As someone who just turned 24 and has a pretty regular life but has also struggled with self doubt. It's good to have a channel that reminds me I don't halfto save the world or launch a tech start up I can just work and live that's enough.
That's me too, I turned 24 a week ago! Taurus gangg. Nice to see 'normal'
Love that your channel is growing, please don’t ever feel compelled to upload and upload and upload. Please take care of yourself and if you need breaks take them, because when you return from them it’s always a pleasant surprise for us.❤
thanks Ana, you're the best!
Your absolute REALNESS is everything lifestyle vlogging has needed for a very long time!!!! 100% was like yes, yes, yes when you admitted to exchanging the jeans for a new size but not feeling like trying them on and being like this problem is for a different day 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 so relatable ❤❤❤❤ love what you are doing, keep it up!!!
your comment made me feel understood in the best way, thank you!!!
I don’t know about any of the other new subscribers or anyone else watching….do you really care if she “takes outside” at all???? Not me! Love love love listening, watching and being here to see what Chelsea is up to this week. Go, Chelsea, Go! Soaring with you!!!
thank you for this!
Once I got in to the habit of waking up a little bit early in the morning, it felt sooo good to do something for myself first thing in the morning. A quick energizing yoga session or journaling or whatever makes you feel human...
I’ve also found that planning a trip makes me get through the work grind with renewed vigour - even a weekend or day trip is so refreshing.
Thank you for sharing ❤
Yes, planning a trip helps me a lot too! Something to look forward to makes a huge difference. Currently planning my wedding and even though it's next summer it is having the same effect.
love these tips, thanks :)
Chelsea, I love your content! Your page makes me feel less alone. As a fellow burnt out millennial figuring out life, I appreciate you so much!
Also yes, I have down to the minute what time I have to get up for work. I set my alarm early everyday and stay in bed anyway 😂🤦🏻♀️
Chelsea! I’m a new subscriber, and I’ve got to tell you that I’m loving the content! Good editing, and honest vlogs….I’m here for it, mix in the humour and you got a great cocktail. All the best for a great weekend 😀
thanks Leta ❤️
I found you recently by chance. I'm a Chicago thirty something who finds peace being home alone, you have definitely stumbled upon your people. Or vice versa. Glad to be here!
so glad you found me!
I’m a Brit and work in London/City - we only have to head in 2-3 days a week and can work from home 1-2 days (or be out somewhere else). I can’t believe you guys only get two weeks vacation a year! Is that right? Seems insane. We get 25 days plus bank holidays in my firm. I hope you do make time for yourself. I’m a bit of a yes person and take a lot on at work and sometimes a break or long weekend that’s planned ahead makes all the difference. Love your channel. Keep up the lovely authentic, real posts :) xx
Dropped everything I'm doing to watch this in its entirety. I'm perched!
You’re the best!
Yesss to community! Sisterhood!
Nice videos Darling!! What a different life you've got compared to me. So interesting to see yours.
I live in javea Spain with my 4 cats. . Look it up! Its gorgeous and I work parttime. I don't like to rush things geheh.
I appreciate your honesty! Makes me feel happy knowing I am not alone. Sometimes my body isn't ready for the day. You are amazing. Keep it up!!!
💓
I've moved to Brooklyn as a kid and been here for 30 years. It's been refreshing to see an NYC vlogger who, to me, at least comes off as genuine. Your videos are relatable, and I enjoyed the ones I've seen. I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel.
that's so awesome! glad you found my channel too :)
I miss your videos! I hope your doing well Chelsea.
New subscriber I just found you today and I really like your videos !! The realness and pacing etc. keep going, from a fellow TH-camr 💖
glad you found me :) thanks for watching!
100% procrastinating on waking up. I feel you! Been binge-watching your channel thanks to algorithm. Totally relate to every little bit you're going thru as 30-sumthin
You look so different with out glases! Beautiful in a way. I would suggest you wear contacts 😊
I have them!! Just don’t wear them a lot :)
Does your job promote any kind of work/life balance? It’s bit troubling they are pinging you after work hours. Maybe it’s time for a change? If you’re trying to sleep as late as possible, you might be on the road to burnout. Take care of yourself.
my work is good about work life balance generally! some weeks are just busier than others for sure.
hahaha i avoided Abercrombie too
Why are you still wearing a paper mask? It's 2023.
you know that NYC subway smells like shit right?
10:48 your whispers are SO soothing. Please do ASMR!
You aren’t alone. I had this life in the uk in my thirties. I was happy living alone and turned down two proposals. I then met my other half and we moved in when I was 38. It was a huge adjustment for someone naturally bent to enjoy solitude. I miss my old apartment but generally life is different but good. I think we would have been friends back in the day.
thanks for sharing! love your story :)
ohmygod, that morning routine thing where you end up waking up later and later is ME. I think I'm never as productive as when I wake up in the morning. I used to do that even in high school, find the most productive way I can get ready so I get to sleep for 4 more minutes. I don't particularly like doing that, because if anything goes wrong in my 10minute morning routine (that has me brushing my teeth in the shower and sometimes yes - TMI - eating a protein bar on the toilet), then I'm immediatly late for my work. It's a lot of stress, I would much prefer just wake up and take my time, but my morning brain just doesn't want to, me and my waking up self are just two different person 🙄 thank you for sharing that, I felt seen 😂
Great video! Because you asked what "Gigli" is pronounced: the first "G" is spoken like a "J" from the name "Jay" as an example. And the second "g" is not pronounced at all, but together with the "l" is rather like a normal "l" with the sound of "y" like in "you" after, so rather like "tshilyi", if that makes sense...hope i could help you pronounce it better :D
thank you!!!
Great video Chelsea! Always enjoy watching your videos. The jeans look great on you. I need to find jeans to give me a butt lift(I'm in my 50's now lol) Its nice to watch your video as it reminds me of the days back in my 30's. I enjoy watching how the younger generations are doing. It is definitley a differend world now!
My sister is finishing her bachelor's degree. For the last three years I have encouraged her and she always asks me for advice and reports to me about her grades and progress AND TINA IS THE GIF WE ALWAYS SEND to EACH OTHER WHENEVER SHE COMPLETES/KICKS ASS IN SCHOOL. Mostly because my sister had the same haircut as Tina, just without the glasses. Tina is our code for job well done. I just had to share this, it made me feel so warm to see Tina in your video. Hopefully she is your code for life as well! :)
Wow- I'm so happy with how fast your channel has been growing! Loving the vlogs ^___^
Heyyy thanks!
NINETY DOLLARS FOR JEANS!?????
First world problems for sure but its wild how something like a good pair of jeans is technically a luxury item.
Chelsea, your videos are so great, we are happy you here, please continue to vlog as I'm always sad when it's the end of the video😢
Hellohooo from Germany! I love your Videos. Thank you so much for your Videos. ❤
Does 9-6 mean you work 6 days and 9 hours each day?
Also YWA is awesome 🥰
Hi!! 9-6 are the hours I work Monday through Friday :)
It means five days a week (probably) from 9:00 until 18:00
@@wojtekkauzny6634 ohh yes exactly, thanks!
Me! I have tight hips and I hate with passion yoga with Adriane xd she talks too much, doesn't give the cues on time and that stresses me out >:C Sara Beth yoga is much better for me :3 also it's kinda crazy to work 9 to 6. add commute and you work like 10h a day :| where's time to live?
She does talk a lot 😂😂 thanks for the recommendation for Sara Beth!
@@ChelseaCallahan I hope you will try her out and enjoy her classes. she has the most calming vibes and I love her flows ^^
OMG yes, I still do yoga with Adrienne occasionally, but I have to already be in a very calm mood so I don't get annoyed.
What you said around 2:56 is so relatable. I need to change something and I need a job that starts later than 7am
Drinking coffee and watching your video at the same time is just awesome! I need a link to that cute bath mat! :D
As a watch this from bed and it’s 830…like I could have gotten up at 7am when my eyes opened but nooooooooo.😂😂😂😂😂 I’ve got so much work that I should have def been up but I work from home. At least you get to see NYC and have a reason to eventually get out of bed. 😂😂😂😂😂 one day I will be in NYC and be out of bed. 😅😅😅😅
I procrastinate so much with everything . Terrible. Stuck in my life not moving forward xxx
Did I just back watched all your vids? Maybe.
Love ya
Im the opposite w timing. Ive been getting up earlier and earlier. Im NOT a Morning Person.
But getting up earlier gives me more quiet alone time. Im really antisocial and have social anxiety
More now than ever. I even. Alled out of work yest bc I just couldnt do it. Anyway keep pushing
Youre motivating me to try to summon up the motivation to move back to NYC again
Hi Chelsea warning I am feeling a bit big sisterly today so while I know you are fine Im going to advise you 😊 . I had been backtracking your videos and lost track of you. So glad to have found you again. I wonder if you need to set better boundaries with work! If you don't have people under you then when you get home you really should be unavailable and doing your own thing!
I have been wondering if you have any strategies to combat becoming cynical or jaded or pessimistic from living in the city. I'm not saying you are any of those and not responding to anything in any particular video. I'm asking if you ever feel it creeping in and what do you do about it?
Great body wash on a budget? Neutrogena Rainbath...i love the classic brown one, can't even describe the smell. Warm and sophisticated and unique. Do you like chanel no 5? It's sort of like that. And some stores have duped it making it even cheaper. I also love dr bronners soaps which can be used to clean you and anything in your apartment! I mix the eucalyptus lavender and citrus for the most spa-like smell. If you buy them all you can dump them together then back into their bottles and distribute.... One in the laundry hamper, one in the shower, one in the kitchen.
I'm so glad you found great jeans! It's the hardest thing to fit isn't it? Jeans. Bras. Shoes. Jesus help us. I'm a parti time nudist and so glad I work from home! I have found that the most success I had with clothes was finding a uniform and buying identical items in different colors, mostly black and charcoal and then I can mix and match everything. Grab from piles 1 2 3 and dress in the damn dark...I know that is no fun for a younger person but it keeps decision fatigue at bay. I wonder if you struggle with second guessing yourself? Dressing simple really helps me with that.
So anyway next chance you get look up a song called Coyote by Mark Knopfler and dance with yourself in the mirror. I just found it today and I have listened to it about 10 times because it's just that good. The whole album is good...ragpickers dream! Bless you ya filthy animal.
Thanks for your channel. I am a 30 something in London UK. I definitely share some of your feelings in your Vlog. I love sex and the city. Much like sex and city living is not real life, London is not Made in Chelsea. Thanks again
As someone planning to move to NYC in the next few years, your channel is extremely helpful! What kind of job do you have? I’m sorry if this question has been answered, I’m new to the channel lol!
I definitely do that! I set my alarm for 4:30am but I snooze it until my 5:00am one and still I lay there for 10 minutes and convince myself I can get ready quick enough 🤣
Love your channel! love you! you make me smile every time and I am grateful to have found you channel! I live in the Bronx so whatzzz upppp neighbor hahahah ...okay that was cheezy ok . bye
Hey Chelsea, wanted to compliment the outfit you had on with the beige jacket, brown shirt and black pants. You looked amazing!! I like the fit of those black pants much better than the 90 dollar jeans. Hope that helps and thank you for your transparency.
I'm 26 and I can totally relate! I have zero motivation. And my snooze button can testify to that.
Btw, out of nowhere but I really like your bag! 😅
"Naked and afraid" in NY City jungle, thats the show...
The truth is we are all not truly living, just surviving.
Your channel is so refreshing and comforting. I love watching your videos, even though you might feel like it’s not that entertaining because there’s no outdoor footage etc. xx
I just found your channel. You're very cute, and energetic. But, I would never actually live in NYC. Its just way too expensive. Is it really worth it to live there?
Hello, Thanks for sharing the video. I’m new subscriber of you yours I hope you are doing well.
Really liked this vlog…. And last week’s too!!!! STAY IN NYC AND LIVE!!!! Live as YOU want to!!!! I love the outside the typical box thinking and beating to your own drum. You are experiencing your life every day!!!!! I’m a 50 something person who lived as I wanted to, doing what I wanted to and I am happy!!!!! Keep at it, keep vlogging, and we will watch it! I don’t want to live in NYC but I like experiencing it through what you share!!!
love this ❤️
There should be like a designated whisper part in every video, so maybe we can have an asmr whisper compilation later. Your whisper voice is so soft 😴.
Ur so lovable.. but lets take in account Chelsea lives in one of the most expensive neighborhoods of nyc. Where u could find a studio anywhere
Totally off subject, but what who makes that cool shirt you are wearing with people all over while you eat Pad Woon Sen?
Hey Chelsea! Just wondering what you film with, I just started a channel and i dont think my iphone is going to cut it lmao. Thanks!
Shouting “keep the jeans girl!” At the tv … they look good! A&F jeans slap right now x
I'm new ad I love your video ❤. Greeting from Italy ( If u want I can teach u how to pronouce Gigli 😂)
Love your videos. I've been bingeing on them recently. I was wondering if you ever plan to adopt another pet.
I would love to once I can move into a pet friendly building!
@@ChelseaCallahan Oh, that's great! Sending much love and good vibes your way.
I am from Thailand , Do you like Thailand ? Welcome to Bangkok Thailand
Te amo 💗💗💗
So many TH-camr are starting to bored me .
They aren’t relatable… everything is sponsored and fake !
I love how raw you are and you let’s us inside your 9-5 typical day.
That’s what I want to see
THIS!!!!!! ❤❤❤
I agree 100 percent!!
I honestly enjoy your transparent videos Chelsea,big huugg.
If you were a guy, the answer to “what do I eat if I’m lazy” is cereal. If you have cereal, you have a meal.
I'm just here for the pickle content. but also love your vidz :)
I am every old/bad thing in your fridge. I'm 34 and I feel pooped already. 😐
$90 for a pair of jeans that fit u perfectly is a great deal….so yeah!! You did great…
I’m the same just now, have totally fell out of love with life but know that is should be grateful to be healthy
I sometimes set my clock super early to see if I can do it and I do just to realize I have nothing to do and go back to bed lol
I plan on moving from Dallas to NYC next year and your videos are the most genuine and honest vids about living in NYC. Thank you!
I totally get this, but then I remember how much you make and I'm like...! I both love and despise routine. I hate having annoying daily tasks but have to be grateful for my salary and virtual work. I'm curious to know how you shift from wanting a life in acting, to being admin...do you have other things you do to reconcile this dichotomy?
wait did I post my salary somewhere? I may have left it in a comment on a video I can't remember 😂 my career has been fluid, while all paths have been very different, the skillsets compliment each other. But ultimately I just do what I gotta do to make a living
@@ChelseaCallahan Yes i think you mentioned it in your 'what it costs to live in NY' or some such video. You broke down how you spend your money.
@@fremont111 oh yes! I don’t remember discussing my salary only my expenses. Thanks for letting me know :)
Every day i wake up and im in pain. Thank you for normolizing that.
Hi Chelsea-- I have binge-watched all of your videos. Love the content, that you are so real, and that you are doing so well in NYC. I lived in NYC for 17 years, as a single woman, I didn't have children, and I had an amazing time in that city-- dating, being surrounded by incredible culture, and so much more. Obviously, it wasn't always easy. But it taught me to be strong-- and gave me an inner strength that you can only learn and get from living in a city like that. And people will envy that strength and no one will ever be able to take that away from you. Congratulations on your amazing journey!! I am so happy for you that your channel is taking off. This is important content-- keep doing this important work by showing the world what it means to be a strong independent woman. You are an inspiration!
You are awesome!! Thank you!
Pink socks always give me good luck! the jeans look great!
That squat sound effect had me dying! 😂 I love seeing NYC in the spring through your eyes - thank you so much for sharing!
When I did a 9 - 5 I would set my alarm as close as possible as I could to when I needed to leave and still get everything done. I'm not a snoozer, so I never had that 'I could get up, but what do I do?' until the pandemic hit and I was working from home and suddenly had way more time in the mornings. For me that looked like playing a game like Animal Crossing before work.
These days I naturally wake up at around 6:30 (😭) and start work around 9, so I just do whatever I feel like in those few hours.
Congrats on finding the jeans! As someone who spent months and months finding the right jeans, I am on team 'keep the jeans'
I am SO GLAD I found your channel!¡!!😊
One for the algorithm ❤
you the best
I have never laughed this hard at such relatable content… your bravery shined walking into Abercrombie & Fitch 🤩this millennial virgo with a bad knee and stiff hips loves your content 😆😊 keep it up!
Chelsea you need to apply like crazy and change jobs.
If you need jeans just go thrifting lol. Those jeans have stood the rest of time
Just descovered your channel and I'm so thankful it got recommendet for me.
I don't live in New York City, not even in America...but the topics your talking about and everything you take your viewers along hit pretty close to home. Thank you so much.
Nice to have you back! Hope you're feeling better 🙂
Thanks for the laugh - "this blank stare terrifies me". I work from home and had the realisation that it's how I must look all day, every day!!
The jeans look great, don’t feel bad about the money.
Notification squad! 🎉
Never hit snooze, just get up and moving.
Love the way you captured NYC and your honesty is freshing as well😊
Would love to buy you cup of Cafe Au Lait next time you're in CPS... . You literally passed by my building... nice video and keep up good work!
please never stop doing these vlogs!! sending love xx (from a girl whose absolute dream is to live in nyc)
Working from home have helped me alot and also finding colleagues I feel joy around 😊
Idk if you realize this but you're actually the main character
I see how hard you work on this vlog!! Keep going, I love it!!
I'm just so into the non-pretentious, let's-be-real vibe of someone just living and figuring out life in a big city. Also, I have spent way more time than I'd like to admit trying to figure out who you remind me of. You know those moments of, "Hey, they look like that actor/actress in that one movie!" Except you can't recall the name of the actress and have no idea of the name of the movie. And the longer I think about it the less sure I am that you even look like them. Also, I need a life.
Now, I would’ve eaten the pasta right out of the pot 😆
if I do this on camera I will need you to back me up in the comments ahhaha 😂❤️
It DOES look like an omelette! Love the vlogs!
My sister has also been into Abercrombie lately! When you tried on that pair in the store I was having flashbacks to having the same thigh/waist problem in middle school lol. Glad you found a pair that works!
I LOVE YOU TOOOOOOO
Was it hard finding a good paying job in the city!?
Love your videos. Are you going to post more videos?
A man’s self-aware objectifying perspective: You make those jeans look good! 😲
😂😂😂
@@ChelseaCallahan I reacted to the jeans situation so quickly, I neglected to respond to the rest of the video. After re-watching, I’ll add: 1) Yes, I think every normal person has their wake-up time perfected down to the minute, 2) I’m an expert in eating out of the pot/pan/skillet to keep from having to wash dishes. It’s fine lol, 3) I think it’s pronounced “ZHEE-lee”, and 4) Thank you for another genuinely charming video! 😊
I thought your hair was about to catch on fire doing yoga next to the candle 😅
You are a real person. It's nice to see it on TH-cam.
R people wearing masks at the moment n NY?
loved the POV shots... I miss NY 😅😅
Maybe you have a ghost that used those stairs while you were doing laundry....🤷🏻♂️
I hope not :(((
