Sorry to hear people don’t see what we see. A loving mom, partner and kind human being. I remember the first time I stumbled onto your videos. I was hooked by all the yummy eats you ate as a family and with friends. Added bonus was your love of living so freely. Keep being you with everything you do. May God continue to bless your lovely family💞
HUH! Bringing up Banks as a vegan is NOT abuse! Banks is living the best life, he has TWO parents that are awesome surfers. I don't understand how you could hate that!
The only opposite of vegan is addicting a child to the taste of dead flesh. Most people who badmouth vegans don't know vegan food. Visit kungfufuel, watch avant garde vegan, raw vegan not gross, edgy veg, hot for food or Alana's videos. Learn.
I am not vegan, trying to move towards more plant-based foods but seeing Banks in all of your vlogs it is impossible not to see how healthy and radiant he is! The ones saying you are "abusing" him are probably the parents who drive through McDonalds everyday... your lifestyle is amazing and so close to nature and so inspiring! It is also honestly educational to see what you all eat each day and to see the yummy foods you eat to get all the nutrients. I love watching your family!
Totally. And damn man, plant baded foods are the best for you. (Don't get me wrong, i a lot of the bads...) but every time I come back to plant based I think why did I ever leave it??? Plus, Alana and Jack know their shit. They are professional and healthy and awesome surfers! There's no way that Banks is not getting all the goods he needs 💜
What's stopping you? The suffering the animals go through alone should be enough to compel you to stop paying for the violence. I've been vegan for 30 years. Please choose mercy for the voiceless.
These vlogs spread nothing but love, travel, nature and family. As a legit sane person, I have no idea why anyone would find a reason to pull these videos apart and say bad things. Keep the vlogs coming if you want to, 99.7% of viewers love them. Haters gonna hate.
You have such a positive, chill vibe, and the fact that people want to send hate to you absolutely infuriates me. I feel like the world would be a better place if more people were like you. They send hate because you are a happy person, and just want the satisfaction of putting you down. I look forward to your videos. You have given me so much advice for my health journey, and I appreciate you more than you’ll ever know. Keep being you! ❤️
we love you. those leaving hate comments obviously arent your fans. just ignore them WE LOVE YOU AND UR FAMILY!! much love Alana you are such a good mother and wife!!
Bullying sucks. They are projecting their own insecurities and unhappiness onto you. You're an amazing mother and it is obvious Banks is super happy and healthy!
I've never commented on a UA-cam video before, but I thought it was important enough to tell you that you and Jack are wonderful parents, and Banks is extremely lucky to have you both. Keep doing what you're doing, and let your love and positive attitude shine through. You will always have the support of the amazing community that you've built. And ultimately, those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind. Peace and love. - Lauren and Taryn (A California couple who are proud to be part of your community.)
As a studying Dietitian, learning the amazing benefits of being plant based is incredible. The people who say those things are super uneducated! My favorite thing to tell people are that the most important milk a child gets is their mothers. Your child doesn’t need cows milk because it’s not a baby cow! You inspire me so much to study the benefits of veganism and only hope that more people turn to that some day(:
How could someone send you hate ☹️ you and your beautiful family bring me so much joy and positive vibes. Please ignore it Alana... focus on all of us who totally love you guys and cheer you on!! Banks is a lucky boy, Jack and you are AWESOME parents!! 🥰
I could not agree more... She is so beautiful inside and out.. Definitely does not deserve to be bullied.. Noone does.. Like she said though its people that are not happy with them selves or in their own lives so they try to bring others down, which is beyond sad and pathetic.. Like keep your bad vibes to yourself.. I felt protective of her when she was talking about it.. Who the f is anyone to tell her how to parent her beautiful little guy or put her down at all f off mean people ?!! 💕We need to stop giving power to the mean angry haters.. That is what they want, so I think is best just to feel sorry for them and ignore them.. I love her vegan lifestyle and it motivates and inspires me everytime I watch her videos...love her and her family!!! 💖 Sending tonsss of love peace and good vibes out to everyone.. ✌️✨💞😘
You are literally one of the best people on UA-cam, ever! I feel like you're always keeping it so real and honest, your videos never seem staged or scripted. Sharing your feelings about these haters and how to deal with negativity personally really helped me. So thank you so much for sharing, and I hope you keep on living your life with all the love you show in your videos, don't let those haters get to you! You really are a huge inspiration to me surfing/family/fitness/health wise! ❤️
I felt emotional when she opened up about hurtful things people say online. It’s so hard to not be hard on yourself with others are so hard on you. Alana has a beautiful family and she’s doing the best she can. Sending so much love!
Ever since I discovered the WSL 8 years ago, I became a massive fan of yours! I could not have been happier when you created your UA-cam channel and started posting regularly! I love your UA-cam videos, watching your family, and getting to see Banks grow up! Please ignore those people making rude comments and keep making your awesome content that we all look forward too! Don't ever question yourself about what other people say about you and your beliefs or let others negativity affect you- just keep being you!!!
Alana, please believe when I say, I would have given anything to have been raised vegan rather than in the environment I was raised. My opinion is that Banks is super happy and super smart because he is eating healthy and getting an enormous amount of love. You and Jack are the most involved, loving, positive parents I have ever seen. Please do not let the haters affect your bright beautiful heart. You are such an awesome person! Thank you for sharing your life with us. It is really humbling to see the struggles and successes of someone who seems to have a perfect life. Please continue to shine, for those of us who are learning to glow, your example is priceless!
I absolutely love all of your videos and how real you are when you speak on topics like bullying and your career and family. I have been your fan from afar for 12+ years and feel like these videos have really shown me that I wasn’t blindly following just a “famous pretty surfer” but a really great person who is giving her family the best life possible and being an amazing mentor to her fans! Thank you for posting these videos!
I’ve enjoyed watching your videos for years because of how real and honest you are and I enjoying seeing your lifestyle so thank you for sharing. Anyone could see that Banks is super healthy and happy so you are obviously doing something right.
Hi, Alana, there will always be critics. You're an intelligent and beautiful soul for acknowledging that these critics are not happy with their own lives and for sending then positive vibes. I'm a Deputy Sheriff and times are uncertain right now, to say the least. I have a 7 month old daughter and a family member who struggles with OCD. I'm very blessed in life, but, like for all of us, times can get stressful. Surfing on my days off and your videos are a huge stress relieve! I love Kauai! My wife and I visited a few years ago. Keep doing what you're doing...unless you don't want to. Many people get a break from the craziness going on by watching your family surf vlogs.
I really appreaciate that you are so open with whats going on with you. Don't let other people get you down. Everyone can see how much you love Banks and you're doing the best you can for him. That's so easy to see in everything you do. So keep doing you (including the rambling ;) )!!!!!
You are a HUMAN BEING. You are allowed to feel upset, you are allowed to feel hurt by mean comments or posts. You have always come across as a woman who just goes with flow and is such a hard worker. We ALL NOTICED especially when you had Banks
Wow the hate makes me sad. You have a beautiful family and are a beautiful person that is full of so much love and kindness. Your response to the hate just affirms how good of a person you are at the core. You act out of love and that is apparent for the world to see. 99% of people within your social media community recognize that you are shining example of a good person and a wonderful loving mom. Much love XO
Stay strong Alana! I appreciate your jump to empathy towards those who are hurting and hating. Good job keeping your perspective and remembering you are a positive role model for others. Sending you love and peace!
You are an AMAZING mother. Please don’t believe anything otherwise or let the hate stop you from sharing your life with us! The fact that you respond to the hate with love speaks volumes of the type of person you are. Banks is so blessed to have you and Jack as his parents! I hope when I have a kid they are as happy and healthy as him! ❤️
I never really write comments, but i love your person too much to not say something. We only know a tiny part of yourself & life, but this tiny part is wonderful. You bring so much joy to my morning coffee when i watch your videos. You and Jack seem like amazing people. You both radiate so much love and great energies. Thank you for being you, the world needs more of you. Banks is lucky to have you two as parents. Sending all the love xxx
Raising Banks vegan is so incredibly and I love how you are so open about it. I actually decided to go plant-based a few months back after watching your videos and you for sure inspired me. It has changed my life for the better and I’m so grateful for you and this platform you have created. Also, I grew up loving you and Bethany and have wanted to live and surf in Hawaii since I was five and then later found you guys. I went to Kauai for my 16th birthday and it was the most incredible things. Plus I was secretly hoping I would run into you and Bethany. Anyway, keep doing what your doing!!! Love you Alana!!
You are doing perfectly fine at parenting Banks! Don’t let the haters get to you, they are jealous of your amazing lifestyle! You inspire me to do so many things! I became vegan from pescatarian because of you! You are my role model and I just want you to know that I’ll always follow you no matter what!
I think hater’s life is so boring that they see yours and get jealous, deep down they wish they were at least 1% like you because you are amazing, but they are not so they just send you hate for no reason. We love you and your family, Alana!! You guys are amazing and I can feel that in your videos, it has such good vibes and sooo much positivity. Thanks for making this content for us and for having the courage to share a part of your life. People may think that they know how is your life but the truth is that they don’t , nobody knows what you went and go trough. Keep doing what you love and if that includes making your videos that’s even better for us. Just a reminder that there are people out there who love you ❤️❤️
I love watching your videos so much, I have been following you for so long and have always been such a huge fan of your surfing. It makes me sad to think people making pointless comments have hurt you. Please don't stop your videos. You are an amazing mum, surfer and genuine person. You inspire me so much! Screw the haters ❤️
Alana you are such a loving parent to banks it breaks my heart that anyone would think otherwise. I KNOW you and Jack are both educating yourselves constantly on healthy diets and what is best for your bodies, you wouldn't feed Banks a vegan diet if it weren't healthy and good for him. Don't listen to others who have been brainwashed into believing meat or other diets are "required" or superior for that matter. You are doing your best and Banks is such a lucky child to have you and Jack as parents. Love you guys so much keep doing what you're doing!!
No matter what you do someone out there will always disagree with your beliefs. As long as you are taking care of your child and they are healthy and happy its all that matters! There is more than one right way to raise a child. I think you are a vision of health and you seem to have a kind/thoughtful spirit. Don’t let anyone tell you different! :)
don’t let the haters get to you. i look up to u and ur lifestyle so much. i love how you are vegan and show awareness about it bc not many people do like you do. and also, any mama out there is amazing so don’t let haters get to you bc banks is so lucky to have YOU and jack! 🤍
Please never stop sharing your life!! Do not let negative people get you down!! They are only unhappy with themselves. You are a wonderful mother and an amazing person! ❤️🌊
You are an awesome mom! Don’t let those people get you down. I seriously check my phone everyday waiting for you guys to post a vlog because I can’t wait to raise my family like you are one day! Love you Alana!! your real fans would never hate
You're genuinely such a rad role model; as a woman, as a mom. Even just mentioning that you're "all sunscreened up" is being a good role model which I know sounds stupid but seriously. Raising your little babe with good vibes and healthy food and an active, cultured life is the best you can do. I mean, he's probably traveled more than most people already and met more people that look different and live differently from him, and I bet that's going to be amazing for him as a citizen of the world. All the support and love to ya!
Keep being you! You are a great mamma and a strong woman. I am a mom of two boys and an endurance athlete and have faced many negative comments but you know what, no one else's opinion matter. Just found your vlog and it's GREAT!
Alana girl, you are raising your beautiful boy in the most perfect and natural way possible. Your vlogs promote nothing but love, health, fun, travel, laughter, relatable mama drama lol and my favorite RECIPES!!! The health benefits you’re passing along to Banks will last him a lifetime. Unfortunately, there are some very unhappy people out there, keep sending the haters good vibes and try not to absorb their negative energy because there’s only room for good vibes in our circle. Much love and keep living a beautiful life with your sweet little family. Thank you for sharing your life with us! xoxo ❤️ 🤙🏼
Thank you so much for your honesty on your channel! First of all you are raising your child in the best possible way, not every person will be vegan but it's amazing it works for you. Your videos are always a joyful thing for me to watch, I am currently in summer school and it's given me a good video to watch while I take a break, keep the stoke coming!
I don't normally comment on UA-cam, but I felt like I needed to here. Sending you so so so much love, I absolutely love your videos and your family, and you've been someone I've looked up to for so long. It breaks my heart that you guys get any hate at all, let alone that people would say you're abusing your child. Your videos have actually inspired me to go much more plant based this year and honestly I feel SO much better physically, mentally, emotionally, and ethically. I hope you continue making videos because there are so many of us who love to see them!! xxx
No one knows what is best for their child like their mother. And watching your videos and seeing how happy and amazing and healthy Banks is, you and Jack are doing an incredible job! Please don’t pay attention to people who think they know better and send hate. You guys spread love and good vibes, and that is 100x more powerful! I look up to you as a person.(and one day hopefully as a mom) Much love!
Please continue to make these!! It's so interesting and inspiring to see how you and Jack live and carry out your life--always being active and living such a healthy lifestyle! Not to mention, raising Banks in the most loving home possible!! People that leave negative comments don't appreciate the beauty of seeing and learning how other parts of the world live. I love your videos and I continue to learn so much by them! I love seeing your vegan recipes and how simple they can be. I hope you continue to make them, and hope understand that you have way more supporters than haters. Your platform is so important to share with people all around the world!
You're one of my biggest inspirations for how you handle criticism and for being a pro surfer while being a mother. You're killing it and anyways you don't need to prove anything to anyone. People are mean and usually just projecting. The light in others sees the light in you!
Woman, you are the loveliest! I hope the haters don't get you down, you are so bad ass and come with so much love. Anyone that's got a problem with you is dealing with their own problem. You Rock
The power of word! I think we always forget the power our words have over other people, and you said it so well, the haters are really just reflecting their own insecurities onto you. You’re such a positive light on UA-cam and you’ve inspired me a lot to become a better version of myself x 🤙🏽
You raised Banks so well and so healthy and smart, don’t let other people’s judgement tell you that your a bad mom. You know your an amazing mother and we love you xx just wanna say you guys are doing great !!
I Thinking you are an amazing mom. My daughter and I just started watching your UA-cam channel and I can see the love and care you give to Banks. Please don’t let the hurtful comments bring you down~some people have nothing better to do then to hurt others. I think it’s amazing brining Banks up as a vegan. My daughter and I are vegetarians and I’m absolutely loving your recipes on your channel. I’m excited to try your stuffed burrito... My family and I live in Vietnam and our little girl that’s five started surfing in 2019. We were searching the UA-cam and came across your channel. She loves to watch you surf... Please keep posting videos for the little girls that look up to you~you are amazing..
I know everyone is saying this but I can’t hold my tongue, you’re amazing and a beautiful human being. The love you show the world is something I look up to. Thank to you I’m more conscious of what i eat , thanks to you I’ve pushed my surfing, thanks to you I know how I want to raise my kid. Maybe not vegan but happy, free, fair, and humble. I have been a huge fan since you were in your teens and I mean you’re wonderful ! You’re a WONDERFUL mom and Jack and banks LOVE you. We all love you! God bless and hopefully i have the honor of catching a wave with ya!
i usually dont post comments on youtube but i wanted to come on here to say please dont question yourself!! you are amazing and such a great role model. im not vegan and ive never felt like you pressure any of your beliefs on to us. you are so open and open minded and i love learning from you! you’re like a big sister for all of us 🧡
Ahhh gosh I love u Alana. The more and more I learn about u the more and more respect I have for you. I started this comment after watching your vlog on your hair but never got around to finishing it till now...... You are incredible. U have allways been my hero the fact u still kept surfing after seeing what happened to your best friend arm is so heroic to me. That’s why I started following your journey so many years ago. (Because u are stunning people would automatically stereotype u and hate on u which so isn’t fair). I love the fact that u go to your mum to cut your hair you are so down to earth and grounded. Anyways I just love watching your vids I don’t have tv my little guy is the same age as Banks and I got rid of the TV when he was born as I didn’t want any negative distraction however your show is my guilty pleasure I get so excited when u release a new vid and take so much out of it. Myself and hubby are now vegans too well we try our best to be milk is a tough one. You are so incredible and so empathetic, (sending love to the haters and really meaning it just shows how compassionate u are and the type of person u are) . I think your the most incredible mummy and giving Banks the best life Eva, he his so happy and his love for number and letters is incredible too. Watching Banks surfing on that wave was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. Big love from Australia. Xxx
I love your vlogs!.. I'm sorry about the haters.. They're just envious of you, and the life you live and share with people.. You stay true to yourself, Alana.. Love Jack, baby Banks, and the home and life you've created for yourself.. At the end of the day you have what matters.. You are so unassuming, sweet, and genuine and that's what I love about you!.. Thanks so much for creating these vlogs and sharing them with us.. I love them, and so many others do too!.. God bless you guys!❤
Don't stop with this just because there are some people who obviously have issues in their lives. I love your videos and I am watching them since you started here - always a highlight when a new video comes. I love your food and your life in Hawaii and the surfing and the workouts, so please don't stop :) sending love from Germany
It takes a lot of courage to share what you did! Do what you feel is best for your son! He is a healthy boy and learning healthy habits early in life. You should be proud of yourself!
I'm so sorry you have to deal with all the hate comments. But know there are so many more of us who love your videos and love seeing little glimpses into your life. Watching your videos has inspired me to live a healthier lifestyle and I've made several of your recipes. Please keep doing what you're doing! Keep shining your light.
Banks looks super healthy and happy! Some people have nothing better to do than try to interfere with happy people living their best life! Pay no mind to them! We enjoy your content and hope you know you have more supporters than you know! ❤️🙏🏻😊
What you are doing for Banks with diet and everything you do, is teaching him nonviolence and respect for all living creatures. We take the least amount of life to sustain our life. Keep gong Alana. You are doing the right thing. Mahalo.
my parents live on kaua'i and your videos make me so happy and remind me of the island. you and jack are clearly great parents raising a beautiful, kind little man. thank you for your videos! much love
My family is vegan, 2.5yr old included, and we LOVE you and your family!! You spread so much love and positivity and knowledge - we are so lucky that you share parts of your life. Keep being a bright light in your family’s life and know that you bring a lot of joy to the world! You’re an inspiration
Okay first thing, the people that judge your parenting are the same people that would take their kids to McDonalds. You are such a light in my little world, thank you for coming back and telling us this. And thank you for the beautiful views 💙
Alana, please never stop! I heart you so much and you inspire me! I too am vegan and plant based and I LOVE your recipe creations. I literally can't wait for your next video to come out so I can tune into the high vibes, see the waves, learn some new recipes, be reminded there is good and beauty in this world and watch your amaze family unit! You are so strong and beautiful and amazing. Know that you inspire so many! Also, random but I learned about the Laird Superfoods from one of your videos and have been using them and obsessed! Also doing the fat burning workout you uploaded with Waves Yoga too! I actually just did it today. It kicks my a$$ but makes me feel so strong
The reason I felt confident as a young girl grom was because of you, Alana. The reason I became vegan a few years ago was because of you, Alana. You’re a role model and the same goes for Jack and they way that you both show immense compassion all the time. Keep doing you!
Your lifestyle is inspiring way more people than it does raise hate. Even out of the US. Keep on vlogging and sharing your vegan recipes ! We love it !
Aww 🥰 you are such a sweetie. I absolutely love your content. I don’t live where people are the healthiest, and your content is always inspiring to live a healthy active lifestyle with a family and kids. You’re doing a good thing. Keep shining 🌞🌻🌺
Please don't let haters get you down. You're an amazing inspiration to women and future mamas all over the world!!! The video of all the three of you surfing together is absolutely amazing 😍😍 Xoxo from Israel ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You have a lovely family, and you are a great role model for women in sports and young parents. So don't let anyone make you question yourself. please keep posting i really enjoy your content. Stay real and authentic.
BOOM! Alana, you are such an amazing example of authenticity. The look you gave the camera when you said "i'm sending you guys love" so powerful. Seriously, it's no easy feat to navigate all the impressions, comparisons, and yes exactly, "projections." unfortunately eating super clean and training your body to be strong has kinda become a sort of rebellion. It's just opposite to the lifestyle of many many people. Misery always wants company. You and Jack are highly intelligent, and highly connected to the well being of yourselves, nature, and the opportunities to help others. Keep ripping ! Your a Badass ! super gorgeous, talented, and kind. Thanks for all you share!
I love the way you are raising Banks, I really look up to you as a mom, and I'm a mom of a 4 year old and I'm older than you. Believe me, you are truly an inspiration! Please keep sharing your videos ❤️ lot's of love from Portugal.
You all are so genuine and loving humans! There will always be someone taking you down. People "never" learn... LOVE is the way and u do deserve it for sure. Keep living your beautiful life. You are my inspiration when it comes to raising a kid! Much love from the Czech Republic. x
Alana so sorry to hear that people would be so unkind. Keep raising your child the way you choose, it's a blessing he has you for a mom! I love watching your videos! God bless you! 💕
I have never commented on UA-cam but I just wanted to say you're such an inspiration to me and I want to thank you for all the videos you make even if they are hard to put out to the public. xoxo sending positive vibes your way!
You are such a beautiful soul, dont let the negativity eat at you its toxic. You are such a good mother and banks is happy and healthy!!! Thats all that matters!
Keep doing your thing gurl! Let the haters hate and keep being the rockin momma you are! Sending you and your family lots of love...ps. I love your weekly vlogs they really brighten my day and are what I look forward to! Family, surfing, cooking, workouts, and so much more... love it!
Love you and all your content! Your authenticity, positivity and good vibes shine through every video! You are the BEST mom and dont let anyone tell you any different!!!
You are amazing the way you are, Alana! Your videos inspire me so much and you are one of the reasons why I fell in love with surfing even more. Banks has a wonderful childhood, growing up in nature, eating the healthiest and freshest food. Please don't listen to people who are trying to convince you of something different.
Please keep sharing your life. Yuor channel is so refreshing and amazing. Most people don;t surf or travel or live in a beautiful place like you do. It is so fun to watch. I am not vegan, however, I love your creativity and get ideas for meals from you. Love you!!
You have literally inspired me so much to stay healthy and stay positive with my life and my choices. These videos literally help me through so much, it’s so refreshing having someone so positive to watch. Thank you Alana! :)
i love how you handled the negatove comments Alana - sending out love to these particular people (although im sure hard to do initially) IS the best way to handle it. Your a great role model! Well done!
I'm really sorry to hear that :( I really like watching your videos. Banks looks so healthy and happy. There can't be anything wrong with that, especially with you guys as parents. You are doing great. Much love back!
Love your wonderful lovely warm-hearted beautiful peaceful and inspiring family! You just make my day always better! Lots of love sending to you Banks and Jack
Heck girl, you guys have the best life. Banks is thriving and as parents we can only hope to raise kind, happy and healthy children. Thank you for sharing. You share nothing but good vibes. I love watching your videos, don’t let the haters get you down. I for one would love the life you’re able to give banks 💗
Hey Alana, I have been watching your blogs only just recently because of finding Bethany, but Injust think you’re amazing! I really love seeing into a world I have not explored yet and you and Bethany help me to dream that maybe I will one day. You’re a young, first time Mum under scrutiny in the public eye. That’s not an easy thing to deal with yet you do it with such mercy and grace. When you were getting tears that shows your you on the inside and I thought you had such a merciful heart to those that have hurt you. I think there’s a vulnerability about you and the world sees it as weak (I have the same vulnerability too and am treated very often like you...which has resulted in anger in recent years which is very unlike me, so your perspective on the hate situation I would say, is true). I think you’re an amazing Mum. Life is so friggin hard! We all don’t really know what we’re doing! We’re all afraid! I’m afraid and feel I’m failing all the time! The only love I can cling to is Jesus. He’s the only person that doesn’t hurt me and tells me to keep going when I want to quit. You are beautiful inside and out and I will be lifting you up in my prayers today from Ireland xxxxxxx Much love to you all 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
that was such a kind way to deal with the hate! i really look up to you and admire you and your life accomplishments! don’t let the haters bring ya down. your beautiful!!
I have been watching your surfing videos, UA-cam videos, and your instagram posts for years and I have to say I look up to you so much. I love your content and your sweet family and I can only hope I’m like you as a mother someday! You and Jack are the best parents and I hope that you see this and know that you are a role model to me!
Sorry to hear people don’t see what we see. A loving mom, partner and kind human being. I remember the first time I stumbled onto your videos. I was hooked by all the yummy eats you ate as a family and with friends. Added bonus was your love of living so freely. Keep being you with everything you do. May God continue to bless your lovely family💞
Thank you❤️❤️
Alana Blanchard and Jack Freestone Alana I love you necklace!! Where’s it from?!💗btw I love your channel
HUH! Bringing up Banks as a vegan is NOT abuse! Banks is living the best life, he has TWO parents that are awesome surfers. I don't understand how you could hate that!
Word
💯
Honestly, I bet growing up vegan has helped him so much. I love being vegan. His parents know what they’re doing!
The only opposite of vegan is addicting a child to the taste of dead flesh. Most people who badmouth vegans don't know vegan food. Visit kungfufuel, watch avant garde vegan, raw vegan not gross, edgy veg, hot for food or Alana's videos. Learn.
Ikr its just the lifestyle they have
I am not vegan, trying to move towards more plant-based foods but seeing Banks in all of your vlogs it is impossible not to see how healthy and radiant he is! The ones saying you are "abusing" him are probably the parents who drive through McDonalds everyday... your lifestyle is amazing and so close to nature and so inspiring! It is also honestly educational to see what you all eat each day and to see the yummy foods you eat to get all the nutrients. I love watching your family!
There just isn’t enough studies to back up a vegan diet for children. Although I don’t think it’s child abuse
@@flowerfields4345 The world's largest organization of nutritional professionals, the American Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, disagrees with you.
Totally. And damn man, plant baded foods are the best for you. (Don't get me wrong, i a lot of the bads...) but every time I come back to plant based I think why did I ever leave it???
Plus, Alana and Jack know their shit. They are professional and healthy and awesome surfers! There's no way that Banks is not getting all the goods he needs 💜
@@flowerfields4345 please do some research before spouting anecdotal nonsense. Vegan for 30 years backed by science.
What's stopping you? The suffering the animals go through alone should be enough to compel you to stop paying for the violence. I've been vegan for 30 years. Please choose mercy for the voiceless.
These vlogs spread nothing but love, travel, nature and family. As a legit sane person, I have no idea why anyone would find a reason to pull these videos apart and say bad things. Keep the vlogs coming if you want to, 99.7% of viewers love them. Haters gonna hate.
❤️
Exactly!!! Hugs Alana!!
Ignore the haters, Alana. Don't let them bring you down.
You have such a positive, chill vibe, and the fact that people want to send hate to you absolutely infuriates me. I feel like the world would be a better place if more people were like you. They send hate because you are a happy person, and just want the satisfaction of putting you down. I look forward to your videos. You have given me so much advice for my health journey, and I appreciate you more than you’ll ever know. Keep being you! ❤️
we love you. those leaving hate comments obviously arent your fans. just ignore them WE LOVE YOU AND UR FAMILY!! much love Alana you are such a good mother and wife!!
Bullying sucks. They are projecting their own insecurities and unhappiness onto you. You're an amazing mother and it is obvious Banks is super happy and healthy!
Banks is gonna be a surfer when he grows up for sure!
.....and a super happy, super healthy, super loved lil dude 🌈🤙
He already is its in his blood ... The air and the sea...
watch him play golf and hate the ocean lol
I've never commented on a UA-cam video before, but I thought it was important enough to tell you that you and Jack are wonderful parents, and Banks is extremely lucky to have you both. Keep doing what you're doing, and let your love and positive attitude shine through. You will always have the support of the amazing community that you've built. And ultimately, those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind. Peace and love. - Lauren and Taryn (A California couple who are proud to be part of your community.)
As a studying Dietitian, learning the amazing benefits of being plant based is incredible. The people who say those things are super uneducated! My favorite thing to tell people are that the most important milk a child gets is their mothers. Your child doesn’t need cows milk because it’s not a baby cow! You inspire me so much to study the benefits of veganism and only hope that more people turn to that some day(:
How could someone send you hate ☹️ you and your beautiful family bring me so much joy and positive vibes. Please ignore it Alana... focus on all of us who totally love you guys and cheer you on!! Banks is a lucky boy, Jack and you are AWESOME parents!! 🥰
I could not agree more... She is so beautiful inside and out.. Definitely does not deserve to be bullied.. Noone does.. Like she said though its people that are not happy with them selves or in their own lives so they try to bring others down, which is beyond sad and pathetic.. Like keep your bad vibes to yourself.. I felt protective of her when she was talking about it.. Who the f is anyone to tell her how to parent her beautiful little guy or put her down at all f off mean people ?!! 💕We need to stop giving power to the mean angry haters.. That is what they want, so I think is best just to feel sorry for them and ignore them.. I love her vegan lifestyle and it motivates and inspires me everytime I watch her videos...love her and her family!!! 💖
Sending tonsss of love peace and good vibes out to everyone.. ✌️✨💞😘
F! Yea!
You are literally one of the best people on UA-cam, ever! I feel like you're always keeping it so real and honest, your videos never seem staged or scripted. Sharing your feelings about these haters and how to deal with negativity personally really helped me. So thank you so much for sharing, and I hope you keep on living your life with all the love you show in your videos, don't let those haters get to you! You really are a huge inspiration to me surfing/family/fitness/health wise! ❤️
Your vulnerability and honesty is so powerful. You are light, thank you.
You really don't deserve the hate you get. You are an amazing mother, and we all see that :) We all love you Alana!
I felt emotional when she opened up about hurtful things people say online. It’s so hard to not be hard on yourself with others are so hard on you. Alana has a beautiful family and she’s doing the best she can. Sending so much love!
Ever since I discovered the WSL 8 years ago, I became a massive fan of yours! I could not have been happier when you created your UA-cam channel and started posting regularly! I love your UA-cam videos, watching your family, and getting to see Banks grow up! Please ignore those people making rude comments and keep making your awesome content that we all look forward too! Don't ever question yourself about what other people say about you and your beliefs or let others negativity affect you- just keep being you!!!
Your the highlight of my day. Thank you for letting us into your life. The love will always outweigh the hate :)
this needs a double like
Thank you!!
Aww Alana you are so sweet and don’t let anyone bring you down. Thanks so much for making positive videos :)
Alana, please believe when I say, I would have given anything to have been raised vegan rather than in the environment I was raised. My opinion is that Banks is super happy and super smart because he is eating healthy and getting an enormous amount of love. You and Jack are the most involved, loving, positive parents I have ever seen. Please do not let the haters affect your bright beautiful heart. You are such an awesome person! Thank you for sharing your life with us. It is really humbling to see the struggles and successes of someone who seems to have a perfect life. Please continue to shine, for those of us who are learning to glow, your example is priceless!
I absolutely love all of your videos and how real you are when you speak on topics like bullying and your career and family. I have been your fan from afar for 12+ years and feel like these videos have really shown me that I wasn’t blindly following just a “famous pretty surfer” but a really great person who is giving her family the best life possible and being an amazing mentor to her fans! Thank you for posting these videos!
i love your videos so much. don’t let the negativity get to you because you have so many followers supporting you! you’re a legend and that’s that
I’ve enjoyed watching your videos for years because of how real and honest you are and I enjoying seeing your lifestyle so thank you for sharing. Anyone could see that Banks is super healthy and happy so you are obviously doing something right.
Hi, Alana, there will always be critics. You're an intelligent and beautiful soul for acknowledging that these critics are not happy with their own lives and for sending then positive vibes.
I'm a Deputy Sheriff and times are uncertain right now, to say the least. I have a 7 month old daughter and a family member who struggles with OCD. I'm very blessed in life, but, like for all of us, times can get stressful. Surfing on my days off and your videos are a huge stress relieve! I love Kauai! My wife and I visited a few years ago. Keep doing what you're doing...unless you don't want to. Many people get a break from the craziness going on by watching your family surf vlogs.
I really appreaciate that you are so open with whats going on with you. Don't let other people get you down. Everyone can see how much you love Banks and you're doing the best you can for him. That's so easy to see in everything you do. So keep doing you (including the rambling ;) )!!!!!
You are a HUMAN BEING. You are allowed to feel upset, you are allowed to feel hurt by mean comments or posts. You have always come across as a woman who just goes with flow and is such a hard worker. We ALL NOTICED especially when you had Banks
Wow the hate makes me sad. You have a beautiful family and are a beautiful person that is full of so much love and kindness. Your response to the hate just affirms how good of a person you are at the core. You act out of love and that is apparent for the world to see. 99% of people within your social media community recognize that you are shining example of a good person and a wonderful loving mom. Much love XO
Love your little Family and your Videos. They are amazing!!
Stay strong Alana! I appreciate your jump to empathy towards those who are hurting and hating. Good job keeping your perspective and remembering you are a positive role model for others. Sending you love and peace!
You are an AMAZING mother. Please don’t believe anything otherwise or let the hate stop you from sharing your life with us! The fact that you respond to the hate with love speaks volumes of the type of person you are. Banks is so blessed to have you and Jack as his parents! I hope when I have a kid they are as happy and healthy as him! ❤️
I never really write comments, but i love your person too much to not say something. We only know a tiny part of yourself & life, but this tiny part is wonderful. You bring so much joy to my morning coffee when i watch your videos. You and Jack seem like amazing people. You both radiate so much love and great energies. Thank you for being you, the world needs more of you. Banks is lucky to have you two as parents. Sending all the love xxx
Raising Banks vegan is so incredibly and I love how you are so open about it. I actually decided to go plant-based a few months back after watching your videos and you for sure inspired me. It has changed my life for the better and I’m so grateful for you and this platform you have created.
Also, I grew up loving you and Bethany and have wanted to live and surf in Hawaii since I was five and then later found you guys. I went to Kauai for my 16th birthday and it was the most incredible things. Plus I was secretly hoping I would run into you and Bethany.
Anyway, keep doing what your doing!!! Love you Alana!!
You are doing perfectly fine at parenting Banks! Don’t let the haters get to you, they are jealous of your amazing lifestyle! You inspire me to do so many things! I became vegan from pescatarian because of you! You are my role model and I just want you to know that I’ll always follow you no matter what!
I think hater’s life is so boring that they see yours and get jealous, deep down they wish they were at least 1% like you because you are amazing, but they are not so they just send you hate for no reason. We love you and your family, Alana!! You guys are amazing and I can feel that in your videos, it has such good vibes and sooo much positivity. Thanks for making this content for us and for having the courage to share a part of your life. People may think that they know how is your life but the truth is that they don’t , nobody knows what you went and go trough. Keep doing what you love and if that includes making your videos that’s even better for us. Just a reminder that there are people out there who love you ❤️❤️
I love watching your videos so much, I have been following you for so long and have always been such a huge fan of your surfing. It makes me sad to think people making pointless comments have hurt you. Please don't stop your videos. You are an amazing mum, surfer and genuine person. You inspire me so much! Screw the haters ❤️
Alana you are such a loving parent to banks it breaks my heart that anyone would think otherwise. I KNOW you and Jack are both educating yourselves constantly on healthy diets and what is best for your bodies, you wouldn't feed Banks a vegan diet if it weren't healthy and good for him. Don't listen to others who have been brainwashed into believing meat or other diets are "required" or superior for that matter. You are doing your best and Banks is such a lucky child to have you and Jack as parents. Love you guys so much keep doing what you're doing!!
Thank you so much for not letting the haters ruin it for the rest of us that love to see the light and love that you put out in your videos.
No matter what you do someone out there will always disagree with your beliefs. As long as you are taking care of your child and they are healthy and happy its all that matters! There is more than one right way to raise a child. I think you are a vision of health and you seem to have a kind/thoughtful spirit. Don’t let anyone tell you different! :)
don’t let the haters get to you. i look up to u and ur lifestyle so much. i love how you are vegan and show awareness about it bc not many people do like you do. and also, any mama out there is amazing so don’t let haters get to you bc banks is so lucky to have YOU and jack! 🤍
Please never stop sharing your life!! Do not let negative people get you down!! They are only unhappy with themselves. You are a wonderful mother and an amazing person! ❤️🌊
You are an awesome mom! Don’t let those people get you down. I seriously check my phone everyday waiting for you guys to post a vlog because I can’t wait to raise my family like you are one day! Love you Alana!! your real fans would never hate
You're genuinely such a rad role model; as a woman, as a mom. Even just mentioning that you're "all sunscreened up" is being a good role model which I know sounds stupid but seriously. Raising your little babe with good vibes and healthy food and an active, cultured life is the best you can do. I mean, he's probably traveled more than most people already and met more people that look different and live differently from him, and I bet that's going to be amazing for him as a citizen of the world. All the support and love to ya!
Keep up the great work. Enjoy life and be happy.
Keep being you! You are a great mamma and a strong woman. I am a mom of two boys and an endurance athlete and have faced many negative comments but you know what, no one else's opinion matter.
Just found your vlog and it's GREAT!
Alana girl, you are raising your beautiful boy in the most perfect and natural way possible. Your vlogs promote nothing but love, health, fun, travel, laughter, relatable mama drama lol and my favorite RECIPES!!! The health benefits you’re passing along to Banks will last him a lifetime. Unfortunately, there are some very unhappy people out there, keep sending the haters good vibes and try not to absorb their negative energy because there’s only room for good vibes in our circle. Much love and keep living a beautiful life with your sweet little family. Thank you for sharing your life with us! xoxo ❤️ 🤙🏼
Thank you so much for your honesty on your channel! First of all you are raising your child in the best possible way, not every person will be vegan but it's amazing it works for you. Your videos are always a joyful thing for me to watch, I am currently in summer school and it's given me a good video to watch while I take a break, keep the stoke coming!
I don't normally comment on UA-cam, but I felt like I needed to here. Sending you so so so much love, I absolutely love your videos and your family, and you've been someone I've looked up to for so long. It breaks my heart that you guys get any hate at all, let alone that people would say you're abusing your child. Your videos have actually inspired me to go much more plant based this year and honestly I feel SO much better physically, mentally, emotionally, and ethically. I hope you continue making videos because there are so many of us who love to see them!! xxx
No one knows what is best for their child like their mother. And watching your videos and seeing how happy and amazing and healthy Banks is, you and Jack are doing an incredible job! Please don’t pay attention to people who think they know better and send hate. You guys spread love and good vibes, and that is 100x more powerful! I look up to you as a person.(and one day hopefully as a mom) Much love!
We definitely need more people like you on the planet
Please continue to make these!! It's so interesting and inspiring to see how you and Jack live and carry out your life--always being active and living such a healthy lifestyle! Not to mention, raising Banks in the most loving home possible!! People that leave negative comments don't appreciate the beauty of seeing and learning how other parts of the world live. I love your videos and I continue to learn so much by them! I love seeing your vegan recipes and how simple they can be. I hope you continue to make them, and hope understand that you have way more supporters than haters. Your platform is so important to share with people all around the world!
You're one of my biggest inspirations for how you handle criticism and for being a pro surfer while being a mother. You're killing it and anyways you don't need to prove anything to anyone. People are mean and usually just projecting. The light in others sees the light in you!
Woman, you are the loveliest! I hope the haters don't get you down, you are so bad ass and come with so much love. Anyone that's got a problem with you is dealing with their own problem. You Rock
The power of word! I think we always forget the power our words have over other people, and you said it so well, the haters are really just reflecting their own insecurities onto you. You’re such a positive light on UA-cam and you’ve inspired me a lot to become a better version of myself x 🤙🏽
Omg the three of you riding the wave together at the end made my heart absolutely melt
You raised Banks so well and so healthy and smart, don’t let other people’s judgement tell you that your a bad mom. You know your an amazing mother and we love you xx just wanna say you guys are doing great !!
I Thinking you are an amazing mom. My daughter and I just started watching your UA-cam channel and I can see the love and care you give to Banks. Please don’t let the hurtful comments bring you down~some people have nothing better to do then to hurt others. I think it’s amazing brining Banks up as a vegan. My daughter and I are vegetarians and I’m absolutely loving your recipes on your channel. I’m excited to try your stuffed burrito... My family and I live in Vietnam and our little girl that’s five started surfing in 2019. We were searching the UA-cam and came across your channel. She loves to watch you surf... Please keep posting videos for the little girls that look up to you~you are amazing..
I know everyone is saying this but I can’t hold my tongue, you’re amazing and a beautiful human being. The love you show the world is something I look up to. Thank to you I’m more conscious of what i eat , thanks to you I’ve pushed my surfing, thanks to you I know how I want to raise my kid. Maybe not vegan but happy, free, fair, and humble. I have been a huge fan since you were in your teens and I mean you’re wonderful ! You’re a WONDERFUL mom and Jack and banks LOVE you. We all love you! God bless and hopefully i have the honor of catching a wave with ya!
i usually dont post comments on youtube but i wanted to come on here to say please dont question yourself!! you are amazing and such a great role model. im not vegan and ive never felt like you pressure any of your beliefs on to us. you are so open and open minded and i love learning from you! you’re like a big sister for all of us 🧡
Ahhh gosh I love u Alana. The more and more I learn about u the more and more respect I have for you. I started this comment after watching your vlog on your hair but never got around to finishing it till now...... You are incredible. U have allways been my hero the fact u still kept surfing after seeing what happened to your best friend arm is so heroic to me. That’s why I started following your journey so many years ago. (Because u are stunning people would automatically stereotype u and hate on u which so isn’t fair). I love the fact that u go to your mum to cut your hair you are so down to earth and grounded. Anyways I just love watching your vids I don’t have tv my little guy is the same age as Banks and I got rid of the TV when he was born as I didn’t want any negative distraction however your show is my guilty pleasure I get so excited when u release a new vid and take so much out of it. Myself and hubby are now vegans too well we try our best to be milk is a tough one. You are so incredible and so empathetic, (sending love to the haters and really meaning it just shows how compassionate u are and the type of person u are) . I think your the most incredible mummy and giving Banks the best life Eva, he his so happy and his love for number and letters is incredible too. Watching Banks surfing on that wave was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. Big love from Australia. Xxx
Sending so much love!! Keep doing you chica
I love your vlogs!.. I'm sorry about the haters.. They're just envious of you, and the life you live and share with people.. You stay true to yourself, Alana.. Love Jack, baby Banks, and the home and life you've created for yourself.. At the end of the day you have what matters.. You are so unassuming, sweet, and genuine and that's what I love about you!.. Thanks so much for creating these vlogs and sharing them with us.. I love them, and so many others do too!.. God bless you guys!❤
Don't stop with this just because there are some people who obviously have issues in their lives. I love your videos and I am watching them since you started here - always a highlight when a new video comes. I love your food and your life in Hawaii and the surfing and the workouts, so please don't stop :) sending love from Germany
It takes a lot of courage to share what you did! Do what you feel is best for your son! He is a healthy boy and learning healthy habits early in life. You should be proud of yourself!
I'm so sorry you have to deal with all the hate comments. But know there are so many more of us who love your videos and love seeing little glimpses into your life. Watching your videos has inspired me to live a healthier lifestyle and I've made several of your recipes. Please keep doing what you're doing! Keep shining your light.
Banks looks super healthy and happy! Some people have nothing better to do than try to interfere with happy people living their best life! Pay no mind to them! We enjoy your content and hope you know you have more supporters than you know! ❤️🙏🏻😊
What you are doing for Banks with diet and everything you do, is teaching him nonviolence and respect for all living creatures. We take the least amount of life to sustain our life. Keep gong Alana. You are doing the right thing. Mahalo.
my parents live on kaua'i and your videos make me so happy and remind me of the island. you and jack are clearly great parents raising a beautiful, kind little man. thank you for your videos! much love
My family is vegan, 2.5yr old included, and we LOVE you and your family!! You spread so much love and positivity and knowledge - we are so lucky that you share parts of your life. Keep being a bright light in your family’s life and know that you bring a lot of joy to the world! You’re an inspiration
Okay first thing, the people that judge your parenting are the same people that would take their kids to McDonalds. You are such a light in my little world, thank you for coming back and telling us this. And thank you for the beautiful views 💙
Alana, please never stop! I heart you so much and you inspire me! I too am vegan and plant based and I LOVE your recipe creations. I literally can't wait for your next video to come out so I can tune into the high vibes, see the waves, learn some new recipes, be reminded there is good and beauty in this world and watch your amaze family unit! You are so strong and beautiful and amazing. Know that you inspire so many! Also, random but I learned about the Laird Superfoods from one of your videos and have been using them and obsessed! Also doing the fat burning workout you uploaded with Waves Yoga too! I actually just did it today. It kicks my a$$ but makes me feel so strong
Best wishes to you and your family Alana! Keep doing what you are doing.
Thank you for including us in your life. Please don't let peoples hate effect you,your channel is awesome.
The reason I felt confident as a young girl grom was because of you, Alana. The reason I became vegan a few years ago was because of you, Alana. You’re a role model and the same goes for Jack and they way that you both show immense compassion all the time. Keep doing you!
Your lifestyle is inspiring way more people than it does raise hate. Even out of the US. Keep on vlogging and sharing your vegan recipes ! We love it !
Aww 🥰 you are such a sweetie. I absolutely love your content. I don’t live where people are the healthiest, and your content is always inspiring to live a healthy active lifestyle with a family and kids. You’re doing a good thing. Keep shining 🌞🌻🌺
Please don't let haters get you down. You're an amazing inspiration to women and future mamas all over the world!!! The video of all the three of you surfing together is absolutely amazing 😍😍 Xoxo from Israel ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You have a lovely family, and you are a great role model for women in sports and young parents. So don't let anyone make you question yourself. please keep posting i really enjoy your content. Stay real and authentic.
You’re my vegan inspo for sure!! Huge respect for being able to take your whole family with you! Sending love❤️
BOOM! Alana, you are such an amazing example of authenticity. The look you gave the camera when you said "i'm sending you guys love" so powerful. Seriously, it's no easy feat to navigate all the impressions, comparisons, and yes exactly, "projections."
unfortunately eating super clean and training your body to be strong has kinda become a sort of rebellion. It's just opposite to the lifestyle of many many people. Misery always wants company. You and Jack are highly intelligent, and highly connected to the well being of yourselves, nature, and the opportunities to help others. Keep ripping ! Your a Badass ! super gorgeous, talented, and kind. Thanks for all you share!
I love the way you are raising Banks, I really look up to you as a mom, and I'm a mom of a 4 year old and I'm older than you. Believe me, you are truly an inspiration! Please keep sharing your videos ❤️ lot's of love from Portugal.
I admire how strong you are Alana, and the way you live your life. Please keep your head up and do what you love and think is right. Lots of love!
You all are so genuine and loving humans! There will always be someone taking you down. People "never" learn... LOVE is the way and u do deserve it for sure. Keep living your beautiful life. You are my inspiration when it comes to raising a kid! Much love from the Czech Republic. x
Alana so sorry to hear that people would be so unkind. Keep raising your child the way you choose, it's a blessing he has you for a mom! I love watching your videos! God bless you! 💕
I have never commented on UA-cam but I just wanted to say you're such an inspiration to me and I want to thank you for all the videos you make even if they are hard to put out to the public. xoxo sending positive vibes your way!
You are such a beautiful soul, dont let the negativity eat at you its toxic. You are such a good mother and banks is happy and healthy!!! Thats all that matters!
Keep doing your thing gurl! Let the haters hate and keep being the rockin momma you are! Sending you and your family lots of love...ps. I love your weekly vlogs they really brighten my day and are what I look forward to! Family, surfing, cooking, workouts, and so much more... love it!
Love you and all your content! Your authenticity, positivity and good vibes shine through every video! You are the BEST mom and dont let anyone tell you any different!!!
You are amazing the way you are, Alana! Your videos inspire me so much and you are one of the reasons why I fell in love with surfing even more. Banks has a wonderful childhood, growing up in nature, eating the healthiest and freshest food. Please don't listen to people who are trying to convince you of something different.
Please keep sharing your life. Yuor channel is so refreshing and amazing. Most people don;t surf or travel or live in a beautiful place like you do. It is so fun to watch. I am not vegan, however, I love your creativity and get ideas for meals from you. Love you!!
You have literally inspired me so much to stay healthy and stay positive with my life and my choices. These videos literally help me through so much, it’s so refreshing having someone so positive to watch. Thank you Alana! :)
i love how you handled the negatove comments Alana - sending out love to these particular people (although im sure hard to do initially) IS the best way to handle it. Your a great role model! Well done!
u are amazing and very strong!!! the way you and jack raise banks its just so beatiful and we can feel the love. dont let the haters get to you
I'm really sorry to hear that :(
I really like watching your videos.
Banks looks so healthy and happy. There can't be anything wrong with that, especially with you guys as parents. You are doing great.
Much love back!
Love your wonderful lovely warm-hearted beautiful peaceful and inspiring family! You just make my day always better! Lots of love sending to you Banks and Jack
Heck girl, you guys have the best life. Banks is thriving and as parents we can only hope to raise kind, happy and healthy children. Thank you for sharing. You share nothing but good vibes. I love watching your videos, don’t let the haters get you down. I for one would love the life you’re able to give banks 💗
Hey Alana,
I have been watching your blogs only just recently because of finding Bethany, but Injust think you’re amazing! I really love seeing into a world I have not explored yet and you and Bethany help me to dream that maybe I will one day.
You’re a young, first time Mum under scrutiny in the public eye. That’s not an easy thing to deal with yet you do it with such mercy and grace. When you were getting tears that shows your you on the inside and I thought you had such a merciful heart to those that have hurt you. I think there’s a vulnerability about you and the world sees it as weak (I have the same vulnerability too and am treated very often like you...which has resulted in anger in recent years which is very unlike me, so your perspective on the hate situation I would say, is true).
I think you’re an amazing Mum. Life is so friggin hard! We all don’t really know what we’re doing! We’re all afraid! I’m afraid and feel I’m failing all the time! The only love I can cling to is Jesus. He’s the only person that doesn’t hurt me and tells me to keep going when I want to quit.
You are beautiful inside and out and I will be lifting you up in my prayers today from Ireland xxxxxxx
Much love to you all 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Love you Alana!! Thanks for sharing ❤️❤️❤️
that was such a kind way to deal with the hate! i really look up to you and admire you and your life accomplishments! don’t let the haters bring ya down. your beautiful!!
I have been watching your surfing videos, UA-cam videos, and your instagram posts for years and I have to say I look up to you so much. I love your content and your sweet family and I can only hope I’m like you as a mother someday! You and Jack are the best parents and I hope that you see this and know that you are a role model to me!
Thank you for sharing and being so open.. you are an amazing mom and an inspiration to women of all ages!
