I loved this video. I'm honestly so shocked that you have low self-esteem. When I watch your videos, I'm always in awe of your beauty and kind personality. It's so surprising to learn that the people you find most beautiful inside and out are the ones who have low views of themselves.
Well my self esteem is way better now haha! I'd say 90% of the time I fully love and accept myself :) I just have some off days now and then, but everyone does too
+Caitlin Shoemaker how did you improve your self esteem? I know that is big question that can't be answered simply...um but I thought I would ask it anyway ;)
Caitlyn, I feel you on the social problems growing up... I have always been that way and struggled to make deeper connections with people, but my problem is that I sincerely want those connections.
I subscribed to your channel not too long ago, and I LOVE your videos! Not only have you inspired me to live a healthier lifestyle, but you add positivity to my day. Keep being you, girl! Congrats on 50k!
I think I said "same" about a million times in this video. You seem like such an awesome person, it would be so cool to have friends like you in real life. Since I've become plant-based I've definitely felt a separation from others in my life. And, I, too have trust issues due to similar situations with friends like you've talked about. I'm hyper self-aware which leads to tons of self doubt & anxiety so thank you for touching on those points - it's good to know that there are other people like me out there!
Congratulations! Your videos are all quality content and very positive! 💚 We all appreciate it. I was wondering if you could make a video about nutrition, how you educated yourself about it, some useful resources etc. That would be so helpful! Thank you!
Thank you so much! Definitely check out Dr. Gregor, Dr. McDougal, and Bite Sized Vegan has some nutrition videos as well! OOOh and "Legit Nutrition Hawaii" on here, Lily is awesome :)
I definitely relate to having self esteem issues and growing up not having a bunch of friends. You talking about it reminds me that a lot of people go through the exact same situations and we can all overcome it together.
I know this video was a while ago however I'm so happy I watch it. We have a lot in common especially the part where friends turned their back on you and said horrible things. Which to some would not be that big a deal but if you only have a couple friends and they do that it really is hard. ☺️ I'm really glad I found your channel! You have encouraged me so much as I have changed my eating to be plant based. Thanks so much for taking the time to make videos!❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations! Thank you for sharing. I was always more of a book reader than a joiner throughout school. Some social situations still make me shrink into the background.
TREVOR HALL! Lime Tree was my jam in 2009! Thank you so much for being vulnerable and sharing bits of yourself. I struggle with self confidence myself, and also have a very small friend group. I'm getting better at loving myself (I'm glad you are too!) but I think having such a limited friend group still affects my confidence. Working on it! Your videos are a ray of sunshine! Congratulations!
Yay! Congrats on 50k! I just discovered your videos, and you are just so warm and inspiring. I'll be starting grad school in a couple of weeks myself, and I'm so happy to see just how easy it can be to maintain a healthy vegan lifestyle! :D
Thanks for sharing, Caitlin! You are so sweet, and I appreciate you opening up, sharing your life with us, and showing us that social media is not real life. Definitely needed these days. :) Oh also, when you mentioned wearing black, white, stripes, and the occasional maroon or green I was like "SAAAAAAME."
In my opinion, the reasons you have 50,000 subscribers and counting are, but are not limited to: ...you're positive (even when you're discussing something negative, you're intentions are to push towards a positive resolve); you're sincere; you're vlogs are interesting and informative; and you're charismatic, and just plain talented! I started a high carb vegan diet to improve my cycling and fitness, and this is how I happened upon one of your videos...I was hooked and subscribed then and there! I continue to follow you regularly because I find the info useful and I love to see what you're up to. I find you're mannerisms to be endearing and adorable; and you're personality along with you're good looks make you extremely attractive. Regarding fact #47, I wish you the best of luck finding someone who is as extraordinary as you.
I'm super impressed that this video is only 6 minutes haha. Great job on 50k! You earned it! It's sadly normal for even the most beautiful people in the world to have low self-esteem, but just know that you are beautiful both inside and out! Also, band geeks unite! I play flute :)
We have the same sense of style Caitlin! & I also do not have many close friends which may be related to trust... Congrats on the 50k subscribers! You seem like such an awesome person I'd love to meet you someday 💕
This is super late, but it's so rad that you studied abroad in Argentina, I did the same thing but in Chile for 6 months!! Such an amazing experience x
You're the first person's channel I found when I started researching being vegan. You're absolutely wonderful, so positive & have really been a great role model. Thank you so much!
Caitlin you are such a sweetie! Thanks for sharing, I can relate to the high school/friend situation and think you are so positive and lovely and those people definitely didn't need to be in your life! xx
I struggle with my self esteem too. I'm 18 and still have a long way to go but I know one day ill learn to love myself and I'm hoping you do as well (:
Well basically one semester in school I was soooo busy that I literally did NOT have time to procrastinate...I would wake up early and go to bed late 7 days a week just to study lol. From that I basically reprogrammed myself into getting stuff done as soon as I needed to haha
You are just darling... your parents are very proud, I'm sure! I very much enjoy your videos and have learned a lot from you. I'm 56 and just went vegan in June. Can't believe it took me this long to find out about the animals! Now just seeing the meat, milk, and egg departments in the grocery store turns my stomach. I haven't had any trouble at all letting go of animal products in my diet: but I do feel guilt about all the very expensive designer handbags and shoes I have...leather, of course. But thank God I know now... I purchased your ebook and love the smoothies! Thank you for all you do to help the world... I hope you keep it up for a long time!
I know your channel is about food mainly (which I love!!) but could you make a video about physical therapy? I'm doing my prereqs right now, and I don't know anyone doing what I'm doing :( kind of feels lonely.
This is an old video, but I think u r just precious! I also am an introvert with trust and self esteem issues so I feel I totally relate to u. As always I inspire me to b more health and environment conscious!!!!
We have so much in common! I was incredibly shy when I was younger and spent my life reading books. I always thought my good memory had something to do with that. I also went to an all-girls private high school!
I work in the service industry too and 100% agree with you that everyone should try it out. Also, Its hard trying to slowly go vegan being around a bunch of meat eaters (i haven't had any in 5 days!) Which to me is an amazing accomplishment. I know this journey will be difficult but its nice to come to your channel for inspiration along my journey!
omg I'm from Buenos Aires! So cool that you came here! Where exactly did you stay? I love your videos and you seem like such a kind hearted person! Congrats for 50k! Un beso grande desde Argentina
Hi!! i discovered your channel a few months ago, and i am i glad i did because i love it! We have quite a few things in common and this is so nice because it doen't make me feel more wierd than usual. :) keep up the good work! kisses from Italyyyy :D
ahhh loved this. grats on 50k! surprised we actually have like more than like 1 thing in common lol. i was pretty much the same with clarinet, soccer, friends/popularity, and like all the school related ones. #hatehistoryclass
ahhh congrats!!!!!! 💕💕 and I love this bc I relate to these things too and omg I also used to be terrified of mascots when I was younger, especially chucky cheese! Once my dad took me to chucky cheese and had me MEET they guy who dressed up in the costume 😂😂 I was fine until he put it on and I started BAWLING lmao 😂😂😂😂 (I was still pretty young)
Congrats on 50K!!! I found your channel after your High Carb Hannah shoutout! 😊 You should make videos about your experience travelling abroad and how you were raised vegetarian (if you haven't already)!! 😃😃😃
Thank you Steph! Have you ever tried putting a roasted japanese sweet potato in the freezer for like 20ish minutes before you eat it? Life. Changing. (I top mine with a little cinnamon and it's bombbbb)
I'm not vegan, but I love watching vegan content :) and I just had to subscribe to your channel because you're so upbeat and positive and easy to put a person in a good mood!
I am reading the comments and I am surprised that no one told this girl that she is also beautiful :) Hi Caitlin,I am new to the vegan lifestyle and to your channel.I also thing you are doing a nice job and you are authentic! Keep up the good work.
Caitlin, you're my favourite vegan youtuber at the moment. I would love to see 'what i eat in a day' every single day!
I agree I would love to see that as well!💜
I loved this video. I'm honestly so shocked that you have low self-esteem. When I watch your videos, I'm always in awe of your beauty and kind personality. It's so surprising to learn that the people you find most beautiful inside and out are the ones who have low views of themselves.

Thank you Eveline! How neat :)
I love how you included fun/happy facts along with more personal, real ones, honestly this is why you're my favorite!

Also, thank you for introducing us to Trevor Hall, his music is so relaxing ahhh
I've recently switched back to a vegan diet and your channel has been very helpful! Love it & you!

We have so much in common! I was incredibly shy when I was younger and spent my life reading books. I always thought my good memory had something to do with that. I also went to an all-girls private high school!
Your channel is such a breath of fresh air from all the hate that happens on TH-cam.
Keep it up girly!! :)
