I’m 69 but I still remember how heart wrenching it was when my children each moved out. We work towards that independence for our children from birth but gosh it’s hard when it happens.
I had pre-empty nest syndrome my son’s whole senior year. I knew in advance how very much I was going to miss having him at home but like you I was so excited for him to start his own life. Now he has two sweet little girls that I get to see along with him and his lovely wife so all the pain is worth it!
I raised four kids and bawled my eyes out each time one moved out. I am an empty nester and struggling to find myself again. They occupied my every thought and action and now that is gone. It’s not easy, but they are happy and well adjusted and that is all a parent could ask for. Now is my time to do my own thing, I just need to find out what that thing is. Great video, Lisa
I joined my neighborhood faith group when my kids moved out. They always come back but my faith group helped my mourning period. The kids come back all the time and are only two hours away. It’s not the same of course but they are doing great and always happy to come back home. I also volunteer and making plans for the future to live near a beach. We have to continue to remain optimistic and enjoy life.
When you answered the question about do you have any girlfriends and what do you do, etc., I could TOTALLY relate! I've had many acquaintances, but not a "best friend" girlfriend or anything like that. Throughout my teen years and early adulthood, I tried to make friends, but no one seemed to want to stick around. Thank you SO much for answering that question honestly. It made me realize I'm not alone. My family is everything and that is all that matters! Love you and your videos! Joanne
Same my best friends are my sisters and I do have close friends but unfortunately they’ve moved, we see each other once a year and remain in touch. My other “friends” are neighbors but they are not best friends.
Thank you Lisa for not being afraid to discuss traditional, Christian values and morals! I was raised in Tennessee and our families sound almost identical! This is one of the main reasons I continue to watch you- please continue to talk about your childhood and family along with all the girlie stuff! ❤️
I just binge watched so many of your videos after wanting to know about the Lion Diet. I'm trying to lose weight as a nurse working graveyard and its so hard. You are so adorable, I love your videos, very inspiring. Thank you I will continue to watch now that I have found you.
Lisa, your videos are NOT too long...I hope you know what a unique TH-camr you are...Your style is so conversational, unscripted...like sitting across from you and having a conversation. Hope you continue to soar!!
I totally get how you feel, my oldest is a junior in college and my “baby” is about to be a freshman in high school. I too miss my kids being little. The thought of my kids hugging me around my legs or raising their arms for me to pick them up will instantly bring tears to my eyes. While I thoroughly enjoy the friendship I’ve developed with my children as they’ve matured, it was the time of my life when they were little. I feel like I kind of have to fight a feeling of mourning that time of my life being over. Motherhood is a love like no other. ❤️❤️❤️
I feel the same way! I get so emotional thinking of them little and running to kiss and hug me. You do have to mourn over that time, it was a lovely season of life. I find this time harder to navigate especially going through the pandemic.
My grandma used to tell me this... she didn't know love until she met her husband, but then she had kids. She didn't know love until she had her kids... but then she had grand kids ♡♡♡
Omg I just cried along with you! My son is 2.5 and my daughter is 3 months and it is SO true that the days are long and the years are short. I’m on my last week of maternity leave and will be working from home while taking care of them at the same time and I know it’s going to be hard but I don’t want to miss a single minute with them being little. Your words about being the four of you in the car driving really hit home for me. As hard as it is getting diapers changed, shoes on, jackets on, in car seats, etc., I know I’ll miss it when it’s over!
I’ve been married 17 years and I totally agree with staying out of the resentment zone. Everybody gets there especially when the kids are little and take so much work, but you really have to find a way to stay on the same team.
I love how much you love your womanhood and femininity! I feel the same way, and it’s why I love your channel so much. I love being a woman, I’m naturally very feminine and I love everything about it. And it’s been *MY* experience that I’ve been celebrated for being a feminine woman. I know that isn’t everyone’s experience, I’m not saying anything about that. I’m just saying I love it and I enjoy being a feminine woman and it’s served me well in my own life.
Aww Lisa! I love your honesty and transparency. My 22 year old daughter recently moved out and I know EXACTLY how you feel. Those days are gone but a new era awaits and those cherished memories will last forever. Thank you for this video. It’s one of your best. 💗
Omg, Lisa I feel your pain! My oldest son left for boot camp yesterday and I haven’t been able to stop crying. I didn’t sleep at all last night. The fact that our house feels so empty without him, his room is empty, the fact that he didn’t have dinner with us last night, and I can’t even contact him for at least the next 9 weeks I have to just have my phone next to me at all times hoping for that one minute phone call he’ll get, because I never know when it’s going to come I’m such a wreck already hoping I don’t miss it somehow. I am a crying mess and my heart just hurts. And you are so right, it’s like we are almost grieving that period of our lives when we had our children all at home with us. I put so much of my life into being a mother, it just feels like a part of me is missing now and it hurts. I didn’t know it was going to be THIS hard on me.😔 Big hugs.💓
And you know, one more thing I just want to get off my chest somehow. It upsets me that my friends and family are all asking me how I’m doing and I tell them I’m struggling, they are telling me “you knew this was coming. It’s part of life, you have to let them go, blah blah blah” It feels very minimizing to the emotional pain I’m going through right now and I know some of them mean well but it’s just honestly adding insult to injury and I’ve kind of stopped answering some of my texts because I just drew a boundary. But to hear you talk about Brooke leaving I just felt your pain and it just felt validating to me as a mother. Thank you.❤️
I agree wholeheartedly with EVERY word you said about why you LOVE being a woman! I feel exactly the same way. Your emotions always get my emotions going, Lisa. 🖤 My Mother and I were SO CLOSE. I moved back home to take care of her after she got sick. I'm still a young woman and I didn't give a second thought to putting my life on hold for her for years before she died and went to join my Father in heaven. She had always said, one of the hardest times in her life was when I had moved out at 18. I wish strength upon your spirit as you acclimate to this new change without your dear Brooke at home. 🥀
Your love of womanhood is what makes you so endearing. I love that you inspire young women. They appreciate and need you! All the things... dressing up, perfume, nurturing, building up young women. You are a special gift.❤️
Hi Lisa ☺️ I shared your tears when you spoke of your daughter moving out. Wow.. it’s tough. Our daughter just left to move in with her boyfriend, she’s 24. I cried an ocean. And not because we aren’t happy for her. We are so happy and so proud. We raised a good girl and she is finding her own path now. All their lives ( I have a boy too 21) I have dreaded the moment! Undoubtedly the happiest days of my life was when they were small. But, there are many, many, many happy times to come. Being a grandma is super special ❤️ weddings etc. And I cannot wait! 🥳 you are an inspiration to lots of us women, so thank you for that. In October 2020 I was lying in bed watching Netflix with my daughter, and just like that… my heart stopped. Luckily I live close to a hospital. But it took 10 minutes to revive me which left me severely sight impaired and a brain injury which has affected every aspect of my life. My husband has had to give up work to care for me. Which he is fantastic at. And while I’m incredibly grateful to be here, life is sooooo different now. Anyway, my point being.. nine of us know what is around the corner. So please live every day like it’s your last. Don’t sweat the small stuff. Enjoy the little things. Smell the roses. Keep up the good work Lisa. You really are inspirational and helping women is your calling for sure. Take care, much love from the UK xxxxx
I love your videos , Lisa ! They are never too long. I take your makeup tips and fashion style. My favorite part is watching your videos before going to sleep. You relax me and it's like having a friend tucking you in and leave you with positive vibes 🌞. Thank you ❤️.
Love your videos Lisa! I cried with you when you talked about Brooke moving out. I'm a stay at home mom to two littles and my oldest starts Kindergarten this year (super emotional about it). Some days are tough, but then I remember the phrase, "The days are long, but the years are short." It always makes me appreciate every good and bad day with my babies, they're mine and my husbands whole world. I adore anytime you speak on being a mom and love when you give advice about it! Because of you I have my mom uniform ready for those school pick-up lines just so I feel somewhat put together! Lots of love to you Lisa! 💖💖
Lisa, there's so much wisdom in what you're saying I can't stop watching your vlogs. I am a 46 year old woman coming from a very dysfunctional family background and lots of trauma experienced both in and out of my family home. I've been trying to surround myself with positive and emotionally healthy people and the past few years has been a "cleansing" process of getting rid of most of the toxic people I surrounded myself with for decades. Having been brought up by parents who convinced me I was worthless I didn't think I deserved better. I've been on the path of healing and learning self worth for a few years now and I continue to heal. Thank you for being so honest and open, you are a true gem and I'm glad I came across your YT channel. Sending lots of love from Poland xxx
Loved this Q&A Lisa!! I teared up when you were talking about Brooke and your family. You are such an inspiration. I really appreciate hearing "delight in womanhood" and how wonderful it is to be a woman. We are magical! XO
I know exactly what you mean and how you feel with Brooke moving out. I cried and cried when my oldest first moved out, was a little easier with my second. Fast forward 7-8 yrs, and I now I have grandbabies who visit which is wonderful. As for the video times, I LOVE the longer videos. It's coffee time!
Hugs to you Lisa, it’s normal to feel sadness or happiness in life’s milestones. Been watching you a long time, still enjoy watching you. I love long videos. 😍
I have been watching you since the beginning and been a blessing to watch your children grow up and being a part of your life over the years. Thank you!
your videos are NOT too long! I love that you dont just rush through things like so many others do. I love your videos. Love your vibe, your energy of love and kindness. It all comes through in every video you post. So happy I found your channel. Lots of love from Lene (watching you from Norway )
I just adore you so much!!! I found you YEARSSS ago in my mid twenties and going through a divorce. I’ve loved you ever since and adore your videos. You’ve made a big impact on me. I’m in my 30s now and relate to you a lot and finding my forever love after going through a hard one. I love being a woman, I love being home and with family more than traveling anywhere. I just feel you!!! Thanks for always being you Lisa!
I just discovered your channel and I love it already! You have a sweet nurturing voi e and I cant just get enough of listening to you, so no your videos are not too long, they are the perfect length. I would love to join your subscription, sounds like we'll have alot of fun and heart to heart conversations.
Hi Lisa, I enjoyed this video very much and always enjoy your advice videos. I am a woman in her 30s and your appreciation of life, marriage and femininity has really been an eye-opener & blessing to me. The way you speak so kindly as well as taking care of yourself and your family is something I wish to imitate in my own life. Thank You :)
Thank you Lisa for this video, no, they are not too long !! I have always been "different" and thought I was the only one who felt the way I did untill we have these chats, and I realise how much we have in common and it makes me happy to be in such good company !! Love this style video and all your others as well ! I'm here and have been here for the long haul , truly your friend, Sara xo
I am crying so hard because I have been the opposite of what you describe as being woman. I have never delighted in being a female. I’m so thankful that I have found your channel. My heart desires to change and to be happy.
I've never commented before but have been watching you for over a decade (22 to soon to be 33!) Your videos are never too long and you have helped me more than I could ever put into words on my journey as a young woman. Your advice and transparency of lessons learnt along the way, have helped me find my true happiness with a loving husband and two beautiful babies. Thank you for being you and for sharing yourself with us! Xo
I love these videos. I could listen to you for hours. I'm a single mom and my son is 19. He still lives with me and I am so enjoying every day with him. We have the best conversations. It's a joy to listen to him and to watch him grow. I know these times are fleeting so I'm trying to soak it all in. And that color is so lovely on you.
Lisa I cried with you today. My Ellie is only 5 years old! I do realize how quickly she is growing I can’t imagine the day she leaves my side. You are so inspiring Lisa, is been so many years since I decided to have you as my friend haha and never missed a Friday video from you, Thank you for you transparency and honesty. Love you my sweet Lisa ! -Helin
You’re so wise, Lisa. I also like how you meld so wonderfully with your audience. I always know when you have your talks that there will be one or more nuggets of wisdom. Thank you so. I have.
i have been following you for YEARS! and always enjoy your videos. your voice is so calming and soothing when the world goes a mile a minute. i love your long videos! love your advice and all of your wise words!
I think you should write a book for young Mothers, because they need advise on so much! Esp since your so understanding! Also a book for Newly Weds and respect for spouse!
Hi Lisa! One of the biggest reasons I started watching your videos is because I resonated with your family values and the close bond you have with your husband and children. When my youngest turned 10, I started to dread them growing up and moving out. I could never understand why one of my friends couldn't wait until her kids moved out. It was so odd to me that she felt that way! Anyway, I teared up watching you talk about that chapter of your life ending because I could relate completely. I cried for 2 days when my daughter went away to college. I had to close her bedroom door because every time I walked past it made me sad even though I knew it was normal for her to go! Thank you for sharing with all of us! Love to you, my friend!! xoxo
I also cried and couldn’t really eat two days when my oldest left. They come back especially when you have been close. Blessings to all going through this.
Everyone remember it can always be worse…my only child died at 21..be thankful u still have them…I don’t say this to have u feel sorry for me..this year has just been especially hard..my mom who was always my rock is in hospice..just a lonely place..but us women r strong God does not give us more than we can handle
Thank you for being a bright light for the world! You're an encourager! You bring Joy to others! I grew up with very similar family values and wish they were more present in society today! Thanks so much for your channel and what I continue to learn from you!!❤️
We love you too Lisa, it's wonderful to listen to you and you made me cry so much, I totally relate and understand .... Sending you much love, whatever you decide to do next to keep us all together, I will be there to support you and I'll enjoy each moment, thank you!
You are such a precious person. I just recently found you and what a sweet surprise it has been!!! I just turned 50 and have struggled to find someone on TH-cam in the same phase of life I am in… and there you were! Thank you for all your updates and shares!!
Lisa I cried along with you my heart felt yours. All my children are on there own and miss every part of them growing up. I wish that they were still little. But what brings joy to my heart is when your child says to you “mom we had the best memories growing up” I treasure that ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Lisa you will too😘
I love the comment when u said “I had been treated more unfairly by other women.” That is the most true statement. It’s sad how other women judge, put down, and hurt each other. I am all about supporting and uplifting. ❤️
Love your comfort in your own skin and confidence in just being yourself. You have a lot of common sense. Keep on with the videos. You seem like a real sweet person with the right values...nice to hear about your family.
RIGHT THERE with you on your children. I would give anything to go back. To have them little again. The days are long, but those years, they are so short. It's bittersweet...you want those children back but watching them make their way and seeing where they go is wonderful too.
Lisa, thank you for your honesty! When you said that you've been hurt by "friends in my life," I can definitely relate. Yes, family is everything...but, I've lost most of mine, too soon. Keep it real. xxoo
Lisa, You are special. I can feel you honesty. You are a beautiful person. Who would not like you. You are a beautiful soul inside out. Thank you for being a good friend. ❤️❤️
Lisa, we are kindred spirits. I turned 57 yesterday and I still get emotional when I talk about my daughters moving out. I was a stay at home mom and treasured every moment. I would give anything to have those days back. My husband is 12 years older than me and he is my best friend. I am extremely close with my parents who live 3 minutes from me. I adore being a woman and all that it entails. My husband can’t bring himself to get another dog …I could give more examples. Oh and NO your videos are not too long! 🥰
Great video!! You were the very first person I subscribed to, probably about 11-12 years ago when I first discovered beauty videos on TH-cam. Since then I subscribed and unsubscribed to many different people but I’m still here with you! I love how kind you are and how you want the best for other women. ♥️
You are not just beautiful but a truly genuine person. I love your style and your advice and esp your talks on aging and acceptance! You have also been so influential in me going carnivore bc of my IBS. Thank you for all you do!! ❤️
I discovered you today when searching for carnivore videos, and you’ve already made a big impact on me. I love all your videos I’ve watched so far, can’t wait to watch the others. Also, thank you for taking the time to list your favorite products and links to them!
yes yes yes! on our children moving out. I think about it now and I cry. I miss my 23 and 22 year old so very much. I loved being their mom and they are to this day my favorite people on this planet. I really enjoy your videos!
Lisa, My son is 23 and at University 5 hours away. He comes and visits and everytime he leaves, I cry like a baby. He brings so much life to the house and I would do anything for him. But it is difficult to let go of that part of yuor life. I was a stay at home Mom too and one can feel a little lost when the kids are gone. My daughter is still at home, going to university here. And I love it !!
I actually love your videos longer the better. To me it’s like chatting with a friend so it just feels natural and appreciate the time you are willing to share. When my daughter moved out I 100% felt the same way and she was moving close. However what I learned was, yes our old routine was gone, but a new one quickly formed. It’s different but just as special. Their was a time when my husband and I thought only our kids were not getting older.
I love your videos so the longer the better! It was touching that you consider your viewers as friends. I've watched you for many years and consider you a friend as well.
I've been watching you for so long Lisa. While I may not always think we'd agree on everything, you're always a breath of fresh air and I think of your advice as the big sister I never had. Love you.
Oh Lisa!!! I cried! I have three kids, two are in their 20’s and I can’t imagine them leaving, but I know one day they will start their own lives. I feel so similar to you as I was a stay at home mom the entire time, my hubby too worked from home and we never left our kids to travel. They came with us! Lol … my kids and my family are everything too! Thank you for this and you are such a wonderful, sincere , kind woman!! You are rare my dear! 🙌🏻💛 God bless you and your family
Loved this video! I'm 63, but can relate so much to the things you talked about. I absolutely love the longer videos because it feels like a visit with a girlfriend. Even when I don't have time to watch any others, I never miss yours (and MsGoldGirl). ❤️
I just want to hug you! The best is yet to come; it will be sad when Will moves out but when it’s just you and John it will be newlyweds with benefits-the benefit of a long standing deeper love and the freedom to do whatever you want, whatever that looks like💜
tears as you were talking about Brooke moving out. My daughter, 18.5 is launching off to college 2000 miles away from us. we ended up buying her a nice house and are fully furnishing it. This way we get to come and visit ..its also our vacation getaway home. so a win win for us all . This way she feels the comforts of home , we feel like she is safe and has a good base. i know how hard these feelings are. I started watching you when she was 9 yrs old. SAHM mom too, took our kids eveywhere, blessed life beyond imagine. I too wish I could repeat the last 18 yrs blessings
No, your videos are not too long. In fact, I needed this video today. I work with a wonderful, but sometimes challenging, group of women. Lately the negativity has been running rampant. I needed to be in a place with positivity and femininity and love. Thank you. I forget how much I love your videos when too much time goes by and I don't watch. 💜💜
I started my day this morning listening to you talk about being a mother and Brooke moving out. Then you just shocked me when you mentioned that people hate you. . Lisa, you seem like such a kindhearted good wife, daughter and mother! Please ignore those haters, you are delightful on you tube, I have literally enjoyed viewing you for years!
This video touched my heart. When I think about all the seasons of my life I cry. Change is hard. But there is always something wonderful in the new season. Now I have grandkids! Your videos are never too long! Sometimes I don’t want them to end! I look forward to every single one! I hope you know you are our friend too!!!🥰💕
I loved this video! I too am/was a stay at home mom. My daughter is almost 19. My sons are both married at 21 and 24. My husband and I did so much with our kids. Scouts, dance, soccer, water polo, music lessons, show choir, camping, on and on. Those days are done. That chapter is over. The five of us going to the movies and dinner. Dinner each night around our table. The first time my oldest son was not with us on his birthday was so odd for me. I relate so much to your passion for motherhood. Being a mom has been my greatest joy. I am now a grandma and that is so special. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your heart with us! I’m right there with you!❤️ I look forward to us growing old together through TH-cam😉 You are such a bright spot in my week! My husband always asks when I’m watching a video if I’m watching Lisa! He knows how much I love you. We just celebrated 28 years and he is definitely my best friend! Love you Lisa!!
My youngest just graduated high school last night. I am feeling exactly the same way about him moving out. Exactly. Thank you for validating my feelings. Truly.
No your videos are not to long. I'm 64, & I think you are wise to broaden your topics for women. You have lived a full life & have shared experiences that can truly help the younger women of today. God Bless. Love from California
Definitely not long enough. I love your videos and the longer the better. I really hope you will do another TH-cam channel about gardening, cooking because i heard TH-cam has gotten strict with what you can upload on videos. We all love watching you and wish you could do a video everyday!! You inspire us all in every aspect of life not just beauty. You are truly a beautiful woman inside and out!!
We love our children that’s for sure. It’s okay to be excited and sad at the same time. Brook is your daughter and she will always be, all of her life. 💕
Nooooo never to long, particularly love your chatty ones. I love that you can appreciate higher end items and appreciate lower end items. You are a very well rounded person that seems to get better all the time!
Lisa,what an amazing video!!!! I cried with you...kids grow up so fast. I am so not ready for that...love your advices on everything. Looking forward to more videos like this,it helps so much in manu different aspects. Thank you!
Hi Lisa! I am an OG LisaLisaD1 subscriber haha. I love you then and now, I always will! If I were to run into you one day (unlikely bc I live in the mountains, haha!), I would give you a huge hug. You have been a source of inspiration and warmth and comfort for me for sooo long. I felt compelled to comment bc you mentioned "hate watchers" and I wanted to raise my hand and let you know, here's a love watcher that's been here since the start! Hey! So glad you're here! Thank you for sharing your life with us! I was looking at my little 4 year old boy while watching this video and started tearing up when you were talking about Brooke.Time is just crazy--I don't understand it and never will--all I can do is do my best to be present while I can :) much love!! xoxox ~Holly
Hi Lisa , I feel the same don’t like the cold n climbing mountains. I Love tropical 🏝 places, beaches , boat , sun ☀️ 💃💃💃💃💃🙌 You look amazing 🤩 the tan u have is it fake lotion tan ?
Your videos are Not Too Long! I would definitely be a member in whatever I need to subscribe to for more content! This was a fun video to watch. Hated to see it end. May your days be as beautiful as your heart Lisa❤️
Oh Lisa! I am crying along with you!!! I have followed you since the beginning and you are my favorite friend here on TH-cam. I have little kids right now, but you have no idea how much I cry or get sad thinking about them getting older. I know that it goes by so fast and their time as little kids is just so magical and special. I try to soak in all of the moments with them. You are such a wonderful mom and your kids are so lucky! Thank you for this video. These chit chat type of videos are my favorite from you. You give the BEST advice and I just really love your views on things. You have a great way of putting things into words. Your videos are never too long! Sending big hugs to you!
Absolutely love this ! I don’t have any special vacation or place I’d like to go . I’m just happy being with people I love ! My husband and I are celebrating 29 yrs of marriage this Sunday and he’s truly my best friend. Dealing with my dad having cancer he knows I don’t need a lot of conversation about what’s going on he just puts his arm out hugs me and let’s me cry . He just knows what I need . When my daughter moved out I felt like I was a bad parent that she didn’t want to live with us anymore. Lol ! I helped her carry the last box into the house she would be living in with her roommates and I cried the whole way home . Where did this strong young woman come from ? We did it ! We raised strong young women ! Thank you so much for sharing and it all hits home and brings a smile . Thank you isn’t enough for the joy you bring . Thank you Thank you 🙏
Lisa! I've been a sub forever it feels. I'm in my thirties and ever since I found you I've been looking up to you for fashion and beauty. Not only that but it's very important for us girls to hear from those who've gone before us! Thank you for all your content ❤️
Lisa..I have been watching u ever since u started and i have to say u always been my favourite person on TH-cam..But this video made me realise even more how much I appreciate you as a woman and how much positive vibe u reflect on all of us..U have my ultimate respect and my utmost love..Love u Lisa ❤️
no, not too long! I love hearing you be honest, and give your opinions- you are the real deal. Love hearing m ore about lifestyle, eating, and life in general.
I really enjoy watching your videos Lisa. They are the perfect length. I’m happy I can across your channel a few years ago. Thank you 😊 for the content.
I have watched you forever 😍… and my seasons of life have been similar… But what I loved about todays video is the fact that you always have owned your love of family and being a woman .. And I love you for that !!! I am the same in values and spirit and I love being a woman who loves her husband and kids and thrives in it !! You are truly beautiful inside and out 😘❤️
haha yesss RIP!!!! I am 38 and enjoy your videos and little life lessons! My 19 yr old daughter is still living at home while in college. I start crying thinking of her moving out. She is my only baby
I really want you to know that you make a difference in many of our lives. I think I have seen every single one of your videos. We are the same on many levels snd I always feel good knowing you are here!
It is so funny because when I see your videos is like you are my friend from highschool, or a sister, it is so easy to be with you here in this space. Keep doing it!! Just do you! We love you.
You look gorgeous Lisa!!! I don’t think your videos are to long, I wish they were longer, but I understand. Also I feel the same way about missing your kids when they were little or younger. It’s hard letting them go. I almost cried with you! Thank you again, for sharing your life with us, we are all going threw something and maybe we all as women can help one another!
"Never be nicer to strangers than you are to your husband." Wooow that is good, Lisa. Even after 13 years of marriage, I need that reminder sometimes.
So true. Worry about your own family!
me too!!!
I’m 69 but I still remember how heart wrenching it was when my children each moved out. We work towards that independence for our children from birth but gosh it’s hard when it happens.
So very true! Very well said. I could feel the emotions when I read your comment.
I had pre-empty nest syndrome my son’s whole senior year. I knew in advance how very much I was going to miss having him at home but like you I was so excited for him to start his own life. Now he has two sweet little girls that I get to see along with him and his lovely wife so all the pain is worth it!
I raised four kids and bawled my eyes out each time one moved out. I am an empty nester and struggling to find myself again. They occupied my every thought and action and now that is gone. It’s not easy, but they are happy and well adjusted and that is all a parent could ask for. Now is my time to do my own thing, I just need to find out what that thing is. Great video, Lisa
Right there with you Mary. It causes me quite a bit of anxiety!
It does take time...it’s a process for sure! Give yourself plenty of time to grieve the old life then get ready for the new!
When you do please share!!!
I joined my neighborhood faith group when my kids moved out. They always come back but my faith group helped my mourning period. The kids come back all the time and are only two hours away. It’s not the same of course but they are doing great and always happy to come back home. I also volunteer and making plans for the future to live near a beach. We have to continue to remain optimistic and enjoy life.
Get some pets now, they are very affectionate fun and Needy, lol.
When you answered the question about do you have any girlfriends and what do you do, etc., I could TOTALLY relate! I've had many acquaintances, but not a "best friend" girlfriend or anything like that. Throughout my teen years and early adulthood, I tried to make friends, but no one seemed to want to stick around. Thank you SO much for answering that question honestly. It made me realize I'm not alone. My family is everything and that is all that matters! Love you and your videos! Joanne
Thank you, Joanne!! 🥰😘
TwigLives Makeup SAME!
Same my best friends are my sisters and I do have close friends but unfortunately they’ve moved, we see each other once a year and remain in touch. My other “friends” are neighbors but they are not best friends.
Thank you Lisa for not being afraid to discuss traditional, Christian values and morals! I was raised in Tennessee and our families sound almost identical! This is one of the main reasons I continue to watch you- please continue to talk about your childhood and family along with all the girlie stuff! ❤️
I just binge watched so many of your videos after wanting to know about the Lion Diet. I'm trying to lose weight as a nurse working graveyard and its so hard. You are so adorable, I love your videos, very inspiring. Thank you I will continue to watch now that I have found you.
Lisa, your videos are NOT too long...I hope you know what a unique TH-camr you are...Your style is so conversational, unscripted...like sitting across from you and having a conversation. Hope you continue to soar!!
I totally get how you feel, my oldest is a junior in college and my “baby” is about to be a freshman in high school. I too miss my kids being little. The thought of my kids hugging me around my legs or raising their arms for me to pick them up will instantly bring tears to my eyes. While I thoroughly enjoy the friendship I’ve developed with my children as they’ve matured, it was the time of my life when they were little. I feel like I kind of have to fight a feeling of mourning that time of my life being over. Motherhood is a love like no other. ❤️❤️❤️
Agree with you 100%
I feel the same way! I get so emotional thinking of them little and running to kiss and hug me. You do have to mourn over that time, it was a lovely season of life. I find this time harder to navigate especially going through the pandemic.
My grandma used to tell me this... she didn't know love until she met her husband, but then she had kids. She didn't know love until she had her kids... but then she had grand kids ♡♡♡
Omg I just cried along with you! My son is 2.5 and my daughter is 3 months and it is SO true that the days are long and the years are short. I’m on my last week of maternity leave and will be working from home while taking care of them at the same time and I know it’s going to be hard but I don’t want to miss a single minute with them being little. Your words about being the four of you in the car driving really hit home for me. As hard as it is getting diapers changed, shoes on, jackets on, in car seats, etc., I know I’ll miss it when it’s over!
Thank you, Erica!! You have many good years and good times ahead, I think you are doing the right thing!! 🥰 Lisa
I’ve been married 17 years and I totally agree with staying out of the resentment zone. Everybody gets there especially when the kids are little and take so much work, but you really have to find a way to stay on the same team.
I love how much you love your womanhood and femininity! I feel the same way, and it’s why I love your channel so much. I love being a woman, I’m naturally very feminine and I love everything about it. And it’s been *MY* experience that I’ve been celebrated for being a feminine woman. I know that isn’t everyone’s experience, I’m not saying anything about that. I’m just saying I love it and I enjoy being a feminine woman and it’s served me well in my own life.
Aww Lisa! I love your honesty and transparency. My 22 year old daughter recently moved out and I know EXACTLY how you feel. Those days are gone but a new era awaits and those cherished memories will last forever. Thank you for this video. It’s one of your best. 💗
Omg, Lisa I feel your pain! My oldest son left for boot camp yesterday and I haven’t been able to stop crying. I didn’t sleep at all last night. The fact that our house feels so empty without him, his room is empty, the fact that he didn’t have dinner with us last night, and I can’t even contact him for at least the next 9 weeks I have to just have my phone next to me at all times hoping for that one minute phone call he’ll get, because I never know when it’s going to come I’m such a wreck already hoping I don’t miss it somehow. I am a crying mess and my heart just hurts. And you are so right, it’s like we are almost grieving that period of our lives when we had our children all at home with us. I put so much of my life into being a mother, it just feels like a part of me is missing now and it hurts. I didn’t know it was going to be THIS hard on me.😔 Big hugs.💓
And you know, one more thing I just want to get off my chest somehow. It upsets me that my friends and family are all asking me how I’m doing and I tell them I’m struggling, they are telling me “you knew this was coming. It’s part of life, you have to let them go, blah blah blah” It feels very minimizing to the emotional pain I’m going through right now and I know some of them mean well but it’s just honestly adding insult to injury and I’ve kind of stopped answering some of my texts because I just drew a boundary. But to hear you talk about Brooke leaving I just felt your pain and it just felt validating to me as a mother. Thank you.❤️
Oh my goodness, sending you a big hug, I know this is going to be tough, but wow, you must be so proud!! ❤️🥰😘
I’m so sorry you’re having such a hard time. Sending you a big hug! Thank you to your son for his service.
@@shannonrodriguez8165 thank you, I will do that.❤️
@@LisaLisaD1 thank you, yes I definitely am.❤️
I agree wholeheartedly with EVERY word you said about why you LOVE being a woman! I feel exactly the same way. Your emotions always get my emotions going, Lisa. 🖤 My Mother and I were SO CLOSE. I moved back home to take care of her after she got sick. I'm still a young woman and I didn't give a second thought to putting my life on hold for her for years before she died and went to join my Father in heaven. She had always said, one of the hardest times in her life was when I had moved out at 18. I wish strength upon your spirit as you acclimate to this new change without your dear Brooke at home. 🥀
Your love of womanhood truly shows. You’re a joy to watch always. You’ve been truly blessed.❤️
Your love of womanhood is what makes you so endearing. I love that you inspire young women. They appreciate and need you! All the things... dressing up, perfume, nurturing, building up young women. You are a special gift.❤️
Thank you so much, Jeanette! 🥰
Lisa, your videos aren't too long. I just love listening to you and your positiveness and makeup and clothes. There is so much more to you!
I’m a young woman and have been watching for for a couple years now. You’ve inspired me in so many ways! Thank you for being you Lisa ❤️
Hi Lisa ☺️ I shared your tears when you spoke of your daughter moving out. Wow.. it’s tough. Our daughter just left to move in with her boyfriend, she’s 24. I cried an ocean. And not because we aren’t happy for her. We are so happy and so proud. We raised a good girl and she is finding her own path now. All their lives ( I have a boy too 21) I have dreaded the moment! Undoubtedly the happiest days of my life was when they were small. But, there are many, many, many happy times to come. Being a grandma is super special ❤️ weddings etc. And I cannot wait! 🥳 you are an inspiration to lots of us women, so thank you for that. In October 2020 I was lying in bed watching Netflix with my daughter, and just like that… my heart stopped. Luckily I live close to a hospital. But it took 10 minutes to revive me which left me severely sight impaired and a brain injury which has affected every aspect of my life. My husband has had to give up work to care for me. Which he is fantastic at. And while I’m incredibly grateful to be here, life is sooooo different now. Anyway, my point being.. nine of us know what is around the corner. So please live every day like it’s your last. Don’t sweat the small stuff. Enjoy the little things. Smell the roses. Keep up the good work Lisa. You really are inspirational and helping women is your calling for sure. Take care, much love from the UK xxxxx
I love your videos , Lisa ! They are never too long. I take your makeup tips and fashion style. My favorite part is watching your videos before going to sleep. You relax me and it's like having a friend tucking you in and leave you with positive vibes 🌞. Thank you ❤️.
Love your videos Lisa! I cried with you when you talked about Brooke moving out. I'm a stay at home mom to two littles and my oldest starts Kindergarten this year (super emotional about it). Some days are tough, but then I remember the phrase, "The days are long, but the years are short." It always makes me appreciate every good and bad day with my babies, they're mine and my husbands whole world. I adore anytime you speak on being a mom and love when you give advice about it! Because of you I have my mom uniform ready for those school pick-up lines just so I feel somewhat put together! Lots of love to you Lisa! 💖💖
Thank you so much, Alexa!! 🥰😘
Lisa, there's so much wisdom in what you're saying I can't stop watching your vlogs. I am a 46 year old woman coming from a very dysfunctional family background and lots of trauma experienced both in and out of my family home. I've been trying to surround myself with positive and emotionally healthy people and the past few years has been a "cleansing" process of getting rid of most of the toxic people I surrounded myself with for decades. Having been brought up by parents who convinced me I was worthless I didn't think I deserved better. I've been on the path of healing and learning self worth for a few years now and I continue to heal. Thank you for being so honest and open, you are a true gem and I'm glad I came across your YT channel. Sending lots of love from Poland xxx
I suggest watching Dr. Ramini here on TH-cam. She is wonderful at articulating the behaviors of abusive people.
Loved this Q&A Lisa!! I teared up when you were talking about Brooke and your family. You are such an inspiration. I really appreciate hearing "delight in womanhood" and how wonderful it is to be a woman. We are magical! XO
I know exactly what you mean and how you feel with Brooke moving out. I cried and cried when my oldest first moved out, was a little easier with my second. Fast forward 7-8 yrs, and I now I have grandbabies who visit which is wonderful.
As for the video times, I LOVE the longer videos. It's coffee time!
Hugs to you Lisa, it’s normal to feel sadness or happiness in life’s milestones. Been watching you a long time, still enjoy watching you. I love long videos. 😍
Thank you!! 😘 Lisa
I have been watching you since the beginning and been a blessing to watch your children grow up and being a part of your life over the years. Thank you!
your videos are NOT too long! I love that you dont just rush through things like so many others do. I love your videos. Love your vibe, your energy of love and kindness. It all comes through in every video you post. So happy I found your channel. Lots of love from Lene (watching you from Norway )
I just adore you so much!!! I found you YEARSSS ago in my mid twenties and going through a divorce. I’ve loved you ever since and adore your videos. You’ve made a big impact on me. I’m in my 30s now and relate to you a lot and finding my forever love after going through a hard one. I love being a woman, I love being home and with family more than traveling anywhere. I just feel you!!! Thanks for always being you Lisa!
I just discovered your channel and I love it already! You have a sweet nurturing voi e and I cant just get enough of listening to you, so no your videos are not too long, they are the perfect length. I would love to join your subscription, sounds like we'll have alot of fun and heart to heart conversations.
Thank you so much, Regina! Glad you're here!! ❤ Lisa
Hi Lisa, I enjoyed this video very much and always enjoy your advice videos. I am a woman in her 30s and your appreciation of life, marriage and femininity has really been an eye-opener & blessing to me. The way you speak so kindly as well as taking care of yourself and your family is something I wish to imitate in my own life. Thank You :)
Thank you Lisa for this video, no, they are not too long !! I have always been "different" and thought I was the only one who felt the way I did untill we have these chats, and I realise how much we have in common and it makes me happy to be in such good company !! Love this style video and all your others as well ! I'm here and have been here for the long haul , truly your friend, Sara xo
I am crying so hard because I have been the opposite of what you describe as being woman. I have never delighted in being a female. I’m so thankful that I have found your channel. My heart desires to change and to be happy.
I've never commented before but have been watching you for over a decade (22 to soon to be 33!) Your videos are never too long and you have helped me more than I could ever put into words on my journey as a young woman. Your advice and transparency of lessons learnt along the way, have helped me find my true happiness with a loving husband and two beautiful babies. Thank you for being you and for sharing yourself with us! Xo
I love these videos. I could listen to you for hours. I'm a single mom and my son is 19. He still lives with me and I am so enjoying every day with him. We have the best conversations. It's a joy to listen to him and to watch him grow. I know these times are fleeting so I'm trying to soak it all in. And that color is so lovely on you.
Lisa I cried with you today. My Ellie is only 5 years old! I do realize how quickly she is growing I can’t imagine the day she leaves my side. You are so inspiring Lisa, is been so many years since I decided to have you as my friend haha and never missed a Friday video from you, Thank you for you transparency and honesty. Love you my sweet Lisa ! -Helin
You’re so wise, Lisa. I also like how you meld so wonderfully with your audience. I always know when you have your talks that there will be one or more nuggets of wisdom. Thank you so. I have.
i have been following you for YEARS! and always enjoy your videos. your voice is so calming and soothing when the world goes a mile a minute. i love your long videos! love your advice and all of your wise words!
Thank you Lisa, you’ve helped me so much
I think you should write a book for young Mothers, because they need advise on so much! Esp since your so understanding! Also a book for Newly Weds and respect for spouse!
Hi Lisa! One of the biggest reasons I started watching your videos is because I resonated with your family values and the close bond you have with your husband and children. When my youngest turned 10, I started to dread them growing up and moving out. I could never understand why one of my friends couldn't wait until her kids moved out. It was so odd to me that she felt that way! Anyway, I teared up watching you talk about that chapter of your life ending because I could relate completely. I cried for 2 days when my daughter went away to college. I had to close her bedroom door because every time I walked past it made me sad even though I knew it was normal for her to go! Thank you for sharing with all of us! Love to you, my friend!! xoxo
I also cried and couldn’t really eat two days when my oldest left. They come back especially when you have been close. Blessings to all going through this.
Everyone remember it can always be worse…my only child died at 21..be thankful u still have them…I don’t say this to have u feel sorry for me..this year has just been especially hard..my mom who was always my rock is in hospice..just a lonely place..but us women r strong God does not give us more than we can handle
Thank you for being a bright light for the world! You're an encourager! You bring Joy to others! I grew up with very similar family values and wish they were more present in society today! Thanks so much for your channel and what I continue to learn from you!!❤️
We love you too Lisa, it's wonderful to listen to you and you made me cry so much, I totally relate and understand .... Sending you much love, whatever you decide to do next to keep us all together, I will be there to support you and I'll enjoy each moment, thank you!
You are such a precious person. I just recently found you and what a sweet surprise it has been!!! I just turned 50 and have struggled to find someone on TH-cam in the same phase of life I am in… and there you were! Thank you for all your updates and shares!!
Your videos are never too long!!! I just appreciate you and your videos so much. Thank you my beautiful friend. ❤️
Lisa I cried along with you my heart felt yours.
All my children are on there own and miss every part of them growing up.
I wish that they were still little.
But what brings joy to my heart is when your child says to you
“mom we had the best memories growing up”
I treasure that ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Lisa you will too😘
I love the comment when u said “I had been treated more unfairly by other women.” That is the most true statement. It’s sad how other women judge, put down, and hurt each other. I am all about supporting and uplifting. ❤️
Love your comfort in your own skin and confidence in just being yourself. You have a lot of common sense. Keep on with the videos. You seem like a real sweet person with the right values...nice to hear about your family.
RIGHT THERE with you on your children. I would give anything to go back. To have them little again. The days are long, but those years, they are so short. It's bittersweet...you want those children back but watching them make their way and seeing where they go is wonderful too.
Lisa, thank you for your honesty! When you said that you've been hurt by "friends in my life," I can definitely relate. Yes, family is everything...but, I've lost most of mine, too soon. Keep it real. xxoo
Lisa, You are special. I can feel you honesty. You are a beautiful person. Who would not like you. You are a beautiful soul inside out. Thank you for being a good friend. ❤️❤️
Lisa, we are kindred spirits. I turned 57 yesterday and I still get emotional when I talk about my daughters moving out. I was a stay at home mom and treasured every moment. I would give anything to have those days back. My husband is 12 years older than me and he is my best friend. I am extremely close with my parents who live 3 minutes from me. I adore being a woman and all that it entails. My husband can’t bring himself to get another dog …I could give more examples. Oh and NO your videos are not too long! 🥰
Great video!! You were the very first person I subscribed to, probably about 11-12 years ago when I first discovered beauty videos on TH-cam. Since then I subscribed and unsubscribed to many different people but I’m still here with you! I love how kind you are and how you want the best for other women. ♥️
You are not just beautiful but a truly genuine person. I love your style and your advice and esp your talks on aging and acceptance! You have also been so influential in me going carnivore bc of my IBS. Thank you for all you do!! ❤️
I love the longer videos. Thank you for being real and sharing your life with us.
I discovered you today when searching for carnivore videos, and you’ve already made a big impact on me. I love all your videos I’ve watched so far, can’t wait to watch the others. Also, thank you for taking the time to list your favorite products and links to them!
Thank you so much, Heather!! I'm happy you're here! 🥰 Lisa
yes yes yes! on our children moving out. I think about it now and I cry. I miss my 23 and 22 year old so very much. I loved being their mom and they are to this day my favorite people on this planet. I really enjoy your videos!
Lisa, My son is 23 and at University 5 hours away. He comes and visits and everytime he leaves, I cry like a baby. He brings so much life to the house and I would do anything for him. But it is difficult to let go of that part of yuor life. I was a stay at home Mom too and one can feel a little lost when the kids are gone. My daughter is still at home, going to university here. And I love it !!
Your videos are the perfect length. I have watched you for many years and enjoy watching x
I actually love your videos longer the better. To me it’s like chatting with a friend so it just feels natural and appreciate the time you are willing to share.
When my daughter moved out I 100% felt the same way and she was moving close. However what I learned was, yes our old routine was gone, but a new one quickly formed. It’s different but just as special. Their was a time when my husband and I thought only our kids were not getting older.
I love your videos so the longer the better! It was touching that you consider your viewers as friends. I've watched you for many years and consider you a friend as well.
Lisa I’m glad you decided to remake some videos. I totally agree, we’re always growing and learning and you might have even better advice than before!
I've been watching you for so long Lisa. While I may not always think we'd agree on everything, you're always a breath of fresh air and I think of your advice as the big sister I never had. Love you.
Oh Lisa!!! I cried! I have three kids, two are in their 20’s and I can’t imagine them leaving, but I know one day they will start their own lives. I feel so similar to you as I was a stay at home mom the entire time, my hubby too worked from home and we never left our kids to travel. They came with us! Lol … my kids and my family are everything too! Thank you for this and you are such a wonderful, sincere , kind woman!! You are rare my dear! 🙌🏻💛 God bless you and your family
I cannot imagine anyone hate watching you. Why waste the time just to be hateful AND you are always kind and real in your videos!
I would love to see updated versions of former videos! Thank you Lisa...you're uplifting and its so appreciated.
Loved this video! I'm 63, but can relate so much to the things you talked about. I absolutely love the longer videos because it feels like a visit with a girlfriend. Even when I don't have time to watch any others, I never miss yours (and MsGoldGirl). ❤️
I just want to hug you! The best is yet to come; it will be sad when Will moves out but when it’s just you and John it will be newlyweds with benefits-the benefit of a long standing deeper love and the freedom to do whatever you want, whatever that looks like💜
tears as you were talking about Brooke moving out. My daughter, 18.5 is launching off to college 2000 miles away from us. we ended up buying her a nice house and are fully furnishing it. This way we get to come and visit ..its also our vacation getaway home. so a win win for us all . This way she feels the comforts of home , we feel like she is safe and has a good base. i know how hard these feelings are. I started watching you when she was 9 yrs old. SAHM mom too, took our kids eveywhere, blessed life beyond imagine. I too wish I could repeat the last 18 yrs blessings
No, your videos are not too long. In fact, I needed this video today. I work with a wonderful, but sometimes challenging, group of women. Lately the negativity has been running rampant. I needed to be in a place with positivity and femininity and love. Thank you. I forget how much I love your videos when too much time goes by and I don't watch. 💜💜
I have been following your channel for years and I have always appreciate so much how honest you are and how heartfelt - thank you Lisa!
Thank you so much, Anna! 🥰 Lisa
I started my day this morning listening to you talk about being a mother and Brooke moving out. Then you just shocked me when you mentioned that people hate you. . Lisa, you seem like such a kindhearted good wife, daughter and mother! Please ignore those haters, you are delightful on you tube, I have literally enjoyed viewing you for years!
This video touched my heart. When I think about all the seasons of my life I cry. Change is hard. But there is always something wonderful in the new season. Now I have grandkids! Your videos are never too long! Sometimes I don’t want them to end! I look forward to every single one! I hope you know you are our friend too!!!🥰💕
I loved this video! I too am/was a stay at home mom. My daughter is almost 19. My sons are both married at 21 and 24. My husband and I did so much with our kids. Scouts, dance, soccer, water polo, music lessons, show choir, camping, on and on. Those days are done. That chapter is over. The five of us going to the movies and dinner. Dinner each night around our table. The first time my oldest son was not with us on his birthday was so odd for me. I relate so much to your passion for motherhood. Being a mom has been my greatest joy. I am now a grandma and that is so special. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your heart with us! I’m right there with you!❤️ I look forward to us growing old together through TH-cam😉 You are such a bright spot in my week! My husband always asks when I’m watching a video if I’m watching Lisa! He knows how much I love you. We just celebrated 28 years and he is definitely my best friend! Love you Lisa!!
My youngest just graduated high school last night. I am feeling exactly the same way about him moving out. Exactly. Thank you for validating my feelings. Truly.
No your videos are not to long. I'm 64, & I think you are wise to broaden your topics for women. You have lived a full life & have shared experiences that can truly help the younger women of today. God Bless. Love from California
Definitely not long enough. I love your videos and the longer the better. I really hope you will do another TH-cam channel about gardening, cooking because i heard TH-cam has gotten strict with what you can upload on videos. We all love watching you and wish you could do a video everyday!! You inspire us all in every aspect of life not just beauty. You are truly a beautiful woman inside and out!!
We love our children that’s for sure. It’s okay to be excited and sad at the same time. Brook is your daughter and she will always be, all of her life. 💕
Nooooo never to long, particularly love your chatty ones. I love that you can appreciate higher end items and appreciate lower end items. You are a very well rounded person that seems to get better all the time!
Lisa,what an amazing video!!!! I cried with you...kids grow up so fast. I am so not ready for that...love your advices on everything. Looking forward to more videos like this,it helps so much in manu different aspects. Thank you!
I just found your channel a few days ago and wow....everything you said resonates with me. Thank you for sharing your experiences so authentically. 🥰
Hi Lisa! I am an OG LisaLisaD1 subscriber haha. I love you then and now, I always will! If I were to run into you one day (unlikely bc I live in the mountains, haha!), I would give you a huge hug. You have been a source of inspiration and warmth and comfort for me for sooo long. I felt compelled to comment bc you mentioned "hate watchers" and I wanted to raise my hand and let you know, here's a love watcher that's been here since the start! Hey! So glad you're here! Thank you for sharing your life with us! I was looking at my little 4 year old boy while watching this video and started tearing up when you were talking about Brooke.Time is just crazy--I don't understand it and never will--all I can do is do my best to be present while I can :) much love!! xoxox ~Holly
Hi Lisa , I feel the same don’t like the cold n climbing mountains. I Love tropical 🏝 places, beaches , boat , sun ☀️ 💃💃💃💃💃🙌 You look amazing 🤩 the tan u have is it fake lotion tan ?
Love your talks!! Keep up the length. You keep me company when I get ready in morning
Your videos are Not Too Long! I would definitely be a member in whatever I need to subscribe to for more content! This was a fun video to watch. Hated to see it end. May your days be as beautiful as your heart Lisa❤️
Oh Lisa! I am crying along with you!!! I have followed you since the beginning and you are my favorite friend here on TH-cam. I have little kids right now, but you have no idea how much I cry or get sad thinking about them getting older. I know that it goes by so fast and their time as little kids is just so magical and special. I try to soak in all of the moments with them. You are such a wonderful mom and your kids are so lucky! Thank you for this video. These chit chat type of videos are my favorite from you. You give the BEST advice and I just really love your views on things. You have a great way of putting things into words. Your videos are never too long! Sending big hugs to you!
Absolutely love this ! I don’t have any special vacation or place I’d like to go . I’m just happy being with people I love ! My husband and I are celebrating 29 yrs of marriage this Sunday and he’s truly my best friend. Dealing with my dad having cancer he knows I don’t need a lot of conversation about what’s going on he just puts his arm out hugs me and let’s me cry . He just knows what I need . When my daughter moved out I felt like I was a bad parent that she didn’t want to live with us anymore. Lol ! I helped her carry the last box into the house she would be living in with her roommates and I cried the whole way home . Where did this strong young woman come from ? We did it ! We raised strong young women ! Thank you so much for sharing and it all hits home and brings a smile . Thank you isn’t enough for the joy you bring . Thank you Thank you 🙏
Lisa! I've been a sub forever it feels. I'm in my thirties and ever since I found you I've been looking up to you for fashion and beauty. Not only that but it's very important for us girls to hear from those who've gone before us! Thank you for all your content ❤️
I love your chatty videos. Thanks for mentioning your gratitude notes in your calendar. Those types of tips etc are really encouraging to people.
Lisa..I have been watching u ever since u started and i have to say u always been my favourite person on TH-cam..But this video made me realise even more how much I appreciate you as a woman and how much positive vibe u reflect on all of us..U have my ultimate respect and my utmost love..Love u Lisa ❤️
no, not too long! I love hearing you be honest, and give your opinions- you are the real deal. Love hearing m ore about lifestyle, eating, and life in general.
So much wisdom dropped here! Lisa, thanks for keeping it 💯. So thankful for your presence here on TH-cam. We need each other! You inspire me so much!❤
Thank you!! 😊Lisa
I really enjoy watching your videos Lisa. They are the perfect length. I’m happy I can across your channel a few years ago. Thank you 😊 for the content.
I have watched you forever 😍… and my seasons of life have been similar… But what I loved about todays video is the fact that you always have owned your love of family and being a woman .. And I love you for that !!! I am the same in values and spirit and I love being a woman who loves her husband and kids and thrives in it !! You are truly beautiful inside and out 😘❤️
haha yesss RIP!!!! I am 38 and enjoy your videos and little life lessons! My 19 yr old daughter is still living at home while in college. I start crying thinking of her moving out. She is my only baby
I really want you to know that you make a difference in many of our lives. I think I have seen every single one of your videos. We are the same on many levels snd I always feel good knowing you are here!
Thank you so much, Darice!! 🥰😘
It is so funny because when I see your videos is like you are my friend from highschool, or a sister, it is so easy to be with you here in this space. Keep doing it!! Just do you! We love you.
You look gorgeous Lisa!!! I don’t think your videos are to long, I wish they were longer, but I understand. Also I feel the same way about missing your kids when they were little or younger. It’s hard letting them go. I almost cried with you! Thank you again, for sharing your life with us, we are all going threw something and maybe we all as women can help one another!
Lisa! I love your videos! Length of the videos are perfect! Thank you so much for continuing to do them 😊
