I love the fact that you’re real with us and don’t just show the good times. In a couple videos ago when you had a bad day and were crying for hours, I was in the same boat on that day. It really helped me feel normal and like I’m not alone, so thank you for putting yourself out there! You’re making me want to start my own channel except I just WFH so I feel like I have nothing noteworthy to show lol. But then again I’m like shouldn’t I be living a noteworthy life? Annnnnyways, thank you and sending much love! ❤
A lot of influencers technically WFH. Don’t let that stop you from making a channel! You never know what it is about your life that someone else resonates with
I love the attention to the little details in this vlog, Carter! So, so good
You're so welcome! xo
I love how real you are ♥️ thank you for continuously making me feel like I am not alone
You are my favorite! Spring is right around the corner and this fresh start mindset is just what I needed. Much love Carter! 💘
Yay!!! Another spring reset/refresh vlog is also coming on the first day of Spring next week 🤭💐💕
You are beautiful !! :) It is refreshing to see you being so authentic in regards to your bad body image days - reminds me everyone struggles with this. Sending positive vibes your way!
Thank you so much!!
so thankful for your videos ❤

I keep wanting to try the hu choc but the price lol the hazelnut one i think catches my eye 😂
Yea thats why I only buy it when I have points to redeem cause its pricey😂
thank you for sharing the struggles with mental health because I can relate to it so much
absolutely loving your hair!! ❤
Thank you!!
Loved this video and you being real and honest 🥰
Yay so glad!!

Thank you!!
You are beautiful with or without acne! Don’t let that tear you down it’s just a phase. I need to get better about putting my phone away in the evenings thank you for the reminder ❤ have you have the best day! 😊
Thank you so much!!
Thank you for sharing your struggles with acne and mental health. I can relate so much. Your vlogs are so raw and real. You are my favorite UA-camr and I’m so grateful for you ❤
I'm so grateful for YOU♥️
I’ve been having a hard time with my skin too. I so resonate with how it can create a barrier to want to create. You are doing amazing and I can’t wait for our podcast episode to be released next week 😍
My favorite creator ❤ sending all the love … I know the feeling of just not feeling like yourself too well. I’m gonna do a fresh start with you! Thanks for the motivation 🤍
Yay let's do it!
Hugs to you! I could have cried listening to you talk about your acne. When I was in high school I had bad acne. I can remember massaging my face willing it away. That was a long time ago and besides slight rosacea my skin is good. I wanted to let you know your videos have had such a positive impact on my life. Goal setting, checking in. I'm 48 and goal setting has never been a real part of my life. So THANK YOU! I hope you feel better soon.
aaaa!! so motivational!! loved this
Wow Stella is glowing love that for her & we love you carter sending prayers to you may the spirit of heaviness leave you and be replaced with clarity, peace & perseverance 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Carter ❤ I literally love following your channel. I used to have really bad cystic acne and I went on accutane a few years ago, my skin has been clear since but it was like ten years of struggle. People don’t understand how much acne can take a toll on your mental health until they really struggle with it. Just so hard. You are so fucking beautiful dude, inside and out.
You’re beautiful Carter! ❤️
Thank you, that's so kind!
I love how real you are in your videos and how honest you are. I love how you really talk about actual struggles and how life is "picture perfect." I've been feeling so unmotivated and sluggish since the beginning of the month (March), and then I've been super sick with strep for the past week. And that's been a major mental battle because I feel so lazy not doing anything but I was SO sick and my brain kept telling me "you're not sick, just put on something nice that isn't pjs and you'll feel better." Meanwhile, I literally went to the doctor, and she was like, "Please take your antibiotics and just rest." Thank you for talking about acne, i feel like anyone who doesn't struggle with it will never understand. A few years ago and I horrible and painful cystic acne and I was crying every day about it. I hated showing my face, I ended up going on Accutane, but I have acne scars, and I still have blackheads and texture issues. I still cry about it a lot because I started getting acne when I was 11, and I'm 28 now. I try not to let it bother me, but it's one of those things that I always focus on for myself because I feel like no matter what I do, it will never get better. Anyway, thank you, Carter, for being a human being and reminding us of that💗
I needed a “get my life in order” Carter video today!! Thx for all you do ❤❤
YAY!!! Hopefully this helped🥰
Hi Carter good morning happy Wednesday morning and I hope you having amazing day today and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and you are amazing productive
Hey! Carter I really really love your daily vlogs so so so much you are my inspiration and I wish you reach 90K Subscribers very very soon!💫💕☺️
Thanks so much!!
Very proud of you in this vlog. 👏
Thank you so much 😁
I have GERD as well and am on a PPI for the first time. Would love to hear more about your journey with it.
I just started it less than a week ago but so far so good- so I'll keep the vlogs posted on how I feel!
It's so hard to get out of survival mode. It's such a grind era and it's a toxic mindset. I'm a new subscriber and it's good to see you trying to better yourself with healthy habits! It takes time to heal & learn how to find balance. I'm trying to do that while pregnant (second year in a row not planned lol) and it's so hard for me to balance knowing I will have 2 boys and trying to keep my mental health at bay. I definitely will be making a video like this soon and interested in the tips you have for us!
Keep up the honest content. There's not many UA-camrs on here that are authentic. You are!
I need to ready my copy of that book.
Thank you for being so transparent about what you struggle with. The book “eat right for your blood type” changed my life and help me to understand what foods are like medicine, neutral foods and what foods are like poison. I know you’ll find your way. Life just gets interesting at times . Everything will be okay 🙏🏽.
I try and view all food as neutral- nothing is bad, everything in moderation! 🥰
My favorite natural peanut butter is honestly Kirkland. They come in a two pack (it's nice for me cause I go through peanut butter fast) and the consistency isn't as runny as other natural peanut butters. Once you stir it, it doesn't keep separating. It actually stays more solidified and the taste is yummy!
I'm gonna try that one next!
Great video! Thank you ! 😊 🌸🌻🌺
Thanks for watching!
@@CarterSullivan you’re welcome! 😊
Love how heartfelt, honest and genuine you are-always. Can too also relate to the acid reflux, it's no fun. Trying to maintain it & what helped you? Miss out on eating certain foods. You are such an inspiration and and help me to be motivated. Thanks for sharing. 🤎✨️
Like I mentioned in the vlog I literally just found out that's what it is and the medication has been helping a ton so that's all I can say! It's been like 4 days so I don't have much insight yet on my GERD!
Thanks as always for being open about your acne. As someone else who also has it and struggles, it seems like no one else has it sometimes lol. I call my mom crying and she thinks it’s ridiculous how I care so much. Love you & the channel ❤
Love the thumbnail on this✨🌿
THANK YOU!!
SO excited ab this video WOW
YAY
I also have acid reflux. Mine has been a lot better lately so the prescription my doctor has me taking switched from needing to take it daily to now only needing to take it as needed. The only negative about taking it as needed is I have to limit how much coffee, other caffeine beverages, alcohol spicy foods, etc that I am consuming.
That's awesome to hear that its working for you- thats our plan too- 2 months of daily meds then switch to as needed!
I find that buying those weekly pills dividers (not sure if thats the name for them) helps me take my vitamines. You have your day of the week plus some vitamins I only take every two days. The less I need to think the better I do with my habits.
Honestly now that I'm back on the pill its so much easier to remember taking my vitamins😂
What does the Kombucha taste like? Is there texture to it?
I don't find there's a texture to kombucha- each one tastes different IMO! Some are sweet and some are sour!
@@CarterSullivan thank you, I might give it a try. 💜
There’s only texture if you make it yourself 😊
the queeen has blessed us again
ILY
I deleted TikTok and limited my screen time on social media to 30 mins a day and my mental health has never been better truly
You are so beautiful and inspirational Carter!! So happy you are in a good mood and that your nausea is starting to get better (thank you modern medicine whoo!)
Still crazy to me that people in the comments try to give u medical advice as if you don't always talk about seeing a doctor 7 having like medical anxiety (I do too, so I totally understand! WebMD is a dark place for me haha)
Love ya girl, hope this time change and new season of life gives you all the joy you deserve!
seeing a doctor & having medical anxiety****
Thank you for the kind words!!!
I have suffered from severe acne for almost 10 years now.‘I thought once I became an adult it would go away but it never did. Waiting for it to become trendy because literally everyone goes through acne and it should never be something we are insecure about
Something that really changed my mindset was realizing I don’t see other peoples acne. Like when I look at someone I see them and not their acne. It really helped free me from the negative self talk around my skin!
So true! Thanks for sharing ♥️
Hi Carter where did you get your journals? Do you have a link?
Papier sent them to me! I believe they have a ton on their website to choose from🤭
Please know that you are and look beautiful!! That’s what we(your viewers see!) Also, I have finally in the last year learnt to take my mornings slow too!! I used to be always in such a constant rush rush rush. 🤦🏼♀️
Slow mornings are KEY
Please do a video on how you stay present and more in depth how you stay off your phone! ♥️
Honestly there isn't much to it- I think we overcomplicate it as a society! Just get into the habit of not picking it up when you're watching TV or spending 1 on 1 time with loved ones! I also find having a hobby is helpful, replace phone scrolling with reading or a walk or whatever hobby you love!
@@CarterSullivan 🤍🥰🥰
I am really starting to like coming back to your space on the internet! Quick q: did you get a full blood panel about your hormones at all? Did you pcp request that at all?
Wait never mind, I kept watching! I wish you happy healing and purging
Thank you!!! We all go through different seasons of life and different creators but it means alot that you're coming back-I hope you stay!
Kirkland brand peanut butter at costco is our go to natural peanut butter. Super good price for 2 jars!
Ou I'll check it out next time we go!
You're beautiful! Love your content :)
Thank you so much!!
BEST natural peanut butter is Adam’s! Just in the normal breakfast aisle at Superstore or No Frills. Or probably other stores, lol.
Another Ontario person here and I’m feeling so impatient for Spring. But at least it’s close and we can reset to prepare 🎉🎉 Thanks for the vlog, Carter.
Ou YAY! I love when I get food recs that I can actually find in Canada😂
❤️🩹sending a virtual hug your way. Thank you for sharing. 🙏🏾
🤗
you are so beautiful inside and out - and I love you
Acne is such a hormone thing, but you will come out of it. Still, regardless Carter you are still beautiful, the inspiration you give to others is amazing. You are very aware and in tune with yourself and that is not a bad thing.
Not all acne is hormonal, sometimes its simply genetics or a side effect of medication like mine! ♥️
@@CarterSullivan yes this is true meant to say “can be such” I remember when I was on steroids for losing my right lung and oh gosh it broke me out so bad! Was horrible! Not to mention what it did to my mood. Keep smiling ☺️ That self image is so important to yourself! I know my two major sore points for me is my teeth and my toes!
You are beautiful ❤ I have a bunch of pimples right now, my baby girl just discovered my face, specially my chin 🙈
Unsollicited advice but since I was diagnosed with endometriosis, and about 90% of women with endo also have gut issues (ex: IBS), I have started to work on reducing the inflammation in my gut and my mental health is way better than before! They call the gut our "second brain" and I can see why. If you are curious, what I have done is cut gluten and dairy products. It takes a bit of adjustment but I feel so relieved and it's only the beginning.
I did mention in this video I have bad health anxiety and really try and set the boundary of no unsolicited medical advice only because you can only imagine how many messages like this I get and it can be super overwhelming 🥹 I know 99% of people mean well giving medical advice but please know I am in great hands with my doctor and taking advice from the internet is something I've set a boundary to not do and I hope you understand♥️ Personally I just eat a well balanced diet and eat gluten and dairy in moderation and it works for me! But happy you found something that works for you!
@@CarterSullivan I totally respect your decision, obviously it is your body and your health. I just would have felt "guilty" if I didn't share what worked for me because in my mind it's the "I could have potentially helped someone, but didn't say anything" kind of narrative that sets in. I will not comment this type of information again. Best of luck with finding what works best for you! ✨
I totally get that and appreciate you saying something because I know that feeling all too well. Sometimes I find it hard to set these boundaries but know I need to stand up for myself especially online✨ But I'm so glad that it's working for you! I personally tried cutting out gluten and dairy and didn't notice a difference but all our bodies are so different!
Try singing out loud with like an iPod and big headphones on it will make you feel better
HAHA YES I love doing this
Are you bipolar? Sorry if that’s personal but watching your clip after a run where you want to keep going and doing things after having a depressive episode seems like an obvious upswing and potentially a hypo manic episode?
No shame. Just reminds me of a very close family member that has BP2.
Also……under $200 for a “major” grocery haul….:jealous! That’s a weekly amount for me.
Nope, just a gal with seasonal depression. What you didn't see was the weather taking a big turn and the sun came out which is why I was so happy. I also have good ole normal depression and it's very common to feel an urge to be "mega productive" after a depressive episode but day to day do not experience mania. Remember you're just seeing a 20min video of one day in my life! 🤭 I'm very open about my mental health on here but I do think we need to be careful about giving unsolicited medical advice online because people can be very sensitive! Especially as someone who talked about my health anxiety and the boundary of not wanting comments of medical advice in this video. It's a boundary I've put in place to protect my peace and I hope you can understand. People mean well commenting things like this but it can be anxiety inducing for those of us with health anxiety♥️
@@CarterSullivan I don’t think I anywhere gave advice ❤️
Just an observation as someone who has years of experience watching this daily.
