Jen you do not need to tell anyone about your finances or where you live ! The audacity !. Loved your pet stories and walking in nature. Retired ! Ontario hiker with dog enjoying the simple things in life. Be yourself and dance like no one is watching. 🎶🎶💃💃🥰🥰🐶🐶
I don't mind being transparent about how much the channel is making as I always said I'd share that information, just need a full month to give a good picture!
Listen. I don't need to know what you make on you tube. I don't want you to force yourself into a label. Watching you live a normal life with the ups and downs of life is nice. I don't watch just for the content. There are a lot of people doing you tube and their character and life circumstances keep me watching. I don't need to watch a computer I need a honest sincere empathetic person who loves animals and the world. I'm 6 years older than you and you know maturity makes us read others. It's the time that I don't need drama but am so thankful to see positive people like you. ❤❤
I totally agree. No need to tell us where you live or how much you make! Just happy for you that you're making a good solo life for yourself and sharing it with us❤
Jen, your vlogs are among the most encouraging, positive, practical AND magical on UA-cam. I'm grateful you're here, and thank you for the tour of your beautiful homeland!
On a personal note… Canada, overall is absolutely beautiful. My father was born there. The first trip, my husband I took was to Vancouver Island, and we went to Butchart Gardens. Absolutely beautiful and stunning. Someday I hope to go back there in memory of my husband. It’s so nice to see you embracing being solo. I still have a very difficult time at it… you are inspirational. Thank you.
It used to be very rude to ask how much money people made… That needs to come into popularity again. It’s your business, not theirs. And it’s again very wise to not spill the beans on everything. 👍😊
The question here is not about how rich or poor she is, it’s a - “how much can one make on UA-cam if one did what she does” - a very different kind of question. I’m grateful she is willing to share. It’s educational.
I don't mind being transparent about how much the channel is making as I always said I'd share that information, just need a full month to give a good picture!
@@NorthernHomestead I agree; as someone who is dipping my toe in to supplement my retirement, I would be grateful to know at least what "ballpark" we are playing in to see if it is something that I want to spend my limited time and resources on. At our age, every little bit counts and it's also hard to recover from mistakes at an older age. Greatly appreciate the share.
That type of thinking is what set us women up to not ask anything about money, which led to us being paid much less than men and not know how to manage our own finances, so I'm glad to see it go the way of the dinosaurs. If someone doesn't want to answer it, they can just say they'd rather not answer, or ask why the person is asking which may lead to a better, more helpful discussion.
Thank you Jen, for inspiring me and motivating me to get back in front of the camera. Today I uploaded my first video for 2024 and I might have mentioned you! 🎉🎉🎉
You look beautiful in that Black Watch plaid! Those colors really work for you! How nice to live in such a beautiful area with forested walking paths 🌲🌲🌲
I'm so happy to see you maintaining healthy boundaries. Watching you share your life and still protecting your life and the things you value is important for us all to learn. Watching you calmly hold your ground was very powerful. I really enjoy watching what you choose to share and I am learning useful tips here. Thank you.
Such a beautiful place to walk through paradise, to me, with your beloved dog. My walk consists to a housing development here in the United States. Oh how I wish I had such a spectacular place to walk and enjoy nature. ❤ The music is just perfect to listen to, also. 😊
I'm so very thankful for your transparency about money and finances. Us thinking it's *forbidden* to talk about even tangential things like how much we make from a little side hustle is the kind of thinking that led to us being paid much less than men and not knowing how to manage our own money. THANK YOU for going against that and not participating in shaming those who ask. ❤ We need to learn these things, and since men won't teach us, who else is there but each other? Where you live though, that's a very different story! In this day and age of severe online harassment that not-rarely turns to real-life stalking, it's just plain smart to only give a general area.
Happy Sunday Jen - I look forward to these Sunday walks with you -thanks you for taking us all along. My opinion is: no one needs to know (& should not be asking) what you make by doing these, and I hope you will not oblige those who ask. Same goes for your exact location. But again, this is just my opinion and I feel one needs to take precautions for our own safety - the world is not what it used to be when doors did not need to be locked. 😞 But I will ask a question: have you ever considered a walk with out the background music - as peaceful as it may be - but in reality a nature walk has it's own background music which is also very peaceful. Anyway - thanks again for another lovely Sunday walk Jen. 😀
I love watching you and listening to your insights. You are truly motivating me toward my next adventure. By the way, I am silver and solo by choice . I, too, love my gray hair!! 🎉
I can smell the mossy trees and ferns along your walk. I’m originally from western Washington and last time there brought a fern home to plant. I agree with you on location anonymity . I’m considering some changes to my life and after eight years of no traveling or hardly leaving my home , I want a little camper and to venture. Trauma needs to release its grasp.
Place you live looks so much like Portland Oregon area, I love the moist forests and your walk w your dog. I live in the city and have a little city garden, and a dachshund who keeps me in line. I love it that women are finding community and support and learning together on the internet. I am trying to learn about having a UA-cam channel and sharing things that I love and things that work for me :) I am watching all your videos, keep up the great work :)
I enjoy watching your walks thru the woods with Skye. The trails are well defined and lots of variety, fields, dense trees and water to enjoy. I lived in Vancouver as a young teen for a couple years and loved it. The mountains, the water and the forests to explore with easy reach of a major city. The west coast has the most beautiful scenery.
What a wonderful walk, Jen - the countryside is so beautiful there! I loved the meditative music, too - can you tell us the artist/track name, please? Enjoy your Sunday 😊🇬🇧
I've been to Victoria, sunken Gardens etc. Of course no Walk in your magical woods. It lookd like There is lits of rain . Trees must be happy when the Sun 🔆 shines on them. Thank you for taking US along. A Florida 🌴 Fan. 😘
Thank you for taking us on a walk with Skye. My daughter and family are on Vancouver Island, at the moment. They rented a cabin on the west side, and said that the tide goes out a kilometer on the beach. I would like to go there too. It is still rude for people to ask how much one earns, not their business, nor do they need to invade your privacy by asking exactly where you live. Staying safe, is a serious priority these days for all of us, not one to be taken lightly. But, what I do know, is that you live in a very beautiful area! I love being close to nature and wildlife, both bring a great deal of enjoyment and peace to one's life.
Hello from Texas. I agree with a lot of the comments you do not have to say exactly where you live or how much you make . It will probably very on how many people watch, the length of each video and various other factors. That information is none of other peoples business. I am in my 70"s when people ask about my income and how I can afford certain things I have and do, I reply unless you are supporting me it is none of your business. Enjoy your videos and the walks.
I don't mind being transparent about how much the channel is making as I always said I'd share that information, just need a full month to give a good picture!
Good questions and great answers! There’s something funny about people who do work visible for lots and lots of people to see. Some of those people think that you have to share everything about your live when they want to know it. Look at what happened in the UK with the royal family. You don’t need to tell or do things you dont want to share or do. And above that, you even dont have to explane why you dont. And I get it, your surroundings are breathtaking. Nature is breathtaking and for most people even closer at home than they think. In the Netherlands we have nice woods where I take my dog frequently for a walk just like you and Skye 🐶. Have a lovely day.
Hi, Jen! I just love your videos. I find them all so soothing and inspiring, and I love the walks through the forest--it's like a faerie land where you live, gorgeous and magical. I enjoyed the info on Sky and your kitty. :) I never would have guessed Skye is 3/4 Bernese Mountain Dog! They're my dream dogs, I'm hoping to adopt one in the near future. As for your kitty.... We have one left of three brothers who were rescued when their feral mom was carried off by coyotes shortly after they were born. He's 15 now and has become steadily more cuddly with age, but he definitely was not when he was younger. :) Thank you for sharing your days with us!
Jen I'm a huge animal lover. Thank you for the privilege of taking us on their journey too. As for your finances gosh that's not anyone's business....surely they can ask UA-cam directly 😮x
Hi Jen You are an honest breath of fresh air ! I am new here … and really love your ease and straightforward honesty. Love the music you put with all the nature walks … very soothing as we watch the extraordinarily beautiful part of the world you live in. Thank you Kate 🍃🐢🍃
Ahhhh, lovely walk in the woods. Thank you for taking us along. Might you run into a bear or cougar or are they more fearful of you & your dog? Enjoy your day.
I make noise as I walk and Skye wears her bell and stays close to me. Bears and cougars don't want to meet people any more than we want to meet them. All of the wild animals around here are well-fed naturally and don't stalk and attack people.
Thanks for sharing your walk and answering questions, but some questions are a little too personal and I’m glad that you didn’t answer. I miss taking my dogs to the dog park. I have a couple of videos of dog parks.
Hi Jen… good for you not telling people where you live, your privacy needs to be respected. Also I don’t see any reason to tell people what you make on utube, I have see other utubers that did, and then they got judged for a number of reasons with some nasty comments…,you are so authentic and really nice , I wouldn’t want to see this happen to you. What a beautiful walk and great choice of peaceful music. Take care have a great week .😊🥰
I love seeing what other UA-camrs are making through the platform and I always said I'd show the results of monetization on my channel. I just want to get a full month in before I report. You have a great week too!
Yes! Skye and I have seen bears, deer, owls, racoons and lots and lots of rabbits! None of the wild animals here hide and wait to pounce on unsuspecting humans. If they hear you coming, they move away. So I make noise and Skye wears a bell.
Hi Jen I have just discovered your channel and you have a dog ❤️yes don’t give were you stay Vancouver is good enough watching you from a very wet Edinburgh Scotland 🏴 it’s rained for days not my fav dog walking weather
Good morning Jen. You do not need to explain your finances to anyone . Some people are so rude to ask you, I find it unbelievable . I totally agree with you regarding where you live and as a Probation Officer I know how dangerous it is broad casting to the world as it could have major consequences. Have a beautiful day xx
It's ok to ask about how much the channel is making as I always said I'd share the details. I don't mind at all, just that it's too soon to have a good reckoning. Thanks for the comment tho!
Look at your channel grow!! You are doing something right. I think when people ask you about how Much you make on UA-cam, it’s probably for them to weigh if it’s worth the expense and time it takes to get it started. Obviously you just dig right in with no promise of reward .Others might want to role model to show them the path is worth it. Just letting you know, if you ever decide to sell t-shirts in an online store on your channel, I’ll buy one that says “Silver and Solo”
Hi Jen, I’m a baby boomer silver and solo in Texas. All the advice I’ve heard you give is spot on. I love solo living and traveling. I have good friends for attending plays and concerts with and family just 3 hours away. Your forested walk is beautiful. What kind of wildlife might you encounter?
Hi Jen. I am soooo glad you did not give out personal information such as your residential locale. It’s unfortunate, but as a single women in todays world, safety must take priority. Now, just a lil’ comment on where you reside. It is so amazingly beautiful and serene. To me, it looks like you landed in heaven….at least this is what I imagine it to be :)
Wow Jen. I cannot believe people actually ask where exactly you live. That is very personal and none of their business. And yes, for your safety because there are many weird people out in the world, I would never share that either. What they can ask for is a meet and greet as your channel grows and then plan some events somewhere in that region
I don't mind being transparent about how much the channel is making as I always said I'd share that information, just need a full month to give a good picture! I'm not familiar with Nancy Today....
I'm a keen hiker and that ancient forest looks fabulous. Just what I needed at the end of a very challenging day. For your question list - have you ever suffered from depression and how do you stay cheerful?
I suffered from depression and anxiety near the end of my time with my last employer. I managed with stoicism as I had a goal and an endpoint in mind. Getting the severance package from that terrible job was my release. But also got medical help in the form of anti-anxiety medication and a couple one-on-one therapy sessions. Everyone tries to put on a cheerful face, but if you're suffering, seek help. It's out there and these days, it's much easier and more accepted to admit you're struggling and there are lots of different avenues to receive assistance. I knew I needed help and I got it. You can too. All good karma coming your way!
Are you ever nervous walking the trail? I would be, seems very isolated. Also are you ever afraid a coyote or pack will attack your dog? I live on 7 acres and have lots of wild life, including bob cats, fox, wolfs, and coyotes.. Also in Nh you have to have a dog on leash when walking outside of our property. Looks like that is not the case where you live. Please be careful when walking alone. Do you ever walk with others? Enjoying your videos, happy that your channel 😮is growing.😊
There are bears and cougars in the area, and wolves further down the coast, but not here. No coyotes. We coexist with all the animals and as I've said to others.... they don't want to meet humans any more than we want to meet them. I make noise and Skye wears her bell and stays close to me to allow them time to hear us coming and move away. Bears don't hide out waiting for unsuspecting people and dogs to walk by so they can attack them! Cougars around here are focused on prey. Deer, rabbits, quail and other birds, and salmon. Some farm animals fall to both bears and cougars, but there's never been an attack on a human.
Here in the province of British Columbia , many people take their dogs on unleashed walks in the forest. Regularly I meet up with a group and we often have 4 or 5 dogs happily exploring the forest. They love it!
Jen, I would be most interested in learning how to edit videos. You were smart enough to learn from other UA-camrs but I feel I need a formal class and I wonder how I can go about that. If I ask 10 people, they give me 10 different programs and I just become confused. I am nearing 60 as well
@@silverandsolo pardon, I did not write my comment clearly. I meant to say how do you protect yourself from other animals? I think the woods are beautiful but again, because I have been in the city all of my life, I am afraid of what may come down from the trees etc. LOL
I promised early on to show how much UA-cam paid me once I got monetized, but needed to wait for a month to see the fruits! This coming Sunday will be the day! Tune in!
Good for you; internet buddies do not need to know exactly where you live. There are some wonderful folks out here, but there are also some with questionable motives.
Jen you do not need to tell anyone about your finances or where you live ! The audacity !. Loved your pet stories and walking in nature. Retired ! Ontario hiker with dog enjoying the simple things in life. Be yourself and dance like no one is watching. 🎶🎶💃💃🥰🥰🐶🐶
👍

You are already being a teacher and mentor to us all. You don’t need to do anything else, provide anything else, share anything else.
Do not tell people where you live. I totally agree with you. Happy to hear that they are finally going to monetize you? Happy Sunday!
Yes, I like the walk through, the music is very soothing.
Listen. I don't need to know what you make on you tube.
I don't want you to force yourself into a label. Watching you live a normal life with the ups and downs of life is nice.
I don't watch just for the content. There are a lot of people doing you tube and their character and life circumstances keep me watching. I don't need to watch a computer I need a honest sincere empathetic person who loves animals and the world. I'm 6 years older than you and you know maturity makes us read others. It's the time that I don't need drama but am so thankful to see positive people like you. ❤❤
I totally agree. No need to tell us where you live or how much you make! Just happy for you that you're making a good solo life for yourself and sharing it with us❤
Love your choice of music for your Sunday vlog, so peaceful and tranquil.
It's very soothing with the unbelievable scenery.
Thanks for this video. I love FAQ type videos.
Jen, your vlogs are among the most encouraging, positive, practical AND magical on UA-cam. I'm grateful you're here, and thank you for the tour of your beautiful homeland!

It’s so nice to see you embracing being solo.
I still have a very difficult time at it… you are inspirational. Thank you.
Fairy tale forest!
It used to be very rude to ask how much money people made… That needs to come into popularity again. It’s your business, not theirs. And it’s again very wise to not spill the beans on everything. 👍😊
While I agree with you in general, when you start with can I be monetized you’ve at least invited the question.
The question here is not about how rich or poor she is, it’s a - “how much can one make on UA-cam if one did what she does” - a very different kind of question. I’m grateful she is willing to share. It’s educational.

11:22 Love the overhanging branches. Beautiful deep velvet green colour.
Greetings from Arkansas. Your walk was in a beautiful place.
What a lovely start to my day. thank you.hi from New Zealand.
You look beautiful in that Black Watch plaid! Those colors really work for you! How nice to live in such a beautiful area with forested walking paths 🌲🌲🌲

Such a beautiful place to walk through paradise, to me, with your beloved dog. My walk consists to a housing development here in the United States.
Oh how I wish I had such a spectacular place to walk and enjoy nature. ❤
The music is just perfect to listen to, also. 😊

The scenery reminds me of the Netflix series 'Virgin River'. Just beautiful
Virgin River is filmed in Vancouver, so the tour operator told us last fall on the tour bus.
Thanks for answers to FAQ's, and I enjoyed the walk as well!
Thank you for taking us on beautiful walks with you! Thank you as well for selecting the perfect soundtrack to play over the footage.

Lovely walk. Beautiful forest and river area.
Oh, thank you for the lovely walk! You live in a beautiful area!
Thank you
Thanks for taking us along on your walk. I used to love walking my dog through the miaty woods on the island.
Glad you have tons of followers now!
Beautiful part of the country that you live in 🙂.
Happy Sunday!
I enjoy your videos very much.

Wow❗Everything is still green❗🌲🌳🪴🍀☘️🌿🌱🍃What a blessing❗
I once visited Vancouver Island. It was hands down the most beautiful place I have ever visited.
That’s my fav video!!!
11:44 Picture perfect.
Understandable not giving out where you live. It’s beautiful where you live. Teach would be awesome because your so informative and just calm. Ty
I've been to Victoria, sunken Gardens etc.
Of course no Walk in your magical woods.
It lookd like There is lits of rain . Trees must be happy when the Sun 🔆 shines on them.
Thank you for taking US along. A Florida 🌴

You live in such a beautiful area!
Congratulations on monetizing You Tube. The walk through the forest is soothing.
Jen, Do you have a favorite recipe to share? That would be interesting. My daughter loves to cook! I use to cook a lot more than I do these days.
Good questions and great answers! There’s something funny about people who do work visible for lots and lots of people to see. Some of those people think that you have to share everything about your live when they want to know it. Look at what happened in the UK with the royal family.

I love Vancouver Island thanks for sharing your walks. They are stunning.
love the intensity (sound volume) of Skye's bell. great idea. Where'd you get it? I've been enjoying your videos. Thank you.
Four dollars at Home Hardware...it's a camping essential around here.

You are an honest breath
of fresh air !
I am new here … and really
love your ease and straightforward honesty.
Love the music you put with
all the nature walks … very
soothing as we watch the
extraordinarily beautiful part
of the world you live in.
Thank you

Thank you so much!
So peaceful!!

Thank you for not staying where are you exactly live. We don’t need to know that exactly and thank you for being wise.
Thank you 😊 this was nice.
Are these the same woods where you showed a cougar & bear in an earlier video? Have you ever been approached by a wild critter in these woods? 😮
Yes! Skye and I have seen bears, deer, owls, racoons and lots and lots of rabbits! None of the wild animals here hide and wait to pounce on unsuspecting humans. If they hear you coming, they move away. So I make noise and Skye wears a bell.
Fairytale woods and the path looks safe to walk, but honestly I’ll be scared to walk by myself. Stay self please! ❤
Hi Jen I have just discovered your channel and you have a dog ❤️yes don’t give were you stay Vancouver is good enough watching you from a very wet Edinburgh Scotland 🏴 it’s rained for days not my fav dog walking weather

Much you make on UA-cam, it’s probably for them to weigh if it’s worth the expense and time it takes to get it started. Obviously you just dig right in with no promise of reward .Others might want to role
model to show them the path is worth it. Just letting you know, if you ever decide to sell t-shirts in an online store on your channel, I’ll buy one that says “Silver and Solo”
Cute pets.
Thank you! 😊

Hi Jen,
I’m a baby boomer silver and solo in Texas. All the advice I’ve heard you give is spot on. I love solo living and traveling. I have good friends for attending plays and concerts with and family just 3 hours away.
Your forested walk is beautiful. What kind of wildlife might you encounter?
We (Skye and I) have met deer, racoons, rabbits and bears. All lovely creatures we coexist with!
Hi Jen.
I am soooo glad you did not give out personal information such as your residential locale. It’s unfortunate, but as a single women in todays world, safety must take priority.
Now, just a lil’ comment on where you reside. It is so amazingly beautiful and serene. To me, it looks like you landed in heaven….at least this is what I imagine it to be :)
Wow Jen. I cannot believe people actually ask where exactly you live. That is very personal and none of their business. And yes, for your safety because there are many weird people out in the world, I would never share that either. What they can ask for is a meet and greet as your channel grows and then plan some events somewhere in that region
People are curious creatures!
A lot of those questions were really rude!Unlike this brilliant question do you know Nancy Today? Like your station.Rock on !🍔🌈❤
I don't mind being transparent about how much the channel is making as I always said I'd share that information, just need a full month to give a good picture! I'm not familiar with Nancy Today....
I'm a keen hiker and that ancient forest looks fabulous. Just what I needed at the end of a very challenging day.
For your question list - have you ever suffered from depression and how do you stay cheerful?
I suffered from depression and anxiety near the end of my time with my last employer. I managed with stoicism as I had a goal and an endpoint in mind. Getting the severance package from that terrible job was my release. But also got medical help in the form of anti-anxiety medication and a couple one-on-one therapy sessions. Everyone tries to put on a cheerful face, but if you're suffering, seek help. It's out there and these days, it's much easier and more accepted to admit you're struggling and there are lots of different avenues to receive assistance. I knew I needed help and I got it. You can too. All good karma coming your way!
Are you ever nervous walking the trail? I would be, seems very isolated. Also are you ever afraid a coyote or pack will attack your dog? I live on 7 acres and have lots of wild life, including bob cats, fox, wolfs, and coyotes.. Also in Nh you have to have a dog on leash when walking outside of our property. Looks like that is not the case where you live. Please be careful when walking alone. Do you ever walk with others?
Enjoying your videos, happy that your channel 😮is growing.😊
I’m worried about the same thing for her and her dog, mostly wild animals attacking her little dog.
There are bears and cougars in the area, and wolves further down the coast, but not here. No coyotes. We coexist with all the animals and as I've said to others.... they don't want to meet humans any more than we want to meet them. I make noise and Skye wears her bell and stays close to me to allow them time to hear us coming and move away. Bears don't hide out waiting for unsuspecting people and dogs to walk by so they can attack them! Cougars around here are focused on prey. Deer, rabbits, quail and other birds, and salmon. Some farm animals fall to both bears and cougars, but there's never been an attack on a human.
Here in the province of British Columbia , many people take their dogs on unleashed walks in the forest. Regularly I meet up with a group and we often have 4 or 5 dogs happily exploring the forest. They love it!
Love the walk! Are there bears and moose and cougars and wolves on Vancouver Island?
Bears, cougars, wolves and elk...no moose!
Well beaten pathway thro' forest
Does it lead to some habitation ? or just used by people like you to unwind.
It's used by people. It winds around and through my little community. I'm very lucky.
I wouldn’t give my precise location either. It’s lovely but I worry in case you encounter a bear or cougar I did worry on the first video too.
Isn’t there a website that explains monetization? I’d expect it to be tiered.
Jen, I would be most interested in learning how to edit videos. You were smart enough to learn from other UA-camrs but I feel I need a formal class and I wonder how I can go about that. If I ask 10 people, they give me 10 different programs and I just become confused. I am nearing 60 as well
I use DaVinci Resolve, the free version. There are a lot of videos out there if you google "davinci resolve for beginners"...
@@silverandsolo You are awesome. Thank you!
Could you list where you get the background music for this video? ❤
I subscribe to Epidemic Sound, www.epidemicsound.com
The music on this video was Drift Up, by Amber Glow
👍❤️
Are you using a drone in this video? How are you recording yourself?
I don't own a drone, but I'm thinking about it! No, on this video, I'm using my phone and a gimbal. Nothing else.
Sorry for another message, but I am a total city girl and walking through those woods would make me nervous. How do you protect yourself
Protect myself from what?? LOL! It's a lovely quiet time for a walk with my pup and I wouldn't give it up for anything! :)
@@silverandsolo pardon, I did not write my comment clearly. I meant to say how do you protect yourself from other animals? I think the woods are beautiful but again, because I have been in the city all of my life, I am afraid of what may come down from the trees etc. LOL
What you make is your business, nobody elses. Some people are so rude.
I promised early on to show how much UA-cam paid me once I got monetized, but needed to wait for a month to see the fruits! This coming Sunday will be the day! Tune in!
Good for you; internet buddies do not need to know exactly where you live. There are some wonderful folks out here, but there are also some with questionable motives.
