! ♥
I found your channel through reddit (I think it was /r/beautyguruchat). So glad I did! You are so honest and down to earth. No bullshit, not overly nice or bitchy, NORMAL! I'd want to be your friend in real life! And you deserve so many more subscribers than what you have now!
I was so excited to see the first raw advice video! Loving that you'll answer anything and that you're so honest.
exactly why I love you and this channel! we as viewers can definitely see that who you put out in your videos is genuinely you. super insipring to me :) and many other viewers i'm sure. thanks for these advice videos! super excited for more to come.
Hey girl I had horrible hormone imbalances too. Not necessarily PCOS but I had ovarian cysts and endometriosis as well as three miscarriages. I had estrogen dominance from taking birth control for two years. I pretty much did a self diagnosis and started taking Vitex and progesterone cream to balance myself out. So far, really, really good. I don't have the same symptoms as before (including low/no sex drive) and I'm pregnant, further in weeks than I ever have before. I really hope this might help you. I love your channel and how real you are! Good luck with everything :)
Having watched your channel for a long time now and never commented, I thought it about time I did! I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! You make me laugh, your make up skills are amazing and you are so real. Keep doing what you do best xxxx
I love how confident you are and how you carry yourself which leads me to my question. I know you joke about your body from to time and chinsti but to me you seem very confident about your body. I was wondering how you deal with the day to day struggle of loving your body and how you look? My bf is coming down to see me this summer (long distant relationship) and im finding it difficult to want to wear shorts or a bathing suit around him. Im personally a size 12. pls help.
♥ will answer in the next video! :D keep an eye out! ♥
I just love you and how open and honest you are. I always enjoy your videos and you deserve all the subscribers and views of the big TH-cam gurus!
:D!!! Thank you so so much!! that is so sweet of you. I appreciate it a ton, i always gotta keep it open and honest here on RawBeautyKristi! Gotta stay real!
I love the candid nature of this video. Definitely looking forward to more in this series! I would be interested in some before and after's of your house. I'm all about that HGTV life...well I want to be handy and DIY but I haven't taken that leap lol I just watch a lot of HGTV.
I will DEFINTELY do some Before & After stuff of my house - i have gotten lax on doing before VIDEO, but i definitely have before photos. :D
Love your honesty! So refreshing to say the least. You confidence is awesome. Wish I could be that confident.
I really love this!! It's almost like a Q&A where we get to know more about you while you give us advice. Which is awesome since I think you're the shit. Thank you for putting your time into making videos!! xx
Well said on living child free!!
I cannot stop staring at your brows! They are ridiculously on fleek girl
my tip to save on makeup. wait until the holidays. get eyeliner sets.full face makeup kits.lip kits.brushes.perfume. bath sets.nail polish sets.dirt cheap. some people love beauty blenders. me,no.I've noticed most don't properly wash their brushes. maybe a video on proper hygiene. not to be mean,but some people think smelling nasty is okay.
Question for your next video: Do you still work at a veterinary clinic? I'm interested to hear more about your job since I also work in a vet clinic! How many doctors are in your clinic? How long have you worked there? Do you enjoy your job? What's your position there and has it changed since you first started?
i think you are my long lost soul twin. I've binge watched your videos for the first time today and you and I are so much alike
Yo girl! I love you. You inspired me to finally start making youtube videos for my hobby. I have been a long time watcher and I appreciate you being so honest/awesome/beautiful/talented/badass, thank you!
AWESOME! Thank you so much!! I am so glad that you feel confident and are able to do what you want to! TH-cam is SO fun! Thank you for watching/commenting - YOU are the awesome one! LOVE YA!
You are simply AWESOME!!! Thanks for making this video. I look forward to many more.... when you have the time! Love ya lots!! xoxo
You are so right about having a clean house. It always makes me feel better! I just want to say that I am happy that you have come to terms with living a life without kids, but I still would be ecstatic if you did get pregnant. You would be a great mom.
That is a really nice thing of you to say ♥ i think i would LOVE being a mom if i were one, fortunately i use that love now for my little nieceypoo and she is spoiled rotten by me, which makes me feel like a makeshift mommy ♥
I've been a vegetarian for 2 years and I have literally never felt better. My skin doesn't break out as much, I've lost a ton of weight, and I feel more connected with nature and animals! :)
I like the title Raw Advice - keep it. Makes sense because you do give advice pretty much with every Q&A even if it's short advice like "you do you". 😄
I just recently found your channel, I loved this video and I will stay tuned to this series. Thanks for being so open and straightforward with your answers! I wanted to ask you, for your next installment, What kind of music do you listen to? have any favorite musician, band or genre? Music is like therapy to me so I wanted to know if it also helps you when you are stressed out #rawadvice
I only just found your channel like last week - I know this video is a few months old, but I HAD to comment!...I love this video - especially all of the advice for a youtuber starting out (I only have like 120 subs right now...) but I like the advice and hope to learn from it! But I also wanted to say...about the last thing you discussed - wanting to be a mom. We are in year 5 now with 4 failed IVF's (and VERY EFFING EXPENSIVE failed IVF's) plus 1 m/c...we are going in for another this year with a different process. Either way...I know the pain. it sucks. I am that pain. That is my life right now. I'm almost sort of jealous of women who can come to terms with not having a baby. I'm not there yet and I pray I never have to be....because (as I'm sure you understand) it's all I live for. At least at this point in my life it is...some days are better than others...and honestly, starting my own channel is one way I'm coping with NOT having a baby right now because it lets me share things with people and connect with others without being in the "mommy groups" that most women my age are! Anyways. I love your channel and I wish you all the best!! :D
I love you so much :D You're freaking amazing!!! Thank you for all the time you put in your videos but especially how much of yourself you put in them, cause you're just that awesome!
I just subscribed to your channel and let me just say, your awesome and your videos are great :-) as soon as you said that you watch friends when your stressed I was like "I do too" lol watching a movie or TV show that is absolutely hilarious really does help with stress and anxiety, my experience!! Keep up the good work on your videos ♡
This is a great Video , your beautiful inside and out ( honestly) you gave such a great way of looking at life . You are real and honest. It's so refreshing !!!!
Wow the more I watch your old and new videos the more parallels I realize. It's nice to see someone here on TH-cam that isn't scared to talk about some tough stuff. 👍🏻
Is your old channel still online and what is the name of it? 🙂
Can you show your lighting/filming setup? And where you got your setup?
I know this is a year old and everything, but I wanted to say this.
I thought I had PCOS for years and I also thought I was a-sexual. My GP didn't know enough about it to say if it was in fact PCOS. So when I got Obamacare last year, I went to an actual gynecologist and he told me that I didn't have PCOS (even though some of my symptoms were similar) but I did have a hormonal imbalance. He put me on some new hormones (basically estrogen) and BOOM, my sex drive was up and running.
I'm not saying this is the same thing, you may very well have a confirmed diagnosis, but if you haven't consulted a gynecologist, it might be worth it. Especially since he found pre-cancerous cells at the same time.
"It fucking is what it is." My life motto as well.
I am addicted to watching these advice videos

Hi Kristi! Love ur openness! Can u give any weight loss advice? Have u tried any garcinia cambrogia or green coffee bean stuff ever; do u think those are just fakes? Just curious if anything has ever worked for u?
I love Full House! I grew up watching it! Have you watched the new Fuller House?! It's awesome! My absolute fav is Roseanne!! They're also bringing Roseanne back!! Anyways, I found your channel about a month ago so I've been binge watching your video's 💓💓💓 you are so down to earth, feels like catching up with a friend❣❣❣
Another thing I didn't know and now I do, which makes me love you all the more is that I also have pcos! I could not find a TH-camr that I could relate to in that sense and it's so lovely to have decided to watch this video and find this out! My sex drive is shit aswell so high five there!😂😂
I was the same way with my low libido (however, I do not have PCOS) but when I turned 32, all of that changed. I felt like a teenage boy! Its like a switch was turned on inside me and it was all I could think about. My hubs was turning ME down! Hopefully you will experience something similar. Take care sweets!
Hi... I just came across your channel...love your personality :o) I experienced a 3 month episode of cluster headaches last year & recently found out my father has them too... but I only know what I'v researched on the internet. can you do a video on your cluster headaches?
This video was one of my favorite ever from you! I can't wait for more!
Q: Do you think you could be happy single? (if you never had met your husband) How would your life be different?
And advice for single people searching for a relationship
Girl, I hear you on the "no kids" shindig. Don't get me wrong, I love children, but I'm just not ready to have kids yet. I'm 22, and most of my classmates have a kid or is going to have one, whatever and I'm just like why? Like damn! Fuck, you guys can wait. I mean, we are still young so we have plenty of time to have kids. Personally, I feel that I'm not mentally fit to have a child. I have mental health issues that I need to sort out. Plus, I feel that I'm not mature enough to have a kid. Meaning, sometimes, I act childish. Meh :/
Btw, I love your videos! I just subscribed to your channel about a week ago. You're so real and very honest. Here's my question: do you have any tips on how to prevent your under eye concealer from creasing? I struggle with this problem and it's a real pain in the ass.
Your awesome. I keep saying this. And your nails are everything.
:D thank you!!! :D i love them too ----- they give me liiiiiife
Absolutely love this video and your honesty! I don't have a question but I thought it was funny that we have the same phone case, lol!
I have pcos as well and wanted a baby so bad. I ended up adopting my now husbands daughter and my niece and nephew and im so happy. its as if I had them. And I am so thinkful I did not have to go thru the pain of giving birth. Have you ever though about adopting?
You should blog about your home repair and decor,, even short videos would be great :)
Hi I was wondering if you would ever consider doing a room or house tour? Love your videos xoxo
i love how open you are :) me & you have been on youtube for almost the same amount of time & my channel is no where near your but its okay because I'm doing what i love & i also work part time so its hard to make videos a lot :)
I never thought I could get pregnate at a month old they removed a tube and ovary due to gan green in both . About 3 years ago I had cervical cancer and had it removed im the 3rd generation of women on my moms side thats had cancer . And I got pregnate unfortunately I lost the baby at 13 weeks . I know the feeling is horrible wanting something so bad and you cant have it while others can breathe and get pregnate or have druggies for parents . Thank you for your channel its really amazing
Awesome. I totally wasn't understanding the whole idea of these videos when you were describing them, but i loved this and cant wait for the next one! So i also have pcos, and i feel like it has plagued so many parts of my life. One of the shittier symptoms for me has been my hair thinning drastically. I remember you talking about you experiencing similar problems awhile back and i was wondering if it's something you're still dealing with. If so, do you have any tips on how to deal with it? Thanks! You're the best! Hashtag hashtag hashtag #rawadvice ;)
That was such a great video! I absolutely loved it! I can relate on so many things!
I like what you've said about clean house! So true! Best destresser! although I am all into long brisk walks.
I feel you about sex drive, I have smth wrong with my hormones so, have been there. And I understand about not being able to get pregnant. I was absolutely ok with having no kids till my first lost pregnancy. After that I wanted just to start over asap and do everything properly. And now I have 2 yo son and I want him to have siblings so much. But it is not happening yet.
So, anyway, great video. Subbed, and will go watch more of you. Btw, I came from Marie bits&clips channel and I am so grateful for you being a good friend for her. It sounds cheese, doesn't it? )))
I understand your worry about feeling guilty over passing shitty Gene's to kids. I have 2 kids, 16 months apart. My oldest turns 2 this month. We recently found out my family Carrie's the BRCA 2 gene mutation, known as the cancer gene. We found this out while doing a genetic breakdown of my 8yr old nephews brain cancer. We recently lost our home during some fires in CA so while getting life situated were trying to figure out getting the kids tested and I feel so guilty. I also am against having any more children because even if that baby ended up not having the mutation, I'd feel incredibly guilty knowing I took that risk.
Hi Kristi,
I remember you mentioning you were on the Keto diet last year. I have PCOS, and I've heard really good things about it. What are your thoughts about being Ketogenic?
I have lots of stuff to say about Keto! I will make sure to talk about it and answer this in my next #rawadvice video!
LOVE your honesty
You are so relatable :) I have PCOS too-- no fun :(
Hi Kristi! So I need advice about my sister who is much younger than me, I'm 26, she just turned 12 years old and like most kids her age she tries to be very active on social media. The problem is for most of her life she's always been social and outgoing (which is a good thing) but at the same time this kid does not have a filter. She says whatever comes to mind and for the most part does not realize if someone might be sensitive to it until afterwards. I'm all about letting kids be kids but I would also like her to be considerate of other's feelings. Her mouth gets her in trouble but not only that, she's always craved attention, any attention good or bad, and it gets her into trouble with people at her school. She's been bullied by different girls, they tell her she's ugly, nobody likes her, she's annoying, one girl was going off on her because my sister said two words to this girl's boyfriend, and another went off because she said my sister stole her style? What the fuck? Like seriously stupid shit. Anyway I don't have experience with this kind of girl drama b/c for the most part I just always kept to myself in school and although she's dealing with it and puts on a brave front i wonder how it's really affecting her. it hurts me that people would say these things about her but it seems like the only thing worse for her than getting bad attention is getting no attention. I've tried talking to her as often as I can to try to get her to tone it down a little but it seems like she will listen for 2 seconds and then do whatever she wants anyway. How do I guide her to make better decisions and stop messing with these kind of people?
Aww, you haven’t posted in over a week. I truly hope everything is okay, I’m watching all your really old videos . Really hope all is okay with you Zack and sister,dad and niece along with Zacks family.
The best feeling is cleaning your whole house then showering and just laying around naked with candles lit and ugh, it's the greatest.
I haven't tried the candle thing... might just get naked right now.... '((..undresses and pulls out lighter...'))
Oh god, why haven't I found you sooner. Seriously need more of you on youtube. #rawadvice What do you use the baby powder in the background for? Another question I have is do you ever get annoyed by how people just lose weight and find motivation and stick to it, and it just doesn't seem to be happening to you. I know you've touched on not having motivation before, and damnit it sucks when you don't. Have any facebook groups you follow or something?
Good point about people constantly watching themselves when they film... It is annoying
I wore that exact beanie today lol. Love you from 2020 💜
@rawbeautykristi you're Amazeballs. I love this you everything! #realtalk #rawadvice
I loved this video :) awesome tips!
Hey girl don't hate on those baths. Especially when they are paired with a glass of wine :o
Friends is my destresser go-to! You give awesome advice. :)
Weird question, do you/have you ever had stretchmarks? Also, totally related, what camera do you use? ;D
You answered my queation! Ahhh, I'm so happy haha
Also, you're so beautiful and I love your videos!
I clean too jajaj it helps me feel in control ...
You're such an inspiration :)
Thank you so much! :D ♥♥
I have a question.. I don't know if this is too late or not? but anyway, (hopefully not)
I need help telling my family im Bisexual, since im Christian, my mum doesn't exactly dislike gays, bi's, ect. but she doesn't exactly support them either, and I am indeed very young. so I know if I tell her, she will be all like "no, you're too young to understand" and she is probably right, but I don't plan on marrying a female, I just wanna have the feeling, of being with one. how is a simple, but good way to tell them?
I have pcos also and I know too well what you mean about not having a sex drive lol. It's a total bummer =/ Love you and your channel ♡
Wow, that's really crazy, I have PCOS myself and I'm the exact opposite. I guess that has a lot to do with my age like you said (18 and just diagnosed) Hope it doesn't change, my man is a horndog xD
OH MY GOD YOUR PHONE CASE!
:D!! YAAAAS! HP for the win!
Fantastic - that's all I have to say - just fantastic.
THANK YOU! :D ♥♥♥♥
You are so funny, so cool, so talented, so beautiful, so HONEST AND REAL.
I feel like we have a lot in common (without being creepy, ha!)
I have a lot of the same relationship-issues as you, I found that me and my husband are such good friends that it's hard to be "lovers" also. We should be working on it ... but honestly, we are busy and tired and also have a needy cat, and there are a lot of excuses. I find tho, that when I am shaved and in shape and taking care of myself, (or when im drunk or on vacation in new surroundings, ha!) I feel more sexy. I have gained 25 kilos over the last couple of years because of a depression, and I feel like shit, not in the mood for loving! Poor husband with all my mood swings, haha!
I hope you will find a middle ground that is strong enough to carry your relationsship, wish you all the best - and know that you are not alone on struggling in some aspects and periods of life - and I totally agree that Friends can make any shit day great. ^_^ Thank you Kristi!
loved this!
I love how honest you are about your sex life, I honestly don't think how often you have sex is a measure of the relationship. If you both know you are one anothers one and only and you are happy who cares if you have sex several times a day or hardly ever.
I was wondering how many subs you had at this time!
Cheapest Sigma brush when you’re Canadian is 24.87 for the cheapest one. Like frack I can’t afford that.
Got a messy situation. I have a group of friends from high school. One recently started dating a girl. This girl is straight up horrible. Toxic as hell. Mean. Shallow. Petty. Hateful. Rude. Spiteful. Always pissed off. Starts fights with everyone for no reason. Our other friends want me to break him and his girlfriend up. I am staying out of the mess. I hate seeing him miserable, but anything I say will only reinforce his desire to be with her. It's not my business. It's gotten to the point of my distancing myself. I don't want to be around them. Not so much the guys, it's the girlfriend. She purposely picks fights with me. She spreads lies. Tried to get my man. That was rather funny. Anyway, how should I deal with this? Avoiding my friends isn't the answer, but I can't be around this woman. I have tried speaking to her. Calling her on her crap. Does zero good. Help. I feel it's not my place to say anything. But this is out of hand. She went as far as saying that my man raped her. That's a flat out lie. When the alleged incident happened, my man was out of town. With his parents. I was with them, so there's no way. How do I deal with her without having to beat a bitch's ass? I would prefer not to go Rodney King on this tramp.
Kristi I have two questions. I also have PCOS and have been told by multiple doctor's that I probably won't be able to have kids. I'm only 19 so at the moment it hasn't affected me much, but my first question is have you ever thought about adopting or do you think it would just be too much because of all of the criteria you have to meet? My second question is do you have advice for a big girl that is trying to date. I feel like no one takes me seriously or wants a real relationship with me, they just look at it like they're doing me a favor because I'm "fat and gross" and no one would want to date me. I know I'm lovely, how do I make everyone else see that? I love your videos, you are so inspiring to me! #rawadvice
I will for SURE answer this in my next #rawadvice video! Just so you know, this will be lengthy because i have a LOT to say about your second question - make sure you tune in! It will be up soon-ish
RawBeautyKristi Yes please talk more about your PCOS situation. I have it as well. (: Love you girl!
I also struggle with PCOS and I also have a thyroid condition. I've also been told that I will never be able to conceive which is really devastating to me. I'm 25 and I already have one failed marriage because he couldn't handle it. I completely know how you feel.
Having PCOS doesn't mean you will not be able to have a baby. There are different levels of severity of PCOS. Some people can exercise and eat healthy and get pregnant with PCOS. Others simply take an oral fertility drug and get pregnant. I myself have a lean form of PCOS. My weight is not contributing to my condition. I simply have inherited an insulin resistance problem. I have one child conceived through IVF. Long answer short PCOS does not mean you will not be able to have children; you will have to work harder to have children. And it may require something more extreme like IVF.
LOVE this video :) LOVE you xx
I'm a mother of 3 children my oldest has Autism. My husband in me have been saving a payment of a house. I have a friends that's always want to go out to eat ..drinking 🍹🥂movies or girls night out.. Since my husband is the only bread maker..I watch every spent dime..now I feel if I say no to every invite I won't have friends. Or won't get invited to anything more😞
