    I found you for the exact same reason you started RUclips. I moved away from my family and had small kids. I wanted to feel part of something. Once I found you and a few other RUclipsrs I gained the courage to start my own channel. I love following you on your journey. Maybe I should rephrase that, I love being a part of your journey. It has helped shape mine. We are friends you just don’t know it 😂. Thanks for sharing and being you.

    Follower since you moved back to Canada. Watch every video and I bought at least 4-5 candles in this time. Thank you for sharing your vulnerability and I’m so happy that you, Dean, the family, the house, all made it through. I never doubted you and your capabilities and the way you and Dean shifted to make it all work is aspiring. Thank you for being so authentic. I’m excited for the future for Amanda Muse.

Living in Germany with my husband and our only son at the time and I felt like I was going through it with you. I can’t believe it’s been so many years and still look for your videos. We love you ❤

    I'm sorry to hear what you've been through. I watched a few of your videos along the way through the pandemic and just thought, "Wow, she's stronger than me". I don't think anyone who has had to go through what you guys (and many others) have gone through will come out unscathed. We will all be healing from this for many years to come. It's just not been fair. But it's pretty amazing that you not only held it together, but appeared to be taking it all in your stride and then came out the other side all. Many others haven't I guess. The world is a different place now. It's good you are still here sharing your life with us. xxx

    I'm laying in bed, catching up on your videos, and I'm crying with you 😭 I started watching you 5 years ago, pregnant with my first baby. I've been along for the ride the entire pandemic, haven't missed a video in 5 years lol 😳 you did it girl!!! You effin did it and damn straight you should be proud. You helped alot of people along the way too. I feel like you helped me alot. I had another baby and lost my father during this pandemic. It was hell to say the least. When I needed to escape the awful reality I'd spend some time catching up on your videos. You're amazing and please keep it up. Can't wait to see where you're going from here. I'm with you for the long run! 🙌

    I'm so glad that things are turning around for you and your family. Thank you for sharing in such a vulnerable way. My husband lost his job in April 2020. I know that, for him, it was the hardest part of his life so far, but for me, it was the best thing that could have happened. We got to spend 8 months as a family, making fantastic memories every single day. We had savings that was more than enough to sustain us through that time. (Not that I wanted to use our rainy day fund, but I know exactly how blessed we were that we had it.) I was able to start homeschooling my kids, which is something I wanted but my husband wasn't on board with yet. We were able to move back to our home state and can now visit family much more regularly. While my husband acknowledges all of those things as truths, losing his job was devastating to him. Job loss as the primary or sole provider can be absolutely horrible. Did Dean deal with a loss of identity, as a provider for his family or as a pilot? Are there any positives that you or Dean have seen, even through all of the trauma and change?

    The biggest thing I hear after the relief of all you guys have been through and you personally is your thinking and preparing for shit to hit the wall as life does happen and to have a big toolbox of coping skills and a support system in place for these times. I am working on that as well and I don’t really ever talk to people about it but after being through so much of my own personal shitstorm of life I can see what worked and what didn’t and what is essential to survival. Someone else said persistence is one very essential skill as well as what you did with trying to solve problems from all angles but then having skills for depression and anxiety flares that if you are prone towards them then yeah you have to have a good skill set both physically and mentally and in daily life with a good amount of structure. And by structure I don’t mean a strict regime but that you have routine and you know what you need like your meditation to check in and work on what’s happening at the moment and not carry your shit around that maybe minor but have that ball hit some crisis and then you have been snowballed and can’t get up. I fully get it. I don’t have at all the same life, no kids and all of that but I have a lot of parallels in other ways and I never could pinpoint it but I think your drive for the betterment of your life no matter what and your patience and seeking all solutions and fighting for your family to survive and your hard work to mean something like being able to have a home and gift your kids what you didn’t have is core. You are amazing and stand for so so many women (and couples who struggled and families who maybe did have to fear financial crisis and grieve losses of dreams and lose homes). I very much relate to that fear and we did lose our home not to pandemic but to health issues putting both of us partners into financial devastation. We also did lose a good bit of our healthy marriage in this time of change and we still fight now to be together even when we are fighting like cats and dogs bc we know at the core we do share something that can’t be replaced. There are definite damages that happen when these times hit and a lot depends on how much damage and how able you both are to repair and rebuild and it has to come from both sides and not just one person. It’s a whole other topic but I’m so proud of you for standing up and fighting your ass off to keep your husband, to protect the gifts you want to give your children and all while suffering. You did it! So yeah building a bit of a crisis prevention and treatment toolbox is the most intelligent thing to do. You see life throws shit now and accept that so now you want to see how you will more quickly stand if knocked down or how to even stay standing even while the storm tries to blow you down. Keep talking about it and what you have found that helped you survive and how you plan to be prepared. I swear the old “be prepared” Girl Scout lesson we were taught really is the basis for so much of life. I appreciate your willingness to share your tears and some of your childhood to give light to your motivation. Keep on truckin’!

    17:40 FULL SOBBING. We had a pile of life happen during the past couple years (fully not pandemic related, just coincident timing) and it's been a fucking FIGHT to stay together. My stepson (with a lot of difficulties of his own) came to live with us, then my husband lost his job in the midst of trying to finish renovating a house and property to sell, THEN we moved to Ecuador from the US (long standing dream) THEN we had ALL our carefully layed plans here FALL APART because of other people. And we're still slogging through hard hard times. I really thought, several times, that we weren't going to stay together. Thank you for being open and honest, it feels a little less lonely...
