    I think it's just maturity when you realize that being happy is not wrapped up in outside accomplishment but in living your life well, being present and loving the people in your life. Once you are able to fund the lifestyle that you are satisfied why stress out over doing more?

    Just wanted to let you know that your videos are pretty much the only ones that I genuinely look forward to watching these days. So genuine and authentic and always just feels like a catch up with a pal!

    I really wish people would STOP asking couples about babies. Just STOP! I understand the curiosity but haven't we learned by now that it's none of anyone's business? I cringe whenever a woman has to answer such intrusive questions. I'm sure you get asked a lot, and for that I'm sorry.
    Aside from that, I LOVED this video so much. Again, it's like hanging out with a friend. It helps that we have similar philosophies about life and success lol. I like my simple little life. As long as we can make enough to afford our bills and a vacation here and there, I'm good. My energy is going into finishing school and someday opening a nonprofit.
    I'm happy you're vlogging again! 🥰🥰🥰

    This is going to sound so silly but I got a bit emotional watching this, because what you said about ambition really resonated with me. Now that I’m in my mid 20s while I still care about furthering my career all i ultimately want is what you have, a beautiful home, loving partner, enough cash that I’m able to do things I enjoy and most importantly a cat ❤️

  • @sueinns5048
    @sueinns5048 Год назад +39

    OMG I would so visit a coffee shop run by you both !
    I love your videos because you are so authentically you! There is no click bait, no fakeness to you both. You are not money hungry and doing videos just or the views, you film when you can and what you find interesting. I love that.

  • @sarahsearle9598
    @sarahsearle9598 Год назад +11

    Definitely feel the same as you! In my 20s I did my degree and wanted success etc...then I got married, had kids and I'm now working in a school doing a job that I love and that pays enough to contribute to our bills and allows us to take the kids on some amazing adventures. LA last week was INCREDIBLE. I just want to go back to America!
    Feeling content is good, I think! Not having huge ambitions is often seen as a bad thing but it shouldn't be! Big love.
    Ps- love your coffee shop idea, my hubby has actually written a book set in a coffee/book shop! Xx

    I just want to say what a positive impact you’ve had on mine and I’m sure so many other peoples lives! I think that’s way more important an achievement than being the top of any given career ladder! I’m so excited to hear you’re still working on your book, whatever happens with it ❤

  • @carmencrozier5215

    Well I watched that video while working out and you talking about your novel and how fulfilling writing it has been made me quite emotional. That was an interesting combination for a gloomy Wednesday evening! If you ever get to publish it, I’ll definitely buy a copy because I’ve always loved the way you communicate your ideas on this channel as well as your humour 💛

    Lucy- I just wanted to say that your videos have been helping me to feel less alone recently and that life can be fun (excuse the closing scene of ‘Matilda’ reference). Your humour and wit, even when talking about deep topics, make them a joy to watch. Looking forward to exploring your NY vlog soon. 🧡

    I think in the US, hot cross buns may be a regional thing. I grew up in Boston and San Francisco and always had hot cross buns at Easter, but when I moved to the deep south, I went years without them. Now I can get them sporadically at Florida based grocery Publix. I love them because they remind me of my childhood...
    Absolutely believe in not letting go of the nostalgic things in life. Music is a huge memory maker for me and I still listen, every day, to the tunes I came of age with and remember so many things associated with them.
    Can't wait for more NYC and hate that you missed Grand Central and the Oyster Bar Restaurant.

    I think (hope) we all look at what we’re doing quite often and wonder if it’s still serving us. I LOVE my job, I’ve worked hard to get where I am, and it affords me lots of time off and cool perks, BUT it’s shift work and it’s so difficult to make plans with loved ones and get Christmas etc off, so it’s a constant question of if it’s still for me.
    I love these chilled, deep chats. And Flo, and surprise hampers that look UNREAL 🤤

  • @nick6403
    @nick6403 Год назад

    Everything you said about enjoying the things you enjoyed when you were younger and allowing that nostalgic fun really resonated with me big time ! The feelings you describe are exactly how I've felt whilst replaying my old classic playstation games and it's lovely to hear I'm not the only one taking a good trip down memory lane as an adult !
    Lovely to see you posting again - looking very forward to part 2 of new York !!

And I’ve missed you girl 💕 Today it really felt like we were in the same ‘space’ ….a coffee shop is an amazing idea btw ! And what place better than to do your book signing 😘 😂it’s good to spend some quality time with you my friend 💕💕

    Usually a silent viewer but had to comment on this! Your mystery Italian item is actually from my Hometown!! 🇮🇹 Mostarda is essentially sugary fruits in a mustard flavoured syrup, growing up we’d have it on Christmas Day with meats and cheese and it’d be like a Russian roulette picking fruits from the jar as some fruits become spicier than others in the syrup. Definitely an acquired taste 😅

    The career I have found myself in is not one I would ever have imagined for myself. I fell into it and at some point during lockdown I decided that I would make of it what I could, and I have landed a very good job in a fantastic team. If my younger self knew where I’d ended up I think she would be slightly shocked at the path I’ve gone down. But I’m older and wiser than that person and I’ve decided for us both that this is the best I could have done with the options I’ve been given. Despite not going into a job that I thought I would, I’ve found a really nice life for myself and I feel very content. And though it is a career role, I feel absolutely no pressure to be ‘successful’ but rather more focusing on the idea of self growth instead. It just so happens that both have complimented the other.

    You say briney hot cross buns would not be good & yet one of our major supermarkets launched burger sauce with pickle hot cross buns this year. They were ok (speaking as a pickle fan) but the standout ones were the official vegemite hot cross buns. 12/10 mix of sweet & savoury & you just add butter when warm. No fruit, just the sweet bread bun with a slightly salty overture.

Did you know that the woman playing Daisy Jones, Riley Keough, is Elvis Presley's granddaughter!?
