This is a distillation of the best points from a bunch of expensive self-help books, plus years of lessons from therapy, and Anna is posting this on UA-cam for FREE. Thanks for making this so we can become the best version of ourselves!
Every time I hear something unfortunate even dramatic abt Anna's personal life I am in awe as she just projects this amazing and successful woman that has her life on a silver plate😊
Thank you SO MUCH for your immense vulnerability and wisdom. The story you shared of that director shocked me and really inspired me to keep being a champion of good in this world. Thank you for everything that you do, it really makes a difference.
I'm watching / rewatching basically all your videos bc I am going through my first heartbreak and they are the only comforting thing 🥲 Thank you so much for being so vulnerable and sharing your wisdom
She's comforted me a lot during various hard times in my life as well. I hope you come out of the other side stronger and better than before. Best of luck to you. 💜
I found anna years ago during my first heartbreak and her channel helped me so much (especially her one of break up videos which she was crying all the time made me realize i was not alone at all) And time really heals everything dont worry 🌸
I love the kind and generous heartwarming atmosphere that you create, your kind, easygoing, warm vibe. ❤I like the essence how you live on. I need to be true to myself and find a job I am passionate about. I want to find a way to live as who I really am.
Love seeing you step into your power and become your destined self! I have also put in the work and my life has changed so much the past 5 years. I’m in love with myself and my life!
Thank you, Anna! I'm glad that you chose to walk away from those things and become the person you are now today. It didn't just benefit yourself, but also us, the community that you created.
Anna you are inspirational, thanks for all these videos, ima go through the check *list over the next week and write myself a list, who else loves lists ❤
If people are skewed they tend to plant themselves in a manner that you can somehow circumvent or penetrate through. So all the better if they do it unknowingly. The best part is that they always tend to plant themselves in more or less the same way so every time they plot something you'll tend to see the same patterns. As long as they don't change themselves as individuals, you can always change up your own patterns against them to get ahead. The heart is where everything starts and as much as anyone mentions it, a lot of people won't see it, even in themselves.
Thank you for your encouragement and personal experience as you're absolutely correct that we can indeed "walk away" from the pressures of life to better ourselves and have better and healthier lives. 😉
@@scottw.3258 everyone is responsible for their own actions. if you say shitty things, it's not the fault of the person who you're saying it to: it's your own fault. People who say otherwise usually have some guilt that they don't want to acknowledge
I'm so sorry your mother did that to you... I'm unlearning financial blocks myself from one of my parents... It's hard. I associate money as a way for people to worm their way out of committing to me or others emotionally... "Hey, you can't be mad at me for this bad thing I did because I just bought the family expensive gifts/a family holiday/blah blah..." I realise I'm privileged that such was my upbringing... But it also set me up with fears around money that have kept me poor for a long time as I struggle to trust money. I am working on changing this attitude towards money mentally, it's taking some time but you know, it's progress... I will overcome it with time.
You have to admire Anna for making her own way in a media career. She realized to avoid transactional relationships with a TV network or movie studio she would have to do it herself. And she does. Thanks to Daddy Squarespace and Mommy BetterHelp! And she has something in common with Stephen Colbert. He lost his father and two older brothers in a terrible plane crash. And he still grieves them today. Just the way Anna does with her sister.
Thank you for putting out this type of content. I showed this to my niece who was struggling with trauma so deep she couldn't even see it and was destroying her life and relationships with these coping mechanisms that were no longer serving her. Watching your content helped her see that even pretty, cool, intelligent women such as yourself have deep issues and wounds and that success in life isn't just for those who grow up in happy healthy homes. She decided to go into treatment and she will be better for it in the long run. Thank you! It means a lot to me.
Damn this couldn't have come at a better time. I've been stressing and spiraling a little bit lately about all kinds of things. This helped put things back into perspective, and I have a plan. Thanks again Anna ❤
I have a Deja vue feeling! I understand you Anna, sometimes you're in a spiral, and you think you can only go faster to try to go out of it... but maybe you can change your position, and the perspective might change.
Anna Omgggg 😍 your back on UA-cam and making videos yahoo. I'm a new subscriber who went through your videos like no tomorrow and it's been only 6 months so far and let me tell you girl, first of all thank you, your videos have changed alot in me and its a wonderful Cheat sheet 😏😁😉 so I don't need to go through all of it 🥳 and suddenly I realized that I have a few videos left to watch and I needed to slow down 👇 on watching because if I'm done what am I gona watch and seen you are back today make me happy 😊 woot woot 🥳 I will release the beast on me again and I will continue watching the rest of your videos without being afraid that I will run out of episodes 😂😂😂🎉
Life in 30s is really very busy. Being young was carefree and not very responsible. So now it’s gone abit different . It’s all in news and situation is just the way it is
Love your videos Anna, you are really strong and inspiring. I know this is not a smear campaign but who is that director who screamed at you? Would hate to watch his movies.
Omg that script is awful. Please never play those humiliating roles! Thank you for not doing demeaning jobs like that! Choose you! Thank you for sharing!
00:04 Everyone says self-awareness. How do YOU actually practice this? Seems like ALOT of work. I don't mind the with, but how do YOU do it?Moment by moment or situation? What do you do? Thanks (I do try to be aware of my own feelings and responses to things.)
Knowing how you were a victim of racism Anna makes me angry. You seem like such a beautiful person, inside and out. You don't deserve that kind of treatment. No one does.
1. Self-awarness
2. Envision your life
3. Discipline
4. Create your reality
1. I farted
2. It's likely to smell really bad
3. I'll try to like the smell
4. After smelling my farts I will be able to cast spells ✨
‘Dysfunctional family dynamics’ as heirlooms is the best summary of ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’.
dudeee are we subscribed to the same channels? I see you everywhere 😂❤
@@nehaghosh8584 I think the algorithm brought us here. Happy to see you here!
Not enough Black
People we're in that
Film. I saw it. Asians

Is she posting it for 'free' though?
@@aquarius254 did you pay money to watch this? that's weird. I didn't
"When you feel hopeless, remember you are not powerless. You always have the ability to create your reality. "
Thank you Anna !
I’m so sorry the industry has been so terrible, and thank you for sharing your insight with us. We control our reality!
You asked me to write this comment because you control your reality so well
Every time I hear something unfortunate even dramatic abt Anna's personal life I am in awe as she just projects this amazing and successful woman that has her life on a silver plate😊
Self awareness, envision your life, self discipline, create your reality all part of Emotional Intelligence. Thanks Anna. Rocket fuel for the soul
What is a soul and why does it need rocket fuel?
I love how the books are organized in the rainbow 🌈 colours on the shelves :)
Thank you SO MUCH for your immense vulnerability and wisdom. The story you shared of that director shocked me and really inspired me to keep being a champion of good in this world. Thank you for everything that you do, it really makes a difference.
Anna's videos are always a nice pick-me-up from the woes of the current times especially *sigh*
This calmness is all I needed right now. You’re just talking to me like a friend every time.
The Genius of Anna Akana lies in her ability to make us open about our struggles.
I love the message, but the fabulous outfits always shine in these videos!
You, AA, really are a real person, a real artist and truly do exist. Artists expose themselves and always tell the truth.
Yes there's so many people that exists on screens and give you 10% off your first purchase
Self-Awareness is not easy when applied efficiently, it can be a lot of fun.

Always lighten up my day! Thank you Anna :) 😀
Discipline
1. Active
2. Reactive
3. Proactive
Thanks for this :)
Anna thank you for anecdoting your own struggles into a relevant scenario. I appreciate what it takes to be open about such topics.
I love the kind and generous heartwarming atmosphere that you create, your kind, easygoing, warm vibe. ❤I like the essence how you live on. I need to be true to myself and find a job I am passionate about. I want to find a way to live as who I really am.
Your videos are so entertaining. I watch them even when I don’t feel like working on myself.
On a shallow note - your outfit is fire today :D! Love the choker; the corcet-like top over the pirate-y shirt works great!
For someone who isn't fond of reading any kinds of books, she is a savior. Much love from Philippines, Anna!
Love seeing you step into your power and become your destined self! I have also put in the work and my life has changed so much the past 5 years. I’m in love with myself and my life!
Oh I never thought to categorize discipline this way!!! Thanks Anna 🫶🏼

Indeed. Toxic behaviors are often inherited from one's parents.
You are the most resilient person I have ever seen, crazy, honestly

Anna I love your new direction. In conjunction to your acting you would be a great therapist. Thank you for the content. 😁
Anna, you have no idea how much I needed this today
She's such a lovely and intelligent young woman.
unbelievable how the industry /people in it treated her. They missed out on a great person
They didn't treat her any way, she allowed things to happen.

Everyone makes mistakes but it doesn't mean they can never learn from them
Great that you are using Strauss as background music!
We miss you cute little teacher!!💝💝
Wow damn these videos have really been hitting at the core. Thank you Ana for helping us all along to be better people and fix our dysfunctions haha.
I just love you and your content and your comedy. Been watching your content for years and it is THHERAAPPPYYYY
Thank you for sharing your experience, Anna.

Your advice is always so well explained and helpful ❤
Yeah, backing out of that role was definitely the right move
Needed this on my journey, thank you
I love your work. You help so many people ❤
Spill the tea sis....this director does not need to work like ever again
I love your videos. They are always so inspiring.
Jesus Christ, I needed to hear this. Thank you Anna

Awesome pointers💗
Anna being honest and open about her vulnerabilities...harrowing experiences(💢)!!!!: 🌹

Great points the discipline took was probably my favorite. Also
4:55 that's just insane glad you left that
This whole thing resonated with me hard!
Thank you for the inspiration! Love your videos💜
You're the best, love you!
Thanks for your videos, Anna, you always give the best advice.
You are amazing. Thank you so much.

Love your videos Anna, you are really strong and inspiring. I know this is not a smear campaign but who is that director who screamed at you? Would hate to watch his movies.
Thank you, Anna, thank you!!!
Great, sage advice!!!
You always make me look at life differently.
Discipline and motivation are rough for neurodivergent and ADHD people. Lots of solid advice Anna but sadly it doesn't work for all people.
Good on you, Anna.
If I had Netflix, I would watch your show
Your outfit is simply ethereal ! Please tell us from where you got it 👀
Watching this daily 🥰
God's, I'm so sorry you had to deal with that. That's awful 😢. Glad you still made yourself successful!
Listen Anna, I used to write a lot, but then I graduated high school!
Proud of u guuurrrlll💅🏾
Omg that script is awful. Please never play those humiliating roles! Thank you for not doing demeaning jobs like that! Choose you! Thank you for sharing!

I'm sorry you had to go through that.
Schemer therapy is good for this and identifying unconscious family dynamics
Awesome job anna
