It's okay Glenn. You caught it before things got out of control. You are very humble and honest. Don't split. Stay together and work it out especially if you and Yvette are in agreement to work it out.
Hearing Glen say that he and Yvette almost split broke my heart. I’ve been following this family since the beginning and I almost feel like I’m part of the family bc of it. I look up to them as a couple, people and parents so i hope they have found their peace and got out of the rut as we all know we all go through it.
One thing I admire about you and Yvette is how honest and genuine you’ve both have been. We are honestly so privileged to receive the content that you share because not everyone is willing to share journeys like this. It’s so beautiful how you’ve come to such a hard yet amazing realization of where you and your wife are at. Love you guys ❤
Many of us are being called to a purpose greater than just waking up everyday, going to work and doing the same mundane things over and over until we die. Unfortunately, most are too afraid to follow the calling inside us. I'm proud of you Glen and the chocolate babies are truly blessed to have you and Yvette as their parents.
I think the point is that there is purpose in what we call mundane. "The biggest stage i'll stand on is in my living room". Family is purpose, and purpose doesn't always mean what you do outside your home or away from your family.
That is exactly where I paused and I had to replay it again. What a POWERFUL statement that only a few, FEW people who are self aware enough to acknowledge that. I haven’t even finished the video yet but had to comment. I feel that as a parent, the best thing you can give your children is your time, that’s where it matters the most. They don’t need the money, technology, and all the stuff that society believes they need. They need a solid foundation where they can be CONSISTENTLY loved, disciplined, and challenged by TWO parents who are healthy and self aware enough to know there time is best well spent with their children instead of having the world raise them. They need their parents voice in their ears as much as their peers to combat the mess of ideologies that spreading out there. Love this video.
This is the content we need. This transparency. I know others have said this, but do not beat yourself up. You are really doing a great job. This social media space is still so new. We are all figuring this out!! People who think they have it together, do not!! My condolences about losing your sister 😢
I’m glad you took a step back. You were taking on more marriage and relationship initiatives when it was clear that your own marriage was struggling. You don’t need to be a relationship or parenting expert. Just focus on being the best husband and father 💙
I love this comment! When I was thinking, I was being Mom of the year, and realized I was delusional! I was subconsciously holding my children back, and failing them. Although I was the workaholic mom. That’s A Word for somebody!
@ I’m referring to the way they interacted in the HMAY podcasts and their family vlogs. He also admitted in this video and in multiple videos that their marriage was struggling. Simmer down.
Sending love to Yvette! Her grace is a wonderful thing - through the podcasts, videos and beyond, she seems to have remained patient, gracious and a lovely example of a wife to you.
My Brother Glenn. I appreciate you and this channel. I found you back in 2016 when I my wife was pregnant with our first of 3. You and I have grown so much from then. Ive learned from your content that and Ive shared it with so many other black families within our community. Take your time to be a better you we are all here rooting for your success!
Brother I've re-evaluated how I moved as a man and father because you had to courage to put a portion of your life in a public space. Everything you spoked on I've experienced/or am currently working through. Do what's best for your legacy. The world continues turn.
Glenn you said it: you're called to serve. There is a bigger picture for your family. Keep listening to your spirit man, and hold all the boundaries you need to. Protect your life, and serve the King. Love your vulnerability and you putting your family above social media.
"The biggest stage I'll ever stand on is right in my living room." - Man... That's some REAL TALK right there. As a fellow youtuber with kids, it feels like you're describing all my OWN struggles this year 😂 Thanks for posting. I hope things get better👍
"Finding joy anywhere" should be the ultimate goal for the human experience! I love Beleaf and Yvette's transparency, authenticity and growth which is why they'll always be successful with any endeavor they so choose. Sending them peace, clarity, strength, joy, and happiness for all their days. Love their content!
The ups and downs (in which we Grow from) Are a part of the journey. Sometimes we're in the in-between spaces as God prepares us for something else. You are doing excellent so Continue walking yourself through this process one step at a time. You are an inspiration. Thank you.
I'm ngl, I saw the difference in the content and I was concerned. I'm glad you took a step back and prioritized your family and marriage. They are always going to be the absolute most important thing and I'm glad you went to therapy and are trying to get it together. Chin up! Keep God in it and remember He's all around y'all. You got this.
The biggest things is asking Mom what she wants and prioritizing that because she has a heavy load….ask is she good is she ok…and everything will fall into place….kids feelings priority too and so are yours….but I say prioritize by who needs the most love and what their day looks like and why they need the most love 💕

my brother I'm 41 years old I have a dog I'm a only child and seeing how much joy you bring to the world and your family I just hope you know that you're an inspiration and that it's a privilege to have what you have and I'm thankful to be able to cherish moments for wanting more and what you have so keep rocking on brother
I pray thr Lord holds you and Yvette's hand and walks you through this difficult time to the other side. All our babies deserve a loving home with parents who love and respect each other .❤
I didn’t have a father figure in my life until I met my stepdad when I was 12 years old, then 8 years later he adopted me. Even before meeting him my greatest dream in life has been to be a great father, and being able to see so many examples of the uniqueness and intricacies that come with the responsibility is empowering. I love being able to tune in every now and then and get inspiration for what I will be one day, I’m so happy that you’ve taken time to reset and reinvest. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
The Wilderness season is key in God's development of his chosen people. We all must go through those redefining, rebirthing, resurrecting periods each time God takes us to the next level. Though it may seem like a step back, it's actually the required pruning in order to bear more fruit. You can't get around it, you must go through it. Consider it like an arrow, which must be pulled backwards to be shot (many feet) forward. It's not a negative sign, it's actually a positive sign when God pulls you back that you are someone he can, and wants, to use. I pray you never forget the lessons (and the blessings) of his love and provision during this season because when he releases you back into the fray it will be easy to revert into the pattern of self-preservation. But it's the Lord who preserves his people. His love, goodness, and guidance will be what carries you forward in this next incredible phase he has for you and your family. Your community is rooting for the Henry Clan and this will be a monumental moment in the story you tell to inspire others one day. Write it all down. Memorialize it for the generations to come. I hope you have found with the humbling of this journey a ton of humor, because life is funny and God got jokes for sure. Stay blessed. Can't wait to see what you (all) do next.
This comment was amazing. God bless you for your empathy and well rounded thought and expression of this point. God bless you. And to you glen and the family…. Everything in this comment was beautifully said and I hope it brings you comfort! God bless all to keep thriving in him.❤
When your book drops, I am definitely getting a copy. I am a husband and father of a 7 month old beautiful boy from Namibia and I love how you are helping us be the fathers God has called us to be.
I'm turning 40 in March. Feeling like I'm in a mid life crisis and experiencing many similar feelings as you. I appreciate your perspective regarding fatherhood. I often find myself devoting too much time to work and as a result, less time with my kids. This gave me a lot to reflect on. Thank you 🙏
Thank you Glen for being vulnerable with this community on such a high level. Your life has been a testament of God’s authority to be sovereign. Thank you for your “Yes”.
My greatest prayer for you is that (if he hasn't started already) you allow yourself to be taught by the holy spirit to be kind and tenderhearted towards yourself even when the results aren't what you had intended.....Not to lose an ounce of dignity...being still enough and allowing the Holy Spirit help throughout the restoration...the parts of Glen wounded, bruised and with putrefying sores that have not been balmed with tender compassion and understanding for relief and the parts that the pride of life shames us for...and be present enough to in your soul to mourn, weep, be accountable without blame and endure in that secret place and find beauty in that place, to heal and operate from overflow. With that said your videos have been encouraging and when men are healed and whole we get to see another spectrum of beauty.
This really resonated with me. I genuinely hope this is not taken with any offense. I’ve been a very casual watcher over the years. I’ve always loved what the family stood for, the personalities of the children and Yvette but sometimes in the beginning was then off by the brashness of Glenn. I always to responsibility for my perception considering it’s my personal sensitivity. I‘ve been healing how I relate to and with men/authority figures for years. I’ve struggled to go beyond casual viewing bc I’ve often felt triggered by Glenn and with this comment I recognize there’s a disconnect from compassion and tenderness that’s always kept me at a distance. Always felt Glenn, you are genuine and deeply well intended in relationship to your family but perhaps that has been the challenge for me. Wish you all so well and looking forward to following more closely. ❤
You have our support. I just feel privileged to be able to watch your content and follow your journey. All the best to you and your family Beleaf, excited for what’s to come ❤
Sorry for the loss of your sister. Prayers for you and your family's continued success. Definitely glad to know you and your wife are sticking it out. And I'm soo looking forward to your continued content. Your family is amazing 🎉🤎 🤗 🤎. I admire your courage. Prayers going up 🙏🏽
I love that saying of his… I love this family… not just the entertainment value but for the knowledge it gives in the most unexpected ways. I mean I’ve laughed… cried and said to myself… hmmmm yeeaaahhh. KEEP GOING BELEAF… Glenn… YOU ARE NEEDED AND LOVED… not just by ‘us’ but by your family. Love you and GOD loves you Glenn. Stay on… you are on purpose… YOU HAVE A BLESSED GIFT AND YOU ARE ON PURPOSE. (Tearing up a bit while typing this) ❤
I appreciate your vulnerability and transparency so much. It's not an easy thing to do the brave, deep, offline WORK but that's why you standout. Even if it's grey right now, I have no doubt that you will regain your footing and the pace that's right for you and your family. Take however long you need to post. We'll be here :)
I normally don’t comment on posts but I have watched you for years. You are just a beautiful person with a beautiful soul. ❤ I am so sorry to hear about your disappointments with your business. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.🙏🏾🙏🏾 Please know that people like yourself are very very special! You have given so many of us joy and your reflections in life and family are amazing, inspiring and so needed.❤🫶🏾
I don’t fully understand this video but all I can say in this season is to first seek the Kingdom of God and His righteous and everything else would be added… Matthew 6:33. We can’t do this life without Christ… Slow down, spend time with Him, hear His voice and allow Him to lead. Obedience is key.. This is advice I tell myself and working everyday to implement… May the Lord’s grace be upon you and your family. 🙏
Brother, I’m praying that the Lord Jesus will give you some direction concerning your family and some strength to you and Evette to fight for your marriage. Don’t allow satan and his agents to tear apart your marriage and your family. Fight against those demons that are fighting against you. A tip for you and Evette. Begin to pray every night at midnight for at least one hour and you’ll see a change. God bless you, brother. In Jesus name, Amen!
We all have ups and downs, and your viewers connect with you because you are honest, and you teach us how to be more honest and inspire us to show up the way we should for our families. I'm so excited and here for you. I'm so proud of you. This is an example. Pride is a drug and so hard to overcome as a Christian and as a black man at that. I couldn't be more proud of you.. This was so beautiful. You are leading beautifully, and whatever you thought the goal would look like, you're meeting the goal for your viewers. It just may look different than what you imagined. Vulnerability takes so much courage. You are my favorite father in media. I see men face these things in real life, but it's these things that matter the most that we never see in the media. Thank you so much. Please don't think you are letting us down. You have exceeded my expectations. I wouldn't expect to be so moved, and having real conversations makes us feel like we know you and we are rooting for you, man. I send your post to every man I love in my life because your content is so valuable.
So much respect for anyone who is genuine and real. Praying for you and your family. Still one of my favorite channels on YT and I look forward to your videos!
Great video you are helping me and others realize therapy is so needed thank you for your transparency blessings to you and your family your family is beautiful
Glen, now I know why I haven’t seen you at Rich’s Gym. I used to cross or your beautiful wife. I still remember how you encouraged me when I stop by that recording center. You are a good man.
Your ministry, and it one. Rather Christian based or not. Was and is still necessary. There's a lot of young fathers who better informed about being a good parent, husband, brother, and son. Your works are not in vain. We thank you for having that fire in you to gift the world to stride to be better, not perfect, but better. We are Praying for you, Evette, & the chocolate babies. We'll be here to support what you are willing to share. Rest, Restore, Renew 💜✊🏾🔥 P.S. the midwest is still affordable. I'm in Iowa, you may not be into our winters, but it is a great place for education, and family support.
Sounds like you made some hard and important decisions. I’m happy you all are staying aligned with the Lords will. Happy to see you all are doing well!
Proud of you, brother, and your family. Your journey has been an inspiration to some of us. I pray the good Lord keeps ordering your steps and perfecting that which concerns you and the family. May the Lord keep strengthening you as the leader of the home. Because, brother, the majority of people are looking up to you, and your family is large (me inclusive). Just understand that if the Lord is for you, no one can be against you, and you and the family will succeed in your endeavors regardless. In case you move to Ghana, we will give you an acre of land for free. God be with you and bless you
Been watching since a wee child! He’s living my dream fr fr now 🙂↕️ edit: 15:33 I stand corrected. I hope this time is deeply healing for you uncle father cousin 🫂❤️🌷
You will always be my favorite father figure and family. I've been a follow since the boys were approximately 1 and 2 years-old. The family grew with adding Anaya and Uzi.❤ I was lucky enough to get a pic with you an Yvette and a sneak peek of the kids. A happy day for me in Vista Ca on your nature Treasure Hunt. Blessings to you and Yvette in fighting through the challenges life brings. May you have continued strength within your family unit. I will forever cherish the moments I got to experience watching your family over the years. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Peace and Prosperity Ase
8:20 The writing songs .... your Therapist really is a genius!!! P. S Glenn, thank you so much for being ALL of you and sharing the journey with us. You're such an inspiration. I'm praying with you and for you and cheering you on ❤
Grief is a long arduous process that manifests itself in so many ways. It impacts your thoughts, goals, direction, relationship, family, and finances and throws you completely off-kilter. What you shared lastly about losing your sister fully clarifies your hardships and journey within the healing process. Praying you all will continue walking towards your greatness.
Thank you for sharing this video! There's a lot of gems of wisdom here that I personally feel has made me more mindful. I'm sure you know this but I will reiterate that your journey has and will continue to be as inspirational and personally the golden standard of being a devoted husband and father, thank you brother. btw, I was wondering if a Reddit/discord is there so that you could occasionally react to content from the community, that could be fun and insightful. No rush though😅
Glen I've been in that dark place more than once but without a family. I'm sorry you've been going through this. My sincere prayers will follow you no matter what. Glad your therapist is so good that's a priceless gift. Blessed Christmas to you and the family and a joyous New Year. 🎄 🔔🕊📯🌟🎅🤶🎁☃️🥁🕯🎄
Staying present and focusing on yourself, your wife and your family is top priority. Most families on social media break up because they lose the dynamics of family and it becomes more of a business. Please protect your family! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Praying that you and your family will continue to be grounded and rooted in His Plan, Purpose and Will for your lives! Most of all…be immersed in His Unwavering Love for ALL of you! I’m proud of you my brother! Continue to trust and lean on His Plan! God bless you!
Grief and loss has a way of catapulting us right into a place where we need to be. It sends us on this sacred spiral journey back to center, to self, to God. And often that looks like dealing with things along the way. The beautiful things is while we think we've ventured off track we're in fact exactly where we need to be. I'm praying that you and your family have the courage to keep doing the self work. And to wander deeper still into the "wilderness" with God as your shepherd. 🙏🏾🫶🏾
We, you (Glenn) & I, are exactly the same age. I have followed your channel since the boys were babies & now you have four children (glory to God). You have inspired me on my journey of fatherhood & though I have never met you, I look up to you! Don't stop. Keep going. The fact that you're holding on gives some of us out here hope to keep moving forward so keep holding, keep pushing & I believe that ALL things will work out in the end. I am at the same exact place & it is encouraging to hear your words at this moment. Looking forward to the fourth floor!
I want to commend you for your vulnerability. So many ppl will benefit from watching this video. I think most ppl in the influencer, content creator, YT space are going through this very thing. So many are suffering because they try to have a perfect online image when things aren’t going well, especially financially. You will come through this better than you were 💪🏾. You, Yvette, and the chocolate babies are amazing ❤
It would be so rad if you made pod cast episodes about parenting, marriage, life etc and maybe include the kids if they ever want to? Children see things so differently and it would be really fun to hear their perspective on things but totally understand if that’s not really the jam for yall or the kids either!
Thank you for sharing Glen, and good for you on reaching out for therapy. I’m sorry to hear what you and Yvette have gone through. I’ve been in that dark place and it took a lot to get me out of it, and you’re doing what’s good for you and the family. Just be you! You’re an amazing and loving father, with a loving family there to support you. Have been a follower for many years and seeing the family grow is precious and heart warming. Love ya’ll and looking forward to seeing what the future brings for the Henry’s 🫶🏼
Do what you have to do, take your time. Your family comes first and I hope that you receive financial blessings while being obedient in your role as a husband and father.
Your channel is like no other and as a mother of 3 with a husband that works all the time, I appreciate your content. My oldest son told me of your channel. May God’s will be done in your family.
Dope video brother, congrats on continuing your growth and journey. Reach out when you’re ready, I’m here in LA with a strong network. Proud of you brother. ✊🏾
Way to go Glenn. Love your honesty. Stay together and work at growing together. Proud of your decisions to not keep up with others. You all are doing what’s right for you all!!❤
It sounds like you just needed to interrupt the pattern you were in so you could create a new one. I'm looking forward to watching the journey of you all becoming the homesteading Henrys🥰
I have so much respect for you, your beautiful wife and the amazing kids you two have created. Thank you for sharing.Btw My daughter and her high school sweetheart had their first child at 19. Neither of them had a positive father role model growing up due to both of their parents being divorced. Just two strong mothers! About the time my grandson was born I found this amazing man/ father on UA-cam. The kind of man I would be proud to see my son in law grow to be. The kind of father I wanted for my grandkids and husband for my daughter. So I recommend his channel to him. He immediately found hope in the guidance he found there. That man was you! This channel has taught both my daughter and her partner how to be better parents and build a strong foundation! That was five years ago! They now have 4 kids. When their oldest was 3 they had a set of twins and when the twins were 14 months old they had their last baby. They have just bought their first home and continue to work hard. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with the world. You have helped not just fathers but whole families! I pray you truly understand what a gift you and your family have been to so many.❤️
Crazy to say I’ve watched your videos when I was in such a vulnerable position in my life and I’ve always found that your videos brought me comfort. It always gets better, you grow as a person n family, be patients with yourself be greatful and strive to do better day by day 💪🏼
I read the title and thought “if ever there were a course of action that needed less explanation! Because he was smart? Because he was wholesome? Because he loves his family?” God bless you, any which way!
“We have a lot of friends and family…but no support” Whew! That’s a whole episode in itself. I feel you on this deeply. I’m so glad that you an Yvette are pushing through and continuing to *choose* each other, even through the hard times. 💜🙏🏽 prayers fam
Don't be so hard on yourself! You're doing great!! My dad was a piece of work and made tons of mistakes, and we all turned out very well, happy, successful, healthy, saved, and loved him til the end. 😂❤ Everything is going to be just fine.
I commend you for your transparency, not everyone can be so true! Your feelings are validated and you express them whatever way you need that's therapeutic for you. Life has seasons and this season will soon pass...you're on the right track!!! 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾💕
From a child who’s father and mother was and still are supporting always present and have loved me before I was born YOU ARE SO VERY CORRECT. being there builds people with love and caring to move them and others forward. You have shown your true self and goals and dreams for your family. Keep being you keep being there.
Bro I still stick to my word. I hope I'm half a great father you are... one thing I'm learning in life is my father didn't have all the answers he was doing his best and I won't have all the write answers i just have to do my best. That all we all can do
Thank you for being so transparent and volunerable. May you,Yvette, and the children continue to be a blessed family unit. Staying in a healthy mental space is important, and it is a balance.
In ALL of it, In EVERY moment, and With EVERY experience, allow yourself GRACE. No matter what you teach your children, if they experience and feel your sadness, they too may inherit it. Truly find salvation, even in the darkness.🙏🏿
This is a good thing, you can redefine and find your way . If nothing else you can keep an online diary (private or posted) of this time. You can truly find your way, connect with the land, there is nothing more healing than the land.
It's okay Glenn. You caught it before things got out of control. You are very humble and honest. Don't split. Stay together and work it out especially if you and Yvette are in agreement to work it out.
Great comment
Agree. They've built too much as a family to not try
Hearing Glen say that he and Yvette almost split broke my heart. I’ve been following this family since the beginning and I almost feel like I’m part of the family bc of it. I look up to them as a couple, people and parents so i hope they have found their peace and got out of the rut as we all know we all go through it.
One thing I admire about you and Yvette is how honest and genuine you’ve both have been. We are honestly so privileged to receive the content that you share because not everyone is willing to share journeys like this. It’s so beautiful how you’ve come to such a hard yet amazing realization of where you and your wife are at. Love you guys ❤
Amen❤!
Many of us are being called to a purpose greater than just waking up everyday, going to work and doing the same mundane things over and over until we die. Unfortunately, most are too afraid to follow the calling inside us. I'm proud of you Glen and the chocolate babies are truly blessed to have you and Yvette as their parents.
I think the point is that there is purpose in what we call mundane. "The biggest stage i'll stand on is in my living room". Family is purpose, and purpose doesn't always mean what you do outside your home or away from your family.
Amen.
@@mrs.ezirike The point wasn't lost on me. There's more than one way to critically look at, engage with & contribute to a conversation. 😉
‘The biggest stage id ever stand on is my living room’ that’s powerful Beleaf👏

I love this level of transparency from a black man. God is using you for His glory! I’m still a strong supporter! 🎉

We are all figuring this out!! People who think they have it together, do not!! My condolences about losing your sister 😢
Growth is uncomfortable. This is the part no one wants to be honest about. Thank you for your honesty.

PLS PROTECT YA LIFE 🙏 that’s all that matters… we gon be here
I’m glad you took a step back. You were taking on more marriage and relationship initiatives when it was clear that your own marriage was struggling. You don’t need to be a relationship or parenting expert. Just focus on being the best husband and father 💙

I was subconsciously holding my children back, and failing them.

I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
THIS IS THE MOVE ✅🤎💅🏽👑🧬✅✅😩
I’ve been watching you since Theo and Uriah were babies. I’m proud of you and Yvette. Thank you for your transparency and sharing your family with us.
Sending love to Yvette! Her grace is a wonderful thing - through the podcasts, videos and beyond, she seems to have remained patient, gracious and a lovely example of a wife to you.
Agree. I saw her interview on the abstinence podcast and she's amazing. I pray they make it work
This is why I love you, man, and will always be a follower. I'm here because you are real and authentic.

Thanks for posting. I hope things get better👍

Amen❤!

In this world of fake and false it's refreshing to see truth and transparency. God bless and protect you on this journey called life.

The Wilderness season is key in God's development of his chosen people. We all must go through those redefining, rebirthing, resurrecting periods each time God takes us to the next level. Though it may seem like a step back, it's actually the required pruning in order to bear more fruit. You can't get around it, you must go through it. Consider it like an arrow, which must be pulled backwards to be shot (many feet) forward. It's not a negative sign, it's actually a positive sign when God pulls you back that you are someone he can, and wants, to use. I pray you never forget the lessons (and the blessings) of his love and provision during this season because when he releases you back into the fray it will be easy to revert into the pattern of self-preservation. But it's the Lord who preserves his people. His love, goodness, and guidance will be what carries you forward in this next incredible phase he has for you and your family.
Your community is rooting for the Henry Clan and this will be a monumental moment in the story you tell to inspire others one day. Write it all down. Memorialize it for the generations to come. I hope you have found with the humbling of this journey a ton of humor, because life is funny and God got jokes for sure. Stay blessed. Can't wait to see what you (all) do next.
That's the truth
This comment was amazing. God bless you for your empathy and well rounded thought and expression of this point. God bless you. And to you glen and the family…. Everything in this comment was beautifully said and I hope it brings you comfort! God bless all to keep thriving in him.❤
When your book drops, I am definitely getting a copy. I am a husband and father of a 7 month old beautiful boy from Namibia and I love how you are helping us be the fathers God has called us to be.
I'm turning 40 in March. Feeling like I'm in a mid life crisis and experiencing many similar feelings as you. I appreciate your perspective regarding fatherhood. I often find myself devoting too much time to work and as a result, less time with my kids. This gave me a lot to reflect on. Thank you 🙏
Thank you Glen for being vulnerable with this community on such a high level.
Your life has been a testament of God’s authority to be sovereign.
Thank you for your “Yes”.
My greatest prayer for you is that (if he hasn't started already) you allow yourself to be taught by the holy spirit to be kind and tenderhearted towards yourself even when the results aren't what you had intended.....Not to lose an ounce of dignity...being still enough and allowing the Holy Spirit help throughout the restoration...the parts of Glen wounded, bruised and with putrefying sores that have not been balmed with tender compassion and understanding for relief and the parts that the pride of life shames us for...and be present enough to in your soul to mourn, weep, be accountable without blame and endure in that secret place and find beauty in that place, to heal and operate from overflow. With that said your videos have been encouraging and when men are healed and whole we get to see another spectrum of beauty.
This really resonated with me. I genuinely hope this is not taken with any offense. I’ve been a very casual watcher over the years. I’ve always loved what the family stood for, the personalities of the children and Yvette but sometimes in the beginning was then off by the brashness of Glenn. I always to responsibility for my perception considering it’s my personal sensitivity. I‘ve been healing how I relate to and with men/authority figures for years. I’ve struggled to go beyond casual viewing bc I’ve often felt triggered by Glenn and with this comment I recognize there’s a disconnect from compassion and tenderness that’s always kept me at a distance. Always felt Glenn, you are genuine and deeply well intended in relationship to your family but perhaps that has been the challenge for me. Wish you all so well and looking forward to following more closely. ❤
💯
Damn. Had no idea. You never know what people are struggling with. So glad they are putting family first.
Glen, take as much time as you need. Put your family first. We'll be ok. And when you're ready, we'll be here.
This!
You have our support. I just feel privileged to be able to watch your content and follow your journey. All the best to you and your family Beleaf, excited for what’s to come ❤
Sorry for the loss of your sister. Prayers for you and your family's continued success. Definitely glad to know you and your wife are sticking it out. And I'm soo looking forward to your continued content. Your family is amazing 🎉🤎 🤗 🤎. I admire your courage. Prayers going up 🙏🏽
Your famous phrase has always been, "PROTECT YA LIFE..." and that's exactly what you did. 🤎
Yesss! 🥹🤎
I love that saying of his… I love this family… not just the entertainment value but for the knowledge it gives in the most unexpected ways. I mean I’ve laughed… cried and said to myself… hmmmm yeeaaahhh. KEEP GOING BELEAF… Glenn… YOU ARE NEEDED AND LOVED… not just by ‘us’ but by your family. Love you and GOD loves you Glenn. Stay on… you are on purpose… YOU HAVE A BLESSED GIFT AND YOU ARE ON PURPOSE. (Tearing up a bit while typing this) ❤
I love this comment, it summarizes my sentiments to a Tee. @@paulastewart6634
I appreciate your vulnerability and transparency so much. It's not an easy thing to do the brave, deep, offline WORK but that's why you standout. Even if it's grey right now, I have no doubt that you will regain your footing and the pace that's right for you and your family. Take however long you need to post. We'll be here :)
I don't know why people would have expectations of strangers. I don't even meet my own expectations of myself all the time.
Nothing wrong with resetting. It’s uncomfortable, but it’s nothing wrong with it. You got this Glen (and Yvette). 🙏🏾
I normally don’t comment on posts but I have watched you for years. You are just a beautiful person with a beautiful soul. ❤ I am so sorry to hear about your disappointments with your business. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.🙏🏾🙏🏾 Please know that people like yourself are very very special! You have given so many of us joy and your reflections in life and family are amazing, inspiring and so needed.❤🫶🏾
I don’t fully understand this video but all I can say in this season is to first seek the Kingdom of God and His righteous and everything else would be added… Matthew 6:33.
We can’t do this life without Christ… Slow down, spend time with Him, hear His voice and allow Him to lead. Obedience is key.. This is advice I tell myself and working everyday to implement…
May the Lord’s grace be upon you and your family. 🙏
🎯
Yep❤
Not understanding but continuing to preach… Very on brand
@@MISSMADISONMEDIAif you dont understand the comment, keep your thoughts to yourself 💖
Brother, I’m praying that the Lord Jesus will give you some direction concerning your family and some strength to you and Evette to fight for your marriage. Don’t allow satan and his agents to tear apart your marriage and your family. Fight against those demons that are fighting against you. A tip for you and Evette. Begin to pray every night at midnight for at least one hour and you’ll see a change. God bless you, brother. In Jesus name, Amen!
🤦🏿♂️ Didn't God Create "Satan" In The Allegorical "STORY"! We Have Been Permanently Damaged Via Colonialism And Abrahamic Religions 😏.
Amen! Stand in agreement!❤
Hallelujah!
We all have ups and downs, and your viewers connect with you because you are honest, and you teach us how to be more honest and inspire us to show up the way we should for our families. I'm so excited and here for you. I'm so proud of you. This is an example. Pride is a drug and so hard to overcome as a Christian and as a black man at that. I couldn't be more proud of you.. This was so beautiful. You are leading beautifully, and whatever you thought the goal would look like, you're meeting the goal for your viewers. It just may look different than what you imagined. Vulnerability takes so much courage. You are my favorite father in media. I see men face these things in real life, but it's these things that matter the most that we never see in the media. Thank you so much. Please don't think you are letting us down. You have exceeded my expectations. I wouldn't expect to be so moved, and having real conversations makes us feel like we know you and we are rooting for you, man. I send your post to every man I love in my life because your content is so valuable.
So much respect for anyone who is genuine and real. Praying for you and your family. Still one of my favorite channels on YT and I look forward to your videos!
"Grow as people." Amen. I'll be praying for you all tonight!
I truly appreciate your honest vulnerability. This gave me a lot of reassurance in my journey of fatherhood. 💯🤲🏾
Great video you are helping me and others realize therapy is so needed thank you for your transparency blessings to you and your family your family is beautiful
Glen, now I know why I haven’t seen you at Rich’s Gym. I used to cross or your beautiful wife. I still remember how you encouraged me when I stop by that recording center. You are a good man.
You're doing all this in real time, have grace and patience for yourself.
Thank you for inspiring us ✨️
Thassa word!
Your ministry, and it one. Rather Christian based or not. Was and is still necessary. There's a lot of young fathers who better informed about being a good parent, husband, brother, and son.
Your works are not in vain. We thank you for having that fire in you to gift the world to stride to be better, not perfect, but better.
We are Praying for you, Evette, & the chocolate babies. We'll be here to support what you are willing to share.
Rest, Restore, Renew 💜✊🏾🔥
P.S. the midwest is still affordable. I'm in Iowa, you may not be into our winters, but it is a great place for education, and family support.
Good to know about Iowa!
Sounds like you made some hard and important decisions. I’m happy you all are staying aligned with the Lords will. Happy to see you all are doing well!
Praying for you guys! Hugs!
If you and your family doesn’t make another, I hope you and your beautiful family have a joyful and wonderful life my friend ❤
Proud of you, brother, and your family. Your journey has been an inspiration to some of us. I pray the good Lord keeps ordering your steps and perfecting that which concerns you and the family. May the Lord keep strengthening you as the leader of the home. Because, brother, the majority of people are looking up to you, and your family is large (me inclusive). Just understand that if the Lord is for you, no one can be against you, and you and the family will succeed in your endeavors regardless. In case you move to Ghana, we will give you an acre of land for free. God be with you and bless you
Been watching since a wee child! He’s living my dream fr fr now 🙂↕️
edit: 15:33 I stand corrected. I hope this time is deeply healing for you uncle father cousin 🫂❤️🌷
Hang in there y’all! Praying for you and the family!! Love y’all! ❤️🙏🏾
Thank you for your transparency. Having to reset is uncomfortable.
You will always be my favorite father figure and family. I've been a follow since the boys were approximately 1 and 2 years-old. The family grew with adding Anaya and Uzi.❤ I was lucky enough to get a pic with you an Yvette and a sneak peek of the kids. A happy day for me in Vista Ca on your nature Treasure Hunt. Blessings to you and Yvette in fighting through the challenges life brings. May you have continued strength within your family unit. I will forever cherish the moments I got to experience watching your family over the years. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Peace and Prosperity Ase
8:20 The writing songs .... your Therapist really is a genius!!!
P. S Glenn, thank you so much for being ALL of you and sharing the journey with us. You're such an inspiration. I'm praying with you and for you and cheering you on ❤
We listen and we don't judge, I appreciate you opening up brother, I love you all❤❤❤
Grief is a long arduous process that manifests itself in so many ways. It impacts your thoughts, goals, direction, relationship, family, and finances and throws you completely off-kilter. What you shared lastly about losing your sister fully clarifies your hardships and journey within the healing process. Praying you all will continue walking towards your greatness.
Thank you for sharing this video! There's a lot of gems of wisdom here that I personally feel has made me more mindful. I'm sure you know this but I will reiterate that your journey has and will continue to be as inspirational and personally the golden standard of being a devoted husband and father, thank you brother.
btw, I was wondering if a Reddit/discord is there so that you could occasionally react to content from the community, that could be fun and insightful. No rush though😅
Glen I've been in that dark place more than once but without a family. I'm sorry you've been going through this. My sincere prayers will follow you no matter what. Glad your therapist is so good that's a priceless gift. Blessed Christmas to you and the family and a joyous New Year. 🎄 🔔🕊📯🌟🎅🤶🎁☃️🥁🕯🎄
Staying present and focusing on yourself, your wife and your family is top priority. Most families on social media break up because they lose the dynamics of family and it becomes more of a business. Please protect your family! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you for your transparency ❤
Praying that you and your family will continue to be grounded and rooted in His Plan, Purpose and Will for your lives! Most of all…be immersed in His Unwavering Love for ALL of you! I’m proud of you my brother! Continue to trust and lean on His Plan! God bless you!
Authenticity is what makes humans shine! You are shining! Much love to you and your beautiful family ♥️🙏🏼
“Not anxious in how other people think it should” creates a mystery and makes me interested in your unscripted journey. Thank you!
Grief and loss has a way of catapulting us right into a place where we need to be. It sends us on this sacred spiral journey back to center, to self, to God. And often that looks like dealing with things along the way. The beautiful things is while we think we've ventured off track we're in fact exactly where we need to be. I'm praying that you and your family have the courage to keep doing the self work. And to wander deeper still into the "wilderness" with God as your shepherd. 🙏🏾🫶🏾
Can't wait to take the ride with you on your new journey!❤ We love yall!!!
We, you (Glenn) & I, are exactly the same age. I have followed your channel since the boys were babies & now you have four children (glory to God). You have inspired me on my journey of fatherhood & though I have never met you, I look up to you! Don't stop. Keep going. The fact that you're holding on gives some of us out here hope to keep moving forward so keep holding, keep pushing & I believe that ALL things will work out in the end. I am at the same exact place & it is encouraging to hear your words at this moment. Looking forward to the fourth floor!
I want to commend you for your vulnerability. So many ppl will benefit from watching this video. I think most ppl in the influencer, content creator, YT space are going through this very thing. So many are suffering because they try to have a perfect online image when things aren’t going well, especially financially. You will come through this better than you were 💪🏾. You, Yvette, and the chocolate babies are amazing ❤
It would be so rad if you made pod cast episodes about parenting, marriage, life etc and maybe include the kids if they ever want to? Children see things so differently and it would be really fun to hear their perspective on things but totally understand if that’s not really the jam for yall or the kids either!
Thank you for sharing Glen, and good for you on reaching out for therapy. I’m sorry to hear what you and Yvette have gone through. I’ve been in that dark place and it took a lot to get me out of it, and you’re doing what’s good for you and the family. Just be you! You’re an amazing and loving father, with a loving family there to support you. Have been a follower for many years and seeing the family grow is precious and heart warming. Love ya’ll and looking forward to seeing what the future brings for the Henry’s 🫶🏼
Do what you have to do, take your time. Your family comes first and I hope that you receive financial blessings while being obedient in your role as a husband and father.
Your channel is like no other and as a mother of 3 with a husband that works all the time, I appreciate your content. My oldest son told me of your channel. May God’s will be done in your family.
Dope video brother, congrats on continuing your growth and journey. Reach out when you’re ready, I’m here in LA with a strong network. Proud of you brother. ✊🏾
Way to go Glenn. Love your honesty. Stay together and work at growing together. Proud of your decisions to not keep up with others. You all are doing what’s right for you all!!❤
I’m so glad you are happy to be alive! Prayers to you and the Henry family. I’m glad the Lord is still working through your lives!
It sounds like you just needed to interrupt the pattern you were in so you could create a new one. I'm looking forward to watching the journey of you all becoming the homesteading Henrys🥰
I have so much respect for you, your beautiful wife and the amazing kids you two have created. Thank you for sharing.Btw My daughter and her high school sweetheart had their first child at 19. Neither of them had a positive father role model growing up due to both of their parents being divorced. Just two strong mothers! About the time my grandson was born I found this amazing man/ father on UA-cam. The kind of man I would be proud to see my son in law grow to be. The kind of father I wanted for my grandkids and husband for my daughter. So I recommend his channel to him. He immediately found hope in the guidance he found there. That man was you! This channel has taught both my daughter and her partner how to be better parents and build a strong foundation! That was five years ago! They now have 4 kids. When their oldest was 3 they had a set of twins and when the twins were 14 months old they had their last baby. They have just bought their first home and continue to work hard. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with the world. You have helped not just fathers but whole families! I pray you truly understand what a gift you and your family have been to so many.❤️
Crazy to say I’ve watched your videos when I was in such a vulnerable position in my life and I’ve always found that your videos brought me comfort. It always gets better, you grow as a person n family, be patients with yourself be greatful and strive to do better day by day 💪🏼
I read the title and thought “if ever there were a course of action that needed less explanation! Because he was smart? Because he was wholesome? Because he loves his family?” God bless you, any which way!
“We have a lot of friends and family…but no support”
Whew! That’s a whole episode in itself. I feel you on this deeply.
I’m so glad that you an Yvette are pushing through and continuing to *choose* each other, even through the hard times. 💜🙏🏽 prayers fam
Indeed. When I was a single Mom and far from family, it almost drowned me. Community is essential.
Don't be so hard on yourself! You're doing great!! My dad was a piece of work and made tons of mistakes, and we all turned out very well, happy, successful, healthy, saved, and loved him til the end. 😂❤ Everything is going to be just fine.
Applauding your families journey to wellness and happiness! Do you!! Live full and daily joyful life experiences! Proud of yall.
Amen to that
"where have I gone wrong and how can I get back right" thank for your vulnerability.
Glad to you and the family thriving ❤❤
Nothing better for our overall wellbeing than country living!! You have made the best decision and will live as a king with your family!
I commend you for your transparency, not everyone can be so true! Your feelings are validated and you express them whatever way you need that's therapeutic for you. Life has seasons and this season will soon pass...you're on the right track!!! 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾💕
From a child who’s father and mother was and still are supporting always present and have loved me before I was born YOU ARE SO VERY CORRECT. being there builds people with love and caring to move them and others forward. You have shown your true self and goals and dreams for your family. Keep being you keep being there.
Priceless on so many levels. Family is everything.
Bro I still stick to my word. I hope I'm half a great father you are... one thing I'm learning in life is my father didn't have all the answers he was doing his best and I won't have all the write answers i just have to do my best. That all we all can do
Thank you for being so transparent and volunerable. May you,Yvette, and the children continue to be a blessed family unit. Staying in a healthy mental space is important, and it is a balance.
In ALL of it, In EVERY moment, and With EVERY experience, allow yourself GRACE. No matter what you teach your children, if they experience and feel your sadness, they too may inherit it. Truly find salvation, even in the darkness.🙏🏿
Y’all got this and we your family will be here to support, cheer and pray for yall. 🥰
This is a good thing, you can redefine and find your way . If nothing else you can keep an online diary (private or posted) of this time. You can truly find your way, connect with the land, there is nothing more healing than the land.
Thank You For Being So Transparent 💚💚💚
