    Hii, usually I am a silent viewer but I wanted to break my silence and tell you how much I love your videos. You have such a chill, nice and wholesome presence and I just love listening to you and what you have to say. Keep going, you got this ❤

    Girl, I knew you were going through it! I was watching you VLOG and could see it all adding up with your breakup, your job, and the apartment....Long story short, you DON'T OWE strangers on the internet an explanation. I think women are taught to endure and stay strong. Myself as a woman of color I'm supposed to be "magical" 🙄 . Girl, you deserve rest, peace, relaxation and whatever you need. If you need to fall apart and throw yourself a pity party, DO IT! Have streams, banners, all that at your pity party. Breaking up after a long relationship is hard AF. I'm sure there are parts we don't see (smart because no one should know everything about your life). Anyways, after the pity party pack it all away and when your ready grow from it. I am so proud of you! I have 10 years on you and am finally living the life that I want ♥ It might not be going exactly as planned but you are doing it. I saw your vlog when you were at bad cinderella and said this is exactly how I imagined and I literally was like "yassss, sis!" You are truly an inspiring young lady. All of us on UA-cam are cheering for you ♥ ♥

    I just found you not too long ago through your monetization video and I saw the vlog before this and it was genuinely comforting how you were going through a funk and seeing you like get it together and get through the funk. It’s comforting becuase I’ve been in a funk the past 3 days and it was motivating and inspiring seeing you just get through it. Thank you for showing this little bits and parts ❤️❤️❤️

    Alexis, I discovered your channel a few days ago and I've been binging!! You're my new favourite. You're such a breath of fresh air. I'm sorry you had to go through all that stuff, sometimes life really throws everything at once! Glad you're feeling better, and remember All Things Must Pass. Much love.

    In the same boat and trying to figure out direction…. Just before this video I watched another influencer and I was like this girl is always so happy and it seems to me like her only stress is if her skin is breaking out and she needs to take more vitamins into my self. I thought don’t any of these girls think that it’s OK to share when you’re having a weak moment and what normal people go through and hear your video comes and I was like wow I really needed to hear that. I know that I’m not the only one that struggles but kudos to you for putting it out there to inspire others to do the same thing.

    Would like to add..
    Sometimes when I’m feeling overwhelmed or stressed, I declutter.
    Get rid of things that I don’t use or need.
    I would probably get rid of the table and stools by your front door and move Bennetts treehouse thing there…
    Sometimes less is more ♥️♥️♥️

    Weirdly to me you seem to be really together lately. Not saying you weren’t before but you seem to be so much more positive and focused. It’s all about you and finding your way and it’s really interesting to follow you. I really enjoy your vlogs, they are relatable and real, they give me ideas for my own messy 😆 life. So thank you 😘 keep going!

    You nailed it. Just when you feel completely unsettled and overwhelmed, something amazing happens and it's just around the corner. I just had this same thing happen over the last two weeks. I ended up redoing my studio space and making another big decision. Today feels like everything is exactly how it is supposed to be. I'm sure you will be sharing your own changes soon as well.

    I like using the Focus Keeper app for time management. It’s a timer that will build in breaks and can help you track how long you’re working. It’s called the pomodoro method. You work for 20 min, break for 5 min, then work 20, break, etc. and it can build in a longer break after a few cycles.

    I love your vlog! I really enjoy watching your life and your style.
    I wonder if you should ask yourself a couple of questions.....do you overcommit yourself so that you can't meet the deadline you set? You want to please people so you say you can get it to them in 2 hours. But if it really takes 4 it's ok to say that, and then get it to them early. You're a people pleaser. Will take time and some uncomfortable-ness to work through that and allow yourself to give a more realistic timeline without beating yourself up. The other thing is do you say yes when you want to say no. Takes a lot of hard work to be able to say No thank you. But I guarantee you it's so freeing to be able to say no. I've walked both these roads.
    Anyway, I really enjoy you. Keep moving forward and be well!

    Fabulous video and so grateful you are sharing about this... what a beautiful video. GREAT editing ! I have a friend who owns the Vale House on the Upper West side and I think one day you would be great performing your songs there one day :) Your channel is gorgeous ! This Vlog reminds me of this song called "Unwritten".... all about being in a new place... could be a great audition song.

    Hi everyone.. enjoy the Memorial Day Weekend.. the unofficial start of summer.. doing a reset is a good idea. We love you Alexis.. you will get thru it. Life can be unmotivated at times, but you always gotta seek and focus on you're passions no matter what. Stay focus, definitely rest to recharge is highly important and much needed. Sorry for the long tangent, but I just love this UA-cam channel.. very very much, and I wish the best to Alexis for the rest of this year 2023 😇🙏

    wow. exactly what i needed! i went through something similar where a lot of things happened to me that were out of my control, and now i have to completely readjust my life to a whole new reality.
    my new reality also includes figuring out how to work from home and keep myself organized and accountable, so not only was this inspiring, but i think i'm actually going to take similar steps to fix it! i definitely need just an entire day or weekend to myself to reorganize.
    i absolutely cant wait to see your new notion! i've been falling off track with using mine consistently so i'd love to see how you've made your planning more practical in that way!
    thank you so so so much for continuing to be great company and a great inspiration, i hope this reset continues to help you out of your funk! i look forward to the day when we're both doing so much better ⭐

    It really sounds like you’re just in a rut… I find when I’m in similar feelings, I set small goals for myself…. Wake up at so and so time, put all my clothes and shoes away right away.. then build on them, and pretty soon you have a new routine.

    Hi Alexis.
    You did get thru alot lately and I'm glad you can talk about it. Because that is first step to healing 👍. I think you dealing good with this and going with the changes instead taking it "under the rug". Congrats on that.
    I cliking on your videos because I like watching your dealing with life thing.
    Yes, this also shall pass. I think this is one (of many) good ways living life. Being aware of that is important.
    Some my advices on life is be present, don't stuck in past, memories do fades, learn from life experiences and involve them in your life (people tend to throw that life treasure and I don't get that), be POSITIVE and don't have regrets on something you did (because many times in life in that moments we didn't know better).
    This is supporting comment. I'm don't often leave a comment.
    Sending your way positive vibes Alexis 😊 and hug 🤗.
    Take care and God bless.
    And wish you the best in life Alexis ( and to everybody who reading this).
    See you in next video 😀.

    @rationalMexican Рік тому +2

    I've come to a conclusion about getting "organized", and using systems for productivity (I'm not the only one nor the first, by far): these are just fancy ways to procrastinate. You feel good about writing down your goals on an app or website, and never actually get to the execution. If you need to write something down to remind yourself it's important, that pretty much means it isn't.
    It has helped me a lot to just pick two or three things going around my head and actually *do* them. Also, quit social media. (Don't quit UA-cam tho, we need you!)
