I love the idea of looking back on our lives and seeing the regenerations of ourselves. I think it gives us so much more freedom to grow and change, and at the same time, look back on our past selves with kindness more than judgment. This is something I’ve been struggling with, so I want to thank you for introducing this idea!
It's daunting to look back but necessary I think to look at how far you've come and know that you can keep going!
I love this video and feel it so much. I'm 24 and I feel like the formative years in my early twenties were taken away because of covid and I'm only now starting to think about who I am as a person and getting the help that I need to become that person. I'm sure others would also agree that we can see the changes you've made in the last year and see how happy you've become.
I'm so sorry Covid stole those years from you but I have no doubt that you're still capable of making up for lost time and doing incredible things!
I feel this SO hard! Thank you for voicing it 😊x
I feel this! I was turning 23 at the onset of the pandemic and I feel like I lost my early 20s. I'd just finished my degree and was ready to explore 😭
As someone who has been here unwaveringly from the beginning- it seems really obvious to me that you are not only at your happiest but you are your most content, comfortable and settled self and I think that’s a really important distinction to make. Thank you for sharing this with us!
I will be 30 this year and have been watching your videos since I was a teenager I just wanted to say I absolutely agree with feeling like you are an adult when you are 20 and that I cannot imagine having my life be public at that time. I’ve always loved your videos and I am so glad to see that you are doing so well❤
I am only 26 but I already have a lot of regret about how things have happened in my life and how I have dealt with things, but I love now that I can look back as you have and realise that I just didn't know at the time and I was a different version of myself. I hope we all keep growing and learning how to deal with this crazy thing called life and whatever is thrown at us! Happy that you have found the happiness you have 💕
I’ve been here since you were 20 and I’m so proud of who you’ve become even still with fondness for who you were. Also so pleased that the horrid ness of the past is just a page in the book now ❤️ not the whole volume
In two months I will turn 30, and I've been here since the whole time since I was 19 or 20. It's so nice for you to do that and be gentle to yourself and share with us about your past versions. I am so judgemental with myself because during all my 20s I felt really lost and vulnerable to people who end out hurting me.
Oh Carrie. None of us ‘let’ ourselves be manipulated. The way manipulation works is we don’t realise it is happening. And loving someone and trusting the person we love can only be seen as a bad thing when THEY turn out to have treated us badly.
You can be manipulated and know exactly what's happening in the moment. Most frustrating feeling in the world.
This was so beautiful to hear right now. I feel like I am currently going through a "regeneration" right now and I can see myself changing and growing before my own eyes. I am turning 24 soon with this deep seeded loneliness and I have no idea how or where to make connections with people. The fact that you found your people in your mid 20s is a wonderful thing to hear right now
I truly hope u find your people, u deserve it!:)
Seems like everyone is going through a big Saturn return period this year. I listened to The Midnight Library, and feel like this video hits a similar note: change can happen anytime and anywhere, you just have to embrace yourself. Thanks for sharing all of this Carrie, it's really validating to know we're all going through our crazy journeys together.
Love this video! I am 32 and i feel that at age 30, that’s when the ‘i couldnt give a ****’ switch turns on, in turn making us happier people 😂 . I have found the best version of myself since turning 30 and having my daughter!
This is so peculiar to watch knowing that I’ve been here with you every step of the way. I was there at the beginning, I remember “boys in books are better”. I have a signed copy of “All I Know Now”. I remember you moving into your flat, I remember you on each tour that you went on. It’s so surreal to realize I remember each of these “regenerations” of you, that I was there with you and loved each one of them. I feel like I’ve grown up with you, and have seen you mature and grow into the wonderful person you are now. While you may view certain parts of your life with distain or pity, just know that there’s someone out there that loved each and every one of them, and will continue to do so. You are a wonderful person Carrie, and I’m so thrilled to be here for whatever your journey may bring.
I've watched your channel for about a decade now and seeing you grow into the wonderful person you are today has been incredible. I've never thought of my life in this regeneration sort of way but maybe that's something I start doing. The last few years have been tough to say the least. Not only did lockdown isolate me physically, but emotionally and mentally too. I lost all confidence in myself and my abilities (not that I had much in the first place). This year has already been a fresh start for me. I graduated with a distinction in my masters degree and have recently started a new job that I'm so passionate about. The new environment has given me a new sense of purpose and confidence and I feel the most like myself that I ever have done. Thank you for being a part of my journey, even if you arent aware of it ❤
To be honest, Carrie. I've loved every minute of this journey with you. I haven't been diligent at every video as others may have. But I love to check in on things once in a while. Turning 26 this year, along with a whole load of others, you've been a lovely bonus of constant unashamed you, which may not feel like the same to you. Obviously, we have all been evolving, but the you you show us is insightful, mature, thoughtful and creative. And I thank you so much for the time you've taken to let us all in to your life in this way. Much love and hope for a bright and bubbly future for us all ❤I haven't left a comment in ruddy years, but for you, I think it's important for you to know you're great 😊👋
Really interesting and thought provoking, Carrie. And good on you for being able to look back without giving across any sense of bitterness - just acceptance and openness to learn more which I’m sure is a point that’s taken a lot of work to get to. The key to happiness for sure, as well as the amazing people you’ve found along the way. You become so sparkly in the last couple of minutes talking about where you are today, just lovely. x
Thank you!
i LOVED watching this because honestly, we grew up together. When i followed you, W was only a year younger. I've been here since the very beginning, Lady Godiva and all. Watching you grow, fall in love, cry, succeed, fall in love again repeat always seemed to mimic something in my life as well. Thank you for all of the years Carrie. I'm so excited to keep living on this rock with all the versions of you as well
I really appreciate you acknowledging the way that you handled the experience of 2014. That's a massive deal I'm sure for the victims of that time, and it's an incredibly important lesson for anyone who hasn't handled a huge and difficult situation.
Carrie I adored this video! Listening to you talk about the different versions of yourself really resonated with me today. I’m 26 and going though some big changes in my career, something I thought would look entirely different a few years ago. I’ve learned from my past self to not listen too much to others opinions of what I should be doing with my life, I spent so long hung up on that and ended up feeling hugely unfulfilled. Hearing you speak about your past self with such kindness has encouraged me to do the same. Thank you! ❤
You are 4 years older then me and I have been following you from the states since the beginning. You have been a wonderful constant in my life, your videos are uplifting and educational on life. You have shown me more then anyone else just how much is possible to achieve in this life. I can’t believe it’s been 10 years.❤🎉
i remember the very beginning and it makes me so nostalgic to think about those times and i distinctly remember your ex boyfriends downfall, and feeling great concern for you. i always felt like you were a big sister and its so interesting to hear you reflect on it so many years later. i was 14 or so then. and im 25 and pregnant now.
Carrie, thanks for sharing your journey. One of the reasons I watch your videos is because I always wanted to be a musical theatre performer and it never happened, so I kind of like to see the behind-the-scenes of what it would be like. At 45, one of the things you said at the end about how you're really now at a place where you've taken certain parts of your previous selves and come to a version that you really like - I think that's a journey everyone goes through in some way or another and it can't be done without living and growing up. The reason you love yourself now, is because you learned lots of things from those other versions of you. The details are different for everyone, but we all sort of grow up and go "Oh. Wow. I had no CLUE when I was a kid." LOL Thanks for sharing your lives with us.
Carrie, recently the filmed version of your appearance in Les Miserable debuted on the silver screen as a Fathom Events presentation at theaters here in the United States.... To me, hearing your name heralded in the promotional advertisements (TV commercials) as one of the performers, after watching you and your exes' videos for over a decade, to me that ad spot confirmed you're officially a celebrity in your own right. I cheered when I saw that a few weeks ago!!
This is the perfect video to sit down with a cup of tea and watch. I went through some shitty things between 25-30 and it wasn’t until I went to therapy that it was all made clear it was a build up of things I had gone through between the ages of 17-24. I found this so relatable. 😊
I'm so sorry that you went through some tough times but so glad that therapy has helped you work it out! Keep going! You're amazing!
As someone who is mid 20s it is always lovely to hear people talk about their 20s and how different they all are shows there isn't a right way or wrong way to do it. Thank you for this video
Been watching you for ages, really feel I’ve grown with you, so I loved this video. The current version of you is so strong and inspiring, it’s so awesome to see you so happy and confident, thank you for all the content throughout the years:)❤❤
Thank you so much for this video Carrie! I've followed your channel and career for this whole period of your life and I've always appreciated how genuine you are about your growth as a person. You've inspired me so much over the years and I'm so happy your journey has led you to be who you are today. You are a pure light ♥
How lovely to hear! For you, happy that you are where you are right now. But also for me, being 24 and going through a rough year right now, hearing you talk about previous years have been rough but also how right now you are feeling great (which is visible in all your recent content) is hopeful.
I was one of those out-of-demographic audience members of the Chitty tour when I was visiting the UK at the time. I remember waiting outside for at least an hour by stage door and there were a number of renowned actors walking by that nobody looked twice at. I was an early 20 something year old with a funky haircut at the time and I remember feeling so ashamed when some of the managing staff were openly scoffing at the crowd of teenagers with funky haircuts waiting solely for you without any recognition to the other talent in the show. I wasn't disappointed that you didn't show though, the performance was lovely and I went into it fully knowing that I'd paid for the show, not a stage door appearance. In the weeks following you actually posted a video addressing how overwhelming stage door was for you at the time and it just confirmed what I'd suspected. It's nice to look back and reflect on how things have changed for you and perhaps also how your audience (read: me) has matured in that time as well
I relate so much to your talk about therapy and the relief of feeling validated. I had a similar experience where before I was blaming myself for all the negative thoughts that popped into my mind and to have someone tell me that it’s not my fault for having these thoughts, was such a weight lifted off of me! I really appreciate you making this video and hopefully we can all strive to being the best versions of ourselves that we are accepting of xxx
I love how joyous you are about who you've become and excited you are about where you are now and where you are going 🥺💖
Really interesting and empathetic reflections ♥️I remember loving the original video when you posted it (10 years ago oh my god haha)
I’ve been watching since the beginning (it’s crazy to think it’s been that long). But being able to watch you grow into this version of yourself has been wonderful. I, too, went through a massive breakup in early 2022 and have spent this past year piecing together my favorite parts of myself. I’m so glad to see you are thriving.
"There's a version of myself that's like 'id like to be her one day, thats the person i'm working towards." Oof I can't tell you how hard that hit! Really really in that place myself right now, turning 30 the end of this year. I can see the version of myself I really want to be but I just can't get to her yet. Hopefully soon ❤
I have been here for a long time, and I'm so glad to see how happy you are now. To quote the doctor, we're all different people all throughout our lives and that's okay, that’s good, you've got to keep moving, so long as you remember all the people that you used to be.
I've also been here for at least a decade with you, and we're the same age. It's been so wonderful to tune into what you've been doing as we've had similar kinds of regeneration through our twenties. Thank you, Carrie. ❤️
It's also incredibly possible to be self-aware, recognizing there are things that aren't perfect about yourself and actively working on yourself, AND still love who you are. It's sad that your self-love has to be justified/explained. Loving yourself doesn't mean you think you're perfect, but you're right in thinking some people will interpret it that way. I've been a viewer since very nearly the beginning and I've grown alongside you (on my own journey, obviously) and I just have to say I'm incredibly proud to see how far you've come. And I'm looking forward to where you go, should you continue to choose to share it with us.
Wow. It feels like just yesterday that I subscribed but it's been over 10 years. Thank you for this video. It's fascinating because I feel like I regenerated around the same times and that's probably why I was so drawn to watching you. It was like watching a friend who knew exactly what I was going through when I felt alone. It's lovely to see how you've grown and to reflect on how I've grown.
Carrie, hugs, love, thank yous & fabulous luck & positivity for the future x
what a really lovely way of reflecting kindly on the past and seeing how much you've grown! Really heart-warming and needed some warmth on this cold, grey miserable day in London! I've been using a similar idea in therapy and think it's useful to be able to have "different versions" of ourselves and be able to look at them with kindness rather than scorn :)
Thank you for this. I'm 30 this year, my marriage ended almost 3 years ago. I felt like I've failed. Nows the time to become the me uve always wanted to be
Wow, what a walk down memory lane. Thank you for being part of my own past. You've always been an inspiration.
Loved that radio metaphor, and the regenerations as a reflective tool. As someone that's been watching a long time now I'm so grateful that you're still someone I can continue to both take inspiration from and cheer on
Edgar's cameo in this video is truly glorious.
Whoa. You making this video, made me realize that I've been following your RUclips journey for 10 years! 😲 I remember the whole Day-Drama-thing, and not understanding anything of what was going on, as you were the only British RUclipsr I followed (I'm Danish, so didn't read the press coverage or anything either.), so I had no idea what was going on. What a way you've come since then. How fast life passes us by.
This video gave me a lot of feelings. I'm 28, and used to watch all of your videos when we were teenagers/early 20s; you were (are) a bit older than me, but only a bit, and I really loved hearing your thoughts and feelings on things. 'When did you become the version of yourself that you feel like you are now' is one of my favourite questions to ask people, and has been for a while (I've heard a lot of good answers), so of course I watched this video despite not being as hooked on youtube any more. I have no right to comment on your life, as we have WILDLY different experiences, but I just wanted to say
1) I always hugely admired how you seemed to be coping with things - I didn't know the half of what was going on e.g. f**cked up written abuse, but even just the theatre life and fame seem like such an emotional rollercoaster. I know you get to choose what you present to the world on your channel, but how insightful and kind your thoughts often are is super lovely. Not in a like 'she's so perfect' way, but in a 'this person who in some ways is quite similar to me seems like a really good soul, and maybe I can be like that too' way. I sometimes think about my past self, and I don't usually have much judgement, although of course there are things I'm particularly proud / not proud of - I usually just want to hug her and tell her she's trying really hard and doing the best she can. You had to deal with many more complex issues than I did; all I'm trying to say is that it sounds really rough, I'm sorry, and you're wonderful.
2) I'm so glad you're feeling so good about things now
such a lovely and comforting video 🥺 so lovely to watch how you've grown and changed throughout your life and dealt with things...i'm 18 and still young but i'm apprehensive as to what's to come in the future, but this video was relieving, thank you..❤
i'm really thankful for you talking about that relationship. so many of us were going through similar stuff at the same time and it's always so helpful to hear your perspective here xx
Carrie I have watched you for many years and you have behaved with nothing but dignity, grace and kindness online. You have been an inspiration to many for all the right reasons. I had no idea you went through those awful letters, I am sorry that happened to you.
This just made me think about how different I am to me about a month ago which is crazy as it’s such a short amount of time to become such a different person to who i was before!!
It’s always hard to look back on the past, but this video definitely helps so much to show how it’s normal and acceptable to become a new person and just think back to different versions of yourself without feeling bad or maybe even guilty in a way. I really enjoyed this video and i actually can’t wait to see what the future brings for you and others and how much everyone changes in such a short amount of time
Yessss I feel like when I “regenerate” feels like a new season of the tv show when the characters come back a little different. Cutting my hair pixie from long princess hair was a huge regeneration, amongst other ones. Like you said sounds superficial but there was much reason and meaning behind it for me. I am so sorry you were harassed with those posters, so violating ! Glad justice was finally served
I've just changed job, I moved to London just shy for 5 years ago. I feel I'm on my 4th regeneration and gosh it feels good to experience new things!
The being 20-23 and refusing to ask for help because “I can do it and I’m an adult” god I feel that looking back on that age of myself.
This was such a great reflection, thanks for sharing it with us.
I remember the first video, I can’t remember when I started following you but I’ve loved watching you grow and change and I’m happy to see you happy.
Wow Carrie, it's so interesting to listen and hear your experiences and know that you've gone through all that and still tried to be the best version of yourself at each point.
I know for a fact that I am a completely different person now to who I was when I was 18-21 years old and that's ok, because I like who I am right now and feel I can be more of who I want to be. Somethings I have done slowly and thought about for a long time and others I've just gone f it let's do it. Everyone is different and has their own boundaries and hurdles to cross when they feel ready and that is perfectly OK.
It really can take its toll on you both physically and mentally when you are your in a bad situation or time and just by stepping away and viewing it from different angles you realise how to make you, you again or a better version of you.
I love that your word of the year is embrace and that you've embracing every version of yourself and enjoying yourself while you do. I wish you luck on your journey of exploring and embrace the versions of you. Xxx ❤
After watching this video, all i have to say is... I appreciate you Carrie! I was grinning by the end about how happy I am for you!
Such a lovely video, was quite comforting seeeing that your close group of friends came in your mid twenties as I’m currently at college and although I’ve got some lovely people it’s not a group of people I could easily turn to and it’s nice to know that at this age you don’t have to have everything sorted out just yet. ❤
I'm in Canada, and discovered you when Cinderella was being released, I've been a follower ever since. This video is beautiful. I hope one day I can piece together past versions of myself as you have. ❤
I loved this video as I’m going through the same as you. Where I went through a massive breakup I was with him since I was 17 and broke up when we were 29 (last year) and it took a year for me to say I love this version of me which I have never said ever and I’m so excited for my future. Congratulations on your new version and your marriage ❤
Love this! Really glad to hear that you are the happiest you’ve been! You’ve been through a huge journey in life so far and navigating it must have been hard at times. You’re a wonderful human and deserve to be happy xx
That's very sweet of you! I've had a great life and sometimes it's hard to navigate videos like this because I know in the grand scheme of things so many people have had a horrendous time of it and my problems are minuscule in comparison! But I also think it's good to reflect on the good and bad times and had a little look at how far you've come every now and then!
@@Carrie I know it’s hard for us to feel like our feelings can be less important than other people who may have had a more horrendous time, but our feelings are valid and everything is subjective. I can’t begin to imagine how horrible some of these things were for you. This video is an amazing way to look back and see just how much you’ve grown and how far you’ve come! I constantly look for reassurance and validation from other people and although I’ve not seen a therapist, hearing you, as someone I admire talk about similar feelings and your experiences makes me feel understood. ♥️ xx
I found this video so interesting. Made me think about some of the things in my life- not the first Carrie Hope Fletcher vlog to make me do this. Love watching her videos!
Awww i am so happy for you and that you love who you are right now. It makes me happy 😁
The joy you are finding in yourself shines out of this video. What a simple, powerful thing to like ones self ❤
This video has left me reflecting on my ownself. Thank you
Thank you for sharing your regenerations and your reflections on these regenerations with us. Although I feel stagnant in some ways, this video makes me want to dig a little deeper into myself to see who I've been over the past 10 years and who I have the chance to be going forward
I was 16 when I started watching your channel. Now I’m 26😅 Feels so weird the different versions of me I’ve gone through in that time!
I’m now the age you were when you made that first video, I still look back through the past versions of myself and if I’m honest didn’t thoroughly enjoy those versions of myself
Congratulations on your wedding ♥️
I think this is exactly what I needed to hear today. Thanks Carrie ❤
I like me too Carrie! It's taken a long time to get here but man is it a cool place to be. 😊
Edgar was like "Who was it? I will fight them!" 😆
I'm so sorry that you were subject to this scary abuse, stalking or what you would call it. Mental abuse? But I only discovered you a few months ago. You are truly beautiful inside and out. Your voice is incredible and I'm so glad you're happy. BTW are you ever going to visit all 4 Disney parks in the same year?
Such a thoughtful and lovely way to go forward! Best Wishes for your next adventure ✨️ ❤️
Hey @Carrie you should auditioned as the 2nd Rani in RTD's version of DW!
Carrie i’m absolutely shocked that you had to go through that 😮 some people are just fucking disgusting i’m so glad that you’ve got the help I love therapy sending you all my love 🫶🫶❤️x
re: feeling that you were immature in your early 20s: i (somehow) still remember your 20th birthday video where you said "i'm not twenty i'm twenTEEN" haha
Carrie, he had us ALL FOOLED. He had me fooled FOR SURE. I can't imagine what it must have been like for you when that news broke. I was just a fangirl on the outside and I still remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when I heard the news. It really shook me. My boyfriend I was with at the time did not understand why I was so upset. I'm around the same age as you and have been here since the beginning and I remember you and all the other women affected handling it SO well. Sending you lots of love to all your versions from the USA
Very interesting video, I really enjoyed it! I struggle to distance my present selve from my past selves. It's hard for me to see any growth or development. I mean, I know I'm not the same but I feel like I'm still struggling with same issues I had when I was 13.
I really needed a Carrie video today and this really spoke to me 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@Carrie aww thanks for the reply much appreciated, your videos always put a smile on my face 🙂
Love these style videos ❤
Carrie this video is amazing and I really enjoyed watching it as you are telling us version of yourself.
You amazing how far you have come. You. Were amazing and awesome in Bad Cinderella the best it was so hard when it finished the you were the best Bad Cinderella. Also Carrie your my favourite actress and author. Also thank you for doing this video as this has really helped me. Also lots of things you said is absolutely right as I am struggling because I don’t know what my future is going to be. And this video has really helped thank you Carrie
This video was very good you was great as bad Cinderella show I crying when it left the west end one of bad Cinderella was a lot better you was so sweet as Cinderella your singing was so good I have your bad Cinderella cd thanks for playing Cinderella good luck on what you do nest ❤❤❤❤
I hadn't seen you in a while, and this has been so delightful to come back and see you've been going at it and doing your best & seeking out your best self. I'll be 30 in June, and I relate to so much of what you've said! 🤗🫶✨️
When your 18 you feel grown up, when your 28 you look back and realise you knew nothing.
When your 38 you look back and realise you knew even less.
I’m not sure this ever changes tho 🤣
I call those changes „Phoenix times“ :)
I love this so awesome thank you for this I found it very interesting and refreshing ❤️❤️❤️
but where can I buy this sweater and lip color?
Ahhh i love dr who too!!!
The beauty of getting older is learning. I was in a very emotionally abusive relationship from age 19-21 and now at 28, I look back and wonder how I ever allowed that person to do that to me. If anyone tried it now, I'd send them packing. It's interesting to look back and see how far we have come ❤️❤️ Its mad to think I've been watching your videos for nearly a decade!!
I went to uni and it had good times but i was so unprepared and my mental health suffered badly
Dear Carrie (ha! Talk about a blast from the past!) I wanted to thank you for this video It has made me want to look back at my own life and do the same so thank you. I hope you're doing well (secretly hoping you reply to this comment)
Kind regards Zoe
WHERE CAN I BUY THAT SHIRT?!
THE ERAS
But Carrie, where is your jumper from????????
Oliver Bonas! ♥️
🫀♥️❤️

You was the best Cinderella the was
It’s so interesting watching this, as I only came to know you in August 2020…💜🫶💜 Growth is Growth no matter SMALL or big 🤩
That’s such a cool way of reflecting! I love the idea and it works so wonderfully. The ability to look back on your past with less judgement and more sympathy is such an important thing I think, to acknowledge that you did the best with the knowledge you had - something I still struggle to do 😅
Also it’s so evident in the way you just came into your full sparkle at the end of the video just how happy you are and it’s beautiful to see!
Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed watching! I've found as you get older, judgement takes a lot more effort that acknowledgement, acceptance and moving on. I'm tired of judgement both of and from myself so I'm trying to make the conscious decision to just embrace and let go.
"into your full sparkle" is such an impactful description 😍
As someone who’s been here since the beginning, turning 25 this year, this was lovely. I remember each of those versions, and the versions of myself that I was then, too☺️
same ❤
Ahhh I feel the same too and it really gives me hope that we're not finished yet! I always have a feeling everybody knows who they are and have found their place but me... But everybody moves at their own pace I guess and the future is bright
I started watching your videos back in 2016 when I was about 14 or 15. I really needed a big sister figure in my life and you welcomed me in as my "internet big sister". I'm about to turn 22 and I can also say that right now this is my favourite version of myself. I'm really happy to hear the joy you've found in embracing yourself. As your internet little sister I am proud of you and sending as much love a stranger on the internet can
This video was so refreshing, in some way! I’m going through a weird moment with A levels and making a massive decision to not go to Uni, but I finally feel excited to see what’s going to happen next! I really needed this video to realised that these decisions 100% needed to be made!! Here’s to the next version of me AHH thank you Carrie as always! 💚
I love that you're excited about whatever comes next! That IS exciting! Sending you love and luck for the future!
