I love how your boyfriend is so supportive of you and everything that you are trying to accomplish he is definitely a keeper it’s so amazing when we find our person in life I am so grateful to be married to my person
Deep breathes. I remember being so stressed by everything in my 20s. Now it is only big things. I am trying to work on my response to stress. Running definitely helps. If you have to walk part of your typical run or even a race, it is no big deal. It is better than forcing yourself and coming away injured, which will hinder your progress.
love this so much, and i appreciate you kind advice. the breathing was what helped me get through my entire half.. now i need to transcend that into my real life
Taylor for the love of all that is holy, none of us are praying for your downfall, let alone a self-imposed downfall - if you have to go to 1 or 2 videos a week while you study, that’s okay! If the podcast has to take a study holiday, that’s okay! Part of that constant anxiety and niggling self-doubt could just be having too many pots on the stove at once. Maybe you should consider going part-time on TH-cam for a few weeks.
congrats on finishing your half marathon and good luck on your exam! I hope you're finding balance with making content, studying, and caring for yourself
thank you so much sarah!! it was such a joy, i can't wait to share my experience! balance is key :')
You are one of the reasons I have decided to start running. I always wanted to. But I am overweight and I don't feel comfortable going outside. So my husband and I purchased a treadmill. I'm so excited to start!! I'm going for a 5 k, then 10 k, then half marathon and last is the marathon and that's on my bucket list.
i am crying reading this 🥺🥺🥺😭 i couldn’t be more excited for you right now!! you are going to enjoy every step of the process if you remember this feeling right now of love and motivation for yourself. take every day at a time.. i’m so proud of you
@@TaylorWoods thank you so much. I hope I will be able to lose weight and eventually run outside comfortably
Babe!! I haven't even finished this blog but I just wanted to tell you give yourself some grace! I have been very stressed out for the last two weeks and it has worked into my depression and I had a conversation with somebody today that I really needed to have and force myself to be productive so I feel little bit better. Vlogs are never boring! You are loved dear friend
I'm loving these Sunday vlogs because I can watch them while I catch up on packing Etsy orders and it's so nice to have a chill video on in the background.
Congrats Taylor!!! Such an amazing feat!!! I ran my 3rd half marathon last Saturday (an unofficial half) with my friend I do track with! We just took it at an easy, conversation pave through a trail that goes all the way around and through our city, and ended up running it in just about 1:50, not a PR, but it was so much fun exploring and just plodding along! I am beyond proud of you, running a half marathon is an incredible achievement!!! 🏃♀️❤️
That note from your family was just the sweetest thing ever 💖
Pitching Atlanta! Definitely completely different and new from Seattle! And, a lot sunnier....with lots of places to hike, coffee shops to go to, and near a major airport which makes travel super easy.
i would love to visit!!! i have also totally heard that airport is awesome
Hey- I was in the Portland race!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 It was small and beautiful (🙋♀️ first time in the Pacific Northwest) and everyone was INCREDIBLY nice. Likely better that you changed to a city race for your first half as the excitement and encouragement from this race was very different from what you’d get in a city. If you ever decide to give it a try, I do recommend it. I would absolutely run it again and I’ve not said that about my previous races.
This is such a good lesson because so many times we do things that don’t feel right because we said we were going to do it, but you are totally listening to your inner guide. I think the mental stuff is not talked about enough. ❤️
PS- Boston is pretty dang awesome!!! Would recommend 10/10.
My dog wanted Reese’s squeaky toy, too cute. I laughed at myself trying to reason with him by telling him the squeaky was in my iPad…..great video as always!
For sure, we will understand if you need to cut back on uploads while you’re finishing your CPT. It’s such an important investment in yourself - and your content going forward! Also, you just gotta do what you gotta do to manage your anxiety during this exciting/stressful time ❤️ ❤️
Here in Ireland we call “hair ties” bobbins. Don’t ask me why, we were born this way😂 also just wanted to say that I know you feel insecure about your skin but the fact that you’re not one of these TH-camrs who is drowning in foundation to look perfect makes you so much more human and relatable! So just wanted to thank you for being real ❤️
love you and appreciate you ❤️🥺
Was looking for this comment! I call them bobbles, from England, but have heard bobbins too!
For the French toast, add a dash of vanilla extra & cinnamon to the batter! Top with yogurt/berries if you want a little more protein😊 my go to summer breakfast.
oh yum!!! yes i am doing this tonight for dinner 😭😂😂
We would enjoy anything you post 😊 you’re killing it and relatable and it’s so nice to see the real side of things so we don’t feel so alone in the anxiety game. Good luck!!!
I saw your post after the race on Instagram and got so excited! I can't wait to watch your vlog! You are the best Taylor! 😁
Sounds like you are going to be super prepared for your exam and your race. I'm super excited for you! Good luck! You're going to kill it!
Girl if no one else gets you I do!!! My life has been studying nonstop and resting anxiety as welllll
A Spacey Kacey dance party is everything!
Taylor girl YOU DID THE DANG thing!!!! So proud of you for doing your half marathon girl! You killed it 🤗💜
In November I decided to do a half marathon (end of February) I canceled it first week of February because it went virtual and I started a new job position as a fitness trainer and wanted to focus on that, and avoid injury. Might try to do one in October! It sucks I was looking forward to it, but its probably for the best, now I have more time to prepare then 10 weeks LOL.
Get ready for spring, Taylor!❤️❤️❤️❤️
i am so so ready!
Just a quick tip, cut some ripe bananas in pieces and put those in the freezer. Avocados can be bought frozen in little portions, like mini cubes (very handy, you don't have to wait for those few hours that avocados are exactly good, not too soon neither too late 😜). And then there's a lot of other frozen fruit options. Use whatever combination of the above with cold milk and you won't have to put your smoothie in the freezer anymore ☺️
Tamara, great tip!
To make protein french toast taste good on its own:
-brioche is great to use but a bit higher in calories but whatever it tastes good. you also want the bread to be slightly stale
-add the teeniest amount (like 5g) of sugar/sweetener/syrup to the batter just to sweeten it up a tad
-add vanilla, cinnamon and a bit of nutmeg if you have it
-i usually dissolve my protein powder in a small bit of milk or water to make a slurry before adding it to the batter just to make sure it doesnt clump up
oh i love this!! LOVE! thank you! i’m recreating with this recipe tonight 😂😂
Good morning Taylor happy Sunday late morning and I just wanted to say that your vlogs is sooo good and you are sweetheart and you are amazing Supporter I'm proud of you gurl because every week I enjoy your channel because you are sweetheart
Try freezing the bananas! It will make it colder, and I personally like the thicker consistency!
🇬🇧hair tie = a bobble! I don’t know where the name came from.. Well done for finishing your race💛
Come to Carmel, IN! Or any of the suburbs of Indy (Hamilton County is great) Close to Indianapolis, but there is also so much to do locally :) Good luck with studying and everything coming up girl!
If you're looking for a great new city, I live in Richmond VA right now and I love it! I'm from WA originally and VA reminds me of WA a little because there's a lot of outdoor stuff to do, but definitely not as gloomy and drizzly as Seattle.
I did the same thing in signing up for a random half and then found a more interesting one that is a week before hahaha so I am doing to fun one first and that will be my real one and the random one right after will be just kind of for fun so it's not just you. You inspire me for my half that's coming up in a couple weeks to just go and have fun! Your half marathon journey was so fun to follow!!!! Also if you are thinking about moving... would recommend DC :)
i am so on board with this! just sad we can’t get refunds lol i am so so proud of you!! my sister lives in DC!!
I ran a 10 miler a few years back and I really wanted to document it for myself so every mile or so I took out my phone and took some pictures and videos (obvi not vlogging) but I totally recommend it! Even if your not gonna share it is just cool to have those pictures all these years later lol
I'm Australian and we would call that hair tie a 'Lackie' i guess it originated from an elastic band? We kinda shorten everything, even when it has evolved haha theyre obviously not elastic bands anymore, but still a Lackie to me!
Wow I’m Australian and I’ve never heard this before! I live in urban QLD for reference, I presume you’re based somewhere diff?
I used to work at a cafe that sold smoothies. We’ll call it Yamba Yack. Or Yuck.
The basic recipe was 2-2-1 using a big scoop and a little scoop. If you make a strawberry banana then you basically get about four strawberries because two fit in the big scoop, and about 3 banana slices then a scoop of soft ice chips. This gave a perfect strawberry to banana ratio. If you added peanutbutter then it was only about a teaspoon scoop. Definitely not a tablespoon. It really made me understand how much we overdo it in home smoothies 😅 I still overdo it sometimes and I tend to forget that less is more 💁🏼♀️
Anyone who wants a recipe ask, I either know it or can make an educated guess answer.
19:29 knock on Woods? that made me laugh😂
🥲😭😭 i love it hahahahaah
English rep here, hair tie = bobbles! Also, loving the green outfit 😀 My gym clothes are about 99% green in various shades so I’m probs just a tad biased 😅💚
That pink/purple sports bra is SO CUTE where is it from??
I feel like this may be similar to where you are now but Salt Lake City, UT is beautiful. I went a few months ago (I’m from MS) and now I want to move there myself!
I saw your Instagram post about the marathon! Congrats! 💚😆
Love this vlog..... hair bobble !!!!
NEW YORK BABYYYYYYYY! Move here. 180 everything LOL
and move next door to you !!
seeing a 40 minute video made me so happy!! i definitely relate to that constant anxious feeling of needing to be doing something or doing things better. life's too short to think this way but it's so hard to rewire our thinking. i hope it gets better
Try adding cinnamon to the French toast soak (like you always do for pancakes)!
YES!! oh genius i love this!!
Happy birthday to your beautiful dog. 🎉💕
thank you so so much!! she was so happy lol
Congratulations on doing your race.
thank you for always being so kind and supportive, i appreciate you endlessly

Ponytail holder

Hello Taylor, I'm Guilherme
Hair band 😎, pretty shit tbh lool
This is not a negative comment to you AT ALL! Love your channel and your content ❤️ but it really bothers me to see how common it is to buy packaged salad in America. All that unnecessary and single use plastic instead of chopping lettuce? Makes no sense to me
i actually 100% agree with you! i mentioned this in a past video how i felt so bad that this was something i chose to buy because i hadn’t been eating them at all. it bothers me too and i am contributing to it, so i am definitely to blame. it’s something i want to remove from my purchases moving forward and eliminate all that waste, but yes you’re totally right 💔
