My journey of slowing down & embracing the simple joys that make life beautiful.
Each week I take you along on my journey of learning how to slow down, live in rhythm with nature, love through cancer, and embrace the simple joys that make life magical.
Welcome, I am Rachel O'Bare and I live in a tiny mountain town in Colorado at 8440ft. I moved here at the start of the pandemic (March 2020) when I was quarantined with my husband Kyle after three months of dating. After just one year of dating, Kyle was diagnosed with brain cancer for the third time. This past four years has been about learning how to slow down even more, find optimism in struggle, love through cancer, and learn how to cultivate calm.
I am excited to share this journey of life with you. Shining light on the simple things that make life beautiful, and finding light in the darkness.

Brain Cancer Can't Dim My Husband's LIGHT
My philosophy is do what you can. I tend to over think stuff and that raises my anxiety level. Take each moment and concentrate on the one thing for that day. You will get things done.
You’re such a great, kind, caring, genuine and intentional soul. You are a gift to all. As Always, Sending an Abundance of Love, Strength, Peace, Support and Positive Thoughts to BOTH of You. ♥️✨🕊️🎗️🫶🏻💫 ***super random, have you ever sketched a tattoo for someone (paid of course)? I noticed your beautiful artwork in the beginning and instantly thought, “if it’s something enjoyable, calming for her, I’d love for her to sketch out my next tattoo!” If you’re ever interested please lmk.
As a fellow master procrastinator, I can relate. When I finally get something done, I realize I spent much more time fretting about it than it took to do it.
Awesome Video!!!! I had to change the title of my "to do" list to "maybe" list!!!! It reduce my stress!!! I would spread it out to a week (7 days) instead of a daily one!!!! Beautiful green ottoman!!!! Great Shelves!!! God Bless!!!!
Giddy Up Go … Great job!
Thank you thank you 🤗🤗
I too work so much better under pressure. I leave Saturday on a 9 days cruise. Not one stitch of packing done. Just now finishing laundry. Tomorrow I’ll make a list of what I’m taking and I’ll pack Friday. No problem. 🤣😂 I love what you’ve done. Love your sweet home and your style. You are doing great.
Oh my gosh I am the exact same way you got this and have the most amazing trip!!
@@SimplyRachelOBare thank you so much.
Beautiful . what is this music Rachel ?
Very creative and very impressive! You go girl❤
🥹🤗 thank you so much! Feeling proud of myself I must say
Loved this!!! You go girlie❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much! Feeling pretty accomplished 🥰
Hi! where do you shop? you always have the most beautiful clothing!
Ahh that’s so sweet of you! I try to buy most things secondhand and if it’s new I buy from small and ideal woman owned companies. I’ve been loving Studio Ora (my dear friend) Sondarhaus and Linenfox
@@SimplyRachelOBare ah! Thank you!
Your so so welcome!
I totally get the ADHD crunch time productivity. You slayed it! I love the shelves and ottoman ❤
You truly cannot understand unless your a fellow adhd human the pressure is key to get things done!
@@SimplyRachelOBare And good in a crisis too! The hyper focus is real.
@@TheQueensWish 100% I can do hard things but easy task like dishes and laundry no way it’s like climbing Mount Everest
That's what procrastination is! 🤙You work really hard when there's pressure! I love you so much, it really baffles me... I love you I love you I love you! Not really, Iim the same way, just not nearly as bad!
Or adhd 😂 I love you big my love!!!
Dang Rachel you are so impressive. Running those power tools!!! AND look what you accomplished❣️❣️ so impressive. Remember to take care of yourself though. Kyle will need your strength after surgery and you will be exhausted. Prayers of strength to you both🙏🏼🙏🏼 God bless you all❤
Awh thank you!! It feels so good to use power tools you really feel powerful! Also slightly terrifying 😂 thank you for the love and kind reminders!!
You thrive with a deadline … ??? I think you are just addicted to your own adrenaline !!!
It’s actually what many who have ADHD experience. We need that pressure to stay focused and motivated.
Just watching you made me tired. Please don't overdo it. You need all the strength for Kyle and you. Whatever you get done I'm sure everything will look beautiful. As you know I send all my prayers to you and Kyle and your families.
Thank you for your gentle reminders and kind words 🥰🥰
Im impressed with your skills and creativety ! Think, I might be wrong, guess thats what give you strengh and peace at the same time. Dont gorget to take care of your self ! You matter !!! Hugsss 😘😘
Thank you 🥹 yes it’s wild how different a neurodivergent brain works!
I love these videos! They Pop up at the perfect time! ❤🙏🏻Praying for you and Kyle! And that surgery goes well! Can’t wait for y’all to come home and heal and get much needed rest! Dang girl, you are a carpenter too! I love it! ❤️🙏🏻🥰
😂😂 I didn’t know I was a carpenter either! Fun thing about life is always being able to learn, Kyle has taught me a lot since we started dating but since he isn’t really able to use those tools I’ve had to practice what I’ve seen and learned!!
Rachel, you are one of those RARE people who live your life not even knowing how you light up a room! I'm impressed ... you are a jack of all trades and I totally understand why you feel that your chores need to be done as soon as possible. In between, don't forget to take other precious moments with your husband, especially like that wonderful picnic you guys shared down at that pretty lake. Your videos help me too as I feel more grounded after listening to your words of wisdom. Sending more hugs to you guys from across the Pacific Ocean in Australia.🦘🐨🌏
🥹🥹 this is truly the kindest message and touches my heart so deeply! I am so glad you’ve found your way to my videos and I’m so honored 🤍 we are taking that picnic suggestion and running it with this weekend and cannot wait yo share pieces of it with you 🤗
Great progress 👍👍👍prayers continue for you both 🙏🙏🙏🕊🕊😇
Thank you thank you 😊 🤍
I need some of your energy, Rachel. Love how the ottoman turned out!
Girl I’ll share it I’m buzzing 😂 and thank you! I am pretty pleased with it!!
Sounds like your nesting instinct is kicking in! Awaiting the birth of a new Kyle!
Oh my gosh 🥹🥹 I love this!!
@@SimplyRachelOBare I thought you might!
LOL. I work a lot better when I have short deadlines. Usually deadline I do not set for myself! Like filling donation boxes on the last day before the donation pickup day! you are fortunate to have a great helper, I dont'.
I completely understand that I always drop my ballots the last day even when I have had them done for weeks 🤦🏻♀️
A little bit of nervous stress does seem to kick one into high gear too. Just try not to wear yourself out!!❤❤❤
@@sineriafrankenstein7316 it absolutely does and I guess it’s a way to have control in a situation when you only have so much control. Trying to remind myself to also rest, that’s hard though!
Praying for his surgery to go well. 🙏
Thank you so much ☺️
I am so happy for you guys! Best news ever, get ready to witness your miracle 🙌🏻🙏🏻
Rachel & Kyle that's wonderful news ❤
Sedona is so beautiful. There is a chapel built on top of one of the peaks. You can’t miss it. There is a road to get up to the chapel and you can go inside. Also the view looking over a Sedona is magnificent. Enjoy and Gods blessings on the surgery. 🙏🏽. ❤️ Jeri from Washington State.
Isn’t it Barrow in Phoenix?
Yes it is but they do there surgeries out of the hospital in Scottsdale
I’m so glad both families will be there for You mainly!! You will need the support!! ❤ a very scary but also very hopeful time!! I will be praying for both you and Kyle!!
🙏🏼❤️🙌🏼❤️😇
Beautiful home
Find my iPhone or AirTags would be handy.
Yes sadly Kyle doesn’t have an iPhone but we have set up a location sharing app!
Keep in mind that Jesus loves you, that is a fact!!!! Each and every one of us will pass from this life into the next. The question is where do we go from here? Jesus says that he has prepared a place for us and all we have to do is accept his gift of salvation. Salvation is only obtainable through Jesus, ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and ask him to dwell in your heart and save you from hell. Then you can be assured you have a home in Heaven for all eternity with a glorified body, no more pain and suffering. When a person dies unsaved not only dies pysically they also die a second death, a spiritual death forever seperated from Jesus and Heaven. Please accept Christ before its to late as none of us are promised tomorrow. Eternity is only a step away, i know this is a scary thought but its true. You never know when your time is out. I love you all and wanna see you all in heaven. 🙏
Prayers for healing. God please put your hands on the surgeon during surgery. You are so strong and you both have such strength and love.❤
Oh Rachel and Kyle I’m so happy for you . Wonderful news . Thinking of you both . Sending my love and best wishes ❤❤❤
I way to often feel the same way. recently a friend and fellow caregiver started talking on UA-cam about what we are going through. We don't always have solutions but the act of talking to someone else who is also struggling actually makes me so much more patient every day. Even therapy is tough because sticking to an appointment is tough as a caregiver. Someone told me there are online groups out there that you can join and comment as you have time. That might be a great place to reach out to. I met a caregiver that told me that he would sit in a crowded room and feel so alone because no one gets it. So I can not say enough at how much better I personally feel just talking to another person who really gets what we are going through.
All the best Kyle with your operation god bless you both xx
Rachel, the way you approach this is so beautiful. I personally always learn something about myself when I listen to your words. Sending all the love and positivity to you and Kyle. What an incredible opportunity ❤️
Sweet Rachel … I have been following your channel for only a short period of time. I read the entire story of you and Kyle; how my heart filled with tremendous emotion. I pray that the upcoming surgery will be 100% successful allowing you and Kyle to live a long, happy life together. Sending much love from Canada 🇨🇦.
CarT is being done in Ohio. Ohio State The James is a renowned cancer facility. We just had a friend go through Car-T Last month. Her attitude is also overwhelmingly positive. You need to feed off his positivity and desires. This video unfortunately was about you. I didn’t hear much of his desires and wishes. It would be great to hear his voice and true feelings. The next step should be all about him, he cant take steps to please those around him. Give him the chance to lead the course of treatment. Many choose to live without treatments that possibly (most likely) affect daily life. Focus on living his best life.
Sending much love and prayers to you both ❤
Can you turn location tracking on on his phone?
a 78'er? I wish him all the best on his birthday, to come soon and the ones in the future you've got this🤞 your calm energy will be a big help, to much stress is bad for most everything in ones body but Kyle, you can even make me feel calm when I hear you talk and I live with c ptsd for 30 years, and never feel calm, but when you speak, I do 😉 greetings from Denmark
Oh boy! It’s happening and it feels so good. Wishing you peace and calm as you ready for this new life offer.
So happy for you and Kyle. This has been a long time coming and it is wonderful that you will have so much love and support from your families. I have marked the 12th on my calendar and I will be praying for a positive outcome and smooth sailing through the surgery. ❤
Philippians 4:7 "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."🙏
Hope goes well, do you trust doctors? I have a hard time doing so.
Wow she told us every dramatic detail 😮
My prayers are with yall but this may sound selfish but I just found your channel a few weeks ago and now I wish I wouldn't have cause now I wish would have found it after the surgery and would not have to sit on pins and needles for the next few weeks Lol love you guys and saying so many heart felt prayers that everything goes great
I live in Phoenix … you will love Sedona … breathtaking beauty … rejuvenation … holistic spirituality and energy. I recommend staying the two days during the week and avoid the weekend if possible. Sending love and light … Gods glory is everywhere ❤️❤️
