Something ive done thats made me proud of myself: My mum passed away last march and i have just recently asked for help off counselling services im proud of myself for that
Alfie as a boyfriend to Zoe has always been my favourite Alfie.. but seeing Alfie as a dad makes my heart smile so much! You are the best dad Ottie is very lucky ❤️
I’m proud of myself for getting out of the house everyday. It may sound strange but I have an anxiety disorder that enabled me to go outside, but I’m doing it anyway. First it was just a 5 minute walk. Now I’m doing groceries again and going by public transport. Babysteps but getting there!
Something I'm proud of: I worked really hard for months in order to get accepted to a very good art & design academy, and I got accepted!! Loved the vlog Alfie, these always make me so happy 💕
Something I’m proud of: I’m a teacher and I kept a class and others safe during a situation that became dangerous quickly. Was pretty risky for me in hindsight but I kept it together and stayed as calm as possible.
For the past 10 years or so I've struggled with anxiety, this past year it has became unbearable and this past week I finally for the first time spoke to my doctor and am now in medication to help, its something so small to other people but to me it's a huge achievement ❤
I’m proud of myself today for going into work on my birthday when it’s raining and cold and I’m digging holes for fencing. Just started watching your vlogs and really enjoy the positivity etc keep up the great work and keep being a loving family
Something I'm proud of: I just got to the year mark of living in another part of the country from my parents and in-laws. Me and my husband moved this time last year and it's been one of the scariest decisions (especially initially), but it turned out to be the best thing for us. We got a chance to start over and have a new, fresh life after having our first apartment burn down about 5 years ago.
I have been really enjoying these vlogs recently as they're so positive. I am fourteen and struggled with my mental health at the end of last year but as the weather gets sunnier, the daylight time longer I am generally much happier. I love how you show real life in away that is cheerful and it makes me notice all the brilliant things in my day to day. Recently, I've been going to a club at school were we play dungeons and dragons and I hosted my first game to day. Its only the beginning but I think I am pretty proud of the story I've created and the props to go along with it.
You’ve been keeping me going working from home pregnant with my second little boy. - 25 weeks today which is a big achievement. Last year my little one came at 24 weeks it was a tough time was in nicu for 4 months home for two then he was diagnosed with a rare mitochondrial disease and passed away at 8 months. Was hard watching your videos and for Zoe to mention that if some viewers are finding it difficult to watch your vlogs was very thoughtful but now I’m pregnant again and can now manage, I am really enjoying them! Thank you x
Something I've recently done thats made me proud of myself: Last month I traveled all the way to California from the Netherlands on my own. I went there to meet my long distance boyfriend for the first time, after meeting online two years ago. I always used to be too anxious to travel but he gave me a good reason to face my fears. Now I feel like I can do anything!
Something that I’ve done to make me proud of myself is that I moved out of my family home into my own flat at 19 years old and got a new job. I just feel like I’m being more productive in this new year. Also, watching your videos makes me pursue that energy that your giving off to your viewers and I think that absolutely fab!
I've been stressed and depressed, honestly. The past 2 years have been rough. I barely sleep. I'm hoping I can find some less stressful feelings and be able to sleep and not wake up tossing and turning. It's cold here in the states (Boston), so I can't go on a walk yet. But hopefully the weather will be nicer so I can get out of the house and out of my head. Blessing to you all!
Loved this vlog! Something I did recently that I was proud of what getting promoted in my role 7 months into my job! Feels good to have your hard work recognized especially when we’re all working remote - a lot harder to prove your worth when you aren’t around managers in person!
Something ive done that made me proud of myself is staying positive in sometimes very negative times. My boyfriend is from england and im from holland and we live together in the north of holland. He struggles sometimes but im more proud of him than me because he adapted so well and even tho it might be hard in certain situation, we are always there for each other and me being positive really helps❤
Your videos has always put a smile on my face. When life is difficult I put your videos on and instantly feel a bit better. I’ve watched your videos since 2013 and realising that that’s almost 10 years is absolute madness. I was in high school when I started watching and I’m now a professional pastry chef & chocolatier. Time just flies by it’s actually crazy to think about how fast time goes by 🤯
Love the question in the end of the vid! After suffering from anxiety for a long time I'm finally learning to take time for myself. Still a work in progress but practice makes "perfect". Have a great day!💛
Also answer to the video, I am pregnant and feeling really prepared with my husband, we are in the third trimester and have most things set up and ready now so just a small thing I feel good and proud about.
Something I’m proud of is that I’ve recently started couch 2 5K to better my fitness and to try and keep my body moving in a gentle way after having a coccyx injury. It does so much for my metal health and I find it so motivating!! I’ll be using this fitness to then start at the gym and slowly build that up too☺️Love your chilled videos and seeing Ottie x
Hey Alfie! I started watching your videos back in 2014 when I was a 13 year old in middle school. Which is so young and almost a decade ago! I used to watch every video you and Zoe would create throughout the years. Those videos practically raised me. They helped me become the person I am today. You used to always talk about mental health and how important it is to prioritize your mental health. You once said this one thing that has always stuck with me on why it’s so important to do therapy even if you think you don’t need to. (I’m paraphrasing), “you don’t go to the doctor only when you’re sick, you also go to the doctor to prevent yourself from getting sick, so that you can be the healthiest version of yourself”. And I stopped watching RUclips as much as I used to in the last few years. But that has always stuck with me and I learned to actually practice that in my life. To make my mental health a priority. And now I’m watching one of your videos at 20. I’ve seen you grow into the person you are now, the partner and the father you have become. And it makes me so happy to see that you still preach about how important our mental health is, even if it’s just for a sponsorship. Thank you for all the amazing years of content and for the life lessons. 💖 To answer your question: I’m proud of how patient I have been with myself lately. It’s so hard going from being a teenager to an adult during the pandemic. Lost half of what should of been my college “experience”, just like most people my age. And it’s been hard to know what I want to do with my life, where I want to go. But I’ve been learning that all I have to do right now is focus on the work I do in the present, because that will lead me into the future. Planning as I go.
I’ve really loved reminiscing and watching the old Zoe, Alfie and Mark vlogs lately. I love the dynamic that all of you have and then watching you and Zoe with Ottie and your family. It just makes me so happy that you are all happy! I love you as vloggers because you get so involved with us fans and it makes me super happy- Much love from Bournemouth 💕
I am proud of myself for getting outside and finally getting my potatoes planted. Looking forward to having a proper garden this year. Hopefully, things will grow and look beautiful. I so want to share the things I grow with my family, neighbors, and my coworkers. I really want to learn to can food as well.
In September I moved to London from Michigan which I am very proud of myself for! It feels so full circle from watching you and Zoe's videos as a teenager to living here now watching your videos! Glad you were able to enjoy this sunny weather this weekend, have a nice week!
I am proud of myself for getting back in the gym and doing more to maintain good health as I near 30. Ottie is just the most precious little bean I have ever seen, and I can only hope to be as blessed as you and Zoe someday.
Love it these chill vlogs! Have watched you for years and felt like we’ve grown together. Something that I was proud of was taking the weekend to not worry about anything and just chill. Not work or any other kind of stress. Just some self care love that I struggle to take.
Currently I'm wedding planning as i recently got engaged in October last year, enjoying time with my family and friends and trying to make more of an effort with fitness as i have got lazy. Ottie has the cheekiest little face, so cute! Something I am proud of is doing things for me, i tend to fill up any free time i get to make everyone happy but this Saturday i have no plans and i plan on doing some painting in our bathroom because I've been putting it off!!!!
something I've done recently that made me proud of myself is that i realised more who I am and seen the true colours of some people that made me feel bad without me even noticing how bad they were making me feel. i feel much more in tune with myself and proud to even realise it. I guess i'm growing and i can feel it mentaly and it's actually so freeing. also i've whatched you since you and zoe just moved in together and i'm now 17 and feel like you are the couple/family you can look up to because we have all whatched you grow and you seem like the nicest people.
I spent a week taking care of my new born niece all on my own whilst my sister and my brother-in-law were in the hospital with a bad case of Covid. I’m proud of myself.
It’s so refreshing to hear how you speak instead of how people talk today this street slang so lovely and I love watching you both grow as a young couple 🙏🏼💯❤️
I hope this doesn't offend you but I've been watching you for so long just noticing the crinkle wrinkles around your eyes now as obviously you're older than you were when I started watching in like 2011 and it makes me so happy because those are the kind of signs of aging that show that your life has been happy and you smile and laugh enough that the memories get etched into your face. I just love that that is how your face is growing older, through joy!
Hello Alfie 👋 Absolutely loving seeing you, Zoe, Ottie & Nala back on the vlogs! I used to watch your daily vlogs everyday on my walk home from walk and it's so nice to see how things have changed so much but somehow still feel the same! This week I'm proud to say I've had my best month yet of sales over on my Etsy shop - been running my little side business for just over a year and now beginning to see progress 😄 Hope you and your lovely family have a wonderful week ahead x
I’ve recently started going to therapy & attending support groups, super hard but I’m happy that I’m learning to be more kind to myself and to be more vulnerable ❤️
Your vlogs are so calming! Something I've done recently that I'm proud of is trying to eat better and keep track of my calories. I'm learning so much about what food makes me feel good and how to listen to my body.
I’ve managed to stick to writing every night in my 6 minute diary, my one line a day diary & my bullet journal. Something I’ve always wanted to do & I’m really enjoying it.
something I'm proud of: exploring a little village in Sweden (I'm from Belgium) all by myself. It takes some courage to get outside, but when I am, I love it!
Loving your content recently! I’m currently in my final year of uni, getting to a really busy assignment period now but your videos are really helping me unwind and take some time to myself! Hope you are well :)
I’ve experienced a lot of back pain recently. Last week I started doing back exercises daily. It has helped and I take much less pain killers as a result. Pretty proud of myself😊
Lovely vlog as always! 🥰 I really appreciate you making time for your “online family” as well as your amazing family at home! Something i am proud of myself for is simply that today i looked back at myself one year ago and recognised how much i have changed! Such a hard year and i became so much happier!
I had a really unhealthy relationship with my parents and quite a traumatic childhood so something I am really proud of is how I have bonded with my baby girl who was born May 21, I was so fearful my whole pregnancy that my mental health would stop me loving her and that we wouldn’t bond and I am proud of how far I have come in raising her and loving her! Ps. You sent me and my fiancé a wedding message in 2019 and now we both have daughters!!!!
I took stress leave from work as I’m not in a good place mentally. Usually I would just try and chug along but not this time. Accepting my feelings, opening up to others, and doing what’s right for me - I’m really proud of myself for putting myself first for once. I also have booked my first psychologist appointment off the back of this!
I’m so proud of both you and Zoe, you have grown so much over the years! You are such a inspiration! I have watch you and Zoe for so many years, I can’t even remember! So proud!
Hey! I'm proud of myself for getting offered a position for an internship I've been wanting! All five years of college has finally paid off and I'm very excited about my future
For the first time ever I didn’t procrastinate a project and stay up all night to do it. It’s a habit I’ve been hoping to break my whole life. Even though I just moved to Paris and my coursework is more than I’ve ever done I’ve still managed to keep myself productive and efficient whilst having fun. Thanks Alfie!
I’ve taken some much needed time off work so I’m thrilled to actually be watching your vlog within an hour of you uploading! Recently I’ve been getting more active & eating better, you forget how good it makes you feel!
Love the vlog thanks Alfie. Parenting is one of the most draining exciting happiest exhausting time in your lives. It goes so quick and I think you remain tired now forever even when there adults. My daughter is caught in the horrific floods in Australia at the moment I can’t speak to her as power is out now and it’s that fear of the unknown I hate. But I’m proud I am remaining as calm as I can and dealing with issues as they arise rather than just collapse in a mess. Take care loads of love to you Ottie is just the cutest love leisa Western Australia xx
I’m proud that I’ve carried on with my law degree, I’ve been struggling with a breakup for so long now but I’m starting to really focus on myself and focus on my degree as I know the future I want and I’m going to go and get it!!!
Hey Alfie! Been watching your videos since the first video of you and Zoe!! How time flies, now I’m 20 and in my second year at university! One thing I am really proud about is setting boundaries in my life and getting better at saying no to things and taking more time for myself! Love you and your little family, always love the ottile content
Something I've done that has made me proud was still trying to get my workouts in although I feel so beat up and tired😆 I've been seeing some good progress so im ensuring that I stay consistent
Hey! Loving the chilled, relaxed vlogs! The last few weeks I have been on a teaching placement at a primary school (UK) where I’m going to be teaching the whole class full time for the next 4 weeks! I’m so nervous about it but your vlogs/ instagram is so inspiring and motivating that I feel mentally prepared! Hope you, Zoe and Ottie are doing well? Also, got a nearly 2 month old little niece who I’m obsessed with so just life is a dream! If you’re reading this comment hope you are doing okay? 💖
Hey Alfie, I love the chill family vibe of this vlog. So relaxing! Something that made me proud of myself recently was that I got my first position as a yoga teacher at a local studio! I’m super excited to start this new journey 😊
Loving these comments. And loved the chill vlog, as always 🙄😉 I’m proud of myself for handling a really stressful week last week with my landlord screwing up, difficult colleagues, family tensions and the 2nd anniversary of my Mum’s death. I managed to keep my cool with it all overall, as much as I was tested, and remained constructive and Im really effin proud of myself for that 😅🥰 started this new week with good energy. 💪🏾
Just came back home from work and this is like the best present I could get. I so enjoy watching yours' and Zoe's vlogs and have been rewatching a lot of old ones and realised how much I have grown with you over the years, while watching you guys grow and expand. It is just amazing, have been subscribed to you and Zoe since like 2013-2014 and watched almost every single video to the point that it feels like I am very close friends with you guys. Thank you for making me love what I do and enjoying life, I learnt so much from you guys ✨👍🏻
Not something I’ve done but my dad is on his last day of his chemo treatment and I’ve never been more proud of anyone in my life. He’s fought and taken everyday in his stride and I’m so proud of him
The something that I am proud of myself for is not necessary something I’ve done, but more of a mindset shift. After being so unfit all my life, I started in November last year trying to get into looking after my body better. I’m proud of myself for wanting to do better and that on my fitness rest days, I’m looking forward to the next active day rather than dreading it. ❤️
Reading the comments, I realize how different everyone’s life is. I’ve been having a tough time lately. I’m not sure if it’s the cold here in Canada that makes me hate productivity or maybe my body is just telling me to rest but I haven’t done much lately that made me proud other than waking up and going to work. I did a workout a couple of weeks ago but haven’t been keeping up with it. I should get back into it. I always feel much better mentally when I workout consistently. I hope everyone is doing well ❤️ I’m loving the vlogs Alfie!
Something I’ve done that made me proud of myself is building on my anxiety over the last two years I’ve suffered really bad with my health and had to have an operation but because of covid no one was allowed with me for me it was a massive deal because of my anxiety but I ploughed through it and in the end I have seen how far I have come over the last few years with developing my confidence and positive mental attitude 😌
Alfie! I’ve watched you and Zoe for over a decade! Both of your videos are my happy place and have gotten me through some rough days. Love you both immensely and love seeing you both grow into AMAZING parents! I feel like we’ve grown up together because I’ve watched yours and Zoe’s videos for so long. Lots of love❤️
Hey Alfie, to answer your question, I think that I have started taking more care of myself not only physically and emotionally, but also spiritually. Hence this has affected my life and others life around me as well in a positive sense and this makes me really proud of myself. Also, I have decided to start my own RUclips channel and watching your videos inspires and motivates me to make a vlog and JUST START DOING IT. A massive thank you once again, and it'll be great if you'd answer on my comment!☺🤗
Just started my new job today so proud of myself for that, starting a new challenge and hopefully setting myself up for a better future 👌 loving the vlogs
I celebrated my 18th birthday and managed to balance being with friends, family and it being in my workplace haha, I'm very proud of that and overcoming the stress I felt going into it
Somenthing that makes me feel proud is that im now going to theater classes and it is somenthing there i always wanted to do 🥰 Love your videos Alfie, greetings from Mexico✌🏻
hello alfie, i’ve been watching you and zoe for years. i hope you and fam are well. gorgeous family. i’ve just been here chilling before i leave for the military next monday. been binge watching all the vlogs!!
I’ve just left my job of 7 years, I worked in hospitalised and was starting to really hate it. Within a few hours I was offered the job of my dreams and I’m super proud of myself!! Got the spark back that had disappeared and I can’t wait to start ✨
I booked a ticket for 1 and took myself to Steven Bartlett's Diary of a CEO live show on my own. I met the most incredible person who sat next to me and had a wonderful conversation - probably wouldn't have happen if I went with a friend. Really enjoyed the show and particularly going on my own!
Something Ive done recently that made me proud of myself: I left my old job to start the journey for my dream job. I’m now a nursing assistant in a hospital doing an apprenticeship. This is the start of my journey to hopefully go into midwifery or child nursing. Gonna been a long journey with lots of studying, but hey at least I started. Leave my old job was so scary and starting something brand new that ive never done before madness.
Something I am proud of myself for: I recently started a very mild beginners workout but I've NEVER kept up with one before and I have now for a couple weeks. Not trying to lose anything but just want to be healthier and toned a bit.
Hey Alfie, I'm absolutely loving these kind of vlogs. I've been watching your videos for years now and they definately helped me improve my English! Last month I was able to get an amazing internship position at an international company in Berlin. I am proud of myself that I was able to convince them of my talents and personality. It has been an amazing experience so far and I am looking forward to the next few months there.
I'm getting my first tattoo on Wednesday and I'm super excited. My parents have no idea and that part is bit scary but can't wait 😁 Your baby girl is so adorable ☺️
Something I've done thats made me proud of myself: I'm finally sticking to a workout routine and a healthy way of eating after years of binge eating\eating disorder.
hey alfie I like your new style of vlogging very much. I´m a 24-year-old college student in germany and watch your and zoe`s videos for years. I`m proud for completing a project in university and getting a good grade for it. I did the project all by myself which is not usual in my field of study, which is architecture and urban planning. I´ve had a bad car accident in 2018, which led to me pausing university for several semesters. This is not the first project i`ve done since but it is the first i`ve done by myself which makes me so proud. I find it very important that you talk about mental health and mind management because I can relate very much to that. Escecially when you experience a stroke of fate or even if you don`t, you need to watch out for your mental health and talk to people about it. I´ve not seen a therapist for my mental struggles but when I see people like you talk about it, I remember the importance of talking about your problems so you can work through them to become a better version of you. Thank you (also to Zoe) that the two of you keep putting out relaxed and easy going content. It makes my deyes :)))) love you guys byeeeee
projects can get very stressflull, and a lot of pressure can build in the last couple of weeks before the project needs to be completed. that is why mind management is an important topic for me and for my personal growth
Something I’ve started doing recently that I’m proud of is i have started to draw fashion illustrations and fashion croquis ( just for fun) and I drew my best one yet yesterday! And I’m very proud of it! Just wish it could be what I do for a living instead of my current ‘job’.
loving the vlogs recently! I just finished my first placement in a hospital for my child nursing course at uni which has made me very proud of myself as this time last year I struggled a lot with my mental health and couldn't really do much independently
Something ive done thats made me proud of myself: My mum passed away last march and i have just recently asked for help off counselling services im proud of myself for that
Alfie as a boyfriend to Zoe has always been my favourite Alfie.. but seeing Alfie as a dad makes my heart smile so much! You are the best dad Ottie is very lucky ❤️

Babysteps but getting there!
I SWEAR Ottie said “I Love You”!!!!!!! She’s sooooooo adorable! It’s such a joy to get to watch her grow up.
I was proud today that I cooked 198 primary school children dinner, absolutely love watching you and zoe, thankyou, I find both of you very healing
Something I'm proud of: I worked really hard for months in order to get accepted to a very good art & design academy, and I got accepted!!
Loved the vlog Alfie, these always make me so happy 💕
Ottie in her bouncer is the cutest thing EVER. Also love how zoe's wearing a christmas onesie😂
Something I’m proud of: I’m a teacher and I kept a class and others safe during a situation that became dangerous quickly. Was pretty risky for me in hindsight but I kept it together and stayed as calm as possible.

The video is a complete mood haha “caffeine whip cream” and then Zoe in her Christmas pjs and just wacking the whip cream on the floor! Haha loved it!
Also answer to the video, I am pregnant and feeling really prepared with my husband, we are in the third trimester and have most things set up and ready now so just a small thing I feel good and proud about.
Something I’m proud of is that I’ve recently started couch 2 5K to better my fitness and to try and keep my body moving in a gentle way after having a coccyx injury.

Thank you Alfie and Zoe for sharing your beautiful family with us. Your videos brighten the darkest of days.

Thank you for all the amazing years of content and for the life lessons. 💖

I am proud of myself for getting back in the gym and doing more to maintain good health as I near 30. Ottie is just the most precious little bean I have ever seen, and I can only hope to be as blessed as you and Zoe someday.
Love it these chill vlogs! Have watched you for years and felt like we’ve grown together. Something that I was proud of was taking the weekend to not worry about anything and just chill. Not work or any other kind of stress. Just some self care love that I struggle to take.
Currently I'm wedding planning as i recently got engaged in October last year, enjoying time with my family and friends and trying to make more of an effort with fitness as i have got lazy.
Ottie has the cheekiest little face, so cute!
Something I am proud of is doing things for me, i tend to fill up any free time i get to make everyone happy but this Saturday i have no plans and i plan on doing some painting in our bathroom because I've been putting it off!!!!
something I've done recently that made me proud of myself is that i realised more who I am and seen the true colours of some people that made me feel bad without me even noticing how bad they were making me feel. i feel much more in tune with myself and proud to even realise it. I guess i'm growing and i can feel it mentaly and it's actually so freeing.
also i've whatched you since you and zoe just moved in together and i'm now 17 and feel like you are the couple/family you can look up to because we have all whatched you grow and you seem like the nicest people.
I spent a week taking care of my new born niece all on my own whilst my sister and my brother-in-law were in the hospital with a bad case of Covid. I’m proud of myself.
It’s so refreshing to hear how you speak instead of how people talk today this street slang so lovely and I love watching you both grow as a young couple 🙏🏼💯❤️
I gave birth to twins (boy & girl) 8 weeks ago. Every day is hard work so I feel you with feeling tired all the time but it is so worth it! 🙌🏻
I hope this doesn't offend you but I've been watching you for so long just noticing the crinkle wrinkles around your eyes now as obviously you're older than you were when I started watching in like 2011 and it makes me so happy because those are the kind of signs of aging that show that your life has been happy and you smile and laugh enough that the memories get etched into your face. I just love that that is how your face is growing older, through joy!
Reading this comment just added another wrinkle to my face haha
Just what I needed on a Monday! Sending my fav lil family all the love and hugs❤️
I am currently in my 3rd year of studies and I'm always sooo stressed. These vlogs always help me to calm down :)
Hello Alfie 👋
Absolutely loving seeing you, Zoe, Ottie & Nala back on the vlogs! I used to watch your daily vlogs everyday on my walk home from walk and it's so nice to see how things have changed so much but somehow still feel the same!
This week I'm proud to say I've had my best month yet of sales over on my Etsy shop - been running my little side business for just over a year and now beginning to see progress 😄
Hope you and your lovely family have a wonderful week ahead x
I’ve recently started going to therapy & attending support groups, super hard but I’m happy that I’m learning to be more kind to myself and to be more vulnerable ❤️
Your vlogs are so calming! Something I've done recently that I'm proud of is trying to eat better and keep track of my calories. I'm learning so much about what food makes me feel good and how to listen to my body.
Congratulations on your precious beautiful baby, God has truly blessed you!!!!!
I’ve managed to stick to writing every night in my 6 minute diary, my one line a day diary & my bullet journal. Something I’ve always wanted to do & I’m really enjoying it.
something I'm proud of: exploring a little village in Sweden (I'm from Belgium) all by myself. It takes some courage to get outside, but when I am, I love it!
Loving your content recently! I’m currently in my final year of uni, getting to a really busy assignment period now but your videos are really helping me unwind and take some time to myself! Hope you are well :)
I’ve experienced a lot of back pain recently. Last week I started doing back exercises daily. It has helped and I take much less pain killers as a result. Pretty proud of myself😊
I honestly find the coffee making in these vlogs so therapeutic! ☺️
Lovely vlog as always! 🥰 I really appreciate you making time for your “online family” as well as your amazing family at home! Something i am proud of myself for is simply that today i looked back at myself one year ago and recognised how much i have changed! Such a hard year and i became so much happier!
I had a really unhealthy relationship with my parents and quite a traumatic childhood so something I am really proud of is how I have bonded with my baby girl who was born May 21, I was so fearful my whole pregnancy that my mental health would stop me loving her and that we wouldn’t bond and I am proud of how far I have come in raising her and loving her!
Ps. You sent me and my fiancé a wedding message in 2019 and now we both have daughters!!!!
I've started to get into a routine with waking up earlier than I'm used to and going for walks, so far so good :)
I took stress leave from work as I’m not in a good place mentally. Usually I would just try and chug along but not this time. Accepting my feelings, opening up to others, and doing what’s right for me - I’m really proud of myself for putting myself first for once. I also have booked my first psychologist appointment off the back of this!
Seeing you and Zoe so happy is just amazing. Huge love to you both xx
I’m so proud of both you and Zoe, you have grown so much over the years! You are such a inspiration! I have watch you and Zoe for so many years, I can’t even remember! So proud!
I have been actively trying to be kind to myself, that’s what I’m proud of :)
Hey! I'm proud of myself for getting offered a position for an internship I've been wanting! All five years of college has finally paid off and I'm very excited about my future
For the first time ever I didn’t procrastinate a project and stay up all night to do it. It’s a habit I’ve been hoping to break my whole life. Even though I just moved to Paris and my coursework is more than I’ve ever done I’ve still managed to keep myself productive and efficient whilst having fun. Thanks Alfie!
I’ve taken some much needed time off work so I’m thrilled to actually be watching your vlog within an hour of you uploading! Recently I’ve been getting more active & eating better, you forget how good it makes you feel!
Love the vlog thanks Alfie. Parenting is one of the most draining exciting happiest exhausting time in your lives. It goes so quick and I think you remain tired now forever even when there adults. My daughter is caught in the horrific floods in Australia at the moment I can’t speak to her as power is out now and it’s that fear of the unknown I hate. But I’m proud I am remaining as calm as I can and dealing with issues as they arise rather than just collapse in a mess. Take care loads of love to you Ottie is just the cutest love leisa Western Australia xx
I’m proud that I’ve carried on with my law degree, I’ve been struggling with a breakup for so long now but I’m starting to really focus on myself and focus on my degree as I know the future I want and I’m going to go and get it!!!
I love the coffee making montages that alfie does, i dont know why but it feels like a meditation
Hey Alfie! Been watching your videos since the first video of you and Zoe!! How time flies, now I’m 20 and in my second year at university! One thing I am really proud about is setting boundaries in my life and getting better at saying no to things and taking more time for myself! Love you and your little family, always love the ottile content
Something I've done that has made me proud was still trying to get my workouts in although I feel so beat up and tired😆 I've been seeing some good progress so im ensuring that I stay consistent
Every time Alfie uploads it makes me so happy I cant even describe it. Thank you for uploading more consistently recently!!!!!!
I was discharged this aftenoon, after spending the weekend in hospital! Your chilled vlog today is just what I needed.
Hey! Loving the chilled, relaxed vlogs! The last few weeks I have been on a teaching placement at a primary school (UK) where I’m going to be teaching the whole class full time for the next 4 weeks! I’m so nervous about it but your vlogs/ instagram is so inspiring and motivating that I feel mentally prepared! Hope you, Zoe and Ottie are doing well? Also, got a nearly 2 month old little niece who I’m obsessed with so just life is a dream! If you’re reading this comment hope you are doing okay? 💖
Hey Alfie, I love the chill family vibe of this vlog. So relaxing! Something that made me proud of myself recently was that I got my first position as a yoga teacher at a local studio! I’m super excited to start this new journey 😊
Loving these comments. And loved the chill vlog, as always 🙄😉 I’m proud of myself for handling a really stressful week last week with my landlord screwing up, difficult colleagues, family tensions and the 2nd anniversary of my Mum’s death. I managed to keep my cool with it all overall, as much as I was tested, and remained constructive and Im really effin proud of myself for that 😅🥰 started this new week with good energy. 💪🏾
Hey Alfie! I’ve been watching you for about 10 years. You’re still my favourite person to watch🥰
Just came back home from work and this is like the best present I could get. I so enjoy watching yours' and Zoe's vlogs and have been rewatching a lot of old ones and realised how much I have grown with you over the years, while watching you guys grow and expand. It is just amazing, have been subscribed to you and Zoe since like 2013-2014 and watched almost every single video to the point that it feels like I am very close friends with you guys. Thank you for making me love what I do and enjoying life, I learnt so much from you guys ✨👍🏻
Not something I’ve done but my dad is on his last day of his chemo treatment and I’ve never been more proud of anyone in my life. He’s fought and taken everyday in his stride and I’m so proud of him
We've just got back from a weekend of detection dog training in the New Forest 🐾🌲so nice to wind down watching these videos 😌
The something that I am proud of myself for is not necessary something I’ve done, but more of a mindset shift. After being so unfit all my life, I started in November last year trying to get into looking after my body better. I’m proud of myself for wanting to do better and that on my fitness rest days, I’m looking forward to the next active day rather than dreading it. ❤️
in this current situation we're living it's nice to have some chill happy vlogs thank you, alfie, for creating safe space for us to take our minds off
I’m having a really tough day and your video has brought a little bit of light to my day
Reading the comments, I realize how different everyone’s life is. I’ve been having a tough time lately. I’m not sure if it’s the cold here in Canada that makes me hate productivity or maybe my body is just telling me to rest but I haven’t done much lately that made me proud other than waking up and going to work. I did a workout a couple of weeks ago but haven’t been keeping up with it. I should get back into it. I always feel much better mentally when I workout consistently. I hope everyone is doing well ❤️ I’m loving the vlogs Alfie!
Something I’ve done that made me proud of myself is building on my anxiety over the last two years I’ve suffered really bad with my health and had to have an operation but because of covid no one was allowed with me for me it was a massive deal because of my anxiety but I ploughed through it and in the end I have seen how far I have come over the last few years with developing my confidence and positive mental attitude 😌
I wrote a book and it's coming out in June. I'm so proud about that !
Alfie! I’ve watched you and Zoe for over a decade! Both of your videos are my happy place and have gotten me through some rough days. Love you both immensely and love seeing you both grow into AMAZING parents! I feel like we’ve grown up together because I’ve watched yours and Zoe’s videos for so long. Lots of love❤️
Hi Alfie! Love watching the chilled, family videos :) Hope you and the fam are doing great! love all the way from Missouri
Hey Alfie, to answer your question, I think that I have started taking more care of myself not only physically and emotionally, but also spiritually. Hence this has affected my life and others life around me as well in a positive sense and this makes me really proud of myself. Also, I have decided to start my own RUclips channel and watching your videos inspires and motivates me to make a vlog and JUST START DOING IT. A massive thank you once again, and it'll be great if you'd answer on my comment!☺🤗
Just started my new job today so proud of myself for that, starting a new challenge and hopefully setting myself up for a better future 👌 loving the vlogs
I celebrated my 18th birthday and managed to balance being with friends, family and it being in my workplace haha, I'm very proud of that and overcoming the stress I felt going into it
Somenthing that makes me feel proud is that im now going to theater classes and it is somenthing there i always wanted to do 🥰
Love your videos Alfie, greetings from Mexico✌🏻
your videos comfort me so much as i’ve been going through a hard time. thank you so much :)
hello alfie, i’ve been watching you and zoe for years. i hope you and fam are well. gorgeous family. i’ve just been here chilling before i leave for the military next monday. been binge watching all the vlogs!!
I’ve just left my job of 7 years, I worked in hospitalised and was starting to really hate it. Within a few hours I was offered the job of my dreams and I’m super proud of myself!! Got the spark back that had disappeared and I can’t wait to start ✨
I booked a ticket for 1 and took myself to Steven Bartlett's Diary of a CEO live show on my own. I met the most incredible person who sat next to me and had a wonderful conversation - probably wouldn't have happen if I went with a friend. Really enjoyed the show and particularly going on my own!
Something Ive done recently that made me proud of myself: I left my old job to start the journey for my dream job. I’m now a nursing assistant in a hospital doing an apprenticeship. This is the start of my journey to hopefully go into midwifery or child nursing. Gonna been a long journey with lots of studying, but hey at least I started. Leave my old job was so scary and starting something brand new that ive never done before madness.
Something I am proud of myself for: I recently started a very mild beginners workout but I've NEVER kept up with one before and I have now for a couple weeks. Not trying to lose anything but just want to be healthier and toned a bit.
I took myself for a snowboarding lesson and loved it! I would definitely recommend to anyone!!!
Hey alfie, thank you for your chilled vlogs. I‘ve been going through a breakup so your video put a smile on my face today😊
Hey Alfie, I'm absolutely loving these kind of vlogs. I've been watching your videos for years now and they definately helped me improve my English! Last month I was able to get an amazing internship position at an international company in Berlin. I am proud of myself that I was able to convince them of my talents and personality. It has been an amazing experience so far and I am looking forward to the next few months there.
I'm getting my first tattoo on Wednesday and I'm super excited. My parents have no idea and that part is bit scary but can't wait 😁
Your baby girl is so adorable ☺️
Something I've done thats made me proud of myself: I'm finally sticking to a workout routine and a healthy way of eating after years of binge eating\eating disorder.
hey alfie
I like your new style of vlogging very much. I´m a 24-year-old college student in germany and watch your and zoe`s videos for years. I`m proud for completing a project in university and getting a good grade for it. I did the project all by myself which is not usual in my field of study, which is architecture and urban planning. I´ve had a bad car accident in 2018, which led to me pausing university for several semesters. This is not the first project i`ve done since but it is the first i`ve done by myself which makes me so proud. I find it very important that you talk about mental health and mind management because I can relate very much to that. Escecially when you experience a stroke of fate or even if you don`t, you need to watch out for your mental health and talk to people about it. I´ve not seen a therapist for my mental struggles but when I see people like you talk about it, I remember the importance of talking about your problems so you can work through them to become a better version of you.
Thank you (also to Zoe) that the two of you keep putting out relaxed and easy going content. It makes my deyes :)))) love you guys
byeeeee
projects can get very stressflull, and a lot of pressure can build in the last couple of weeks before the project needs to be completed.
that is why mind management is an important topic for me and for my personal growth
Something I’ve started doing recently that I’m proud of is i have started to draw fashion illustrations and fashion croquis ( just for fun) and I drew my best one yet yesterday! And I’m very proud of it! Just wish it could be what I do for a living instead of my current ‘job’.
loving the vlogs recently! I just finished my first placement in a hospital for my child nursing course at uni which has made me very proud of myself as this time last year I struggled a lot with my mental health and couldn't really do much independently
Lovely feel good vlog. Hope you feel better soon Alfie, have a great week 🥰🧡💙
I’ve been watching you for ages!! Since I was in year 7! Now I’m a first year uni student!! I love the chill vibe videos!!
