- Hello friends,
It's been a while, and it feels so good to be posting on here again! I've genuinely missed the art of content creation, and I've had a recent realization that if I don't start filming and doing what I love, I might never find the time.
I understand how challenging it can be to juggle your passions, relationships, and even your well-being when life gets crazy - especially with a demanding job. That's why I want this vlog to serve as a gentle reminder to everyone out there facing work-related struggles: it's crucial to carve out time for yourself, your hobbies, and your happiness ♥️ Thank you for your patience and I hope you enjoy this vlog!
Sending you all the love and positive vibes ~
xx,
Julia

Don’t worry, we don’t mind if you’re not dressed up or if your apartment isn’t neat. We are just happy to see you! 😊 It’s sweet that you vlog for us even when you aren’t in the mood.
this comment made my day 😭 thank you for your kind words ❤️
I agree completely.
I work in tech too and I work ALL THE TIME. Taking Saturday not to do anything but I'll have to work Sunday just to have a "normal" week. Also tip for cleaning the microwave... microwave some vinegar for like 2-3 minutes and let it sit for a bit and then wipe everything off with a paper towel. Super easy and cleans all the grease and cooked on splatters.
glad she showed the reality of work and home life and didn't sugar coat it like some folks do.
I'm sorry you are experiencing a bit of a rough patch. My mom always told me to be sure to reward yourself once a week (which gives you something to look forward to). Doesnt have to be major...a new makeup item, your favorite pastry, a thrifted sweater, etc. Just pick a day, pick a reward, and appreciate yourself for your hard work.
this is such a nice gentle reminder
You don’t even have to cut and edit the vlog Julia we would watch that 6 hours of footage with so much joy!
Thank you for your honesty. It is very important for people to see the reality of careers they are interested in pursuing. We can make better decisions about career goals,opportunities, education, quality of life,etc when we see the real day to day circumstances. I am proud of your hard work. Remember to put your health and your long term goals first.
Thanks for putting out a vlog that shows what's really going on. It's nice to see the put together side of course, but that's not reality for anyone all of the time. Hope things get calmer for you soon
Social media truly can be a highlight reels at times 😢 thank you for watching! 🫶
This is actually one of my favorite videos of yours, Julia! It can be so comforting to see people you look up to and admire on the internet be real about such normal struggles. It's a great reminder that no matter where we are in life or however much money we have in our bank accounts, we all struggle with similar things. The human experience is kinda just like that! This has been encouraging to me today :)
Really enjoyed seeing the hustle side of your life too, with its ups and downs. Makes me appreciate what I have and remember that everyone has tough days, regardless of whether they are working in a cool workplace or doing some regular work (etc. in a store or smth). Keep it up and all the strength and stamina to you, Julia!
I love this. Raw and authentic is true, and esp how you mentioned that tech life isn't all always beautiful. The stressful periods are really stressful and the easy times are really easy, just like every other job. Been through stressful times at my IT testing job and it was not fun... i do not like being messaged in the middle of the night or OT ><
You're doing great and i hope work doesn't dampen your mood for too long ❤❤
Hope work gets better for you as well!! We got this ❤
I love these types of vlogs! Love how you show your work day and what you actually do each day as a full time employee. Would love to see more in the future! Love you Julia!
Will definitely try to make more in the future! 🫰
These are the types of vlogs I enjoy as it shows me I'm not the only one who is "stuck at her computer" for a lot of the time and that it isn't all exciting "working from home" when you're a virtual worker (I'm more in the VA type of realm of work)
Aww Julia I loved this video, really. Working in tech is not as glamorous as people think and I'm glad you got to show us the real struggles, real normal working people have to face everyday. Keep up the good work, your videos are always so conforting. Also, I freaking loved your office outfit! Soo casual and pretty!♥
Hang in there, Julia. I can totally relate. I always say the most annoying and stressful thing about work is the people I work with. you said that yours are amazing but pinging constantly is not amazing.
I loved this vlog Julia. So raw and authentic
thank you for watching 🥹💕
thank you for your transparency - it’s so refreshing. i wish you luck with work, and thank you for sharing! lovely as always
Thanks for sharing this video! In a sense, I really relate to this one. We are the same age and recently I've been feeling a lot like this at work. While I don't work in tech, but my current job is also one of those often glamorized. Work can be stressful and sometimes I'm so close to calling it quits lol. I need to keep reminding myself to find the balance between being grateful (that I have a job in this economy) and knowing my limits and what I value in life.
I hope things get better soon for you. Stay healthy always!
Oh Julia, thank you for your kindness in sharing your days with us, even on your not-so-good days. That's why I like to watch you because you inspire me a lot to be a better person even on the days when I don't feel so good.
Just before the scene where you sat on the couch to eat sushi I said to myself: ''Julia, how are you so hardworking, dedicated and still maintain an active social life as you do?! I would like to be your friend to learn to be like that, it inspires me!''. And soon after you appeared lying down with ''exhausted'' written on the screen... I immediately had the feeling that really, you can do all this but you feel anxious and tired. So try to get some rest, okay? Work is not everything in the world, take care of yourself dear =)
i'm calling dibs on Josh as favorite coworker
loved this raw and honest week in the life vlog Julia! some days are just a shit show with demanding timelines, hope you're feeling better now
So good to hear from you, Julia. Appreciate you so much! 😊
Thank you for the lovely video Julia. I always love seeing your videos come into my feed. Lovely xxxx
Love this Julia. Thank you for all the work you put in, it doesn´t go unnoticed☺☺
Thanks for showing us the raw and real, This vlog reminded me of the tough times I had gone through last year. You are handling it with so much grace! also Josh is adorable and we all need a Josh in our life too !!
Thank you really for bringing more of a reality check on how life is not always so perfect, and needs to be
as soon that does vlogs myself, I appreciate it when ppl show more of the mess of their life, because my vlogs always aim to share that and knowing that people that can have a larger impact show them too is always a nice reminder
Hun, this is so relatable, I also work in tech as a data scientist and I love my job but hoboy it can be rough. But the times when things work, when you get an impossible job done, when you know that what you do makes SOMEone’s job that little easier to do … kind of makes up for those hard times and sleepless nights.
Really loved this vlog! I liked how raw it was. Hopefully your work gets less stressful soon ❤ have a good weekend :)
Love how you made this week in the life style video. Appreciate the honesty around your experience working in tech. I can definitely relate to the struggles you mentioned. It's not all sunshine and rainbows in the tech industry...
Terrific video, Julia! I appreciate anything that you put out. 👏
thank you for keeping it real, Julia! this video was so comforting ❤
really thankful when I find vlogs that are so much real and less romanticised
as someone who also does vlogs, that are a mess, I often find myself asking how they always make them look so good, while I am just a chaotic mess
Hi Julia! I never comment but this time I wanted to say that your videos are so calming and very well edited, I really like them! ❤
Your videos are always just sublime. Sorry for the hard work week. Cheers to a better next week😊
This was a great vlog to watch. Very relatable. Keep being real! Also, don’t let work stress you out too much. At the end of the day it’s just work. It’ll always be there tomorrow. Take care
Your vlog motivated me to tidy my room today haha. You're still way more put together than me in your busy week though!
I'm currently struggling with tons of work and self-doubt (learning coding atm). I hope you have better weeks ahead! :)
I’m your silent viewer and I loveee your videos!! So excited you’re back! :)
Thank you for the vlog. I’m going through a tough time myself with school and closer to being a new grad but it’ll get better with time
I truly get you. I am a digital marketing manager working from home and some days can be really tough. I think that exercise can help a lot, we can do it ❤
this vlog is just perfectly relatable. thank you for sharing!
So happy you’re back!
love the real kind if deal output here. missed your vlogs!
commitment is putting out content before she even had a chance to brush her hair
😅 it be like that sometimes
Girl! I feel you! I've gone beyond day 3+ hair before but don't tell anyone. LOL Love you and your content. Don't ever feel like stuff has to look "perfect" for us. We appreciate you just as you are and reality rarely looks "pretty" all the time. You do you and we get to enjoy it all. : )
The realest video ever 😭😭this is how I feel everyday
To be honest, I love this version of Julia more☺️
Thank you for sharing the real side of tech! I would love to dip a toe in content creation, but working in tech myself I have no idea how you find the time!
love your super realistic vlogs :) Your co-workers are super lovely too.
Love the authenticity!
Yep. My motto is "If it is good enough to use it is good enough to wash" 🥰
You are really a dose of inspiration for me Julia. Even though work is hectic you have uploaded a vlog because you are kind enough to think about us. You have got this and I hope you take care of your health❤
Ps: josh is the best coworker
y’all are truly the best 😭💕
Great video, Julia. Sounds like you are having a bit of a tough time so sending love. I get it completely. All part of the life roller coaster we call life lol. Anyway, loved the video and nobody is judging you if you’re not dressed up btw! Xxx
Take care Julia- busy times no doubt but you have to take care of yourself also.♥♥
I am currently a CS major and came across your videos, I really enjoy them! Please never stop making them! Also I am a huge stress eater as well so you are not alone haha
First time viewer. You're sooooo effing pretty. Subscribed.
always appreciate your authenticity
Nice classy blazer, parquet floors, brauer chairs, head board - all classy elegant sort of retro look. The screen notations help a lot clarify things. Another seemingly effortlessly choreographed video, you've got it down. Do you think you'll do tech always, or keep rising up the ladder to be a total manager or CFO? Will you retire early FIRE style? At least you're in NYC, what else can you do 🙂
Your ethics towards your job are comendable. Dedication and accountability you demonstrate is an inspiration for others. Reality of life is hard at times.. It is refreshing to see someone who is not pretending their life and situation is perfect . Love watching your vlogs. Take care of yourself.
I loved this vlog!!
I always appreciate how you blur the faces of the people in the background!
you got this!!! ❤
Yesss another upload ❤
❤
Hi everyone, Julia has just posted a video. Shall we gather here please
😂❤ Ty for the support!!
It’s always nice to watch your clogs! 🌸 Could you share a source on your curtains? Due to an HVAC unit etc., that length would be perfect for my apartment. Thank you!
As someone who works in tech and is also passionate about TH-cam, I truly understand what you're trying to say 💜 Work can be hard sometimes, you just have to take it one step at a time, and remember to not stress out much! Love your content btw💕
Yayyy a video🎉
Enjoyed this vlog. After you mentioned Netflix I was hoping you'd share what you were watching, and voila, a few seconds later I get my wish. Thanks, I'll probably check this one out... FWIW, I went back in time last week and watched "Healer" (Ji Chang Wook, Park Min Young) that I'd never seen. Totally recommend. Have a great weekend!
I watched healer a while back and loved it!! Maybe it’s time to rewatch 😏
Protect your peace!!! 90% of evenings you shouldn’t look at slack-that’s my rule ❤
this the girl who been changing the like button on Spotify
😂🤣
Just a little advice, try getting a microwave steam cover and you'll rarely have to clean your microwave. You'll need to clean the cover but it's way easier to clean than a microwave. It changed my life lol. I HATE cleaning microwaves.
Life is not a box of chocolates but you have a great life and are doing an awesome job of meeting your work responsibilities and carving time into your schedule for yourself. You got this 💪👏☕
Such an honest and nice video ❤
Love your video. Love your personality.
Your voice is so relaxing and soothing, you should start a podcast
I can relate to your video here. It's very face-paced, we are pushed to be able to adapt right away. Yes, I enjoy it but there's time where we all need to take a proper breath and rest. Have a good rest!!
Thank you for keeping it real (I sound so old saying that!) I hope work eases up some, take care ❤
I’m sure it will! Thank you ❤
thanks for sharing. I love the vlog.
Hope your weeks get less hectic soon! Did you ever watch yangzi’s lost you forever?
Yeap, totally relate to the hot desk frustration! hahahah People sitting on our favourite desks.. THA NERVE! Also, is Pedro The Sassy Co-worker Brazilian? I just think I've spotted a fellow one! I like to think that I can always spot Brazilians hahah Here's to less stressful days, Julia ☺️♥️ x
Thank you for sharing! Very insightful
Love this video, agree with the rest of the people who watch you, we don't care how your apartment looks like, just happy to see you
ty ily ❤
omg i use snowflake at work too!!
You're amazing! Nice video ❤
Thank you ❤
I fully agree with you about carving out time for our personal life no matter how demanding the job is. a small question. why not go to company to work in a cooperate environment with your colleague? it could feel much better to sometimes change your study or working environment, no matter the people or the places.
Please share the link of that knitted sweater you wore to your Pilates class!
Would love to hear about the tough conversations/things you had to deal with at work in a future video 🙏🏻
Josh is adorable! ❤
We don’t do hot desks, we have actual desks even though we are only required to come into office once a month, but, we had a few new hires who didn’t have desks yet and one of them sat at mine. I was so offended 🤣 like gaspppp how dare you
😂 I feel this comment so much
do you think the "work struggles" are more common nowadays with the mass tech layoffs, which means that the ones left have to take on the jobs of their former co-workers in addition to their own?
Fun day!😊❤
I can so relate to that🥲
Nice video!!! Thanks!!!
What's the title of the book? I liked the writing piece on the page you showed us!
Awesome views from your office!
you got this! :')
Thank you😭🫶
❤
Where is that pullover sweater from?
5:25 You're so right about the roaches. Even when the apt is spotless, they still come. 😂
Recent subscriber, happy to have stumbled upon your channel.
that's great
Where is your cable knit sweater from?
It’s from Darling Society!
Thank you for sharing ~
And best of luck to your job hunt~!!
May I ask if you use Macbook pro 16” for work?? :)
