Babyyyyyyyyyy, I can't lie, was so curious about that Kimberly situation! I 100% believe you. Your energy is DIFFERENT and authentic. That's all ima say...
I second that and that’s all ima say too lol.
Okay because real recognize real! ❤️
Me too! And I felt like Kim glossed over it. Now I understand why! Thanks for being open and vulnerable with us sis!
I 100% agree with this statement. You are very correct. Much love baby girl. You are very authentic.
Exactly. The truth is not surprising at all.
Regarding the person you mentioned, I stopped watching her was when she purchased her first home she said basically that if you don't have your first home by 25 you're doing something wrong. It was so tone deaf, out of touch, and immature that I immediately unsubbed. This coupled with various things that she's said over the years, she just wasn't my vibe. I'm glad you spoke about your experience.
I love Kim but she’s dead wrong on that in this current economy being able to buy your own house by 25 is a blessing. I know tons of people with good well paying jobs who are struggling just to stay afloat. It’s hard out here nowadays. Not like what it was when our parents were growing up. Even my mother told me that
Very true.
I really don't like bullies. I also understand not everyone is for everyone.
Oh I understand that homeownership is not as easy to achieve as it used to be. That's just facts.
Girl let me tell you I just said it to somebody else in the comment section😂😂😂😂 That's when I stopped listening I was 25 I'm 28 it's cold turkey
The person you spoke of in this video, I’ve gotten that feeling about her just from viewing her videos over the years. It’s like everyone is “beneath” her. When she made the slick, “I outgrew her” and “we weren’t friends” comments, I knew that was a bold face lie. I was talking to that video and saying, “Nah! I bet SHE outgrew YOU!” Lol. Congratulations in advance on paying off your student loans!
She's lowkey depressed. I've always sensed that about her.
It’s always interesting the way people can change up stories. It’s not beef on my end. I just don’t appreciate the lying with my name involved.
I couldn’t agree more!!@@cocosheabuttarosemaryqueen9204
Man listen she did a video that personally hurt my feelings so bad I was like I can't keep watching her. I'mma keep it very short she was saying that if you're not a homeowner about 24 your failure. And it wasn't just that it was so much negativity and just it was some of the meanest shit I've ever heard somebody saying I was like people have reasons why they're at home You have no right I'm 28.. I ain't seen that woman in years m😂😂
@@Mickeii617 Thank you for sharing this! I’ve wondered how the younger women receive her. I’m older, so my perspective could be different and just too old school 😆
Yesss girl WE WANT THE TIPS TO TRAVEL FOR ( ALMOST) FREE!!!!!😂 thanks in advance
Yes to the all caps. I know you mean business! I got y’all!!
I WAS BOUT TO SAY THIS! I SECOND. AND THIRD@@NaturalReign
Thanks for making it clear about the friendship. Though it isn’t any of our business. I completely understand and I agree with both of you in the sense that sometimes people are not always meant to be in your life long term
It’s definitely a reason, season, or lifetime thing. I pray that we all have the discernment to know the difference.
I'm glad to hear you clear up your ex- friendship. I could totally see some of those characteristics that you mentioned. It actually had me not watching that channel for awhile.
Stay nerdy!! We women need to invest and get financially together!! You are so smart! I know it’s hard to be open but you will bless people with your knowledge!! Also love hearing the updates!
Yes! Thank you! I’m learning to share more because I know I’m not the only one going through things. I’ve learned so much and I know I have so much to learn!
I agree!! Young women like her are reaching financial goals earlier in life than what’s normal and yall have financial literacy that we don’t get to experience
Oh my gosh i felt this. I just turned 27 last month and it really hit me that where I’m at right now is not conducive of where I wanna be in my 30s. I am COMPLETELY fed up so I’ve been making strides towards big changes, basically a whole rebrand to get there.
The key is letting ourself grow! We don't want to be in the same place forever.
I do remember on one of Kimberly cherelles videos she said you and her were never friends just work acquaintances 😮I thought that was sad she said that because i remember you two would go out for fun together she may have gotten jealous that you were in a relationship
Work acquaintances implies that our relationship revolved around just work. So idk how she said that with a straight face. I definitely saw the biggest switch up when I mentioned being in a relationship. So much so we stopped talking before she ever met him.
@@NaturalReign right there is proof she wasn’t real and I’m sorry you had to deal with such a fake and unauthentic person in your life. We all want to be happy and yes, sometimes it stings if our friends are in relationships and we haven’t found that special someone… but, being crude and loosing a close friend bc you’re unhappy with yourself is disgusting. I don’t mean to drag this out but you’re better off and God bless!
@@NaturalReigndamn the relationship part was mad relatable for me cause once I posted my bf to my close friend( I’m not ready to go public due to knowing I got hella ppl who watch me with evil eye that have no real reason to dislike me) and I noticed my close galpal( or so I thought ) didn’t like the story and when I spoke to her we had plans of being roommates she just decided she was gonna move back to New York instead . Didn’t even tell me. But Ik it’s because I’m in a relationship now. And she prob assumed I’d move in with him - me and him def are getting a space now that she dropped the ball plus I wanna see him more. Thus was def my sign. She stopped calling and checking on me once I posted him
@@naiya.nicole__ A lot of women in this gen are unable to get to the exclusive relationship stage and they get jealous but will never admit it. They will male bash and pretend like they don't want a relationship but their actions show otherwise. And when you try to speak on their obvious ill feelings they want to bash you too, calling you a pick me etc but in reality they are mad that they were not chosen by anyone.
"The best time to invest is before you're born" 😂😂😂
Lol listennn second best time is now 😂
Sis we need the travel points videos!! Trying to be like you!!
Kimberly always seemed insecure/jealous around you so I’m glad you were able to remove yourself from that situation 🙌🏾 So excited for the new content !! 😍🥰
Thanks for reminding us not to settle in all relationships ! You stand on business and I'm always scared to do it but this year I think I'm ready!!!
Jay, I’m not going to lie I was super curious as well bc what Kimberly said was sus and I had a feeling something else happened and she wasn’t being truthful and forth coming. Your energy and vibe is authentic and I believe your side of things. I started following Kimberly and then yourself when I first went natural and I loved both of your channels and the joint collaborations you both did. But over the past couple of yrs and since she purchased her new home she’s changed and so has her attitude and it’s not good. May God continue to bless you and you’re right about seasons, friendship and when it’s time to let ppl go when they’re not genuine… or when you sense they’re holding you back and are out there for you truly and authentically. I know you said this is it and you’re no longer going to comment, but please know you have support out here.
Glad you addressed it. Now we can all move on. ❤ I would love to see your travel tips.
I’m glad you finally spoke up on lil dusty! When she made that video talking crazy about you acting like yall weren’t friends I unsubscribed expeditiously cause it gave delusional. & she most definitely was sub’n you.
Cute girls keep it cute! Muah 💋 no bars!
The jealous gyrating delusional single.
Lil dusty though 😂
@@AlishaB8 yes cause they way she spoke on her was so nasty and distasteful. You can tell she’s jealous of her. I’m glad Jaelen spoke her truth but we knew before she even said anything
lol do you know what video this was ?
@@bign4816 No because I am genuinely curious to see this video. Like, messy me doesn't wanna stir up nothing, I'm just very curious to see how Kim handled her discourse on the subject in its entirety. Because, J, I feel - handled it with grace. But yeah, I need that video link.
Investing in yourself is one thing you will never regret. That goes for financially, socially, spiritually, physically, and emotionally. Super excited to see what your content brings this year
And yes sis we need the mocktail video cause I’m in struggle mode over here 😫
Well said! I’ve never regretted showing up for myself.
I gotta get my mocktail game up asap!
I clicked on this waaaaay too fast Lord help 🤣🤣🧡🧡 thank God you’re doing better though! The lord said we need to sit down 🤣
Thank you love!! I said things may be a little delayed, but definitely not denied! 🙌🏽
@@NaturalReign amen and AMEN!!! 👏🏽😩🙏🏽
Sisss we want alllll the content! I have always loved your energy on camera!
We so need that travel point tip video girl!
Thanks for the update! You look happy ❤
I would love the points hack video! Thanks for sharing
Yessss put us on to the travel tips! I loved this life update 💗
I just got off work...so glad you posted can't wait to hear whats going on the comments are Juiccyyyy.
Missed you gurl and happy that you are feeling better and back on it!! I know you have been back and forth with your travel vlog ventures, but start back we want to see it😬 I started learning more about travel hacking because of you and went to St. Maarten in December for a week for just $300 dollars!! Can't wait to see your financial journey take off, cause I'm on mine too. I wants all the tips and tricks you got🤗
Thank you for the updates and I am ready for the points lesson❣
Your hair is 👍🏼👍🏼🔥🔥🔥Enjoyed the update ❤
Get into the travel hacks omg! We need it!
Can definitely see you doing content for Amex or another card. Wishing you all of the BEST this year and beyond. New subbie 💕
YES TO TRAVEL CREDIT CARD VIDS!😳😍
Welcome back Jaelen, we missed you 🫶🏾
I missed you guys too! Glad I can start with a video just catching up with you guys!
Hey Chica, Welcome back 😊 and bring on the vlogs!!! ReignGang 💙
Hey sis! Happy to be back! 🫶🏽
It’s so great hearing about your future plans. Best wishes ❤
Thank you so much!
YES PLEASE to the travel info video! Thank you in advance 💜
Will do 🤗
Yess please to the video on traveling on credit card points! And on the mocktails ! Thank you for this video. So refreshing and authentic.
Thanks for the life update . Please do the travel video and keep the charlotte restaurants coming . I’m moving there next year !❤❤
Requesting the travel credit card hacking video! But praying you (& I) stand on business this year!
Year of discipline, saying no to the wrong things & yes to the right ones
Got you and absolutely wishing that for both of us this year! You got this 🙌🏽
I’ve always loved you and your videos! So genuine, authentic and entertaining! I’ve recently become a wash n’ go girly and I can’t wait to see your tips and tricks for growing long hair ❤
Jaelen I completely understand. I have two Science degrees and at the end of the day, they aren't serving me much. Im never one to discourage someone out of going to college, but it's not for everyone, and it doesn't end up benefitting everyone in the same ways. I feel like I invested so much time and money, for nothing (no big pay-off). In present-day, people our age are doing just fine without degrees!
Also, bump that noise about marriage. I got married _super early_ and it's one of my biggest regrets 🥴. Enjoy the rest of your twenties without being tied legally, emotionally, and financially to another person.
You're doing great, and you are successful! I cannot wait to see what this year has in store for you!
Awe! I can really see the growth you in! I started to see your growth when Dom came in your life, I think he is a positive attribute in your life! Sending you love and positive energy! Keep growing.
Welcome back Jaelen! I really don't care what you post, as long as you post.
Thank you for you support love 💕
Hey Girl Hey! I'm glad to see you are better. Yes, please do a travel points video. I do miss watching your videos. It doesn't have to be hair content. Continue to take care. ❤❤
Hey girl! I’m so glad to be back and feeling better. I feel like I have so much to share cuz I’m a whole travel points nerd! Can’t wait to share with y’all 🤗
Congratulations on starting the process towards debt free student loans. Travel hacks have me ready for Jaylen and chill vibes!
Happy New Year ☺️
Loved this update and excited about your future!
Happy new year!! Thank you love!
Okay! Birthday Twinnnn🎉🙌🏽
Same day?? Hey birthday twin!! 👋🏽😊
I would love to know more about your travelling on points! Teach us!! 🙌🏾😩
Yes please do a video on travel ! and how points work ❤️
I have so much to share!
So happy to see that you're posting!!!😁 Even if you feel like your life isn't vlog-able, I am here for the chit chat! Feels like a facetime call with a friend tbh
That makes me feel like I'm doing something right cuz this exactly how I catch up with my friends I haven't talked to in a while!
Jaelen, I love your honesty and vulnerability. We love any content you give us. Continue to grow in your own way and you will ALWAYS get our support.❤❤❤
Thank you for supporting boo!
Hi prima!!
Nice to know ur doing wonderful congrats!
Thanks for the CC tips .
Amoooo !!!❤
Hey prima! Yes I love using points to take trips! Amo 🤗❤️
girl my septum has been flipped up for years! 😭 I literally had the same thought a few days ago - maybe it’s time to put that version of me to rest and get it fully removed/close. love that you’re embracing change and newness. 2024 definitely feels like the year for it.
Glad to see you’re back! Please do the travel point hacking video❤
I think I stay so much in my own head about changing up the content, but y’all are giving me the motivation to share so much more! ❤️
@@NaturalReignI think you understand how much we love your personality. You could literally make a video about anything and I’d watch just because I love your personality 🥰
@@zacharydrake156 actually pulling on my heart strings 😢. Thank you sis! 💗
I mean besides the travel hack, we need the financial planning/retirement etc vids! Refreshing vid
One thing came from that Cuba trip...I got to meet you and I love it here. Keep growing Jaelen!
I’ll never take that for granted! You know I will sis! 🤗🫶🏽
I’m early! And so happy you uploaded your one of my favs!
Hey boo! I have so much planned for y’all. Glad to be back 🤗
I love this video because you talked about finances!! I'm trying to be in my travel bag this year because I've been so focused on paying off my student loans that I'm like I need to start treating myself. I need to look into those travel credit cards for sure and I keep saying I'm going to get a Roth IRA account so I can start my investments and plan for retirement. I just have so much I want to do to set myself up for success and happiness!! Also, I'm here for the vlogs, travel info, and the mocktail videos!
I’ve been watching you for so long and have been following your journey from UA-cam and Instagram and I’m happy that you’re in a space to be inspired to share with us again! I love that you’re so genuine and relatable-not just cause we have similar names 😂🥰. Looking forward to the new content!
PS I also colored my hair and had it bleached to add blonde and it also ruined all of my hard work so I’m with you girly. You’re still beautiful inside and out and we aren’t just our hair!
Make that travel video girl! We need that one! Also, don't worry about fake friends. Love on family and day 1's.
So glad to have you back!! And while it’s none of our business, I appreciate you giving us the real 💯. Much respect! And I’m here for all of your video ideas!
And now we can start fresh cuz I thought that question would never go away. So excited to bring y'all new content!
@@NaturalReign Love that!! I can’t wait!!! ❤️
Man! What I'd give to have a friend like you who has the knowledge in this space that wants to see me do well and offers that level of support. Not to say I don't have a BFF that shows up and shows out, but we're not into any social media so I find it extremely overwhelming to start but I'd like a side hustle that could become my full time gig cause this corporate life? Honey, I👏🏾am👏🏾over👏🏾it!! I just rented out my house and going to try starting a print on demand shop. 2024 goal is to get my finances up and get serious about my retirement while also taking advantage of not having a mortgage right now & taking a few trips & getting the jeep fixed up the way I want. Wishing the best for you in 2024 & accomplishing every goal you set!!
It's so good to see you again. I love your authenticity. It's a Scorpio thing! ♏️ Continue to thrive and shine, beautiful . 🙏🏾
Hey love! I love having these chats because y'all get to see the real me being me.
Would love a video on travel cc hacks!
I have the exact same issue with reading. Before college, I was a bookworm. Now, I’m done after a few pages. 😩 I needed to hear this.
girl PLEASE make that credit card / travel hack video !!
That’s called a Saturn return ❤❤ so glad you are in tune with your inner alignment!
It’s crazy because I could feel the shift 🙌🏽
I've heard you mentioned God. Let's leave the shifting to him and becareful of these discussions about your life having something to do with the stars. I know your trying to be polite to your viewers. Just a caution everything we need answers for is In Him once we believe in him. Peace be upon you 🙏❤️
Yes, mocktail receipes please!
TikTok has all the mocktail recipes and I want to try them out with y’all!
Please make a video on how you save for travel and also what you’re learning for your personal finance goals . I would love to use this for my personal growth as well !
Noted! Will do! 🤗
I missed you so much!! I screamed when you said you might be coming to my country... St. Lucia 😇🥰🥰 you will love it here❤
All the best for this new year🎉
Girl it’s been on my list for so long! Like I have to make it happen!! Wishing you an amazing new year as well! 🤗💗
@NaturalReign that's great!! thank youu 😊 ❤️
Hey I have missed you and I love the new intro
Hey boo! I missed y’all so much! I had to get y’all ALL the way caught up 🫶🏽
I felt you with that rebrand! I turn 25 in 3 months and I’m like ahhhh we need to start making better(financial & health decisions) that’ll be conducive to my 30s
Would love to see a video or videos of all things travel, don’t leave anything out girl 😅
I will definitely be adding that book to my need to read list. Also, your insight on finances was soo helpful! I’m going into my second year being self employed and have been thinking hard about how I’ll go about both saving for retirement and paying off my student loans
I’m so glad you found it helpful! I definitely feel like his book is worth the read! Working for yourself is so interesting. I feel like I’m always learning new things about how to better on the financial side of things. I think it should definitely be talked about more!
OMG I was like where my natural hair guru go.. I’ve been waiting on a video from you.. I will definitely be watching when I get off work
Hey boo! I’m right here 👋🏽🫶🏽
Come on to North Carolina. I’m born and raised here. Currently living in Raleigh but the south is great. You will love it here!
Welcome back 😮
Thank you thank you!
It's good to see you again! You're right certain friendships we have are not always for a long time they are for a season and to learn. I encourage you to not emotionally respond to your subbies in the comments based on hearsay. Find out for yourself what was said about you, move with discernment to determine if what is being said is TRUE or worth stirring up drama! I've been on UA-cam for a long time and I've seen how poisonous subbies can stir up pots and keep drama going (e.g. TashaK and Lovely Ti). Everyone has a side of an incident, speak your side and keep it at that and move on and prosper.
Oh I didn’t mention anything that I didn’t hear for myself. I just wanted to lay this topic to rest. I am at peace. 🤗
God will help us remove people from our lives. Like Maya Angelou said when people show you how they are believe them. You did the right thing. Btw, UA-cam has been playing games because I thought you weren’t uploading here anymore. Now I know you are back. Yay!❤
Yes to the credit card hack video 👏🏾
Yes drop the travel hacks❤
Please do a travel video, I'm so interested in using points and traveling for the low low.
This is such Saturn return activity! Investing in self, pivotal shifts in life, etc
I'm just feeling a big shift and I'm here for it!
Girl I was the same I was good through the pandemic and on 1/1/22 I found out I had covid, I’m from Chicago also but I live in Houston, I didn’t know you did supporter trips I would definitely like to go, I’m trying to transition my hair as well so I can’t wait to see more videos on that. Glad your back
Hey happy to see you and happt u doing well.
Happy to be back! I hope you’re doing well 🤗
Love this!!!! Thank you!!!
Of course! Glad you enjoyed 🤗
Plot twist.... J starts making travel hack content. Please break it down for those of us that could never 😂 can you make separate videos going in detail about each of the cards please 😊 make it give baby steps 😩🤭🤭
Your hair looks great!!!
Thank you so much! 🤗
PLEASE DO A TRAVEL CARD VIDEO ASAP!!!!!
Would love a video on the cards and points
Please do a video on travel!
Please make the video about travel and points!
Happy Monday 😊
Happy Monday boo!
I’m happy you are back. There is this saying that you should never mind losing a friend cause a real one would never be lost. Not saying yall wasn’t real , but it wasn’t long lasting and yall moving on. As you get older friends do drop and it is mostly growth. So it is what it is. I’m here for all content . Happy you are healthy and that you are back.
Gotta let go of whatever isn’t serving your growth 🙌🏽
@@NaturalReign point blank period sis❤️
yess! please do a video about travel hacking!
OH GIRL PLEASEEEEEE DO THE TRAVEL HACKING VIDEO. I just got into traveling and I’m trying to do it on a budget to the best of my ability so PLEASEEEEEE.
and welcome back baby girl. You’ve been missed 💕
I’m so happy to be back! I was in a creative funk. It took some time, but I’m back!
I’m so happy y’all want travel hack content! I love putting people on!
I completely understand. It seemed like you expected burnout and just needed a break. The break helped you enjoy life and come back when you were ready. We will always welcome you back with open arms because you are human. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us 💙💙💙💙 love you girl !
Please talk about travel and points etc. thank you 🙏🏾
Yes, yes, yes to all the possible content ideas. Mocktails are the best, from someone who is also sober curious. I NEED the travel hacks. And I’ll be 30 in December so I know the feeling of wanting to have more of a business mindset. Wishing you the best as always 🫶🏽
Siisssss I need the travel tips/hacks! I done took a year off from traveling and I’m ready to get back on it
I have so much to share!
Happy 2024🎉 I got Covid for the first time Dec. 23, 2023 but I only had a sore throat and fever for a couple of days and then I felt fine and I’m 73.
Hey Gurl would love to see you talk about using credit card points and what credit card you have. Also about how you are working on a financial plan like budgeting
Great video🥰
