I share this Testimony to partners suffering in relationship, lost marriages or lost something and wanna get it back, there is a Solution!.My husband left me and our kids for another woman for 11 months. I tried to be strong but couldn't. I was hurt and confuse, I needed a help so i did a research on the internet and came across a site where I saw Dr Zebho a spell caster who can get lovers back together happily again, can help in spiritual problems too. I contacted him and he did a special prayer and spell now, my husband is back and i have a happy home..You can also contact the temple on zebho.spelltemple@gmail.com
I have grown so much after discovering this channel. I'm so grateful anyway here are the questions if it's helpful 1:36 what did I want to do as a child? and what about that life excited me? 3:12 what am I curious about? and how can I take a small step in that direction 5:57 who do I admire and why? 6:51 what life skills do I wish I had? 8:04 in what ways have I been settling in life? 9:33 do I just need a break?
You are NOT alone!! We’ve all been there. More often then not, the distance of taking a step back creates clarity. Having a seat and reflecting. Being in tune with yourself can be so helpful. Listen to yourself and be open to explore your curiosity. :) From a self love content creator to another, loved this topic Aileen! ❣️
Same cuz my dad always told me what I should be so I never questioned it and went with and now that I am a teenager I am still doing what my dad is telling me. And I don't really have a passion in anything....I used to like art but now I don't enjoy the process of making art anymore.....I am planning to study management in college but I am not at all interested in it I'm only gonna do it because of the high salary.
When I first started following you about 4 years ago, I was really lost. I was working a front desk job as a receptionist for a few years (first job after college). I graduated with a music degree and was so scared about starting a career in education or music. Fast forward to 2018, I quit my job, started my teaching career and it’s been so incredible. As I enter year two of taking that leap of faith, I feel like it’s time to assess and look around. The last two years have been non-stop, go go go..! And I’m still going. I’m looking forward to a little break. I’m in my dream life, but sometimes the dream life is chaotic. It’s time to re-balance. 💖💖 Thanks for the videos, you are so important in my journey! Looking forward to another year of The Artist of Life 💛
Reading this made me realise. what I am going through. I had passed my school and I had to make a choice to choose a one of the three main subjects to choose my career I was scared too. In Pear presure i ended up choosing science which all my friends had chosen. but now it looks like I am going to fail I have come back to the place where I was lost now I feel like I have lost my opportunity to make the writing choice. But now I think I should go for what I am curious about and start over again thank you for helping me
I was literally just having a whole questioning-everything-moment this morning and this video is SO needed and helpful. Thank you Aileen. Reminding me of my inner child and their needs 🥰
So true, life is more interesting when you're exploring and don't know exactly what's next. But it can be harder to enjoy if you feel lost or unsuccessful!
@@_XAV_ Exactly.... Unfortunately though, too many people have bought into the Government & MSM propaganda & lies. Many people believe everything MSM tells them nightly & are actually living in fear of a virus barely even a half percent (.5%) deadlier than the yearly influenza A or B viruses. Businesses & the people who've gotten & continue to get the jabs will most likely blame, turn against & protest this on-going PLANdemic & government tyranny on the unvaxxed way before they realize their government is the Sole problem & stand up against the Government & their trusted "experts" like Anthony, I killed all the AIDS paitents that kept taking the poisons I prescribed them, Fauci & Bill, I'm a eugenicist & so was my father, Gates! This ain't going away anytime soon, they'll be claiming new outbreaks of mutated variants of covid19 & usurping people's freedoms til U.N. Agenda 2030 is in place worldwide or communism is in place worldwide.... Ohhh, wait.... They're both the same, a total loss of freedom! If anyone is feeling lost in life & needs a purpose Go stand up & fight against your countries tyrannical government leaders and or those that rule your countries & it's laws!
omg it's like you knew I am currently in my feels listening to sad songs and crying about feeling lost hahah. This honestly couldn't come at a better time
Just know it's totally okay to be in that place. We're all, collectively, clearing out a lot of baggage. Be kind to yourself and let those feelings flow ❤
"They are watching you... but you are stronger, more powerful than you can imagine, they cannot harm you anymore... you are made of light, you are eternal" This came to my mind while meditating with this music... my heart rate was strong, I started to swing softly... like... vibrating? I don't know... just wanted to share... Love to everyone... specially YOU!
I'm a lazy commenter , I see your every single video but never comment about it . But today I really need this( was crying in my bathroom few moments before ) Thanks 😊
I got so emotional to tears, watching and listening to this video...post-graduation depression is real and I am still not sure what career I want to follow ( even after getting my Associate’s and Bachelor’s. I’ve been taking extended education classes for a major I switched out of but I still think about my creative side, and my inner child that always wanted to be an artist, poet, or fashion designer but I let my mother influence me to fear that I won’t be able to make a living and so now I am in this rut of thinking where I’m heading next. Definitely taking a break after 6 years of college. Thank you for this! 💕
As an art school grad...YOU WON'T MAKE MONEY as an artist. Most of my fellow art school grads ended up in non-related office jobs.Do art on the side if you can, its crazy hard to make money in artistic fields.
This comment is near exactly what I’m going through… I cried from watching this video because I also graduated with a Bachelor’s degree, only to end up wanting to go a whole different direction (also artsy side). Normal jobs don’t appeal to me, and my parents also wouldn’t really support my simple / directionless lifestyle. I wish this video helped my self-confidence, but instead I realize I’m not super skilled at anything nor do I feel any closer to get where I need to be. I am sorry we are in this boat.
Right now I'm feeling lost, with so many questions and concerns in my mind, without knowing what career path to take, but this video really makes me feel like there's nothing wrong feeling this way and that I will soon be able to see the clarity in my life! Don't overwhelmed yourself, just enjoy the process! ❤️
Questions: 1. what did you want to do as a child? 2. what are you curious about? 3. who do i admire and why? 4. what life skills do i wish i had? 5. in what ways have i been settling in life? 6. do i just need a break?
I don't know the answers to any of these questions. Except 5 and 6. Yes and yes... now what?

I recommend everyone to look into their north node/ destiny in astrology ✨ When I left lost, I started to look into astrology. And what I wanted to do as a child aligned with my north node. And learning about my north node confirmed what I should do and explore in life.
Yes but in my lost time I don't do anything... I'm just depressed... I feel like nothing interest me. The only things I like it's artistic things like music, comedy, fashion, sports, etc. But I am not talented so I have to find something else... And my parents don't really help me with it but at the same time I understand them. It's hard to live from art, you have to be very talented for that. So I feel like I just have to take what is available for me and that really scares me... And I don't have the guts to experience things, I am to shy... I think that is the real problem... I think your video will help me a lot, it gives me so much hope when I watch it ! I want to keep this energy to go out of my confort zone and try things that truly interest me
Amazing how every human feels this at some point regardless of what and how much you did, it’s himan nature to wonder “am I just wasting away my life?”. But if you just ask this question, that is enough. The answer is not important. You were brave and introspective.
I'm 23 and feeling so lost in life. I have no one, parents for example, to ask some advice from. So thank you for making me feel better through this video.
My husband just told me to embrace everything .... Then, you just mentioned it. Syncronicity! I'm on a journey of healing myself right now. I just want to let you know that you inspire me a lot, Aileen! Thank you for sharing your light and love! To anyone who needs hug right now... *virtual hug*
I feel lost because i have bad grades ever since i was quarantined and absent for a while i have many missing assignments. Grades are due in one wk. i want to get all A’s and B’s all year but sometimes it gets hard because no matter how how i try my grades would not improve. Thats why I’m here:)
I wanted to became an astronomer as child, I love the space. Maybe it's related to my passion for travels! In my life I'd travel every week. Video super interesting!
Very interesting ideas to write down! Very useful!! I'm in my 20's, turned 25 recently, and I'm feeling lost more than ever, very anxious about feeling the time flies and thinking "Oh my god I'm 25 and I still don't know where to go!". Thank you
What a perfect time. I was writing a question for myself 'what I've done in a week, in a month', and your video popped up on my screen.. Thank you, Aileen for always giving us inspiration in bettering our lives.
I often long to go back and be my 17-year-old self, before I started to learn that people in the world aren't as loving as I expected them to be. I didn't have inhibitions or negative thoughts, or doubt; I just went after what I wanted. I would learn the steps to get to my goal, and the steps would look more like fun than work. I would often look at all of the things that I COULD do and very rarely believed that I couldn't (I couldn't see why not). And I accepted my flaws and would do my best, and be proud of myself, even when I wasn't perfect. Now I find myself searching and searching for my purpose; especially after I loved someone so much, knowing that I wasn't able to make them happy. And then battling OCD, and all of this uncertainty after getting laid off. Some days I am glad that I don't need to be somewhere, and other days I wish I had something to work towards during my day (I get up, do some cleaning, apply for jobs (afraid of ending up in a work environment), and then what? I had the goal of completing an art piece, but then sometimes I stall and search for something to push me forward. So there I sit, grieving over losses, feeling lost, and knowing that I can't feel sorry for myself because I know that I am not the only one going through stuff.
Thanks. I'm feeling too lost and had this down side, depression followed by suicidal thoughts. Thats why i started therapy. But is not easy... Is a very hard thing to do, not impossible. But for those used to rush and control and plan... This year has been very stressing. To stop and enjoy the present moment is not the easiest thing
I've been overthinking a lot about why I feel lost and where to go, it felt like there wasn't an answer and I didn't know how to deal with it. Then this video popped up in my recommendations and this has probably been the closest I could get to to figuring out why I feel like that. I really love that you reminded us to be gentle with ourselves when asking more deep and difficult questions. Thanks so much for making videos like this Aileen!
I'm living over 500km from my family and studying medicine, and today I had such a big mental breakdown that I had been crying for 3 hours nonstop. I haven't done anything that I have planned earlier and I was so angry with myself. At the same time, I didn't know what should I start with so I did nothing today. Then this video popped up in my recommendations and I just want to say that your voice is so calming and this video helped me a little bit with anxiety, so thank you for your hard work
Thank you for this video. I do think. However, that "do I just need a break?" Is the very first question you need to ask yourself....or, better yet, dont ask, just take one. I've been in this place more times than I can count, and my first course of action is Always, to take a pause, even if it's just a day or two...just stop back and stop trying to Do, and give myself permission to just Be. So many insights can come from just stopping for a moment. ❤
Lavendaire - your videos are so inspiring. I love your energy, the content and how you present your videos. Who else feels the same? 🙌🏼❤️ Feeling lost in life is completely normal, especially with the huge shift and transition that we are all going through this year. Something that I read recently said - there are 2 types of life purposes: #1 is your inner purpose: simply put, your inner purpose is to awaken, understand yourself on a deeper level and learn to love yourself unconditionally. #2 is your outer purpose: this is how we make sure that what we are doing on an outer level aligns with our inner purpose highlighting our ability to help others, while earning a living & creating our dream life. This info was really helpful to me, as I was diving deep into my inner purpose this year and while this was going on, I started to realized that my outer purpose was no longer aligned with me. I am now making shifts to change my outer purpose to align with my goals. And Lanvendaire is right, it may seem overwhelming and hard at first, but trust that everything that is happening, is happening for a reason and working out best case scenario - even if it does not feel like it right now. Amazing video & great questions that we can ask. "As above, so below." Wishing everyone an amazing day ❤️
Thank you for posing these questions. I'll be 22 next month and I've had at least 3 mental breakdowns this past year about my life and not having any clear direction on what I want to do. The violent nature of capitalism is the immense pressure to have your life figured out already because you have to pay to exist comfortably. Everything you need to survive has been monetized. So, you're left feeling like "If I don't have my life together so that I'm making enough money to survive, I'm a failure and I'm failing at life." That's what I've been battling. But, after watching this video, I got universal confirmation that I need to remove that mental and external pressure from myself in order to let love and spontaneity enter into my life now. Getting back to my roots of childhood carelessness so that I can once again enjoy the journey of life rather than trying to force finish lines for the outside world to approve of. Thank you again.
I don't know if you know this or not.your a life changer. U help so many people to overcome stress I was in depression for ten months your a angel who saved me.u will definitely success in life cus u deserve it.
I also have the mindset that it's okay to now have everything figured out, but there are times when my mind would say "okay I'm lost, now what?" I guess I'm just trying to find something to ground myself, and being lost is like floating through life. It's especially hard to do things with the pandemic going on, and sometimes I would shame myself because It's been a long time and I haven't fully "adjusted" I really appreciate this video because it served as a refresher and in a way, provided the grounding that I needed ❤️
I think we all go through these periods multiple times in life, even when we've actually found our path. I figured out I want to be a teacher but I still have moments when I'm like: Do I really? So yeah.. haha
I’m only in middle school, but this video has really helped me! I wanted to become good at drawing, but then it started to get boring, it was too simple of a goal for me and I wasn’t sure what to do. I became lost because it was just like..”so this is it? All I want to do is become good at drawing?” But this video has helped me look into different ways of art instead of just drawing. I feel less lost and now I know what I can do!
✨🎊Happy Diwali to Aileen and everyone in this amazing community!!! 🥳🎉May this Diwali bring light and hope in your life. ✨May you illuminate from your present state💖 Lots of love from India😊!!
I've done this exercise twice previously and I'm about to do it again. I just want to take a moment to show some gratitude. I'm really grateful and thankful that you created this video. A big step I took last year was fuelled by following my curiosity, that small spark I had and its led me on a beautiful journey that I wouldn't change for the world. Thank you
Many times as a female especially now that I'm 30 who only finished an associate's degree and is single, I feel like I haven't achieved enough or done enough or established enough. And now that I'm in a different state for a fresh start I've been feeling that again for the last 2yrs. But looking back, I did achieve things when I was a teaching assistant and helping children grow and elevate them to another level in their schooling and lives. I was stressed and burned out but I did accomplish something whether I see the results or not. Now being here in a boring job, I gotta not stress and see what path to take again. I already established fundamentals in my friend's kids while I temporarily stayed with them. And going off on your own for adventure is so true. I did that on a family cruise and had more edification doing my own thing on the different islands than I would've staying with the group. So now I'll see the next step in my life and try to learn to enjoy the journey and process as it comes.
I was in quarantine for the last week and had to be out of work and home alone. I basically sat at home depressed and bored all week and I wish i took the time to do some soul searching or self betterment. oh well, it doesn’t have to take being out of work to be able to work on myself! here’s to growth 🥂
I'm at home, sick with covid and I have PTO for another 5 days. I thought this would be a good time for rest and introspective work... This video really helps! Thank you.
Last year I was lost but when I watched your video it really helped me rethink my path in life which what happened this year again I'm lost but all thanks to you I might not be for a long time your video is so comforting thanks for the effort❤❤❤
Hello Aileen, I just discovered your amazing channel. You have so much insight and wisdom. Thank you for sharing your journey. I am exactly lost, nor that I am a lost cause LOL but lost in my career journey. I am in my early 50's and finally trying to rediscover my true calling in life. The question about "what did I want to do as a child' brought me to tears because it was a reminder that connecting with people and seeing people succeed is what brings me joy. Keep inspiring people, you sure inspired me. Hugs
Thank you so much.. you made my day... you save my life... thank you I don't have friends so I don't talk with someone to give me these positive words ☁️✨🥺
I'm 21 and I'm already feeling lost in my life, I'm only a Senior High School graduate and I tend to compare my self to my previous classmates who has the privilege on going to college. I'm quite a shame of myself since they are almost graduating to college and yet I haven't started. After I graduate I was restlessly looking for a job and thank God I didn't. However I don't want to be stuck at my job that I don't even know if I like. I badly want to stop thinking lost and negativity in my life. Thank God I stumbled upon this channel 😭😭😭
Thank you so much for this inspiring video . I'm in the period of my life where I'm feeling lost regarding my future carrer. You've given me a huge hope .
After watching your video about what to do if your feelings lost I just pick up my diary and write everything what I want to know and what I want to do thank u so much
This video came at the perfect time. I’ve been feeling so lost and really not seeing the point in life. I feel like as soon as I find my path I lose it. I really related to everything you said in this video and although the questions help I think the biggest take away for me was “Every moment is beautiful.” I have to remind myself a lot that life moves in seasons. Seasons of exploration, happiness, wonder, sadness or grief. There is a time for everything and nothing lasts forever. With the pandemic I’m feeling like my options are a little less open and I’m not as free as I was before but there is beauty in that too. How many times was I too busy to have Netflix days, or wishing I could just lay in bed all day as I run out the door. But I do want to push myself more I’m just at a place where I don’t know if I still have the effort to try. Thanks for your video though, it really does help. ❤️
The part that really resonated with me is when Aileen said that when you are feeling lost, it is the time to explore and try new things. I'm in my early twenties and I'm not sure where I want to go in life just yet. I feel like I have so many interests, but I am also being quite hard on myself to know exactly what I want to do. When Aileen said this, it was like a woah moment for me. Instantly my brain was like 'wait what, it's okay to just try new things for the sake of seeing where life takes me????'! what a breath of fresh air! I've been wanting to start a UA-cam channel, a blog, a store, and travel around the US in a tiny van...I think Imma start that and see where it goes! Thank you so much Aileen!! Much Love
i just wanna say thank you for this, because i was in the middle of a depressive episode and i was having trouble coming out of it, but this helped me kinda challenge those negative thoughts, so i appreciate it
One of the best things that happened to me last month (26th of October), youtube algorithm recommended one of Lavendaire's video and I watched it. It hasn't been one month but I saw how my perspectives changed positively. Personally, I have no person in my life which I can openly talk or taught me things about personal growth and lifestyle design and I am so happy and grateful for this channel. THANK YOU A LOT, AILEEN!! All the love from Philippines ♡ Edited: This video resonated to me so much since I just graduated 2 months ago and I srsly don't know where to go from here. I've been feeling like I'm not making any progress since I kept receiving NOs from jobs I applied for. But I know if I keep being persistent, I'll be able to land a job soon. And here I am enjoying or being excited about life since I don't have anything figured out. OPPORTUNITIES ARE OUT THERE. I JUST GOTTA KEEP LOOKING!!
It's easy to "feel good about being lost" when you know your path, already built something amazing and have financial security.Wonder if she had crushing student debt or was in financial trouble while feeling lost. Regardless, this is a great exercise and people should be more okay and open when lost - just think there could be some extra add on questions like "what can I afford?" and "doesn't this fit into the structure I've already built?"
At the age of 17, I'm felt so lost and afraid where should I go. I felt so exhausted trying to get out from my comfort zone and it just gave me pain. Because i just push myself too hard. Now, I'm the middle of healing. All the past pain and all the negative memories I have before. I knew it just a step to move forward I'm still not there but, I'm getting there.
I think a lot of people are feeling very lost because of all of the craziness going on in the world. I'm looking for a career change because my industry is completely thrown off due to covid and it's lasting effects. Great timing for this video :)
*2:20** - **3:08* *MY LIFE, IN A NUTSHELL,* I wanted to be an astronaut, now I feel like I don't want to become one, but space always excites me, exploring the unknown always excites me, and now I want to travel the world and explore it.*
1. What did I want to do as a child? And what about that life excited me? 2. What I'm curious about? Make a lisf. How I can take small step in that direction. 3. Who do I admire and why? People you wanna be like. 4. What life skills I wish I had? Finish the sentence: I wish I knew how to ... 5. In what ways I have been settling in life? 6. Do I just need a break?
Omg 😱 I love you and your name Everything I need in life without you nothing will work for me because I have no friends 😊 you make me happy so much keep up the good work 😊 Can you do one how to make friends?
I sometimes feel lost because there are many things in my mind that I want to do and it makes me feel anxious or stressed. I know that I am not as lost as I was two years ago but yeah, that’s how I feel. However, I am trying to be consistent and committed in my thoughts and ideas, and this video is very helpful. In fact, I just realized that I kind of get to know myself more when I watch your videos and ask your questions so thank you so much
Thanks beautiful soul! Always great advice. A very wise man once said that he was asked the question....Would you rather live in a mansion and have the most expensive things in life and be treated as if you were royalty all the days of your life OR would you want to travel? He replied....there is only 1 answer to that and it would be travel..everywhere and anywhere...because it is only in those moments that you will seek and you will find out who you really are and it is only then that growth in your life will take place. It will be the time when your mind,body and spirit will have the answers. Try it. You will understand. I absolutely loved that! I wanted to share it with all of you beautiful people out there. Have a great day. 🤩😍😊🤗😷💟
This video came at a perfect time a co worker of mine was suggesting that I look into being a therapist and I feel curious about it but I was going back and forth with myself on if I'd want to or not and my best actually said "why don't you take a small online course and get a certification to see how you like it?" Point is I can't wait to experience the value of these questions after answering them. Thank you Alieen so much for what you do! ❤❤❤
I love your hair color and the wave! It suits every lipstick color in my opinion. The curiosity is a good tip for me because I really don’t like anything at all, and that makes me feel stressed because I can’t plan if there’s no vision. But whenever there are video about painting or calligraphy, it makes me wanna do it but it’s just hard but if it’s really what I wanna do then maybe I shouldn’t give up on it even if it’s just a hobby.
The advice about curiosity was super helpful. Most videos or articles about feeling lost jump straight to "finding your passion," but I never could figure out how to get there. Thank you :)
I always feel so energized when i look upto your videos. And your videos has always helped me in my life almost in every situation. Thank you for helping me and other people all over the world. I love you so much 🥰❤️ sending lots of love from India ✨
Feeling lost or any other challenging emotion or situation is the first step that I'm on to finding the answer or outcome to something important to me leading to clarity. I loved this video Aileen resonates with me 🐾🐾
Thanks for this video!! ❤️ I realized some months ago, that I often feel lost when I can't see where I came from anymore. When I feel like my success isn't something great anymore because "I need to set new goals now". I'm really learning to compliment myself more often and show myself love for all the things I do. And when I do this I feel less lost or not lost at all anymore 😊

I share this Testimony to partners suffering in relationship, lost marriages or lost something and wanna get it back, there is a Solution!.My husband left me and our kids for another woman for 11 months. I tried to be strong but couldn't. I was hurt and confuse, I needed a help so i did a research on the internet and came across a site where I saw Dr Zebho a spell caster who can get lovers back together happily again, can help in spiritual problems too. I contacted him and he did a special prayer and spell now, my husband is back and i have a happy home..You can also contact the temple on zebho.spelltemple@gmail.com

Same here! Just know we will get trough all of this and that you aren’t alone🤍✨

This is absolutely powerful!
You are NOT alone!! We’ve all been there. More often then not, the distance of taking a step back creates clarity. Having a seat and reflecting. Being in tune with yourself can be so helpful. Listen to yourself and be open to explore your curiosity. :)
From a self love content creator to another, loved this topic Aileen! ❣️

first question comes in:
me: doesn't really remember childhood thoughts or desires
ua-cam.com/video/xbMY6TFdskU/v-deo.html
Same
SAME 😭
Same cuz my dad always told me what I should be so I never questioned it and went with and now that I am a teenager I am still doing what my dad is telling me. And I don't really have a passion in anything....I used to like art but now I don't enjoy the process of making art anymore.....I am planning to study management in college but I am not at all interested in it I'm only gonna do it because of the high salary.
I feel lost because I let the “job” define who I am.
Saaaaame
💯
Same even though I still dont have a job. 😅
Me the same, over anxiety with my jobs
Same, now i left my job during Pandemic and finding new me, i hope u don’t give up on yourself
My thing is that a lot of times I don’t feel lost like the whole day but just like 30min everyday. Anyone else has that?
Mine goes on and off throughout the day
Sometimes and not everyday ...
As she said , it could be an opportunity to learn and rediscover...
@Victor Regouin i feel lost periodically....which will occur every 5 days.....for me the solution is spending time with my family and friends
30 minutes ? Lucky you.
I can’t even say I feel good for 30 minutes in a day !!

On point. "Being lost is an opportunity to rediscover yourself".. i'll keep that in mind ❤️
When I first started following you about 4 years ago, I was really lost. I was working a front desk job as a receptionist for a few years (first job after college). I graduated with a music degree and was so scared about starting a career in education or music. Fast forward to 2018, I quit my job, started my teaching career and it’s been so incredible. As I enter year two of taking that leap of faith, I feel like it’s time to assess and look around. The last two years have been non-stop, go go go..! And I’m still going. I’m looking forward to a little break. I’m in my dream life, but sometimes the dream life is chaotic. It’s time to re-balance. 💖💖 Thanks for the videos, you are so important in my journey! Looking forward to another year of The Artist of Life 💛
So beautiful to read your journey and stretching! Bravo sistah 👏🏻👏🏻☀️🌸
Reading this made me realise. what I am going through. I had passed my school and I had to make a choice to choose a one of the three main subjects to choose my career I was scared too. In Pear presure i ended up choosing science which all my friends had chosen. but now it looks like I am going to fail I have come back to the place where I was lost now I feel like I have lost my opportunity to make the writing choice. But now I think I should go for what I am curious about and start over again thank you for helping me
I was literally just having a whole questioning-everything-moment this morning and this video is SO needed and helpful. Thank you Aileen. Reminding me of my inner child and their needs 🥰
❤️❤️
I have schizophrenia and I would like to smoke marijuana. Do you know something about marijuana? Do you smoke marijuana? Can you help me?
So true, life is more interesting when you're exploring and don't know exactly what's next. But it can be harder to enjoy if you feel lost or unsuccessful!
These days I have become more lazy and totally lost and confused, I wish all of this ends and we have our normal lives back
Me too ☹️
Amen to that! Preach! 🤗
If we don’t stand up against this tyranny it won’t end.
@@_XAV_
Exactly....
Unfortunately though, too many people have bought into the Government & MSM propaganda & lies. Many people believe everything MSM tells them nightly & are actually living in fear of a virus barely even a half percent (.5%) deadlier than the yearly influenza A or B viruses.
Businesses & the people who've gotten & continue to get the jabs will most likely blame, turn against & protest this on-going PLANdemic & government tyranny on the unvaxxed way before they realize their government is the Sole problem & stand up against the Government & their trusted "experts" like Anthony, I killed all the AIDS paitents that kept taking the poisons I prescribed them, Fauci & Bill, I'm a eugenicist & so was my father, Gates!
This ain't going away anytime soon, they'll be claiming new outbreaks of mutated variants of covid19 & usurping people's freedoms til U.N. Agenda 2030 is in place worldwide or communism is in place worldwide....
Ohhh, wait.... They're both the same, a total loss of freedom!
If anyone is feeling lost in life & needs a purpose
Go stand up & fight against your countries tyrannical government leaders and or those that rule your countries & it's laws!
omg it's like you knew I am currently in my feels listening to sad songs and crying about feeling lost hahah. This honestly couldn't come at a better time
Aww sending you love
Just know it's totally okay to be in that place. We're all, collectively, clearing out a lot of baggage. Be kind to yourself and let those feelings flow ❤
🤗☀️🌸✨
"They are watching you... but you are stronger, more powerful than you can imagine, they cannot harm you anymore... you are made of light, you are eternal" This came to my mind while meditating with this music... my heart rate was strong, I started to swing softly... like... vibrating? I don't know... just wanted to share... Love to everyone... specially YOU!
Whenever I am feeling lost i came back to this video and enjoying being lost, exploring new things..
I realize rn that I've been lost for my whole life and still am. Sometimes I envy those people who found their passion and love what they are doing.
I'm a lazy commenter , I see your every single video but never comment about it . But today I really need this( was crying in my bathroom few moments before ) Thanks 😊

Have a great day everyone, remember you matter😘💕

I got so emotional to tears, watching and listening to this video...post-graduation depression is real and I am still not sure what career I want to follow ( even after getting my Associate’s and Bachelor’s. I’ve been taking extended education classes for a major I switched out of but I still think about my creative side, and my inner child that always wanted to be an artist, poet, or fashion designer but I let my mother influence me to fear that I won’t be able to make a living and so now I am in this rut of thinking where I’m heading next. Definitely taking a break after 6 years of college. Thank you for this! 💕
As an art school grad...YOU WON'T MAKE MONEY as an artist. Most of my fellow art school grads ended up in non-related office jobs.Do art on the side if you can, its crazy hard to make money in artistic fields.
This comment is near exactly what I’m going through… I cried from watching this video because I also graduated with a Bachelor’s degree, only to end up wanting to go a whole different direction (also artsy side). Normal jobs don’t appeal to me, and my parents also wouldn’t really support my simple / directionless lifestyle. I wish this video helped my self-confidence, but instead I realize I’m not super skilled at anything nor do I feel any closer to get where I need to be. I am sorry we are in this boat.
Right now I'm feeling lost, with so many questions and concerns in my mind, without knowing what career path to take, but this video really makes me feel like there's nothing wrong feeling this way and that I will soon be able to see the clarity in my life!
Don't overwhelmed yourself, just enjoy the process! ❤️
Questions:
1. what did you want to do as a child?
2. what are you curious about?
3. who do i admire and why?
4. what life skills do i wish i had?
5. in what ways have i been settling in life?
6. do i just need a break?
I don't know the answers to any of these questions. Except 5 and 6. Yes and yes... now what?
I recommend everyone to look into their north node/ destiny in astrology ✨ When I left lost, I started to look into astrology. And what I wanted to do as a child aligned with my north node. And learning about my north node confirmed what I should do and explore in life.
North node can truly help.
This seems very interesting, I'm going to look for it, thanks for the advice!
@@aririi5997 Awesome! Hope you enjoy it
What’s that?
Yes! Love that you brought this up
Yes but in my lost time I don't do anything... I'm just depressed... I feel like nothing interest me. The only things I like it's artistic things like music, comedy, fashion, sports, etc. But I am not talented so I have to find something else... And my parents don't really help me with it but at the same time I understand them. It's hard to live from art, you have to be very talented for that. So I feel like I just have to take what is available for me and that really scares me... And I don't have the guts to experience things, I am to shy... I think that is the real problem... I think your video will help me a lot, it gives me so much hope when I watch it ! I want to keep this energy to go out of my confort zone and try things that truly interest me
Amazing how every human feels this at some point regardless of what and how much you did, it’s himan nature to wonder “am I just wasting away my life?”. But if you just ask this question, that is enough. The answer is not important. You were brave and introspective.
I'm 23 and feeling so lost in life. I have no one, parents for example, to ask some advice from. So thank you for making me feel better through this video.
My husband just told me to embrace everything .... Then, you just mentioned it. Syncronicity!
I'm on a journey of healing myself right now. I just want to let you know that you inspire me a lot, Aileen! Thank you for sharing your light and love!
To anyone who needs hug right now... *virtual hug*
Right back at you sistah 🤗☀️🌸
I feel lost because i have bad grades ever since i was quarantined and absent for a while i have many missing assignments. Grades are due in one wk. i want to get all A’s and B’s all year but sometimes it gets hard because no matter how how i try my grades would not improve. Thats why I’m here:)
Same:(
I'm 31 years old and I'm definitely lost. There's so many things I want to experience. Sometimes I just want to run away and never come back.
Me too
I wanted to became an astronomer as child, I love the space. Maybe it's related to my passion for travels! In my life I'd travel every week. Video super interesting!
Very interesting ideas to write down! Very useful!! I'm in my 20's, turned 25 recently, and I'm feeling lost more than ever, very anxious about feeling the time flies and thinking "Oh my god I'm 25 and I still don't know where to go!". Thank you
ua-cam.com/video/xbMY6TFdskU/v-deo.html
What a perfect time. I was writing a question for myself 'what I've done in a week, in a month', and your video popped up on my screen.. Thank you, Aileen for always giving us inspiration in bettering our lives.
I often long to go back and be my 17-year-old self, before I started to learn that people in the world aren't as loving as I expected them to be. I didn't have inhibitions or negative thoughts, or doubt; I just went after what I wanted. I would learn the steps to get to my goal, and the steps would look more like fun than work. I would often look at all of the things that I COULD do and very rarely believed that I couldn't (I couldn't see why not). And I accepted my flaws and would do my best, and be proud of myself, even when I wasn't perfect. Now I find myself searching and searching for my purpose; especially after I loved someone so much, knowing that I wasn't able to make them happy. And then battling OCD, and all of this uncertainty after getting laid off. Some days I am glad that I don't need to be somewhere, and other days I wish I had something to work towards during my day (I get up, do some cleaning, apply for jobs (afraid of ending up in a work environment), and then what? I had the goal of completing an art piece, but then sometimes I stall and search for something to push me forward. So there I sit, grieving over losses, feeling lost, and knowing that I can't feel sorry for myself because I know that I am not the only one going through stuff.
Thanks. I'm feeling too lost and had this down side, depression followed by suicidal thoughts. Thats why i started therapy. But is not easy...
Is a very hard thing to do, not impossible. But for those used to rush and control and plan... This year has been very stressing.
To stop and enjoy the present moment is not the easiest thing
Totally on point video in this season. Just right.
Follow your curiosity is brilliant. My strong passions are always changing over the years.
have u learnt mind reading or what!!!!?? HOW DID U KNOW!?😭 this is just right in time. Ty so much Aileen ilysm❤️

You don’t have to be first
You can just be better
You can just be different
You can just be YOU
I've been overthinking a lot about why I feel lost and where to go, it felt like there wasn't an answer and I didn't know how to deal with it. Then this video popped up in my recommendations and this has probably been the closest I could get to to figuring out why I feel like that. I really love that you reminded us to be gentle with ourselves when asking more deep and difficult questions. Thanks so much for making videos like this Aileen!
This will be my journal prompts of today ❤️ Thank you for being such an inspiration and motivation for all of us
Yessssss
Same 🙌
Me too

I'm living over 500km from my family and studying medicine, and today I had such a big mental breakdown that I had been crying for 3 hours nonstop. I haven't done anything that I have planned earlier and I was so angry with myself. At the same time, I didn't know what should I start with so I did nothing today.
Then this video popped up in my recommendations and I just want to say that your voice is so calming and this video helped me a little bit with anxiety, so thank you for your hard work
Thank you for this video. I do think. However, that "do I just need a break?" Is the very first question you need to ask yourself....or, better yet, dont ask, just take one. I've been in this place more times than I can count, and my first course of action is Always, to take a pause, even if it's just a day or two...just stop back and stop trying to Do, and give myself permission to just Be. So many insights can come from just stopping for a moment. ❤
Lavendaire - your videos are so inspiring. I love your energy, the content and how you present your videos. Who else feels the same? 🙌🏼❤️
Feeling lost in life is completely normal, especially with the huge shift and transition that we are all going through this year. Something that I read recently said - there are 2 types of life purposes:
#1 is your inner purpose: simply put, your inner purpose is to awaken, understand yourself on a deeper level and learn to love yourself unconditionally.
#2 is your outer purpose: this is how we make sure that what we are doing on an outer level aligns with our inner purpose highlighting our ability to help others, while earning a living & creating our dream life.
This info was really helpful to me, as I was diving deep into my inner purpose this year and while this was going on, I started to realized that my outer purpose was no longer aligned with me. I am now making shifts to change my outer purpose to align with my goals. And Lanvendaire is right, it may seem overwhelming and hard at first, but trust that everything that is happening, is happening for a reason and working out best case scenario - even if it does not feel like it right now.
Amazing video & great questions that we can ask. "As above, so below."
Wishing everyone an amazing day ❤️
Thank you for posing these questions. I'll be 22 next month and I've had at least 3 mental breakdowns this past year about my life and not having any clear direction on what I want to do. The violent nature of capitalism is the immense pressure to have your life figured out already because you have to pay to exist comfortably. Everything you need to survive has been monetized. So, you're left feeling like "If I don't have my life together so that I'm making enough money to survive, I'm a failure and I'm failing at life." That's what I've been battling. But, after watching this video, I got universal confirmation that I need to remove that mental and external pressure from myself in order to let love and spontaneity enter into my life now. Getting back to my roots of childhood carelessness so that I can once again enjoy the journey of life rather than trying to force finish lines for the outside world to approve of. Thank you again.
I don't know if you know this or not.your a life changer. U help so many people to overcome stress I was in depression for ten months your a angel who saved me.u will definitely success in life cus u deserve it.
I also have the mindset that it's okay to now have everything figured out, but there are times when my mind would say "okay I'm lost, now what?" I guess I'm just trying to find something to ground myself, and being lost is like floating through life.
It's especially hard to do things with the pandemic going on, and sometimes I would shame myself because It's been a long time and I haven't fully "adjusted"
I really appreciate this video because it served as a refresher and in a way, provided the grounding that I needed ❤️
I think we all go through these periods multiple times in life, even when we've actually found our path. I figured out I want to be a teacher but I still have moments when I'm like: Do I really? So yeah.. haha

I’m only in middle school, but this video has really helped me! I wanted to become good at drawing, but then it started to get boring, it was too simple of a goal for me and I wasn’t sure what to do. I became lost because it was just like..”so this is it? All I want to do is become good at drawing?” But this video has helped me look into different ways of art instead of just drawing. I feel less lost and now I know what I can do!
I agree. Getting lost a little bit can be a blessing.
✨🎊Happy Diwali to Aileen and everyone in this amazing community!!! 🥳🎉May this Diwali bring light and hope in your life. ✨May you illuminate from your present state💖
Lots of love from India😊!!
I've done this exercise twice previously and I'm about to do it again. I just want to take a moment to show some gratitude. I'm really grateful and thankful that you created this video. A big step I took last year was fuelled by following my curiosity, that small spark I had and its led me on a beautiful journey that I wouldn't change for the world. Thank you
This video came exactly at the right time! This week and this entire month I was really struggling and feeling lost. Thank you so much for this video!
Many times as a female especially now that I'm 30 who only finished an associate's degree and is single, I feel like I haven't achieved enough or done enough or established enough. And now that I'm in a different state for a fresh start I've been feeling that again for the last 2yrs. But looking back, I did achieve things when I was a teaching assistant and helping children grow and elevate them to another level in their schooling and lives. I was stressed and burned out but I did accomplish something whether I see the results or not. Now being here in a boring job, I gotta not stress and see what path to take again. I already established fundamentals in my friend's kids while I temporarily stayed with them. And going off on your own for adventure is so true. I did that on a family cruise and had more edification doing my own thing on the different islands than I would've staying with the group. So now I'll see the next step in my life and try to learn to enjoy the journey and process as it comes.
I was in quarantine for the last week and had to be out of work and home alone. I basically sat at home depressed and bored all week and I wish i took the time to do some soul searching or self betterment. oh well, it doesn’t have to take being out of work to be able to work on myself! here’s to growth 🥂
“Do I just need a break?” I needed to hear that Aileen. Thank you. What a great video ❤️💜
You make me feel inspire to change my life regardless of the fact that I'm not brave enough to do it
I literally just told my husband "I feel lost"... You're a blessing!
I'm at home, sick with covid and I have PTO for another 5 days. I thought this would be a good time for rest and introspective work... This video really helps! Thank you.
Last year I was lost but when I watched your video it really helped me rethink my path in life which what happened this year again I'm lost but all thanks to you I might not be for a long time your video is so comforting thanks for the effort❤❤❤
Hello Aileen, I just discovered your amazing channel. You have so much insight and wisdom. Thank you for sharing your journey. I am exactly lost, nor that I am a lost cause LOL but lost in my career journey. I am in my early 50's and finally trying to rediscover my true calling in life. The question about "what did I want to do as a child' brought me to tears because it was a reminder that connecting with people and seeing people succeed is what brings me joy. Keep inspiring people, you sure inspired me. Hugs
I lost my life lately and feel sad all the time. I found this video and this video gave me hope!! I’ll rewatch and write it down. Thank you 😭💞
Thank you so much.. you made my day... you save my life... thank you I don't have friends so I don't talk with someone to give me these positive words
☁️✨🥺
❤
This video and your channel has been so helpful for me and has really given me hope. God bless you thank you
I'm 21 and I'm already feeling lost in my life, I'm only a Senior High School graduate and I tend to compare my self to my previous classmates who has the privilege on going to college.
I'm quite a shame of myself since they are almost graduating to college and yet I haven't started.
After I graduate I was restlessly looking for a job and thank God I didn't. However I don't want to be stuck at my job that I don't even know if I like.
I badly want to stop thinking lost and negativity in my life. Thank God I stumbled upon this channel 😭😭😭
Hai Aileen I just want to tell you that you changed my life. I am super grateful to God for letting me know your channel
I am so so happy to be hearing this right now. Thank you. I love you and your wisdom to share this. Muahhhhhhhhhh
Thank you so much for this inspiring video . I'm in the period of my life where I'm feeling lost regarding my future carrer. You've given me a huge hope .
After watching your video about what to do if your feelings lost I just pick up my diary and write everything what I want to know and what I want to do thank u so much
This video came at the perfect time. I’ve been feeling so lost and really not seeing the point in life. I feel like as soon as I find my path I lose it. I really related to everything you said in this video and although the questions help I think the biggest take away for me was “Every moment is beautiful.” I have to remind myself a lot that life moves in seasons. Seasons of exploration, happiness, wonder, sadness or grief. There is a time for everything and nothing lasts forever. With the pandemic I’m feeling like my options are a little less open and I’m not as free as I was before but there is beauty in that too. How many times was I too busy to have Netflix days, or wishing I could just lay in bed all day as I run out the door. But I do want to push myself more I’m just at a place where I don’t know if I still have the effort to try. Thanks for your video though, it really does help. ❤️
The part that really resonated with me is when Aileen said that when you are feeling lost, it is the time to explore and try new things. I'm in my early twenties and I'm not sure where I want to go in life just yet. I feel like I have so many interests, but I am also being quite hard on myself to know exactly what I want to do. When Aileen said this, it was like a woah moment for me. Instantly my brain was like 'wait what, it's okay to just try new things for the sake of seeing where life takes me????'! what a breath of fresh air! I've been wanting to start a UA-cam channel, a blog, a store, and travel around the US in a tiny van...I think Imma start that and see where it goes! Thank you so much Aileen!! Much Love
The fact that I can get a little help from UA-cam is very helpful. Thanks for helping us. ❤️❤️
i just wanna say thank you for this, because i was in the middle of a depressive episode and i was having trouble coming out of it, but this helped me kinda challenge those negative thoughts, so i appreciate it
One of the best things that happened to me last month (26th of October), youtube algorithm recommended one of Lavendaire's video and I watched it. It hasn't been one month but I saw how my perspectives changed positively. Personally, I have no person in my life which I can openly talk or taught me things about personal growth and lifestyle design and I am so happy and grateful for this channel. THANK YOU A LOT, AILEEN!! All the love from Philippines ♡
Edited: This video resonated to me so much since I just graduated 2 months ago and I srsly don't know where to go from here. I've been feeling like I'm not making any progress since I kept receiving NOs from jobs I applied for. But I know if I keep being persistent, I'll be able to land a job soon. And here I am enjoying or being excited about life since I don't have anything figured out. OPPORTUNITIES ARE OUT THERE. I JUST GOTTA KEEP LOOKING!!
It's easy to "feel good about being lost" when you know your path, already built something amazing and have financial security.Wonder if she had crushing student debt or was in financial trouble while feeling lost. Regardless, this is a great exercise and people should be more okay and open when lost - just think there could be some extra add on questions like "what can I afford?" and "doesn't this fit into the structure I've already built?"
I love the darker look on you 😍 the „Hermione look“ is definitely working.
I love Hermione
My inspiration is Lavendaire and "girl and the world".
I'm lost right now covit has put me in fear of.....
What if .....your videos are helping me see
At the age of 17, I'm felt so lost and afraid where should I go. I felt so exhausted trying to get out from my comfort zone and it just gave me pain. Because i just push myself too hard. Now, I'm the middle of healing. All the past pain and all the negative memories I have before. I knew it just a step to move forward I'm still not there but, I'm getting there.
I think a lot of people are feeling very lost because of all of the craziness going on in the world. I'm looking for a career change because my industry is completely thrown off due to covid and it's lasting effects. Great timing for this video :)
Now I am lost and I found your video, I feel blessed. Thanks for making this video
*2:20** - **3:08* *MY LIFE, IN A NUTSHELL,* I wanted to be an astronaut, now I feel like I don't want to become one, but space always excites me, exploring the unknown always excites me, and now I want to travel the world and explore it.*
1. What did I want to do as a child? And what about that life excited me?
2. What I'm curious about? Make a lisf. How I can take small step in that direction.
3. Who do I admire and why? People you wanna be like.
4. What life skills I wish I had?
Finish the sentence: I wish I knew how to ...
5. In what ways I have been settling in life?
6. Do I just need a break?
Your vibe is simply awesome..no matter what it always make me feel so good ❤️
Keep up the work!!
Very calming and inspiring video ever. You’re one of the reason why I’ve grown personally and to strive for more. Thank you💕
Omg 😱 I love you and your name Everything I need in life without you nothing will work for me because I have no friends 😊 you make me happy so much keep up the good work 😊
Can you do one how to make friends?
I sometimes feel lost because there are many things in my mind that I want to do and it makes me feel anxious or stressed. I know that I am not as lost as I was two years ago but yeah, that’s how I feel. However, I am trying to be consistent and committed in my thoughts and ideas, and this video is very helpful. In fact, I just realized that I kind of get to know myself more when I watch your videos and ask your questions so thank you so much
It was very helpful for me
Thank you for sharing with us ❤
I love your video so much from Iran 🇮🇷
Every time I see them I feel motivated and happy 😍❤🤗
Thanks beautiful soul! Always great advice. A very wise man once said that he was asked the question....Would you rather live in a mansion and have the most expensive things in life and be treated as if you were royalty all the days of your life OR would you want to travel? He replied....there is only 1 answer to that and it would be travel..everywhere and anywhere...because it is only in those moments that you will seek and you will find out who you really are and it is only then that growth in your life will take place. It will be the time when your mind,body and spirit will have the answers. Try it. You will understand. I absolutely loved that! I wanted to share it with all of you beautiful people out there. Have a great day. 🤩😍😊🤗😷💟
This video came at a perfect time a co worker of mine was suggesting that I look into being a therapist and I feel curious about it but I was going back and forth with myself on if I'd want to or not and my best actually said "why don't you take a small online course and get a certification to see how you like it?" Point is I can't wait to experience the value of these questions after answering them. Thank you Alieen so much for what you do! ❤❤❤
How you are always so positive about everything
..
Much needed it was. Thank you.
Only channel where i find comments which has a para...and i love this fact that we really connect to u love u lots aileen
I love your hair color and the wave! It suits every lipstick color in my opinion. The curiosity is a good tip for me because I really don’t like anything at all, and that makes me feel stressed because I can’t plan if there’s no vision. But whenever there are video about painting or calligraphy, it makes me wanna do it but it’s just hard but if it’s really what I wanna do then maybe I shouldn’t give up on it even if it’s just a hobby.
The advice about curiosity was super helpful. Most videos or articles about feeling lost jump straight to "finding your passion," but I never could figure out how to get there. Thank you :)
The hairstyle suits you so well 🥰
I always feel so energized when i look upto your videos. And your videos has always helped me in my life almost in every situation. Thank you for helping me and other people all over the world. I love you so much 🥰❤️ sending lots of love from India ✨
Feeling lost or any other challenging emotion or situation is the first step that I'm on to finding the answer or outcome to something important to me leading to clarity. I loved this video Aileen resonates with me 🐾🐾
Thanks for this video!! ❤️
I realized some months ago, that I often feel lost when I can't see where I came from anymore. When I feel like my success isn't something great anymore because "I need to set new goals now". I'm really learning to compliment myself more often and show myself love for all the things I do. And when I do this I feel less lost or not lost at all anymore 😊
