Linda's narration is just her saying what we're all thinking but never want to say
Thankyou Linda for this
LOVE YOU ❤️
her videos are nice to watch, great editing, encouraging & all, but rlly, they are repeating the same thing...a motivational speech voiceover and clips of her working out & eating...
@@mochicat8464 Honestly, I agree
Everyone breaks down sometimes and it's totally normal Linda, you got this!And I know you'll come out positively and beautiful. I love you so much
Me😁
Wow well said, “I’d rather be alone than being around people who bring in negative energy because I just don’t have the energy to be anything but myself” you’re so inspirational and have the right morals to be happy :))
It’s so true. After being surrounded by negativity my Freshman year of High School, I realized I’d rather be alone then be around people who bring negativity. Being around negativity changes you and makes you negative as well so sometimes it’s best to be alone, even if it hurts.
Been depressed this past 3 months, neglecting college work, strained relationship with my mum, and just been hit with the news of my parents divorcing today. But every time I watch your videos, they bring me hope to keep on fighting and to take care of myself. Thanks for always being such great help when I’m feeling low ❤️ (with tears pouring down my face)
Stay strong Bevy 🥺
I really for you my parents divorced as well into my sophomore year. Just be present with yourself and take days one at a time. Also if your relationship with is strained with your mum, distance can do wonders believe me. My relationship with my dad is not the same as it was after the divorce but I realize both my parents are happier apart than together
Sending love💜
be good friend you are strong take care of yourself
Sending love!
Awww I love you! So proud of the everything you’ve let go and made space to welcome in 💓🫂
She is the reason that I am able to eat everyday and not be so very hard on myself, I don’t need to burn every cal I consume and I don’t have a reason to feel guilty about it. THANK YOU LINDA!
Im a recovering anorexic and when Im allowed to go on youtube I come straight to your channel. You are truly amazing linda. You motivate me so much to keep pushing through all my horrible mental and physical feelings. This is one of the hardest things I have ever gone through in my life and you make me a little better when im at my worst. I Truly thank you linda ❤️
“ I don't have the energy to be anything than who I am”. Like wow, Linda you never fail to inspire me!
watching linda feels like a warm hug - it’s so comforting and safe and steers me towards better thoughts if im having intrusive ones
As someone who struggles with body image positivity, stress and anxiety, and struggles with wanting to workout and eat healthy, your videos inspire me so much Linda. I just want to say thank you for everything❤️
It’s Christmas and I’m alone crying all day. Fell upon this and feel closer to you than my own blood. Thank you
Hi, are you feeling better now? I'm sorry to hear you had a rough time during Christmas.
I am thank you :) you’re so sweet for asking
I’m in my final year of medical school and I’m *stressed* 24/7 and the whole covid situation makes everything a 100 times harder. If I’ve learned anything in 2021, it’s to take each day as it comes- life isn’t something I can dissect and plan and micromanage - and I’ve learned to accept that. I prioritise peace over everything else. I’m here for such a short time in the grand scheme of things and I’m not going to waste it stressing over things that might or might not happen. I had a hard year but it was better than 2020 by a mile. 2020 battered me and in 2021 I started to heal and I’ll continue to heal and thrive in ‘22, ‘23 while learning and growing.
LINDA thank you so much for everything that you do. You are such an inspiration for so many around the world and I know life can be hard but you are doing amazing things. I have been documenting my ED recovery on my own channel and have really admired you strength and dedication in smashing society's stupid rules about food and what our bodies SHOULD look like. Thank you for always being honest. Sending love ❤️
honestly ive been watching linda’s videos since 30k, and it feels as though im growing up with her. ive had a lot of ed’s, negative thoughts, and u can guess the rest. im so so proud of linda for helping me become a better person mentally and physically, but im mostly proud of her. please linda, never stop being happy 😊
Ok this is weird but i literally kept thinking you'd post today and you did. Ik you probably won't see this but Linda, you're such a beautiful and strong human being. You've been through so much and you stayed strong. I haven't been doing the best lately either so I relate to this video so much. I haven't even watched it but ik it's beautiful. We love you so much and we're so proud of you and your accomplishments! ❤️
I knowww, same! Immediately when I was wondering when she was going to post a video, I saw this video in my notifications, it’s so weird
@@umhi5743 ikr? I needed it
I love how real Linda is! I feel the same and having someone feel the same as opening up is so comforting.
LOVE YOU ❤️
watching someone who's literally soooo beautiful talk about her insecurities is honestly so relieving like phew even pretty people have bad feelings
the perfect christmas gift. it's okay not to be so okay. thank you for this, linda.
Does anyone else find themselves rewinding to listen and then to watch again and again? I love how your videos are jam packed with inspiration 🙂
You can't even imagine how much I suffered today. I was so nervous and feeling bad but I just tried to give rest to myself and calming my own self. Then I just saw you uploaded a new video and I was in seventh heaven. Thank you so much Linda for everything. You are one of my best friends for REAL. I love You so much xoxo
I'm crying rn thinking why can't i love myself and appreciate my body and eat whatever i want why am i making my life stressful by restricting myself so much i hope i can overcome my restriction and be happy again..
Thank you linda you've inspired me to love my body and appreciate myself.
everyone had these days or weeks or even months! sometimes. its okay to feel this way just know we are all proud of you and how far you've come with your journey with self love :)
Can I just say, that THIS is exactly what I needed right before the Holidays. THANK YOU LINDA, WE LOVE YOU!!!!
this notification came at the exact right time wow. i was struggling so bad with food and alimentation ect, i've been struggling in general recently. Thank you for this
I'm proud of you and all that you've accomplished in the last couple of years.
I appreciate how candid you are and I love that you're still making videos despite how you feel.
You've really helped me this pandemic. I have a better relationship with food and I workout for myself instead of trying to change my body because I don't like what I see.
So, thank you and I appreciate you :)
Linda, you are the person who has changed my midset and everytime I watch your videos you keep reminding me, that life isnt perfect, we are broken sometimes, we are hurt sometimes, we are depressed sometimes, but the key is to get up stronger and face the challenges. Thank You Linda, hope you are great
LINDA YOU ALWAYS manage to change my perspective on things and it honestly blows my mind. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
I literally got chills from your narration and I’m truly glad I happened to click on this videos 💓 you’re amazing and really brightened up my day :))
Woah, Linda - that was incredible. Your channel has honestly become such a safe and comforting spot for me, so thank you for being so open and honest. This was so relatable, but also so inspiring - you have made me feel like there's a light at the end of the tunnel. You are such a golden soul, Linda, and I hope you know how many lives you are changing. Keep loving yourself xx
Hope I become a person like her.. my confidence levels are raised rn as I was super mad at myself for not working out like since 2 months and my body did change and I didn't even go on a diet.. I hated myself but this just got me motivated
i've had a really rough past few months, especially dealing with food, and I know this sounds so cringey but this video just made me smile. knowing I'm not alone and this is all normal felt like a genuine hug through the screen. thank you so much linda and everyone else that can admit when they're struggling, because it honestly gives other people who are dealing with similar things strength.
I really needed this right now. I was so stressed for quite some time cause it's been three months since I've stopped working out I started eating way too much, I gained so much weight, I had no motivation and these school's/studies are killing me but after watching this video I feel better than before and kinda motivated
Thanks, Linda :)
Thank you so much for being this voice of kindness and reason 😭 your balance of taking care of yourself and giving yourself what you want/love is so inspiring
OMG I literally teared up while watching the whole video; thank u sm for doing this. Personally, today was a really though day and listening to this was all that I truly needed. ly queen
I recently stumbled onto this video, and I just want to tell you: Thank You. I've been feeling very low in my life right now and have been wanting to improve my life, but not know how. Thank you for showing me it's okay to want to focus on myself. Thank you for being another inspiration and motivation in my life. I hope both our journeys will continue and make 2022 our better year. Thank you!
I'm not crying, you are, I didn't even know I needed this today, but thank you for everything and you got this!
thank you so much linda for getting me through the last two years. i am forever greatful 💗
I’m going through a rough breakup right now and also moving into my own apartment for the first time. This video’s message about appreciating alone time and letting emotions be felt was so needed ❤️ thank you Linda!
i love how shes always honest with us, it just makes me feel so much better because i feel like i'm not alone with all my problems
These past few weeks have been SO rough and sprinkles of joy like your videos and your oat and pancake recipe are what help me make it through the day. I relate to so many of your struggles and what you talk about, and it helps me not feel so alone. Thank you so much, I'll never be able to thank you enough.
These videos are lit art and talk about how a lot of us are feeling now 🙌 the editing, the talk, the quotes and everything are perfect and not only help Linda, help us to make us stronger and better each day 🙏
I’m in my 60’s & you have put words to my journey to self love. you are amazing, social media does have some things of value, I wouldn’t have been able to have this audio visual pep talk without it, thank you for sharing your story💕
Linda is the love of my life! Her content brings me so much joy, I can’t even express it
When you start being honest with yourself that'd the best gift you can give to yourself 👏💙
Kudos Linda! Cause it's one of the Hardest thing to do!
i cant thank you enough for putting yourself out here. i have been struggling with fear of gaining weight and i have so much guilt over food and over exerise sometimes. but your channel is my safe place! you bring me so much comfort when it gets too overwhelming. please never stop
Genuinely one of the best videos I’ve ever seen. It was one of those moments but I feel so better after watching this. I’m so happy I’ve found your channel! Thank you for doing this
The way she talks to us makes my heart warm
Linda is everything I could ever ask for,for my mental health,my body,my mind and everything! Thank you so much Linda! LOVE YOU 💖💖
I always love how absolutely Raw and Real you are Linda you always hold a mirror up to actual issues and feelings that we all go through on the daily lately during these trying times...Thank you for being You we love you Linda please never change 😊
Ending made me cry. Your so inspiring to the point where I can see myself in you sometimes. Your doing an amazing job too!
Linda you have no idea how much you’ve helped me , ily soo much thank you for changing my mindset
Every one of your videos hit so close to home for me, thank you Linda, you have no idea how much you’ve helped me 🥰🥰
Linda I am about your age and it is so cool to be going through this journey with you. You are wise beyond our years and so helpful to me to remind me about loving where I am at in my life and accepting the bad days-- it will get better. Thank you.
Linda always seems to say exactly what I need to hear in every video... Thank you Linda, you are such a beautiful light in this world!
That’s so freaking comforting… I needed it. Thank you so much for what you’re doing here on UA-cam😭💜
These videos are so comforting it makes me emotional. I love you and keep doing this.
thank you for everything linda, you have no idea how much you and your videos mean to me and have helped me :’)
It is inspiring how you dont let the bad body image days or the days you turn to your old disordered habits turn into a relapse (thats how I interpreted it). Ive been struggeling w that for the past few months. Your voice is so calming to listen to! Thanks for the message you're spreading!❤💪
you are my comfort person and i love you so much. i’ve followed you since the start and it’s been a privilege to witness your soul shine stronger in every video, you inspire me so much thank you for encouraging me to be strong
Girl I am so glad I found your video. It hit my soul just right , you brought tears of resonation and release…Many blessings to you , beautiful soul ☮️💟❤️
I love how open and honest this vlog is Linda.
Sending love
yess another comforting and insightful video from Linda
This is a safe space for everyone to share. And you created that Linda. It's definitely something to be freaking proud of💕 Love from the Netherlands
i love you so much and thank you. you have no idea how refreshing it feels to hear these things from someone
I really started crying while watching this. I love you so much, you’re such an inspiration 🫶🏻❤️
Your videos help my mental health so much, Linda! I am so thankful that I found your channel this past year. :) You are so amazing for being your wonderful self, and for letting us have someone to connect to when we feel misunderstood. It might sound weird, but I love you like a best friend. Please keep up the great work!
Thank you so much Linda! I remember your videos brought such great comfort and support for me when I was physically and mentally destructing myself. I am in a much better mental space, and you are a great part of it, so every once in a while I re-watch your videos for the sence of comfort, or just because I want to look at those mouth watering recipes you make 😳. Also, this video came right on the date of my birthday! How cool is that?
Keep being the strong and amazing woman you are, great things will come to those who try and never give up 💖
This is what I've been working on telling myself the past two months and I've felt an incredible shift in my mental clarity. Be easy with yourself now, we have all had incredible challenges and heartaches over the past couple years and it's time for us to love ourselves and to heal. Sometimes the problem isn't what's in front of us, but what we're allowing to consume us. You got this!
is crazy how much i ralete you, i start to watch you a year ago, i think, just since you start and thank you so much, for everything i mean just for be there to me even when if you didn't know it, you're my confort youtuber, not pressure, just know it.
Linda you inspire me so much! Just had a marathon of your videos and I was so excited and directly clicked on it when I saw the notification!
Linda… I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! You’ve inspired me to try harder and to reach my goals. I could never feel as good as I do now if it weren’t for you. You’re an amazing person and you deserve love too
Linda I completely understand. These days, I feel exactly the same. I just can't seem to love myself anymore. Stay strong. Ur amazing! We love u! ♥️
I came across your channel today. I’ve been on youtube for 3 years and finally today, I found a channel (yours) that speaks to me in every sense of the word!
Im on the same path and your journey is soooooo relatable. 🥺
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for this video. It’s something I really needed to hear at this very moment. I am so thankful for you sharing your inner thoughts and struggles
Thank you for being you. We value you and are here for you🥺❤️. Thank you for being there for me when I didn’t know I needed it.
The narration is comforting! Everyone is trying too. Love you linda 💗
I’ve lost myself completely. I have no motivation to get out of bed anymore and to start working out again since i got covid. i was doing so good before i got covid and was finally starting to love myself, but then i lost a lot of weight… and i’m underweight again. it all just hurts knowing all that progress i made with glute and leg gains and weight gain is just gone… all for nothing. it took forever to get where i was and it took a week to lose it all. to lose myself once again. i don’t know when i’ll be happy, i don’t know when i’ll be back to myself, i don’t know when i’ll start working out again and love my body, but i do know that i will keep pushing to get myself out of bed and pushing myself to be the strong person i know i could be. 2022 will be my year. i WILL achieve most of my goals, if not all. i can not wait. i will make it.
I really needed this❤️. I'm moving across the country for my first job, and I'm terrified of being lonely. Thank you for reminding me that "alone" doesn't equate to "lonely", and that doing things by oneself (and for oneself) can actually be empowering.
Lots of love from South Africa 🤗
This video is so perfectly timed because I know exactly how you feel. I'm chronically stressed because of nursing school so I eat what I want to telling myself I'll workout, but then I never do because I'm either too stressed or too exhausted. Then my mental health bears the weight because I feel guilty about what I'm eating and that I'm not working out. I can always relate to your content and it always reminds me that it's okay if I'm not constantly working out and that I'm allowed to eat without feeling guilty. Thank you for always being transparent, Linda!
I loved this video so much and I’m proud of you! You, my girly, are killing it! So inspirational, so heartwarming!
Linda I love you and I’m so proud of YOU. I cannot express how much your videos have changed my life. You remind me why we’re all here. I’m so grateful for you and your videos. 💛
I hope you're doing well; you deserve only the best! You've helped me so, so much, and I just want to thank you.
Your mom and brother are real sweethearts…they swooped in quick with the participation awards and I think that’s awesome! Congrats on the nomination! And I wish I could’ve eaten the yummies ☺️
Linda really is my safe youtuber. I'm so proud of you and try to remember it's okay to have bad days, bad weeks, just a bad time and that doesn't mean its a bad life. 💕
why did this video make me cry??? thank you so much for sharing love and positivity ❤💜
I'm on a similar journey with ED recovery and I swear I tear up at every one of your videos, you always say/affirm exactly what I need to hear, and it's so validating. You are doing so well, and i'm so proud of u, Linda!!!!
i hope you know how much your videos help people. i needed this so much right now and watching this made me cry. thank you
you are so wonderful! pls never give up on yourself, I'm so thankful for you and I'm sure I'm not alone!
It's unbelievable how you publish videos right when I need it, I was just watching all your videos this morning. It's like we're connected!
Relating to this in a whole another level, I hope we can all heal.

Linda, you are glowing and I’m literally so happy to see that

The part where you said to connect with those who make your life richer really spoke out to me. Recently I had to cut off a friendship of 5 years and it was really hard. Even though it hurt I knew it had to be done for my mental health. Love you and your videos!!
Long awaited! I always look forward to your videos. I appreciate that you are honest and real ❤ Thank you for being you!
christmas has always been a hard time for me with all this because usually i either overeat and feel really uncomfortable in my body or restrict and miss out on all the amazing holiday food my family prepares. this video had perfect timing 💗
OH LINDA, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH 🥺💜THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY DAY BETTER. I HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY AND HEALTHY 💜
Your videos are just the best and the most inspiring, healing and relaxing ever ! YOU are the best influencer and youtuber ever ! You are really helping me recover and feel better everyday ! THANK YOU LINDA :)
Thank you so so much. Only met you on the inter webs today, but you are already a blessing for my heart. ❤️ wishing you all the best ✨
