    Fabulous news on the job - you radiate enthusiasm and passion - you have skills that they sure don’t teach in college -

    Congratulations Emily!!! And a nature center!♥️. 56 year old mom in CA and YES!! I look forward to your videos and they bring me so much joy! I always look forward to Tuesday evenings and my simple pleasure of your positivity and optimism. You have truly re-sparked my love of thrifting and decorating with vintage treasures. The other day I went to the thrift store and bought two vintage sheets. It wasn’t until I got home and was watching an older video that I realized I had bought the exact sheets you used in your living room curtains and in the backing of your little white hanging kitchen display/shelf! I was so darn proud of myself. My heart hurt to hear you were going through some tough times. But I believe in you and believe you are going to land on your feet.
    Love your vintage shopping videos, and your vintage decor. I cannot wait to see what you are going to come up with in this new house!!
    And as a feral cat advocate and mother of a trans kid-more thank yous!❤❤❤

    I've recently come across your channel and I really enjoy it. Congratulations on the new job! Don't stress yourself out, shorter videos, longer videos, they're both good!

    Yay! Sounds like a Dream job! So happy for you! Just do TH-cam when you can don’t pressure yourself, we will all always be happy to see you! 😃

    Congrats Emily, I’m knew to you channel so I have started my binge on yesterday.
    If you talk about a perfect job for you. God is looking out for you! Social media and nature!!!!
    Personally, I love vintage shopping, garage sale videos. But, even though you have a job now, you still have to control your spending. In case you need a large car repair or something. You have to have some money saved. Garage sales have vintage stuff and usually for cheap. I don’t know if they are easy ones to edit.
    Hanging out the clothes were ok. But if something had to go maybe that would be something to drop. But if you have to do that stuff anyway. That’s easy. I will watch it to support you for the times when I will get to see more of the vintage stuff.
    I love all your clothes. For some of us new subscribers. I would just love to see your wardrobe for spring/summer and fall/winter and some of the stories behind them.
    Of course the holiday around the house is so cool. This year will be different and exiting.
    Em, as a former Associate Director in nursing I was always asked why do you take so long to interview staff. I wanted to hire caring, authentic and committed people. Skills can be taught a lot easier than undoing lazy, disengaged people with bad attitudes that have a Master’s Degree.
    I loved seeing people excited by life! And if you came in having looked how you could make the improvements in the job you were applying for!!!! Gasp 😱.
    You got the call on Friday instead of Monday because they didn’t want you to have an opportunity to interview anywhere else!!! I would have done the same thing. So nice of you to share this with others and encourage them.

    • @emilyretro
      @emilyretro  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for sharing your experience from the other side of the hiring process! Also I appreciate your input for future content ☺️

    I love your videos and all your shorts and look forward to your weekly posts. I like the variety of your channel. I really enjoy the vintage decorating and easy crafts. Congratulations on landing your dream job Emily.

    • @emilyretro
      @emilyretro  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yay thanks! I think that too much variety is a bad thing but I’m glad you told me you like it, I had no idea 😄

    • @dryellowkate
      @dryellowkate ปีที่แล้ว

      I like the variety too! I liked the cleaning out videos when you were working on your basement. I enjoyed the unpacking video of your kitchen and think more of those would be fun too.

  • @emilyretro
    @emilyretro  ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Please let me know all of your thoughts and suggestions for my videos going forward! You have the best ideas and I can't wait to hear from you 💚 P.S. I don’t mean to confuse anyone about the “juicy” tidbit I mentioned 😂 it’s on the nature center’s Instagram which I link to in the description. It’s a small little snippet about my personal life that I haven’t felt comfortable enough to share FOR REAL yet on my social media.

    • @emilywatson3226
      @emilywatson3226 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Just saw the I got the job video.
      I am so excited for you
      You should be so very proud that you used your skills and talents, your enthusiasm and your boldness to make this happen for you. I do think you are perfect for the job and I am thrilled for you. You are an overcomer… so pleased for you! 💯👍😊

      Thank you 🥹😭

  • @ShannonGanshorn
    @ShannonGanshorn ปีที่แล้ว

    I think they key to keeping THIS TH-cam channel going is to film your routines - shopping, cooking, crafting, gardening, etc - and just NOT stress about all the editing and production. We want to see YOU! Blips and bloopers don't matter at all.

  • @reneestiffler
    @reneestiffler ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Oh Emily!!! Congrats on the new job!!! What a huge weight lifted off your shoulders!! I love all your videos! I definitely look forward to them each week! However, do what you feel comfortable doing! Whether you stick with once a week, switch to once a month or just do shorts, we will all still follow, watch, support and encourage you along the way!! You do you!!!! You are amazing at what you do! 😊❤

    @shannon_w. ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Oh my gosh Emily, I am soooooo HAPPY for you!!!! My daughter and son both just graduated with their Bachelors degrees and trying to find jobs. My daughter went for Criminal Justice and now wants NOTHING to do with that field. But I am definitely going to refer her to this video! Thank you Doll and good luck with the new job ❤
    BTW, I LOVE your weekly videos!

  • @magiccitymama1620
    @magiccitymama1620 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Congrats on your new exciting job! Hopefully in the coming years 4-year degrees won't be as important as creativity, experience, and solid work ethic in certain fields. They are lucky to have you there.

  • @janetrichardson2644
    @janetrichardson2644 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You go girl! Networking works wonders but putting the effort in to tailoring your resume to your dream job gets you to the interview. Your attention you put in to preparing for the interview and your enthusiasm sealed the deal. Do great things in your new job and remember to share you love of what you do to help others in the field.

  • @MariaLovesThis
    @MariaLovesThis ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Emily! First, congratulations on the job, and I learned a lot from your tips. Thanks for taking the time to lay it all out. Also: while I do look forward and have notifications for your videos, I’m happy to get content from you twice a month or randomly, than not at all! So I’ll say please don’t stop, but also slowing down the frequency is okay, since you’ll be busier and need your personal time as well. I enjoy hearing from you as if you were someone I’ve actually met! 🧡🌼

  • @vintageresalemama903
    @vintageresalemama903 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Emily, congratulations on landing your dream job! I can see why you were hired; you present yourself very well and are very articulate. I'm a newer subscriber and I do look forward to your videos. I like the lifestyle-type videos very much, and if they're easier to record/edit/put together then do that. I wish you all the best in your new position!

  • @shirleyspanjer8742
    @shirleyspanjer8742 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @jenniferweed2552
    @jenniferweed2552 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you have 70% of the skills for a job... APPLY! Women are more likely to NOT apply if they think they don't meet all the criteria. And regarding a degree....APPLY ANYWAY! Super excited for you Emily!

    • @emilyretro
      @emilyretro  ปีที่แล้ว

      VERY TRUE! I do apply anyway but I’ve never gotten an interview until this time 🤣

    @ninashortridge6829 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    EMILY!!!!! This is so exciting! I am utterly thrilled for you (albeit I had to wait a week since last week's cliff hanger). Your dream job. A dreamy apple orchard outside your front door. A dreamy, cozy front porch to sit in and reflect on your glorious, new, and well deserved life. Bravo, my friend. Bravo.

  • @bevwyckoff2451
    @bevwyckoff2451 ปีที่แล้ว

    Congrats!! So fun! You have the life/resilience skills they don’t teach. Run with it fellow Michigander! I will watch and adore anything you out out, anytime. Yes I want to see the shopping decorating- I’m 63 and everything you have is what I grew up with. Enjoy!! Do your best and go to bed knowing you did so

  • @lisalayne3850

    I'm a bit late to your channel, but better late than never. I love your enthusiasm, your mellow vibe, and your willingness to help others. I'm a (youthful) three-quarters of a century old and love your content and presentation. I turned my junking buddy on to your channel and now she's addicted too. Keep doing what you're doing even if it's less often than before your new job. You are an inspiration--even to old ladies such as me!

  • @TheVintageSister

    Congratulations! I work for the NJ Forest Service so I know what a gift it is to work with/around nature. I definitely look forward to your weekly videos!

  • @rebeccafear9386
    @rebeccafear9386 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would totally look forward to weekly video’s… you could also do videos of: random outings-like music in the park, vintage car shows, farmers markets, meals from vintage cookbooks. Maybe do educational videos on helping others learn about how to better use social media to improve their side hustle’s “brand” (ehm… it’s me, I want your help)
    Do a collaboration with other content creators or attend one of those “do something events”… or better yet host a live craft/vintage upcyle event locally ❤❤❤

  • @SallyStitchesAnd
    @SallyStitchesAnd ปีที่แล้ว

    Congratulations, Emily! To answer your questions: I do look forward to your videos! And a lot of the people I follow post 1-2 times per month (the same day of the week) so if the pace is difficult for you, then slow it down!
    Also, I like a mix of videos. I also follow Hamimommy and like how sometimes she posts about the house she’s building, other times it’s “clean with me”, etc. My favorite videos of yours are the holiday storage video, the “shop with me” at antique stores or flea markets, and the craft room organizing video. Day in the life videos are fun, too, even if it’s literally just catching up on chores. Can’t wait to see what direction you take your channel!

  • @christinajohnson4342

    @oldcollegecoed ปีที่แล้ว

    I know how hard and and scary it is to find a job without having a college degree, and I am so happy for you & proud of you! I do look forward to your videos, because of your personality, so I enjoy everything you post. But my favorites are your hauls and watching you decorate!👏🏻💓💐

  • @emily_gross1990
    @emily_gross1990 ปีที่แล้ว

    Would love to see some "day in the life" videos.
    Or maybe a day trip or something.
    Possibly also ones showing your vintage clothing and explaining the items.
    We all will understand and you can get videos out when you can.
    Smaller home videos can come weekly or bi-weekly even. When you feel like doing other videos those can come when they come.
    Just excited for whatever is to come!

  • @joancreekmore5754

  • @ninashortridge6829
    @ninashortridge6829 ปีที่แล้ว

    oops! forgot to say, "yes" I look forward to your weekly you tube videos. I would miss them and miss catching up on all the things you do that inspire me. Maybe if they seem like too much to do, cut them in half. Meaning, instead of a 23-25 minute video, make a 14 to 15 minute video. Just a thought. You CAN do both, as we have all come to know - you are a superwoman!

  • @kaymedwa
    @kaymedwa ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes of course I look forward to ur videos!! I really like the shopping ones and the decorating ones. Now I look forward to your home/room improvement videos like when the sewing room gets up to speed. Even the simple things like watering or hanging laundry out to dry is calming to watch and makes me appreciate doing things in life that aren’t costly or a big time commitment. Congratulations on landing ur dream job🎉

  • @debranielsen2002
    @debranielsen2002 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I am so happy for you!!! 🎉 I always look forward to your videos, but it is not necessary to go on any schedule other than your own. You have a life, live it. I know I will be here whenever you post. (And I love Hammimommy too. I would also suggest Nami’s Life if you don’t know her.) I loved the shopping video, but seeing you create your home bit by bit is fun. And thank you for putting out water for your new friends. ♥️

  • @rebeccabuck8716

    I'm thrilled for you! I will miss your weekly videos. I hope you can continue. Even a really short update would be fine. Stuff you've arranged, thrifted, week life update , garden etc. It does not need to be a long epic that takes forever to film and edit. Heck even a couple of minutes of groundhogs would be cool!

    • @emilyretro

I'm relatively new to your channel but I already look forward to seeing your videos! Your wildlife clips at the end are so fun and I love to see your yard! Who needs plants on the patio when you have so many amazing plants in the yard!

I would truly miss you on that weekly basis but having said that I don’t want to put any pressure on you. You deserve a life too! As far as content I like them all from the major projects to the little things. I will watch whatever and whenever you post. Much success to you in your new job! You deserve it!

    • @emilyretro
      @emilyretro  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you so so much for watching, Karla! I’ll keep trying to do once a week but if there’s a week where I run out of ideas I might skip once in a while 😂 that’s my plan right now anyhow

    @thesnugbungalow ปีที่แล้ว

    Congratulations, Emily! That job sounds amazing! I hope you love it 100! Of COURSE we look forward to your videos! But, because you have shared so much of your real life self in them, we are also rooting for you! We want you to live your best life, even if that means we get to spend less time with you. Honestly, whatever kind of videos you want to put out, in whatever timeline is just fine. And if you are doing a big project, you could make it a series of videos, it doesn't have to be start to finish in one video. Aren't baby groundhogs the cutest? Just a round ball of fur! I read that groundhogs have several different "homes" for different times of the year, and use them over and over each year. I can hear them talking to their friends, "Oh, we summer in Emily's Yard! The food is superb, and the water is always fresh!" 😁

  • @cheriemicallef3210
    @cheriemicallef3210 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @dianewilliams9729
    @dianewilliams9729 ปีที่แล้ว

    Recent subscriber to your channel and applaud the wisdom of the group that interviewed and then hired you. You seem very enthusiastic and genuinely kind so think you will be a great asset. A little sad you might not be putting out as many videos but one of my other favorites (Veni Vidi Vintage) rarely posts but when he does, be still my heart. I love vintage so anything involving vintage is what I like viewing.

  • @WImomma1
    @WImomma1 ปีที่แล้ว

    Congrats, Emily! How awesome to be surrounded by nature at work! Don't always have time to watch your new video on Tuesdays but when I do check in with TH-cam, I look for your upload. I'm sure its easier to film shorter videos and sometimes it's easier for me to fit in watching shorter videos, too. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Love when you sort through your vintage collections and especially enjoy seeing how you decorate and arrange cute vignettes. Looking forward to seeing how you fill that cool minty green shelving unit. 🙂

  • @christmascarol1264
    @christmascarol1264 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @bonesareheavy
    @bonesareheavy ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So, So happy for you Emily! I LOVE nature too! I did one of those 'what your future job should be' tests in high school and I was matched to be a Forest Ranger. I became a Veterinary Technician though...so kinda close. I may not be the best sample to dip into their opinion on as far as your future videos go because I don't do much in/with the social media world, but I'll give you my cents worth anyhow. I like your videos about big projects, life updates, and your advice such as today. I like the random treats in life so I don't mind when you do videos and what day they come out. Whenever I can find the random slip of paper I wrote down my password for Instagram on (years ago!) I'll be sure to check out your 'juicy' story! ...Like I said, I am not much on social media! 🤣

    • @emilyretro
      @emilyretro  ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha thanks for sharing! And a vet tech is an important job. I cry whenever I go to the vet because I hate seeing animals hurting. I appreciate what you do because I could never do it!

    Congratulations on the dream job and every step that got you there built you up to get it. Continue spreading your passion in all areas and abundance will continue to flow for you. Thank you for being authentically you and for sharing your journey which inspires us all. Blessings sweet Emily and will continue to support you always! 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

    I LOVE your videos and they are one of my tuesday highlights for sure! But you dont need to do big projects! I love easy content. When you place your camera on a tripod and just film how you decorate a space I am one happy camper 😊 I also love your Thrift Hauls, your crafting content und especially I love your new house content. Cleaning, organizing etc.
    I for example cant wait when you take of the kitchen cabinets and decorate. Or your sewing room, the big green shelf... I am curios about every change in your little house. Maybe you can do more in "vlog style" and show us around? Room tours for every little change 😅
    In am a content creator myself and I see all the hard work you put in (different camera angles etc) ❤
    Oh and I am so so happy for you that you found love again ❤ I made a squeaky noise when I read the insta-post of your new workplace (I follow them now bc of you, even if I pretty sure never will be able to visit your beautiful state 😂 but maybe? Who knows!)
    Im am sure your youtube numbers will explode one day!! You deserve 100k and more
    Have a wonderful rest of your day
    Fina (from germany 😅 the one that was anxious bc of the cliffhanger)

    Guten Tag frau Emily !....No pressure Emily, just a note to say i look forward to your new videos and wanted to congratulate you on your new job! I dont get down S. Michigan much these days but the vintage shops u shop look amazing! My favorite vid of course was your trip to Frankenmuth. Its a real treat to visit! Thank you for your happy and bright videos and sharing your adventures.

    Big BIG congrats to you!! Yes, I look forward to your videos every week, BUT I would watch them no matter what day you post. I've enjoyed the 'tours' of your holiday decorations and different collections, updates on your move, etc. I love everyday life stuff too though. Maybe a farmers market tour? Take us to the Pie Pantry! 😄 I don't have a college degree either. Same for my husband! It was something that always bothered both of us earlier on in our adult working lives, but we have managed to land some really great roles. Like you mentioned, I think it's starting to matter less and less in some industries/companies as long as you have some solid work experience.

      Thanks for sharing I’m glad I’m not the only one that had felt bad about not having a degree. The farmers market idea is a good one I go often! Thank you for the suggestion 😄

    Absolutely I look forward to your videos, but you have to figure out what is going to work for you. I'm interested in what ever you are doing!! Love seeing you shopping, or decorating your home, looking at your beautiful yard.

  • @dianajemison105
    @dianajemison105 ปีที่แล้ว

    Congratulations on your new job!!! Good for you!!! I'm so happy for you! I love your videos, but if that means less of them or shorter ones, that's ok. You need to do what's best for your situation. You could, maybe, (I don't know how long these things take) do a short decorating video or cooking video or potting a plant while telling us how your job is going video, once a week. I love seeing all of the wildlife you have around you, too. 😊

  • @carrieowens4907
    @carrieowens4907 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm so excited for you!!! I love all you videos so just do what you can do without stressing yourself out. One idea is to vintage shop then show us how you would use it in a vignette. That way you can only buy a couple of things but have some content. Or "shop your house" and out together a display. (Then you don't have to spend any money) 😃😃😃

    I'm so happy for you and this whole new life chapter, major kudos for putting yourself out there! It paid off.
    Regarding your videos, I absolutely look forward to your videos every week, you're honestly one of my favorite youtubers right now! But if you are only posting once or twice a month, I will still look forward to your content. I really would love to see how your new house turns out, and continue all the wonderful wildlife updates you've been sharing. I came here from IG so I've been following since the beginning! Wishing you all the best in your new job, it really sounds like a good fit for you!

    Wow I'm so happy for you that you found your dream job. Congratulations it looks like this is really a great job for you and I wish you lots of fun with creating content for them and being able to show them that it's really worthy to have you on their team.
    I have to admit thay I just once a while watch your youtube video's. I do like them and when I watch them I take time to watch them and I will do my best to not skipp any adds anymore😉
    I would just suggest to follow your gut feeling about what to share on your youtube channel. That's always the best idea because those are the money making ideas...they pop in your head and you just have to follow them and they will be successfull. So keep on following your heart and your gut feelings and keep on sharing what makes you happy in whatever way💃🌸🎉🤩 big hugs from Susan from the Netherlands💕😘

    Make sure when you take pictures of people using the trails and business, that you have permission to use their picture and name. A business I worked for once got sued big time by not getting permission first to use pictures of people. Also, a sign should be up stating that there will be media video/pictures around the center and on the trails. Congratulations on your dream job!

  • @lauracowman6335

    Emily, A HUGE Congratulations 🎊🎈 on your new job. I always look forward to your videos. They are always a weekly highlight for me. 😊 I love your enthusiasm! I found your channel last October, while searching for vintage Halloween. I love the outdoors, vintage and thrifting too. I hope you will continue posting a video, at least once in awhile. It is understandable you need to focus on your new job. I know you will shine there too. I wish you only the best, Emily!

    Congratulations on your dream job! I’m a new subscriber but I’ve enjoy watching all types of your videos. Whatever you decide, I’ll keep watching! I especially enjoy watching your shopping videos. Even if you don’t buy something, you explaining and showing the retro stuff is gray!

    Congratulations on your new position 😊 I just want to say that I have really enjoyed your channel and your blog too. You are such an inspiration to me as I too love the same vintage style that you enjoy. I hope that you can post your holiday decor in your new home this year, especially Halloween and Christmas. I understand the time constraints going forward and you have to do what’s best for you. I will continue following you and best wishes!

    Congratulations! I definitely look forward to your videos every week, but I completely understand if a weekly video is not doable right now. I like both the simpler and complex videos, so either is good for me! Your videos are very relaxing for me. I like diy and thrifting videos. 😊❤

    I absolutely look forward to your videos!! I'm living in limbo at a friend's house after selling my house a year and a half ago, so I watch u on her TV and rarely comment, but I pulled out my phone today after watching u last night... I'm so happy for u! I was so, so scared that u were gonna cancel the rummage sale! I have a friend from Oakland, CA flying in and driving over with me and another friend from Milwaukee and we are driving over to Michigan for your rummage and then the Allegan flea market... I so look forward to meeting u--I look at u as a friend, but sometimes as a daughter figure too (even though I have a grown son and daughter, I have a lotta love in my heart!) Wishing only great things for u!! And I love your excitement about decorating a cubicle! 💛💛💛 oh... is the juicy news that u now have a boyfriend? I support u no matter what team u play for! As long as you're with someone who makes u happy, that's what matters! Either way, I'm an ally, but I just love love... #ally #loveislove #behappy
