Here's the thing...If you like your content, your audience will follow.
I'm about to have my 54th birthday and enjoy seeing a creator with whom I can identify.
Live your joyful life, and thank you for sharing it with us! ❤
It definitely true that your viewers have seasons of their own. The past two months have been so busy that RUclips/instagram have fallen out of my daily routine. And it has nothing to do with my favorite content creators! I’m sure it is so so hard not to take numbers personally. And by the way, videos like these make me feel like I’m out for coffee with a friend ❤
1) I appreciate your content
2) Jack Frost was creepy
3) Love the Swedish Death Cleaning (all seasons)
4) love your straight hair and the cut
My late grandma used to say “only money pleases everybody”, followed by “you can’t fit in when you’re born to stand out”. The work that you do hits the right notes with the right people, so don’t think too much about pleasing everyone, just focus on being yourself - that’s why we’re here ☺️
LOVE THAT
You do you. No one can please everyone. I'm happy to see a more mature woman making vlogs, especially not vlogs that tell me what to wear or how I should be doing my makeup over 50.
Wallet air tag. My husband bought it for himself. Leaves the wallet everywhere; Universal Orlando bathroom, top of his truck, rest stop, state fair . . .
Yeah and with his work sometimes it’s Chicago or Brazil. Excellent Christmas gift idea for him!
I get such peace and comfort from your content, Jen! Just do what feels right to you and know you’ll have at least one person whose day is always made by a new Jen upload ❤❤
Olive that is such a kind comment. Much appreciated!
Love you Jen and hope you don’t ever quit! Bring us vlogs, bring us your hair appointments and driving around with your husband, bring us cleaning out your fridge… just bring yourself! That’s why we are here ❤
Tanner you are so very kind. I needed that exactly. Thank you.
I loved how you put that jobs have seasons and bad days. I have watched you since month 9 of your channel because you were making RUclips progress videos then that is why I remember. Then you expanded into two channels and I have enjoyed your Disney content because I watch Disney vlogs and stayed with your joyful living content because of how you present yourself and share your wisdom in a positive and happy way. Be kind and gentle with yourself. You have done a lot.
I don’t think I’ve ever posted here before but I will today, given what you reflect upon later in the video. I really enjoy your channel and get excited when a new video pops up. And I think what speaks to me the most is that your videos are authentic, they do not come across as scripted, and it feels like we are having a conversation about all the things we experience in life, particularly at different stages of it. Your packing videos prep me for mindful packing, and your clean outs offer great advice on organization, the health-related videos speak to what I am experiencing too…and I love Vlogmas! And I will go on record as saying that Jack Frost is too quirky and weird for me NOT to pass up. And I think the Heat Miser’s brother was Mr. Frost. 😂
Wow, thank you, Stacey! That means so much to me. Truly.
There are so many things about your business that are beyond your control, I can completely understand how it can be frustrating. Will look forward to whatever content you find joy in creating!
Thank you so much!
He was Mr. Snow Meister in The Year Without a Santa Claus. Love your content.
I think it’s Snow Meiser, I loved that movie as a kid.
Jen--- Love you and your channels. These are the types of vlogs I love! I love Day in the life vlogs , as well as Disney and Disney Cruise contents (I know that you are moving a little away from Disney, and I totally understand that). I retired from nursing recently to concentrate on my health (psoriatic arthritis)- so love any day in the life videos as Im trying to get my grove not going in to work every day (i know you work.....but I like to see how people live who are home). Also I love watching Disney content because thats just my happy place (and would love to some day do a cruise). Please know your content makes me very happy.
I appreciate you! Remember the people criticizing you/controlling your content views don’t care about you. We do! They just want you to make them more money. You couldn’t do this if you weren’t proud of everything you create. They want drama and click bait views. They need you! You don’t need them!
Thanks, Cindy 🥰🥰🥰
You are so right. McD's orginal Coke does taste different. I have heard it is all about the straws. They use the large straws so you get more at one time. Who knows?
Jen, i like your content ..... I will be here to see how you go from here.... I have been here for all your changes on your channels and I will still be here! You do you and don't worry about pleasing everyone.
I really like this content. Like a daily vlog chatty content is what I love. I found you earlier in the year via seeing you with Adam in Disney. Keep doing what you’re doing and evolve how you feel is needed. Do what you like and don’t follow the trends, we are all here for you.
Thank you so much for that, Laura!
I spy Fontanini nativity (I recognized that angel immediately!). My family has loved the Fontanini nativity and it’s not very common to see. So great for little hands. I love your hair!
Yea! Can't wait for more videos like this one! You are so right about decluttering holiday stuff after Christmas...no one wants to do that, way too tired. My husband also has his "drop zone" in our kitchen, it looks like a clutter catcher. 😂
It drives me nuts and as much as I love this house, there's really ZERO storage as you walk in the door so it's just chaos.
Honestly Jen, I will say this over and over about you and your channel....Keeping it real is why I love watching your vlogs! It's actually fun to watch "a day of your life" kinda vlog and I think that's what sets you apart from other Disney vloggers. It's genuine and it works for you and your viewers! Always do what feels right to ya!
Thank you so much! Comments like these make the job so much easier
Thanks for sharing, lately has been a tough time for me. It's reassuring to know I am not alone 😊❤
Hang in there!!!!!
I always call you “my best friend Jen Laforge”. I truly feel like I have hung out with a friend when I watch your videos. They do cheer me up and are uplifting. I’m sorry the algorithms are not reflecting the quality of your work. And I am sorry your brand meeting was difficult. I appreciate you very much!
Yay Advent calendars!! My favorite part of volgmas. Love the hair!
I love this kind of video!
My favorite comments were made by Scott Lefforge: “this is a really stupid conversation” and also, “I’m trying to drive, Jen” (said urgently).
😂🤣
You just be you, Jen, and I’ll keep tuning in every time. ❤️
Your content makes me feel so much calmer about life and the encouragement to continue giving it my all. I appreciate everything that you and I hope an encouraging comment can give you even a fraction of what you give your viewers.
I needed that more than I can say, Michelle. Thank you!
Loved the video. You always make me laugh and I appreciate that. Thank you for doing what you do.
You are so welcome!
I’m so glad you put a video out today. My son is getting married tomorrow and I’m a bit of a busy emotional mess and I needed a few minutes to myself. 😊
Congratulations! That's wonderful and I GET THIS SO MUCH. too much stress and excitement I'm sure. I hope it's a beautiful day.
Paused the video to say these things before I forget. His name is Snow Miser. Also my best friend and I call McDonald's diets a fresh diet, we have for 20 years? And we have days where we say I need a Fresh Diet and that means let's go to McDonald's. Also your hair looks great.
I so much enjoy watching your videos! Gives me a little bit of light in my day. And its great that you stay authentic and how you crack yourself up! Lol! Thank you 💚
I really enjoyed this video. It has helped motivate me to get ready for the holidays. Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!
I stumbled upon you when you traveled with Adam and I so enjoy your content. Your personality & vibe resonates with me as I too am a woman of a certain age, married for over 43 years and mom to two adult sons and a golden retriever. Cheers from Pebble Beach......
I always look for your content. Your dogs just warm my heart and want to be by your side. So sweet. Whatever you decide to talk about is fine with me. Good luck. 😊
Thank you for this very "real" video, Jen. We all know that exposure to a lot of social media can make us feel as though our lives aren't exciting or happy or interesting enough. I know in my head that we all have less-than-great-days now and then, but the fact that you are willing and brave enough to post a video acknowledging that your day wasn't the best just makes you that much more relatable and, in my view, watchable. I appreciate you and your videos, and look forward to everything you post. Remember the phrase "Don't let the turkeys get you down"??? Easier said than done sometimes, but we do our best! (P.S. - Lovely straight hair!)
Dang, Jen. I’m sorry you’re having a tough time. You do you, Buttercup. I appreciate you and your channels. Have fun on your Disney trip.
Love listening to you and hearing about your trips and life
McDonald's-I've heard the drinks are great because of the carbonation level and the patented straw that is larger than a normal straw.
Love this type of content Jen!
Hi Jen! Just wanted to say, I liked your content today. It feels like you or at least the ‘you’ that I know from watching your channel for 6 years. As I said to my middle schooler last week, you don’t need to be popular, all you need is to be happy with yourself and have a supportive system of people you trust. But i know thats easier said then done!
As a side note, thanks for get me in the holiday spirit! I hope we get to see your mom in the upcoming vlogs. Love her!
Love the new style!
I love these type of videos. ❤️😘
Love this video and the direction your channel is going. I can’t wait for the new year’s content.
Jen - thank you for this vlog. I love the honesty. Your channel is always enjoyable and fun.
Always look forward to ALL your videos. Congrats! On the holiday clean-up. You inspire me. Great to see the pups, too! Happy travel adventures in Nov.
Jen, I so enjoy your videos and content on both channels 💕 I love that you are honest, hilarious and you certainly bring joy to my day. 🥰 hang in there and have a wonderful holiday season!
Thank you for everything Jen! I sure appreciate you! I am looking forward to more vlogs like this🎉 hooray!!! And all your other content !!!
I really love your daily vlogs and I can't wait to see your content this holiday season. It always brings me joy!
Thank you so much, Morgan!
I always love listening to you since 2019- home vlogs, decorating, tips on content creation. I love your opinions and all. ❤❤❤
I really enjoy your videos. You make me laugh and give me ideas on how to keep organized and declutter. And you really don’t have a lot of Christmas decorations for a large house! And I love your packing videos so can’t wait for the next one!
Thank you for sharing the advent calendars, I ordered three of the See’s calendars 😊
Your videos are super! I have been with you since the March of the pandemic! Don’t look back! Always look forward! Keep on doing what you do best, which is to try to spread joy in this sometime sorry world! I am there for it! Love the cruises overseas and here closer! Keep on keeping on! 🎉
Great video. I loved how intrigued your beautiful dog liked looking in the Christmas closet
Your hair looks fabulous! Love your content as well!
Your videos are the highlight of my day! I can relate to you in so many ways. We are DVC members and I’m pretty much a kid at heart like you. I’m married to a pilot and yes, he loses his wallet all the time! I hope you show a video of your home all decked out for the holidays!
I will! Thank you!
Thank you Jen have a great Trip ❤
Thanks for the kind message! I found you during COVID and have loved the channel.
I like you Jen! I really like you! 😊
Your videos are down-to-earth, realistic, and I feel like I'm listening to a voice of reason. Thank you for that!
Just no to Jack Frost! I agree, who wants something scary and creepy for Christmas??? But yes to minimal (but meaningful to me) Christmas decor. I also LOVE Advent Calendars. It's a tradition for me to get one for my son and his long-time girlfriend (usually a really nice one and then a cheap one from Aldi with cute little chocolates in them...just because you have to have chocolate everyday of Advent!)
I appreciate you Jen! Looking forward to your Vlogmas!
Jen,I love your content,you make me laugh,whatever you vlog I am now a faithful follower,looking forward to what’s next!!🇨🇦
I got on board with looking at my baking ingredients and starting to restock a few weeks ago (thanks to the encouragement you provided in a vlog last year). Right now, thinking about Christmas decs is a bit too much for me, but I'm glad I feel prepped for the baking!
You're a joy, Jen. Keep up the good work ❤❤❤❤❤
Youre so kind! Thank you!
Love the hair 🥰
Yes, I absolutely like your vlogs, and travel, and all of it.
THANK YOU!
Keep on trucking. Enjoyed the day to day stuff
Thanks for this, sweetie. I've had the longest week of my life, and you are a breath of fresh air.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Beth. Hang in there.
Your hair looks gorgeous!
Jack Frost looked more like the Night King of the Dead Army from Game of Thrones.
I found and started watching you for Disney vlogs/DVC info but have loved your other content! I think vlogs are so fun and have really enjoyed all of your home content as well!
I love to hear it, Allie! Thank you!
Hi, Jen! Just wanted to tell you that I appreciate what you do. I really enjoy your travel vlogs, your Disney stuff and also your home/car/running errands videos. Really enjoyed your Christmas content last year. I may not comment much but I'm a faithful watcher. Take care!
Thank you SO MUCH. That really means the world to me!
Maybe Jack Frost is a new Halloween/Christmas crossover since everything is starting to blend anyway?
Love this type of content ❤❤ Can we have some more please!!
I love both of your channels. I always enjoy your content, especially your vlogs. I’m terrible at remembering to like videos but I’ll try to get better! I do watch everything you put out and I have for years. I started following you as a fellow DVC member looking for DVC/Disney content. Over the years, I’ve found that I enjoy your non Disney videos just as much or more! Please keep doing what you are doing! Your content is probably my favorite on RUclips!
Oh, Tamela, thank you so very much!!
My heart broke a little at the thought of you leaving. I found you during the Great Unpleasantness, and you have brought us all such joy. I have been day dreaming about the time we finallly make it to Disney at the same time and I can finally do a Patreon meet up. Keep spreading your sunshine! ❤
Thank you so much, Jenne. I appreciate you so very much.
Love these vlogs you do! Proud to be a patron and always look forward to your videos.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!
Jen, thank you for taking us along on these types of journeys! I love that we can talk about Creepy Jack Frost and also, recognizing that every job has its moments. I am definitely feeling the need to go through the holiday stuff this year. Lie, I can't keep up with the dust *before* I bring that stuff out....sooooo. ;)
Having a curated holiday collection feels much better to me and yes easier to clean!
LOVE your hair OMG! Looking forward to Vlogmas !
Thank you so much for your honestly Jen. I have also had one of those weeks with my business, and seriously considered just giving up. I am fairly new to your channel, and love your content. Please continue to share the joy…it’s contagious!😊
I feel like every job has those days and it's SO great to hear I'm not alone! Thanks, Beth!
Love the way your hair came out, Jen! Also, love your curly hair though! Great video!
Love your hair!
Love this vlog so much 🥰🥰your hair looks so beautiful 😃 am so excited for all the festive vlogs ahead 😃 am getting in the mood today with my first festive Starbucks coffee (I know it’s crazy but I get very excited for the Starbucks Christmas cups 🤣)and buying gifts😃 have been a huge fan for a while now - love ya xxxxx
Just watched to the end - really really appreciate everything you do 🥰🥰xxx
Love the hair
Omg. Love the hair. And I love your high quality exciting content. Haha 🎉
Well I mean we are just over here living our best Diet Coke from McDonald’s life 😂
They perform some kind of magic to reel us in 🎣
Love your channel. It’s just real life. Nothing fake about you. 👍
Love your hair!! Love War Games!
Rankin/Bass obsessed here. Snow Miser. I was this close to getting both the See’s and Tea Forte calendars. Chocolate scares me because migraines but I do LOVE See’s. I got Vadham tea this year. Look forward to hearing about Tea Forte. I’m thinking about possibly McCrea’s caramel calendar
Coke keg…yes! And now I want one! 😋
Jack Frost 🥶 holy moly what a creep!
Excited for your regular vlogs and vlogmas!! 🎄
This vlog resonates with me so so much! Both with getting rid of decorations to even moreso content/business related. And yes, the content creation stuff is exhausting!! So I just wanted to say, I see you, I hear you and I feel deeply with you! ❤
Autumn, anybody who's done this weird job for any amount of time starts to feel that burn out and just EXHAUSTION right? So glad you can relate!
Scotty is pretty funny! Yay advent calendars, can’t wait for your vlogmas videos!
Jen, I saw an ad for that Jack Frost and he is allegedly the Martin Short character from Santa Clause 3. Wherever he came from he is terrifying but also he seems to be going viral and I saw it here on your channel first!
I needed to start with cleaning out more of our Christmas. I went through the family ornaments and picked out some family ones for my cousin. We don't put out the breakable ones because of the cats. Love your content, I just discovered you last year..
Right? It's just better!
The Santa’s are so cute-keep them please 😊
You did the Costco wine advent calendar…I know because your videos made me go get it! I didn’t finish all the wine, either. Love your videos!❤
I'm Mr. Cold Miser, I'm Mr. Snow... LOL
Have a great trip. My mom has some vintage Christmas figurines that we put out for Halloween because they are so creepy. I feel that Jack Frost is the modern version of them.
Did they get Christmas and Halloween confused?? And I think it's Mr. Freeze. I can only speak for myself but I enjoy just seeing real life vlogs like this one!
Seriously that was my thought as well! Nuts! And thank you so much, Angela.
The candle one would be the word for Pharmacy in German, Ah-Poe-Te-Ka (Poe like edgar allen, and te is French tea) though as funny as my pronunciation description probably is, google translate can say it.
Seeing your donation clean out pile is good motivation for me to keep clearing out stuff. Downside, I'm at the ambulance base until 8am tomorrow, and I cleaned the junk out of my backpack the other day.
I'm flying to WDW on Tuesday, so need to spend the weekend getting my luggage in order. Excited for a 12-night trip, not excited about tetris-ing 13 days of gear
See you soon!
Loved this video, Jen.
I'm with you on those scary so-called Christmas characters. That's not what the holiday season is about.
Absolutely LOVE your hair. I do exactly the same. Otherwise mine looks like a frizzy Afro.
I'm surely not the only one glad to hear you're not going wild and crazy in order to get more subs. As Billy Joel sings, we love you just the way you are.
Love your hair.
Yes! Diet coke from McDonald's does taste better. Now I'm craving it. LoL.
I enjoy watching your vlogs. Just do you. Sending you hugs.
Cute hair!
Cold Miser maybe
My dog Buddy had a whole conversation with your pups when they made cameos in this video 😂
LOL I love hearing that!
Heat Miser and Snow Miser
