My daughter is 20 and 6 feet tall! She’s this lanky graceful creature and she rocks it. I’ve seen her wear 4 inch heels and not bat an eyelash. Love what you have!
I just wanted to say that as an atheist, childfree, career focused woman I was skeptical about clicking on the videos youtube recommended to me. I had heard some criticism in the community about your views and advice. But your channel is the one I've come back to the most ove the past week. You seem so kind and generous and I love how inclusive and non-judgmental you are in your videos. I love learning more about cultivating my feminine qualities and caring for my spouse as a balance to my more masculine and career focused side. Please keep being kind and making videos for all the feminine sisters out there💙
My thoughts exactly! I’m in the same position as you - child free, atheist and an attorney - but wow I love her videos and insights! Definitely a nice balance for us working ladies.
Agree! I'm a PhD-to-be, not religious and not even in a relationship at the moment. But I honestly don't understand where did all this criticism come from. Even if I can't agree with everything she says, doesn't mean I should dismiss her insights completely and straightup judge her! Her lifestyle is not less valuable than a career-driven one.
GLOW UP! Journey 1. How do you treat your self and how do you feel about your femininity (balance) 2. What do you need to change? 3. Be an expert concerning our own beauty recipe. (research) 4. Move the road blocks.(soul and physical) 5. Find the why? (reason for glow-up!) Thank you for the Godly influence sis.
I was quite surprised!! Didn't think a non-black woman would take some time to educate herself about the hairstyles of black women for a video like this. Really shows that she cares for and is aware of all the different subscribers she has. She earned a new subbie today!❤❤
Im not suprised at all. Awhile back she did a video about feminine beauty. It was the most inclusive video on beauty I've ever seen. It had photos of black women with natural hair, muslim women in hijab, older women, and i think maybe even disabled women. It was a great video. She seems to be inclusive all around. Atheists a d those in non agreement tend to gather here, which speaks volumes in my opinion. She is my favorite femininity voice.
This is awesome. I'm vlogging my glow up and dont know where to start. Notes: 1. Embrace your unique features 2. Lean into your ancestry 3. Dont be a bland version, create a unique beauty recipe of what you are. 5. Boast everything that makes you naturally different and uniquely beautiful. 6. Know what you can change and cant 7. Learn your color season 8. Figure out your budget and time spent on your glow up 9. Analyze your current mental state. Why are you doing the things you do that dont serve you.
I am so impressed when reading the comment section to see how positive and uplifting this community is ... Caitlin your kindness and heartfulness simply attracts like-minded individuals. I am grateful for your videos ... I love uuuu
Salomé Boden Awh yes! What a true statement. So many people here are respectful, encouraging, and engaging!! Even those who disagree tend to fit in. Love our feminine family so much 😌😩😍
As a guy I absolutely love your videos! You give me encouragement to be a masculine man and hope that there's a woman out there for me who embodies true femininity thank you very much!
Chris Frederic thank you for being here! Yes traditional values and femininity are still alive and well in this world. Our comment section is bursting with it! 😍
@@krazyoldkatlady192 good question there are many aspects to masculinity. The first one that comes to my mind is meekness. Jesus said blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth. I make person is someone who has a sword but is determined to keep it sheathed. Basically a philosophy of minimum necessary Force. Being to me a masculine man most importantly is being able to absolutely destroy a City. But also having the Precision and gentleness to correct someone such as a child without in any way harming them. There are lots of other aspects but that's the main one.
@@krazyoldkatlady192 I don't really feel encouragement is necessary to embody positive traits. At the same time I think it's important to encourage one another in the pursuit of positive traits.
I’m slightly convinced that you truly are a magical Disney princess at this point because this video is exactly what I need right now! I’m currently very down on myself both physically and emotionally and this video has reminded and re-inspired me to do something about it. I love the fact that you focus on manageable changes and the fact that the only person who can really make a difference for us is ourselves! Thank you Mrs. Caitlin, you’ve had such a wonderful impact on my year so far. I look forward to using your advice in my future 💕🌻
This may be a long shot, but please try make a video relating to remaining graceful, supportive and feminine in a relationship during a partners depressive episodes. Ps love your videos!
If she hasn't dealt with this she wouldn't be able to know how to. With that being said, if she has experienced this then she could probably make an amazing video on it.
I’m in university and last year I really didn’t care much about how I looked. But after coming across your channel a few months ago I’ve made a few small changes and have started to feel much more confident and happy, so thank you very much from Scotland! ❤️
Isn’t it crazy how much it can help!? I didn’t realize how amazing I could feel and it truly helped my life too. So happy you’re here, and sending you love back to Scotland 😊🥰
@@indigosanderson1456 It doesn't get too cold here, even in the highlands, so just layers and drinking hot tea, coffee and soups helps with that. But it can be very wet, so even, if it looks like a dry day, keep an umbrella or water proof coat on hand. Hope this helps and hope you have a loveley winter here!
Have you thought of writing your own book? You have so much knowledge you could share with our community & I can see so many people benefiting from it, including myself. Much love for you.
I'm not the biggest fan of mine, but I'm about to start putting more time and effort into myself and accepting myself (but that'll be difficult because I have two, 2 and under)!
Hello from Australia! Been following you for a couple of months now. And i absolutely adore your content, it has changed my life in a BIG way. As a young woman with Dutch grandparents this would be an awesome video idea.
you hit the nail on the head for me in this video “looking at health gurus and feeling jealous and angry” is totally me right now. I’m slowly realizing that the power lies with me and instead of watching these fitness gurus and feeling bad I am taking charge! i am a control freak as well and everything you were saying really resonated with me here. thank you for being such a down to earth person, you’re such an encouragement.
So glad you brought our ancestry into this! I think it's such a shame that everyone seems to be striving for the same type of face nowadays. Like no, I have small lips, a huge masculine "character" nose and hooded eyes - that's my identity and I'm proud of it!
"I'm a very specific apple strudel with cinnamon and this one specific type of frosting that you can only get in Germany!" Hahaha She is so freakin adorable!
I love this! However, I wouldn’t totally throw plastic surgery out the window. I actually had a breast reduction. I went from a 32DD to a 32B. Before, it was very difficult to find affordable bras in my size and it looked SO wrong with the rest of my body, not to mention I had back pain. (I’m 5’2 and only 100 pounds) i can honestly say getting a reduction is one of the best decisions I ever made. Even my family and husband agrees. I can finally get affordable bras, i don’t have to get size medium to large shirts, now I get size small shirts, and it’s seriously boosted my confidence. I also used to get cat called and whistled at and now that has stopped which is a HUGE relief. So I agree to focus on things you can change, but some things (where surgery is involved) can be helpful.
Gloria Martin So glad about that change for you! I think the sentiments for plastic surgery are more of finding something wrong with your features and thinking you’ll be happy if this one thing looks different vs a surgery with practical application too! Plastic surgery can definitely be useful sometimes. 😊
Lemony Catapult it is cosmetic. I didn’t need to have it done. My insurance wouldn’t even cover it because it wasn’t medically necessary. I paid out of pocket and I’m very happy with it. :)
Lemony Catapult I understand what you’re saying. But I also think if getting a new nose or something makes someone happy, then why not? I’m not saying that if you have self esteem issues then plastic surgery is the answer. I’m saying that if you’ve done your research and really want to have it done, without thinking it will make you happier (because that comes from within), then go for it. We shouldn’t judge others for the decisions they choose to make. The main motivation of me getting a breast reduction was because I wanted smaller boobs to go with my small frame. 🤷🏻♀️ Who are we to say what is wrong and what is right? Let people live and be happy. 🤷🏻♀️
I use to feel the same about my chest, I was envious of girls who could buy cute bras while I had to pick plain, neutral colors. I also hated that it was the first thing guys noticed about me but as I grew up I learned to be grateful for the body God gave me because I meet so many women who want a larger chest & are willing to get surgery just to have one. I pray every person is able to love the body they're born with ❤
Loved the video. I love that you don’t focus on needing all these expensive products/services to look your best. As a sahm I just don’t have the money to get products/manicures/ etc. It’s encouraging to know we can still look our best without that!
You posted this just in time! 2020 is my glow up year ✨ My baby girl will be here late January, and I want to be a good example to her! And my husband deserves a wife that is confident in herself and puts the time and energy into making herself better. I’m doing it for me, but I’m also doing it for the overall good of my family 🥰
Thank you, Caitlyn, for including your faith in this "glow up" process. There is a lot of misunderstanding around "selfcare" in the Christian female community. My fear is that it's imposing guilt/shame on women for attending to their appearance; the message being that it's shallow & self-worship. I agree with you 100% about our bodies being a temple (for the Holy Spirit). Of course, our internal beauty matters SO MUCH more than our external beauty. But, as someone who has dealt with depression/anxiety, sometimes behaviours lead to internal change & growth. Exercising, taking care of your hair & skin etc can slowly change your internal negative script and help us know we are already loved by God. For some, it's working on the internal first, or both at the same time. 🌸🌸🌸
The being overly emotional was exactly me and I still struggle with it sometimes! If I criticize myself or my boyfriend mentions something I immediately go to “I’m a HORRIBLE person, I’m lazy, I’m mean and selfish.” My boyfriend would always tell me I’m acting childish when this would happen! It’s so hard to pick yourself up and deal with the truth but it is SO important. Thanks for the video Caitlin!!
I've been trying to start my glow up for a while now and have just kept turning up with no luck and feeling even frumpier than where I started. I feel that my main problem is like where you said "find a way to keep on going on your journey even when you don't want to in the morning". That was a powerful statement and it really made me look inward at my true issues!
I was so glad to see a sequel or addendum to the first “Glow Up”, especially focusing on the psychological and internal aspects of character that are the root of external glow ups as well. Thank you for this, as always just on point clever and eloquently presented information. Love you Caitlin! I love that part where you identify the problem constructively to try and find a solution rather than sit in your negative emotions. This is where the Serenity Prayer is so beautiful and poignant to re-align and balance our mindset. The prayer is like a poem and universal regardless of faith.
Alexandra Golovenko I love this comment! Yes I felt like I needed to explain more because it was NOT a simple transformation. Mental work is really important and it can be difficult to manage emotions and expectations. ☺️❤️
I'm a tiny petite woman and I hate it!!! We definitely just need to learn how to be happy with our bodies and understand that we all have insecurities. I love you Mrs. Midwest thank you for being a role model.
I didn't expect to like this video ... I couldn't have been more wrong. I am so impressed by the focus on balance, heart, mind, embracing unique features and ethnicity, being realistic and logical/rational, exploring where your ideas about beauty and your regimen (or lack thereof) come from, and how to adjust them to better serve yourself, others, and God, if that's part of your world view. Thank you for your courage and generosity in putting yourself out there to share this very helpful, intelligent, and kindhearted video. I re-watched it to take notes so I could better absorb the wisdom and use it to go on my own glow up journey. xo
13:00-18:00 has some of the greatest advice! “Why are you doing things that aren’t serving you?” A great question I’m going to pray about. Thank you so much Caitlin!
I honestly love your channel and I can’t stop binge watching your videos. You’re exactly what I needed in my life to reboot from depression and breakdowns ♥️ Sending love ❤️
You are so inspiring! For so many years I convinced myself that I was being a "good Christian" by not looking in the mirror or spending any time on myself in terms of looks, etc. I'm slowly learning that I need to be better balanced. Doing literally nothing for my looks, health, current place in life isn't healthy and spending hours and hours every day wouldn't be either. This is the gentle nudge I need that it's okay to Glow Up. That by taking a little GU time I can be the light I need to be without being so self conscious or even hiding due to my presence. Thank you!
I’ve been on a glow up since August. It’s an uphill battle, because I’ve gotten so use to accepting mediocre food, hair, my body, and relationships. First it was the relationship part, but then it was my body...accepting where I was, but that I can and am worthy of change. Then it was my hair. I had 3 years worth of grey/platinum hair grown out. I went for the chop girl. Shortest hair of my life, but...I’m growing out my natural hair now 🥰 with a few face framing highlights leftover. Also, I’ve been cutting back on my food and working out..eating healthier (most of the time). But yeah I had to really be more disciplined about where I wanted to be with my best self.
Making changes for love, love of oneself especially, is the only way to make lasting change. Changes from fear or losing something or from spite will always be short lived. I know because each time I try to change, lose weight, etc. the motivation fades. I still don’t fully love myself but I’m getting closer, and the closer I get the more I can care for my body. I’m glad you put so much emphasis on the mental aspect of a glow up because it’s true. If your minds not right there’s no change you can make that will be sustainable long term. You are truly beautiful, the kind of beauty that comes from the root and from going through the difficulties of cleansing ones soul, and those who wish to stamp you out seek to destroy what they don’t understand, one of those things being pure love and beauty.
I like that you are so relatable and down to earth, and so different from all those other youtubers who pretend that their life is perfect and all vegan and so healthy. And they buy all those expensive things. Ther pretend their lives are perfect. You even thrift which makes you the best 😍. And you look absolutely gorgeous and I loveee your home and all the decoration and your vintage style ❤❤❤
I love being 5’8”. And I think older women especially really stand out when taller, they don’t blend in when everyone starts to look more similar in older age hehe. You have some women’s dream body :)
@Pinkiepinkie S she spoke about what she considered her flaws. To her they were real. If you don't agree that's fine but don't be condescending because she is/meets your standard of beauty
You are such an inspiration! This is the best glow up video ever. I’ve been so absolutely miserable and self-loathing after a traumatic experience this year that I get up and shower once, maybe twice per week. Now, I actually feel hopeful for the first time in awhile after watching this. Thank you for the honesty, positivity, and practical advice on glowing up from the inside out. A lot of videos like this preach self-love but promote the typical Kylie Jenner beauty standard, but you’re completely different in that you explain how to practice self-love in a way that is beneficial to both health and beauty, as well as honors the God-given beauty in each and everyone of us. Thank you! Love, an enthusiastic new subscriber
You know, this can go for men to. My husband used to be self conscious about his body and face, and it affected his self confidence a lot. His roadblocks are still there for him but it's not as bad as it used to be.
Hey, you mentioned that you also read a lot of books. What kind of books? Could you make a video about your favorite self improvement/femininity books. thank you :)
Yes please!! I recently read "what makes us girls" by brittany pettibone - I don't really know about her polticial beliefs so i don't stand by them I just know shes controversial lol- and it was a great read!! It's very much so about crafting a positive view of femininity and protecting it.
Your Glow Up advice is the only one I’ve seen that not just focuses on the exterior veneer, but beauty shining through from within. There is nothing more striking than inner confidence and security. Love your positivity and wisdom!
I'm so so so thankful for your videos. I'm going to turn 20 soon, and I've decided that it's the perfect time for me to grow and glow. Thanks to you I can learn how to do that. I've always been really insecure and too scared of people's reactions to change things about my appearance and behaviour, but now I see that I need to do whatever feels right to me so I can live my best life and become the best version of myself. Thank you so much for all the positive energy and advice you give ♡
Nowdays we more than ever tending to have globally the same standards of beauty and trends, and the way we should look, but at the same time, there is people who embrassing they own kind of beauty more than ever. But I agree with you. The beauty have so many faces, and we all should enjoy,embrasse and really show our uniquenes.
Love this! Just graduated & I'm taking a gap year to loose weight cause it's holding me back from my full potential. I know God has great plans for my future but first I need to deal with this issue that I've been struggling with since I was in middle school. DOING. IT. FOR. MYSELF. ONLY. 🧡
Mrs. Midwest, I just want to say that I absolutely love you! It's clear that you do your research and take great care of making sure you give your viewers information that will help them no matter who they are. Thank you!
I so appreciate you mentioning disability. I have a chronic illness which has meant that energy has been a premium, and now I’m looking into a glow up to get back out into the world again 👍👍
As a black woman, I absolutely adore the fact that you are educated on black hair types! You are so inclusive when its comes to topics of beauty and femininity, which is amazing because there is a great variety of ethnic individuals who are also interested in these topics. I love the fact that you are Christian because your love for all of God's creation shows through your equal and inclusive advice. Keep up the amazing work! Your channel is very unique but one that is very needed for women like me who have felt left out by the mainstream culture
I’m so happy you mention the religious side by saying “for my Christians” not trying to push your religious views on everyone understanding all women come from different cultures and religions💗💗
I appreciate you so much! I am getting married soon and I am in need of a glow up- it will not only positively impact me but my future husband as well! Thanks for the wisdom❤️
Hold up! Wait a minute!! ✋🏾 This is my first time on your channel and what I have to say is- Ma’am you DID THAT with this video! Okay?! Enjoyed this MUCH and I heard that 4c love you gave! Just a wonderful video for all women who want to Glow Up! Bravo 👏🏾
I love this. Caring for what you have is so important. It's like that saying that goes “the grass is not always greener on the other side”. When you water your own grass, literally and figuratively, it becomes better naturally." Love you all ❤️
Love this! I’m starting my glow up journey and a huge part has been microblading my eyebrows. (I had over-plucked 90s eyebrows!) I feel so much better about my face and it saves me a ton of time on my makeup routine. Another thing I’ve done is decreasing my acne with Keto and intermittent fasting. This definitely hasn’t been an overnight transformation but I’m slowly getting to where I want to be! Btw, thank you for being so inspirational and encouraging!
This really helped me to accept and admit that I had not been doing things in my beauty routine that really serve me. I've been bleaching my hair( due to jealousy or my mother and my siblings all having red or blonde hair and I have a little more of the darker hair color), but instead of wearing black and bleaching my hair, I am now going toward the warm colors that accentuate my auburn strands and I'm doing the no poo method thanks to you. I love the biblical values you employ in your life like taking care of your hair and living in a way that is honoring to the lord like you said. Definitely needed to hear this. Thank you.
You are beautiful and a lovely person. Honestly you’ve inspired me and even helped me in my eating disorder recovery to realise that beauty isn’t just weighing less. That I have to be emaciated to be beautiful. Please ignore any bad things other people are saying.
I came from Jaclyn’s channel... she got you all wrong ! I feel bad! I just want you to know you have a new subscriber and A LOT of people are supporting you in her comment section! 😊
I know a lot of people might think this is extreme but I have a very gummy smile and I was honestly looking at surgery when I found out that you can use botox to relax the upper lip. Now my gums barely show when I smile and laugh! That helped so much because I wasn't self conscious over being happy.
Even though I am watching this late (I saved it to watch later, 27 y.o. mom of a little one here!), this is exactly what I needed right now and I have been doing my own soul-searching glow-up lately. Thank you for the spiritual as well as emotional encouragement rather than just a shallow tutorial. That, I think, is the best thing about your channel. Practical advice, but if there is no heart behind it, you don't do it! So thanks!
I really like watching your videos because I finally feel like I’ve found a youtuber I can relate to! Not only because I’m also 5’8 with a larger chest(😄) and you’re great fashion inspo in that sense, but I’m also a traditional, christian girl with alot of emotions and it’s so nice to know that those qualities shouldn’t be downplayed just because society tells me to. Really long comment but basically what I’m trying to say is I’m glad I found your channel and thank you for spreading love and kindness 😊
Aww you're a Believer, woo-hoo! I'm also a five-eight and buxom lady but always looked at both of those things as great attributes of mine when it is hard to think of something lol...great advice to not ruminate on shortcomings...be solution centered!
I absolutely love your videos! You are like a big sister and you have such great advice and wisdom. I also really appreciate the fact that you acknowledge the beauty of women of all ethnicities/backgrounds. As one of the only asian girls in my town growing up, I felt so unattractive and it took me a long time to accept myself as I am.
Thank you so much for this video. I have been struggling mentally since 2018 but this year it got worst. Anxiety attacks, panic attacks, crying everyday. I look a hot mess. I have become insecure and I have let myself go not only mentally but physically. This video helped me so much. Thank you..I know God has me and is helping me through such a dark time. God bless you! You’re a beauty!
If you love and make peace with what you see in the mirror; everything begins to change. Loving who you are on the inside changes everything on the outside. Speak life to yourself. Praise the Lord my beautiful sister. Such a nice delivery. Love from Los Angeles. Enjoy being with your husband !! 🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🙏
I am surprised, this is full of advice that isn't mainstream and only focus on outer appereance. I'm so happy I found this channel. I am extremely insecure about myself. I struggle with low self-esteem and anxiety. Now I'm 20, I really felt like I need to change my ways. You are my role model Mrs. Midwest. Thank you for making this video🤗
I’m getting married in feb 2021! So my glow up year will be next year, it’s also my last year of living with my family so I have the time to focus on myself a bit! Looking forward to it :)
I watched your other “glow up” video, but this one was even better. The “why” behind improving our aesthetic is so important, especially when I have always struggled with self worth. It’s easy to discourage myself because I’m being “vain” or “insecure.” No! There is nothing wrong with caring for our bodies!!! Like you said, it affects everyone around us positively and our own mental health so much! God made our bodies- they are temporal, yes, but not to be looked down upon. We are made in the image of God! Sending out love to anyone who thinks they don’t deserve to put effort into their appearance or that it’s wrong to care about how we look. Like you said, it’s all about balance.
Thank you for sharing these words of wisdom, especially on the practical level. It's a message many of ladies need to hear to accept what we cannot change and improve the things that we do have a little more control over.
My Malay ancestry game is strong - I have a flat and rounded nose, thick lips, thick eyebrows and big eyes. My fisherman grandfather, who was originally one of the few natives in old Singapore, would be proud of me 😤😂
My glow up as a 42 year old with greying hair means blonde highlights to blend, I wax underarms and lower legs, pedicures and gel nails. I pay for all these services because I work and I have to look nice and because I clean all the time my nails get beat up. Also, waxing is super affordable and I’m hoping to avoid hair in my old age.... im getting a chest reduction on a few weeks as my back is pretty bad. I do love long daily hikes and walks !
Great video as usual :). It took me awhile to love my kinky dreadlocks but like you said I just had to work with ( I started doing cute feminine styles to make them stand out) Ever since I started to embrace my femininity I started getting complaints on EVERYTHING ( including my dreadlocks). You have made such a big difference in my life. You are truly a blessing!

I just wanted to say that as an atheist, childfree, career focused woman I was skeptical about clicking on the videos youtube recommended to me.

GLOW UP! Journey
1. How do you treat your self and how do you feel about your femininity (balance)
2. What do you need to change?
3. Be an expert concerning our own beauty recipe. (research)
4. Move the road blocks.(soul and physical)
5. Find the why? (reason for glow-up!)
Thank you for the Godly influence sis.
Thank u i hate lots of explaination
Thank you 💖 !
Thanks. My listening english is not good enough 😅
You know what 4C hair is!!!
I somehow did not anticipate that... +1 like for rounded knowledge 🙂 love your channel!!!
I was quite surprised!! Didn't think a non-black woman would take some time to educate herself about the hairstyles of black women for a video like this. Really shows that she cares for and is aware of all the different subscribers she has. She earned a new subbie today!❤❤
Im not suprised at all. Awhile back she did a video about feminine beauty. It was the most inclusive video on beauty I've ever seen. It had photos of black women with natural hair, muslim women in hijab, older women, and i think maybe even disabled women. It was a great video. She seems to be inclusive all around. Atheists a d those in non agreement tend to gather here, which speaks volumes in my opinion. She is my favorite femininity voice.
Oh yes, she does! Do not underestimate our Mrs. Midwest she is a knowledgeable diverse understanding open-minded queen 👑
I felt the same! I was shocked and it made me so happy!
I’m a beauty stalker 🤣🤣 I just love learning about other women’s beauty experiences! ☺️ It’s so important to not have a narrow vision of femininity 💓
My wish for 2020 is learning to have a better relationship with my body. To appreciate the way God has designed me.
Beautiful wish.
I share that one :)
best wishes to you! based on you profil pic you are truly stunning
Well said!
Space for the Soul We can do this. c:
Dóra Lili Kovács Thank you so much, and you’re beautiful.
This is awesome. I'm vlogging my glow up and dont know where to start.
Notes:
1. Embrace your unique features
2. Lean into your ancestry
3. Dont be a bland version, create a unique beauty recipe of what you are.
5. Boast everything that makes you naturally different and uniquely beautiful.
6. Know what you can change and cant
7. Learn your color season
8. Figure out your budget and time spent on your glow up
9. Analyze your current mental state. Why are you doing the things you do that dont serve you.
👍
💛💛💛
Thank you KRENA
I am so impressed when reading the comment section to see how positive and uplifting this community is ... Caitlin your kindness and heartfulness simply attracts like-minded individuals. I am grateful for your videos ... I love uuuu
Salomé Boden Awh yes! What a true statement. So many people here are respectful, encouraging, and engaging!! Even those who disagree tend to fit in. Love our feminine family so much 😌😩😍
As a guy I absolutely love your videos! You give me encouragement to be a masculine man and hope that there's a woman out there for me who embodies true femininity thank you very much!
Chris Frederic thank you for being here! Yes traditional values and femininity are still alive and well in this world. Our comment section is bursting with it! 😍
Chris Frederic what does being a masculine man mean for you?
@@krazyoldkatlady192 good question there are many aspects to masculinity. The first one that comes to my mind is meekness. Jesus said blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth. I make person is someone who has a sword but is determined to keep it sheathed. Basically a philosophy of minimum necessary Force. Being to me a masculine man most importantly is being able to absolutely destroy a City. But also having the Precision and gentleness to correct someone such as a child without in any way harming them. There are lots of other aspects but that's the main one.
Chris Frederic okay so why do you feel that you need encouragement to have these good qualities?
@@krazyoldkatlady192 I don't really feel encouragement is necessary to embody positive traits. At the same time I think it's important to encourage one another in the pursuit of positive traits.
The 4c hair comment really warmed my heart! No one really mentions us just more reasons to love you🤍🤍🤍
I’m slightly convinced that you truly are a magical Disney princess at this point because this video is exactly what I need right now! I’m currently very down on myself both physically and emotionally and this video has reminded and re-inspired me to do something about it.
I love the fact that you focus on manageable changes and the fact that the only person who can really make a difference for us is ourselves! Thank you Mrs. Caitlin, you’ve had such a wonderful impact on my year so far. I look forward to using your advice in my future 💕🌻
Yes couldn't agree more! and she's sooo wise!!!
Plus 8:41 she's literal magic. I still don't understand what happened there.
This may be a long shot, but please try make a video relating to remaining graceful, supportive and feminine in a relationship during a partners depressive episodes. Ps love your videos!
Yes please!
If she hasn't dealt with this she wouldn't be able to know how to. With that being said, if she has experienced this then she could probably make an amazing video on it.
This is a really good idea, and a topic I think she may be able to cover with or without direct experience
Please!!
Yeah please
I’m in university and last year I really didn’t care much about how I looked. But after coming across your channel a few months ago I’ve made a few small changes and have started to feel much more confident and happy, so thank you very much from Scotland! ❤️
Me too
Isn’t it crazy how much it can help!? I didn’t realize how amazing I could feel and it truly helped my life too. So happy you’re here, and sending you love back to Scotland 😊🥰
Any tips on surviving my first Scottish winter?
@@indigosanderson1456 It doesn't get too cold here, even in the highlands, so just layers and drinking hot tea, coffee and soups helps with that. But it can be very wet, so even, if it looks like a dry day, keep an umbrella or water proof coat on hand. Hope this helps and hope you have a loveley winter here!
Have you thought of writing your own book? You have so much knowledge you could share with our community & I can see so many people benefiting from it, including myself. Much love for you.
My wish for 2020 is that people start accepting their eyebrows tbh
Omg the realest thought ever ftw
ok so it's not just me who thinks this way
🤣🤣🤣
hahaha
I'm not the biggest fan of mine, but I'm about to start putting more time and effort into myself and accepting myself (but that'll be difficult because I have two, 2 and under)!
I love how you are so kind! You also show the world of traditionalism and femininity without mixing it with political agendas! Thanks for this video!
Would love to see a video on your Dutch heritage and what traditions you love! 💖
Yeees
Yeeeees ! As she seems to value her heritage
is she Dutch and Australian? Her insta says USaus
Hello from Australia! Been following you for a couple of months now. And i absolutely adore your content, it has changed my life in a BIG way. As a young woman with Dutch grandparents this would be an awesome video idea.
“I wish I was a tiny little 5’5” girl” had me, 5’1”, absolutely CACKLING I love you 😂
Nikki Smith right, lol 5 feet and I've always wanted to be taller
I am 4'9 ...lolsss...😁
5'5'' is also considered above average in some places ..like where I live. Lol😄😆
I like being 5'2" aside from the fact that no one takes me seriously and assumes I'm a teenager 🙄 can anyone relate?
Danielle Quiggins yes omw
My girl said 4c! LOVE YOUU
you hit the nail on the head for me in this video “looking at health gurus and feeling jealous and angry” is totally me right now. I’m slowly realizing that the power lies with me and instead of watching these fitness gurus and feeling bad I am taking charge! i am a control freak as well and everything you were saying really resonated with me here. thank you for being such a down to earth person, you’re such an encouragement.
I had to rewind to make sure I heard you right when you said 4c hair, lolol. Thank you for including that! ❤
yanarlee yes yes yesssss!!!! OH MRS. MIDWEST KNOWS
Lmfao so happy there are other black women watching this, heyyyyy :) xx
Right!!
Me too!!
So glad you brought our ancestry into this! I think it's such a shame that everyone seems to be striving for the same type of face nowadays. Like no, I have small lips, a huge masculine "character" nose and hooded eyes - that's my identity and I'm proud of it!
"I'm a very specific apple strudel with cinnamon and this one specific type of frosting that you can only get in Germany!" Hahaha She is so freakin adorable!
I love this! However, I wouldn’t totally throw plastic surgery out the window. I actually had a breast reduction. I went from a 32DD to a 32B. Before, it was very difficult to find affordable bras in my size and it looked SO wrong with the rest of my body, not to mention I had back pain. (I’m 5’2 and only 100 pounds) i can honestly say getting a reduction is one of the best decisions I ever made. Even my family and husband agrees. I can finally get affordable bras, i don’t have to get size medium to large shirts, now I get size small shirts, and it’s seriously boosted my confidence. I also used to get cat called and whistled at and now that has stopped which is a HUGE relief. So I agree to focus on things you can change, but some things (where surgery is involved) can be helpful.
Gloria Martin So glad about that change for you! I think the sentiments for plastic surgery are more of finding something wrong with your features and thinking you’ll be happy if this one thing looks different vs a surgery with practical application too! Plastic surgery can definitely be useful sometimes. 😊
That’s a medical surgery, it’s not cosmetic.
Lemony Catapult it is cosmetic. I didn’t need to have it done. My insurance wouldn’t even cover it because it wasn’t medically necessary. I paid out of pocket and I’m very happy with it. :)
Gloria Martin But it was also an issue of comfort, very different than someone bringing in a picture of Kylie Jenner and saying “give me her nose”.
Lemony Catapult I understand what you’re saying. But I also think if getting a new nose or something makes someone happy, then why not? I’m not saying that if you have self esteem issues then plastic surgery is the answer. I’m saying that if you’ve done your research and really want to have it done, without thinking it will make you happier (because that comes from within), then go for it. We shouldn’t judge others for the decisions they choose to make. The main motivation of me getting a breast reduction was because I wanted smaller boobs to go with my small frame. 🤷🏻♀️ Who are we to say what is wrong and what is right? Let people live and be happy. 🤷🏻♀️
I'm an atheist with a phD just now getting into dating and focusing on myself. I honestly love all your content.
I use to feel the same about my chest, I was envious of girls who could buy cute bras while I had to pick plain, neutral colors. I also hated that it was the first thing guys noticed about me but as I grew up I learned to be grateful for the body God gave me because I meet so many women who want a larger chest & are willing to get surgery just to have one. I pray every person is able to love the body they're born with ❤
And let's not forget about being oversexualised by men and some women. Big chest is no fun
Loved the video. I love that you don’t focus on needing all these expensive products/services to look your best. As a sahm I just don’t have the money to get products/manicures/ etc. It’s encouraging to know we can still look our best without that!
You posted this just in time! 2020 is my glow up year ✨ My baby girl will be here late January, and I want to be a good example to her! And my husband deserves a wife that is confident in herself and puts the time and energy into making herself better. I’m doing it for me, but I’m also doing it for the overall good of my family 🥰
Chloe King go for it baby
Thank you, Caitlyn, for including your faith in this "glow up" process. There is a lot of misunderstanding around "selfcare" in the Christian female community. My fear is that it's imposing guilt/shame on women for attending to their appearance; the message being that it's shallow & self-worship. I agree with you 100% about our bodies being a temple (for the Holy Spirit). Of course, our internal beauty matters SO MUCH more than our external beauty. But, as someone who has dealt with depression/anxiety, sometimes behaviours lead to internal change & growth. Exercising, taking care of your hair & skin etc can slowly change your internal negative script and help us know we are already loved by God. For some, it's working on the internal first, or both at the same time. 🌸🌸🌸
journeyoffaithhopenlove we gotta look cute for Jesus
The being overly emotional was exactly me and I still struggle with it sometimes! If I criticize myself or my boyfriend mentions something I immediately go to “I’m a HORRIBLE person, I’m lazy, I’m mean and selfish.” My boyfriend would always tell me I’m acting childish when this would happen! It’s so hard to pick yourself up and deal with the truth but it is SO important. Thanks for the video Caitlin!!
I've been trying to start my glow up for a while now and have just kept turning up with no luck and feeling even frumpier than where I started. I feel that my main problem is like where you said "find a way to keep on going on your journey even when you don't want to in the morning". That was a powerful statement and it really made me look inward at my true issues!
I'm going through grate depression...this girl motivates me a lot
...thankyou ma'am ❤
I was so glad to see a sequel or addendum to the first “Glow Up”, especially focusing on the psychological and internal aspects of character that are the root of external glow ups as well. Thank you for this, as always just on point clever and eloquently presented information. Love you Caitlin! I love that part where you identify the problem constructively to try and find a solution rather than sit in your negative emotions. This is where the Serenity Prayer is so beautiful and poignant to re-align and balance our mindset. The prayer is like a poem and universal regardless of faith.
Yes I agree! Such a good video!!
Alexandra Golovenko I love this comment! Yes I felt like I needed to explain more because it was NOT a simple transformation. Mental work is really important and it can be difficult to manage emotions and expectations. ☺️❤️
I love how you focus so much on the actual 'before' of the glow up, and identifying the why. This is REAL advice, thank you so much x
I rewatch these every year in January and re-evaluate myself. They’ve helped so much! Thank you for all your wonderful videos!
The Lord made me petite ☺️ 5'2 with a B cup! With thick eyebrows. I've wished for different not anymore, embracing everything now💓
I'm a tiny petite woman and I hate it!!! We definitely just need to learn how to be happy with our bodies and understand that we all have insecurities. I love you Mrs. Midwest thank you for being a role model.
I loved your persuasion. I’m 42 and so hard on myself and my body, I desperately need a glow up and took everything you said in
I have been feeling low all day ,but seeing your smile made my mood sooo much better . ❤❤❤
😘 felt also tough today and glad to see this and share.
Same
I pray that we all overcome the hardships we are going through ,at the moment. ☺🤗
I didn't expect to like this video ... I couldn't have been more wrong. I am so impressed by the focus on balance, heart, mind, embracing unique features and ethnicity, being realistic and logical/rational, exploring where your ideas about beauty and your regimen (or lack thereof) come from, and how to adjust them to better serve yourself, others, and God, if that's part of your world view. Thank you for your courage and generosity in putting yourself out there to share this very helpful, intelligent, and kindhearted video. I re-watched it to take notes so I could better absorb the wisdom and use it to go on my own glow up journey. xo
13:00-18:00 has some of the greatest advice! “Why are you doing things that aren’t serving you?” A great question I’m going to pray about. Thank you so much Caitlin!
I honestly love your channel and I can’t stop binge watching your videos. You’re exactly what I needed in my life to reboot from depression and breakdowns ♥️
Sending love ❤️
You are so inspiring! For so many years I convinced myself that I was being a "good Christian" by not looking in the mirror or spending any time on myself in terms of looks, etc. I'm slowly learning that I need to be better balanced. Doing literally nothing for my looks, health, current place in life isn't healthy and spending hours and hours every day wouldn't be either. This is the gentle nudge I need that it's okay to Glow Up. That by taking a little GU time I can be the light I need to be without being so self conscious or even hiding due to my presence. Thank you!
I’ve been on a glow up since August. It’s an uphill battle, because I’ve gotten so use to accepting mediocre food, hair, my body, and relationships. First it was the relationship part, but then it was my body...accepting where I was, but that I can and am worthy of change. Then it was my hair. I had 3 years worth of grey/platinum hair grown out. I went for the chop girl. Shortest hair of my life, but...I’m growing out my natural hair now 🥰 with a few face framing highlights leftover. Also, I’ve been cutting back on my food and working out..eating healthier (most of the time). But yeah I had to really be more disciplined about where I wanted to be with my best self.
Making changes for love, love of oneself especially, is the only way to make lasting change. Changes from fear or losing something or from spite will always be short lived. I know because each time I try to change, lose weight, etc. the motivation fades. I still don’t fully love myself but I’m getting closer, and the closer I get the more I can care for my body. I’m glad you put so much emphasis on the mental aspect of a glow up because it’s true. If your minds not right there’s no change you can make that will be sustainable long term. You are truly beautiful, the kind of beauty that comes from the root and from going through the difficulties of cleansing ones soul, and those who wish to stamp you out seek to destroy what they don’t understand, one of those things being pure love and beauty.
I like that you are so relatable and down to earth, and so different from all those other youtubers who pretend that their life is perfect and all vegan and so healthy. And they buy all those expensive things. Ther pretend their lives are perfect. You even thrift which makes you the best 😍. And you look absolutely gorgeous and I loveee your home and all the decoration and your vintage style ❤❤❤
I love being 5’8”. And I think older women especially really stand out when taller, they don’t blend in when everyone starts to look more similar in older age hehe. You have some women’s dream body :)
Courtney Pie me too!! Never been insecure about it.
I want to be taller too
That’s fucking rude. You can enjoy your height without tearing others down.
Pinkiepinkie S seriously such a humble brag if I’ve ever heard one
@Pinkiepinkie S she spoke about what she considered her flaws. To her they were real. If you don't agree that's fine but don't be condescending because she is/meets your standard of beauty
You are such an inspiration! This is the best glow up video ever. I’ve been so absolutely miserable and self-loathing after a traumatic experience this year that I get up and shower once, maybe twice per week. Now, I actually feel hopeful for the first time in awhile after watching this. Thank you for the honesty, positivity, and practical advice on glowing up from the inside out. A lot of videos like this preach self-love but promote the typical Kylie Jenner beauty standard, but you’re completely different in that you explain how to practice self-love in a way that is beneficial to both health and beauty, as well as honors the God-given beauty in each and everyone of us.
Thank you! Love, an enthusiastic new subscriber
You know, this can go for men to. My husband used to be self conscious about his body and face, and it affected his self confidence a lot. His roadblocks are still there for him but it's not as bad as it used to be.
Hey, you mentioned that you also read a lot of books. What kind of books?
Could you make a video about your favorite self improvement/femininity books. thank you :)
Yes please!! I recently read "what makes us girls" by brittany pettibone - I don't really know about her polticial beliefs so i don't stand by them I just know shes controversial lol- and it was a great read!! It's very much so about crafting a positive view of femininity and protecting it.
Yes!!
She recommends "Sex Matters" by Mona Charen
One of the greatest changes I made was straightening my teeth with braces at age 29. Never regretted it!!!
Your Glow Up advice is the only one I’ve seen that not just focuses on the exterior veneer, but beauty shining through from within. There is nothing more striking than inner confidence and security. Love your positivity and wisdom!
I'm so so so thankful for your videos. I'm going to turn 20 soon, and I've decided that it's the perfect time for me to grow and glow. Thanks to you I can learn how to do that. I've always been really insecure and too scared of people's reactions to change things about my appearance and behaviour, but now I see that I need to do whatever feels right to me so I can live my best life and become the best version of myself. Thank you so much for all the positive energy and advice you give ♡
happy early birthday :)
@@jenniferyates502 thank you so much!
Nowdays we more than ever tending to have globally the same standards of beauty and trends, and the way we should look, but at the same time, there is people who embrassing they own kind of beauty more than ever. But I agree with you. The beauty have so many faces, and we all should enjoy,embrasse and really show our uniquenes.
Love this! Just graduated & I'm taking a gap year to loose weight cause it's holding me back from my full potential. I know God has great plans for my future but first I need to deal with this issue that I've been struggling with since I was in middle school. DOING. IT. FOR. MYSELF. ONLY. 🧡
Mrs. Midwest, I just want to say that I absolutely love you! It's clear that you do your research and take great care of making sure you give your viewers information that will help them no matter who they are. Thank you!
I so appreciate you mentioning disability. I have a chronic illness which has meant that energy has been a premium, and now I’m looking into a glow up to get back out into the world again 👍👍
You're such an inspiration!! ❤️ You've helped me embrace my femininity (although I'm still working on it) and i cannot thank you enough!
As a black woman, I absolutely adore the fact that you are educated on black hair types! You are so inclusive when its comes to topics of beauty and femininity, which is amazing because there is a great variety of ethnic individuals who are also interested in these topics. I love the fact that you are Christian because your love for all of God's creation shows through your equal and inclusive advice. Keep up the amazing work! Your channel is very unique but one that is very needed for women like me who have felt left out by the mainstream culture
I’m so happy you mention the religious side by saying “for my Christians” not trying to push your religious views on everyone understanding all women come from different cultures and religions💗💗
You always upload exactly what I need exactly when I need it! Time to take a well-deserved break from Pinterest! 😂
I appreciate you so much! I am getting married soon and I am in need of a glow up- it will not only positively impact me but my future husband as well! Thanks for the wisdom❤️
Hold up! Wait a minute!! ✋🏾 This is my first time on your channel and what I have to say is- Ma’am you DID THAT with this video! Okay?! Enjoyed this MUCH and I heard that 4c love you gave! Just a wonderful video for all women who want to Glow Up! Bravo 👏🏾
I love this. Caring for what you have is so important. It's like that saying that goes “the grass is not always greener on the other side”. When you water your own grass, literally and figuratively, it becomes better naturally."
Love you all ❤️
Love this! I’m starting my glow up journey and a huge part has been microblading my eyebrows. (I had over-plucked 90s eyebrows!) I feel so much better about my face and it saves me a ton of time on my makeup routine. Another thing I’ve done is decreasing my acne with Keto and intermittent fasting. This definitely hasn’t been an overnight transformation but I’m slowly getting to where I want to be! Btw, thank you for being so inspirational and encouraging!
Yesss! A Mrs. Midwest Video!!!
Thank you so much for this video! You are such a beacon of light on the internet and such a wise, beautiful, FEMININE woman!!
I am 20 and just found out about your channel; your advice is really helping me during my first year at University. Thank you so much.
I am French and Italian heritage. My glow up look is more “pasta with cream sauce”🙃
Joygernaut M YESSS 🤣❤️
As someone w Irish and Italian heritage...same
This really helped me to accept and admit that I had not been doing things in my beauty routine that really serve me. I've been bleaching my hair( due to jealousy or my mother and my siblings all having red or blonde hair and I have a little more of the darker hair color), but instead of wearing black and bleaching my hair, I am now going toward the warm colors that accentuate my auburn strands and I'm doing the no poo method thanks to you. I love the biblical values you employ in your life like taking care of your hair and living in a way that is honoring to the lord like you said. Definitely needed to hear this. Thank you.
You are beautiful and a lovely person. Honestly you’ve inspired me and even helped me in my eating disorder recovery to realise that beauty isn’t just weighing less. That I have to be emaciated to be beautiful. Please ignore any bad things other people are saying.
I am currently working on a 2 year glow-up plan but I knew I wasn't asking myself the right questions, Thank you so much for this Caitlin !
I came from Jaclyn’s channel... she got you all wrong ! I feel bad! I just want you to know you have a new subscriber and A LOT of people are supporting you in her comment section! 😊
Jaclyn Hill?
@@melissajane7247 No. Jaclyn the small minded hater. Lol
I know a lot of people might think this is extreme but I have a very gummy smile and I was honestly looking at surgery when I found out that you can use botox to relax the upper lip. Now my gums barely show when I smile and laugh! That helped so much because I wasn't self conscious over being happy.
Mrs. Midwest your channel grew so fast, you are amazing! 💕💕💕
Even though I am watching this late (I saved it to watch later, 27 y.o. mom of a little one here!), this is exactly what I needed right now and I have been doing my own soul-searching glow-up lately. Thank you for the spiritual as well as emotional encouragement rather than just a shallow tutorial. That, I think, is the best thing about your channel. Practical advice, but if there is no heart behind it, you don't do it! So thanks!
I am genuinely so happy I found your channel. I thought nobody else thought the same way I did. It’s such a breath of fresh air.
I really like watching your videos because I finally feel like I’ve found a youtuber I can relate to! Not only because I’m also 5’8 with a larger chest(😄) and you’re great fashion inspo in that sense, but I’m also a traditional, christian girl with alot of emotions and it’s so nice to know that those qualities shouldn’t be downplayed just because society tells me to. Really long comment but basically what I’m trying to say is I’m glad I found your channel and thank you for spreading love and kindness 😊
Thank you so much for making these videos you will never truly know how much you are impacting so many peoples lives!!
"And if you can't, you're gunna have to get over it" 🤣🤣🤣 the more I watch you the more I like you!
You are SO beautiful inside and out. Thank you for this video, I’ve been struggling a lot with myself, and I needed to hear this
Aww you're a Believer, woo-hoo! I'm also a five-eight and buxom lady but always looked at both of those things as great attributes of mine when it is hard to think of something lol...great advice to not ruminate on shortcomings...be solution centered!
I absolutely love your videos! You are like a big sister and you have such great advice and wisdom. I also really appreciate the fact that you acknowledge the beauty of women of all ethnicities/backgrounds. As one of the only asian girls in my town growing up, I felt so unattractive and it took me a long time to accept myself as I am.
I love your videos and your content so much. Thank you for being honest and helping me and so many other people, I appreciate it x
Yes yes yes! I was planning my glow up starting 2020. This came at the perfect time!
Thank you so much for this video. I have been struggling mentally since 2018 but this year it got worst. Anxiety attacks, panic attacks, crying everyday. I look a hot mess. I have become insecure and I have let myself go not only mentally but physically. This video helped me so much. Thank you..I know God has me and is helping me through such a dark time. God bless you! You’re a beauty!
I did something different with my hair since your first glowup video and it was easy to do and beautiful. Thanks for encouraging me!
love the fact that you are promoting 4c hair!
If you love and make peace with what you see in the mirror; everything begins to change. Loving who you are on the inside changes everything on the outside. Speak life to yourself.
Praise the Lord my beautiful sister. Such a nice delivery.
Love from Los Angeles.
Enjoy being with your husband !!
🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🙏
I am surprised, this is full of advice that isn't mainstream and only focus on outer appereance. I'm so happy I found this channel. I am extremely insecure about myself. I struggle with low self-esteem and anxiety. Now I'm 20, I really felt like I need to change my ways. You are my role model Mrs. Midwest. Thank you for making this video🤗
I’m getting married in feb 2021! So my glow up year will be next year, it’s also my last year of living with my family so I have the time to focus on myself a bit! Looking forward to it :)
Sophie Melissa congrats! I pray God bless your marriage with many many years! Getting married is so EXCITING!
I watched your other “glow up” video, but this one was even better. The “why” behind improving our aesthetic is so important, especially when I have always struggled with self worth. It’s easy to discourage myself because I’m being “vain” or “insecure.” No! There is nothing wrong with caring for our bodies!!! Like you said, it affects everyone around us positively and our own mental health so much! God made our bodies- they are temporal, yes, but not to be looked down upon. We are made in the image of God! Sending out love to anyone who thinks they don’t deserve to put effort into their appearance or that it’s wrong to care about how we look. Like you said, it’s all about balance.
this girl needs so much more recognition really. thanks for making this :)))))))
Thank you for sharing these words of wisdom, especially on the practical level. It's a message many of ladies need to hear to accept what we cannot change and improve the things that we do have a little more control over.
This is the video I’ve been looking for 😭😭
you're a breath a fresh air on TH-cam 💕
My Malay ancestry game is strong - I have a flat and rounded nose, thick lips, thick eyebrows and big eyes. My fisherman grandfather, who was originally one of the few natives in old Singapore, would be proud of me 😤😂
I just get more and more impressed by the quality of your content. I have yet to disappointed!
My glow up as a 42 year old with greying hair means blonde highlights to blend, I wax underarms and lower legs, pedicures and gel nails. I pay for all these services because I work and I have to look nice and because I clean all the time my nails get beat up. Also, waxing is super affordable and I’m hoping to avoid hair in my old age.... im getting a chest reduction on a few weeks as my back is pretty bad. I do love long daily hikes and walks !
ive been in such a lazy emotional funk. thank you for this refreshing message and motivation. It was really needed in my life
Great video as usual :). It took me awhile to love my kinky dreadlocks but like you said I just had to work with ( I started doing cute feminine styles to make them stand out) Ever since I started to embrace my femininity I started getting complaints on EVERYTHING ( including my dreadlocks). You have made such a big difference in my life. You are truly a blessing!
