Helen, there is nothing wrong with your voice, it is calm and very therapeutic to listen to. You speak clear and I have never heard you slur your words. I love your videos and when I need some quite soothing time you are my go to person to listen to. So you stay true to you, we love you xx❤
Your planning videos are the only ones I watch anymore. I appreciate your calm demeanor. For me I get overwhelmed with loud voices and loud noises. Thank you for being you💜
Every time I’m struggling with being overstimulated, I watch some of your videos. They’re such a great comfort. Hopefully the strike comes to resolution soon.
Helen, I have been watching your RUclips channel since 2015 (prior to your store launch when you did bullet journaling and doodled). I have witnessed your growth as a creator and as a business woman and have enjoy every minute of content you upload. You have gone through so much, and it's been such a joy to be along for the ride. You inspire me in so many ways (not only in journaling, but being a perpetual student, always working hard, and trying your best, etc). Your voice is your own in many ways, and you do not need to change it for anyone. Please keep being yourself! To quote the show Arcane (which I'm currently obsessed with): "You're perfect." ❤
Omg thank you SO much Melissa 🥹 No pun intended, thank you for sticking with me!! Thank you also for taking the time to encourage me. I appreciate you more than you know, and I am screenshotting this comment for future reference 😅 Have a wonderful week ahead!
Thank you so much for sharing Helen! I am sorry you feel like you constantly need to explain personal aspects of your life, like how you speak, because I love the calming experience of watching your videos. I get louder and louder the more excited I get…. We all are so unique which is awesome! I vow to celebrate our uniqueness!
Another wonderful video - thank you! I, too, find your voice calming & soothing. And don’t worry about have one of ‘those moments’ occasionally; happens to all of us. Love you & your channel! ❤️🌹
Helen I wanted to tell you how much this last sub box meant to me. I had to suddenly leave my home after there was a fire upstairs two weeks ago. My place has smoke damage and I won't be returning. I have a new place lined up and I'm safe and OK. I was able to retrieve some of my journaling implements and some pens and things from my apartment but the sub box was delivered three days after I moved to a hotel. It took more than a week before I found my focus to sit down and do some journaling but the sub box seemed to have all the right things for me to do an amazing monthly set up in my Line A Day journal. It really grounded me when I was walking around like a zombie in a daze from the events. Perfect 4 washi tapes for what I needed 🙌
Helen, you are such an inspiration and a gem of a person! Thank you for these small glimpses into your life. As another small business owner it’s so nice to see. All the best to you. 🫶🏻🫶🏻
I adore your voice! I look forward to your new video so much because after watching them I'm always in a calm, peaceful good mood. I appreciate you explaining but I hope you never try to change ❤
I’ve never thought anything about your narrator style because it’s being done at the same time you’re concentrating on writing & planning. Always seemed natural way to be speaking to me
Love watching your plan with mes. I hope the canada post strike gets resolved soon. I watched a lot of english movies when i was younger so that's how I learned grammar.
I feel like when I watch your videos you are so poise and your words come out so clear and beautifully as opposed to myself where I stumble on my words almost every time because my mind works faster than my speech 😅
Would it be wrong if I said I think you’re perfect?! ❤your videos are so very inspiring, honestly. You have a gift and believe others struggle with that ❤ I’m always wondering what mine is… I’m a mama of two and live check to check…brain is full ALL OF THE TIME, I have struggled for ages now trying to find the proper system that will work for me in regard to what’s important to me for a season. I have worked hard in the past few weeks, I have turned my new weeks hobo in to a meal log/mood tracker, I have purchased a cheaper journal from Walmart to log and journal for my kids and their days and my cousin is my main for all functional planning and journaling for the daily pages… you are one that’s inspired me that’s it CAN work❤ bless you Helen and we are thankful for you and your creativity and work!
Apart from usual schooling, I never specifically studied grammar. I did, however, read a LOT! All my life. Reading extensively helped me develop a wide vocabulary and a good understanding of grammar 😊
Not speaking much is so common for those of us who are neurodivergent. Sometimes I can’t even think about talking to people. I just can’t understand why people feel the need to bring it up. Like we’re all different and they can just… you know, not mention it? Also phrasing difficulties, I absolutely understand, and English is my native language. I really love watching you plan, it’s very relaxing to see you put your plans on paper and writing with your lovely pens 😍
I always look forward to watching your videos bec Sun is a time for me to relax (eventho I do laundry & iron my scrubs this day), watching you while ironing is always my routine. It's a bit late today but still part of my relaxing Sun routine. Pls restock your collab inks again & brass clips pls.
Ahh thank you so so much!! Hehe I will remember this now ^_^ And yes yes you got it. I have 1 batch of ink left for this year, and brass clips for early 2025!!
Don't feel badly about your use of grammar and vocabulary. I grew up in a family where proper vocabulary and verb tense was stressed. I find that most people that I know sound illiterate to me. Believe me, your Grammer and vocabulary are perfectly fine. Best way to help improve your language skills is to read english fiction writers who just write well. To me I find that your amazing work speaks for itself. Never apologize for being who you are. Others criticism, they should just look in the mirror. I too have suffered from the habit of self criticism, it’s destructive and pointless. In the words of the late Ricky Nelson: you can't please everyone so you might as well please yourself. I am an American senior and I find your accomplishments impressive and awe inspiring. You just be you. 😊
Another great video helen! Thank you for taking the time to do this 🙌. It’s funny you mentioned veg soup. I guess it’s that time of year b/c that’s what I made for dinner. Found a great recipe on a pkg of whole foods split peas. It was so good. Hope yours was too 🫶
I always appreciate the way you speak and your grammar. You then say you need to work ok your grammar. My reaction 😮 how bad is my grammar that I've been amazed with yours and you think yours needs improvement 🤯
I've been spinning around on this earth for over five decades speaking English as my native language, and I have done a fair bit of grammar study too. And I get exactly the same brain farts over expressions like that. I think these kinds of glitches are normal!
Dear Helen, regarding the issues for speaking, working with a speech pathologist may be transformative for you quality of life, for they may be able to diagnose something that us laypeople cannot forecast. Also, regarding help with English, keeping a common-place-type journal to take notes while you are reading has been of great help for me personally when it comes to getting a better grasp of linguistic mechanisms. A great writer to start off with may be James Baldwin and his Essay Collections. His introspective writing may lend itself well to these types of videos as well.
I am Team Relaxation! ❤ I hope your cutting machine is feeling better! *hugs* Thank you for saying that there needs to be discomfort first. I forget. I also forget that everyone is on their own timeline, and no two lives look alike. I have one untracked order, but I'm fine with having to wait a little while. I believe in workers being paid what they are worth and receiving benefits they deserve. But I'm sad it is making business difficult for you. ❤ I hope you have a fantastic week! 😊 P.S. Your English is better than a lot of native speakers. Which is your dominant (first) language? Chinese or Japanese?
Love you to infinity and beyond. Going to a speech pathologist might be worth it Baby Bear. I had a friend’s dad who has Parkinson’s and his speech was getting to a point where he could barely be heard. He went to a speech pathologist for 2 weeks and he can now speak and be heard while doing so.
Ahhh this is inspiring to hear!! I never considered that and I'm aleady searching up speech pathologists in my area lol. I get frustrated when talking so hopefully this helps!!! Love you more
I strive to plan like you! I’ve been trying to do so for over 2-3 years now😅 I usually stop planning because I get busy or I can’t find a planning method that works for me. I really hope this upcoming year is my planing year!😊 if anyone has any tips please share them🙌🏽
I have a few orders with you I’m not worried I know they will get to me when they need too I’m from uk so use to a bit of a wait I’d rather they be safe with you Helen until they can be shipped no need to worry sending lots of hugs to all Canadian post people ❤xx
Lol the internet is funny 😅 people will say on things online that they would never say to your face. Your voice sounds 'normal' to me! I get people tell me that my accent is horrible and I shouldn't speak in my videos! Haha.
Im genuinely surprised how much the words “I think there offten needs to be a period of discomfort for changes to happen.” acted as a balm for my soul as a queer disabled woman who is now terrified to continue living in America.
I think you sound how you do in real life! Also, do you mean "I wouldn't change anything about it?" When talking about your designing multiple things at one time?
Hi! Please feel free to send an email to ask about your orders! We don't know how long the strike will go on, as it could just be a few days. But we have several options to offer our customers in the case that this lasts much longer!
My (ex)boyfriend and I broke-up last year 😅 The friend I'm referring to is actually my friend! Although, I use to refer to my ex as a friend on social media just for privacy reasons 😊 It's not typical!
