    If you two really weren't meant to be, separating when the child is very young is the best thing you can do. I was traumatised by my parents throughout my life, I used to beg my Mother to leave my father. It was a childhood of screaming, toxic energy, name calling, abusive patterns. They finally separated once I reached 19 but wow I think my life would have been far better and theirs too if they had just been honest that their was no marriage left.

It has been so beautiful to watch you evolve into the woman you are today. Someone in the comments said that this video had a "coming home to yourself" kind of vibe & I couldn't agree more.

    I’m gutted for you, life is hard, marriage is hard, marriage is even harder when one of you is struggling mentally. Marriage is hard with a first child. My husband and I separated after 3 years of marriage. He wouldn’t divorce me, we just lived our lives separate for a while. He did him. I did me. He did what made him happy, I found myself again and sorted my mind and 18 months later we dated again, we’ve now been back together for 5 years, we appreciate each other more and now have a second child. We grow we change. Take your time. Be you. You never know what the future will bring, but always be yourself x

    When you went to Copenhagen you had this different air to you, like your shoulders were just with less weight on them. I didn’t comment on it because it wasn’t my business + didn’t want to start something that would potentially get the comments going.
    It’s weird how so many of us females can sense what another female is expressing without saying one word, it’s sort of still somehow communicated with the body language without intention. Might be to do with us often being raised to be attentive of others?

I related to you so much & it was so fun & heartwarming watching you turn a hobby from your bedroom into a viable career.

Hearing you’ve been going through a hard time breaks my heart but I’m so happy that you’ve managed to really take the time to find yourself & listen to what to what your heart really wants. As a long time viewer I’ve noticed the change in you, You seem so much more confident & ready to talk on issues you previously would have kept quiet on, you seem to really be coming to terms with who you are as a person & you’re growth & happiness is so noticeable.

    Yasss, I'm so here for the spiritual content. I think spreading that kind of knowledge and potentially awakening someone to their purpose/calling will be very healing for you. Obviously a separation with a child involved isn't easy at all and everyone has to heal in their own way. But whenever I am dealing with anything heavy emotionally, being of service to other people/spreading happiness is tremendously healing for me. Like you said we are all going to die one day, and above all else, the thing we will treasure the most and leave on this earth as our legacy is the way we have positively impacted people.

It became a time where I woke up and i said "Im going to be unapologetically black, and if that bothers you, i dont give a fuck" Im sure as a mixed race person there are struggles with mixed identity but im so happy to see a new you.

      @TEA WITH MOLLY oh be quiet. The fact that her comment didn’t even target you, nor did she disrespect white people, yet you felt personally attacked and targeted by it. And your comment bringing up George Floyd’s criminal record to try and justify his murder speaks volumes about what you stand for. You’re the problem with society. She’s complaining about white supremacist systems and oppressive attitudes SHE, I and many other people of colour have faced up to, so for you to jump in and try and invalidate that is disgusting. I’ve experienced racism from schools, in job industries, and I’ve lived both in London and the north and the racism I experienced in the north was unimaginable. We would literally get called the n word on the street from people driving by in cars, seen my friend attacked and get her Afro yanked at because she wore it out one day (she had to fight them off), and on many occasions when entering establishments I would get stared at literally as if I wasn’t meant to be there. You even brought in your white whataboutism by trying to shout over a Black woman’s experience by bringing up your own as a white woman when no one asked. Who are you to swan in here, try to silence Black women, and tell people of colour not to speak up about their shared experiences and what they want to see changed. Many white people agree and love the fact that these issues are being spoken up about and are allies to the cause and helping stamp out racial inequality, so it’s actually you and ignorant self centred people like you that are making other white people look bad, certainly not the woman who’s comment you needlessly responded to.

I thought to myself, I hope she finds someone who edifies her, because he was not it. As someone who doesn't follow her channel, and wasn't really familiar, I sensed that immediately. But now I am a subscriber and can't wait to see her grow and rise in her journey!

I've never felt bad about my parents not being together. I'm sure you both will do the most wonderful job with raising Indie as seperated parents. Don't worry, everything will be fine :) xxx Louisa

    So much of what you said about BLM really hits home for me -- the anger, the conflicted feelings over whether you should have to expend emotional labor to teach those around you, the desire to reject eurocentric beauty standards in favor of natural black hair. I've been watching your channel for years and I've never identified with you more than in this video. I hope you're doing okay and I can't wait to see how these changes in your mindset translate to new videos (whenever you're ready!). ❤️

I have identified with all of the cultural identity conflicts you have spoken about on your channel regarding hair, skin tone and the confusion and learning that goes along with it(I even have the exact same natural hair type to you) I’ve never met you or spoken to you but have always felt like you are a friend who just lives far away. I just wanted to express how much I admire you. Your strength and articulate way of discussing your feelings and experiences is hugely appreciated and making such a difference for me and other mixed people who watch your work. You are beautiful inside and out. Much love x

    Sammi, glad to see you back and in better spirits! Sidenote - to get your hair to stay, you need a crochet hook (you can get one at the beauty supply store). Insert the hook under the rubberband, put the extension hair in the hook, pull one side of the extension hair through under the rubberband, and then you'll be able to braid like normal. The hair won't come out because it is anchored under the rubberband! I have fine hair like yours and it works perfectly for me.

    I've recently come out of a grey couple of months as well, I have had them on and off for years now (ever since I stood on the brink of depression, I feel like that's something difficult to walk away from). I have been feeling very unmotivated and uninspired and a couple of days ago I realized that I have been pushing myself in too narrow boxes. I have so many interests, but for some reason I didn't allow myself to really dive into them. So that's what I'm doing now :) I'm starting my own webdesign & social media management business, I have started a new blog to talk about the things I love (books, gardening, writing, witchy vibes). I'm rediscovering myself every day and I really hope you will too. Sometimes I forget what things I like and it's hard to know everyone around you but not yourself. Good luck with the new chapter :) you have so many left to go!! Have fun! (very much looking forward to the new jewellery line!!!)
