Hi friends!! I genuinely believe high school students are so POWERFUL!! This is the time of your life to figure out who you are, what you like studying, what good friends look like and how you want to make the world a better place. You have more free time to get out of your comfort zone and work on yourself!! If you're here and reading this, I just want to say a huge huge congrats for consciously wanting to make the most of school. The world needs more incred proactive people like you!! 😌✨ I hope you enjoy this HIGHLY requested big sis advice video!! if you do please give it a cheeky lil thumbs up
She is my role model cause promotes body positivity, meditation, study for knowledge not grades and she is whole proton (she herself gives positive vibes)🍁
I finished secondary school in not a great place, messed up uni, quit, changed degrees and institutions and found my best friend by putting myself out there after that, totally by random coincidence but… thank you Jade! Wish I’d had this video earlier in life
🦋🦋 I'm in my final A-Level year, and I 100% relate with all these experiences. For all of you guys now starting the journey, embrace it. Live in the moment. And don't get lost in the materialistic things everyone else seems to be. This part of like is all about YOU and finding out what that means. Sending so much smiles
🦋 Thank you for this video! I am in my last year of highschool and I just realised how much I have grown as a person in the last few years. While watching this video I could reflect on things that happened. All things mentioned resonated with me. Thank you Jade for this moment. And to everyone reading this hope you are proud of yourself today because you are doing great!
I LOVE this!! I’m in uni, and on the not rushing dating I sooo agree. I didn’t rush into it and am now in a beautiful relationship where there is so much respect and love. No one at uni or in the wider world cares if you haven’t kissed or dated anyone. Love all the rest of the advice too! xxx
such a lifesaver jade!! i'm in 10th grade and i've been watching for years, i'm always so impressed & inspired by everything you do! how did you balance doing fun and relaxing things during school breaks while it's still an option vs. pressure to invest your time in pre-college programs or internships? 🦋
hello hello!! awhh thank you so much 🦋 omg such a good question!! i really wanted to be a vet when I was in high school so I spent most of my school breaks doing work experience (e.g working in stables and animal rescues!). I think it's about finding a good balance. The fact you're considering this means you're likely proactive (queen!!) and finding pre-college programs already, so I'd recommend making a conscious effort to do the opposite too. For example, I would always make time to rest and relax near exam season 💛 I hope that helps!! x
🦋WHERE WAS THIS VIDEO MY ENTIRE LIFE?? GOSH I AM LEFT WITH TWO MONTHS IN MY SECONDARY SCHOOL, AND THIS VIDEO WAS MUCH NEEDED TWO YEARS PRIOR. JADE THANK YOU FOR BEING SUCH A SUNSHINE. THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO. I COULD JUST RELATE TO EVERYTHING LITERALLY EVERYTHING YOU SAID IN THIS VIDEO. IT HAS SPARKLED SOMETHING WITHIN ME. THANKS A LOT ❤
this whole video is just one huge YES! agreed with everything you said and I'm so happy I finally see someone with the same mindset and approach as I had in school and still cultivate🦋 "you can only achieve what you can dare to imagine for yourself. so please, dare to imagine. think big, think bold that you have this huge amazing life ahead of you and it's up to you to seize it, so do it!" all here for this!!!
🦋 Hey Jade! I've been following you for a while now and I just wanna say that you're amazing. I was just having an breakdown thinking about how I haven't achieved anything significant in my secondary school years even though I'm on my last one. After watching this I think I am going to do my best to get the best out of my secondary school journey. I am actually scared about what I'm gonna do after school, but you gave me a bit of sunshine and I love you for that🦋
Watching this as a literal third year undergrad bu I relate so much to your secondary school experience, Jade. It has been so inspiring to watch you come such a long way, and you keep me motivated to keep growing and learning for the sake of learning. Also let's not beat around the bush - YOU ARE SPONSORED BY PEARSON? So proud of you for literally getting recognised by such a strong force in secondary education!!! Keep being you, Jade - you are wonderful
🦋Thank you, Jade. I’m a ‘silent viewer’, having followed you since your gap year but I felt compelled to leave a little message. I’m a current year 13 studying A level chemistry and gosh is it the bane of my life. However, I appreciate your videos that guide me through and let me know that it will be okay; you smashed it and I can too. The end of the video, in particular, felt as if you were talking to ME as my big sister- empowering me and making sure I know that my potential is endless and I can do anything, we all can. So much love for you and your content, you are inspiring so many people and you’re incredible xxx
Jade. I feel high schooler need to watch this video. Should be require to watch. Since most students are motivated to change their habit if told a certain way and can relate to them.🦋
🦋🦋🦋I've been watching your videos for a while and as a last year highschool student (I'm from Spain) I'm struggling with anxiety beacuse even though I'm trying my best studying every single day, paying attention in class, etc. I feel that my effort it's not being reflected in my grades and this makes me feel so stress. So thank you so much for this video, it has helped me so much, you're such an inspiration 🦋🦋🦋
Hi Jade! I Think I’m around the same age as you and I am so so so so so grateful to have had the opportunity to grow up with you (and thanks to you!) From my final high school exam up until now that I’m about to graduate in uni you’ve been such an inspiration. Whenever i feel drained by today’s society and its standards I come back to you and I can feel so peaceful and content with myself. You’re such a joy and a pleasure in our lives, thank you for sharing your experiences and thoughts with us, it really means a lot! Hope you the best ❤
heyoo jade 🦋 I'm writing this comment right before watching the video, im in 11th grade and ive been trying to balance entrance exam prep along with extracurriculars and time for myself AND YOUR VIDEOS ARE LITERAL THERAPY ✨ Thank you for exisitng love ya
I'm well into secondary school now, and i have been struggling to say the least, but this video was super helpful! Thank you so much Jade, you have really inspired me as always

🦋i love you so so much jade!! teared up several times in this video i just feel so proud of you for how much you've grown :') you will forever be my number 1 role model
Jade, your guidance for high school students is invaluable! From mindset to study tips, your advice is a treasure trove for personal and academic growth. Thank you for empowering young minds like me! 🌟📚
🦋 as somebody who had undiagnosed adhd till late 20's it made me a bit sad listening to all this, but in a good way i guess, i messed up many things because having something wrong with my mind without really realising or having the right people notice the issues in a good way. But it's never to late to learn and improve :)
🦋AAAAA I HAVE TESTS FOR FRENCH AND ENGLISH TOMORROW !!! i've been waking up at 5:30 am every day this week to try to get on top of my schoolwork, and right now these assessments seem like the biggest deal BUT after watching some of ur videos (tbh this is the only time i actually feel good procrastinating) it puts things into perspective and now im so much more motivated to just try my best and let go of it!
Such an inspiration! I wish I knew all this in secondary school so this has been helpful! Hope to show this to my students because they need to hear this! Love your content Jade keep it going🤍
hi jade, this video has come at exactly the right time as i am about to go back to school for november mock exam season and i could do with some advice lol ;) can't wait to watch! :D
I'm in the 12th grade and here in India ,the 12th exam is like BIG deal exam to some extent.....and its just so much pressure to perform well and everything and everyone always seems to be doing better than you.....like why is teenage life sooooo stressful and confusing 😭😭😭...you really give me the perspective and courage to go through with this jade ughhhhh 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋love ya❤️
🦋 Jade, I cannot thank you enough for your positive attitude and uplifting confidence towards everything you do, It is truly inspiring ❤ I am taking my GCSE mock exams next week, and I truly wouldn't have half the motivation I do without people like you showing me the opportunities achieving academically can bring me!
🦋 Hello Jade! I discovered your channel when I was in 9th grade. Next year, I will be in the final year of high-school and will finally take my A Levels. Your videos have always inspired me to become the best version of myself. You've taught me to see the casual magic in every day life and try my best to achieve my dreams. You are truly an inspiration to my life and your videos are so comforting. I always feel better when I watch your videos. So thank you for your amazing advice and for just being a huge pillar of support for me, sending u lots of love! ❤❤
Jade you are such a role model and inspiration 🦋✨. You have helped me so much with just everything from tips on studying all the way to having positive mindset, looking at things the positive way and just life. Can't thank you enough.
I love your videos jade! I'm at a point in life where I'm preparing for an entrance exam and I feel so confused if I really even want to do it. Bcuz prep for this exam just leaves me no time to do anything else. And I've always wanted to do so many things like UA-cam or my own blog. Your video really came at a time when I needed it thank you so so much. ❤🦋
I'm so glad you found it useful!! 🥰🦋 aaaaah this is amazing!! If you have the desire to create your own channel or blog, there is no better time than now. I dare you to turn your dreams into actions and get started. You've got this! 🤝
🦋 omg jade!! i genuinely cant thank you enough for being so inspiring and always cheekily feeding me exactly what i need to hear keep up the great effort 🌷
🦋Right if anyone actually reads this or takes notice I might start crying whilst laughing from joy- so cheers if you do, I already love you for spending time reading this. I've just started y10 and the stress I'm putting on myself because I'm a high achiever is so annoying, a lot of days I'm stressed out or I'm overthinking. Rn I just experienced an 8-week term or smth crazy like that and now I'm on my October break. And over the past few days I've been making flashcards for science- which was well easy- and for English lit cus the amount of quotes I have to learn is insane. And one thing I've found most difficult is actually knowing how to revise for English lit and lang, like how the bloody hell am I meant to remember these 15 poems, ACC, An Inspector Calls and Macbeth? And I asked one of my mates who just did her GCSEs and my brother who did his a couple years ago, and they didn't really give me straightforward answers. Like for me, the analytical part of English is the easiest part, but remembering all the quotes is the hardest I asked them both how I should revise the quotes and they said active recall. And I'm sat here thinking how are you meant to actively remember quotes? So, what I've done is left some blanks in the quotes and put them on my flashcard: complete the quote and analyse it. Can't tell you for the life of me if it'll actually work or not, I just hope it does. So my question to Jade- if she actually reads it- and to anyone who is doing their GCSEs or has done them how they are revising or revising for English that would be very useful. But, to anyone who wants a piece of my advice- will anyone take it? Probably not- is to focus on yourself and your passions like Jade said. I've recently been enamoured by how shoddy the school system is and I've took it into my hands to research all about it and why it needs to change, I've said to myself that I'm going to change the education system because of how we emphasise on learning for the sake of getting a good grade instead of learning for the sake of learning, will I actually go into changing the education system? Maybe. Will I succeed in changing it if I do go into it? Maybe. But, that's my lil rant- go eat some food and drink some water, and if you feel like it get some work done. And whoever reads it just take care of urself and know that there's ppl who actually care abt you and how your doing so go msg that and tell them that u love them
Hey Jade, you are my role model and you have always been. I'm a student of 11th class from India and besides being an ex - topper of my class Im struggling terribly. I'm preparing for NEET exam which has a success rate only for about 6-7%. In my previous grade I use to study for the entire day, each day I was studying as if I have an exam tomorrow. But the thing is, I cant do it anymore, im now a below average student. Considering my scores and behaviour My coaching even sent me to a psychologist and an academic councellor but none of them were able to help me. After my classes of about 7 hours, I get homework of almost every subject and the deadline is the next class. My motive is to complete the homework first so that i can ask doubts the next day, and then learn and revise the things. But, that homework of mine takes all the time and sometimes it doesnt gets completed even on the next day and I end up not doing it and not learning anything. Now, i have no desire to study because no matter how hard i try, my score jusst doesnt increases students kf my class are getting sad for getting 450/720 when I just got 210/720. Everyone sees me as a hopeless person who will never change and most of my friends to whom I have been nice to, have turned their backs, because we are all crazy about studying. Noone wants to be friends with someone who isnt scoring well. Now it feels like maybe they are right about me.
🦋 I'm only 13, and have barely any idea of what I want to do in life but honestly I'd love to be like Jade: confident, smiley and calm. She is definitely my role model
thank u for this video, jade you're such an inspirational person love the way you express yourself. your videos are like a comfort place (just like chan's room:) this video just came in the right moment. we've saved this to "watch later" and we were just procastinating to watch, cuz usually this kind of titles gives tips to start doing like right after the video ends, but today we just got into our deam college "IF" (it's a governamental school, for which you do an exam to get in) and we confess we're feeling a little bit without directions on how this is gonna be, but we only have control on what WE do, and probaly things are not gonna happen the way we imagine or want, and thats the way things are, we can only manage the way we deal with them. this whole video was like a conversation, an "advised conversation", with my eldest sister. TYSM jade💌
I have been called a try hard from the age of 14! I am 20 now and it has never stopped, but I have also had the most amazing opportunities to travel and work with industry professionals and I have amazing lecturer connections. I am so happy I stayed true to doing what I wanted and didn't let others change my mind. Hot girls try hard!
🦋🦋🦋 School starts tomorrow again for me after my half-terms and before watching the video, I felt a little discouraged because of my grades and so much stress coming up till Christmas. Your video made me gain a bit more confidence in me to dare to have big dreams and to work towards them ✨️ ✨️. Thank you so much ❤!! Also, greetings from Germany 🤗
I'm in year 11 rn and I have mocks in a week from now 😭😭I find it really hard to get the motivation to revise or do anything for that matter but this video has helped motivate me and I'll definitely be checking out pearson revise!! Tysm 😊🦋
🦋 I am a high school student. I was feeling pretty bad about myself today and this video made me feel like I am powerful. It felt like an elder sister that I never had was giving me advice. Thank you Jade!!
🦋🦋 Blue butterflies are not available so you have to be satisfied with these gorgeous brown ones. I am well into my final year of uni and I still watched all of this video and let me tell you I loved it. This video healed some part of me. I just wanna say that I love how this beautiful human talks. Its like elixir to me and I love how passionate she is about all this. I can tell just by looking. There's a sparkle in your eyes and you're practically glowing jade. I love to see it. And every thing she says in the video is so true. As I was watching this I started thinking about younger me (I was also a learning enthusiast and I grew up with Hermione Granger, Tony stark and Peter parker. They were some of my biggest role models). I am so proud of her for doing the best she can with what she had(those were some pretty harsh times ooofve) and for never giving up on her passion for learning I am where I am because of her. I mean sure it could've been better but she did everything she could and I love her.
You just made my day!❤🦋 I am in highschool in Germany right now and I have always been feeling like I am missing out on social stuff because I am very focused on my education and learning.
🦋heyy jade!! This video found me at a threshold moment in my life as I am about to write my IGCSE exams next week here in India :)) I just wanted to say that your story and everything that you embody continues to inspire me and so many young people across the globe and what a beautiful contribution that is to the world. Sending you much much love 💗
🦋Hello Jade! I'm just beginning my junior year, and have been following you for years! It's amazing to see how much you've changed, and it only makes me motivated, and excited, to work harder as well! I'm also living near Lisbon, as I'm Portuguese, but I've traveled all over my whole life, so it's interesting seeing the different ways we cope with moving. I hope you enjoy living in Lisbon, and maybe I'll catch you around!
gahhhh Jade!! As someone who is in year 11 and is absolutely terrified for exams and is really struggling with my mental health and body image, thank you so much. You are so so motivating and inspirational. Thank you for being a beautiful human inside and out🦋✨💛
Hi Jade! I had a really tough day today and your video literally saved me! I have been struggling with anxiety and just a negative mindset for a while and a lot of things feel really hard. I would really really appreciate if you could do a video and share some of your tips regarding mental health and anxiety! No pressure though, do what you feel like!
Thank you so much for your fabulous videos! I love how you bring so much positivity to each of them and how they leave me feeling motivated to study and love myself (currently watching this while I should be doing maths revision but oh well)🦋
i'm in year 12 right now but this was still really useful, even though i've been at secondary school for 5 years! i want to make the most of sixth form and do as well as i can in my a levels! 🦋🦋 also what is your advice for how to start networking? you mention it a lot but i'm not sure how to approach it
I'm so glad you found it helpful!! I love how proactive you are and I hope year 12 is going well 💛 omg okay so for online networking, I recommend making a LinkedIn account. It's good practice to already start writing about your experiences (e.g the clubs you do, or projects outside of school) and to learn how to build a personal brand. Use the search tool to find professionals in your desired industry and send them a message asking for a 15-minute 'informational interview'. This is where you set up an informal online call and ask them about their experiences, learnings and advice! This is the best way to find out if you like certain industries/careers, to find potential mentors and even to find future jobs!! I'm sure the professionals will feel honoured that you want to hear about their experiences, and impressed that you're proactive at such a young age. It feels scary at first, but is SUCH an important skill to learn because 75% of jobs nowadays aren't even listed -- they're gotten via who you know. For in-person networking, you can find careers events, lectures or anything in your realm of interest and just practise speaking to strangers. You've got this!!
Hey Jade, thank you so so so much for videos like this one!🦋 I amcurrently in 12. grade, so it is my last year of going to school (I am from Germany). 11. grade was the hardest time of my life, since I had a lot of mental health problems, and besides my boyfriend and some of my online friends that are absolute angels, you really helped me through this! I read your book the summer before 11. grade and all of your tipps helped me soo much! My grades did drop, because on some days I was simply not able to get up and study, but without you it would have been so much worse! My dream is to do an Academic Gap Year in England next year! In case you do not know what that is exactly, basically you go to uni, but you can chose modules from whatever courses you want to and like get an idea if that is actually what you want to do. I love the idea of it, because I used to want to go to uni in England, but decided against it because it is so expensive (you probably know that going to uni is kind of for free in Germany). My parents are not quite convinced yet, because an Academic Gap Year at Essex costs 20.000 pounds or more and I totally get that they are not really willing to pay that much money, but your video gave me new strength and motivation to try and convince them, because this is my dream and it would be really sad if I gave up so easily! So again, thank you sooo much!! 🦋🦋🦋 Oh and something else: I started my own UA-cam Channel recently! It is all about studying and keeping myself motivated for school while maybe also helping other people who are struggeling at the same time. It is called @AchiveWithMe-
Hi jade, I genuinely share most of what you believe to be important for self-expression and development. The way you described one’s mindset influences the way we act in school absolutely applies in my case and I’d say usually does for most people. However, I would’ve loved to see you perhaps immersing yourself in alternative ways, ways that do not lead you through school but still allow you and encourage you to express yourself (eg as an artist). Btw I’m a university student atm so I’ve got the who9e high school thing behind me, but I liked the idea of your vid anyways so I tuned in :) have a nice day
Currently in my twenties and wishing I would have known back then what I do now... would have made my middleschool/highschool experience a lot easier and better!
🦋I loved this so much :)) I am in Yr11 and this was such a good wake up call for me about how I am enough, I am doing enough and how I can I improve myself in the right way. Thank you :)
Loving the big sis energyy! This was super helpful as someone trying to navigate highschool. Jade, thankyou so much for these amazing videos. Keep up the great work!🦋✨
This is very very inspiring! Thank you Jade, you are such a light💛I'm in my last year of high school, but it's never too late to start dreaming bigger for myself, right? Sending love from Canada!
🦋What a legend, what you said resonates a lot with my experience and that sense of validation which I am sure is felt by many others is something you should be incredibly proud of!🦋
JADEEEE you have no idea how much this helped me i started to make a list of everything i would like to achieve and I SOMEHOW DID MOST OF THEMM I'm going to be 13 soon wish me luck LYYY

🦋
Jade, I cannot thank you enough for your positive attitude and uplifting confidence towards everything you do, It is truly inspiring ❤
I am taking my GCSE mock exams next week, and I truly wouldn't have half the motivation I do without people like you showing me the opportunities achieving academically can bring me!
You and Ruby granger have always been my best buddies.❤
🦋 Hello Jade! I discovered your channel when I was in 9th grade. Next year, I will be in the final year of high-school and will finally take my A Levels. Your videos have always inspired me to become the best version of myself. You've taught me to see the casual magic in every day life and try my best to achieve my dreams. You are truly an inspiration to my life and your videos are so comforting. I always feel better when I watch your videos. So thank you for your amazing advice and for just being a huge pillar of support for me, sending u lots of love! ❤❤
🦋This is exactly what i needed right now.
I can't thank you enough. 🥺💗
You will always be a role model to me. I may be a year 8 but you always help me and give me advice to be a better person thank you jade 🦋🦋😊😊💜
Jade you are such a role model and inspiration 🦋✨. You have helped me so much with just everything from tips on studying all the way to having positive mindset, looking at things the positive way and just life. Can't thank you enough.
I love your videos jade! I'm at a point in life where I'm preparing for an entrance exam and I feel so confused if I really even want to do it. Bcuz prep for this exam just leaves me no time to do anything else. And I've always wanted to do so many things like UA-cam or my own blog. Your video really came at a time when I needed it thank you so so much. ❤🦋
I'm so glad you found it useful!! 🥰🦋 aaaaah this is amazing!! If you have the desire to create your own channel or blog, there is no better time than now. I dare you to turn your dreams into actions and get started. You've got this! 🤝
🦋
omg jade!!
i genuinely cant thank you enough for being so inspiring and always cheekily feeding me exactly what i need to hear
keep up the great effort 🌷
🦋Right if anyone actually reads this or takes notice I might start crying whilst laughing from joy- so cheers if you do, I already love you for spending time reading this. I've just started y10 and the stress I'm putting on myself because I'm a high achiever is so annoying, a lot of days I'm stressed out or I'm overthinking. Rn I just experienced an 8-week term or smth crazy like that and now I'm on my October break. And over the past few days I've been making flashcards for science- which was well easy- and for English lit cus the amount of quotes I have to learn is insane. And one thing I've found most difficult is actually knowing how to revise for English lit and lang, like how the bloody hell am I meant to remember these 15 poems, ACC, An Inspector Calls and Macbeth? And I asked one of my mates who just did her GCSEs and my brother who did his a couple years ago, and they didn't really give me straightforward answers. Like for me, the analytical part of English is the easiest part, but remembering all the quotes is the hardest I asked them both how I should revise the quotes and they said active recall. And I'm sat here thinking how are you meant to actively remember quotes? So, what I've done is left some blanks in the quotes and put them on my flashcard: complete the quote and analyse it. Can't tell you for the life of me if it'll actually work or not, I just hope it does. So my question to Jade- if she actually reads it- and to anyone who is doing their GCSEs or has done them how they are revising or revising for English that would be very useful. But, to anyone who wants a piece of my advice- will anyone take it? Probably not- is to focus on yourself and your passions like Jade said. I've recently been enamoured by how shoddy the school system is and I've took it into my hands to research all about it and why it needs to change, I've said to myself that I'm going to change the education system because of how we emphasise on learning for the sake of getting a good grade instead of learning for the sake of learning, will I actually go into changing the education system? Maybe. Will I succeed in changing it if I do go into it? Maybe. But, that's my lil rant- go eat some food and drink some water, and if you feel like it get some work done. And whoever reads it just take care of urself and know that there's ppl who actually care abt you and how your doing so go msg that and tell them that u love them
Hey Jade, you are my role model and you have always been. I'm a student of 11th class from India and besides being an ex - topper of my class Im struggling terribly.
I'm preparing for NEET exam which has a success rate only for about 6-7%. In my previous grade I use to study for the entire day, each day I was studying as if I have an exam tomorrow.
But the thing is, I cant do it anymore, im now a below average student. Considering my scores and behaviour My coaching even sent me to a psychologist and an academic councellor but none of them were able to help me.
After my classes of about 7 hours, I get homework of almost every subject and the deadline is the next class. My motive is to complete the homework first so that i can ask doubts the next day, and then learn and revise the things. But, that homework of mine takes all the time and sometimes it doesnt gets completed even on the next day and I end up not doing it and not learning anything. Now, i have no desire to study because no matter how hard i try, my score jusst doesnt increases students kf my class are getting sad for getting 450/720 when I just got 210/720. Everyone sees me as a hopeless person who will never change and most of my friends to whom I have been nice to, have turned their backs, because we are all crazy about studying. Noone wants to be friends with someone who isnt scoring well. Now it feels like maybe they are right about me.
I feel you 🤍🫂... don't lose hope...I really am able to relate to you ...I'm in the same grade as u ...btw which grp did u choose ??
🦋
I'm only 13, and have barely any idea of what I want to do in life but honestly I'd love to be like Jade: confident, smiley and calm. She is definitely my role model
Thank you so much for the amazing advice - honestly this video came at the PERFECT time, you have no idea how much I needed this
Jade you are the big sister I never had, oh my gosh I love you so much. Thank you for always putting a smile on my face.
thank u for this video, jade
you're such an inspirational person
love the way you express yourself. your videos are like a comfort place (just like chan's room:)
this video just came in the right moment. we've saved this to "watch later" and we were just procastinating to watch, cuz usually this kind of titles gives tips to start doing like right after the video ends, but today we just got into our deam college "IF" (it's a governamental school, for which you do an exam to get in) and we confess we're feeling a little bit without directions on how this is gonna be, but we only have control on what WE do, and probaly things are not gonna happen the way we imagine or want, and thats the way things are, we can only manage the way we deal with them. this whole video was like a conversation, an "advised conversation", with my eldest sister. TYSM jade💌
I have been called a try hard from the age of 14! I am 20 now and it has never stopped, but I have also had the most amazing opportunities to travel and work with industry professionals and I have amazing lecturer connections. I am so happy I stayed true to doing what I wanted and didn't let others change my mind. Hot girls try hard!
🦋🦋🦋 School starts tomorrow again for me after my half-terms and before watching the video, I felt a little discouraged because of my grades and so much stress coming up till Christmas. Your video made me gain a bit more confidence in me to dare to have big dreams and to work towards them ✨️ ✨️. Thank you so much ❤!! Also, greetings from Germany 🤗
Viel Erfolg für alles was du dir vorgenommen hast, du schaffst das ❤
I'm in year 11 rn and I have mocks in a week from now 😭😭I find it really hard to get the motivation to revise or do anything for that matter but this video has helped motivate me and I'll definitely be checking out pearson revise!! Tysm 😊🦋
🦋 Honestly I wish had a sister like this girl. You are such an inspiration Jade 🥰❤❤ sending you so much love ❤
I'm in my second year of uni and agree 100% with this. All these tips can be applied to uni as well! Would love to a big sis advice on uni xx
Thank you so much ✨
🦋 I am a high school student. I was feeling pretty bad about myself today and this video made me feel like I am powerful. It felt like an elder sister that I never had was giving me advice. Thank you Jade!!
🦋🦋 Blue butterflies are not available so you have to be satisfied with these gorgeous brown ones. I am well into my final year of uni and I still watched all of this video and let me tell you I loved it. This video healed some part of me. I just wanna say that I love how this beautiful human talks. Its like elixir to me and I love how passionate she is about all this. I can tell just by looking. There's a sparkle in your eyes and you're practically glowing jade. I love to see it. And every thing she says in the video is so true. As I was watching this I started thinking about younger me (I was also a learning enthusiast and I grew up with Hermione Granger, Tony stark and Peter parker. They were some of my biggest role models). I am so proud of her for doing the best she can with what she had(those were some pretty harsh times ooofve) and for never giving up on her passion for learning I am where I am because of her. I mean sure it could've been better but she did everything she could and I love her.
You just made my day!❤🦋
I am in highschool in Germany right now and I have always been feeling like I am missing out on social stuff because I am very focused on my education and learning.
Thank you Jade..you inspiring us🥺💖🐳
🦋heyy jade!! This video found me at a threshold moment in my life as I am about to write my IGCSE exams next week here in India :))
I just wanted to say that your story and everything that you embody continues to inspire me and so many young people across the globe and what a beautiful contribution that is to the world.
Sending you much much love 💗
🦋Hello Jade! I'm just beginning my junior year, and have been following you for years! It's amazing to see how much you've changed, and it only makes me motivated, and excited, to work harder as well! I'm also living near Lisbon, as I'm Portuguese, but I've traveled all over my whole life, so it's interesting seeing the different ways we cope with moving. I hope you enjoy living in Lisbon, and maybe I'll catch you around!
gahhhh Jade!! As someone who is in year 11 and is absolutely terrified for exams and is really struggling with my mental health and body image, thank you so much. You are so so motivating and inspirational. Thank you for being a beautiful human inside and out🦋✨💛
Hi Jade! I had a really tough day today and your video literally saved me! I have been struggling with anxiety and just a negative mindset for a while and a lot of things feel really hard. I would really really appreciate if you could do a video and share some of your tips regarding mental health and anxiety! No pressure though, do what you feel like!
Thank you so much for your fabulous videos! I love how you bring so much positivity to each of them and how they leave me feeling motivated to study and love myself (currently watching this while I should be doing maths revision but oh well)🦋
i'm in year 12 right now but this was still really useful, even though i've been at secondary school for 5 years! i want to make the most of sixth form and do as well as i can in my a levels! 🦋🦋
also what is your advice for how to start networking? you mention it a lot but i'm not sure how to approach it
I'm so glad you found it helpful!! I love how proactive you are and I hope year 12 is going well 💛 omg okay so for online networking, I recommend making a LinkedIn account. It's good practice to already start writing about your experiences (e.g the clubs you do, or projects outside of school) and to learn how to build a personal brand. Use the search tool to find professionals in your desired industry and send them a message asking for a 15-minute 'informational interview'. This is where you set up an informal online call and ask them about their experiences, learnings and advice! This is the best way to find out if you like certain industries/careers, to find potential mentors and even to find future jobs!! I'm sure the professionals will feel honoured that you want to hear about their experiences, and impressed that you're proactive at such a young age. It feels scary at first, but is SUCH an important skill to learn because 75% of jobs nowadays aren't even listed -- they're gotten via who you know.
For in-person networking, you can find careers events, lectures or anything in your realm of interest and just practise speaking to strangers. You've got this!!
@@UnJadedJade thank you so much!
Ilysm jade!! your literally an older sister we all need :))
🦋 I literally cannot put into words how much l love you, Jade, keep doing what you're doing. I love this channel sooo much 💞
Hey Jade, thank you so so so much for videos like this one!🦋
I amcurrently in 12. grade, so it is my last year of going to school (I am from Germany). 11. grade was the hardest time of my life, since I had a lot of mental health problems, and besides my boyfriend and some of my online friends that are absolute angels, you really helped me through this! I read your book the summer before 11. grade and all of your tipps helped me soo much! My grades did drop, because on some days I was simply not able to get up and study, but without you it would have been so much worse!
My dream is to do an Academic Gap Year in England next year! In case you do not know what that is exactly, basically you go to uni, but you can chose modules from whatever courses you want to and like get an idea if that is actually what you want to do. I love the idea of it, because I used to want to go to uni in England, but decided against it because it is so expensive (you probably know that going to uni is kind of for free in Germany). My parents are not quite convinced yet, because an Academic Gap Year at Essex costs 20.000 pounds or more and I totally get that they are not really willing to pay that much money, but your video gave me new strength and motivation to try and convince them, because this is my dream and it would be really sad if I gave up so easily!
So again, thank you sooo much!! 🦋🦋🦋
Oh and something else: I started my own UA-cam Channel recently! It is all about studying and keeping myself motivated for school while maybe also helping other people who are struggeling at the same time. It is called @AchiveWithMe-
When I see u post a new video, my whole day brightens. Thank you for giving us hope Jade ❤
🦋Hi Jade,
This video was what I needed.
Thank you for your support and amazing and helpful videos
Hi jade, I genuinely share most of what you believe to be important for self-expression and development. The way you described one’s mindset influences the way we act in school absolutely applies in my case and I’d say usually does for most people. However, I would’ve loved to see you perhaps immersing yourself in alternative ways, ways that do not lead you through school but still allow you and encourage you to express yourself (eg as an artist). Btw I’m a university student atm so I’ve got the who9e high school thing behind me, but I liked the idea of your vid anyways so I tuned in :) have a nice day
Currently in my twenties and wishing I would have known back then what I do now... would have made my middleschool/highschool experience a lot easier and better!
🦋I loved this so much :)) I am in Yr11 and this was such a good wake up call for me about how I am enough, I am doing enough and how I can I improve myself in the right way. Thank you :)
🦋 you're amazing ! I just wanted to say you have a lovely smile
thanks Jade...I needed this.
🦋 you’re so sweet thank you

It really, really will be. You've got this 💌
🦋 Thank you for the amazing video, Jade!! You've really inspired me to be even better during my high school years!! ❤❤
