Hi there, i am a german viewer (living in france) and recently discovered your channel. I really appreciate your content and admire how driven you are - i especially like the videos in which you take us along your days and give tips on how to be productive. I love your standpoint on having kids which is very often not really talked about. We decided to have only one child and we are very happy with that decision. I love being a mom but i also have so many other things that interest me. I also completely respect women who decide to not have kids at all because they want to completely focus on their careers or for other reasons. You should never live your life according to expectations from your environment. Thank you for your great videos.
Jen you speak the absolute truth! About marriage, about kids, about career limitations and how horribly expensive daycare is. And yes a lot more is put on us women generally and yes def if we have a family. Thanks for sharing and talking about it- we are not alone in thinking like that :)
Morning, Jen! Just up after enjoying your live video last eve. Thank you so much! And just have to say again how much I admire your openness, transparency, and genuineness...and this morning, need to add, grace. You are truly such a positive example to so many, not the least of which are your children. Thank you so much, Jen! (From someone old enough to be your mom). Barb
I was so excited to see you were going live then I realized it was 11 pm here. Lol I love hearing your take on life! You seem like such a great person. Thanks for sharing!!
Jen, getting to spend sometime with you on this rainy day. You bring so much sunshine to my day. I admire you with each video and visit. Thanks for working so hard to connect with us.
I agree. I tried staying home but after 5 months I went back to work. I think your kids have a lot of respect when mom works and still is the theater mom, choir mom, etc.
Jen you really are an inspiration. ...love love love watching your videos. Love your honesty and your bubbly personality. Yes by far my favourite youtuber. Watching out from Malta in Europe for about 21 years now ❤
That was fun. I want to thank you for being real and not bull s***ing anyone. It’s not mess in your home it’s life it happens. Personally I think you look fantastic and I wish I could do what you do in a day. I’m not fit enough to do all I need to do. I get comments from lifelong friends that I just need to try harder, these are the same friends who along with me have struggled with weight but not health. I will be 58 in august but feel so much older, the brain still functions but the body has given up. But hey ho I’m still here breathing and getting lots of love from my 8 grandkids who make everything better. Keep doing what you’re doing it’s working, don’t put any pressure on yourself for Vlogust keep that for Vlogmas instead lol. Sending love and hugs your way xx
Wait until the kids are older. Mine were 16 and 19 when we went and had a ball. London, Paris, Venice, Rome with day trip to Florence ( bullet train) and flew out of Rome through NYC home to Orlando.
At 16 I would have told myself "You are capable and smart and can do anything you want to do by yourself. You are worth waiting for a good match before you get married (I grew up in the 80s, my parents pushed 'finding a man.' Not their fault; I made the decision to get married as an adult). But, I would tell myself that it is also okay to be married and to want to be a supportive wife. I hope that makes sense.
That’s the same for me. I had great pregnancies through out, but towards the end I get preeclampsia and toxemia. I had postpartum w my first also. I had mr daughter at 29 and ten tied my tubes, no regrets. I’m in my 40s and both kids are graduating college in 2022.
It was fun to see you live. I have t.v. show on Netflix for your kids and you too. Julie and the phantoms. Cute show 9 episodes. I think your daughter would like it. My kids loved it.
The live was great! It was super fun to unwind for the night. I've never actually participated in a live before! I'm looking foward to the next one. It was like hanging out with friends. Your awesome Jen. Keep it up ❤👍
Wondering if you would include in your merch something regarding your love for caprese salad? Fun fact: every time you say “caprese salad” in your videos, I yell out “SHOT” and go have a shot. 👍🏽😂
You ARE a badass person. Sometimes I just think about your "fuck off" attitude and feel better about life. Because same. I would tell my 16 year old self to do classes at the community college, not the 4 year, to really figure out what you want to do. I ended up with a different degree than I started for, and now I don't work in the field at all for my degree. I just felt like, well, I'm here now. Might as well do something. Because we were told to go to college or you'll never get a job. And now we know that's not true. I am you, my husband is Adam, and I totally get that comfort too. The level-headedness. We need that balance to depend on. It makes me feel grounded, at least. And his integrity was massively important to me. Also, I love that your "thing" is just that you're a working mom who likes to cook and sometimes likes to clean (but does it anyway). You are my absolute favorite yter because of that. And you give me #goals
I found a You Tube channel that really helped me to declutter slowly over the last couple of years - Dana K White. She is funny and very logical at the same time. She has a couple of books and a podcast. Her first book was "How to manage your home without loosing your mind". I wish I had found it before I retired - It would have made my life so much easier....
This is exciting but I was at work and couldn't watch live but you're the best Jen. Love the merch. I wanna get a sweatshirt. Hugs Elissa modesto cali @elissa_tc
I love your confidence. You are healthy, smart, and positively inspiring. Always be you.
I’m so thrilled you came out with merch! It’s darling! 🌈 can’t wait for your upcoming Ina Garten video 🎉
Kim, you should do a live! It would be so fun!!
Kim and Jen you should do a collab!!
@@chelsealotocki917 yes!

I love your honesty. I wish I could put aside what people think about me as you do. It must be very freeing. ❤
“Oh fuckin’ well” is my motto for the rest of 2021. 😂😂😂😂
Jen you speak the absolute truth! About marriage, about kids, about career limitations and how horribly expensive daycare is. And yes a lot more is put on us women generally and yes def if we have a family. Thanks for sharing and talking about it- we are not alone in thinking like that :)
I"m so bummed that I missed the live! Darn mountain bike practice! 😜

You are amazing and hilarious! Awesome job with all the nonsense comments!
My horribly long commute home from work was awesome thanks to this. 😃
Glad you enjoyed it!

Awww! My hubby and I met at 14, started officially dating at 17 also! And you’re absolutely right marriage is HARD!
Your subscribers love you Jen! I like the new merch! Love you girl.
I loved the closet chats! They were great. Drink coffee instead of beer.
Oh my word Jen, you do well under fire 😁 😎 what would you do if you had a day extra......... Probably not a Q & A lolol
You are beautiful; I can’t believe that people comment on anyone’s physical appearance. I love that you’re real.
Hi Jen it’s Amanda from England, I’m watching this the next morning Thursday. Love this, love you 😍
I LOVE YOUR COOKBOOK!!!!!! Great Merch!!! You have a great countenance - your smile is great!
Cute items. Can't wait for the meal planner.
Oh Jen, for your next cook book.. More food photos please 📷 😊
I really enjoyed this video, you are so funny! #TeamLeaningTowardsMessy

Loved this live sesh! 😊❤👍
Loved the Q n A..
Keep going 💪
Sorry I missed the “live” but glad I could catch up.
That’s the same for me. I had great pregnancies through out, but towards the end I get preeclampsia and toxemia. I had postpartum w my first also. I had mr daughter at 29 and ten tied my tubes, no regrets. I’m in my 40s and both kids are graduating college in 2022.
Also, congratulations on the merch I’ll need a 2xl 😘 but I want it all 😂
It was fun to see you live. I have t.v. show on Netflix for your kids and you too. Julie and the phantoms. Cute show 9 episodes. I think your daughter would like it. My kids loved it.

❤️ your channel. Hi ! From Moline, Il.
You ARE a badass person. Sometimes I just think about your "fuck off" attitude and feel better about life. Because same.
I would tell my 16 year old self to do classes at the community college, not the 4 year, to really figure out what you want to do.

Because we were told to go to college or you'll never get a job. And now we know that's not true.
I am you, my husband is Adam, and I totally get that comfort too. The level-headedness. We need that balance to depend on. It makes me feel grounded, at least. And his integrity was massively important to me.
Also, I love that your "thing" is just that you're a working mom who likes to cook and sometimes likes to clean (but does it anyway). You are my absolute favorite yter because of that. And you give me #goals
Gutted I missed the live chat! Going to catch up now, whoop!!
Much ❤
I enjoyed your video.
F....John
Ugh!!!!! I missed your live!!!!!
Your birthday is the same as my husband’s. He’s numerous years older though.
So sorry I missed you live! :(
Dang!! A LIVE? AND I WAS BUSY AT WORK😭
Would of bought a sweatshirt but needed a larger size. :(
I need a 4xl if possible
Me too!
Love dr. Drey!
Killing 2 birds with one stone is called Multi-Tasking. A perfectly proper thing to do.
I found a You Tube channel that really helped me to declutter slowly over the last couple of years - Dana K White.
She is funny and very logical at the same time. She has a couple of books and a podcast. Her first book was "How to manage your home without loosing your mind". I wish I had found it before I retired - It would have made my life so much easier....
Thank you!
There was another youtuber that got pizza delivered to her house during her live too. It was weird this happened to you too.
🙂
Acts receivables money coming in, payables are& invoices to pay

This is exciting but I was at work and couldn't watch live but you're the best Jen. Love the merch. I wanna get a sweatshirt. Hugs Elissa modesto cali @elissa_tc
I don’t have any interest in a birth vlog. Somebody’s snatch is NOT my idea of entertaining 🤢
