- How I shifted my mindset to manifest the life I wanted. Thanks to Squarespace for sponsoring this video! Go to squarespace.com/lynetteadkins for 10% off.
I used to let negative thoughts control my life. I felt discouraged by my situation, bitter towards others, and that I didn't have much control over my life. Eventually I realized I had to make a mindset shift, and appreciate the present to manifest the future I wanted. Tapping into the law of attraction and reprogramming my mind to think more positively completely transformed my life. In this video, I share how I did it!

If you’re looking for that special somebody to change your whole life, look no further than the mirror. 😌
Yes!!
Wow ily
If only she believed that 😬😭
@@pinkunicorn3023 facts he sounds so dumb
Amen brother 🙌🏻
the only downside to reprogramming your mind is how lonely it might get. you start noticing so many things that you must change in order to thrive both mentally & physically. you have to let go of so many people, habits, beliefs. it's a tough process but i truly believe it's worth it.
Girl you is not a game system like huh? 🤣 cant reprogram nothing you can only do better tf. Done got on beyonce’s internet sounding silly 😭!
@@pinkunicorn3023 lmfao it’s a metaphor, you train your mind to think differently 🤨
I honestly coudln‘t agree more. 🙈
@@pinkunicorn3023 are you slow
@@dandimw8242 are you ? 🤣
Disicpline and being consistent is something I need to work on. I have almost all the resources I need to start everything I would like to do, but I get distracted easily or I'll on my phone too much. After watching this video today I WILL be limiting phone time and start doing other things to create my dream life.
Yesss speaking it into existence! You got this!
This is me aswell😭😭
This is literally me!
Literally ME 😭
!!!!!
1. Find that passion
2. Find the essentials and cut out the unnecessary
3. Get rid of the things that ain’t serving u and invest into the things that are
4. manifest or sum
5. Get past things that are holding u back (ur weaknesses)
Make a list or sum kind of the thing that can help u achieve whatever it is u want to achieve
6.
What’s been holding me back ? Overthinking, over strateging and fear of failure
Me. This is me.
I think it’s a lot of people
Jep, it's so bad that everybody around me is letting me know this... :S
fear is the mind killer, i know it may sound dumb but if you keep fearing you will NEVER EVER make steps in your life. you only have one life may as well overcome the fear. :)
Progress is impossible without change; and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything 💯
Yes🙏🏽
Keep believing in yourself slowly it will happen people learn and grown in a different time just have faith and faith can moved mountain 🙏🏽💕😁
Change begins from the mind
agreed. I have a loved one that cannot change their minds, for anything to grow, it's sad, but I love them so much! it's hard, even when I try to help, nothing has worked.
Just wanted to hop in the Melissa posse
Consider your mind to be a garden. Choose today to only “water” the seeds (your dreams, grand vision, positive self image, optimistic outlook on life) and pull out the weeds (doubt, fears, thoughts of inadequacy and other disempowering thoughts) 🪴
-love from a growing youtuber💚
I love this.
Thank you
LOVE THIS!
Yesss to this!! 🙌🏻
I love this!
I am in the process of reprogramming my mind, reparenting myself, and opening my mind to new ideas and creating the life I want to live and being myself in my truest form. The key is being patient with yourself.
I'm really working on the patience part. Sending my love❤️
👏🏻👏🏻 amen sistah ☀️ having self compassion is so important along the journey ✨
LOVE this. reparenting oneself is a huge theme showing up in my personal life lately too. sending love to you 💖
@@almondmilksoda sending love back at ya 💖
This really resonated with me. 🖤 Thanks for sharing.
"Put in the amount of effort you need to keep your job and then clock out." JUST YES TO THIS SENTENCE. This is the year we need to learn to set boundaries between work and personal life, especially when you can be so quickly replaced in your job but life only happens once.
I was just sooooooo stressed this weekend about deadlines etc. and I know better!!!
tik tok is literally holding me back from building my dream life. it just take hours of my time daily and it’s so addictive. thanks to you i’ve just deleted it!! it’s gonna be hard cuz i’m used to scrolling through tiktok whenever i’m bored, but i gonna get out of my comfort zone to create a new one!
Seems like we are all doing this. I literally just deleted fb, IG, and tiktok. These are our biggest hold backs. We all should start there.
I did this with Facebook - it was so toxic anyways bc of my high school town but now I only have Instagram and snap to grow my platform ! I definitely agree that deleted TikTok and Facebook helps
All my social media have been hold me back but lately tiktok has too
@@lizren been off IG for seven days now. new phone ans i don't want to reinstall it. xoxo
The universe showed me this video at the perfect time
🤩 yes!! ✨
“Your current circumstance is a game, play the game…” YES… thank you for that. Exactly what I’m doing right now in my current situation.
A GEM 💎 Lemme write this down.
Yes!! Check out “the game of live and how to play it” by Florence scovel shinn
I think the biggest thing holding me back is my disability. In a society that's so focused on looks, having a facial difference has been tough. But I've been working on myself and I think I'm slowly getting to a better place!
you are so SO beautiful and your videos are really entertaining too
@@tarunika935 Oh my gosh, thank you so much for your sweet reply! I truly appreciate it
I don’t know you but I am proud of you 🥰 I have a disability as well and choose to see it as a blessing in disguise to immediately uncover that what’s for me is for me! I’m wishing you all the success and happiness in the world, you deserve nothing less! 🙏🏾
@@TimoteoDeBaum Awe thanks so much! It is a blessing in disguise! You gotta see the beauty in everything
don’t let anything hold you back!you are beautiful inside and out,just keep seeing the positivity in everything!sending you blessings and wishing you luck in the future💖💖💖
Girl yes, once I learned that you can manifest things effortlessly and this is what I did:
Graduated with a 2.5 GPA in Civil Engineering Degree from Purdue
Worked for the number one Construction Company in the Nation (they never asked for my gpa 🤷🏾♀️) I’m
Retired from Engineering at 27 years old
I put in minimal effort to get by and realized that stressing over a job or degree isn’t worth it. Plus I got everything I wanted and people hated me for it because they saw me put in little work and get the dream job everyone wanted 🤷🏾♀️!
I needed this 🥰
I’m so happy for you, I’m inspired ❤️
Work smarter not harder gf 🤪💕 that makes me really happy and inspired
How did you manifest?
@@najathanice4183 wake up every day and visualize the end goal. For instance, I was in engineering school so I visualized walking across the stage in first person. I was very detailed in my visualization. I heard graduation music, my name and my classmates names, and I felt like I actually graduated so I would cry during my graduation (the more you feel like you did it the better the manifestation). Then when I wake up from my visualization I would go on with my day “as if” it already happened. Because of this it didn’t matter if I failed an exam or missed homework. I truly believed (kept having faith no matter what) that I graduated so I kept that attitude and didn’t look back like ole man I failed that test. I would say “well it all works in my favor”.
It's powerful that you realized this so early in life. Many people don't ever get this. People often wait for someone else to save them, but only you can save yourself, and make sure you lift others up on the way. 💕
So so true
beautifully said sistah! I think it was Oprah that said ‘no one is coming to save you’ It’s interesting though a lot of movies are about being saved by others 🤷🏻♀️ A lot of indoctrination !!
@@LynetteAdkins i really appreciate you making these videos ty.
@@intentionalliving7326, it's a lot about how you look at movies ^^ Sometimes saving someone is a waking call for them, and for others, the power someone put in their life allows someone else to show up and 'save' them from it (at least, it's what I believe. 'Someone can save you, but you need to do your part too, instead of just keep waiting.' I hope it makes sense)
I really like what you said about stop going hard at things that you don’t really need to. It’s so easy to get caught up in thinking we have to go hard at everything even when in reality that can backfire on us. Great video!
Yesss, thank you!
absolutely, letting go is an essential key to the process!
Yes such a great liberating message! Thanks!
The unlearning process is an eye opening process!
It really is!
It is definitely not for the faint of heart, but it is so worth it. We keep added sistah even when it’s a little tough because we are worth it ☀️✨✨
I was reading a book entitled "The Art of Noticing" and the very first page says "PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU PAY ATTENTION TO." And I think this can be used in dream planning, in the positives and negatives of life, by paying attention to the things that give you life and paying attention the the things that take your life. Reprograming starts by noticing, just like you've said; and taking control by staying out of auto-pilot mode. Love this video! I know I need to take more control in the areas that I love.
You can literally become anything through the power of thought. Learning to control your mind is the one of the most important things to try and accomplish.
What’s held me back the most is limiting beliefs caused by my past because i used to have this reputation of someone really shy and had a hard time succeeding at lots of things. I’m now working on changing the little girl mindset in me and transforming, that person is not who i am
^^ same
Nothing wrong with being shy my love, just challenge urself when it os beneficial, i understand u and it is ok
What i feel has been holding me back the most is my childhood trauma connected to my limiting beliefs. I think as a child I was given ideas about life and myself unconsciously by my parents and painful experiences, that shaped the way i coped with life and believed in myself. I am excited to start this journey of reprograming my mind but it always hurts knowing you might have to give up people you love for a while because they are toxic. Could you make a video on how to deal with letting go of family members and or friends that you love and might not be clearly toxic but are for your own health and growth and how to do that. Thank you again soooooo much for this you are a light worker really!
You're literally my free life coach lmao. Always feel so inspired after watching your videos. ❤️
I'm so glad🥺❤️
Amen sistah 😁☀️✨
Saaaaame! Her videos are amazing 😍💖🥰
Mindset makes all the difference, everyone has a different perspective of live. It this so important to ask ourselves what we want out of life whilst leaving aside what other people say ☺️
That’s ALL I do.. that’s why I will be The Greatest😇 & it won’t be long until it’s proven. This Video was just what I needed to take the Right Actions, I am Forever Grateful for Great Spiritual You-tubers like Lynette lol she’s so 🤌🏽Inspirational. 💯
I feel like I am holding myself back the most. I really want to make my TH-cam career a priority I just need to create a plan to make it happen!
You can do it! Speaking it into existence that you will make it happen!
You have got this sistah! We keep at it, one small step at a time! It is OK if it is not perfect ✨
meeeeeee
I can be very pessimistic but I have recently been trying my best to look at things in a positive way and I can already see a change 😀
Yay I am so glad, it's really a day by day thing and not every day will be perfect!
@@LynetteAdkins very true
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 so awesome! Congratulations sistah ☀️
@@intentionalliving7326 thanks
I changed my diet recently and cut out alot of pain in my body. I can also breathe better.
This!!! I'm working on this now!
@@LynetteAdkins I started having my carbs for breakfast and having just vegetables and protein (for me this is meat) for lunch and dinner. Lots of dark leafy greens. Did the trick. 🙂 It is a diet for weightloss but it is helping me with pain.
@@atc35012 THANKS! I live with chronic pain. Three failed spine surgeries. I will do this - need to cut sugar out entirely.
@@davisholman8149 You're welcome. I am not a medical professional. This worked for me but was not medical advice. I hope it works for you too.
That is amazing! Congratulations sistah! I have found that taking charge of the health affects positively pretty much every other area of life! Keep up the awesome work 👏🏻☀️✨✨
I always tell my self what is relevant cuz any thing evil and criticism just doesn’t need to exist
Perception of life is everything 🙏🏻
🙌🏻🤩 beautifully put! ✨✨
I love when you share some of your wisdom. I am in my 30s and let me tell you, I have learned alot from people younger than me. Your videos have inspired me so much and I appreciate your realness. Thank you!
I am so glad, thank YOU!
Amen sistah! Age got nothing to do with wisdom! ☀️✨✨
“Your current circumstance is a game” 💯
What holds me back the most is the fact that I am a people pleaser. I honestly don’t like doing what I “need” to do or doing something that I do not personally want to do it makes me feel trapped n stuckz
It's amazing how our thoughts can really change us
I truly want to be an artist but I was always taught go to school so I didn’t take my artistry seriously , now I know that that’s my passion and I’m taking is serious now .... it’s the only thing I truly love doing
That is so awesome! congratulations! 👏🏻👏🏻☀️
That’s so crazy I’ve been unconsciously on this journey of changing my mind and where is it a breath of fresh air realizing that what I was making a step in the right direction. I started feeling bad for lacking in work but now I realize no they deserve my bare minimum and my real job... art deserves all my attention
What holds me back the most is the fact that I am a people pleaser. I honestly don’t like doing what I “need” to do or doing something that I do not personally want to do it makes me feel trapped & stuck. I feel forced to do things because I don’t want to hurt people feelings and it sucks because I am good, whole-hearted person so the fact that I have to reset my whole mindset, got me feeling like I don’t know who I am if it’s not to please people
being a super sceptic and thinking that "nothing is ever working for me" and so my reality kept mirroring that back to me
cactus here with some advice.. stop thinking your worthless and do something.. weather its paint a hand and sale it for $5.. do something and get some dopamine.. your life wont change but you'll be happier
I feel like being situations you despise actually breed the necessity for change. Like when I was working 10-12 hr shifts at a covid testing centre earlier this year, it forced me to reevaluate my life in detail, I had so much time to think! I got so so sick of the job I knew I had to find an alternative, I don't know if I would've dove head first into content creation if I hadn't been pushed to my mental limit through a job I hated.
Thank you for sharing your journey Lynette, I always look forward to your videos, your perception of the world is growing in such a beautiful way and I absolutely love it!
Sending you lots of love all the way from London, UK!
This 🎯 everything happens for you and not to you, sometimes we need to go through hardships to see clearly what we do not want and make the necessary changes to be where we want to be. Sending you love and positive vibes 🤗
This is so true!! Like we can have gratitude for the parts of life that don't fulfill us bc they often show us what we DO want. Rooting for you! Thank you!!
That is SO true!!! It gives you a nice kick up your ass and makes you move.
this year was my year of job hopping and i don’t regret it for a second. i’m happy someone gave it a name lol
This video came right on time, ( it’s giving very much divine timing) I’ve been thinking about changing my current mindset (which is really negative and pessimistic) to a more positive one, I realized that I have a lot of big and exciting goals that I wanna achieve but I can’t do that without the right mindset and I’ve been craving a change for a long time, and amazing video
Yesss divine timing is so real! You are so capable of reaching your goals and I'm so glad this could be helpful, wishing you all the best!
That is so awesome to have that awareness👏🏻👏🏻 some people get it late in life, and some never do! Congratulations on your journey ahead sistah ☀️✨✨
This is such a great perspective shift, I think it can also go the other way as well! I've had clients who when they're really honest with themselves, they're like "who am I to implement health habits, mindset shifts, etc. - to get to live the life I desire?" when there are so many people struggling, when there's so much strife in the world. And really we can focus on that, or we can focus on getting to a place where we have the capacity to actually pursue our passions and do something about all the bad sh*t we see in the world! Otherwise we're stuck in learned helplessness, and we aren't of use to anyone
I need to reprogram my mind. I’m am beyond negative and my worst enemy. I’m tired of always putting myself down and doubting myself. I don’t want to feel this way anymore. Idk how to even start sometimes. 😔 thank you for your vid
Basically Max out on everything you can control
And be at piece with yourself on anything you can’t control
My anxiety and negative mindset holds me back from so much..
THIS! I have been in a weird state of being really emotionally invested in my job and letting things get to me, but also not caring about that job, for so long! Your words have resonated so deeply with me, thank you 💓
This is literally my mindset.I always think 'ye ok,easy for you to say'.I always feel like I have gotten the short end of the stick and everything is harder for me than others.
I went to school to be a medical assistant and im currently in debt from school but I finally quit my job as a MA 6 months ago and I felt stuck for a long time cuz of all the work I put in . My whole life I've always been told that school is everything so that's what I ended up doing and once I graduated and went through a couple jobs , I realized I wasn't happy and I finally decided to let myself be truly happy and it was the best descion I ever made🥰 now im in the entrepreneur mindset 💜
Unlearn everything :
Start questioning and observing everything in life and see what fullfils you and what doesn't.
Question each and everything thing; friends, family, relationships etc.
It will take time...
Something we can't change:
For ex, you can't drop out, so that's like an essential.
What are the essentials and non-essentials in your life ?
What you can control: going to gym, how you treat yourself after gym, how you spend your time. Spending less time on social media can help you focus /find your passion.
Don't forget that you're a playing a game:
Don't emotionally invest yourself in the non-essentials , put in the amount of effort that is just needed. Not more.
Play the game, constantly recognize that you're playing a game.
You can go and put time in what you actually want to do.
Take control:
Once everything is sorted , take control om things you have to do to build your dream life.
Look at your limiting beliefs .
Manifestation, scripting, shadow work.
Lay out step by step things and overcome the limiting beliefs.
Make a list of things you need to do to start XYZ. Start with creating a website. Squarespace is a good site.
I'm 24 and I can 100% relate to your story. Thank you for posting this because it makes me realize that what I am going through is normal and I'm not the only one.
A few months ago I started telling myself to stop overexerting myself at work to the point where I was too drained to work on my channel and business ideas. I really enjoyed hearing some of the things you mentioned in this video!
That is an awesome realization! Congratulations sistah and good luck with your channel and business ideas✨ Years down the road you’ll be so happy you did what you doing now!
@@intentionalliving7326 thank you ☺️
A few months ago, I also came to this realization and quit my 9-5 abruptly. I knew there was a better way of life for me. It definitely wasn’t easy to reprogram my mind, but it was worth it!!! Thank you for sharing your story! Making affirmations, meditations and visualization a daily habit changed my life. For anyone going through that journey sending you lots of positive energy and remember you are capable of anything you put your mind to ✨
I’ve been holding myself back for a long time... wasting time with the wrong people lbs but since watching you I’m focusing on being the main character again! Thanks for your videos ❤️
It is important to be competent and successful while working, studying or pursuing your dreams. I've learned alot through helping others and those skills I easily apply to my various endeavours. I have learned to be resilient, thorough, communicate effectively and to elevate my mindset. You realize quite early that some work environments or courses of study are just not fulfilling you as a person. Ironically those same experiences steer towards what you really want. I'd say to anyone reading this to take action on their dreams today even if you start small. Slow progress is still progress!
This is so true, especially right now at my job we are so short staffed but I will not pick up or stress out over finding coverage or working way more!! I would rather spend more time to work on my channel. Thanks for this video!
I felt exactly the same as you did when I hear people talk about following your dreams. Not sure if I was just pessimistic or being realistic, but following one's dreams seem easier said than done. I've always thought one has to be lucky/fortunate enough, disciplined enough, rich enough, resourceful, or sociable enough to make it happen. But now when I see people living their dreams, I admire them because I know they must've worked hard and sacrificed a lot to get there. I still get upset at myself though when I realize that my dream is far out of reach and that my current reality doesn't align with my dream. I can make plans, but taking action into it is the hardest part for me.
omg i 100% felt the “your playing a game”! i work in nightlife & it’s so mentally and physically exhausting. but i also do the most at my jobs and take them so seriously. but for what? 😒
I really found it inspiring and insightful that you adressed this in such a realistic way, saying things you can change right now and things you can't - but can work on changing in the future. There's too much advice which is like "quit everything! do what you love, don't waste a second on anything that doesn't fulfill you 100%!" and it always makes me feel so incapable, inferior and lacking in courage.
Thank you soul much for your videos! I'd say what was holding me back the most was the thought that I would be upsetting/disappointing the people who supported me during the journey I was on before I started my spiritual awakening. Letting go of the mindset that my decisions can not be made without someone (i.e. parent, mentor, teacher etc.) giving their advice or input has propelled me into my dream life. For anyone reading this, your life is yours to live and you aren't hurting anyone by doing what makes you happy. Go be great!
Omg same
With me it's a simple thing as changing my hair. I know that I'm not happy with my current hairstyle (dreadlocks) ,but I'm forcing myself to go to the salon and put on the same hairstyle becoz my mom has always been the one who pays for my hair. And I feel like I am disappointing her if I say I want to cut my hair and start afresh. But I know that this hair is making me feel miserable, and it hasn't been growing for a while now
tu video es una señal para mi, por que hace 1 año medio me mudé unos 800 km, y ayer decia estoy donde no quiero, haciendo lo que no quiero, y si todo es resultado de mi pensamiento, tengo que cambiar lo que pienso, gracias!!!
I really like that you mentioned making these changes in your life when you ARE NOT coming from a place of wealth and comfort. I think it’s really a huge skill and balancing act to try and still work your 9-5 and do shift into a more growth mindset. Your videos have helped me feel like I’m not alone in trying to get the most out of my life :)
Watching this in 2024 and I couldn’t agree more. Love love love your videos! I’m from South Africa and it feels so comforting to know that there are people on this journey of self all over the world to connect with and learn from ♥️
Lynette you don’t understand how every single thing your said in this video I needed to hear, every word touched my soul, thank you so much for this reminder, it is so motivating ! I’m going to watch it so many times ❤️
You are wonderful you’re going to become so popular believe me
this is why I love your channel so much. you are real and honest and you are showing us step by step everything that has occurred on your journey and what it's really like.
This reminds me of when I was first starting my business I had to unlearn high school grades. They raised us to think that starting a business was super hard. I never liked college. I only get $500 to go to college and books are $300. I’m glad this video came up🙌🏼 It was refreshing to my mind I know everyone with a 9-5 are miserable. I know myself I do not want to work a miserable job. This really motivated me to work more on my business and my youtube channel Thank you!❤️
thank you so much for your honest share. I also realized that the only thing holding me back was my victimhood consciousness. Once I shifted this, everything changed. Instead of thinking that everything was happening TO me, I starting to look at how everything was happening FOR me. Game-changer.
what's holding me back the most is that I have no idea what my dream life looks like, I just know that my life right now ain't it
I’ve been trying to get my mental health in order. I keep feeling unworthy because im not healed yet but this is a journey and at the end of the day we just have to get started
Everything you are saying here is just so on point. It’s like you are my soul sister in another life. Reprogramming your mind is possible but it takes work.
Like, constant effort work.
As you keep up with the process of the tug and pull of the “gravity” of life … you gain spiritual, mental and physical strength.
Yesss so every single word in this video 😍
I LOVE how blunt and honest you are about all the topics people are scared to talk about. You’re literally a breath of fresh air 💕✨
Our brains are wired for automatic negative thoughts, but we are not stuck with them! By telling our brains the stories it needs to hear, we are able to break out of negative mindsets and change our lives. What you think changes who you are, and what you focus on grows. Thanks so much for sharing your story!
i could tell your mental shift from your past self to your present self was a HUGE LEAP😍 thats inspiring to me 🥰 you motivate me to challenge my negative beliefs and to remember that the universe has my back as long as I allow it to ✨🧘♀️
When You Change How You look at Things, Things around You Changes...
This is exactly what I needed to hear! I’ve finally been in the process of applying for my dream jobs and started looking for apartments and it’s a lot that has to be done. But what you were saying in your videos really related with that and just the kind of mindset you have to have seriously. Thanks queen💗
I’ve really been trying to implement the exact points made in the video of just getting by for now until you are able to fully hone in on your side hustle. I really want to live a more fulfilling life and not just wake up everyday and commit to something that I’m not fully passionate about. And honestly just starting and not stopping is the only thing keeping me going in posting on my TH-cam channel. Quitting is the only way you fail. This video was so helpful !
So true!! It's a journey but so worth it to go after what you're passionate about. Rooting for you!!
Relationships as well. Putting in so much energy just to be kicked in my face. I put myself in such a difficult situation and ended up paying a sad price . Dealing with verbal abuse and financial abuse. I had to learn how to live at peace with myself and overcome my fears
Currently in the unlearning and reprogramming phase and it is difficult but SO WORTH IT! Thank you for the reminder girl! Congrats on all of your success so far too! 😍🙌🏻
Currently in a very low place and this video felt like a big hug, thank you❤️
clicked on this on accident, but everything happens for a reason so I watched it. this spoke to me, everything I am going through and learning at the moment aligns with what you said. thank you ❤
4:00
You remind me so much of myself in my late teens and early twenties. I had to let go of many toxic relationships. The party lifestyle just stopped being fun after a while. I wanted to focus on goals and I always tried to, but it was difficult because I felt like I needed to party to fit in.
One of the things I learned recently while studying sociology is that we have societal pressure. There are things we do, that we don't really want to do; but we do them to fit in. In my early twenties, I started to dislike Christmas because I didn't like the idea of receiving many presents. I had started practicing a mild form of minimalism and realized that my life was good because I was a white man who lived in America. I had all the privileges, I had all of the advantages and no amount of marketing could convince me that I needed that next thing or should feel incomplete. It was that realization that led me away from obsessing about having a music career that was once a hobby.
I had goals that I planned to hit at 18, 21, and 25 that devastated me when I didn't accomplish them. I look back now and laugh a bit because my life is so different. I have a wife and son which I never wanted because I thought of them as obstacles to achieving my dreams. I grew up believing that because I came from a broken family but now as a mature man, I have so much appreciation for building a loving family. I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world.
Capitalism will try to convince you that you need that car, the big promotion, the mansion, and money but what we really need is people, love, and community.
It's been 3 days watching your content I'm growing and getting better at my emotional life❤❤
I'm exactly where u r talking about right now in my life..I'm sooo unhappy that my health is failing...I need to make a change now!
loved this! totally relate to having that feeling of cynicism a couple years ago. Having to breakdown all of those beliefs and emotions is difficult but it is so so worth it :) It's so much easier to go by default and do and think what we are 'expected' to. Obsessed with your content girl, can't wait to see what you do next
Yes yes yes. Thank you!
Can I just say I’m so grateful for your channel and the community that you are creating with it. Not only are your videos SUPER helpful, encouraging, and relatable, but the comments as well! It’s like you’re creating a TH-cam support group where we can help each other! Much love from jersey ❤️
one of the profound insight ive gained from my own journey is that love comes in various forms. it shouldnt be just romance, it can be from nature, animals, strangers, and to depend your happiness on someone else is just the doom of you.
Everything thing you say really resonates with my life. I'm very grateful for you.
I am grateful I stumbled upon your video. I’m a soloprenuer and constantly have to keep unlearning things that no longer serve me. This video has amazing and useful advice. You are very intelligent.
You're like the big sister I've always wanted/need! Thank you for being you! :)
Anyhow this is what you wanted for a big sister you need therapy 😂😂
Knowing what you want is so important in all aspects 💕✨

I would listen to you speak about spirituality for ever 🤯
Girl I needed this. Fuck that job why am I putting in more hours/effort/mental energy than I need to for a job that gives me back the minimum. From now on, minimal effort will be given so I can focus on my passions and dreams. Thank you, this video was truly wonderful
So realistic yet helpful
Your channel has been really helping figure out life what holding me back other peoples perspective not believing I can successful in that field
Loved this video!! I am so guilty of getting caught up in my limiting beliefs that it keeps me from my dream life coming to a reality! Thank youuuu for this video. It was the boost I needed
This is where I am in life right now... It's really hard but I hope I can get through it. I have a simple mindset on what I want for my future life but I been programmed or conditioned to believe in things that aren't necessary or functional to get there. It's a challenging process, but I believe in myself.
We got this! It’s definitely not easy some days but we keep at it!! ☀️✨
I went through the same thing as a Sociology major. It was overwhelming.
Opening your eyes. Everyone is blind
This is the video I was looking for 🥺❤ thank youuu so much & love you 💫❤
Going into the 5 1/2 year mark as a teacher and I realize I'm miserable but more so because of the worry and pressure I've put on myself. I can't leave right now, but I have a plan. Like you said in the video, Lynette, do as much as you need to keep the job, then peace out! Lol I've turned my work email notifications to "DND" starting at 5pm until the next morning. I'm setting goals to leave every day at 4:30 so I can fulfill my goals and dreams. Teaching is just a part of my life for now but I am determined to keep it from being my entire life. As always, LOVE YOUR CONTENT.
What’s been holding me back is me wanting to be in a social class, like rich ppl, middle class, poor. I’ve felt that If i belonged to any I’d be able to to build cause I’d have ground to stand on. Right now at home we can’t say we rich but we can’t say we poor cause many companies owe us millions then again we can’t say we middle class I guess it’s the impact of society on me, cause of this need of belonging I’ felt I needed, this video has helped me realise that and what I can do to move forward and closer to my dream life
A minute in and already feel like you can read my mind 😭 subscribed!
