I remember that after you've graduated, you shared with us that you don't know where your TH-cam career is going now or if it is even going somewhere because you cannot do study content anymore. But I truly think that your self-observation and reflection journey is so valuable to us that i think this might be the direction you're heading towards! I am genuinely happy to see you like this and am so grateful that you share your journey with us! Have a wonderful day you all:))
💜 I am so insanely proud of myself for working through my internalized ableism. I’m finally starting to feel less guilty about being disabled and less guilty about feeling guilty.
The last two weeks I really let myself experience peace. I made time for myself, made sure I slept enough and did what I felt like doing. And now I realize how much it means to me to have internal space to just be, to do what feels good and to have real attention for the things I am doing. I notice now how much I have missed this internal peace and I am proud that I have found my way back to it
I’m so glad to hear someone else talk about how we get told to focus on the wrong things as we grow up. As children, we’re taught kindness, compassion, generosity and interest in others, yet when we become adults it suddenly seems so hypocritical as everyone says to watch out for yourself and do what benefits you most without thinking about others as much, if at all. We really need to remember early lessons in kindness all the time 💜
💜 Nowadays so many people run from deep conversations, and they tell me that I take life too seriously. Thank you for reminding me once again that trying to understand everything better is one of the most fulfilling things in this life, and for making me feel less alone in this process! 🌌
thank you for this jade💜 i kind of feel like im plateauing when it comes to internal growth… it feels like i know most of my behaviors through and through but i still have a hard time showing myself that im worthy and deserving of love by actually communicating my needs with other people and taking up space:/ i think what’s in front of me rn is starting to expand this growth beyond just myself in order to actually rewire my mind and grow internally
your realisation that you're queer and all those obsessions with other girls in school were actually crushes is EXACTLY what I experienced! I always blamed my low self-confidence for looking up to the pretty and popular girls, but turns out my bisexuality is also to blame for that and not just my lack of confidence at the time. now looking back everything makes so much sense and it's almost funny (to me) to realise that. and as for queer/lesbians artists, I'd also totally recommend Hayley Kiyoko. all her music is great, and especially the song 'girls like girls' is such an anthem!
Omg same! Thanks for sharing. I still struggle with imposter syndrom like every day and reading/hearing that others had the exact same experience feels so validating.
I resonate with this! It’s been a long journey to unpack (and I’m still unpacking) what I thought was “weird obsessions” but instead were crushes. Thank you for the music suggestion too!
My internal celebration is the fact that I’ve had a more positive mindset lately with my mental health which must be showing externally because I’ve been making more friends and people have been complementing my energy and positive aura from just one meeting which must be a good sign I think
I've grown so much during the last 5 years of university and living alone on being kind to myself and having more positive thoughts and I'm so proud and happy about it. 💜
Jade, thank you for talking about things so vulnerably and honestly at your own pace, especially "embracing queerness" and mental health, these videos are exceptionally impactful, thank you! 💜💜💜
6 หลายเดือนก่อน +22
I’m a Brazilian living in a small town, struggling to find people who want to engage in that kind of conversations. People who enjoy exploring awareness, challenging situations, and growth. I’m super grateful for this corner of the internet. Thank you 💜
I also recently broke up with my ex and I've been trying to cope with it. Some days I'm perfect, some days I feel sad and hurt. One achievement regarding this breakup was that I muted their stories yesterday because I realized that seeing them and what they're up to is causing me more harm than good. I'm excited to get to know my single self and spend time with her doing exciting activities. 💜
Happy Pride Jade!! From one sapphic girlie who is about to move into her first house with her girlfriend and start her first job after finishing uni this year in a charity for engaging disadvantaged students, I'm jointly so excited and nervous about the future! But I know I'm not feeling alone in this and being 22 has never felt more free!! Sending love and all the positive, gem-embezzled vibes!! 🏳🌈💎💗
what you said about embracing queerness and how hard it was in your teens to express yourself is something SO relatable!! i was one of 'the lucky ones' and knew i was queer at the tender age of 11 but ive been closted to most of the people in my life since then. sexuality is such a personal journey for everyone esp queer ppl!! i constantly have to remind myself that i dont owe anyone anything and i have time!! one day, i'll go to pride and be so proud sending so much love jade 🦋 💜
likewise I knew from a young age but it doesn't always make it easier depending on your life situation. I'm still in the closet to my religious fam but that's about it these days
"Fostering the non-doing", what an amazing sentence Jade! I'm watching this video at the exact right time because I am actively working on enjoying the current moment. I try to focus on my inners feeling and outer mundane surroundings and experiences. Life is so incredibly beautiful! But sometimes as humans our brain takes a trip to the future or the past, then it is on us to reconnect with our body to experience now at the fullest 💜
One on my most cherished internal achievements has been a new found trust in myself. I can now voice my feelings and stand up for myself in conflict which feels SO energizing! Your videos have inspired me to show up for myself and listen to my intuition. Thank you from the bottom of my heart 💜
💜 My internal celebration is the realization that I have been loving life, and wanting to live more than ever. It has not always been the case, but last week, even with some difficulties in life, I realised I can and should live life for myself and that it can be great with the light and the dark, the good and the bad. Also I'm so proud of you Jade, your content always brings a little more light to my life and that's beautiful. Keep going girl, you're on the right path 🦋
On a day of stress and feeling low, taking a lunch break and seeing this put a smile on my face. Your words are always so inspiring and have such a poetic quality that is so calming ☺️ 🦋. Also - I loved reading Eat, Pray, Love!
💜 I really learned being comfortable being on my win. I love so many people and I love having them around me, but ai don’t need them. I wouldn’t ever want to go without them, but I know that if I’d have to, I could. That really gives me peace.
Hello Jade! I'm really glad to hear that you cherish these moments of life💜This is my first time commenting on one of your videos, despite being a longtime viewer. One of your instagram story earlier this year inspired me to write down one "casual magic of the day" daily, and I haven't missed a day since. I've recently started taking more solo walks, especially in the mornings, and I've found joy and purpose in feeding the stray cats in my neighborhood. It's become a meaningful part of my life. Hope you're having a wonderful day 🦋 Greetings from Greece!
Thank you for being so vulnerable and open, watching your videos makes me feel so seen. Also really glad to see you feeling more settled and positive, you look beautiful in this video ❤
I am currently reading Eat Pray Love, and whilst reading today I thought, Jade would really enjoy this! How incredible it is that then I was drawn to watch this video to find you have read it! Ive recently graduated from university and feel so relieved that I'm not alone❤
Loved this! Helped pick me up. The realisation that when I am angry/arguing with a family member, the good parts of us both still exist, the reasons we love and like one another remain true and shouldn't be forgotten or entirely overshadowed (as I tend to let it by default, leading to alotta feelings of despair and further anger/distraught). Often just remembering this simple fact can make remaining calm during conflict and its resolution so much easier.
Been following you for a few years now, and it's been a pleasure to witness change and growth in your journey. You teach and inspire us to work hard, but also to look within ourselves, enjoy our own being and share our world with the people around us. So thank you, i hope to be part of this community for many more years ⭐⭐❤❤
💜Needed and related to this vid sm. As a student, I have noticed that this is the first summer in many many years that I have truly been able to relax and do nothing with extremely little guilt! I can even sit with that guilt and boredom and remind myself that this feeling, too, shall pass :) Thanks Jade, lovely as usual!
This channel really is my safe space. I've watched you Jade through everything and yet in every state of your life you're such an inspiration for me.💜💜💜
Jade, I am so pleased how much you grew as a person mentally. You graduated from University and you are learning how to live on your own and be able to do stuff independently. I wish you a good trip in Germany.
I'm getting better at taking care of myself by getting more sunlight, water, exercise and getting out the depressive hole I can find myself in. I feel my confidence growing, little by little we are getting there.
I’m so sorry you’re feeling low. 🦋 thank your for sharing so vulnerably!! Sending you the biggest hug and the reminder that you’re enough, exactly as you are. I hope you find lighter days soon
It's so nice to hear that you're doing so much better Jade! I am personally celebrating being single more and more, because it is really scary sometimes that I'm actually doing fine without dating or a relationship or even without having a crush on someone. Trying to focus more on my new job, my friendships and my hobbies :))🌻💐🏵
The achievement I'm celebrating: I'm becoming a more patient person. I tend to take a breath automatically now when I'm stressed or I feel like I want to snap at someone. I don't always get it right, but feel closer to my inner self every day! Casual magic right now: Watching this beautiful video in a hammock on top of the barn I'm working in for the summer on a Camp America programme in North Carolina. Side note - I have literally come to the same realisation about the trials of British indirectness this week! Any tips on handling it as a highly sensitive person? Love you and your channel Jade 💜💜💜
Thank you so much for your energy!💜 I usually never take the time to comment on videos but simply wanted to express my gratitude for your honesty and vulnerability! I'm older than you but I'm really going through similar processes right now. It's so supporting to see people authentically addressing topics like mental health, non violent communication, queerness etc! Vielen Dank und hab eine wunderschöne Zeit in Deutschland, Jade! 💜
I'm at 8:05 in the video now and just want to add: being honest and forthright doesn't always make things easier. It can make things much more difficult with people who prefer for you to keep silent because they're benefitting from it in some way. But even if it feels worse in the moment, it will improve things in the long run. Sometimes you will have to leave relationships, jobs, and other situations that are built on you staying silent and not speaking up. Stay rooted in honesty and kindness (and kindness does not mean suppressing appropriate anger) and be brave. It does get easier too with time. Edit: 😉💜
💜 My internal growth: I've always been a "gifted" student and identified so much by my grades. I had a really hard time at uni because all my self-worth disappeared with stress and my grades. I finished my master last year and began working a few months ago... and directly signed up for a formation + certification. I started studying early for the certification (a must with Anki)... and I did not overstress. I did not kill myself during the exam and just after, in the incertitude of the results. I got the result today: I passed. But much more important is the sense of peace I had when entering that exam. "I did the best I could, and it will be okay. Even if I fail, it is not that bad... but everything will be fine, I am prepared".
i learnt i am okay even with rejection-- I have built confidence within myself so that i know that's ok! And i am grateful for the support of the people in my life
You’re so special, Jade! I almost can feel and touch your words and kindness! I’m really happy that you had the courage to say “it” outloud! A huge warm and friendly hug from Brazil, friend! 🇧🇷💜
💜💙💞 i rlly love this video, usually watch your content and never comment but came here to add that i've noticed lately i'm much better at acknowledging my strengths and being proud of myself for little things day to day - esp in the midst of lots of learning new skills and change -- and also that i so relate to coming into my queerness more fully in my mid 20s like you
Jade, I love you so much. I watch your videos either when I have nothing on my mind or I have too much on my mind and they end up giving me the comfort I need, EVERY TIME. So happy to see you grow into this gem of a human being. Thank you for reminding us to be mindful to be connected to our humane❤
💜💜💜 I haven’t stumbled by your channel in a while again so I’ve got most of your recent videos just queued ^^ You’re just such an inspiration, I’ve been working, for a good while now, on my self-improvement and self-love journey, sometimes journalling and looking back at previous entries. The growth I was able to see in myself, even with repeated events or bad feelings, is just unmatched. I’ve also added the books you mentioned to my TBR and hope to read it soon!
I really felt that struggle of not being able to see your inner growth so I made it visible. I journal every night and for a while I would put a star sticker in the back of my book which I called 'my sky of social confidence' every time I did something that pushed my comfort zone. Every tiny act where I was trying to be more myself in the face of who I thought I should be. I've since run out of stickers (💪🥹) and the notebook is full but it's in my head and everytime I do something that challenges me to honour being myself I mentally add a star to my galaxy. Anyway if anyone wants that visual representation: your never to old for stickers! Anyway lovely video Jade, I'm so happy I found this corner of the internet years ago, it's so wonderful❤
I have grown in the last few years - I learned so much about self-estem, my own worth, ... I think I am now a lot more conscious about my inner crtitque and d´kinder to myself. Furthermore I have so many little lessons I have collected in the last few years, those definitely enrich my life every day.
Hi💜Lately I've noticed my desire to chase certain people in order to feel loved.I also get so disapointed and feel so empty after thouse interactions because they clearly does not satisfy the need to be held,i gues ive started to come to terms with the fact that I just have to stop and feel the pain.I started not just spending time in nature but also sitting and simply observing, not trying to make the most of the time ouside the house by reading and something else.You're literally glowing Jade, im so happy for you.💜
💜 I loved this video! I needed to hear what you told really! You make such an impact to me! Thank you thank you thank you! I am 21 years old, I went on Erasmus last semestre and it was the most important and great experience of my life! It was also scary, but I needed it to start to grow, which process I am going through now, to be the best version of myself!! Again, I loved this video!! 💜

💜 i want to celebrate my internal growth here.. i have made to this point where i really love to be with myself i realised that i matter too.
thank you for co-creating this beautiful safe space with us jade 💜i'm proud of my internal growth through exam season where i've learnt to be kinder and softer with myself, trusting in my path and being grateful for every little bit of casual magic 🌌
😭😭😭😭 I'm really soooo happy that you put out thee honest and loving videos, they do my heart so good.... I've been feeling scared in the world and not really trusting in love & light anymore and trusting that I can actually feel comfortable in my life but you give me so much hope because the moment I watch your videos, I recognize all that loveliness inside myself too.... I'm so grateful I can watch your videos, really!
Wowww, this comes at the perfect moment. I just had a really difficult conversation with my boyfriend after putting it off for a really long time. Thank you for sharing, we do deserve a medal for growth 🎉💜
This made me realise how much I have grown in the last year! 💜 Thank you for always inspiring me to go do the uncomfortable thing and do the things that serve me in non tangible ways! 🦋Will be sitting down to journal after this video 🐝
💜 I'm normally a silent watcher but this community is so wholesome so I thought I'd actually comment! This video resonates with me so much right now on so many levels. Recently, I have finished my 2nd year at Uni and am going to be studying on exchange next year in Amsterdam. Lots of change coming soon. I love seeing how much I've grown at the end of each academic year - and this year I feel my inner growth develop from term to term. Thank you for your content, it's always such a comfort watching your videos, thank you for being so raw and real with us. It's like your a sister on face time!! All the best to you Jade!
💜 We're loving to watch your beautiful journey of inner growth, Jade. I relate to you in so many ways, you could never imagine. Thanks for being this amazing human being you are💜
💜I love this video!! One part of internal growth for me is knowing that a bad day / a bad moment does not mean a bad life. I used to get so upset when I was feeling a little bit lower / sad / unmotivated for part of a day and think oh no my life is horrible - but now most days I accept those negative feelings so much better, I know they are normal and I will feel better again 💜
Hiii, I’ve been watching your videos for four years now, but now they resonate with me more than ever. In three weeks I’ll be moving out to live on my own for the first time in my life and I’ll be starting university in October. Your videos about life in London and making all these big decisions really help me. For the first time I feel like someone is honest about the challenges of starting a new chapter. Four years ago you taught me how to study effectively and manage time in high school, now I feel so understood when you talk about your life. You’re like an older sister to me, one that I’ve never had. Thank you sooo much, I send you millions of hugs. 💜
💜 such a lovely video! I'm 19 years old und finished school last year. I went trough a phase of self doubt und struggles. After two weeks of biking in nature, i finally feel like I don't need to be fixed anymore. I'm good as I am, my body deserves to be loved by me and the world can see who I am. Honestly, i often hesitate to say it like that but it feels really liberating in this moment to announce it in this save corner. Thank you so much for the passion you put into all of this and the braveness to share your deep thoughts with us! 💜
💜 The way your words resonate in me and my heart is crazy. The more I watch your videos the more I realize that I have actually learn how to grow with you, and your words. Everything about observing how I feel, what really serve me, how can I solve this and using every difficult moment to empower me. Studying hard yes but take of myself too. Life views. There are so many things I've learned through you and I'm so grateful! Those videos are such a safe place for many people, thank you Jade 💕
Hi Jade, it's so helpful watching your videos, I'm half-way through my a-levels at the moment and it's so easy to just base my worth on external goals! (like those a stars), but watching your videos truly inspire me to become a better version of myself internally, and to not base myself on my grades - all your videos make me so happy! its like I'm talking to a friend! :))
I'm proud of myself for working with my therapist on not trying to take responsibility for everything that goes wrong in my life, acknowledging I'm in a toxic working environment, and making the decision to leave 💜
💜 I'm proud that I appreciate and value the little everyday things far more often than I used to. And learning to listen to my social anxiety and put it aside when I want to connect with someone.
I'm finishing up my first year of university+ living on my own (on weekdays), and I have grown so much in independence and confidence. For the third period, I also decided to take 1 course instead of 2, because i was feeling very tired and had a lot of headaches. It was the best thing i could have done. I didn't have to stress about school planning, rediscovered crocheting and most importantly, I as good as lost my fear of failure. Just like that. I did not loose my drive to excel, yet I am able to accept if what I submit is short of perfect. Why? Because I learnt to enjoy other things not as a form of escapism, but as an independent thing/ activity that I want to spend time and energy on
playing like a little kid more & being more gentle with “negative” emotions like nerves and sadness! trying to love them and let them serve me instead of being annoyed they are there :) love the lighting of this video jade! you are so special and i hope celebrating internal achievements can become something we all teach out kids & loved ones. 💜🪁
Love this so much 💜 I found your channel as I separated from someone despite still loving each other because we could see it wasnt the right fit and it was so painful and now I'm 6 months on and I can feel the growth myself. Cheering you on every day lovely :)
Damn Jade. I am in awe of you as a person. I am so impressed by you and the life that you are creating for yourself. I am in a similiar stage of life and facing a lot of the same struggles. Listening to you talk about your perspective helps me reframe things for myself so much. I struggle with having a positive view on life and all that comes with it a lot of time (struggling with PMDD for half the month) and getting that outside view from someone who does SUCH A GOOD JOB at making the most of their struggles and growing from it... it is so helpful. Please keep up with creating these wonderful videos. You are doing wonderful. I am impressed and inspired by the way you handle things. I am very grateful that you share your thoughts like this. It motivates me to not give up on myself and instead work on creating a beautiful life for myself. And to also let in some magic between all the hard work :)
I find myself gravitating towards your content whenever I am feeling low. Within the past year I have come to terms that sometimes it is better to release my hold on someone and remember the good times than cling to those good times as a way of excusing their actions. I've cut a lot of people out of my life and I feel like I have found some inner peace in prioritizing my mental health. As much as it hurts to let those people go, it was hurting more to hold on. I'm proud of you and how far you have come Jade💜
💜💜love this. the way you’re embracing your true self and accepting who you are! encourages me to do the same and be more authentic to myself. sending love and thank you for putting out this content
As my time in a student city I've called 'home' for the past 5+ years comes to an end, reminders of how much I've grown keep popping up everywhere. While I will miss this place, this beautiful life I've painstakingly created for myself and most of all these wonderful people, I am incredibly proud of the internal growth no one can see: I've become more independent, I've fostered friendships through rough times, I've learned to set boundaries, I've learned to not care so much what others think and don't let it stifle me anymore. I've become loud and outspoken. I've protected my heart and well being (even if that means temporarily putting a big dent into said heart). I'm learning to accept uncertainty and embrace change. I am happy on my own, even when everyone around me has paired off. I'm learning to be there for others while also putting myself first. Sounds nice but boy oh boy was it a hard journey 😂. Still, I wouldn't want to miss it
In the last couple of weeks I was able to question my idea of the next years and even of my future as a whole, I'm really scared to make some life choices that I never thought were for me but I'm grateful because I know this fear won't stop me, I'm grateful because I'm now in a place where I'm able to put aside my expectations and do what is good for me💜
It's so nice to hear about you finding out your own identity everything else. I'm glad you're slowly figuring out things & feel safe enough to share with us about your journey 💜💜💜
💜 thank you so much for this video! As a girl in my 20s I need these kind of videos, they're so reassuring, I just resonate with so much you say! Please make more like this🥰 sending so much love
Two and a half years ago I had severe depression and it is still hard to recognize and feel positive things. What makes it more challenging is people my age getting their first promotion, buying a house or having a baby. They're going on with their lives and hit societal milestones, whilst I'm dealing with this depression I never could have foreseen. I can see what they have is not what I desire, rather it's this feeling of not belonging that gnaws. I'm learning not to compare, and to focus on what's in front of me. The videos you share, remind me of what i needed to hear. So thank you, Jade, for creating a space where I do feel like I belong, and with that I want to celebrate that I'm still here, trying 💜
I'm not good with words But during this challenging period of my life This place that you so kindly created has been extremely valuable and important I'm very thankful to you 💜🌸🌼🌞
🦋 love love love this! I’ve also grown so much this past year and it’s amazing to see someone publicly acknowledging and celebrating their growth 🫡🥹 P.S. where are the lights in your room from?!
I just LOVED video! I just finished my first year at Uni abroad in Great Britain (I'm form Germany) and I often feel for one that I do not fit in with the culture here, like how things are just so superficial/ not talked about and for the other I feel like i have literally had an academic glow down... But your video reminded me of how much I personally am growing, r to be okay with myself and not defining my worth by the opinions of others or my grades. SO thank you !!!
Thank you for being so vulnerable 💜 discovering and embracing your queerness can definitely be a challenge and I am glad you seem so much more at home in yourself ✨️ After finding out my own flavour of queerness (aroace) about 3,4 years ago and set out to connect to a local aspec group about 2 years ago - which was one of the best things I have ever done! It has given me so much joy, understanding and kindness to others as well as and maybe mainly myself ^^ I had the goal to make friends and I can safely say that I am succeeding :) so right now I feel like I am noticing the benefits from myself growing, being brave and reaching out to others. Thank you again for sharing 🦋
I remember that after you've graduated, you shared with us that you don't know where your TH-cam career is going now or if it is even going somewhere because you cannot do study content anymore. But I truly think that your self-observation and reflection journey is so valuable to us that i think this might be the direction you're heading towards! I am genuinely happy to see you like this and am so grateful that you share your journey with us! Have a wonderful day you all:))
💜 I am so insanely proud of myself for working through my internalized ableism. I’m finally starting to feel less guilty about being disabled and less guilty about feeling guilty.
wow, thank you SO much for sharing. this is utterly huge
The last two weeks I really let myself experience peace. I made time for myself, made sure I slept enough and did what I felt like doing. And now I realize how much it means to me to have internal space to just be, to do what feels good and to have real attention for the things I am doing. I notice now how much I have missed this internal peace and I am proud that I have found my way back to it
I’m so glad to hear someone else talk about how we get told to focus on the wrong things as we grow up. As children, we’re taught kindness, compassion, generosity and interest in others, yet when we become adults it suddenly seems so hypocritical as everyone says to watch out for yourself and do what benefits you most without thinking about others as much, if at all. We really need to remember early lessons in kindness all the time 💜
i am so happy to see you all bright and glowing, go you jade!! 🌷🫶🏻🌻
eeeeep thank you thank you!! 🥹🌻✨💜🌞
💜 Nowadays so many people run from deep conversations, and they tell me that I take life too seriously. Thank you for reminding me once again that trying to understand everything better is one of the most fulfilling things in this life, and for making me feel less alone in this process! 🌌
thank you for this jade💜 i kind of feel like im plateauing when it comes to internal growth… it feels like i know most of my behaviors through and through but i still have a hard time showing myself that im worthy and deserving of love by actually communicating my needs with other people and taking up space:/ i think what’s in front of me rn is starting to expand this growth beyond just myself in order to actually rewire my mind and grow internally

One on my most cherished internal achievements has been a new found trust in myself. I can now voice my feelings and stand up for myself in conflict which feels SO energizing! Your videos have inspired me to show up for myself and listen to my intuition. Thank you from the bottom of my heart 💜
💜 honestly, i’ve felt more peaceful. my head is clearer, im less quick to anger and ive found ways to help manage my anxiety. proud of myself
💜 My internal celebration is the realization that I have been loving life, and wanting to live more than ever. It has not always been the case, but last week, even with some difficulties in life, I realised I can and should live life for myself and that it can be great with the light and the dark, the good and the bad. Also I'm so proud of you Jade, your content always brings a little more light to my life and that's beautiful. Keep going girl, you're on the right path 🦋
On a day of stress and feeling low, taking a lunch break and seeing this put a smile on my face. Your words are always so inspiring and have such a poetic quality that is so calming ☺️ 🦋. Also - I loved reading Eat, Pray, Love!
Thank you Jade. I needed to be reminded that internal growth, even just a bit, is a huge and beautiful thing 💜
💜 I really learned being comfortable being on my win. I love so many people and I love having them around me, but ai don’t need them. I wouldn’t ever want to go without them, but I know that if I’d have to, I could. That really gives me peace.
Hello Jade! I'm really glad to hear that you cherish these moments of life💜This is my first time commenting on one of your videos, despite being a longtime viewer. One of your instagram story earlier this year inspired me to write down one "casual magic of the day" daily, and I haven't missed a day since.
I've recently started taking more solo walks, especially in the mornings, and I've found joy and purpose in feeding the stray cats in my neighborhood. It's become a meaningful part of my life.
Hope you're having a wonderful day 🦋 Greetings from Greece!
Thank you for being so vulnerable and open, watching your videos makes me feel so seen. Also really glad to see you feeling more settled and positive, you look beautiful in this video ❤
I am currently reading Eat Pray Love, and whilst reading today I thought, Jade would really enjoy this! How incredible it is that then I was drawn to watch this video to find you have read it! Ive recently graduated from university and feel so relieved that I'm not alone❤
💜💜💜 I love how vulnerable and honest you share your journey. And I want to truly thank you for that!
Loved this! Helped pick me up.
The realisation that when I am angry/arguing with a family member, the good parts of us both still exist, the reasons we love and like one another remain true and shouldn't be forgotten or entirely overshadowed (as I tend to let it by default, leading to alotta feelings of despair and further anger/distraught). Often just remembering this simple fact can make remaining calm during conflict and its resolution so much easier.
Proud of you, Jade! 💛
Been following you for a few years now, and it's been a pleasure to witness change and growth in your journey. You teach and inspire us to work hard, but also to look within ourselves, enjoy our own being and share our world with the people around us. So thank you, i hope to be part of this community for many more years ⭐⭐❤❤
💜Needed and related to this vid sm. As a student, I have noticed that this is the first summer in many many years that I have truly been able to relax and do nothing with extremely little guilt! I can even sit with that guilt and boredom and remind myself that this feeling, too, shall pass :) Thanks Jade, lovely as usual!
This channel really is my safe space. I've watched you Jade through everything and yet in every state of your life you're such an inspiration for me.💜💜💜
Jade, I am so pleased how much you grew as a person mentally. You graduated from University and you are learning how to live on your own and be able to do stuff independently. I wish you a good trip in Germany.
I'm getting better at taking care of myself by getting more sunlight, water, exercise and getting out the depressive hole I can find myself in. I feel my confidence growing, little by little we are getting there.
A new video from you today is just what i needed Jade❤️❤️ Feeling so depressed today. Thank you for exsisting. I’m proud of you girl.💜
I’m so sorry you’re feeling low. 🦋 thank your for sharing so vulnerably!! Sending you the biggest hug and the reminder that you’re enough, exactly as you are. I hope you find lighter days soon
Thank you so much Jade❤️ I hope it gets better soon. You are also enough in every way. Biggest hug back.
Hi Jade 🦋 thank you for all the recent videos they've really helped me feel less alone in my own struggles 💜
It's so nice to hear that you're doing so much better Jade! I am personally celebrating being single more and more, because it is really scary sometimes that I'm actually doing fine without dating or a relationship or even without having a crush on someone. Trying to focus more on my new job, my friendships and my hobbies :))🌻💐🏵
The achievement I'm celebrating: I'm becoming a more patient person. I tend to take a breath automatically now when I'm stressed or I feel like I want to snap at someone. I don't always get it right, but feel closer to my inner self every day!
Casual magic right now: Watching this beautiful video in a hammock on top of the barn I'm working in for the summer on a Camp America programme in North Carolina. Side note - I have literally come to the same realisation about the trials of British indirectness this week! Any tips on handling it as a highly sensitive person?
Love you and your channel Jade
💜💜💜
thank u so much for the timestamps 🥹 also, love the background! this is like a chill asmr video making me feel so calm haha 🤭
awhhh thank YOU for appreciating them!! 🦋 I love structure too much hehehe
Its VERY asmr!!!!!! ✨✨
Thank you so much for your energy!💜 I usually never take the time to comment on videos but simply wanted to express my gratitude for your honesty and vulnerability! I'm older than you but I'm really going through similar processes right now. It's so supporting to see people authentically addressing topics like mental health, non violent communication, queerness etc! Vielen Dank und hab eine wunderschöne Zeit in Deutschland, Jade! 💜
I'm at 8:05 in the video now and just want to add: being honest and forthright doesn't always make things easier. It can make things much more difficult with people who prefer for you to keep silent because they're benefitting from it in some way. But even if it feels worse in the moment, it will improve things in the long run. Sometimes you will have to leave relationships, jobs, and other situations that are built on you staying silent and not speaking up. Stay rooted in honesty and kindness (and kindness does not mean suppressing appropriate anger) and be brave. It does get easier too with time. Edit: 😉💜
💜 My internal growth: I've always been a "gifted" student and identified so much by my grades. I had a really hard time at uni because all my self-worth disappeared with stress and my grades. I finished my master last year and began working a few months ago... and directly signed up for a formation + certification. I started studying early for the certification (a must with Anki)... and I did not overstress. I did not kill myself during the exam and just after, in the incertitude of the results. I got the result today: I passed. But much more important is the sense of peace I had when entering that exam. "I did the best I could, and it will be okay. Even if I fail, it is not that bad... but everything will be fine, I am prepared".
i learnt i am okay even with rejection-- I have built confidence within myself so that i know that's ok! And i am grateful for the support of the people in my life
You’re so special, Jade! I almost can feel and touch your words and kindness! I’m really happy that you had the courage to say “it” outloud!
A huge warm and friendly hug from Brazil, friend! 🇧🇷💜
💜💙💞 i rlly love this video, usually watch your content and never comment but came here to add that i've noticed lately i'm much better at acknowledging my strengths and being proud of myself for little things day to day - esp in the midst of lots of learning new skills and change -- and also that i so relate to coming into my queerness more fully in my mid 20s like you
Jade, I love you so much. I watch your videos either when I have nothing on my mind or I have too much on my mind and they end up giving me the comfort I need, EVERY TIME. So happy to see you grow into this gem of a human being. Thank you for reminding us to be mindful to be connected to our humane❤
💜💜💜 I haven’t stumbled by your channel in a while again so I’ve got most of your recent videos just queued ^^ You’re just such an inspiration, I’ve been working, for a good while now, on my self-improvement and self-love journey, sometimes journalling and looking back at previous entries. The growth I was able to see in myself, even with repeated events or bad feelings, is just unmatched. I’ve also added the books you mentioned to my TBR and hope to read it soon!
I really felt that struggle of not being able to see your inner growth so I made it visible. I journal every night and for a while I would put a star sticker in the back of my book which I called 'my sky of social confidence' every time I did something that pushed my comfort zone. Every tiny act where I was trying to be more myself in the face of who I thought I should be. I've since run out of stickers (💪🥹) and the notebook is full but it's in my head and everytime I do something that challenges me to honour being myself I mentally add a star to my galaxy. Anyway if anyone wants that visual representation: your never to old for stickers! Anyway lovely video Jade, I'm so happy I found this corner of the internet years ago, it's so wonderful❤
I have grown in the last few years - I learned so much about self-estem, my own worth, ... I think I am now a lot more conscious about my inner crtitque and d´kinder to myself. Furthermore I have so many little lessons I have collected in the last few years, those definitely enrich my life every day.
Hi💜Lately I've noticed my desire to chase certain people in order to feel loved.I also get so disapointed and feel so empty after thouse interactions because they clearly does not satisfy the need to be held,i gues ive started to come to terms with the fact that I just have to stop and feel the pain.I started not just spending time in nature but also sitting and simply observing, not trying to make the most of the time ouside the house by reading and something else.You're literally glowing Jade, im so happy for you.💜
As a fellow avoidant of handling difficult conversations this first portion of the video mad eme feel very seen. Thank you jade💜💜
You are my safe space on the internet💜 I’d love to see more in depth about healing from a break up, going through one myself
💜 I loved this video! I needed to hear what you told really! You make such an impact to me! Thank you thank you thank you! I am 21 years old, I went on Erasmus last semestre and it was the most important and great experience of my life! It was also scary, but I needed it to start to grow, which process I am going through now, to be the best version of myself!! Again, I loved this video!! 💜
💜 i want to celebrate my internal growth here..
i have made to this point where i really love to be with myself
i realised that i matter too.
Yesss we love the growth and openness! So glad you are having a wonderful time discovering and living!
thank you for co-creating this beautiful safe space with us jade 💜i'm proud of my internal growth through exam season where i've learnt to be kinder and softer with myself, trusting in my path and being grateful for every little bit of casual magic 🌌
😭😭😭😭 I'm really soooo happy that you put out thee honest and loving videos, they do my heart so good.... I've been feeling scared in the world and not really trusting in love & light anymore and trusting that I can actually feel comfortable in my life but you give me so much hope because the moment I watch your videos, I recognize all that loveliness inside myself too.... I'm so grateful I can watch your videos, really!
Wowww, this comes at the perfect moment. I just had a really difficult conversation with my boyfriend after putting it off for a really long time. Thank you for sharing, we do deserve a medal for growth 🎉💜
this video relaxed me so much i just love your outlook to life! 💜
This made me realise how much I have grown in the last year! 💜 Thank you for always inspiring me to go do the uncomfortable thing and do the things that serve me in non tangible ways! 🦋Will be sitting down to journal after this video 🐝
Your videos are my casual magic 🦋✨🩷
🥹🥹🥹 this means the world!! also hiiii 🦋🦋
@@UnJadedJade hii, thank you so much for your videos, they always boost my mood and inspire me to listen to myself 🌸🌟
💜 I'm normally a silent watcher but this community is so wholesome so I thought I'd actually comment!
This video resonates with me so much right now on so many levels. Recently, I have finished my 2nd year at Uni and am going to be studying on exchange next year in Amsterdam. Lots of change coming soon. I love seeing how much I've grown at the end of each academic year - and this year I feel my inner growth develop from term to term. Thank you for your content, it's always such a comfort watching your videos, thank you for being so raw and real with us. It's like your a sister on face time!! All the best to you Jade!
Happy Pride Month Jade and everyone else ❤️
💜 We're loving to watch your beautiful journey of inner growth, Jade. I relate to you in so many ways, you could never imagine. Thanks for being this amazing human being you are💜
💜I love this video!! One part of internal growth for me is knowing that a bad day / a bad moment does not mean a bad life. I used to get so upset when I was feeling a little bit lower / sad / unmotivated for part of a day and think oh no my life is horrible - but now most days I accept those negative feelings so much better, I know they are normal and I will feel better again 💜
So proud of you Jade! You brighten the day.
Hiii, I’ve been watching your videos for four years now, but now they resonate with me more than ever. In three weeks I’ll be moving out to live on my own for the first time in my life and I’ll be starting university in October. Your videos about life in London and making all these big decisions really help me. For the first time I feel like someone is honest about the challenges of starting a new chapter. Four years ago you taught me how to study effectively and manage time in high school, now I feel so understood when you talk about your life. You’re like an older sister to me, one that I’ve never had. Thank you sooo much, I send you millions of hugs. 💜
💜 such a lovely video!
I'm 19 years old und finished school last year. I went trough a phase of self doubt und struggles. After two weeks of biking in nature, i finally feel like I don't need to be fixed anymore. I'm good as I am, my body deserves to be loved by me and the world can see who I am. Honestly, i often hesitate to say it like that but it feels really liberating in this moment to announce it in this save corner. Thank you so much for the passion you put into all of this and the braveness to share your deep thoughts with us! 💜
💜 The way your words resonate in me and my heart is crazy. The more I watch your videos the more I realize that I have actually learn how to grow with you, and your words. Everything about observing how I feel, what really serve me, how can I solve this and using every difficult moment to empower me. Studying hard yes but take of myself too. Life views. There are so many things I've learned through you and I'm so grateful!
Those videos are such a safe place for many people, thank you Jade 💕
Hi Jade, it's so helpful watching your videos, I'm half-way through my a-levels at the moment and it's so easy to just base my worth on external goals! (like those a stars), but watching your videos truly inspire me to become a better version of myself internally, and to not base myself on my grades - all your videos make me so happy! its like I'm talking to a friend! :))
I'm proud of myself for working with my therapist on not trying to take responsibility for everything that goes wrong in my life, acknowledging I'm in a toxic working environment, and making the decision to leave 💜
Always feel so seen 💜💜 our growth is so often something we don’t see, but it is such a fundamental thing. I’ve loved growing with you over the years!
💜This video is literally so relaxing. Thank you Jade
💜 I'm proud that I appreciate and value the little everyday things far more often than I used to. And learning to listen to my social anxiety and put it aside when I want to connect with someone.
I'm finishing up my first year of university+ living on my own (on weekdays), and I have grown so much in independence and confidence. For the third period, I also decided to take 1 course instead of 2, because i was feeling very tired and had a lot of headaches. It was the best thing i could have done. I didn't have to stress about school planning, rediscovered crocheting and most importantly, I as good as lost my fear of failure. Just like that.
I did not loose my drive to excel, yet I am able to accept if what I submit is short of perfect. Why? Because I learnt to enjoy other things not as a form of escapism, but as an independent thing/ activity that I want to spend time and energy on
playing like a little kid more & being more gentle with “negative” emotions like nerves and sadness! trying to love them and let them serve me instead of being annoyed they are there :) love the lighting of this video jade! you are so special and i hope celebrating internal achievements can become something we all teach out kids & loved ones. 💜🪁
Love this so much 💜 I found your channel as I separated from someone despite still loving each other because we could see it wasnt the right fit and it was so painful and now I'm 6 months on and I can feel the growth myself. Cheering you on every day lovely :)
Damn Jade. I am in awe of you as a person. I am so impressed by you and the life that you are creating for yourself. I am in a similiar stage of life and facing a lot of the same struggles. Listening to you talk about your perspective helps me reframe things for myself so much. I struggle with having a positive view on life and all that comes with it a lot of time (struggling with PMDD for half the month) and getting that outside view from someone who does SUCH A GOOD JOB at making the most of their struggles and growing from it... it is so helpful. Please keep up with creating these wonderful videos. You are doing wonderful. I am impressed and inspired by the way you handle things. I am very grateful that you share your thoughts like this. It motivates me to not give up on myself and instead work on creating a beautiful life for myself. And to also let in some magic between all the hard work :)
I feel like recently I've been putting a lot less pressure on exam marks and just enjoying life and friendships so much more 💜💜
I’m going to Germany next week too and I’m so so excited about it. Hope you enjoy your adventure there 💜
I find myself gravitating towards your content whenever I am feeling low. Within the past year I have come to terms that sometimes it is better to release my hold on someone and remember the good times than cling to those good times as a way of excusing their actions. I've cut a lot of people out of my life and I feel like I have found some inner peace in prioritizing my mental health. As much as it hurts to let those people go, it was hurting more to hold on. I'm proud of you and how far you have come Jade💜
💜💜love this. the way you’re embracing your true self and accepting who you are! encourages me to do the same and be more authentic to myself. sending love and thank you for putting out this content
As my time in a student city I've called 'home' for the past 5+ years comes to an end, reminders of how much I've grown keep popping up everywhere. While I will miss this place, this beautiful life I've painstakingly created for myself and most of all these wonderful people, I am incredibly proud of the internal growth no one can see: I've become more independent, I've fostered friendships through rough times, I've learned to set boundaries, I've learned to not care so much what others think and don't let it stifle me anymore. I've become loud and outspoken. I've protected my heart and well being (even if that means temporarily putting a big dent into said heart). I'm learning to accept uncertainty and embrace change. I am happy on my own, even when everyone around me has paired off. I'm learning to be there for others while also putting myself first. Sounds nice but boy oh boy was it a hard journey 😂. Still, I wouldn't want to miss it
In the last couple of weeks I was able to question my idea of the next years and even of my future as a whole, I'm really scared to make some life choices that I never thought were for me but I'm grateful because I know this fear won't stop me, I'm grateful because I'm now in a place where I'm able to put aside my expectations and do what is good for me💜
It's so nice to hear about you finding out your own identity everything else. I'm glad you're slowly figuring out things & feel safe enough to share with us about your journey 💜💜💜
💜 thank you so much for this video! As a girl in my 20s I need these kind of videos, they're so reassuring, I just resonate with so much you say! Please make more like this🥰 sending so much love
I am so proud of you, listening to you makes me calm and brings a smile to my face 💜
Two and a half years ago I had severe depression and it is still hard to recognize and feel positive things. What makes it more challenging is people my age getting their first promotion, buying a house or having a baby. They're going on with their lives and hit societal milestones, whilst I'm dealing with this depression I never could have foreseen. I can see what they have is not what I desire, rather it's this feeling of not belonging that gnaws. I'm learning not to compare, and to focus on what's in front of me. The videos you share, remind me of what i needed to hear. So thank you, Jade, for creating a space where I do feel like I belong, and with that I want to celebrate that I'm still here, trying 💜
My internal achievement is that I could forgive myself for many things! And that leads to internal peace and acceptance💜
I'm not good with words
But during this challenging period of my life
This place that you so kindly created has been extremely valuable and important I'm very thankful to you 💜🌸🌼🌞
💜 danke für dein Dasein, liebe Jade! Ich hoffe, du weißt, wie sehr du mein Leben mit diesen Videos bereicherst!
I just want to tell you I LOVED this video and I'm so happy for you and how far you've grown! 💜
💜
Jade, you have been such a role model for me for years. I truly appreciate you.
🦋 love love love this! I’ve also grown so much this past year and it’s amazing to see someone publicly acknowledging and celebrating their growth 🫡🥹 P.S. where are the lights in your room from?!
Your videos boosts my energy. Feels like someone is conveying the unsaid words of my mind through her own experiences and expressions.
I just LOVED video! I just finished my first year at Uni abroad in Great Britain (I'm form Germany) and I often feel for one that I do not fit in with the culture here, like how things are just so superficial/ not talked about and for the other I feel like i have literally had an academic glow down... But your video reminded me of how much I personally am growing, r to be okay with myself and not defining my worth by the opinions of others or my grades. SO thank you !!!
I'm honestly so glad to see you happy, you go girl💕
Thank you for being so vulnerable 💜 discovering and embracing your queerness can definitely be a challenge and I am glad you seem so much more at home in yourself ✨️
After finding out my own flavour of queerness (aroace) about 3,4 years ago and set out to connect to a local aspec group about 2 years ago - which was one of the best things I have ever done! It has given me so much joy, understanding and kindness to others as well as and maybe mainly myself ^^ I had the goal to make friends and I can safely say that I am succeeding :) so right now I feel like I am noticing the benefits from myself growing, being brave and reaching out to others.
Thank you again for sharing 🦋
