    I’m happily the boring friend, when it benefits my mental health. Also, let’s please rephrase: you become the friend with personal boundaries. Happy international women’s day!

    Over the past couple years I’ve also become the ‘boring friend’. But honestly, I’m redefining what friendships mean to me and I’ve been loving how my life is not determined by constant chaos 😅😅

    I'm glad you talked about the importance of weight training for women! More women need to realize how beneficial and important it is. Love seeing you in your fit girl/disciplined era Alia 💪 I'm definitely the "boring friend" too and that's totally OK ❤

      I LOVE weight training! I’ve been doing that for years but now Alia got me into running! Week two for me with a 3 day split😅

    It’s something about being in the gym lifting heavy, like 70 lbs farmers carry, 90 lbs plus deadlifts, and flipping those large tires! So empowering and it personally builds my mental confidence

    i love the topic " POV: you became the "boring" friend and the your relationship to exercise. Made me realize that I am the boring friend, which is perfectly fine for me.

    Indeed health is wealth!!! I am a big proponent of that especially after seeing my mom struggling in her later years in life.

    I feel this so much. Sometimes I feel like I’m growing out of my friendships I made when I was in college because they still want to party every weekend and I’m the stick in the mud when I don’t

    so so so happy for you. also trying to find inner peace like this as a fellow creator - i've realized i've become the boring friend because i'm hustling trying to make this page (my dream) come true - and seeing you be able to live as freely like this is inspiring.

    How great your life is!! Doing what you want and just all of them. Even if the weather is not great today, tomorrow will be a better day. I become a person who like to stay alone more than before. To be honest, I couldn’t imagine this kind of feeling in the past, but I really find how relax it is. Wish all people can live in their lovely life

    At the beginning of the year I was training for a 21km Marathon and I was super excited about it, had to pull out because I am recovering my knee (this was caused by the pain I had ignored for almost two years) watching your vlogs makes me excited to start running again and gives me the motivation that soon I'll is back on the starting line training for a 21k for 2025! 🥹

    I’m trans and sometimes I forget that female bodies strugggle to gain muscle and have to like stop and take a step back and remeber my body cannot look like those cis men I look up to. Thank you for this reminder to focus on performance and less on aesthetics! It’s like I KNOW this but also sometimes we slip back into it without realizing 🥵

    I came across your content since I was moving to Seattle from New York City, and now I watch your content from Seattle and I'm able to see New York City stay the same and change too (there's so many different coffee shops, ha.). Well, I lived in your NYC area for a decade (graduate school and work) - I'm familiar with the restaurants, grocery stores, parks (Elizabeth garden was my go to for Friday evening book reading), waterfronts, and even the Blink gym in your video. Ha. Best with your marathon, and enjoy NYC.

    I use the spirilina powder in smoothies! Works perfect. I normally do the combo blueberries, banana, strawberries, 1/2 orange , spinach. It normally gets grey and looks like concrete. But I think it's tasty. I also have som fiber in it like flaxseeds. (But just have like maximum 2 small teaspoons) 😊😊

    I've slowly started becoming the 'boring' friend, and there's not much going on in my life - at first, that kind of hurt because it felt like i was missing out but i think i've come to terms with it and look at it in a positive life, there's not much chaos or drama and i have a lot of time that i put into my hobbies and mental health instead :)
