Happy New Year for 2025 & beyond Yes please tell more about amazon, I'm also going in a better direction. As we age your body goes in different directions & I found trying to eat healthier changed my taste & going back to meats,chips , especially sweets my body didn't like it at all, it wanted fruit. Inflammation became a problem & I gained weight, now I'm going back to what my body needs, fruits & veggies. I'm giving myself grace and take things one day at a time, my goal in 2025 is to get of high blood pressure meds & I will be successful 🎉🎉🎉
@@OurBoyStory you're inspiring as well, I don't agree with u guys lifestyle as a Christian because God has a female wife for u both, but as a person we have to eat healthier. I'm a 67 young female & I intend to see 70 & beyond , I don't want other organs shutting down due to my food choices but it's a struggle I love all types of food. Have an amazing health journey 💕
Looks like you like green just as much as I do…. I was going to say that there is a COS store here, I was just telling an acquaintance that there was one in Buckhead. Happy New Year! I love that you’re being intentional with where you are choosing to spend your coins.
Green is a good look! Only recently did it become a dominant color in our clothes, housewares, etc. Thanks for the love, we’re trying to be more mindful and intentional but we know it will be a journey! Hope you stick around for it 🤞🏽🤞🏽
Happy New Years to both of you two! Change and more of savings this year is something I’m incorporating. As in switching patterns, routes and rearranging things in the home to invite new energy is always necessary in life. Cutting back on things that are not needed and being more aware of what I have coming in versus going out money wise. Best wishes this year!
Happy new year Ricky, and Alex! Just love you guys always enjoy your videos! And hanging in there don’t feel bad if you fell off the bandwagon, I did myself and trying to get back on track and stay on track. The holidays are very hard to not eat certain things when you celebrating the season of Christmas well really Thanksgiving and then Christmas those are always tough for me! But we’re going to make it we’re gonna hang in there and just keep the faith and keep working at it until we get to our go wait and keep it off, so stay strong and keep the faith and be encourage. I wish you guys all the best this year 2025 hard to believe 2025 but we’re here so let’s enjoy it. Take care guys. Look forward to seeing you all next week From the Wendy’s to Chicago ✌🏾🙌🏾😀🎉🤎
Thank you for that encouragement - no truer words, we’re going to get through this! Thank you for supporting our videos too, we’re excited to bring more and share more about the journey!
We appreciate the compliments! And yeah, we'll have to share more on why we changed shopping habits. Might need to be its own dedicated segment or video too!
@@TheGaloof My son is a sophomore in college and works there on school breaks. They really work them so hard. Also, there are some other practices…I’m looking forward to their video!
Happy New Year, guys! I like the way you've thought out your approach to changing processes and old habits as you move into 2025! Wishing you success and continued good communication and love in your relationship. Thank you for sharing. ❤
@Our Boy Story you should try taking a probiotic at nighttime for help with acid reflux. It worked wonders for me. Also if you have acid reflux often, you may want to consider having yourself tested for diabetes as a precautionary measure. Happy New Year! 🎉
This is awesome advice, never thought to take probiotics, I guess the right type matters because some have pretty high acid contents, right? Did the A1C test at the last checkup and all was clear there, but making it a priority in the next check up! Thank you! Happy New Year!
Thank you both for sharing yet another beautifully assembled vlog. I really appreciate not only the aesthetic beauty and artistry that y'all showcase through these videos, but also the profound insights of a more conscious living that you are seeking to display and embody. I know that as human beings, it's not always easy to do this, so I love how you also include the challenges of that journey. I will also say, that as a writer and educator myself, I love seeing y'all incorporate tactile writing utensils like pen/pencil to paper, lol. I truly believe that while it may seem like a little thing, doing things like writing with our own hands into a notebook, something that takes longer and more concentration to do, will help more people to retain a connection to a holistic sense of self and a deeper sense of intention in everything, as you are both expressing. Much love & I'm wishing you both the best year ahead. Happy 2025.
Thank you so much for your kind words, we really do appreciate the love and support! 🫶🏼 We know transitioning won’t be easy and we’re very honest about that! We’re excited to share that journey though. Z
Still watching - I have really bad acid reflux as well. I have to take Prilosec everyday to suppress the pain & prevent the acid from coming back up. It is definitely a struggle - especially at night when you’re trying to sleep. I hope that you’re able to get it under control.
Thank you so much! It’s settled down a good bit but it still feels active. I’m definitely adjusting diet and keeping nexium on me at all times! But the pain when trying to sleep is wild.
Had Gerd as well. It was caused by clothing to tight around my waist ...my belt. Eating greasy processed meats like mcdonalds breakfast sausages. Black people eat too much process foods and we expect to get away with it. Obesity , high blood pressure, kidney failure, and diabetes are too normalized in our community. I refer anyone reading this to Dr Berg and Dr Eckberg on youtube for GERD.
Happy New Year gents thanks for sharing your story with the world. I stopped purchasing from Amazon since watching the documentary "Buy Now". I was speechless watching it and the wastefulness and the no respect for the environment or the employees.
That's amazing! Glad you're sharing your awareness, we've had similar sentiments after seeing that documentary as well, in fact Buy Now is what prompted the change! Excited to see where this transition takes us. Happy new year!
…but what if the store uses Amazon? Just wondering if they confirmed that? I know some small businesses also use Amazon and other shipping companies similar to Amazon. Just curious as I am so considering some intentions in this area.
That’s a great question - in our experience, the things we bought via Amazon were mass produced things that we truly could’ve gotten directly from the supplier. So far, we’ve tracked down small businesses that have their own online storefront so we can buy direct. But we may encounter that issue and can report back… just at first thought, we may just choose to buy from another business.
We are so excited to share our first vlog of 2025 with you all! We hope some of what we share resonates. If so, let us know! #HappyNewYear ✨
Intention: Move towards completing my dissertation and graduation! #TeamEducators #LoveThis ♥️
Yesss love that! Alex knows all about that struggle. Wishing you the best!
@@OurBoyStory Thank You so much! Indeed, the epitome of late nights and early mornings but I shall be victorious! Congrats to Alex!!👏🏼

Happy New Year, I drink Olipop which is a plant based soda that helps with acid reflux.Other people like Poppy which also helps.
Thanks, didn’t know that! We slowed down with the carbonated waters though because it can raise blood pressure. Have you had that experience at all?
Thank you both for sharing yet another beautifully assembled vlog.

How do you find work in public policy? I have work experience in banking and IRS and I would love to transition into economic policy work.
…but what if the store uses Amazon? Just wondering if they confirmed that? I know some small businesses also use Amazon and other shipping companies similar to Amazon. Just curious as I am so considering some intentions in this area.
