    As an Israeli, I respect you SO much for your answer about the situation in Gaza. It’s highly appreciated that you say you are educating yourself instead of answering what you think people want to hear. Truly, THANK YOU.

    This autumn/winter I started ice cold showers for a minute at the end of my normal hot shower. I know the dopamine hit is 250% (equivalent to cocaine high, thanks Huberman) but I have noticed no winter blues, and a much greater mood for the rest of the day. Something to ponder on ❤

      Do you turn it back to hot water or do you just get out after?

    • @sairahsultan8028
      @sairahsultan8028 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      @@shannonsmith7618 Straight out after. When you get out after a minute, your feeling buzzed and the room generally feels warmer because your 'internal thermostat' has shifted from the cold shower. I found if I stayed in the cold more than 2 minutes I would need to warm up but a minute is just enough for the adrenaline/dopamine release and feeling amazing getting out x

      I love cold plunges and cold showers. In the summer I put ice in the bath tub and emerge myself in it.

    2023 word: dread
    I’ve experienced more existential dread this year than ever before. It started to feel like I wasn’t able to be present at all because I was so tied up in my head. I’m going into 2024 ready to shed those layers of fear and disappointment.

    My 2023 in one word: Suprising.
    I did more than what I had planned in 2023. Travelled to two countries, met new people and built new friendships. I have also completed a few goals that I am proud of.
    My 2024 in one word: START.
    I too am turning 30 this year (woop woop) and even though I am excited for this new decade I feel like I want to start planting new seeds that will help me in the future. I have already sowing some now, I just need to take care of the plants and see where they take me. 2023 gave me a taste of what my 30s could look like and I am truly excited for it. Parts of my 20s were rough so I hope I can learn to let go of the pain and just move on.
    My only goal for 2024 is to put in more time into my mental health so I can learn to move on and let go of the pain. Been in therapy for a while and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, I just need to get there.
    Cheers to 2024 yall! Also I truly thank you Kalyn for being vulnerable. I wish you a better 2024!

    I usually don’t comment but I’ve been watching you for at least 10 years now, and I just wanted to take the time to say that it continues to amaze me how smart and insightful you are, at such a young age. I myself am not very old, a 25 year old from Israel, and during these hard times it’s really difficult to watch so many of your favorite influencers jump to conclusions so fast and forget how misleading the media can be. I feel like you can only learn about the Middle East conflict to certain amount without actually living here and experiencing life here by yourself. But nonetheless it’s always good to try to understand and learn more, and I appreciate you so much not choosing sides without knowing enough, it’s too easy to do it these days so it says so much about you. Thank you for the video and thank you for constantly being here❤❤❤

    In January it's easy to feel overwhelmed and anxious because after every high you have to come down. But I remind myself that winter is the time for rest and hibernation. To me the "true" new year is the start of spring. The earth wakes up again in the, plants come back to life, wildlife come out of hibernation. It's okay to take the winter months slow and lean into the "bleh" feeling because brighter days are coming (literally). ❤

    Another lovely Kalyn Coffee Talk! :-)
    I turn 30 this March. Even though everyone teases me about reaching an "old" age, I feel like I am getting a better grasp on who I am as a person. I care more about how I am feeling and how to take better care of myself. (People pleaser here, LOL.) My goals for this year are focusing on growing my garden, reading more books, taking more pictures, and I plan to start my podcast centered on books and reading. I'm also trying to save up for a harp this year - a long wished for childhood dream. It'll take a while, but I will get there! I hope everyone has a wonderful 2024 year!

    2024: turning 30 in a few weeks and welcoming my first baby end of February. She is coming early due to my high risk pregnancy. She is a miracle and a blessing ❤ 2024 is going to be a new chapter of life and I’m so excited! ❤

    Boundaries is definitely the word of 2023 for me. My phrase for 2024 is "Lean in". I cut a lot of toxic ties last year, and started to protect my energy and time. This year my plan is to lean into my life more. Do the things that actually bring me joy, and get those big projects underway! I don't want to get caught up in drama or other peoples' happiness. Focus and lean into my happiness! Cheers to 2024!

    My 2023 was heavy. It was a hard, hard year. I returned from maternity leave January 2nd. We were displaced while our home was treated for lead and had to detox our boys. My business lost our space with very little notice and we had to quickly purchase, renovate and move into a new space. My oldest was in evaluations for autism spectrum disorders.
    My word for 2024 is connection; to the universe, to my children, to my loved ones and most importantly to myself and who I am at my core.
    I truly value you and your content and just know we would be the best of friends if we knew one another in “real” life! Thank you for this chat✨

    I just turned 30 last month. Yesterday was the one month anniversary (haha)! I know a lot of people panic when they turn 30 as we grew up with societal expectations of what you should be doing at that age and what you shouldn't be. But, I felt a sense of peace. Knowing that I grew so much in the last decade and am better equipped going into the next one.
    That being said, I have my days, like yesterday where I panic about how life has presented me with certain obstacles that have slowed down my progress toward my personal goals. In those moments, I remind myself that I will persist - watching one coffee talk at at time! I too have been enjoying a slow and restful winter, compared to previous years. I found myself healthier and less stressed at the beginning of this year too as I didn't give into the pressure to go at 200% because it was January 1st and rather create goals for the year that I introduce in phases by quarter 😊

    I have been a Kalyn viewer since I was 20 years old, hearing how Kalyn described herself this time last year and the power she has claim over the years, I realised that the reason I know how to look after myself and pull myself out of ruts and dark periods is because I have watched her do it, time and time again
    thank you Kalyn for leading by example

    🙏 love hearing people admit that they probably don't understand all about every issue but are learning (ex Gaza, which me too).
    I've definitely been outspoken on issues that I thought I understood fully but realized later I was only exposed to/consumed specific perspectives. Now I try not to let good intentions + limited knowledge let me be super opinionated lol

  • @catherineosullivan6208
    @catherineosullivan6208 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I find your videos so grounding ! Lots of themes that I have been thinking so much about. I love the way you see new year not as ‘ready set go’ on 1 January but as a progression out of winter. Definitely how I see it too. It’s a really nice time for reflection and inspiration but it doesn’t help to put tons of pressure on yourself 🤍
    Also the question about how to live in a world with so much suffering and sadness. Been thinking about this a lot. I’m 23 and the past few years I have learned a lot about myself and the world, although there is still so much to learn. Going to continue learning and acting in my sphere of control, and hopefully widen that sphere of control through a meaningful and impactful career. I’m in psychology, and interested in how our individual and collective struggles relate. Interested in understanding humans better so that we can live and communicate better. 🕊️
    Thank you for not ignoring the question on Gaza. It’s not easy as it’s a polarised topic in some places. But for me it’s simple - I refuse to allow the mass murder of children and families to be normalised (although sadly this is not the first time there has been high civilian casualties in a conflict). I’m fed up with a global politics that has no reverence for human life. Violence is a lazy solution to problems and I hope in my lifetime I see a turning point where humanity upgrades the way we relate internationally. 🕊️

    I didn’t have a word for 2023 originally. But it ended up being the most spiritually revolutionary and difficult year. Nothing like life threatening (or threatening your babies’) incidents to wake you up from the daze of focusing on the wrong crap.
    2024 will be excepting my feminine + cancer energy that I’ve spent my whole life running from.

    I enjoyed this Coffee Talk so much! I know you said we can disagree with anything you said but I couldn't have agreed more with everything you said. Turning 30 was so uneventful for me. It was in the midst of the pandemic, so I couldn't even celebrate. People keep teasing me up until today that I'm old now but I feel the best I've ever felt in my life. I honestly couldn't care less 😄

    2024 word : renouveau. I'm cheating a bit and putting a french word, basically a new beginning. I hope to change jobs, I hope to finalize my immigration process. I will have new experiences. I feel like things are inevitably going to change, they already have but they will even more.

      @@KalynsCoffeeTalk thank you Kalyn 💚 I'm still very sad, but time and allowing myself to feel whatever I'm feeling and taking things at a slower pace have helped. And even if it hurts, there's some good stuff I gain from her loss : realizing that life can be shorter than expected makes me want to live it more fully, to procrastinate less and to really pay attention to the things that matter. For the first time this year I have made holiday cards and sent them to my family and friends in France and seeing them happy to get that little card makes me want to do more for the ones I love, even from afar and I do believe that it's something my mom passed down to me. And I know that wherever she is, she is proud of me and my siblings. I feel like a butterfly about to come out of its cocoon, last year was honestly the most challenging of my life but at the same time, I know it can only get better and I'm looking forward to it.

    I was so happy to see you included the question on Gaza until I saw your response. Saying you are learning and donating (not saying to where) while not condemning genocide and violence against innocent civilians screams of being more afraid of saying something wrong than the actual atrocities being committed. An ally so dedicated to not saying anything wrong that they barely say anything is getting us nowhere. I felt it during BLM in 2020 as well, where you didn’t speak up much on your platforms. It made it too hard for me to follow you, and it made this space that I felt safe in suddenly become a space I was not welcome to. Taking no stance is a stance and it’s a privileged one at that. People are dying while you stay student and don’t even speak up for them. Hospitals and schools and homes and religious sites have been bombed. Over 20,000 people are dead. War crimes that violate international law are being committed left and right. I hope at this point you’ve actually spoken up about this somewhere on your platforms. I don’t know how much time you’ll need to “learn” or what else you’d need to see from the countless evidence online before you feel comfortable enough to speak up but, it’s not too late for those still alive. Fear of being divisive and controversial begs the question, who and what are you afraid of losing? It begs the question, what are you gaining and losing in not speaking out? And it begs the question what are others losing and gaining from you saying nothing? Truly wish you’d change on this cause it’s inactions like this that make other people feel okay with doing the same. And the oppressed are left to speak up and fight for change without basic support. Idk if you’ll ever see this but, I hope you do and I hope it helps push you to keep learning while taking more action (cause donating and not even saying where you donated to or leaving the resources/educators/educational tools you’re using for others is nowhere near enough.)

  • @Aethelion
    @Aethelion 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    100+ days of genocide doesn't require much learning, it requires action. You've had plenty of time to decide where you stand, and even if it's not on the side of Palestinians, where it should be, you've had plenty of time to decide. You have a platform, massive privilege, and your influence can make an impact. So many people are dying and being displaced, so many women and children dying and starving. With so little effort you can influence helping people. I already felt your passiveness with anti racism, this is too far. I'm not watching this channel anymore, please consider using your influence for good moving forward
