If you ever set yourself "on fire" again to not disappoint the patrons I will cross the damn ocean by foot and dropkick you into the nearest pool. You're good. We love your content. I haven't personally spent that much time with you yet, but wanting to do so more often speaks enough about how much I like you as a person and friend. I miss gaming or hanging out with you. Don't burn yourself out trying to meet deadlines nobody but yourself expects from you. If the episodes keep being as good as they are, they're worth the wait. Also, don't come at me with "you're spending money on this" as an argument, I know that my financial decisions are horrible and I stand by that. Supporting cool people that make good content is worth the money. Speaking of which, I might be able to upgrade my tier soon lmao
*Look* . . . . like I said, being dependable and a woman of my word matters immensely to me. I set an expectation and then failed to meet it. *I'm* not okay with that for myself. But I promise I am very much trying to learn how to be kinder and gentler with myself and give myself more grace. It's a work in progress, but there is (at least an attempt at) progress being made.
@@LightforgedASMR I know, and I kind of get that. I'm not saying you're not allowed to set deadlines or perimeters for yourself to try and meet. What I'm saying is I'm not gonna let you beat yourself up over meeting them. I can and will sic Katie on you I have to or I'll just have Kenny corn-step and get you out of that mindset lmao Love you and your content a lot. Keep being wonderful, don't be too hard on yourself. I'm glad you're working towards making your work ethic for your personal stuff a healthier one. Hope to see it work out in the future
sending you the best vibes, light. you work so hard and do so much, even if it doesn't feel like that all the time ❤ being perfect isn't expected, you're human, and that's ok. you're doing so much and it's crazy in the best way, it's hard, but you deserve to hear it.
And that's exactly the truth of it - it's so much easier to extend that grace to others. It's just a matter of figuring out how to feel like I have a right to take it for myself, too.
@@LightforgedASMR i’m certainly not always good at it when it comes to myself. Sometimes I have a habit of beating myself up if I don’t do some thing that I was planning to do or if I do some thing that maybe wasn’t the smartest thing I could’ve done, lol.
Thank you. There absolutely will be the video Saturday, and then back on the Wednesday/Saturday schedule next week. This week just got a lot more wild than I was ready for. Perhaps the delayed flight should have been seen as an omen.
Don't be too hard on yourself. I know its easier said than done but yes, you're human & you have a personal life. You need & deserve to take some time for yourself, its really important. I actually respect and support you for taking some time off. Take care and don't burn yourself out. Also 👀 yandere... 😌 Interesting!
Thank you. Trying to learn to take time for myself is something I'm honestly trying to get better about. I *don't* want to burn out. This channel and the story I'm telling are both massively important to me, and I want to keep going for a long time, if I'm being honest about it. I can't do that if I burn out. And yes, yandere! I think it's gonna be a fun time. ;-)
I love your channel, your content, and your world. I, like a bunch of others, have decided that you and all the things you bring to this medium are well-worth our time and money. I'm so sorry that things are going a little too busily for you, but you are worth the wait. Your story is worth the wait. Whatever that wait is, that's fine. Please don't burn out so early in what's promising to be a brilliant career as an ASMRtist. I'm not saying to drop your incredibly high standards. I'm saying to be realistic. You're awesome, and we'll be here for whatever comes next.
You are amazing, the fact that you have both your life and your doing UA-cam is an amazing feet. I hope you are doing this because you enjoy it and I hope you don’t feel pressured to put out content for the sake of it. The quality of what you produce is far and beyond some of the best stuff here and I’m honestly surprised you don’t have more subs (a hidden gem beyond doubt) Don’t burn out, make sure your are 100%, life first and have a wonderful day!
This channel started as a passion project, and it's one I feel *deeply* about. To know that so many people (~2000 isn't a lot to UA-cam, but it's a lot to me!) feel the same is so moving I can't adequately express how grateful I am for it. I'm also deeply touched every time someone tells me they're surprised I don't have more subs. I already have so many more than I ever expected to; I thought I'd maybe have 100 by the time I hit February, and then never dared dream I'd reach 1k. That I have almost twice *that* is just wild to me, and I don't take it for granted. I also don't *want* to burn out. This channel and this *story* are deeply important to me. And if I burn out, then I won't be able to continue this, and that's the farthest thing from what I want.
We love and support you. You have a life we understand entirely. Please be safe and take your health and mental health seriously, it's hard to put yourself first sometimes. ❤️❤️❤️
It is hard sometimes, especially when I really am so grateful to each and every one of you and don't want any of you to feel like your expectations aren't being met. I'm working on it, though, I promise.
Your passion your drive your creativity and genius are the very reasons I am glad I subbed to your channel Light forged. You told me that you have many stories to tell and I look forward to listening to them. You have done great things with your channel and I know you will do many more great things. How do I know? Your audios is proof of your determination. I said this to you ever since I found your channel by accident and listening to Len's first audio I knew I found something great and I was right. I want to say to you my friend is this.....thank you for all that you do and I truly appreciate the effort you put in because you are a nice person and love that creative spark of yours.
Thank you so much. It's just really hard to give myself the grace I need to some days, even when I'm the first person to remind others (and especially other creative types) that giving yourself that isn't just important: it's necessary. I'm working on it. And I absolutely do have more stories to share! I'm really excited for the two new girls I talked about, and all of the current girls are also on the forefront of stories I'm hyped for. As I said in the video, the channel and the story are both massively important to me, and I have no plans to stop either. :-)
I feel like I’ve always known you, continue the good work we all agree to say that you are un replaceable but you have a life to live like all of us so don’t be hard on yourself.
Thank you. Truly. I'm working on not being so hard on myself (and my friends all yell at me for it, too lol), but I think being open about what was going on was important.
I am so sorry you're going through that right now. I've lost several loved ones to cancer, and it's always so hard to watch happen. I hope you're able to find some peace and to enjoy the time you do have left with your uncle (if he's still well enough, I'd suggest recording him telling family stories or write down any recipes only he knows).
Thanks. I'm working on getting myself back on schedule, though. Things just got really *really* sideways in ways I thought I could get ahead of and then *couldn't* because I've never had a UA-cam channel before and wasn't prepared for all of the work it takes. That's on me and it won't happen again.

It’s all ok. Take the time you need to get all what you need to get done. I can wait as long as I can.

@@LightforgedASMR indeed, I wonder can I join your discord?
Absolutely! It's an 18+, SFW space - the link is in the description of every video. :-)
@@LightforgedASMR excellent, and remember do what you like when you like because life is short my uncle is dying from cancer right now
I am so sorry you're going through that right now. I've lost several loved ones to cancer, and it's always so hard to watch happen. I hope you're able to find some peace and to enjoy the time you do have left with your uncle (if he's still well enough, I'd suggest recording him telling family stories or write down any recipes only he knows).
It's okay life a bitch
