Oh my god I’ve never related to something more in my LIFE! I just turned 25 and honestly I’m scared and a bit lost. Trying to be healthy, grow mentally and compete in this hustle culture has swallowed me whole and I’m just now learning how to live the life I want to live for ME. I’m just thankful I’m not the only one who felt this way 💜
I’m watching this in my 30’s and I can honestly say I’m so much happier now than I was in my 20’s 😂💗 I’m a single mom and currently in the nursing program! 👩🏻⚕️ You’re such an inspiration, I love your channel Miki 🙌🏼✨
This video is amazing. 20’s are tough. It’s the point in life where you are trying to figure out what to do with it. Afraid of many things. Am I going to be successful? Is this really what I want to do for the rest of my life? It’s soooo stressful. Definitely, mental health is REALLY important. Your own thoughts can either make you or break you. be strong and stay positive! ❤️
"Setting boundary with Asian parents" Yes!! me too!! I never knew others felt this way too!! And you gave words to what I've been recently struggling with!
I'm 19 and I've never been so nervous in my entire life. So I told myself I'll try to watch more about life lessons and try to at least be prepared when turning 20. Thank u so much for this video 💝
just broke up with my bf bc he didnt respond to any of my texts/calls for almost a month. and i think the hardest lesson i learnt was that just because something is familiar and comfortable, doesn't mean it's right for you. letting go of someone you love will hurt so badly but in weeks/months to come, it will be for the better esp if that person you love isn't giving what they've been taking from you.
I have literally been stressing so much recently as I feel like I’m not where I “should” be at this point in my 20s so this video couldn’t have come at a better time. I cannot wait to watch this and hopefully change my mindset 😭💜
I'm currently 20, about to turn 21 in a couple months, and this vlog/video is something I can relate too! Miki, you're an inspiration & I look up to you as my role model, not just as a nurse but daily things where we can all relate to at least one thing! I've been following you on ig and yt for about 2 years or so, and I'm happy how far you have come throughout the years! Thank you for your hard work & I love you and always supporting you!!~~ 🥰❤❤
Everything happens for a reason. There are some people that you will meet along the way that will teach you things or make you start the things that you've been putting off to live the life you've been dreaming of. You won't vibe with everyone that you meet so just be you & everything will fall into place in its right time.
Lesson I learned so far (about mental health and life speed): I'm 22 and I'm already burned out with how fast my life was. It's been four months and I'm still trying to recover. Sometimes it is so painful to see how my friends get going with theri life. Meanwhile, I feel like I am stuck in time. It frustrated me to the point that I think my burn out almost turned into depression. My physical health deteriorates. And only then, I decided to give it a time. I pushed my project back, refused several job offers, and put off my goals and ambitions. I am not fully recovered yet. I am still learning how to manage myself around this condition. But one thing changed after I decided to give my psychological condition a time. I became more accepting and some of my perspectives began to change as well. I used to think how unfortunate it was to get burned out when I was only 22, the age where I am supposed to get my life together. But now, I began to think about how fortunate I was to learn this lesson about mental health early in my 20s, so that I should not let myself fall into the same hole when I get to my 30s, 40s, and later life. Yes, life is a marathon and not a sprint. But this hustle culture makes it seems like you have to sprint to get to your destination. And I was just like that for a few years. A year ago, I was wondering when should I stop and catch a break. This burn out and depression is not the kind of break I was thingking of, but I might as well transform it to be the break I deserved. Back then I was thinking of going back running at full speed after my break. But now, all I think is how I want to restart my life and start my marathon again after catching a break. I decided that rather than resuming my sprint, I will slow things down, and use my own life speed with cleaner and healthier slate to continue my journey.
This was is exactly what I needed I feel like I’m constantly moving towards what’s next instead of being mindful of what’s happening now and being appreciative of how far I’ve come. Appreciative of this video.
I’m turning 22 and born&raised in the South Bay. I always found myself relating to you and this video, especially, resonated with me because I feel so lost right now during my final semesters of college. I’m stressed af applying to internships and trying to find the next opportunity. 😭 It’s been a pleasure being able to see you grow the past few years, thank you for documenting your journey and sharing it with all of us.
I’m 20 but i relate to this wholesome video so much 🥺💕 I’m at a point in my life where I am confused and I don’t really know what I should do for a better purpose 😢 thanks for this video miki!
I loved this! I resonate so much because I just turned 30 this year. I wish I had watched this video in my 20’s. Everything from setting Asian parents boundaries to addressing the fact that I didn’t even think about self care in my 20’s. It became evident that I was feeling the all time low in late 20’s, that I couldn’t wait to turn 30! The little habits matter so much, and now that I’m realizing this, it’s never too late to start!
I guess 20s have its charms where you’d lost your way and learn more about yourself at the same time. Being a mother in my 20s and I lost myself there, I felt like shit all the time but the more I fell deeper into despair and depression, I have realized that no one will ever save me and my daughter doesn’t deserve that version of myself. That’s why I turned my life around. Started to read and empower myself, and learned to take more care of myself. Strengthen your mind and love the life that you live😊 when you start doing so, the rest will follow.
Really enjoyed the video. You and Kevin are so much further along and more together than I was when I was in my 20s. I can say hands down, my most favorite decade was my 50s. I had gotten past all the "making it" part of my life and could begin to really enjoy life to the fullest. Focus on my second career, which is all about passion instead of a paycheck and 9 to 5. As long as I keep my health, I expect my 60s to be good, as well. So, something to look forward to.
I’m turning 25 in under 3 months and I’m feeling this. After just studying what my parents always wanted me to study, and what I think I wanted to study and throwing myself into my classwork …I’m realising I need to pave my own way in life now by myself without professors telling me what to do, it’s scary and exciting but my mind is always rushing
I have been stressing out since I’m in a nursing school, overwhelmed, depression sometimes. I really enjoyed this video it has been help me out a lot. I feel like I can fixed thing so I won’t be burn out. And this video has inspired me so much! Thank you Miki! You’re a person who I always want to look up to ❤️❤️❤️❤️
My favorite videos of yours are the one where you recommended the subtle art of not giving a f*ck and atomic habits (I read all the books you talked about!) and this video right now. I’m 18 so it’s really great to learn from someone just ahead of me on the road of life how to make my future as fulfilling as possible ❤️ it’s kind of like insider information about life lol it’s fascinating
I am 21 turning 22 soon in May and I could say this help me realize things a lot more in depth. 🤩 I needed to hear that it's normal to lose some friendships, I kept blame myself for the past few years because I thought something was wrong with me and why most of my "friends" didn't want to hang out or invite me to places. Thank you so much for this video. I REALLY APPRECIATE that someone out there UNDERSTAND the STRUGGLES in your 20s.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Mental health is significantly important , I have always stressed out about my mids ( I am studying pharmacy ) so when I just let go the anxious feelings and just focused on doing what I really can do at this moment I ended up with almost a full mark ! ( 19.5/20 ) Compared to my previous grades ( 9 - 14 / 20 ) Just remember to breathe and take a moment everything will fit in place at the right time , trust yourself and if something get wrong remember it is not the end of the world and you can fix it or simply leave it.
Im not in my 20s yet lol but I have learned that I dont need to be perfect, that just trying is enough sometimes. If it works out, great. If it doesnt, dont beat yourself up over it. Obviously this doesnt apply to EVERYTHING but it does to a lot of small everyday things ✨
I'm in my 20s and definitely feel the problems that you talked bout. It feels weird knowing ppl around you are engaged, getting married or having kids since I know I'm not there yet. It's always difficult when you do more for other people but thts why I learned from my older cousin that if someone gives you 20% of their energy or care, then you should do the same. You should never just say yes for everything since people will try to take advantage. I hope things do get better for you and keep these videos up🤚☮
Hi Miki! I’m in my teens, just turned 17 to be exact! I have never related more to someone when you talked about giving more in relationships than you receive back. I just lost all my friends because they stopped talking to me ever since I got cancer. Now I don’t know how to make new friends and I’m trying to restart 10th grade since my cancer held me back. I’m in remission and studying to become a traveling nurse. You are such a big inspiration and I can’t wait to grow with you even though you’re older than me 😅☺️
I'm a massage therapist and I want to thank you for this video! It's been really hard to prioritize my time to do stuff and I have so much on my plate as well. Hence, my mental health is the biggest issue of it all, and I'm in my late twenties. Thank you Miki!
wth literally just what i needed today right of this moment.... haven't seen my sparkle for so long and have been overextending myself for way too long... time to take a step back and pen down all my thoughts! thank you miki, this video was like the meditation i needed today :)
Thank you for sharing! I’ve related so much with what you’ve shared. Tried so hard to navigate my 20s but the biggest obstacle is myself and my mental health. Now I’m entering my 30s and found myself more at peace with who I am and who I should be. Loved the part of refocusing all the excess energy to improving oneself..Thank you! 😊
Really appreciate the effort you put into this video Miki. I turned 20 last year and somehow i always feel like I'm falling behind others, be it in case of academics, or socialising and going out. Like the FOMO is real whenever I see people living their "best lives" on social media. The biggest takeaway from this video for me was to focus on my mental health and build good habits ❤
This video has reached to the right people in the right time from the right person. Misery loves company, and knowing that I am not alone, there are others facing the same pressure and trying to self help is important . Lots of love ❤️
Thank you for this. I love your normal content, but I’m not going to lie your life looks perfect but it’s not, no one’s is! so although i enjoy your other content, it is just so nice to see you be vulnerable and let people know they aren’t alone.
Hey Miki! I think your video speaks the truth of how I am dealing with while entering into my thirties. The best part of your video that I found is that you need to find hobbies that are simple and enjoyable at the same time. Also, forming simple habits is also a great idea. I think you did a great job! Again, thank you for this video~ -Jenny, Taiwanese Canadian
I just turned 24! Current RN, My husband and I are planning to have a child this year, so I am getting ourselves more healthy physically and mentally. I am looking forward to pursue NP degree in the future. I cannot agree more about that morning routine is so important! I have to get him work on that together! :) other than that, I think you make a good point about not stressing to get as fast as we can, I worked so much OT this month to cover my tuition for critical care nursing certificate, and I am going to slow down and work regular hours next month. I hope to continue read more books and remain constant learning ! :-) thank you Miki and wish you a good day! Blessings :-)
I really liked your video! I really resonated with what you said about taking shortcuts and rushing through life. I don’t take enough care of my body, my mental health, and sleep because I prioritize my grades and other things above it. But I’m also trying to work on self care and making good habits
As someone currently also going through a quarter life crisis, I can honestly say that I like myself more now than precrisis me. I have learned a lot about myself and my relations with others. I have cut relations with people who don’t matter and greatly strengthened friendships with the people that do. I have learned to enjoy the journey and not just rush to the next destination in life and I feel that I still have more to learn before its over.
What a POWERFUL and motivating video! I thank you so much for this and made me second guess what I’m doing that could be harming! I’m not the type to watch videos like this but I am so glad I did. Thank you!!!
I'm almost 18 y/o (my bday is exactly in one month) and I'm hella scared to be an official adult, I feel I haven't done things that made me truly happy during my teenage life and is just frustrating and disappointing, but I guess the biggest lesson I have learned in my life is you are your best friend, you are the only one who is going to help you in everything, not your family, not your best friends, not your partner, you only have yourself in the end of the day and you should learn that you are always enough for yourself
Yes loved the video! I feel like I reassess my life every year. I'll turn 28 this year so I'm feeling societal pressure. We should try to enjoy the journey to get where we want to he too. God Bless! And here's to thriving at whatever age you're at!🥂❤💯
I really loved hearing your thoughts and feedback about your 20s. I appreciate the advice and will try to implement that into my life. I am 20. I turn 21 in July. I honestly feel lost at times. I’m currently doing nursing school. I sometimes question whether or not I’m on the right track. I tend to second guess myself a lot and question my capabilities. I honestly feel tired all the time. I don’t really have a lot of friends and I’m okay with that. I don’t like to party or drink. Most people my age that are around me think it’s weird I don’t want to nor have the desire to go out and party. I definitely feel more like a homebody. However, I wish I had more hobbies. I never know what to do for myself or what interests me anymore. There’s so much more I could say but thank you for this amazing video. You’re a strong woman and I appreciate your content and your advice.
Hi👋🏼, don't feel pressured into doing things you don't wanna do or feel comfortable with. Life will go on no matter what. Just take it a day at a time & the people who wants to stay in your life will no matter what. Just be you & keep discovering what makes you look forward to the every day life.
Loved this video! I just turned 20 recently and a lot of these things have been on my mind recently since I graduate in a week... Will definitely need to be mindful for being more rounded since I put a lot of pressure on myself + is very career-driven. Thanks for the tips Miki ❤
Idk how I could relate to you in a lot of ways. From bedside nursing to this. Especially the mental health part. Couldn't agree more. I took a few breakdowns before I realise and had been more aware of it. Thank you ❣️ for always being truthful.
im reaching my 20s this year and tbh im both scared and excited to grow up rn. like you, i feel like rushing everything to finally get to where i want to be, but as time passes im starting to get scared about getting older because i keep getting confused about myself and how im supposed to run my life. but thank you for the tips ate miki! apart from this you also inspired me to pursue nursing school :))
Definitely move at your own pace and seek balance more than perfection. Ensure that you get to know yourself and what you stand for as an individual so that you live for yourself and for things that genuinely matter to you, bring you peace of mind, and people that you love and make you feel loved.
the worst part of a person with a Master's degree. you get treated as Bachelors.. same salary base and staff position. Other than that, we all need to talk about Quarter Life Crisis, losing friends is the highlight. So this video is exactly what we need For Favors, it's true, Zoomers and Millennials will not repay you any favor, but they can still treat other people that they don't owe to. Never expect anything from ungrateful people
I reallllyyyy needed this video!! Im literally crying as i watched it. You have no idea how much of a boost it gave me, i really needed it. Thank you 🥰
Miki, thank you so much for being such a great inspiration to all of us. Every time you upload a new video, I feel so much more motivated, and my day just gets so much more productive. I'm currently a year 11 high school student, I'm not sure if I will be in the medical field in the future, but after I discovered this channel, I know I can rest assured that it is a blessed place with hardworking, responsible and kind people like you and Kevin. Thank you for blessing us💜, love you two so muchhhhh :)
Totally can relate! Mental health is so important and how to make life easier to complete check list or stuff! Relate to every point! Love this vid! Keep it up Miki!❤🎉
Thanks for making this video ✨I’m in my first year of grad school and your videos inspire me a lot and help to remind me why I want to do what I’m doing now 🥺
I totally agree and learn a lot from this video. Thank you for sharing all these. Now I'm at the age of 23 and can relate to everything that you said. I will start trying the five lessons to become better. Love this topic and wish to have more of this kind of (self-growth, become better) on your youtube channel. I LOVE IT 🥰
Be patient, kind and loving to yourself. Your 20’s is the learning period, I call it. You are learning yourself outside of your parents and what you learned from them. You trial and error your own decisions. Your discovering your own voice vs that of others. Trust me you may not get it right the first time and even if you do, two years later you may change your mind. The stigma that needs to change is that you have to have it together in your 20s. If life expectancy has increased so should your trial period 😉 God bless you all 💛
Great video Miki! I'm really happy for you, that you were able to makes these changes to improve your life and being able to focus more on yourself. Very relatable, and if you want to make more videos like this in the future, I will look forward to watching them.
Thanks so much for this video- you literally posted at the perfect time for me. I’m about to turn 20 and I can relate to the intro of your video. Your advice feel so genuine that I had to comment and say thank you. :)
Wow yas miki!!! Everything you said is relatable! It’s what needed to hear! And I’m glad I’m not the only one navigating these exact point and emotions! Love you❤️
Thank you so much for sharing this video Miki :) I can absolutely relate to this! Being in your mid 20’s is tough! Every tip you gave is so useful especially the fourth one, would love to see more videos like this :)
you've got it goin' on. I am 34 and feel accomplished in totally different ways. love your resonation and like I say to everyone rest rest rest when you feel better, run ° also downshifting is a good recommendation
I don’t really leave comments often but after watching, I felt compelled to. I could relate well to like everything and I just turned 24 this year; life has been really so so wonderful since I’ve started to do some things better like managing work life balance much better, getting off early and sticking close to my own no-OT policy! I’m an auditor so often people OT but I’ve tried my best to not have overtime if I can, and finding more work smart ways to go around my work. Last Nov I also took some courses to upgrade my data analytics skills which is also work relevant and I think my team can appreciate me much more now, given it’s a “rare” skill. I guess the first is the most important; having “easy, irresistible” habits. One of my bosses told me to remember to always have a non-work related interest/hobby, else everyday feels like work, though your passion can make you enjoy work. I’ve now enjoyed more time alone, like watching a movie 🍿 by my own, shopping etc My colleagues also feel I’ve had that “glow” this year compared to the last, which is really awesome 😎 I think it’s the result of all points in the videos combined. Your video provided like an affirmation of sort that I’m living life well, and we should be proud of leading better lives!!
Looking back at my early and mid 20s I must say that 95-99% of the stuff I worried about didn’t even matter in the end. If I could be 19 again I would just live my life without thinking too much. Also screw having 5-10 plans, they rarely work out according to plan - just let it happen naturally !
what i realize in my early 30s is that my nature is suppose to be slow.. i have my own internal clock in regards to my physiology so people getting married at 25? im glad i didnt because i suppose i couldnt handle that big life decision. at 33 in my own observation, my body is experiencing its maturation in terms of growth and development. im experiencing different kinds of sensuality i havent experienced in my puberty years and this gives me awe. im not suppose to copy people of their milestone or else id get lost like a chicken constantly clacking and running around without a head. i like everything slow, savoring mundane things, observing minute details otherwise i wouldnt have noticed if my head was up in the clouds all the time or in short, my senses never really present, capturing experiences.
NO but i just came across this jn and then i saw u and i thought wuu who dia gurl seems familiar then i saw ur bf N I INSTANTLY RECALL U GUYS FROM TIKTOK LMAO I ENJOY U GUYS CONTENT ON TIKTOK A LOT REALLY CUTE!!!❤️❤️
Oh my god I’ve never related to something more in my LIFE! I just turned 25 and honestly I’m scared and a bit lost. Trying to be healthy, grow mentally and compete in this hustle culture has swallowed me whole and I’m just now learning how to live the life I want to live for ME. I’m just thankful I’m not the only one who felt this way 💜
Wow you’re everywhere!
I’m watching this in my 30’s and I can honestly say I’m so much happier now than I was in my 20’s 😂💗 I’m a single mom and currently in the nursing program! 👩🏻⚕️ You’re such an inspiration, I love your channel Miki 🙌🏼✨

Your own thoughts can either make you or break you. be strong and stay positive! ❤️
"Setting boundary with Asian parents" Yes!! me too!! I never knew others felt this way too!! And you gave words to what I've been recently struggling with!
I'm 19 and I've never been so nervous in my entire life. So I told myself I'll try to watch more about life lessons and try to at least be prepared when turning 20. Thank u so much for this video 💝
Thought I was the only 19 aged one here
19 here too, I’m so so in crisis
just broke up with my bf bc he didnt respond to any of my texts/calls for almost a month. and i think the hardest lesson i learnt was that just because something is familiar and comfortable, doesn't mean it's right for you. letting go of someone you love will hurt so badly but in weeks/months to come, it will be for the better esp if that person you love isn't giving what they've been taking from you.

I'm going to turn 22 soon. Thanks for sharing your feelings and thoughts! I hope you're doing well. And I really loved your last sentence.
@@panda_3265 hi thanks so much for your well wishes. Happy 22 years old ❤

I love these videos from you. So healing and peaceful. Thank you beautiful ❤️💯
I am 21 turning 22 soon in May and I could say this help me realize things a lot more in depth. 🤩
I needed to hear that it's normal to lose some friendships, I kept blame myself for the past few years because I thought something was wrong with me and why most of my "friends" didn't want to hang out or invite me to places. Thank you so much for this video. I REALLY APPRECIATE that someone out there UNDERSTAND the STRUGGLES in your 20s.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Im not in my 20s yet lol but I have learned that I dont need to be perfect, that just trying is enough sometimes. If it works out, great. If it doesnt, dont beat yourself up over it. Obviously this doesnt apply to EVERYTHING but it does to a lot of small everyday things ✨
I'm in my 20s and definitely feel the problems that you talked bout. It feels weird knowing ppl around you are engaged, getting married or having kids since I know I'm not there yet. It's always difficult when you do more for other people but thts why I learned from my older cousin that if someone gives you 20% of their energy or care, then you should do the same. You should never just say yes for everything since people will try to take advantage. I hope things do get better for you and keep these videos up🤚☮
Hi Miki! I’m in my teens, just turned 17 to be exact! I have never related more to someone when you talked about giving more in relationships than you receive back. I just lost all my friends because they stopped talking to me ever since I got cancer. Now I don’t know how to make new friends and I’m trying to restart 10th grade since my cancer held me back. I’m in remission and studying to become a traveling nurse. You are such a big inspiration and I can’t wait to grow with you even though you’re older than me 😅☺️
I'm a massage therapist and I want to thank you for this video! It's been really hard to prioritize my time to do stuff and I have so much on my plate as well. Hence, my mental health is the biggest issue of it all, and I'm in my late twenties. Thank you Miki!
wth literally just what i needed today right of this moment.... haven't seen my sparkle for so long and have been overextending myself for way too long... time to take a step back and pen down all my thoughts! thank you miki, this video was like the meditation i needed today :)
Thank you for sharing! I’ve related so much with what you’ve shared. Tried so hard to navigate my 20s but the biggest obstacle is myself and my mental health. Now I’m entering my 30s and found myself more at peace with who I am and who I should be. Loved the part of refocusing all the excess energy to improving oneself..Thank you! 😊
I'm 25 too and going through a quarter-life crisis currently, I needed this... thank you!!!
I’m in my mid 40s and yet, a lot of what you said resonated with me. Loved the video! And fyi, it does get easier. Hang in there!
Really appreciate the effort you put into this video Miki. I turned 20 last year and somehow i always feel like I'm falling behind others, be it in case of academics, or socialising and going out. Like the FOMO is real whenever I see people living their "best lives" on social media. The biggest takeaway from this video for me was to focus on my mental health and build good habits ❤
This video has reached to the right people in the right time from the right person. Misery loves company, and knowing that I am not alone, there are others facing the same pressure and trying to self help is important . Lots of love ❤️
Thank you for this. I love your normal content, but I’m not going to lie your life looks perfect but it’s not, no one’s is! so although i enjoy your other content, it is just so nice to see you be vulnerable and let people know they aren’t alone.
Hey Miki! I think your video speaks the truth of how I am dealing with while entering into my thirties. The best part of your video that I found is that you need to find hobbies that are simple and enjoyable at the same time. Also, forming simple habits is also a great idea. I think you did a great job! Again, thank you for this video~

I just turned 24! Current RN, My husband and I are planning to have a child this year, so I am getting ourselves more healthy physically and mentally. I am looking forward to pursue NP degree in the future. I cannot agree more about that morning routine is so important! I have to get him work on that together! :) other than that, I think you make a good point about not stressing to get as fast as we can, I worked so much OT this month to cover my tuition for critical care nursing certificate, and I am going to slow down and work regular hours next month. I hope to continue read more books and remain constant learning ! :-) thank you Miki and wish you a good day! Blessings :-)
I really liked your video! I really resonated with what you said about taking shortcuts and rushing through life. I don’t take enough care of my body, my mental health, and sleep because I prioritize my grades and other things above it. But I’m also trying to work on self care and making good habits
As someone currently also going through a quarter life crisis, I can honestly say that I like myself more now than precrisis me. I have learned a lot about myself and my relations with others. I have cut relations with people who don’t matter and greatly strengthened friendships with the people that do. I have learned to enjoy the journey and not just rush to the next destination in life and I feel that I still have more to learn before its over.
What a POWERFUL and motivating video! I thank you so much for this and made me second guess what I’m doing that could be harming!
I’m not the type to watch videos like this but I am so glad I did. Thank you!!!
this was so good to hear! I’m glad I’m not the only one who gets feelings like this 🥺
I'm almost 18 y/o (my bday is exactly in one month) and I'm hella scared to be an official adult, I feel I haven't done things that made me truly happy during my teenage life and is just frustrating and disappointing, but I guess the biggest lesson I have learned in my life is you are your best friend, you are the only one who is going to help you in everything, not your family, not your best friends, not your partner, you only have yourself in the end of the day and you should learn that you are always enough for yourself
You are so inspiring for me! I admire your positive vibe and way of thinking. I think you have a wonderful personality. 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Yes loved the video! I feel like I reassess my life every year. I'll turn 28 this year so I'm feeling societal pressure. We should try to enjoy the journey to get where we want to he too. God Bless! And here's to thriving at whatever age you're at!🥂❤💯
I really loved hearing your thoughts and feedback about your 20s. I appreciate the advice and will try to implement that into my life. I am 20. I turn 21 in July. I honestly feel lost at times. I’m currently doing nursing school. I sometimes question whether or not I’m on the right track. I tend to second guess myself a lot and question my capabilities. I honestly feel tired all the time. I don’t really have a lot of friends and I’m okay with that. I don’t like to party or drink. Most people my age that are around me think it’s weird I don’t want to nor have the desire to go out and party. I definitely feel more like a homebody. However, I wish I had more hobbies. I never know what to do for myself or what interests me anymore. There’s so much more I could say but thank you for this amazing video. You’re a strong woman and I appreciate your content and your advice.
Hi👋🏼, don't feel pressured into doing things you don't wanna do or feel comfortable with. Life will go on no matter what. Just take it a day at a time & the people who wants to stay in your life will no matter what. Just be you & keep discovering what makes you look forward to the every day life.
Loved this video! I just turned 20 recently and a lot of these things have been on my mind recently since I graduate in a week... Will definitely need to be mindful for being more rounded since I put a lot of pressure on myself + is very career-driven. Thanks for the tips Miki ❤
Idk how I could relate to you in a lot of ways. From bedside nursing to this. Especially the mental health part. Couldn't agree more. I took a few breakdowns before I realise and had been more aware of it. Thank you ❣️ for always being truthful.
im reaching my 20s this year and tbh im both scared and excited to grow up rn. like you, i feel like rushing everything to finally get to where i want to be, but as time passes im starting to get scared about getting older because i keep getting confused about myself and how im supposed to run my life.
but thank you for the tips ate miki! apart from this you also inspired me to pursue nursing school :))
Thank you for making me feel better about life and just set me at ease 🥺💗
Definitely move at your own pace and seek balance more than perfection. Ensure that you get to know yourself and what you stand for as an individual so that you live for yourself and for things that genuinely matter to you, bring you peace of mind, and people that you love and make you feel loved.
Indeed, a reminder for everyone to take it easy and slow down. Love it!💙
5:10 Omg your dog was doing mindfulness with you!! That’s wholesome
the worst part of a person with a Master's degree. you get treated as Bachelors.. same salary base and staff position.
Other than that, we all need to talk about Quarter Life Crisis, losing friends is the highlight. So this video is exactly what we need
For Favors, it's true, Zoomers and Millennials will not repay you any favor, but they can still treat other people that they don't owe to. Never expect anything from ungrateful people
loved it!! thank you for this video & for just simply being the best version of a human you can be 💗
I reallllyyyy needed this video!! Im literally crying as i watched it. You have no idea how much of a boost it gave me, i really needed it. Thank you 🥰
I really needed this, thank you Miki!
Miki, thank you so much for being such a great inspiration to all of us. Every time you upload a new video, I feel so much more motivated, and my day just gets so much more productive. I'm currently a year 11 high school student, I'm not sure if I will be in the medical field in the future, but after I discovered this channel, I know I can rest assured that it is a blessed place with hardworking, responsible and kind people like you and Kevin. Thank you for blessing us💜, love you two so muchhhhh :)
THANK YOU MIKI ❤...WAS REALLY HELPFUL 😊
Totally can relate! Mental health is so important and how to make life easier to complete check list or stuff! Relate to every point! Love this vid! Keep it up Miki!❤🎉
Love love love this video!!! Love how you’re so positive and supportive!!!
Thanks for making this video ✨I’m in my first year of grad school and your videos inspire me a lot and help to remind me why I want to do what I’m doing now 🥺
Loved this!!! So amazingly put together ❤️
Totally needed this right now ! 💗
I totally agree and learn a lot from this video. Thank you for sharing all these. Now I'm at the age of 23 and can relate to everything that you said. I will start trying the five lessons to become better. Love this topic and wish to have more of this kind of (self-growth, become better) on your youtube channel. I LOVE IT 🥰
Be patient, kind and loving to yourself. Your 20’s is the learning period, I call it. You are learning yourself outside of your parents and what you learned from them. You trial and error your own decisions. Your discovering your own voice vs that of others. Trust me you may not get it right the first time and even if you do, two years later you may change your mind. The stigma that needs to change is that you have to have it together in your 20s. If life expectancy has increased so should your trial period 😉
God bless you all 💛
the start is already so greattttttt
honestly really needed this. currently going through this quarter life rn!
I loved this video!! I really needed to hear this, thank you!
Great video Miki! I'm really happy for you, that you were able to makes these changes to improve your life and being able to focus more on yourself. Very relatable, and if you want to make more videos like this in the future, I will look forward to watching them.
Thanks so much for this video- you literally posted at the perfect time for me. I’m about to turn 20 and I can relate to the intro of your video. Your advice feel so genuine that I had to comment and say thank you. :)
Thank you so much ...
Lots of love from🇮🇳
5:09 Thank you for the video. Would love to have a longer and slower version or 30s of this for meditation!
Wow yas miki!!! Everything you said is relatable! It’s what needed to hear! And I’m glad I’m not the only one navigating these exact point and emotions! Love you❤️
good reminder to all of us trying to rush to certain goals in life
Thank you so much for sharing this video Miki :) I can absolutely relate to this! Being in your mid 20’s is tough! Every tip you gave is so useful especially the fourth one, would love to see more videos like this :)
i've always loved watching your videos (love the content, editing, and your vibe)
Since turning 25 years old, I can't wait for my quarter-life crisis. We will live through the long long days and the long nights.
Definitely wish this advice was around when I was in my 20s . Definitely enjoyed this!
OMG Miki you are so beautiful inside and out!
you've got it goin' on. I am 34 and feel accomplished in totally different ways. love your resonation and like I say to everyone rest rest rest
when you feel better, run °
also downshifting is a good recommendation
I watch quiet relaxing .
things to help slow down
I LOVE YOU, NURSE MIKI RAI ! ❤️🤍✨
I don’t really leave comments often but after watching, I felt compelled to.
I could relate well to like everything and I just turned 24 this year; life has been really so so wonderful since I’ve started to do some things better like managing work life balance much better, getting off early and sticking close to my own no-OT policy! I’m an auditor so often people OT but I’ve tried my best to not have overtime if I can, and finding more work smart ways to go around my work.
Last Nov I also took some courses to upgrade my data analytics skills which is also work relevant and I think my team can appreciate me much more now, given it’s a “rare” skill.
I guess the first is the most important; having “easy, irresistible” habits. One of my bosses told me to remember to always have a non-work related interest/hobby, else everyday feels like work, though your passion can make you enjoy work. I’ve now enjoyed more time alone, like watching a movie 🍿 by my own, shopping etc
My colleagues also feel I’ve had that “glow” this year compared to the last, which is really awesome 😎 I think it’s the result of all points in the videos combined. Your video provided like an affirmation of sort that I’m living life well, and we should be proud of leading better lives!!
Love this Video and it is relatable and realistic 👌🏼
Thanks for sharing these wise words 💗💗💗 I am 21 and I need to hear this🥺
I am far from my 20s now but love watching your videos. Definitely not in the demographic you would expect...
I loved this video! 💗💗☺️
I loved this video! In my 20s rn and can totally relate. Thanks for being vulnerable and sharing
Looking back at my early and mid 20s I must say that 95-99% of the stuff I worried about didn’t even matter in the end. If I could be 19 again I would just live my life without thinking too much. Also screw having 5-10 plans, they rarely work out according to plan - just let it happen naturally !
A very useful video for youngsters.. u can do more like this ♥️
Thank you so much for this video. I’m 23 this year and I feel like 💩 and sad almost every day 😢
Absolutely love the video ❤️ just what I needed to hear as a 20 something girl ❤️🥰
Love this video and found it so relatable! Thank you for sharing.
what i realize in my early 30s is that my nature is suppose to be slow.. i have my own internal clock in regards to my physiology so people getting married at 25? im glad i didnt because i suppose i couldnt handle that big life decision. at 33 in my own observation, my body is experiencing its maturation in terms of growth and development. im experiencing different kinds of sensuality i havent experienced in my puberty years and this gives me awe.
im not suppose to copy people of their milestone or else id get lost like a chicken constantly clacking and running around without a head.
i like everything slow, savoring mundane things, observing minute details otherwise i wouldnt have noticed if my head was up in the clouds all the time or in short, my senses never really present, capturing experiences.
This video is amazing .. so inspiring.. please make more video like this ☺️☺️
Although i am not in my 20s yet, I did relate to it a lot. This video gave me such an open mindset!!
I'm about to get 20 this yr in June ☺☺☺☺ glad I got to know things Before actually experiencing.....any other tips??
I love how your dog was meditating with you! 😆💛
Love this video very much. Exactly how I’ve been feeling 😊
NO but i just came across this jn and then i saw u and i thought wuu who dia gurl seems familiar then i saw ur bf N I INSTANTLY RECALL U GUYS FROM TIKTOK LMAO I ENJOY U GUYS CONTENT ON TIKTOK A LOT REALLY CUTE!!!❤️❤️
