Passion is overrated never bought into it. Growing up i had zero passions i just like doing stuff . I make it a point to live my life to the fullest and for me that includes Netflix, cinema , occasional outings and sleep(lots of sleep). Doing the things that make me happy is my passion. I am my biggest passion.
this is INCREDIBLE! I love that - cause that way you can only really be living in the present moment. Love this philosophy
@@BoboM Thank you and exactly . I try to live my life with no regrets. You should be on TV i loved you on the Grapevine panel you had such conviction and grace . You also have a striking face easy to remember hard to forgot.
Thank you so much! I’ll definitely be back on the grapevine very soon! 🌻
What’s happening to you is called waking up. Seeing things for what they are. And that can definitely be painful in many aspects of life, from love to career. Consider yourself lucky bc you’re so young! following the bliss that leads you to expanding your mind more and more is never a bad decision. You’re showing courage and inspiring others to do the same and that’s what we need right now.
I didn’t follow you in the beginning bc of the fashion brand. I followed you bc you would show others how you accomplish certain things like crafting photoshoots on a budget and putting together a brand organically. I’m exited for you!
this is so affirming - thank you so much for this! I appreciate you :)
Wow "chase your curiosity" that's such a game changer
“Adulthood is ruining me” I felt that on too many levels. I call it my “Quarter Life Crisis”
Bria Dunbar omg girl you and I both 😭😩
“Adulthood has been ruining me”- the 2018 mood.
But that just makes me so much more for what is to be built in 2019.
Brianna Wood I like this perspective! 2018 is preparing us for 2019 ✨
If I had no fear I’d quit my job, move out into my own apartment, create content for UA-cam and Instagram full time, and continue on my spiritual journey.
I love your videos girl ☺️♥️
one step at a time bb! Start now and you'll be there before you know it :)
Start now and then the transition will be easier to quit your job! Good luckk💗💗
🙌🏾
JNicole Beauty I here that! Actually I just got fired from my job and moved from NY to FL to focus on creating content. I hope the universe presents itself to you in a similar manner!!
That part where you say to pursue curiosity instead of goals was so revealing for me, because my interests are constantly changing (from a carreer perspective), and I find myself getting bored after a while. Thank you, I like the focus you're putting on your channel, keep on!
Thank you so much lovely! ❤️
If I had no fear, I’d rob a bank so I could travel the world 😂😂
umm hi so can we rob this bank together :P
Bobo M when you back here, we’ll scope banks and I’ll try arrange a getaway vehicle 😬
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
I wanna join this robbery scheme too😂
Kay Amore Too haha please forward your cv to Bobo so we may find a role suitable for your skill set 🤓
My intention is just to be happy! The PTSD with my depression has been making me very unhappy. Some people might think I'm wasting time (going to college for a job that won't pay much, trying to get a third job, playing video games), but I'm just trying to do the whole self care thing while also living a "stable" life.
LJ.黄色的橡皮鸭 you’re never wasting time - esp. if you’re taking care of yourself ❤️
Having multiple passions frustrates me sometimes
Kay Amore Too ugh I know the feeling but I’ve learnt that it’s actually a blessing! ⭐️
Ughh same
Bobo M could you talk about it please?
@@BoboM I'll try to remember that, thanks :)
Me too 😥
I'm here for the change. I am thinking of re-branding too
yessss let's do it!
@@BoboM Thank you I love your videos
@@TaraKay asanti sana. So no I will move from nywele chronicles to Michelle Anyango
@@BoboM I love your videos and I love how everything you said in this video I am going through
Bobo Im currently going through spiritual metamorphosis, so I know exactly what you going through. Feeling like I was living for the world, instead of honouring God and what I feel like he put me on this world to do, I quit my job, and will be travelling to countries like Thailand, Morocco, and Asia where the misconceptions and assumptions run high against other minorities. Most people assume that African women aren't safe travelling alone, and granted that might be true at times, I want to be an example for women being strong, fearless, and trusting God. I think we need to see videos that raise collective consciousness, and educate people from all walks of life on what we all go through as people on Earth in various parts of the world. I love seeing happy people, unconditional joy even in the midst of difficulty, love after heartbreak, and people being honest beyond the sake of the all mighty dollar. Living for the world promotes low energy as the world can be a dark and lowly place. When you live for God, your purpose, and in your truth...you have peace. Love ya Bobo.!!!! Blessing with everything you do.
So beautifully said! And you're very welcome to Morocco! Great purpose! Please keep me up to date about your projects/ content!
Be safe in Morocco! Just so you know being half moroccan, moroccans are extremely racist. Not all but still be prepared.
If I had no fears, I would quit my full time job and pursue cinematography full time instead. I will do that one day but I’m not financially ready 😔
START NOW LOVE! Baby steps everyday :)
Did you go to film school at all or major in it?
I would like to see more realistic and uplifting content being normalized. Lots of us are falling victim to expectations and not embracing our reality.
LESEGO X YESSSSS I AGREE!!
I really like what you said about curiosity vs passion!!
I want to experience different cultures through food! Learn about people through what they eat. That’s something I love
JAYLOR07 omgggg I was just telling my bf this!!! I really wanna experience food tourism too ✨🌻
Bobo M yess!! Honestly food/eating is so rooted in culture. It literally shows you who people are. I did my minor in anthropology and ever since then I’ve been fascinated. I wanna know how pasta from Italy really taste lol 😂 I’m also a foodie 💁🏾♀️
I have been living for all your interviews this last year and I can't wait to see what's next for you with this new direction. You are so wise and I know your curiosity will lead you to brilliant places! ❤️
YESSS!! It’s so harddddd. I fear my true self so muchhh! BUTTTT when you find your
Ikigai (purpose) everything just falls into place! The discussion on curiosity and passion I love itttt! So trueee, when you follow your curiosity, you’re more mindful and you’re really enjoying the process rather than focusin about the destination. Plus girl i’m in my 20s and they say you better use these years to experience EVERYTHING.
Love the video girl✨💗
Honestly you are one of the people that continues to inspire me, i really appreciate the point you made on living with intentions i hope to continue watching your channel!
I loved this! I've been craving this kind of deep conversation about this topic for soo long. Thank you for speaking about this and I'm excited to see where your journey takes you!
I absolutely know how you feel, and I totally respect you for sharing your wise, real thoughts here. Proud to be a subscriber!
Honestly, your wisdom leaves me in awe. I always thought of you as of a limitlessly talented and creative person. But listening to this kind of thoughts of yours makes me feel a whole new range of emotions. You've helped me a lot with this video. I could never find "mine" passion or thing that I would like to commit my entire life to. It's just that there is sooo much exciting thins out there that I really want to learn and master at. Every time somebody would ask me what are my goals in life i felt so lost. But know it's clear to me, that all I have to do is follow my curiosity and see where it will take me. Thank you sooo much for this video! Sending you loads of love.
All i can say is ... thank you for this ! I have been on a serious funk that past couple of months and this short video just helped me so much ! ❤️🌹🌹🌹
Believe it or not I dont really hear alot of people saying they would like to be oprah so you saying that is actually a bit of fresh air 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
yessss speaking it into existence!!
Yesss 🙌🏾
I love this new style/direction you're going for!! :)) my fave videos are your sit down talks either by yourself or with someone else
How cool, I subscribed to you a while ago because of your diy videos and because of something about your vibe I like & I don’t normally follow fashion channels (I love fashion as an art form as well but I am conflicted about fast fashion etc.) and now you’re bravely doing your own thing and changing it up and that’s so inspiring! It’s funny how your story reflects the transition I went through a few years ago, but I went through that perhaps more so due to health issues (so I couldn’t mindlessly chase passions etc because my body didn’t allow me) and it’s cool that you do it because you’re in tune with yourself. I’m curious to see how your channel and your story will unfold in the future! All the best to you and greetings all the way from The Netherlands to you 💛🌷💐xoxo
Isabelle hiii! Omg I was just in the Netherlands, I loved it! I’m so happy to hear you relate and thank you for watching and staying on this journey with me ❤️ I appreciate you 😘
Sending you vibrations of Love, Positivity, Health, Happiness & Prosperity💗💗💗
You are an inspiration.
THANK YOU for sharing your journey🌻
How exciting! Thanks for sharing with us your journey. It's refreshing for me as a creative to hear/see other's that speak to beginning/ending of cycles in their life. To hear that you are phasing out a Fulfilled experience is awesome!! This represents "normalcy" for me b/c I value a multifaceted life that is fluid. Geographically, where I am, most find one interest, carve out their careers/lifestyle and later feel stuck. I find that we are aroused by what ignites us and its very healthy to explore. So to that, may your most predominate interests take flight! I don't identify with fear anymore. I'm daily blocking out fear and working through all the un-comfort while creating my brand/channel/business while completing school. Excited for what your new content has to offer, topics you spoke to resonated with me. xoxo -P
I love your spiritual talks , I’d like to see more of your rituals, Eg how you ‘worship‘ . Also how events in your life have shaped you.. I really love the personal stuff
I’ll always support u, you’re creativity will shine through regardless of what u do. I love your mind
aw thank you sooo much! Love you too bb :)
Bobo M ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is so crazy I started going through this exact transition. Its so amazing how powerful intention setting and curiosity chasing is. This was an awesome video thank you for having the courage to switch it up! Some people worry so much about their personal brand. Myself included.
Lex Exists yesss it’s really scary to switch it up especially after you’ve found success doing what you’ve always done but it’s so important and so necessary ❤️
I’m making the same transition today 😭 it’s scary but it’s time! Thank you for this❣️
Wow.. I love this so much. Helped to put so much in perspective. Great video!
Needed to hear this 🗣 Love the messages in the video. Chase your curiosity ✨
I have enjoyed your fashion journey although I worked in the behind the scene of fashion as a buyer. I am also rebranding and moving out of fashion as well. Wishing you all the best in your new journey, I know you will slay wherever you go
Yeesss do what you need to do. I'm here for it 👏👏👏👏👏
Yasss rebranding is good. curiosity and personal understanding is one of the best decisions I have made of late. It had cut across my UA-cam, side hustle as a filmmaker/cinematographer and broadcaster and firnds. It will be awesome to see you do videos about basics and starting up(i.e. Getting equipment, volunteer jobs, internships). I know you LL make awesome content in your new path.
littlebigluxury ahhhh im definitely gonna do that! Thanks for the tips ❤️
This spoke to me. Be true to yourself. Very inspiring ❤️
I think you’re so wise beyond your years, whether your videos are in fashion or not I’ll still be here supporting 🌸 it would be cool if you shared your creative journey.
BelleBean thank you I’m actually gonna do that! I love that idea ❤️
I love your spill about curiosity! I just relate to this whole video so muchhhh
Jeremy Clyde thank you for watching!
Im a curious little bug! I try everything. And being curious allows me to not have limits! I like to explore different forms of art (for example). Sometimes this curiosity gets me in trouble but hey! I love it.. allows me to learn and grow and to keep going.... I don’t have many limitations to my beliefs! There is so much in this world, I don’t understand people confining themselves into one thing only when they can do many things!
As a Gemini I believe you are one too , we are constantly curious about everything and it can be hard for us to solely focus on one thing .
I can totally relate with this. Going through something similar presently. Do you girl! ❤
Content about loving ourselves, uplifting ourselves and motivation. Healthy happy lifestyle
I have more than one passion and I definitely will support no matter what 💕anything you come up is creativity for me 💕
KeepinitRealLiz aw thank you thank you 🙏🏾
ur complexions looks so good with that braid colour
Hey bobo, I followed you because I found you funny, creative and interesting as a person. My reason for following you at the beginning was for photography: editing tutorials and through your self portraits learning how to feel comfortable shooting myself.
I then went on to follow you on Twitter but especially listen to you on your podcast Afrolit which really helped me learn about different subjects in different manner and have other women points of views and other women of color experience to which I could either relate or learn from. I thank you for it, and I think that type of content is really useful to me. I think it's important to share one's experience because it might be helpful to others in various ways and it's also important to share what we care about to educate people but also to create a bigger wider conversation that will go beyond the platform you chose to share it on. Thank you Bobo, keep being a celestial being and I wish you the best in all your endeavors 😊❤️
Alaska this is so sweet and insightful wow thank you 🙏🏾 I’m so happy you’ve found my content useful and I’m so grateful you’re watching.
Sending you love ❤️
I needed to hear this 🙏🏾🙌🏾
I would quit my job & start my own business!! .... I will still support you & I’m
Looking forward to your new content! Peace & Blessings!!
Love this! Just shared in my IG story! I totally agree!
Bobo, my African Aunty, keep doing you girl❤️ if there’s one thing I would do without fear is move to Cali and pursue my broadcast/ tv hostess dreams. Love you so much, Bobo🙏🏾👑❤️
I subbed bc of your photography tutorials. Love how open you are. Good luck on your journey. You can use your clout and sm experience to give a voice to girls in rural Africa for example. Make a documentary.
Tom London I WOULD LOVE TO MAKE A DOCUMENTARY!!!! Thank you 😊 I love that idea
Bobo M Do it!!!! You can and you would be great at it. With your skills you can do a really professional one. Also you can start documenting through photography as well. There is so much unique stories to find in Africa. I can see you as a journalist. The sickening slave trade in Libya was caught via camera. You can break real stories.
And here I thought your amazing self was the brand the entire time 🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️. You are awesome my dear. Im subscribed to your spirit, and you have a beautiful one. You will do amazing things regardless of how your roads turn. I'm interested In watching videos of you trying things you havent before. Your commentary and filming it would be great
I’m totally here for whatever you do ❤️
aw thank you thank you :)
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH .. gurl i need to cop this hairstyle im tired of my weave
The World needs people authentic like you!
People that believe in mind power but selflessly. People that believe in positive change.
If I had no fear i'd talk my way through Hollywood lol
I godly FOUND YOU some WEEKS ago... And I admire you... Such a inspiration so smart and beautiful but most importantly smart... Pls Keep doing it and inspiring us...
Gina Landazury thank you thank you! You’re so sweet 🌻❤️
Very smart young lady, you are. Learning so much from you.
We're basically the same age.... but I want to be you when I grow up😍. I appreciate you spiritual content and I'd truly appreciate seeing more of that.
Congratulations on your growth
If I had no fear I'd get back on UA-cam and post videos more consistently, I would practice sewing, believe I'll attract customers for my biz without the use of IG and the Twitter, and draw and paint more. As for content ideas I'm really interested in myself and other people breaking rules and sharing who they truly are like the true occurrences of their human experience because God made us all different and with unique purposes seeing more people be themselves whatever that may be and showcasing to others that its all you are here to do and just experiments where people are put in situations to be positive/kind and build better relationships with themselves and others. Other then that its great to hear you speak your truth Bobo and I'm excited for what to come!
I may not know you in person but I've learnt a lot from you Thank you for being you
Oprah's taken, be you! :*
Trueeeeeeee!!
More philosophy content please!
omg i just read about passion vs curiosity in Elizabeth Gilbert's book big magic! i have a lot of passions too, at this point, it doesnt bother me, but I am excited to steer away from them and do what i am curious about *right now*. I'm down for videos on spirituality and consciousness!
So true! Omg! I got to my goal and was like, “Now what.....”
I was sent to this channel for a reason wow 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
If I had no fears, I would quit my full time job and focus on starting a business and create content for UA-cam/ Instagram. Also I am here to support you in following your dreams.
I’m excited to see your new content & journey .. I think IG & UA-cam needs more uplifting & positive content. If I had no fear, I would quit my 9-5 to do UA-cam full time. I would also travel with my family & film the different experiences.
withlovedesirie thank you so much! I’m sending you love, light and courage so you can quit and live your best life ⭐️
Bobo M thank you !
Hi!...are you on facebook?...I am so inspired by you!..you are pretty and have attained so much wisdom at such a young age, I'm very proud of you, you are a influencer because you have many talents!
Yes! Do you you boo ✨
thank you lovely :)
Get it beauty! And I would live on my own if i put aside fears/
If I had no fear, I’d pursue fashion and beauty full time while starting my UA-cam channel. Where I live, I like many others work in healthcare but my heart is in fashion. I’m in school for fashion merchandising but I can’t even share my learnings with the people around me because they won’t understand. I feel so conflicted.
I don’t have a specific kind of content subject that I think the world needs right...I just think that whatever it may be, it needs to be organic, natural, and true...less of the unrealistic superficial stuff.
I’d be in the studio recording all these songs I’ve written. 😖
Kittana Smith Woiii goodieee you deh ya 👀
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙈
It takes a lot of guts to do what you have done. I'm going through a similar phase(which partly explains my absence from my Instagram @lilyofnigeria). I am working towards rebranding. I don't want to be a poster girl for pretty pictures and empty/witty quotes whilst simultaneously begging/hoping that big brands take note of me and work with me. I have archived all of those pictures. I want to contribute to the positive change in the world. I'm here for anything that will uplift me, and following what makes me happy. I love how much you believe in yourself. A toast to being Oprah by next year🍾
If I had no fear. I would travel and even experiment with being a gypsy. I would start my fashion brand. Not just clothes but a IG / social media magazine, telling stories/ perspectives that aren't usually told. I would want my work to view fashion/ beauty as a tool to navigate social justice.
If I had no fear I’d hang out with more people and be more social
If I had no fear, I’d quit my job and explore the creative depths and desires of myself, and travel the world.
I’d be the FREE being that my soul is yearning to be.
I'm a photographer from NY, I often look for tutorials and things and I've been recently watching your channel is very inspirational, your photoshoots the beauty, etc, sadly I'm late to the party and is all years ago, wondering where u went led me here sadly it seems like you are done creating content.
Content: Vlogs, advice, relationships, talks, a lot that inspire you.
Yess love ya love ya
:) the love is so mutual!
😍😍😍😍😍😍mesmerising
If I had no fear I would do university part-time to make time for art/ content creation.
I could listen to you speak forever.
I thought curiosity killed the cat?
I’ve been lied to my whole life!😭
But good on you 😘 all the best in tv!
Hahah no curiosity actually SAVED the cat!
‘Satisfaction brought it back’ 😂
If I wasn't afraid I quit my job to start my film production, producing and directing .am sick of writhing scripts upon script but alway waiting for the right time
Oh my God you are so unbelievably stunning. Oh my God.
Makaela Mahoney you’re so sweet thank you !!!
If I had no fear I would tell my crush that I like him, and just go for it. Whatever the outcome 😭❤
More interviews 100%
You are so so beautiful though😍😍😍
ahhh you're too sweet - I appreciate you!
I've also been thinking of rebranding, but are worried that my following isn't big enough yet 😕
Please take me with you on this journey!
If I had zero fear I would wear my afro out in public. I would experiment with fashion more. I would dress up more. I would travel the world. God I would do so much. Ugh. I need to work on myself 😅
If I had no fear I would drop out of school right now because I truly know in my heart I am not seeking what I truly desire. It would hurt me so much to disappoint my family who is all rooting for me to be the first to get my degree, but I can do so much more. I know it and I feel my raging potential resting dormant somewhere hidden within my fear. I will not quit school for my mother unfortunately.
That exactly it! I've so different passions, people usually do not underdstands me, And that is why I've made my youtube chanel, to share it with a lot of persons, Thank you fir your video, it cleared my mind in the sense that I should pursuit things that I'm curious about
If I had no fear I'd spin a globe and whatever country pops up would be the one I'm booking the next flight to!😱
Hey. Nice to see you here. 😊
@@JeanWandimi Hey Jean!😍 I loove this channel!
i would spend my money on recording with artists and engineers, i would heavily promote myself and my music and singing, and i would travel travel TRAVEl with my music and voice and connect w ppl around the world
!
Where can I get your top?
god i wish you were my best friend lmao
Henna Sahota let’s be best friends!
