life fluctuates. that's normal.
welcome to a scattered, overthinking week in my life where I had both incredible self-love dates with myself, and days where I literally could not switch off my brain from its to-do list reels and the many issues of the world. these clips are very all over the place, which i think captures the week well. very intrigued to hear from people who are similarly sensitive how you keep yourself informed on the happenings of the world! sometimes I wish I was more rational than emotional, as I think it'd spur me to more useful action.

Casual Magic of the Day: Me and my roommates had a lazy long chat this morning, balanced on top of each other in one tiny single bed. We talked about love and how hard it is to have it during Minerva haha. No comment.

I just want to say that you have encouraged me so much, seeing how much your hardwork gave u positive and amazing results, encouraged me to be serious with my life and school work, i started studying more, quit social media(i just call to communicate with fam) , i have 0 friends, i meditate , i finally got to my ideal healthy weight, my final year of highschool is approaching and i have been preparing myself for this weeks coming exams. I was so depressed stressed, angry, procrastinating 24/7, and now thanks to your advice , i am Head girl, maths is now easy for me,my grades went from getting D's to B's and A's and my mental health😙😙😙 and physical health( i had an eating disorder) is just ugh amazing. THANK U, PLIZ, THANK U JADE😢👍❤👍❤
My father is retiring from work this year, so i need to ace my exams.
Update: I have toxic parents that constantly bring me down whenever I face challenges of my own. It's hard , we faught this morning and I couldn't see in class today ,my eyes were swollen from crying. I can't wait to finish my last year an leave

THE COLOR SCHEME OF THE VIDEO, I... **chefs kiss**
SHE *chefs kiss* lol
Me: *reads the word overthinking* yes, I feel seen
Hey! If possible, could you make a video telling us about the financial aspect of attending Minerva? Like using different currencies, being able to afford living in these cities, day to day expenses etc.
Love from India 💖
This is very interesting! I'm very intrigued to know
I could never go to Minerva 😂. The idea of travelling to different countries each semester sounds so stressful. Constantly having to adapt to another country, researching its currency and locations etc sounds agitating. Must be good for teaching you to adapt to an environment quickly, but man, something I could never do
i LOVE that clip of you three sitting in front of the projection of waves
We live for a consistent Queen 👑 🙌🙌
10:15 I can relate to this sooo much. I think what helps me is to change my perspective. Helping with social issues because helping is just the most amazing feeling. Being grateful for what you CAN do and learning to accept that somethings are out of your control. (Easier to say then to do)
I'm IN LOVE. So excited you're thriving and growing and educating yourself and others. Growth is beautiful and your ability to take time and contemplate difficult and complex issues is so important in finding different ways to navigate and shape the world to include those who feel as if they have no voice at all. Once again, very proud of the person you're growing into :)
also as a fellow sensitive overthinker, what has helped me regain positive thoughts about the world in the midst of all this negativity is through nature ! i know it might sound too simple as it is, but it really just recharges me with fresh thoughts. i also love how you pointed out awareness is the first step of action, and i think your action of sharing this video with the public inspires so many other people to move forward ! thank you so much for sharing jade :))
3 Jade uploads in the space of a week? Heck yes my girl
Jade your camera skills what! It's improved so much I love it you should be so proud
gahhhhh this means so much!! 🥺🥰
Jade, your optimism is so contagious 🥺
You are such an amazing person Jade, you inspire me a lot! I really appreciate that you’ve been so open about body hair lately, it helps me a lot to see people like you talk about this stuff.
Hi Jade! My name is Elsa, I'm 19 years old and I'm from Sweden. I just wanted you to know that you inspire me so much and I wished you were my friend! I would be a better person with someone like you in my surrounding. I wish you all the best! ❤❤
The video choice when you were talking about 'heavy topics' was *mwah * btw! The waves crashing over the three of you and you just sitting still taking it all in - very symbolic :)
I want to grow out my armpit hair but I always end up chickening out. Seeing you do it I've decided to finally go for it, thank you.
Good luck and well done :))!! I’ve grown mine out too
I can't even describe how happy your videos make me! xx
this means so much 🥺 thank you for being here!! xx
Omg!!! I'm soo happy that jade is posting constantly 💓
jade you genuinely make me so happy it’s crazy
Just what I need to brighten up a rainy Saturday in England!☔️ thanks Jade 🥰
I’m so proud of you, how your channel is growing and how you are literally glowing more each and every day. Thank you for being a ray of sunshine ☀️
your videos are aways so beautiful and calming, yet make me think about the world and how to better myself. Thank you, Jade
You're such a ray of sunshine Jade!! I've also been growing out my armpit hair and people like you remind that it's okay! and not weird :) thanks for always making me see the positive side of life
I start my day with a video of Jade: my day will be beautiful!
Unjaded Jade uploaded: drops everything and watch
hi hello i adore you
@@UnJadedJade I love yoouuuu 💙 keep inspiring a lot of people.
Loving the frequency of your uploads
Every second of your videos, your Instagram stories or just a line from this videos description is casual magic of my day! 💕
I love your chaotic upload schedule more than anything
me too, me too. 😌
Love this video, I totally get you about the news just emotionally getting to you. I think it’s important to always remember to take time out, take breaks from all types of media to look after your well-being.
Your video makes us so happy😊
Thanks to awesome video😍
Not been in the best mental state lately and watching your videos really helps me realise and remind that we have to constantly make an effort to maintain our mental health and physical health. It's always about the Journey. Your words are magical, Jade 💕✨
I just love you so much. Your thoughts and words can give me a such a peaceful mindset. 💜 Sending love to you, too.
Jade I don't know what w connection we have whenever I see your videos it never feels like I am alone watching a person rambling about things but its always such a live interaction kind of thing for me . You are the only UA-camr whose videos I am always looking forward to see each day.Your personality is enlightening I love every espect of you the way you see things and handle them really gives a moment to forethought too. I have been really looking forward to meet you someday until then stay safe and healthy. Lots of love from my side
I loved the "rambling" in the end.. I can relate so much, I always feel like I should be aware and I try to get educated about the social issues but most of the time I can't help but bringing myself down by realizing my inability to make a huge impact on the world... It's reassuring to know that I'm not the only hopeless romantic, we're all in this together and it's nice to know that other people share the same struggles.
Jade I also love the music at the end, it gives me so much happiness for some reason and I always stay until the end to listen to it! Lot's of love and positive energy!!
By the way, I'm also studying abroad and I'm struggling a lot with the pandemic and everything so I just wanted to let you know that you have helped me a lot during this year, giving me positive energy and courage to keep keep going! You are my casual magic ✨
jade...every single thing you said is exactly what i’ve been feeling and overthinking about too. it’s really refreshing to see you tackle life with optimism and a smile! love you jade!💗
Such an aesthetic intro wow
what I do when I read news or somehow gets to know roomers, I think about them to make up my mind on how I want to see it, then I maby get to talk about it to someone close or to God/jurnal(in ur case), then do something else that makes me happy or makes my mind think of more important stuff, like my people or things I have to work on. I really like ur reflections on theemes, it really makes me think, thank you!
three videos in one week? jade I'm loving it and you are so on it this week! Hope you are dealing well with school work and stuff and good luck to everyone xx we can do it!
You are such an authentic person 💐🌈
Yaay, a new video!! Exactly what i need right now 🤭🥰
Jade I've been really depressed recently and honestly your videos are such a light. Your realistic positivity is the first thing I go to when I need to cheer myself up and this video was so helpful!! You are AMAZING keep it up!!! :))
The world can be so lucky to have someone like you ❤️
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS VIBE
So grateful for your thoughts you put out in your videos. Also have to say that I always watch your videos to the end because of the music which sort of wraps up the video, somehow in my mind it just lifts my mood and I love it. Thank you, Jade.

Hi Jade! I loved that bit at the end about processing all of the bad news and being unable to take action to change everything. It’s been so difficult for me also, I felt very validated when you addressed it 💙
Jade- this video is so well crafted! So glad to see you uploading again ❤️
i missed you soo much jade!!!! take of yourself and keep uploading these wonderful videos love youuuuuuuuu
thank you for this, very unexpected, study break that i needed so much because I'm burning out due to exams approaching, intense studying !!! thank you for reminding me to take care of my mental health. Have a good day Jade! :)
Omg I’m getting Jade two days in a row❤️✨ love your energy
you have no idea how much you inspire me, thank you!
I haven’t journaled or meditated in so long, this is the motivation I needed to get back into it.
When the world starts to feel overwhelming is exactly the time we need to, for lack of a better fitting statement, “count our blessings.” Whether it is something small, like the ability to have food that has nourished us that day, to something much bigger like being in a position to donate to a cause. It is easy to want to “fix” the world but a lot harder to just give back and be satisfied we did. No one and nothing will make the world “ideal,” whatever that means, but each individual just doing one small thing that didn’t do the day before towards making it a “better” place adds up. Even if you can’t do something everyday that you think counts - just being there for someone else can make the world different and you do that every day for yourself and for those you are there with too. Example: The couple who are always happy to see you who sell those sweet treats you like. Your presence makes them smile and when you buy their goods, you “improved” their outcome just a little bit more. As you point out, there is “casual magic” all around you, but your place and your actions just day-to-day also cause casual, slow but ever moving change in it as well. Don’t overwhelm yourself with: How can we “fix” this or “fix” that and instead focus on, what did I do today that made a difference, however small or large?
PS - At one point Ariadne stood up and (while you were on the grass) said, “Jade doesn’t have a face now. That’s creepy.” 😂 Your shades and mask made it appear your face was gone. 😂
Watching your videos make me want to move to a different country and embrace their culture!!! I’ve been living in the US my entire life
Jade I’ve also been growing out my armpit hair! I started in september 2020 and haven’t shaved since! What an empowering feeling
Hi Jade!!!!! I am Korean and I graduated from University of Manchester and watched your videos which showed how you studied A level !! And you are in Korea now!!!! Time so flies :) I hope you had a great time in Korea !!!
Honestly, as an empath, I feel the exact same way you do. Somethings I've done to help is deleting social media and consciously checking the news less, and balancing when I do check the news with a walk in nature so that as I'm listening to horrible things I can see the trees and the grass and birds and animals and realize that the horrible thing isn't everything. It might sound counter-intuitive to check those things less because we obviously want to be aware and informed, but I've come to realize that I trust that I know these issues. I trust that I know enough to make changes in my day to day life, and anything more that I know will just leave me feeling helpless and won't help anyone. Also, I trust that if there is a big enough piece of news, or something that I have to know, it will make its way to me. There's a balance that I have to find between being informed enough to where I make informed decisions and feel like I can help, but not being too informed to where it just makes me sad. When I first started doing this I felt a lot of guilt because I was kind of ignoring certain things that I felt shouldn't be ignored, but it has to be done. I can't help the world in the ways that I want to if I pay attention to every little thing, and I believe that as humans we're a team, and I'm not acting as a team player if I need all the information. Someone else will get the information that I missed and use it to change their actions in their life, whereas if I got it it would just make me sad. I hope that makes sense, and I hope you figure out how to balance everything Jade. You got this, and it's a beautiful thing that you care so much and want to help, and we can change the world and be happy while doing it.
PS I was in the 30 day challenge and was on the zoom call and was the one that wanted to take a gap year but couldn't because of covid and had no idea what to do next. Well, an update on that, I'm doing a 9 month immersion program in France starting in September that gets you ready to go to school there! I'm so excited, and everything really did figure itself out. Also, I still journal and meditate every morning, we love building habits!!
You have so much energy. I don't know how easy you trying to do it every day something new. Maybe you were born a more positive person than another. Since the covid, there are a lot of social issues and people get anxiety and worry about the future, etc. When I don't have a productive life of the day, I really hate myself. I am still looking for an exit. By the way, I like your lovely smile and sharing your life. From NY.
Jade you have no idea how much I needed to watch one of your videos you are such a beautiful soul and I now have some good motivation for studying for my exams :) Lots of love 💕
It's so nice to see u uploading frequently!!! It's so hard to balance that feeling of wanting to do everything and yet being exhausted bc of it. I think with the whole news thing it's okay to allow yourself to take a break or just go on the news for five minutes and then not interact with those things for the rest of the day on social media. Especially because a lot of the time change can come in small actions like writing to your MP, signing petitions, or donating what you can to charity ☺️ thank you for uploading again - it makes me so happy!
Life isn’t perfect. You just can’t change that fact. Do your best in your personal life level, be a good person, if everyone did that the world will be a safer place.
Take care 🤍
That last bit about the heaviness with the waves in the background resignated so much with me. ♡ I always feel heavy and helpless and I don't know how to deal with it. So I push it away, don't take action, feel bad.
Thanks for the body hair motivation ! And the hygiene misconception update !
We were blessed with another beautifully edited video? THANK YOU
yaaaay! it's so nice seeing you walk around Seoul and enjoying it 🥰 I'm a student of Korean Studies and I'm also currently on my exchange here, I love it so much!
Watching your videos at the end of the day to unwind and relax is the best thing ever ✨
🥰🥰✨
I am so happy that you are talking about hair! I stopped shaving my legs over a year ago because I just couldn't be bothered, but about 6 months ago I decided to stop shaving my armpits too! I have received a lot of backlash from the men in my life but I persist! I am dyeing my armpit hair to make myself feel more confident and cool! WOmen shouldn't have to shave their body hair! It is not disgusting or weird it is natural!!!!!!
I think the key to turning anxiety and fear from reading news to action is to find community. Simply knowing and interacting with people who feel the same way can relieve that stress. But more importantly, you can organize collective action to actually do something about the issues we experience or read about in the news. Hope y’all can find some kind of community to enact change ❤️
Jack, Ruby, *and* Jade all uploaded? Today is a good day
you make my day better
I’m so jealous of jade her life seems so perfect
No one's life if perfect, it can seem that way from the outside but we all have struggles.
To channel ur energy I feel that doing art to show how passionate u r about the problem def helps u feel like ur doing something to change the world almost energetically. Maybe acting upon that passion once the emotion has passed may even help u come to terms with the emotions u feel when u read the news... idk a rlly nice stream of consciousness right there😄😄😄😅😅
Love that you still wear shirts from your Motivated collection! Me too 💖
I was having a bad day today . Was overthinking a lot of stuffs . This video was relatable.Thank you so much for posting this and talking about mental health . :))
As an hsp I highly sense what I read, see, feel around me etc. It's pretty intense and most of the times overwhelming. Everyday I need to have 30 min or 1 hour to rest and to be with me thoughts. I choose it like that, cuz' I don't think it's right to ignore what's around me just because of my sensitivity. My sensitivity is a quality I can use of my favour cuz' it gives me a better comprehesion of the world, in my pov.
Love this video!
I have never been consisted in journaling but seeing you so happy make me wanna do it!
yeaaam I got the 14 day trial, thank you jade!
Jade you are the best, best wishes❤
I think emotional reactions are very useful and powerful and can definitely be action-guiding! Being rational is not necessarily superior to being emotional, nor are they as separated as we often think. I think there's also some internalised misogyny in us trying to be rational and sort of detached from issues and viewing them 'objectively'. 'Objectivity' is very often just the subjective view of the most powerful (western rich cis-het males khm) oppressing the subjectivity and emotionality of others.
U seem so happy that u are excited to share them with us! Makes me feel like I should visit the place too
My strategy to feeling overwhelmed and heavy by the news is to not read it - which I hate a little but I also figure if there is an issue that I have power to deal with, it will be brought to my attention. I still know what goes on from my other friends who are less empathetic and keep up to date but for now that’s my solution. I think you can teach yourself to not have an emotional reaction but ultimately that’s not something I want to do. I feel your pain Jade ❤️
I've also been growing out my body hair and it's been a challenge! I choose not to shave because it's not something that I want to do, but I also don't really *want* to have body hair. I'd rather it not grow at all hahaha so it has been a struggle to accept that I now am a woman who doesn't shave but I am also sometimes self conscious about it!! So I loved learning that you're also going through it 🌼
Hey, Jade I just wanted to say that I love your content and love your personality. You have definitely changed my view about life and how you should always be grateful for what you have.
Btw: the first vid that I saw was abt learning dutch (I'm dutch) and I saw how hardworking you are. That really inspired me because I have to admit that it's a difficult language.
10:15 LOVE this shot! Wow!
I'm also not shaving at the moment and honestly it was really nice to hear that Jade finds it kinda hard because it can make me really self conscious ://
Armpit hair is there for a reason! I grow it too and there's no reason to feel bad about it! You go girl!
so spoiled with that many uploads! 🥰
Ahhh I missed your videos so so much!! Loving these past few uploads :)
