Waiting until you're hungry in the morning is such a trap y'all 😭 Your body goes from 'what a nice morning' to 'I'M DYING' really fast haha. I always eat something, even if I feel nauseous in the morning (it helps even though it feels counter-intuitive). Everyone is different of course, but an early breakfast is non-negotiable for me!
One trick I've learned with doing my nails, is I do my right hand first so I don't have to overcome the difficulty of painting with my non dominant hand with the nails wet.
I drink sleepy tea with valerian when I’m having a panic or anxiety “flare ups” and need sleep, too. Valerian is a life saver! Ashwagandha and kava kava are both good for anxiety, too. Also a company called Bluebonnet makes really good valerian capsules. Theirs are from extract and standardized… highly recommended.
Your puppy just loves you so much 🥲 she was right along side at the end for the deep chat 🥹🥹💓 I think you are incredible how you have continued to create content thru everything you deal with… raw and honest. Thanks for doing that for us 🫶🫶 ps I like how you don’t always glam/ get fully dressed to pick up the camera, keeps it real and takes the pressure off to always look on point 💪🏼🌝😎
Caitlyn from From my Bowl and Nisha from Rainbow Plant Life are my top 2 favorite YT recipes creators/foodie channels!! I have to try the beans, you made them sound delicious. Have you ever tried Minimalist Bakers' recipes? She has good ones too. Also props to you for being so dedicated to your run. You're super productive in the am and that's awesome.
I’ve been vegetarian for decades and I’ve NEVER heard of soy curls. Just looked them up. They don’t sell them where I live but I was able to order them on Amazon. Thank you!
I really love this type of videos! They give me so much inspo for my recipes eheh 🍃 I was also thinking about relationships in general the past month, especially friendships growing apart and how challenging it is to take proper time to be with friends! Making new friends, learning about different perspectives, is really something I want to get better at :) ps. Lil Queen Olive is the cutest!! Sending lots of love from Italy 🍝
What a lovely vlog! ☺ The grocery hauls are super interesting, and i love how inspirational the foods you make are! Thank you for nice video again 🤗about the achievement and growth, I think not all the time we need to grow or achieve things, sometimes just living life, enjoying it or even just surviving can be enough. And sometime later we can see that those were the moments where we grew the most. I don't know if this makes any sense, but the chat at the end made me think that. You've gone through so much last year, be proud of yourself! 🫶
Wow such a heart felt vlog, brought tears to My eyes listening to the last part. I could feel your thoughts as you were talking, such a heart felt moment. Don't change, you are a very compassionate person.
Loved having a food vlog, I am so lazy about food and it's nice to get inspired to eat differently and better! I recommend you try the Rise Kombucha Raspberry and Vanilla flavour if you're trying to take a break from another flavour! I'm obsessed, it doesn't have added sugar, the bubbly hits the spot just like a soda would, and the spices in it are really nice too, not at all like drinking a "health drink". I too feel I have had the most unproductive year, I grew up quite lonely and dissociated so I am more used to talking to myself rather than to other people, and therefore maintaining relationships has been tough for me, but me and myself have talked and come to the conclusion (lol) that I can't really regret any of my struggles because they have taught me so much about myself and about my needs. I have so much introspection because I have those struggles to contrast to, and I feel that is what you were experiencing in your outro. I personally would enjoy listening to any more moments of introspection you may experience, it is so nice to reflect with someone other than myself lol
Hi Fern, I really enjoy both your channels! It seems to me that you accomplish a lot! Don’t be too hard on yourself. Take care 😊 Olive is so cute at the end of the video…
It's a great feeling to stock up on all that food! ...then I finished watching your video to hear about your family member going to the hospital..Oh no..I hope they recovered well, and to know your fridge is now empty....sometimes it feels never ending...but you had so many great meals after that haul! Your meals are so healthy!
I agree with your friend, I’m over here applauding you for all of your self discipline that seems to be benefitting your mental health. And the self care vs neglecting your friends was a good point that I need to consider more.
Omg the pink thing, I completely understand. I've also come to terms with how my aversion to pink was completely out of wack. You just put into words though! Internalized misogynism. It also explains my aversion to some other things as well... Well, thank you, now I know what I'm actually working on this year!
I absolutely love your Fern & Olive videos - made my morning! Your grocery hauls and cooking are so therapeutically calming for me. Just what I needed after staying up until 1:30am watching after my Yorkie Chihuahua after having her at the vet for over 11 hrs yesterday, just for a teeth cleaning. And then found out she needed a molar taken out🥺.
Oh nooo I hope your sweet doggy is okay 🥺 Vet stuff is the worst, so stressful. Hope you're able to get some rest and relaxation in today 💚 thanks for watching x
I love your vlogs and always look forward to them. Also love the whole food aspect and sharing what you make. I’ve also been working on the relationships that truly align with who I am. I think having a couple good friends is better then a lot of friends you don’t truly connect with on a deep level. I also can see your growth so don’t worry too much. Love ya Fern!❤
Thank you for watching!! And me too, I am much happier with just a few close friends rather than stretching myself too thin and feeling like I’m not truly getting to know people 💚
That robe!!! (Housecoat, that’s what we called it growing up too!) It looks so warm and lovely! Can I ask where it’s from?! I’m been looking for a new one!
I agree that I feel like I haven’t done much this year but still have done the most. I’m trying to stop over thinking my life and just living. Easier said than done.
Many things I'd like to say but the most important thing i wanna raise that it's ok to not grow! The internet makes us want to constantly improve and move forward but it's ok to stay at a stage for awhile!!
I feel the same way about "taking care of yourself". I tend to self isolate and thats pretty much the opposite of selfcare. I really need to be more aware when I need time to rest and be with myself or when I want to isolate because I feel unwell. It is a journey and thanks for talking about it
Absolutely love your grocery hauls, I recently switched to vegetarian and gluten free these help so much with recipes and definitely helps with grocery store anxiety 🫶🏻
Bulk Barn is the place to go for nooch. And if you bring your own containers on Sunday you get a 15% discount (not from sale prices though). Also a great place to get nuts, dried fruit, beans, lentils, spices, TVP (great for easy ground beef alternative). Bulk Barn is great for vegans!
It does feel chillier here earlier than usual. I live in the desert 🏜️ so obviously not the same temperatures.. but still it got chilly here in October… which is unheard of.. no hard freezes yet.. that I can recall.. but really close. 🥶
It's Thanksgiving and I want you to know that I am grateful for you. Sometimes we're so consumed by our should haves and could haves that we can't see how much we've actually brought to the table. So whoever it was you were talking to, they were right. I do feel that you've grown immensely and growth sometimes is painful, and always hard, but in the end, it's always worth it. Hugs, my dear. You are loved by so many and I hope you can feel it.
Hi dear ❤ I’m following you for the longest time… when you talk about mental health, plants, your daily activities… I find my voice in your talks… and I truly like you, like a never seen friend or sister… it might be unbelievable for you when you find out I’m a girl from Iran… I don’t know if you know what’s happening in Iran these days for us Iranian people, more importantly for women here… here we are experiencing the biggest woman „revolution „ in the world… have you seen handmaid‘s tale? We are experiencing it first handedly… and for me, with a phd in sociology, oh dear… it’s a war… and adding to it my mental health issues, panic attacks, social anxiety, depression, it’s destroying me… just wanted to tell you, your videos, your voice… it’s like a safe place for my mind… thank you… love you from Iran… and will keep watching you while I’m still alive… ❤️🩹🕊
I know that this video was from a few months ago and it’s getting warmer now, but maybe this will help for the future - I run half marathons, and when I run in the snow and ice, I either wear trail shoes or put a pair of YakTrax on my regular running shoes. The YakTrax are great for ice especially, and might be nice for walking Olive 😊
i love watching what other vegans shop, its so fun to see cool recipes and try them sometimes. Also i want so bad for JUST egg to be sold in my country😭 it looks so cool
I've been hooked on making soy curl "chicken" stew and dumplings this fall. I usually get my nooch at Bulk Barn....you can get quite a bit for a good deal. Those beans look incredible!
Those SunGold kiwis are like freaking candy! They are so sweet. I lived on them back in the spring/summer when they were in season. I made the mistake of giving my daughter a bite and she immediately was addicted and I had to share them with her from that moment forward.
I love these vlogs!!!! Great tips!!!💜 🪴💚🥰 I have been following your channel for quite awhile and have seen such a wonderful blossoming in you! Fern, you truly brighten my day every time I see your videos and bring something good to my life! With sincere appreciation my dearest!!! Thank you!!! 🙏💜🙏
Love this video! I make vegan/gluten free tomato soup with just roasted tomatoes (i had soooo many from my garden) and used veggie broth and if I had some I added a roasted sweet potato for thickness.. I have a baked bean recipe but mine take hours of slow roasting.. Can't wait to try the stroganof 👍
Fern you cannot imagine how much i enjoy this this channel of yours and especially this video was sooooo amazing!!! I mean i like so much to watch the grocery hauls and the things you buy and i love when you do the organizing thing after the haul that you put them on the fridge etc. so calming and i enjoy it fully! i also wanted to say that you are so fcking cute and you seem like an amazing person, so try not to be to hard on yourself - i know it is difficult ,but one step at a time- and when you are love yourself a bit more. when i see people crying i just cant , i mean i saw you and i was like give me the tissues. but on the other hand i love that you are true and you open up to us! i really appreciate it to you! you are so adorable, kid! and whenever you feel bad or something remember that if it's not okay it won't last forever and it's not the end because in the end it's going to be okay! i send you many many many virtual hugs!!! much love and many kisses to you and Olive, Evelyn 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Wow lots of stuff to digest and I'm the one watching. Please give yourself a pat on the back although it seems like you didn't achive much, you are still a successful youtuber, rare plant collector, teacher, awesome vegan chef 🤌, responsible pup mom to Olive, a girlfriend 🤭, friend and amazing woman 💪. Some days all we need to do is survive in order to thrive! Here's to achiving our goals ☕️☕️ (cheers w tea)
Hi lovely, those beans looked amazing. Was it too much dijon mustard?? I would love the recipe but I guess you can't share. Thanks so much for your wonderful content.
I bought that Daiya flatbread as well because I heard really good things, but it was not good at all! Also - Bulk Barn has nutritional yeast in bulk at a good price. That’s the only place I’ll buy it now
That’s funny, I’ve had a similar experience with just egg. The first couple times I tried it I wasn’t a fan & now I’m hooked for some reason. Maybe we just had to acclimate to the taste/texture?
Superstore is pretty good..I enjoy 1 stop shopping. And PC points really come in handy. That dishware you got in the giveaway are really nice. Their giveaways are pretty hit or miss 🤣
Yes I love collecting points! I think this is actually the first time I’ve been eligible for the free gift since living alone and I was pleasantly surprised by this one :)
@@cozyplantlady11 That was a really good one! I knew I was going grocery shopping yesterday so last week I deferred some offers and ended up with a boat load of points. They even gave me points for bringing my own bags, which is new (I was at No Frills) nice surprise
I thinking regarding the is self care making us bad friends notion - I think social media is totally to blame. We’re always in a weird space of knowing what our friends are up to to a degree without having to actually talk to them directly which isn’t natural human interaction! I think even just seeing that they took a weekend trip or went to brunch online can tap in to our social meter and drain it even though we aren’t actually engaging with that friend. I think a step in the right direction is less time on social media at least when you know you want very intentional alone time so that you truly crave that friend and human interaction when today that line is constantly blurred while you’re having “alone time” at home but seeing what others are doing online.
Hi from Germany 👋I really enjoy this kind of video 😊 I'm just a vegetarian but I'm always looking for new recipes and meal ideas and new things to try ☺ please don't get discouraged by some silly comment! Also relating to what you said about friendship so much - I feel like it gets so much more complicated the older you get, especially making new friends 😕
Some good advice I got recently was that the best thing you can do for your mental health is to be selfless and literally think of yourself less. By serving others and giving your time and resources to help and love others, you will be giving yourself the gift of a full cup too. That is why everyone is suffering from depression and anxiety these days. They are being told to focus only on themselves and their own selfish desires. We were not put on this earth to feed our own desires. We are here to love others.
Wow I felt exactly like that about pink when I was a girl. Now I wanna wear dusty pink or Barbie pink all the time! Absolutely love it. And love being a girly women! I always thought I had to be tough and cool like my dad when I was a kid. 😅 screw that! Still metal asf tho 🤘 😂
Its not just you, this year has truly been one of the roughest years for me. I am the same with friendships and I am okay with the way things are because honestly with a full time job, a daughter and a relationship and family I am plenty overwhelmed as it is... I would not know how to make time for more friends 😪 😭
I just don’t understand what these types of videos are supposed to accomplish besides making others feel bad about themselves or to make the poster feel more self righteous about their own lifestyle. What is the goal? I just know there’s so much more interesting about you as an individual than what you eat and your external appearance
it's a vlog, I'm sharing my life. food and cooking are a big part of my life and a major interest of mine. why did you click a what I eat in a week video if you're not interested in food?
I don't understand why this video would make a viewer feel bad about themselves 🤔 I enjoyed this video, I got a few ideas to try for food. I don't follow the same type of diet as Fern, but I like to try new things out. I wouldn't have known about these recipes if I hadn't watched this...
What would you rather she posted about? There's all kinds of content to choose from on social media. Fern's content is enjoyable to many of us because she is honest and relatable. She's built a lovely, respectful community on here, which takes much more than a pretty face. Honestly, if watching a beautiful, cheerful young woman taking care of herself bothers you, there might be some introspection and self-reflection needed on your end to find out why. P. S. Please, before anyone starts bitching about my English, please know I'm not a native speaker, I'm doing my best here 👍🏽
Nicole… you had the CHOICE to click on this video and watch it. You CHOSE to do so and then you had the nerve to complain about the type of video it was. The title CLEARLY STATES what type of video it is. You CHOSE to be here and you CHOSE to be offended by it. This is all your doing. Not Fern’s. If you feel bad about your lifestyle, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. Don’t project your bad feelings about yourself on others. You control your life and Fern controls hers. That being said, I hope you’re able to find some compassion for yourself and others. Take a moment for some self care, love and reflection. And breathe.
watching this video again, 4 months later and hearing you say you don’t think you had accomplished a lot in the past year🥹 every year that goes by that i’ve been following along i get so much more proud of you!! (obviously through a screen) you are so motivating and you need to give yourself more credit!! you are doing amazing and i hope you look back and feel that too
Hi dear ❤ I’m following you for the longest time… when you talk about mental health, plants, your daily activities… I find my voice in your talks… and I truly like you, like a never seen friend or sister… it might be unbelievable for you when you find out I’m a girl from Iran… I don’t know if you know what’s happening in Iran these days for us Iranian people, more importantly for women here… here we are experiencing the biggest woman „revolution „ in the world… have you seen handmaid‘s tale?

Waiting until you're hungry in the morning is such a trap y'all 😭 Your body goes from 'what a nice morning' to 'I'M DYING' really fast haha. I always eat something, even if I feel nauseous in the morning (it helps even though it feels counter-intuitive). Everyone is different of course, but an early breakfast is non-negotiable for me!
One trick I've learned with doing my nails, is I do my right hand first so I don't have to overcome the difficulty of painting with my non dominant hand with the nails wet.
I drink sleepy tea with valerian when I’m having a panic or anxiety “flare ups” and need sleep, too. Valerian is a life saver! Ashwagandha and kava kava are both good for anxiety, too. Also a company called Bluebonnet makes really good valerian capsules. Theirs are from extract and standardized… highly recommended.
Your puppy just loves you so much 🥲 she was right along side at the end for the deep chat 🥹🥹💓 I think you are incredible how you have continued to create content thru everything you deal with… raw and honest. Thanks for doing that for us 🫶🫶 ps I like how you don’t always glam/ get fully dressed to pick up the camera, keeps it real and takes the pressure off to always look on point 💪🏼🌝😎
Caitlyn from From my Bowl and Nisha from Rainbow Plant Life are my top 2 favorite YT recipes creators/foodie channels!! I have to try the beans, you made them sound delicious. Have you ever tried Minimalist Bakers' recipes? She has good ones too. Also props to you for being so dedicated to your run. You're super productive in the am and that's awesome.
Yes!! I always need inspo on vegan meals etc!! Plus, LOVE a vlog 💚
yayyyy thank you Jen 💚
I’ve been vegetarian for decades and I’ve NEVER heard of soy curls. Just looked them up. They don’t sell them where I live but I was able to order them on Amazon. Thank you!
Yes!! I feel the same about pink colour. I used to hate it when growing up and now I'm starting to realize that it's actually such a pretty colour.
You can make a big batch of your beans and freeze in portion sizes, they freeze beautifully and it's so convenient 😊
This style of vlog was so entertaining to watch. Hope you make more of these in the future ☺
What a good baby Olive is she is so attentive to your voice and feelings Fern. We Love you 😍 ❤
I really love this type of videos! They give me so much inspo for my recipes eheh 🍃
I was also thinking about relationships in general the past month, especially friendships growing apart and how challenging it is to take proper time to be with friends!
Making new friends, learning about different perspectives, is really something I want to get better at :)
ps. Lil Queen Olive is the cutest!!

Yes I need to go! Thank you :)
i love watching what other vegans shop, its so fun to see cool recipes and try them sometimes. Also i want so bad for JUST egg to be sold in my country😭 it looks so cool
thank you so much for watching! hope just egg arrives soon 🥺
@@cozyplantlady11 thank you, Fern😭 ill update the comment when it does😂
I've been hooked on making soy curl "chicken" stew and dumplings this fall.

mmm so good! and yes, great idea, I haven't actually been to bulk barn since before 2020 happened 👀 need to go back!
Happy Thanksgiving Fern I hope you and Olive have a great day. Love ya honey
Those SunGold kiwis are like freaking candy! They are so sweet. I lived on them back in the spring/summer when they were in season. I made the mistake of giving my daughter a bite and she immediately was addicted and I had to share them with her from that moment forward.

Hi fern, is it possible, if you come to Vancouver that you make a vlog at the new Apple Pacific Centre in Vancouver?
would love more foodie vids & hauls 💚💚
Thanx Fern for light vlog! Why do you freez banana for smoothie? It doesn’t make smoothie too cold, especially in winter time?
No problem, thanks for watching! I like my smoothies really cold/frozen, even in the winter 😃

Yesss Pacific Foods has the BEST tomato soups! 👅👅I love the roasted red pepper one they make but I’m not sure if it’s vegan.
I can totally relate to your thoughts about pink😅
Hi lovely, those beans looked amazing. Was it too much dijon mustard?? I would love the recipe but I guess you can't share. Thanks so much for your wonderful content.
I’m crazing those beans! Yum
Love seeing vegan products that I can actually buy in Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️ Thanks for the inspo!
You're so welcome! 🌱
It's ok cry! 💕 hope you feel better!!
YOU MAKE MY DAY WATCHING GOOD VIDEO!!!!!!
Go to Bulk Barn for nutritional yeast (and so much more) 😁
I bought that Daiya flatbread as well because I heard really good things, but it was not good at all! Also - Bulk Barn has nutritional yeast in bulk at a good price. That’s the only place I’ll buy it now
Yeah I definitely won’t be buying again, it was so blah lol 😩 thank you! Need to make a trip to bulk barn
I love your foodie videos.
Thank you so much!
Love food videoes!How do you use the nutritional Yeast?
It's mostly used in things like sauces, soups, pastas, etc. It's also good on popcorn 🍿
That’s funny, I’ve had a similar experience with just egg. The first couple times I tried it I wasn’t a fan & now I’m hooked for some reason. Maybe we just had to acclimate to the taste/texture?
Oh that’s too funny haha :) yeah, I guess so!
What is your lip color at 35:30?? So pretty! Loved this vlog ☺️

Does your gym have an indoor running track?!

@@cozyplantlady11 thank you 💜
I have some mooncat but I don't like it because they stay wet and take so long to dry I don't know why. 😕
Loved the food vlog!
Superstore is pretty good..I enjoy 1 stop shopping. And PC points really come in handy. That dishware you got in the giveaway are really nice. Their giveaways are pretty hit or miss 🤣
Yes I love collecting points! I think this is actually the first time I’ve been eligible for the free gift since living alone and I was pleasantly surprised by this one :)
@@cozyplantlady11 That was a really good one! I knew I was going grocery shopping yesterday so last week I deferred some offers and ended up with a boat load of points. They even gave me points for bringing my own bags, which is new (I was at No Frills) nice surprise
What ninja foodi do you have? I’m wanting one but have no idea which one to get 🙈
Tendercrisp - the 9 in 1
Are the just egg thingys in the freezer isle?
They are in my grocery stores
@@megshush thanks so helpful
I thinking regarding the is self care making us bad friends notion - I think social media is totally to blame. We’re always in a weird space of knowing what our friends are up to to a degree without having to actually talk to them directly which isn’t natural human interaction! I think even just seeing that they took a weekend trip or went to brunch online can tap in to our social meter and drain it even though we aren’t actually engaging with that friend. I think a step in the right direction is less time on social media at least when you know you want very intentional alone time so that you truly crave that friend and human interaction when today that line is constantly blurred while you’re having “alone time” at home but seeing what others are doing online.
Yes, 100% agree. Social media is definitely hurting our ability to connect IRL :(
I LIKE HAKUNALAPLANTA TOO🕶🕶🕶🕶🕶🕶🕶🕶🕶🕶
Good blog,good food and your cute🐶👍
💚🌵☘️🌱
Hi from Germany 👋I really enjoy this kind of video 😊 I'm just a vegetarian but I'm always looking for new recipes and meal ideas and new things to try ☺ please don't get discouraged by some silly comment! Also relating to what you said about friendship so much - I feel like it gets so much more complicated the older you get, especially making new friends 😕
Day light savings time messes with my sleep
Some good advice I got recently was that the best thing you can do for your mental health is to be selfless and literally think of yourself less. By serving others and giving your time and resources to help and love others, you will be giving yourself the gift of a full cup too. That is why everyone is suffering from depression and anxiety these days. They are being told to focus only on themselves and their own selfish desires. We were not put on this earth to feed our own desires. We are here to love others.

LOVE KEVIN GLASSAS👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓👓
Wow I felt exactly like that about pink when I was a girl. Now I wanna wear dusty pink or Barbie pink all the time! Absolutely love it. And love being a girly women! I always thought I had to be tough and cool like my dad when I was a kid. 😅 screw that! Still metal asf tho 🤘 😂
Nice 👌 In 2022 we can all enjoy tasty food without needing to involve any 🐄🐓🐇🐖🦆🐟 #veganeasy #subscribed
🥰💛

Did you just say 5° is not bad? 😵💫
Bahaha yes! I’m in Celsius 😅
@@cozyplantlady11 oh. I was like omg, how is she so immune to the cold? 🤣🤣🤣
You look like zooey deschanel
Its not just you, this year has truly been one of the roughest years for me. I am the same with friendships and I am okay with the way things are because honestly with a full time job, a daughter and a relationship and family I am plenty overwhelmed as it is... I would not know how to make time for more friends 😪 😭
I'm sorry you've had a tough year too 🥺 Awe yes, I totally get it! You deserve all the you time you can get 💚
I don't have any friends anymore. I'm 45 now
I just don’t understand what these types of videos are supposed to accomplish besides making others feel bad about themselves or to make the poster feel more self righteous about their own lifestyle. What is the goal? I just know there’s so much more interesting about you as an individual than what you eat and your external appearance
it's a vlog, I'm sharing my life. food and cooking are a big part of my life and a major interest of mine. why did you click a what I eat in a week video if you're not interested in food?
I don't understand why this video would make a viewer feel bad about themselves 🤔 I enjoyed this video, I got a few ideas to try for food. I don't follow the same type of diet as Fern, but I like to try new things out. I wouldn't have known about these recipes if I hadn't watched this...
Not sure how you got that from this video at all. Projecting your own issues on to an innocent stranger on TH-cam is not cute sis.
What would you rather she posted about? There's all kinds of content to choose from on social media. Fern's content is enjoyable to many of us because she is honest and relatable. She's built a lovely, respectful community on here, which takes much more than a pretty face. Honestly, if watching a beautiful, cheerful young woman taking care of herself bothers you, there might be some introspection and self-reflection needed on your end to find out why.
P. S. Please, before anyone starts bitching about my English, please know I'm not a native speaker, I'm doing my best here 👍🏽
Nicole… you had the CHOICE to click on this video and watch it. You CHOSE to do so and then you had the nerve to complain about the type of video it was. The title CLEARLY STATES what type of video it is. You CHOSE to be here and you CHOSE to be offended by it. This is all your doing. Not Fern’s. If you feel bad about your lifestyle, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. Don’t project your bad feelings about yourself on others. You control your life and Fern controls hers. That being said, I hope you’re able to find some compassion for yourself and others. Take a moment for some self care, love and reflection. And breathe.
watching this video again, 4 months later and hearing you say you don’t think you had accomplished a lot in the past year🥹 every year that goes by that i’ve been following along i get so much more proud of you!! (obviously through a screen) you are so motivating and you need to give yourself more credit!! you are doing amazing and i hope you look back and feel that too
Hi! Is your kettle the one that’s by buydeem and basically $200 on Amazon? And is it good? Worth the money? Looking for a new one! 🫖
Hi dear ❤ I’m following you for the longest time… when you talk about mental health, plants, your daily activities… I find my voice in your talks… and I truly like you, like a never seen friend or sister… it might be unbelievable for you when you find out I’m a girl from Iran… I don’t know if you know what’s happening in Iran these days for us Iranian people, more importantly for women here… here we are experiencing the biggest woman „revolution „ in the world… have you seen handmaid‘s tale? We are experiencing it first handedly… and for me, with a phd in sociology, oh dear… it’s a war… and adding to it my mental health issues, panic attacks, social anxiety, depression, it’s destroying me… just wanted to tell you, your videos, your voice… it’s like a safe place for my mind… thank you… love you from Iran… and will keep watching you while I’m still alive… ❤️🩹🕊
