Hii! It's been a bit since I've posted on here but I'm slowly getting back into it. Still very much exploring formats, so today was more of a chatty video with some sketching inbetween. I hope at least one person out there feels less pressured to create or improve as fast as possible. :')

I am a disabled artist and used to feel so much shame around the fact that I could not keep up with the insanely fast-paced demands of the algorithms and the industry.
The more I have washed away the shame, stayed away from the internet, watched less short-form content and more cinema, spent more time outside, embraced my boredom, etc., the more I've felt my love for art coming back in droves. I haven't had this much excitement and passion for art since middle school. I've even noticed a significant increase in the speed of my improvement and growth in technical skill as an artist as I have become more comfortable letting go and enjoying the moment.
These are really good things to think about. Thank you for sharing.
Disabled artist here too. I also had to let go and accept that I'm slower because I have to spend more time taking care of myself
But I also noticed that accepting slowness made me faster (more productive in less time invested) 💖
Keep taking care of yourself✨
Listening to this kind of made me cry. I am a disabled artist, and after finishing college for art I just was so burnt out, and I felt so frustrated that even now after close to a year of being out of college I got nothing to show for it. No job and my portfolio rather sucks. So hearing this is very comforting, and I hope I can actually put the tips into action and actually improve mentally and love art again
I'm into art since I was 17, now I'm 35, and still working on my style cause I don't have one. But I'm always trying and improving, testing materials and experimenting to see what gives me more freedom to create. Everyone's pace is different
Experimentation is so important! I also think style gets misunderstood quite a lot. Your style is more than just the aesthetic quality, it's your interests, your identity, and what you're naturally drawn to. Taking the time to explore means you're also exploring what brings you the most joy during the process ~
I have been drawing probably since I could hold a pencil. It has always been my favourite thing to do, but for the past few years I have almost completely stopped, and having young children takes all my energy. And I haven't been inspired to create, however I have been feeling the pull again, and I am slowly getting back to it. I have noticed that muscle memory has stored all of it, and getting back to it almost feels like no time has passed since I was drawing. Some days I struggle more than others but I think that's normal. I want to be consistent, but my mind puts more stress and pressure into it, like you said, I feel like I need to improve as quickly as possible so I can start making money from my art. But I don't want it to feel like that, I want to do it because I love it...
I also have no style 😅
Im in my 30s with no art style either! I have an art honours degree with a concentrations in painting, sculpture, and history… and I kind of love it. I can create so freely and get inspiration from so many artists with different styles, and I don’t feel beholden to sticking with one. I got a multidisciplinary degree so I ended up not making art for work so that is very freeing as well, if I’m not feeling creative I don’t have to create. I have had a massive amount of creative energy lately so have been working on some digital drawings I plan to paint in oils as a series.
You drawing is your style. You can't find it.
It takes me around 1-2 months to concept and create new original oil paintings. This means I only create around 6 new pieces a year. I have received pressure online to create more, but when I’ve made the mistake of bullying my creativity I quickly descend into a bad relationship with myself. Art is like nature, it needs time to slowly grow and bloom when it’s ready.
I looked at your art on instagram, wow! The colors are stunning, you are so talented, you create beautiful art!
@@natatattful Oh wow, that's so nice and unexpected! Thank you for taking the time to look me up and I'm so glad it resonates. ❤
Somewhere along the way, many of us forgot that the reason we make art is because we have fun making art. The demands of social media got us to forget that, and it stopped being about "am I having fun" and turned to "am I going fast enough and putting out enough work?"
I think it's part of the art journey to wrestle with this, and it was a big step in my development. I finally made peace with myself and my art and, for the past two years or so, have gotten back to making art because I enjoy myself doing it. Often, I feel like I spend hours to create work that I just throw into the void to a world that doesn't care - and that feeling has become liberating. I'm no longer making art for others - I'm making it for me and then sharing it with others.
What a beautiful journey.
Being okay with creating slowly is something I've slowly been coming to terms with. Realizing you can just take your time and enjoy the process is so freeing!
“Let yourself exist slowly.” I love this so much. I’m disabled and have a family and I just cannot keep up no matter how hard I’ve tried. I’ve been more patient with myself because
I don’t want to burn out so I’ve accepted that posting a video a week is likely too lofty of a goal for me. The hobby thing has really helped me too. Thank you for promoting slow art and sharing your wisdom.
Yes! Slow is okay! I'm a slow artist and a slow starter in the morning. I am only just accepting that for me, productivity is not productive until early afternoon. I would like to develop a routine for my mornings that allows me to ease into the day, allow me some time for self-care, and sets me up for a successful afternoon. I'm thrilled to here that a 3 hour routine is helpful for someone else. Slow starts are so much more enjoyable and being able to do so with less guilt sounds wonderful. .
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS!!! I just wrote an article about ways we can cultivate a creative community that's closer to what I think a lot of us want it to be. So many of us pursued art because we wanted a slower, more fulfilling life instead of a fast-paced competitive career and sometimes it feels like the art industry is just as fast-paced and competitive as corporate-life now.
I'm so glad I found your channel!
This was a lovely reminder to be kind do yourself on your own journey. It felt like just the thing I needed to hear today.
Me too! It has such deep implications. Not just pertaining to art. But to life overall . I definitely needed the reminder 😍
Love this. I take to heart the 'slow is fast' mantra. If I work fast, then I know something is wrong and not only that, it sets off my carpal tunnel and then I can't even draw anymore at that point.
This is something I realized only recently and I'm so happy to see that other people see things like me. I feel like I've been "in a rush" for the majority of my life until I understood the value of being present and doing things slowly. It's not only WAY more enjoyable, but it's the only time I've been able to actually make progress in my art. So yeah, agree 100%.
im a slow artist myself. im glad to find someone like me. appreciate your words
Overjoyed to meet a fellow ‘slow’ artist! Hustle culture is overrated. 🌞
Speaking on a more positive note, thank you so much for acknowledging that one routine may work for one person but not for another. There's no definitive answer to "doing things right" whether is in art, morning routines, excercise, heck anything really (except for health and sciences, that's a given). Whenever someone tells me "this is the only way to do stuff" I apply the 'X to doubt' attitude with that person because I can already tell they are either forceful or missinformed
YES. the hobbies. this is why hiking is such a crucial part of my practice! rad video!
This is what I need at this moment. I often feel like I'm not good enough and not creating fast enough. I just need to realize what works for me, stop comparing myself to others, and just enjoy the process. Thank you for the reminder!
Thank you for this reminder. I've been making art since I could hold a pencil and its been only recently that I realized there truly isn't rules to art. I don't have to like everything I make. If an old sketch bothers me enough, I paint over it. Try new techniques because there will always be another page to try out others. I have to remind myself often in order to not get stressed, but even that shows that art is much more than just ink and paper. Emotion is tied so deeply with art, that's what makes it so beautiful and individualistic
This video is so validating for me since I also value going slowly and mindfully (with art and with life in general) and you’ve articulated it so well. Thank you! Subscribed! 😊
This convinced me to make an entire separate playlist on youtube (i NEVER make playlists), just for art videos. I'm a graphic designer and didn't go to school for art or design - so I feel a lot of pressure from myself to improve and learn quickly (which I do!). But taking things SLOWLY and understanding that nobody is born being excellent, and knowing that things take time - it's a constant reminder that I need. Thank you for reminding me!
I absolutely love your suggestion of being more intentional on social media by meaningfully interacting with content -- as an artist who relies on social media I feel like I can't avoid it entirely but this is such a nice way to "put the social back in social media" as you say
Thank you for this video. I needed it. I’m a poet, and I work slowly as well. I am still trying to get out of this extreme creative burnout because I expected myself to “hustle and grind” and do everything perfectly all the time, kind of like you were saying happened to you. It’s just not me. The standards I had for myself were way too high. I still feel self conscious about not being as “productive” as others in several areas of my life, but this video helped me. It made me feel less alone in my “slow creative process”.
This video made me feel a lot more validated in being slow at art. I work full time so it can be hard to make art quickly. I really appreciate the reminder that it's ok to slow down and that it isn't a race.
I really like the point about stopping to engage with the art you see online. So many artists put a lot of time, effort, and thought into pieces that will just be scrolled over
I love the idea of existing slowly. Thanks for sharing!
I never thought about how mindless scrolling on social media as something that takes away from the “social” aspect of it. I really like your tips on slowing down to actually interact with people and build a more positive communication and connection between artists. So thank you for making this video, it inspired me to comment when I usually never do!
I'm a 35 year old artist and in my slow living era. Definitely resonate with reclaiming our hobbies, I'm making plans to go skating more often and even take some classes to learn how to skate backwards and do dances and stuff! I've also been scaling back social media and I love the idea to leave three comments and actually engage! ❤
I’ve been feeling this same calling to slow down, get off screens, and engage with more long form content this year. There’s a lovely sense of permanence from that format that’s a refreshing contrast to how temporary social media creation feels these days. I like to think of it as investment in creative longevity, even if it’s the longer duration I get to enjoy creating it, but also perhaps the amount of time that art exists in the world. Thanks for sharing.💗
Thank you for this video! I've been trying to be more mindful slowing down and just looking, hearing, feeling the nature and things around me. My issue with my art is never thinking its good enough, or what's the point?! I have to tell myself my art, at least for now, is for me no one else. As an art witch its a big part of my practice. I am realizing that my methods and results only need to make sense to me!💜🌱
people like you are the reason I still have faith in the art community. Thank you for sharing, love the perspective and reflection
The hidden life of the trees YESS!! It is on my reading list!! Thank u for the video, take care💗💗
as an aspiring author who has been going through consistent cycles of burnout, this video was really helpful to me & a great reminder 🥺 thank you for sharing 🌷🤍🌷
I really loved this positive and honest reflection! Felt some real similarities with the burnout you mentioned.
"actually i don't dream of labour" love that so much! Also, made me laugh because it's so true!
Thanks a lot for this. I'm trying to be kinder to myself because I often get impatient about my art progress and when I see people around my age or younger on the internet making GORGEOUS illustrations while I'm still having to practice my fundamentals makes me very envious and self-critical. Like I'm falling behind.
Also, I'll take the tip of putting the social back in social media and interact more with other artists.
Thanks a lot.
i love your earrings!! this video was so sweet and a really necessary reminder for me. i’ve been so busy and burnt out recently that now as i’m trying to get back into creating, i’m taking that restless/busybody energy with me and it’s making me feel so rough. thank you for this reminder and reassurance that it’s alright to take it slow
your plea at the end for us all to please make art honestly made me a little emotional. thank you for sharing your perspective on this, it was honestly much appreciated and i feel really validated! and i hope others do too
Thank God for the slow artists. Hassle culture over rated.
I meant hustle😊
Hassle/hustle - kinda interchangeable! 😊 And I agree 100%! ❤
As an artist just finally getting into RUclips/Patreon, your videos have been so inspiring. I am very much a slow artist, it’s my process, and it reflects how I live. I definitely relate to all of this! Especially in the day and age of posting an original piece everyday
this is exactly what i needed to hear. so many of your msgs landed like a healing balm for my soul… gentle reminders that it’s okay to move slowly. thank you so much for sharing your heart and process.
This video is so helpful and insightful. I'm far from where I want to be as an artist and from time to time I get impatient so I try to spend more of my time doing art but it just doesn't feel like it's working, and I actually feel a lot more miserable. I already know that I should have a life outside art, but I know I also need reminders so thank you so much for this video! Slow and steady :)
as someone who is still in art school, this video was really helpful to me! Ever since I got accepted into my top school of choice, I couldn't have been happier, but as the years progressed I feel like I've gotten more insecure about not being "talented enough." Not that I'm not grateful for having this opportunity, but I think it's important for artists to realize that their health is just as important as the art they create and their improvements.
Lately, I was constantly in a hurry somewhere, I wanted to do a million things at once, but your video calmed me down and convinced me that it is okay to do things calmly and have rest or idleness if it is necessary. I’ll gain strength and sit calmly and peacefully to draw
Working slow has been the best for me. Before social media created more demanding algorithms in order to force us to create more content for their platforms in order to even have an opportunity to have our art seen by others, I use to take my time making things for myself. If I blasted through an art piece it was because I was in zone, not because I had to meet unrealistic deadlines mired in this NEED FOR MORE CONTENT. A couple years ago I got intense burnt out after failing to finish a comic commission I got (they gave me ridiculous deadlines and the other artists who was supposed to to help me abandoned me without saying anything, I never heard anything from the client so I burned myself out for nothing) and I’ve never been the same since. It got so painful that even if my spirit wanted to draw, I felt mentally and physically overwhelmed even looking at art hurt. Then AI Art happened and that overwhelming feeling only got worse as I spiraled into depression. I decided that I wouldn’t do art as a career anymore and that was heartbreaking for me, being an artist is my childhood dream. Thankfully this year things have been changing. I got a job doing graphic design for a company that works with other artists and my boss is so sweet and kind and being able to be creative again and not having to worry about money has given me the energy to make art again. This time though I’m being selfish with me art, it’s just for my eyes only until I’m ready to share my art with the world at my own pace ❤️
This video has been very validating! I've been feeling a very similar way and I keep telling myself to slow down, take a step back, and enjoy the life I have.
Thank you for sharing this, it’s so refreshing to hear you perspective on going slow. It truly resonated, as slow human just trying to live a sustainable healthy life. Keep going at your own pace and enjoy being present
This is such a helpful reminder since I’m poor and I love to make art. I don’t want to push myself more than I do but I want to create a space for me to be creative that doesn’t involve too much effort because I’m trying to “stick to the grind”. Great video!!!
Socials are so fast paced and it's such a relief to accept that we're allowed to be slow and value our enjoyment and spoons more than speed 💜
Your video is exactly what i need to hear today. I am a slow artist and thought it was really bad, but now I see that there’s many other people like me. Thanks for sharing your experience ❤
It really brought some calm and ease into myself after watching this video and reading the comments because I couldn't agree more! I have been into drawing since I was a toddler, but started practicing art "non-stop" since I turned around sixteen. I'm twenty now and I recall putting so much pressure and hurry onto my shoulders because other's my age already have really developed skills at art, I want to get there so hard and so quick... The fact i'm algo this kind of hyper-perfectionist that It really had made it difficult for me to just draw or paint for fun. There's always so much to learn, and don't get me wrong I love learning about art, but I would often force myself to keep study rather than actually drawing because "i'm not good enough to do this yet." That type of mindset is so self-destructive it can take away all the joy from the process. I'm a slow artist, really, I get like very tired after a few sketches or just by a single draw, yet putting it to perspective i'm almost drawing 2 hours per day besides my art classes; my skills may not be as great as I want them to be yet, but that doesn't means i'm not improving. Some people will say more = better, but that's not entirely true, specially when we're not really learning anything nor enjoying what we are doing.
Right now i'm trying to get to terms with it, being kinder to myself and just go with the flow, accept i'm not as fast as this world wants me to be and knowing that that's okay anyways, it's fine. I'm still learning and i'm having a great time doing so.
Yes for slow! I’ve been through a couple of burnouts so yeah, slow is how I go now.
This is such a needed video amidst the sea of advice to produce as much as possible as fast as possible. I’ve tried forcing myself to create and made myself miserable. Thanks so much for all your advice!
I just began taking weekly art classes and appreciate you for discussing slow progress. It’s purely a hobby and I want to keep it that way. Maybe a commissioned piece once or twice a year. I want to always ENJOY my work. Thanks!
you look amazing in yellow and orange!!! and I totally agree I'm not built for the hustle bustle I like to take my time and not feel rushed 😭😭
Thank you so much for this video! When I first started learning to draw during the pandemic, I posted on social media for my friends family to see and suddenly everyone was asking in some way about monetizing it. I felt such pressure to continue to make finished pieces that I just stopped posting and stepped away from art for a bit. Now I'm back taking classes for me, and working on projects for myself and doin hobbies bc they are enjoyable ❤
Thanks for the tree metaphor. The next song I have been working on has been the longest I have taken, but I have known that there are deep changes and growth needed to hold up this heavy art piece. It is helpful to see people speak to the necessity of that process instead of just putting out content to remain relevant.
Thank you for sharing! It’s great to have this perspective around enjoying the process of art ❤
Thank you for this video, I’ve been trying to make this change recently in my art practice, this video is really concise and the that hack to log out of each app is so good ! 😊
I'm about to be mom and I know many things will have to be set aside these next few years which is very hard for me. I needed to hear this, thank you. ✨
Thank you so much for this kind video, it's so relatable with the things I'm thinking and living in this moment of my life. I've finished my college's studies last year and after that it was the first time in my life that I really stopped for a moment and could give myself some time to think differently. I've always worked and studied since I was a teen, so a could pay the bills and help my family, and now that I've some time to myself, I finally could also give me some time and space to understand my art, my process and myself. It was so important to me when you said that we have more than ours technical skills to show with our art ❤️ thank you again and I hope you have a lovely journey ✨
Truly needed to hear this message (again)! Thank you for sharing!! Being on the receiving end of high volume art content is equally hard, thinking that I should be working as fast as them (all of them, all the time). Obviously, it’s impossible, so hearing your message made me take a breath and remember that slow is good 😊
The tree analogy changed me😭 Thankyou so much for this video it was needed!💛
This is so well needed, ty for this reminder (and the social media tips seems rly useful too I might try a few)! I used to be a fast-paced, super motivated artist but inevitably burnt out as fast as my motivation came. Learning how to slow down again in this demanding world feels so necessary now!
I needed to hear this as I'm sure many others do too. Giving myself the space to be less productive somehow in turn makes me more productive. Thank you for sharing your perspective and advice. This was really nice and helpful to hear.
Keep going and keep being self motivated. I am happy I found your video. Self-care and self-compassion is so important!
Omg I am so glad I came across you! I have been in a big ole rut - felt super disappointed that I’m not able to be superwoman, working full time and trying to make art. Thank you! ❤
I feel like I finally found someone who I can really relate to. I struggle a lot with the same types of challenges and I think I want to implement some of your struggles as well so thank you you are awesome
Wow, I really needed this perspective! I’m definitely taking your words to heart and trying to slow down and be kind to myself about where I’m at as an artist. I put so much pressure on myself to be perfect that it often stops me from even trying. 2024 is definitely the year I’m going to challenge that thinking.
I definitely feel that! Perfectionism is a habit of thinking that's seriously hard to break. Wishing you good luck on your own art journey!! 💕
I just discovered you through this video. You are so genuine. I really enjoyed listening to you and I find your observations to be very calming. Thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos!
Honestly this video is a breath of fresh air and one that was very necessary. I find that as someone who very well may have adhd, I find it very difficult to focus, sit still, always on the go and that definitely translates into my art and feeling like I'm not progressing fast enough. I find it really difficult to slow down, but even more so to identify when I need to slow down. I'm going to definitely put into place some of the habits you suggested, I especially like the one with parameters for viewing short form content (leaving X amount of comments and watching every video the whole way through). It makes the whole process more intentional and I think I'd definitely be pickier with the content I view if I knew I had to watch the whole video. I must say I do love your aesthetic, the oranges and yellows look gorgeous on you. I also adore your sketching style. I think that also being a slower artist, you will find that by focusing on more intentional posting and content, you'll attract an audience who will support that. One of the reasons I clicked on your video were because I loved the aesthetic, but I also loved that you were promoting a slower practice where you're more intentional. I look forward to seeing you put out more content, but please always focus on doing only what you love and what is sustainable for you. 🌻✨
Thank you so much for watching and I really appreciate that!! I'm so glad that it was able to resonate with you and I hope more of us can normalize the value of slow growth and learning 🧡
This is exactly what I needed to hear today. Thank you for helping me allow myself to really relish making art and living life
I'm glad the algorithm showed me your video today! I coincidentally do my makeup the same way as you have it in this video with the yellow inner corner and orange shadow. I enjoyed your chat!
Thanks for sharing. This slower approach to life and art definitely resonates with me.
love this. thanks for the wisdom.
and normalising a 3hr morning routine😁
my vibe x
move slow and find your flow
Thank you so much for making this video! I was in the routine of sketching multiple times a day until I had to move and my art supplies got packed and have not been unpacked yet in 2-3 months. This video is inspiring me to get my art stuff put away and unpacked, and starting that routine again. I also can’t wake up early, can’t post consistently, and struggle with too high of expectations for myself. I needed this video.
fellow slow artist here! loved everything you had to say in this vid, thanks so much for making this!
This is the realest, most relatable video I've seen in a long time!!!
I've been feeling really regretful and bitter about my art practice recently and this video feels like a warm hug. I normally avoid art content because it reminds me of my regrets, but I this is one of the few I felt better after watching. Thank you
Never have I ever watched a more relatable video. Are you me? ☺️
i usually do not like this style of video but i like the way u spoke in this one. good video thank you for your thoughts 🤍
Fantastic advice, thanks for sharing your thoughts & feelings on working with your natural rythms in creativity 🎨 and life! 💃 Plus, how to make artistic growth sustainable 🌱 Love ,love, love! 😊❤️🧡💛
This video was so cozy and comforting 🩷 Thank you so much for spreading positivity, it was so uplifting to hear you talk about slow art!
Love this! I would love to hear more about your morning routine! I have one but feel I may want to change it up a bit &/or add as mine is shorter than yours.
I also need to be slow but sometimes feel impatient with my progress. I try to do a lot & go for a few days, then I want to keep being productive, then I crash & can’t do anything, then I feel frustrated instead of having a regular pace.
Your message is the one i need. Subscribed. Thank you so much!!
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to hear more about your morning routine - your experience sounds so similar to mine, and I have not been able to make my routine
I love this. This is so wholesome. This is the kind of content we need 🥰🥰
thank you for mentioning the greyscale setting! it makes a world of a difference!
If it make you feel better I wake up between 11am and 1pm, don’t start work until 4pm. Never stop work before 3am (where I really have to drag myself away!). People might think I’m lazy but my work hours are good, my home is clean and tidy.
i can make myself pump out digital art pretty quickly but if i’m honest with myself that’s just not what i’m interested in making. i’ve been lille scared to admit that my real artistic passion is fiber arts because of how slow they go. i never update my art socials because it takes a number of months for me to finish a single cross stitch piece and i’m scared of never being able to create a community around it. but cross stitch is my greatest artistic love and i want people to see how beautiful it can be
Love the tree analogy ❤
I love your hair and makeup
I struggle so much with feeling like my identity as a musician is so deeply tied to my sense of self that it's hard to separate and remember that there are many other aspects to who I am. It's partially because I truly do feel like music is my life's purpose--and I enjoy it of course, so that makes burnout REALLY difficult to deal with.
For many years my feelings towards social media were like "don't go there, it's a trap" but now I realized I actually have to be there to make my art noticed (long way there haha). I get your point. When I decided to avoid social media and not use my phone at all I was way more productive and creative. Wishing you all the best on your art journey!
Thank you so much for making this video🦋✨I have chronic fatigue and it is so challenging to make art quickly. Sometimes I get so frustrated at my body’s limitations, but I am trying to accept that moving at a pace that’s best for me will be the most sustainable in the long run. 🙏🏽❤️🔥
Thank you for posting this... thank you thank you thank you. I REALLY needed to hear this right now. 💖
I did not expect this to hit so hard but I really needed to hear this today. Thank you
When i first got into drawing in high school i got burnt out so easy to keep up with my 2 friends that would get masterpieces out in a few hours it felt like (it really took them days but i didn't realize that). So i grew out of practicing because i wasn't improving in my art and felt stressed over the quick process turnaround i was forcing on myself. Now at 32 I'm teaching myself to learn the basics and I'm falling in love with art again because i have no one to prove myself to but myself and i feel like I'm actually good at it finally.
I've never seen this much wisdom packed into a 19-minute presentation. The process is definitely working. 😊 Love the social media tips and tree analogy too.
Unrelated, your look - beautiful tropical flower in a cozy little garden 😍
This was such a relatable video. I’m also coming to terms that I’m a “slower” artist, I think. Also trying to find more hobbies to fill my time and embracing boredom and not so much mindless scrolling. I also really like the idea of intentionally engaging with social media posts (I’m try to do that now with this comment lol). Thank you for sharing!
you don’t know how much i needed to see this. tbh maybe i need a break from consuming content as well
Thank you so much for this lovely video! I have been feeling kinda dissapointed, as I am currently working with my mom, creating things with cross stitch decoration, and I really like it but it takes some time to get the orders completed. I started comparing us to another people, and how fast marketing works now days and I really hate it, because it feels like you have to be on that level of massive production to get richer but that as an artist just does not feel right. Art is a human ability to create things that can make others feel something when they see it, that is why we take our time to get them done, as everything is on the details.
However, I know that to some people it has worked creating something in massive production, I feel like that definetly depends on the product you are offering as the process might be easier or faster than others and that is okay. The general issue to me is that life now seems to go so fast that any minute that you use in yourself instead of working feels bad, as it seems as time wasted. We might be our own boss but we also have to let ourselves have human rights , if that makes sense (?) hehe. Again, this was a helpful video and made me feel better so thank youu💗
