I’m choosing to pause the video and write this comment because you mentioning how the pressure of deciding one passion/interest/life path has you feeling like you’re floating REALLY REALLY got to me. I’m currently taking a break from my job and have been dealing with severe burnout and depression. Most days I’m torn between all these options and interests in front of me. We live in a society that constantly tells us that choosing one career will help you be successful; but it’s taken so much energy (and countless hours of therapy hah) for me to say that I don’t need to choose and my definition of success CAN BE DIFFERENT. I’m so happy to have you back on this tiny corner of the internet ❤
I completely agree with your perspective on the pressure society puts on people to have one career. I feel it too and I try to remind myself that I can do many different things. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and I wish you the best on your journey!
I'm only 20 now and I've been watching Nina's every single video for years and years. She's helped me grow out of my orthorexia and obsessive tendencies. I'm grateful for Nina's presence on the internet, and it feels good to read her words and watch her videos growing into adulthood. She's the only youtuber I watch, because I always know I'll watch something soothing and neccesary. Thank you for your openness, your authenticity and kind words, always xx
The casual mention of chronic depression and self-isolating immediately made me feel validated and less alone. Please talk about this more for the people like us who often feel defective...
Oh Nina! I feel like there is not a single writer in the world who would dare to say that writing is easy for them. I struggle with this too, the desire to write is so strong but when I sit down and open my laptop... the feeling that floods my chest is everything but pleasant. I try to push through and not get too frustrated with myself, I fight my perfectionism by alternating my first language and English depending on what feels right at the moment. I can always go back and translate the passages or words back to the target language. This just helps me get rid of the initial writer's block which keeps coming back tirelessly every time I decide to write haha Keep up the good work, can't wait to read something from you soon!
Nina, this video is so relatable and I’m sure even your “worst” video is something we would all find peace, calm, relatability and insight! Thank you for sharing you exactly as you are! 🥰💓
The way you edit your cooking segments is so relaxing and what you said around fear resonated with me, a lot to think about, thanks for uploading today. Best wishes ❤
the way you film and edit your videos is seriously goals! always leaves me feeling like I want to get up and create! *also, where is your 'todo bien' banner/flag from??? I NEED!
I’m also working my way through The Artists Way at the moment. Which, as you know, has me looking out for serendipitous signs. The fact that you’re on the same journey put a huge smile on my face this morning. Hope it brings you exactly what you need. From my perspective you’re clearly on the right path ❤️
How lovely to wake up to an upload from you!! I have my morning coffee and I’m sitting by an open window. Starting my day with a Nina video always makes it a good day. 🤗
So good to have you back Nina! I always await your videos and watch them twice each time, cause I feel like they are ever so tender and I want to soak them in. Thank you!
the way you talk about writing is exactly how i, and many others, feel. a week ago when i hit 20k i thought “this is something, someone is going to love this.” and this week i feel very “this is horrible, why am i doing this?” but i know the wave of confidence and pleasure is going to come again soon, as long as i keep going. but know-i will ALWAYS, always, always want to read anything and everything you have to say/share!!! :) ❤️
ah this is perfect for my morning today! i'm actually cleaning in between getting ready and starting off my work for today, so thank you for your companionship
i am so glad to see another one of you uploads. i really appreciate your videos even as much as i know social media is weird and hard. im glad ure still here!!
Nina just when I forget about you, I receive your insightful upload like a wrapped surprise gift. Your struggle with perfectionism may be what makes you a better writer/creator in the long run. Life is about quality moments vs quantity for me. Thanks for sharing today.
siempre es un gusto volver a verte Nina, yo tambien estoy pasando por un momento similar, me inspiraste mucho (como siempre y despues de tantos años) muchas gracias
Not leading with fear! I have a tendency to hold back based on what could go wrong. I went on my first hike yesterday and felt so much excitement. Though I’ll dress better next time because spiders and mosquitos feasted on my legs 😂 All in the learning I guess! We love a full moon in Pisces upload, thanks Nina ❤
I sooo recommend daily rituals women at work (especially the audiobook!) for wondering if something hard that you’re drawn to is worth doing. Because it goes through the routines of women artists and their relationship to their work and it reframed my asking this question too! So happy to to have your warm light bless my screen today, always love watching your videos, Nina ❤
Hi Nina, I would recommend looking into Barbara Sher, her book called Refuse to Choose explains people described as scanners who have so many interests and the reasoning behind how this subgroup struggles picking only one thing. Realised I was a scanner and society is not set up for us and makes us feel bad for not choosing one thing. You may also be one if you read into it!
At the start of the video I was just thinking about the artists way and how it’s likely something you would greatly enjoy if you hadn’t had your hands on it already. But sure enough! You mentioned just shortly after you’re reading it in book club currently - love those moments of synchronicity 💌
Stopped at 7:46 to, of course, say that i heard Juans chilean accent. Love your videos btw Nina, they've been a source of calm for many years and i like that i've grown up (sort of) alongside you❤ (Por qué escribí en inglés, no lo sé francamente)
Lovely Video Nina. Last segment of the video reminded me how freeing it was to read daily rituals of famous creatives. The book is called ‘Daily Rituals’, by Mason Curey. So liberating to know these big painters and writers and all sorts of creatives were struggling with getting themselves to a balance everyday and each found things that worked for them. And some things are super bizzare 😅
i've been in a pretty bad and long depressive rut myself, so this motivated me haha, also appreciate the talks on perfection and fear cause that's 100% what stops me from growing as an aspiring writer 🥲❤️
me encanta recibir la notificacion de que hay nuevo video tuyo 🥺 siempre da mucho calorcito en el corazón ver tus vídeos y escucharte hablar, y que ilusion escuchar español en tu city adventure con Juan! Gracias por seguir compartiendo tus weekly notes con nosotras💜
nina!! i’m so so glad you’re enjoying the three body problem! 💗 such a different style of sci-fi, honestly i find myself thinking about the themes/ideas from that series all the time haha another series i’d recommend is nk jemisin’s broken earth trilogy - totally different but excellent sci-fi/fantasy vibes 📚💗
You live in Australia?? I thought you live in Europe lol Going through a very depressed time atm.. your videos are really lifting me up right now. Just tidied my room a little, made some quick dinner and I might go for a run tomorrow morning lol :) ❤
This video was so comforting to watch and i related to a lot of what you said. thank you for sharing 💗 also, the song at 5:50 is amazing! What is it called?
I read an Oscar Wilde quote recently which brought me a lot of comfort - “If you want to be a grocer, or a general, or a politician, or a judge, you will invariably become it; that is your punishment. If you never know what you want to be, if you live what some might call the dynamic life - but what I will call the artistic life - if each day you are unsure of who you are and what you know you will never become anything, and that is your reward.”
Loved that, thank you. I'm 41 now and I don't ask myself these questions anymore. I do some things I enjoy, others not so much, but none of it defines me. I'm perpetually in flux.

What you may see as boring video, I would see as relaxing. I am drawn to simple and calm. Thank you for sharing what you do. You’re my people ❤

Nina i know this is not the main point but your hair looks SO GOOD!!
Your thoughts at the end were very helpful. I feel the same way too and I need to remind myself to create despite the perfectionism in me.
I love all of the music you use in your videos! Thanks for turning me on to some great music that's new to me.
This video is pure romance ❤ always so happy when your videos pop up in my feed
Ayyy that makes me so happy to hear 💗💗💗
Your laugh is my absolute favorite! ❤❤
every time i rewatch on of your videos and think about how lovely it is to hear your musings, you drop a new one
The way you edit your cooking segments is so relaxing and what you said around fear resonated with me, a lot to think about, thanks for uploading today. Best wishes ❤
So glad to see your beautiful face! Please remember you and your video brighten someone’s life❤
Thank you for making TH-cam a much better place
The way you cook beans... it always looks so yummy my god.
the way you film and edit your videos is seriously goals! always leaves me feeling like I want to get up and create!

missed your calm pretty videos!

have been waiting for your new vlog for weeks ;_; I love it so much
ah this is perfect for my morning today! i'm actually cleaning in between getting ready and starting off my work for today, so thank you for your companionship
Ohhh thankuuu for being here!! Have a wonderful morning!! 🌷🌞
Every time you leave I worry you won't come back. But then you do. Thank you for coming back. ♥️
i am so glad to see another one of you uploads. i really appreciate your videos even as much as i know social media is weird and hard. im glad ure still here!!
Ohhh 🥹 thank you so much!!! I’m very happy to be here. It’s so sweet reading comments like these 💗 I really appreciate them x
Do keep writing, best without thinking it is a book. Write with abandonment. It will liberate you to write better. All the best!
Nina just when I forget about you, I receive your insightful upload like a wrapped surprise gift. Your struggle with perfectionism may be what makes you a better writer/creator in the long run. Life is about quality moments vs quantity for me. Thanks for sharing today.

muchas gracias
Awesome one! Thank you so much for making and sharing this video 🙏 .Also beautiful music in there (the female singer? 👌)
Not leading with fear! I have a tendency to hold back based on what could go wrong. I went on my first hike yesterday and felt so much excitement. Though I’ll dress better next time because spiders and mosquitos feasted on my legs 😂 All in the learning I guess! We love a full moon in Pisces upload, thanks Nina ❤
I've been checking out your channel twice weekly hoping that you might upload a new video. Atlasssssst! ♡ Thanks Nina ☆☆☆
you're a medicine to my broken soul
Mi piace molto la tua onestà!

Ohhh I’ve had that book on my list for a while now!! I must pick it up ASAP 🧡 thankuuu for the rec and the biggest of hugs to you 🌷

More "boring" videos please! ❤ amen to just doing and not being a perfectionist ✨
You are a true gem Nina!
Absolutely loved that video🥰

I’m so happy for a new video!! I enjoyed it a lot.
Love this! ❤❤❤
The music in this video was on point 🤌🏼
Loving your new hair color&cut!! Looking beautiful as always!!

Just back from a short run, drinking earl grey, and you uploaded a video! Perfect morning 🌄
Ohhhh what a sweet morning!! Love a cup of earl grey 🧡
@nina.montagne not gonna lie Nina, I've watched your videos for years and am a little starstruck 😊 keep being you! X
If writing were easy everyone would be a writer. You write because you have to, not necessarily because you want to 💛
Loved the chat at the end ! Thank you for this video Nina
Thank you so much for watching 🧡🧡

I love hearing about your writing journey. I struggle with many of the same things you expressed in this video. Thank you for being so open.

So many people are reading it right now it seems to me!! May you have the best time with it 💗🌷
So calming 🙏🏻

You live in Australia?? I thought you live in Europe lol

Un abrazo Nina (: Que tus lindos gatitos te abracen en esos días duros. Un gusto ver tus videos, as usual 🫶
This video was so comforting to watch and i related to a lot of what you said. thank you for sharing 💗 also, the song at 5:50 is amazing! What is it called?
Can we please get the recipe for the beans?? 💌
Nina, If you've never read Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott, I highly recommend it. Writing is hard :)
Hi Nina! Where is your top from? xo
Great video

your cute and cozy vibe....
