One lesson I have learned in my 46 years is that I don't have to follow anyone's path. I can follow my own path even though it looks different.
Yes!! I love this.
My biggest lesson is "just keep breathing. As long as you are breathing things can get better."
This was 'given' to me after a suicide attempt. It's good advice that has kept me from trying again. 🙂
Toni Myers you are so strong :)
Thank you for telling us your lesson Toni 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼 thank you so much
Toni Myers thanks for sharing Toni(: you made me smile 😊
My biggest lesson was to realise I wasn't the person that I am. It was about learn about myself. In my early 20s I fell into depression and it took me 4 years to climb out of it with no help. But since it was such a long period with no one but me, not even my family I live very far from them, just me and my own thoughts - it enabled me to think, to really think. During this period I lost interest in everything I used to like doing before, everyone once around me got left behind, I was completely alone, me and my work hours, day after day. When I wasn't in the office I would be sleeping, or drinking alcohol, or eating .. I've gained so much weight. And when I started coming out on the other end I realised I don't know who I am. And that was the best feeling I have ever had! I was a blank page, I was allowed to become whoever I wanted to be! I was ready to become who I always were supposed to be! I've questioned everything, I used to like before, I remembered and knew I liked those stuff, but picking it up again I actually had to stop and experience it again and decide "is this something I like or not?" I realised I was living someone else's life before my depression, I was living according to what was expected from me, I was being a good daughter, an excellent student, I've worked hard and landed a good job, I was following my hobbies and grew thousands of followers online, I was going out with friends, I was clothes shopping and dressing well, I was dating, I was doing what society thinks I should be doing and what my family expected of me, and these somehow became what I expected of myself too. Then the depression happened. Going through my 4 years of depression in that sort of sterile environment with no one to steer me to the wrong direction, I come out on the other end as someone who was no longer that person - this was the best thing that ever happened to me. I'm happier than ever, I'm true to myself. I've picked up new habits, new favourites, new passions that fill my soul, I went travelling alone and discovered other countries, talked to complete strangers sharing our dreams and goals and never see them again, I have new priorities, I realised I didn't like the clothes I was wearing so I threw out everything and reestablished my style according to what I actually like, not what I'm expected to wear. I've moved, changed my job, I love my job now! I've buzzed my hair down just to try if this new me is the kind of person who would like that kind of hair. It wasn't so I grew it back. Free for experimentation! I came out of depression 2 years ago. I've turned 29 today, and frankly I love my life, and I love the person who I became and who I'm still becoming. I'm proud of this person, she is slaying it. This was my biggest lesson - to realise as I became an adult - the importance of letting go of everything and learning about yourself. Questioning everything you thought was real to you, dare to question it don't just sink into the convenience. Rediscovering, and staying curious. Daring to let go, being brave enough to introduce the new, keep learning every day. I think that's what the 20s should be about. That's how you are becoming an adult.
WOW! I 100% agree with you. I feel into a depression and anxious state for 2 years because I became the person that everyone labeled me as. I was insecure and weak minded. I took some time alone with no friends and worked on my self. Now Im 20, love my life happier than ever doing 100% me. In fact I feaking love going aginst what society thinks is the "norm". Dare to be different, its amazing. Life gets so much better when you live for yourself and not others. Like you I'm honestly glad for my depression and anxiety because it taught me how to be happy and love life again!

This video was very helpful after 10 years of marriage and 3 kids going thru a separation is to me devastating it’s so hard to face my new reality my heart aches for my kids and myself and watching this made me feel a little better, thank you 🙏🥰
Liliana Diaz Really glad this helped a bit Liliana-that’s not easy to go through. It will definitely all work out in the end ❤️ xx
Don't give up.
My baby girl reminds me of this every day 💕 I ended up having her alone and it was the best decision of my life.
"This shall pass because change is inevitable" I cried listening to that cuz positive change is what I want and I really want what I'm going through to pass. And iv been trying to for quiet some time. Taking iniative as u said but even though one needs patience its really hard. But thank you for this video ❤
Meghan the fact that you are 28 gives me so much hope and because I am 21 and I'm so anxious about why I'm not at where most women I admire yet. Again, I really like your channel and like you as a person too(you are like a big sister online to me since I don't have any siblings). You radiate a genuine energy and that's what I really appreciate! Sending my appreciation to you! ❤️
And I was wondering if you would know the solution to a problem that I've been having. I'm currently suffering from vertigo and it feels quite bad. I never thought it would suddenly come back because it was an old problem of mine in my teens. Do you have any remedy to cure vertigo? 🙏🏻
Red Bean my mom has it from time to time and there’s no cure for vertigo. I already asked and the doctors don’t really know the cause for it either.
I guess you still need to be healthy though, by saying that you need to eat healthier and excise often. I’m sure that can somehow help you :)
Hey there!! Thank you so much :) And really interesting you mention vertigo -- I've had it pretty badly twice since the summer and I found the vertigo head motion exercises that I've found online made it go away. But of course check with your doctor if it's really persisting! xoxo
Red Bean I also suffer from vertigo. I would ask your doctor to refer you to a specialist and ask about physical therapy.
You share a lot of wisdom for your age. Thank you for sharing.
My life lesson is .. always appreciate a good effort... so I m appreciating you. 🙂
Asifah Sohail so cute
How beautifully she explained everything what I couldn’t put into words .experienced everything in detail that she shared here.thank u 🥰
Fears are just thoughts!! Still learning this one!
No one knows what's right for u like u do!!!! I like!!!
If it doesnt fit dont force it lol yepp
Yess gratitude is everything!
Practice willpowerrrr! Yesss strengthen that muscle!!
Dreams might come true after a long time of waiting and when you're ready for it :)
Try new things! Get out of your comfy zone! So hard but it's the best thing to do!
This is a lovely video Meghan! It is so peaceful to listen to you, and there's so much wise in everything you say. I enjoy and learn a lot from your videos, and somehow each time I watch them I end up with this feeling that "everything's fine, everything's going to be fine". You transmit that. And for someone who deals everyday with anxiety like I do, feeling that is not easy as we tend to worry constantly and way too much. Thanks Meg for your videos, for your peace, for your advise, for the knowledge and wise you share with us. Happy New year of life for you!!! Hugs xxx
Hi Carolina. I absolutely know how all-consuming anxiety is. Really glad you enjoyed this video xx

Happy belated birthday! I am also a January birthday but more than double your 28 years! 😄 Good for you to be so wise at your age! It took me a lot longer to figure all that out, but I completely agree with your 28 comments. Be happy; it’s worth it (this has been my mantra for 10 happy years).
Great video Meghan! Thank you so much. And all of it true to my own life experience. I always find it very comforting to know that the areas you talk about are common to all of us and it makes some of the difficult stuff much easier to deal with! And for the good things sharing multiplies the happiness!
I have a really hard time right now. I love to listen to you Meghan...always so positive. Maybe one of your best videos.

Sorry watching lots of older videos. Just found your channel and loving it! I’ve learned that the environment is each of our responsibilities and we can take very small steps to reduce our impact. We just need to start

But since I just began watching your videos, I've been able to regain my inner peace and joy.
