Hope this was a helpful video for those of you who are keen on setting goals for this year...2022 is another opportunity for us to be the best versions of ourselves & live a fulfilled life to share with others 💕 sending you all love on this beautiful Wednesday 😊
I love that you’re sharing this today. I’m suddenly feeling an urgency to decide what to do since I’m “suddenly” 63-1/2 years old and feel as if time has slipped away and is a blur of work and constant financial juggling. Have you ever thought about just buying land, putting a shed or two on it for your work spaces, and a big carport to park Red Pepper under, big enough to be like a big covered porch? Then you can have land to garden, spaces to work, a home base, and still be able to travel at will?
Wow, was this encouragement right on time for confirmation of what I have been praying about and my life change decisions I am about to go through. Life is continually changing. Just getting older changes our perspectives on life and the things in which we desire. We accomplish one thing and move on to the next. When y'all stop worrying about how youtube wants you to do things and just be yourselves and do what you love, then, You will find your joy again and happiness will follow. You both seem the happiest when in God's nature and your hands in the dirt connecting with the land and amongst good friends. And that is being rich in my eyes. money cannot buy it. You are Exquisite You are Important Your perception of yourself defines your reality of your inner-self and how we see ourselves Is then how the world sees us. Be Blessed !
@@libbylong9059 Libby your ideas are fantastic ... and, a really good way to get Juby & Justin's goals started; then maybe they could build a home too on that property (down the road). I can visualize your ideas and they are super - I hope Juby sees your comment ... 🌄
Yay! You heading back in the right direction. I just feel it right for you three. You needed to leave North Carolina to discover that that was really where you needed to be..a home base is good for the soul.. I found that when I was traveling around in my bus. Two three months at a time. But was always good to get back home..till I started enjoying home more then traveling.. Zay will be happier and having a pet is also a life changer for the better.. get back to being you and all you love doing.. I found your channel way back when because I also went by moonflower.. I had a shop called moonflower. And strangely enough there was a shop next door called Meraki 😄🥰
At least for me, I didn't start watching your channel because of the travelling/nomadic life you had/have. I actually found your "Our dreads" video first and I fell in love with you guys!! I still watch this channel because whether you are in red peppa, travelling, seeing amazing things, or breaking down and talking real life struggles, I know Justin and Juby are always sincere and transparent. Ive loved the way you guys have such a lust for life, creativity, and community, I think that is what the Justin and Juby fans can expect from this channel when we watch your videos. Inspiration but also community, your heart felt talks always resonate deep within my soul and THAT is why I love watching you guys. Id almost say I like these videos more, people dont really talk about deep things anymore, because opening yourself up is hard- especially to the internet! Anyway, All Im saying I think the J&J fans love J&J......Not just the cool travel vlogs!!! Whatever content you choose to share, we are thankful to be included in your journey.
This is one of the best videos you have created. I could relate to everything you said, and yes children crave stability and routine. I'm also glad you discovered what will make you and your family happy, and where you feel your "home base" should be. A home base will provide not only stability for Azalea, but also for all of your family as individuals. Doesn't mean you can't travel when the "winds of change" hit you. I will enjoy watching your next adventure when the time comes. 😊
I loved this session. I am 71 and still learning and striving to make my life as meaningful as I feel it is meant to be. My affirmation today, is 'I am one with Everyone on the Planet'. I am currently reading "The Power of Now", again....and this time, I get it. The popular sentiment, 'When the student is ready....' seems to be true for me. I Enjoy watching your Family dynamics, but, today you were 'singing' to me! ✌🏻&.❤️
We are older homesteaders/gamers with no kids. I can't tell ya how much switch around that we have done over the years as soon as we got a home. Now, as we get in our senior years (I'll be 50 this year), we got our goats (new come coming in late spring), stocking up our deep freezers and adding pets. Our biggest project we want is a spa space. Soaking up water outside under the stars but blocked from our livestock seeing us constantly. Oh can't wait! Set you path for now and future. Our land connection is soooo important.
I feel soo stuck in life. I just turned 30 and it’s scary to feel this way. Thank you for always sharing such positive vibes and outlooks on life. I just deleted all my social media so I could live in the moment and not be distracted by this phone that was constantly blocking my vision. I am not yall of course and I could be totally wrong, but I get the feeling that y’all really enjoy and thrive in North Carolina. Love y’all and hope all is well!
Love the thought that our life is a book to write. It allows us to see bad moments as chapters, not the full story. All the best for you, i hope you could achieve all your goals
It feels like you spoke from my heart, and all your goals, apart from the youtube, are exactly what I have been craving and wanting, and I resonate so much with your reasons behind each. It's literally like you read my mind... Thank you for this video, it was so lovely and peaceful and enjoyable xx
I've been here since "Moon, Flower, Child". 💕 Congratulations on all the new growth and "old" growth. Excited for this new video, such a good way to connect with you 💕
all your goals for your 35th resonate so deeply with me, and I have none of them yet. Turning 32 in March, and I'm as far away from m family physically as I've ever been, away from most all of my friends safe for one very dear one. Everything tells me to basically get 'back home' and find my own private home there to fill with plants and gatherings... except for the fear of losing that one dear friend in this place.
This is such a beautiful video! Thank you for your realness and vulnerability. From the feeling of “home” to the desire of sisterhood, so much of what you shared really resonated with me.
Yay, NC!! Of course I'm biased because I live here...but, I've also traveled a lot and always come back to NC! With the seasons, the soil, the people, the mountains...the sea...and everything in between...NC is fantastic and always home and cozy! I hope you guys do come home to North Carolina...we miss you!
Oh Juby it's so good to put out your hopes, your dreams , your fears. I have just finished building an off grid home in Ontario ( I'm from North West Uk)in a beautiful part of nature and then my beautiful daughter has an amazing grandson and as much as I adore my abode, my nature and I'm so full of life ( I had a little health scare crop up out the blue sorted )but also made me re-evaluate...now my own personal self feels like it's been turned on its head! No-one is putting any pressure on me , I have a husband who will live wherever, kids that accept my self made challenges( building off grid) but I have never felt so lost on where to settle and it is exhausting, when all I want to be is happy and feel very much all of the feelings that are unsettled...settled ...I so get and appreciate where you are speaking from Juby. Maybe nobody might read this but something has helped in writing it down while shedding some tears. Thanks lovely Juby , always be true to yourself and what's right for your beautiful little girl and you and Jystin will find that right balance tigether ❤
the feelings of exhaustion will settle when we let go and let it become what it will! Your life sounds beautiful - perhaps we all need to be better about expressing gratitude for where we are now, I know I do. 💖
I' m a public librarian, old enough to be your mother. I' have just find you and I' m very gratefull to this encounter. You are a very wise and inspiring person. With this video you helped me see more clearly what I have to do in this new fase of my own life, because in three months I will be retired. Thank you for being here. Vera
Your video made me think of this quote, by Jodi Hills. “She wasn’t where she had been, she wasn’t where she was going…but she was on her way. And on her way she no longer looked for the answers, but held close the two things she knew for sure. One, if a day carried strength in the morning, peace in the evening, and a little joy in between…it was a good one. And two, you can live completely without complete understanding.”
Oh I wish I had the wisdom you have shared, when I was your age! Step back when things aren’t clear, don’t force things and enjoy each life stage - don’t skip ahead without enjoying the one before! Well done!
So enjoyed this video!!! I had a feeling you’d go back to NC!!! The world has gotten so crazy... from the “19” things to prices of just abt everything!!! And land!!!...oh my!!!.. Even tho all the other places sound wonderful...NC feels grounded for you...I feel like .. not everyone can roam all the time....although it’s exciting, there’s something to be said abt being grounded at home...Like the old saying goes.. “there’s no place like home.”... I hope you find your chunk of home where you can love, create , grow, brew tea and bees, art, garden and experience what ever you find that will bring your family to where it needs to be in the seasons that are ahead of you!!! Love and light😻👩🏻🦰💜
Clear, real, and super helpful in that you served as a reminder of steps I keep putting off...even though I want to take them to evolve into what's next. Thank you and blessings.
Yeah - You GO Mz Jubi !!! Sharing the ministry of your own truth is both uplifting and inspiring. Go YOU :) As a 58 y/o Aussie, I can affirm that following your own TRUE heart brings better outcomes for all. Respect, Gratitude, Fun and Humility ;) Big Lub to all XXX
I will also be 35 in three years and also want a lot of similar things. I feel like life is still just getting started. I went back to finish University so I can begin teaching and to buy a home that belongs to our family. I dream of it but I also can't ignore just how the universe has aligned for my family the past two or so years. I feel like I'm actually where I'm supposed to be for the first time in honestly my whole life. At the same time, I feel like I've lost myself personally and I need to work on finding who I am deep down. Thank you so much for this video, it has inspired me.
I, too, have a desire to build a herb and vegetable garden, and accumulate more houseplants, and get back into my art…away from outside noise clutter. Best Wishes on your journey 🙏🏻😇💜
Juby: I loved this Tea Time video ... watching it while I'm still snuggly and warm in my bed. I think your evaluation & re-set is fantastic for yourself and your beautiful family; options are a blessing. I so appreciate your approach and your voice is so calming and welcoming, especially with a touch of your British accent. Thank you for being so open and sharing these really personal feelings, goals and ideas with us here in your community. Hugs & peace from Southern California ~ 💖
I'd love to see some creative content, anything from painting, sewing, gardening, yoga, etc.! My favorite videos are you and Justin doing projects of any type,, and anything with Azalea's sweet face. I'll watch all your videos, but this made me excited for future content. A home renovation with your creative vision would be so amazing!!!
Hey Juby, absolutely loved this video. I’ve been following you guys for soooo long and this is the first time I’ve left a comment. I just wanted to reassure you that Azaleas behaviours and expressions are totally normal for a child of her age. Different emotions like fear and uncertainty (although she won’t know that’s what it is) are just manifestations of a new kind of awareness. My girls are teens and now but I remember when their little worlds started to become bigger and how they navigated through the changes. You are doing a fabulous job raising that little gift. My advice is to let her see and be part of the changes that you feel as well, always keep the lines of communication open which I know you will 🥰
I can't wait to see Azaleas reaction to getting back to the red pepper!! I also can't wait to see you guys find the perfect project home as I absolutely love your creativity
As two creative people, raising a creative child, trips will feed you but you need a place to be. A place you can have many projects going as you learn and grow artistically and spiritually. Enjoy the journey, it should not be stressful.
Juby, this is so exciting. I am truly looking forward to more videos like this and your goals are amazing. This video brought tears to my eyes because we can't just be for someone else we must be what and who we want to be for ourselves. I'm struggling with this as well and I am excited for us all to share ideas and learn from each other. Thank you for the words of wisdom and for having the privilege to join you with your cup of tea and quiet time.
Listening to you Juby and hearing how you both have been feeling about things in life. I am totally thinking that you all going back to North Carolina and doing ur own thing to build a homestead and live the way y'all want to is such a great idea. Wishing you the best on ur next journey in life. I know you will be making such a great decision to go that route of going back to North Carolina and making the best life possible for Azalea! Love ya!
You'll never know or understand just how much I appreciate you & this video. It's in our nature to want & need stability....a place to call home. It brings us the comfort & security we as humans need. I believe that's what Azalea calls home....Red Pepper. It has been her stability, where she made memories, where she reached milestones, where she felt secure & comfort. You are so very right about having a home base. We all need it. Sure you can still travel & enjoy the world but you also need that home base. We can't be in the moment if we feel "something else" tugging at us. Once you succumb to that tugging & find that place that brings you the security & comfort where you hang your memories, where you nourish your soul & baby then we can be in the moment wherever we are because we know we can always return to HOME. Thank you so very much for this sit down. Thank you for being so transparent & honest. I was glad to pause the video & make my tea & sit with you & be in the moment. When I was your age a therapist called that stage of my life "the greatest life transition I'll ever experience...growing OUT, not growing UP. finding OUT who & what I am, finding OUT what has brought me to the crossroads that I was at, finding OUT what I wanted in my future...." you get the picture. I am thoroughly enjoying this. Sending you many hugs. Hey, NC isn't so bad. I'll be a short 30 minutes from you guys if you return to Durham. I'd LOVE to be in this sisterhood. Thank you Juby. ♡
I love your family vlogs and your travels in Red Pepper but your latest content inspires me so much. I am also at a transition point in life trying to figure out who I am and what I want. Thank you for this deeper content, this time of reflection and inspiration.
Listen your your inner voice...settle on a little piece of land..keep da bus. ( Babylon by bus ) , still travel.. keep lil nugget grounded !! You both as well !! The world has changed in past 2 years..keep family strong n grounded !! Peace out !! One love people get ready !!!
I'm an artist, but I haven't created in years. I haven't wanted to. Lord,I wish I could sit down and talk to you. You'd love my plants. I've always wanted to live on a homestead. I think You'd be happy on your own. I'm so happy you shared...its given me pause....
I am happy that you guys have gained some clarity on what to do next. I really resonate with the need to let go of something (i.e. stop over-thinking about it) in order to figure out what you need to do. Thank you for sharing! Best of luck with the rest of 2022!!
also 35 in 3 years, in Mexico, and struggling with that where's home question, that keeps coming up. very similiar goals too! thanks for making this. its all going to be clear and come together in divine time. I trust.
Everything in moderation is better, it sounds like you’ve discovered the best of both worlds! Travel and Homesteading ! I’m looking forward to the journey 🌺
Hellloooo Juby! It’s so nice to finally meet you. Thus far I feel like I’ve known you as like the nice neighbor you exchange a few nice words with in the elevator or when checking on your mail. This video really introduced you. And Im so glad to meet you! I LOVE the idea of you creating genuine positive content for this channel. So often content creators can get unintentionally consumed by the need to produce the wow factor for us your following. Sometimes all it takes is kicking off all the layers and really see what matters to you and sharing that. That genuine exposure is truly the most long lasting wow factor in a real way. At least that’s how I feel! I love your goals. So big, so ambitious but so achievable because we have seen you manifest past challenging goals so this is just the next larger than life stage that I totally see you manifesting. Keep it coming. There is a benefit and an opportunity in every experience I have! 🥰
Ho my god Juby I can relate so much to what you've said about thinking so much about what to do next! and I find myself in this situation in life as well and actually right now too. Thank you 💗💫🌸
As we mature we go through many different levels /stages to get us to where we need to be. It can be hard and frightening but happy and fun. Embrace the levels and stages of a journey which will prepare you for the next place you need to be. Stay happy , grounded and safe. Love from NC
I def resonated with this tea time episode. Everything you are building up to...to manifest your goals...I am in the same lane. I have a 5 yr old daughter I want to surround with like minded beings...and create a tribal community and network. Best wishes on your journey!!!
Juby I LOVED this video. Tea time is relaxing, and recharges us . It allows our mind to reset. Btw Azalea has never known anything but the bus. It’s very normal for what she’s saying. Trust the process of the journey.
Love this video today Juby. You were very honest, authentic, and open with how you are doing, how you’re growing, and what you’re feeling. I appreciate you and where you are at in your life. Big Love and Keep Shining ✨✨✨
It’s great how you’re reframing a struggle into a positive experience. As well as, really allowing yourselves the freedom to move to the next phase in your lives and nourish ideas of the future. It reminds me to do the same, to breath and let the anxiety of making decisions, planning or general life go. It’d be great if you could share some resources or general inspo for creativity/ yoga and conscious living/ eco friendly living whether that be books, other UA-cam channels, documentaries; I feel like you’ve probably curated a wonderful library of positive vibes :) 🙌🏼
I look forward to seeing how you make your plans come to fruition. It really sounds like this is your natural self, having a base for your creative adventures and being part of a community. Oh and definitely get a pet, they bring so much happiness to a family x
Thank you so much for the sit down, real talk. We all get caught up and forget about what we want. I think you are so special and your videos are therapeutic. We all learn so much from you. I could listen to you and learn from you everyday. For such a young person you're so wise. Thank you for sharing your journey your family your experiences with all of us. Stay safe and can't wait to see what comes next.. 💚
Find the place where you can feel the various alternative life paths you've taken converging, because that's where you will feel the most whole. You might intuitively already know where that is, even if the you in this universe hasn't been there yet.
Yay for a project house! I am so much on the same vibe right now with trying to reduce plastic and packaging, wanting to grow my own food, eliminating cleaning chemicals in my house. I need to get back to yoga, and work on not defining myself with a job. Isn't being human enough? Also, yes to self care!
I love your vision for your life. Your aspirations seem to blossom from having a home base. Having a pet is a most remarkable experience of love btw. Please share more with us. Wishing the very best for you all xo
Hey Juby! You got this mama. You are capable of forging whatever path you want as an individual and for your household. If you do put some roots down in the US you should look into USDA home loans! The Gov will cover the down payment on a rural home so long as its outside city limits and you meet credit eligibility. All the best to you 💫
I so appreciate you sharing this with all of us. I think so many of us are feeling the same right now and it's good to feel connected. I know that I am fully jumping into things and it feels good to be growing and changing. Big love and huge hugs always to you and everyone here!💕✨
I live in the Pacific Northwest, CA. There still are places you can live in CA, they are in the far north. Humboldt and Del Norte counties still have gorgeous remote properties.
Glad your thinking of moving back to North Carolina, take one day at a time, enjoy each moment cause you'll never know it will be ur last..I live in North Carolina, moved here from NYC never regret it, best decision we made, set ur mind on wat you want and you will achieve it..Look at how much you and justin achieved.....Up n downs but in the end your stronger and wiser..Best of luck...🥰
I'm new to the channel... discovered u guys just over a month ago and have binged everything since since Azalea was born! I have a 4 month old so, I enjoy taking a little break from the day with one of ur videos when I sit to feed my little guy. I've loved watching Azalea grow. I have a 2.5 yr old at home so, I've related to alot of the terrible 2 talk😉. Keep the great content comming. Ur videos are a treasure of peace and calm in my otherwise hectic day. A reminder to be mindful and in the moment and appreciate family time (even when sometimes it can be quite overwhemlming). A reminder that there is strength in vulnerability. Juby, watching you navigate through work, personal life and motherhood and trying to find that balance has been inspirational too me, especially when I feel I've reached my limits. you do soo much!! It inspires me to reach for a little more and believe in myself. I've loved every minute. Thank you. Much ❤ to u all and happiness and fullfillment in the new year.
Hi guys I think your both so wonderful. I think the ceremony idea is fantastic the idea of sisterhood and friendship is something very special. I'm in London but I'd of loved to have been a part of that. Im 36 and don't really have friends really Ive been wanting to meet like minded people for a while. I'm really in to ethical organic living like you are. Meditation and yoga are important to me as well. Would of been nice to have been part of your ceremony and become friends. I watch all your videos your such an inspiration wish I was more like you. Hope azalea is doing well she's grown so much. Please reach out if you want me great to have you as a friend. Take care of yourselves Much love and blessings Carly xxxx
What you are saying I hear from so many others at this point in time. You will find like minded people wherever you go. North Carolina may not be as sexy as Mexico or Costa Rica, but it may just be home. You are most definitely not alone in all of this. Think less, feel more. When you arrive, you will know it.
I really appreciated this video. I actually watched it twice. I have always shared the feeling of indecision about the path I’m on and think the grass is greener somewhere else. I’m older than you so that feeling doesn’t automatically go away. I like the idea of setting goals. I’ve never been good at that. Thanks for this content. Keep it up!
Wow. What a truly heartwarming video. Oddly enough I am in an extremely similar situation and everything you said rang so true. It was really the reassurance that I needed that things can be okay in the now, while I'm trying to move forward to better in the future. Love your videos always!! 💘💘
While watching this video I knew I had to comment. And then I saw how many beautiful comments there were of the same mind as I wanted to express. And it made it obvious to me that your expressions were exactly what needed to be put out into the world at this moment. Continue to tap into it we're all here for it ✨
That was just lovely! More content like this please. Even at 42, this is so relatable! I really want to reevaluate my goals and this has inspired me. Thanks Juby!
The idea of you guys having a house and being able to put your own charm on it like you did with red peppa sounds so amazing. Of course it is only your decision but I would definitely be thrilled to be along for the ride
Thanks Juby!!! Excited to see and have you share with us your next chapters in life. Your channel has always been a favorite of mine and to see your process of things and different outlook on things in life has really help me grow, see things in a new way and enjoy the present as a new mom so thank you 🤩🤩🤩 Excited to see whats to come!!!!
EXCELLENT CHAT Juby! Being authentic and sharing such raw and heartfelt feelings with others makes all realize they are never alone in their journey -- we all experience these feelings at one time or another in life. Thank you my YT friend, I feel like I personally know you and would love to have a cup of tea with you. Keep digging and never give up on your dreams. Finding HOME is so important to ones well being, I get it! Looking forward to watching your journey as an individual, and as a family. Blessings and much success. PS > I absolutely love H. Jackson Brown Jr.'s quote so much that I printed it out. :) Thank you.
This was really inspiring to watch. Ive been following you guys off and on for awhile. And its been awhile but my partner was talking about how we should move to mexico for a couple months out of the year and I was feeling a bit concerned with the safety but we came across your mexico videos and they really gave me hope and reinspired me. I really love all you videos and your path. I feel i can relate. We have been experimenting with van/camper life for 2 years now and living in an 80s camper van now. I feel the struggle of wanting to have space for plants and being able to garden. As well as space to create and do art which isnt super ideal in a small space. Ive recently been motivated to start a UA-cam channel as hope to have a new creative hobby. We crave to have property and community as well but where we live as well everything is so expensive. We are just starting our van life journey but hope for a beautiful home base in the future too 💖 thanks for being so honest and open. Rooting for you guys!
Hope this was a helpful video for those of you who are keen on setting goals for this year...2022 is another opportunity for us to be the best versions of ourselves & live a fulfilled life to share with others 💕 sending you all love on this beautiful Wednesday 😊
I love that you’re sharing this today. I’m suddenly feeling an urgency to decide what to do since I’m “suddenly” 63-1/2 years old and feel as if time has slipped away and is a blur of work and constant financial juggling. Have you ever thought about just buying land, putting a shed or two on it for your work spaces, and a big carport to park Red Pepper under, big enough to be like a big covered porch? Then you can have land to garden, spaces to work, a home base, and still be able to travel at will?
Wow, was this encouragement right on time for confirmation of what I have been praying about and my life change decisions I am about to go through. Life is continually changing. Just getting older changes our perspectives on life and the things in which we desire. We accomplish one thing and move on to the next. When y'all stop worrying about how youtube wants you to do things and just be yourselves and do what you love, then, You will find your joy again and happiness will follow. You both seem the happiest when in God's nature and your hands in the dirt connecting with the land and amongst good friends. And that is being rich in my eyes. money cannot buy it.
You are Exquisite
You are Important
Your perception of yourself
defines your reality of your inner-self
and how we see ourselves
Is then how the world sees us.
Be Blessed !

Amen sister! That brings so much joy to my heart to know that you are a believer in God! He will always guide you!
At least for me, I didn't start watching your channel because of the travelling/nomadic life you had/have. I actually found your "Our dreads" video first and I fell in love with you guys!!

Anyway, All Im saying I think the J&J fans love J&J......Not just the cool travel vlogs!!! Whatever content you choose to share, we are thankful to be included in your journey.
I so agree they are an inspiration!
That’s how I discovered this channel, it was through hair makeovers, and the cutting of the dreads. I’ve been hooked ever since
Totally agree!
aww glad to hear you enjoyed it so much! Hoping to make it a monthly thing - A way for me to check in with myself and you guys ❣️
AGREE, I find it All fun to watch , beats anything on TV
This is one of the best videos you have created. I could relate to everything you said, and yes children crave stability and routine. I'm also glad you discovered what will make you and your family happy, and where you feel your "home base" should be. A home base will provide not only stability for Azalea, but also for all of your family as individuals. Doesn't mean you can't travel when the "winds of change" hit you. I will enjoy watching your next adventure when the time comes. 😊
you're too kind! thank you 💖 feeling good about the choices we've been making lately

Your presence is calm and welcoming. Very happy to have found your channel.
We are older homesteaders/gamers with no kids. I can't tell ya how much switch around that we have done over the years as soon as we got a home. Now, as we get in our senior years (I'll be 50 this year), we got our goats (new come coming in late spring), stocking up our deep freezers and adding pets. Our biggest project we want is a spa space. Soaking up water outside under the stars but blocked from our livestock seeing us constantly. Oh can't wait! Set you path for now and future.

Life is Chapters in a book. …very insightful conversation.
I feel soo stuck in life. I just turned 30 and it’s scary to feel this way. Thank you for always sharing such positive vibes and outlooks on life. I just deleted all my social media so I could live in the moment and not be distracted by this phone that was constantly blocking my vision.
I am not yall of course and I could be totally wrong, but I get the feeling that y’all really enjoy and thrive in North Carolina.
Love y’all and hope all is well!
Love the thought that our life is a book to write. It allows us to see bad moments as chapters, not the full story. All the best for you, i hope you could achieve all your goals
Loved tea time. Thank you for sharing yourself. Looking forward to more.
JUBY.... WHATEVER PATH YOU CHOOSE TO TAKE IS THE ONE THAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
It feels like you spoke from my heart, and all your goals, apart from the youtube, are exactly what I have been craving and wanting, and I resonate so much with your reasons behind each. It's literally like you read my mind... Thank you for this video, it was so lovely and peaceful and enjoyable xx
I've been here since "Moon, Flower, Child". 💕 Congratulations on all the new growth and "old" growth. Excited for this new video, such a good way to connect with you 💕
I just want to see you guys grow!!!! Don’t give up on your dreams, keep fighting. I live in NC, come on back home ❤️❤️❤️.
all your goals for your 35th resonate so deeply with me, and I have none of them yet. Turning 32 in March, and I'm as far away from m family physically as I've ever been, away from most all of my friends safe for one very dear one. Everything tells me to basically get 'back home' and find my own private home there to fill with plants and gatherings... except for the fear of losing that one dear friend in this place.
I watch your videos for you being you! Thank you 🙏🏻
This is such a beautiful video! Thank you for your realness and vulnerability. From the feeling of “home” to the desire of sisterhood, so much of what you shared really resonated with me.
Yay, NC!! Of course I'm biased because I live here...but, I've also traveled a lot and always come back to NC! With the seasons, the soil, the people, the mountains...the sea...and everything in between...NC is fantastic and always home and cozy! I hope you guys do come home to North Carolina...we miss you!
Oh Juby it's so good to put out your hopes, your dreams , your fears. I have just finished building an off grid home in Ontario ( I'm from North West Uk)in a beautiful part of nature and then my beautiful daughter has an amazing grandson and as much as I adore my abode, my nature and I'm so full of life ( I had a little health scare crop up out the blue sorted )but also made me re-evaluate...now my own personal self feels like it's been turned on its head! No-one is putting any pressure on me , I have a husband who will live wherever, kids that accept my self made challenges( building off grid) but I have never felt so lost on where to settle and it is exhausting, when all I want to be is happy and feel very much all of the feelings that are unsettled...settled ...I so get and appreciate where you are speaking from Juby. Maybe nobody might read this but something has helped in writing it down while shedding some tears. Thanks lovely Juby , always be true to yourself and what's right for your beautiful little girl and you and Jystin will find that right balance tigether ❤
the feelings of exhaustion will settle when we let go and let it become what it will! Your life sounds beautiful - perhaps we all need to be better about expressing gratitude for where we are now, I know I do. 💖
I' m a public librarian, old enough to be your mother. I' have just find you and I' m very gratefull to this encounter. You are a very wise and inspiring person. With this video you helped me see more clearly what I have to do in this new fase of my own life, because in three months I will be retired. Thank you for being here. Vera
Your video made me think of this quote, by Jodi Hills. “She wasn’t where she had been, she wasn’t where she was going…but she was on her way. And on her way she no longer looked for the answers, but held close the two things she knew for sure. One, if a day carried strength in the morning, peace in the evening, and a little joy in between…it was a good one. And two, you can live completely without complete understanding.”
so beautiful! thank you for sharing it with us!
Oh I wish I had the wisdom you have shared, when I was your age! Step back when things aren’t clear, don’t force things and enjoy each life stage - don’t skip ahead without enjoying the one before! Well done!
So enjoyed this video!!! I had a feeling you’d go back to NC!!! The world has gotten so crazy... from the “19” things to prices of just abt everything!!! And land!!!...oh my!!!.. Even tho all the other places sound wonderful...NC feels grounded for you...I feel like .. not everyone can roam all the time....although it’s exciting, there’s something to be said abt being grounded at home...Like the old saying goes.. “there’s no place like home.”... I hope you find your chunk of home where you can love, create , grow, brew tea and bees, art, garden and experience what ever you find that will bring your family to where it needs to be in the seasons that are ahead of you!!! Love and light😻👩🏻🦰💜
Clear, real, and super helpful in that you served as a reminder of steps I keep putting off...even though I want to take them to evolve into what's next. Thank you and blessings.
would love to see tips on gardening, yoga and creativity! You rock Juby!
Yeah - You GO Mz Jubi !!! Sharing the ministry of your own truth is both uplifting and inspiring.
Go YOU :) As a 58 y/o Aussie, I can affirm that following your own TRUE heart brings better outcomes for all. Respect, Gratitude, Fun and Humility ;)
Big Lub to all XXX
I will also be 35 in three years and also want a lot of similar things. I feel like life is still just getting started. I went back to finish University so I can begin teaching and to buy a home that belongs to our family. I dream of it but I also can't ignore just how the universe has aligned for my family the past two or so years. I feel like I'm actually where I'm supposed to be for the first time in honestly my whole life. At the same time, I feel like I've lost myself personally and I need to work on finding who I am deep down. Thank you so much for this video, it has inspired me.
I, too, have a desire to build a herb and vegetable garden, and accumulate more houseplants, and get back into my art…away from outside noise clutter. Best Wishes on your journey 🙏🏻😇💜
Juby: I loved this Tea Time video ... watching it while I'm still snuggly and warm in my bed. I think your evaluation & re-set is fantastic for yourself and your beautiful family; options are a blessing.
I so appreciate your approach and your voice is so calming and welcoming, especially with a touch of your British accent.
Thank you for being so open and sharing these really personal feelings, goals and ideas with us here in your community. Hugs & peace from Southern California ~ 💖
This video landed so perfectly in my life this evening. Thank you Juby!
I'd love to see some creative content, anything from painting, sewing, gardening, yoga, etc.! My favorite videos are you and Justin doing projects of any type,, and anything with Azalea's sweet face. I'll watch all your videos, but this made me excited for future content. A home renovation with your creative vision would be so amazing!!!
Hey Juby, absolutely loved this video. I’ve been following you guys for soooo long and this is the first time I’ve left a comment. I just wanted to reassure you that Azaleas behaviours and expressions are totally normal for a child of her age. Different emotions like fear and uncertainty (although she won’t know that’s what it is) are just manifestations of a new kind of awareness. My girls are teens and now but I remember when their little worlds started to become bigger and how they navigated through the changes. You are doing a fabulous job raising that little gift. My advice is to let her see and be part of the changes that you feel as well, always keep the lines of communication open which I know you will 🥰
I can't wait to see Azaleas reaction to getting back to the red pepper!! I also can't wait to see you guys find the perfect project home as I absolutely love your creativity
As two creative people, raising a creative child, trips will feed you but you need a place to be. A place you can have many projects going as you learn and grow artistically and spiritually. Enjoy the journey, it should not be stressful.
Wow, you are an amazing soul Juby
Juby, this is so exciting. I am truly looking forward to more videos like this and your goals are amazing. This video brought tears to my eyes because we can't just be for someone else we must be what and who we want to be for ourselves. I'm struggling with this as well and I am excited for us all to share ideas and learn from each other. Thank you for the words of wisdom and for having the privilege to join you with your cup of tea and quiet time.
glad to have you 💕
Listening to you Juby and hearing how you both have been feeling about things in life. I am totally thinking that you all going back to North Carolina and doing ur own thing to build a homestead and live the way y'all want to is such a great idea. Wishing you the best on ur next journey in life. I know you will be making such a great decision to go that route of going back to North Carolina and making the best life possible for Azalea! Love ya!
Hi Juby, I’m in a similar boat, cheers , here’s to our Bright/ Beautiful futures 🌻🌻🌻 much Light & ❤️ Marta
You'll never know or understand just how much I appreciate you & this video. It's in our nature to want & need stability....a place to call home. It brings us the comfort & security we as humans need. I believe that's what Azalea calls home....Red Pepper. It has been her stability, where she made memories, where she reached milestones, where she felt secure & comfort. You are so very right about having a home base. We all need it. Sure you can still travel & enjoy the world but you also need that home base. We can't be in the moment if we feel "something else" tugging at us. Once you succumb to that tugging & find that place that brings you the security & comfort where you hang your memories, where you nourish your soul & baby then we can be in the moment wherever we are because we know we can always return to HOME. Thank you so very much for this sit down. Thank you for being so transparent & honest. I was glad to pause the video & make my tea & sit with you & be in the moment. When I was your age a therapist called that stage of my life "the greatest life transition I'll ever experience...growing OUT, not growing UP. finding OUT who & what I am, finding OUT what has brought me to the crossroads that I was at, finding OUT what I wanted in my future...." you get the picture. I am thoroughly enjoying this. Sending you many hugs. Hey, NC isn't so bad. I'll be a short 30 minutes from you guys if you return to Durham. I'd LOVE to be in this sisterhood. Thank you Juby. ♡
I love your family vlogs and your travels in Red Pepper but your latest content inspires me so much. I am also at a transition point in life trying to figure out who I am and what I want. Thank you for this deeper content, this time of reflection and inspiration.
Thank you for sharing your goals and what’s next for you. Wishing you love and light on this next chapter!💞
Was great to listen to you! Thank you for sharing this sincerely.
God's Blessings to you and your family
Listen your your inner voice...settle on a little piece of land..keep da bus. ( Babylon by bus ) , still travel.. keep lil nugget grounded !! You both as well !! The world has changed in past 2 years..keep family strong n grounded !! Peace out !! One love people get ready !!!
I'm an artist, but I haven't created in years. I haven't wanted to. Lord,I wish I could sit down and talk to you. You'd love my plants. I've always wanted to live on a homestead. I think You'd be happy on your own. I'm so happy you shared...its given me pause....
perhaps one day we will
I am happy that you guys have gained some clarity on what to do next. I really resonate with the need to let go of something (i.e. stop over-thinking about it) in order to figure out what you need to do. Thank you for sharing! Best of luck with the rest of 2022!!
Thank you :) I needed this. Sending love and hugs your way.
also 35 in 3 years, in Mexico, and struggling with that where's home question, that keeps coming up. very similiar goals too! thanks for making this. its all going to be clear and come together in divine time. I trust.
Everything in moderation is better, it sounds like you’ve discovered the best of both worlds! Travel and Homesteading ! I’m looking forward to the journey 🌺
Oh my yes! Love the inspiration. We all are searching for what makes us happy. But the key is, finding what brings us Joy, true joy.
Hellloooo Juby! It’s so nice to finally meet you. Thus far I feel like I’ve known you as like the nice neighbor you exchange a few nice words with in the elevator or when checking on your mail. This video really introduced you. And Im so glad to meet you! I LOVE the idea of you creating genuine positive content for this channel. So often content creators can get unintentionally consumed by the need to produce the wow factor for us your following. Sometimes all it takes is kicking off all the layers and really see what matters to you and sharing that. That genuine exposure is truly the most long lasting wow factor in a real way. At least that’s how I feel! I love your goals. So big, so ambitious but so achievable because we have seen you manifest past challenging goals so this is just the next larger than life stage that I totally see you manifesting. Keep it coming. There is a benefit and an opportunity in every experience I have! 🥰
Ho my god Juby I can relate so much to what you've said about thinking so much about what to do next! and I find myself in this situation in life as well and actually right now too. Thank you 💗💫🌸
You need you plants Jubi, I totally get that🌿🌱🍃🌿🌱🍃
🌍 Juby~ Consider NC. So versatile. Close to the mtns, beaches, history, hiking trails, skiing etc.
As we mature we go through many different levels /stages to get us to where we need to be. It can be hard and frightening but happy and fun. Embrace the levels and stages of a journey which will prepare you for the next place you need to be. Stay happy , grounded and safe.
Love from NC
In the next three years, it would be fun to watch your medicinal garden tour.
manifesting! ✨
I def resonated with this tea time episode. Everything you are building up to...to manifest your goals...I am in the same lane. I have a 5 yr old daughter I want to surround with like minded beings...and create a tribal community and network. Best wishes on your journey!!!
Juby I LOVED this video. Tea time is relaxing, and recharges us . It allows our mind to reset. Btw Azalea has never known anything but the bus. It’s very normal for what she’s saying. Trust the process of the journey.
Love this video today Juby. You were very honest, authentic, and open with how you are doing, how you’re growing, and what you’re feeling. I appreciate you and where you are at in your life. Big Love and Keep Shining ✨✨✨
It’s great how you’re reframing a struggle into a positive experience. As well as, really allowing yourselves the freedom to move to the next phase in your lives and nourish ideas of the future. It reminds me to do the same, to breath and let the anxiety of making decisions, planning or general life go. It’d be great if you could share some resources or general inspo for creativity/ yoga and conscious living/ eco friendly living whether that be books, other UA-cam channels, documentaries; I feel like you’ve probably curated a wonderful library of positive vibes :) 🙌🏼
I look forward to seeing how you make your plans come to fruition. It really sounds like this is your natural self, having a base for your creative adventures and being part of a community. Oh and definitely get a pet, they bring so much happiness to a family x
Thank you so much for the sit down, real talk. We all get caught up and forget about what we want.
I think you are so special and your videos are therapeutic. We all learn so much from you. I could listen to you and learn from you everyday. For such a young person you're so wise. Thank you for sharing your journey your family your experiences with all of us. Stay safe and can't wait to see what comes next.. 💚
Find the place where you can feel the various alternative life paths you've taken converging, because that's where you will feel the most whole. You might intuitively already know where that is, even if the you in this universe hasn't been there yet.
Sounds like a beautiful future💙💚
Amazing Tea Time🙂
Yay for a project house! I am so much on the same vibe right now with trying to reduce plastic and packaging, wanting to grow my own food, eliminating cleaning chemicals in my house. I need to get back to yoga, and work on not defining myself with a job. Isn't being human enough? Also, yes to self care!
Absolutely loved loved this video one of your best connected with so many things you said looking forward to so many more tea times
Thank you for your positive energy sis 🥰
I remember Juby love you guys be safe God bless
Your an artist it will all come..I believe alot comes from where your at.and your surrounding to be happy. And artistic.much love to you three ♥️
Yes, more content like this. Very helpful!
Love! I resonate with alot of the truths you shared. Can't wait see this next chapter unfold ...for all of us. Thank you for sharing🙏🏾💚🌱
I love your vision for your life. Your aspirations seem to blossom from having a home base. Having a pet is a most remarkable experience of love btw. Please share more with us. Wishing the very best for you all xo
Hey Juby! You got this mama. You are capable of forging whatever path you want as an individual and for your household. If you do put some roots down in the US you should look into USDA home loans! The Gov will cover the down payment on a rural home so long as its outside city limits and you meet credit eligibility. All the best to you 💫
I love you Juby, and I love where this channel is going.
whoop whoop - new year = new channel vibes
I so appreciate you sharing this with all of us. I think so many of us are feeling the same right now and it's good to feel connected. I know that I am fully jumping into things and it feels good to be growing and changing. Big love and huge hugs always to you and everyone here!💕✨
I live in the Pacific Northwest, CA. There still are places you can live in CA, they are in the far north. Humboldt and Del Norte counties still have gorgeous remote properties.
Glad your thinking of moving back to North Carolina, take one day at a time, enjoy each moment cause you'll never know it will be ur last..I live in North Carolina, moved here from NYC never regret it, best decision we made, set ur mind on wat you want and you will achieve it..Look at how much you and justin achieved.....Up n downs but in the end your stronger and wiser..Best of luck...🥰
Love listening to you, you’re so calming and passionate all in one. Def more content like this ! 🙏🏼🦋
I'm new to the channel... discovered u guys just over a month ago and have binged everything since since Azalea was born! I have a 4 month old so, I enjoy taking a little break from the day with one of ur videos when I sit to feed my little guy. I've loved watching Azalea grow. I have a 2.5 yr old at home so, I've related to alot of the terrible 2 talk😉.
Keep the great content comming. Ur videos are a treasure of peace and calm in my otherwise hectic day. A reminder to be mindful and in the moment and appreciate family time (even when sometimes it can be quite overwhemlming). A reminder that there is strength in vulnerability. Juby, watching you navigate through work, personal life and motherhood and trying to find that balance has been inspirational too me, especially when I feel I've reached my limits. you do soo much!! It inspires me to reach for a little more and believe in myself. I've loved every minute. Thank you.
Much ❤ to u all and happiness and fullfillment in the new year.
welcome friend! thanks for the reminder - been making it a point to live that way each day lately 🌼
Hi guys I think your both so wonderful. I think the ceremony idea is fantastic the idea of sisterhood and friendship is something very special. I'm in London but I'd of loved to have been a part of that. Im 36 and don't really have friends really Ive been wanting to meet like minded people for a while. I'm really in to ethical organic living like you are. Meditation and yoga are important to me as well. Would of been nice to have been part of your ceremony and become friends. I watch all your videos your such an inspiration wish I was more like you. Hope azalea is doing well she's grown so much. Please reach out if you want me great to have you as a friend. Take care of yourselves Much love and blessings Carly xxxx
As an older mother/grandmother, the best advice is to Fill Your Pitcher! When you are constantly pouring out , you need to tip up your pitcher🙏
What you are saying I hear from so many others at this point in time. You will find like minded people wherever you go. North Carolina may not be as sexy as Mexico or Costa Rica, but it may just be home. You are most definitely not alone in all of this. Think less, feel more. When you arrive, you will know it.
I really appreciated this video. I actually watched it twice. I have always shared the feeling of indecision about the path I’m on and think the grass is greener somewhere else. I’m older than you so that feeling doesn’t automatically go away. I like the idea of setting goals. I’ve never been good at that. Thanks for this content. Keep it up!
Thank you for sharing 🙏🫂 such a beautiful journey ❤
Love you guys God bless you always ❤
This spoke to my soul in so many ways. Thanks for your openness. 💓
God bless you guys in your journey going forward in your lives. Peace & love
Nice to hear you speak on your faith. Love these candid talks. I hope you find your perfect place when time is right.
Wow. What a truly heartwarming video. Oddly enough I am in an extremely similar situation and everything you said rang so true. It was really the reassurance that I needed that things can be okay in the now, while I'm trying to move forward to better in the future. Love your videos always!! 💘💘
I LOVE this. Thank you Juby for sharing this video with us 🤍 I appreciate you so much. Thank you, thank you!
Luv listening ♥ to your true feelings about life in general.
While watching this video I knew I had to comment. And then I saw how many beautiful comments there were of the same mind as I wanted to express. And it made it obvious to me that your expressions were exactly what needed to be put out into the world at this moment. Continue to tap into it we're all here for it ✨
That was just lovely! More content like this please. Even at 42, this is so relatable! I really want to reevaluate my goals and this has inspired me. Thanks Juby!
The idea of you guys having a house and being able to put your own charm on it like you did with red peppa sounds so amazing. Of course it is only your decision but I would definitely be thrilled to be along for the ride
better buckle up - something is coming 🏡
You've articulated much of what I'm feeling now. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to more Tea Times.💖
I'd love to set some intentions for myself. A video about questions to ask yourself/how to approach that would be amazing
Thanks Juby!!! Excited to see and have you share with us your next chapters in life. Your channel has always been a favorite of mine and to see your process of things and different outlook on things in life has really help me grow, see things in a new way and enjoy the present as a new mom so thank you 🤩🤩🤩 Excited to see whats to come!!!!
EXCELLENT CHAT Juby! Being authentic and sharing such raw and heartfelt feelings with others makes all realize they are never alone in their journey -- we all experience these feelings at one time or another in life. Thank you my YT friend, I feel like I personally know you and would love to have a cup of tea with you. Keep digging and never give up on your dreams. Finding HOME is so important to ones well being, I get it! Looking forward to watching your journey as an individual, and as a family. Blessings and much success. PS > I absolutely love H. Jackson Brown Jr.'s quote so much that I printed it out. :) Thank you.
This was really inspiring to watch. Ive been following you guys off and on for awhile. And its been awhile but my partner was talking about how we should move to mexico for a couple months out of the year and I was feeling a bit concerned with the safety but we came across your mexico videos and they really gave me hope and reinspired me. I really love all you videos and your path. I feel i can relate. We have been experimenting with van/camper life for 2 years now and living in an 80s camper van now. I feel the struggle of wanting to have space for plants and being able to garden. As well as space to create and do art which isnt super ideal in a small space. Ive recently been motivated to start a UA-cam channel as hope to have a new creative hobby. We crave to have property and community as well but where we live as well everything is so expensive. We are just starting our van life journey but hope for a beautiful home base in the future too 💖 thanks for being so honest and open. Rooting for you guys!
