If he found another then it's his loss and your gain. Keep your head up sweetie! Your beautiful and somewhere down the road you will find someone that will treat you the way you deserve to be treated and do not DO NOT settle for any less than you deserve!
Thank you, again, for everything you are sharing! I don't know if you realize how good of an impact you can have on someone else going through a similar situation. You should be really proud of yourself for getting though this season of life and for helping others along the way! Wishing you all the best 🥰
At a time when I was really down I heard something that changed me, now, this might sound really silly but good old Mr. Rogers once said " You are special". And maybe said why. I saw something once that said. "God doesn't make junk". Those words may have saved me, more than once. I am absolutely sure that anyone that you have ever come in contact with thinks you are amazing and have so very much to offer. Much love Michel !😘💖
Michel - I’m going through something similar with almost similar timing as yours and I cannot begin to express how much your videos have helped me. It is helping me to process my own emotions. Thank you! I really enjoy the heart to heart convos. Please don’t ever stop them 🤗❤️❤️
Getting to do life alongside you and the other friends is the most wonderful thing I could ask for. Thank you for your support and I’m so sorry you are also going through a similarly tough season 🤍
You should book a full day at a day spa to pamper yourself on your staycation! You need it.. you deserve it. And you will build even more confidence! Love you!
Wow yes! “Comparison is the biggest theft of confidence!” I love your car chats so much! The message was amazing and something I needed to hear! Thank you! 💛
People working internet need to learn to be more vulnerable like you're doing. This shows all of us that having a normal life with normal human feelings is not wrong or failure. Is just what looks like to be a person. Thanks for that and so much motivation to keep doing what you love and being the best version of yourself through life.
I’ve heard comparison is the thief of joy. I do think that humility becomes a confidence in Gods purpose for our lives, and trusting God gives us a sense of peace and a stronghold when life is impossibly hard. Also I think the more we look at ourselves the sadder we get, because we are broken mirrors made for something greater by a wonderful creator. I agree about the comparison, thankful you’ve been encouraged by church too! That’s so awesome!
I'm going through the same situation. Unfortunately in Germany one has to wait one year until filing for divorce. Celebrate your freedom and new beginnings. Difficulties make you grow, so be proud that God chose you to rise and shine.❤️
Hello, going through the same situation as you. When you announced your divorce I was just at the same situation as you. My husband came with this divorce thing. And as the time is flying I am so glad and sad at the same time. We got this. We are still young and we can be happy. 25 is not that bad. Wish you the best. ❤️
This was so timely. I’ve been having to humble myself lately about comparing in other ways, which unchecked has lead to a little bitterness. Literally yesterday I had a moment of clarity about what is in front of me, what I have & what I can offer despite things out of my control. This is a great reminder. ❤️ I know it’s very hard to feel not chosen. Keep on keeping on.
Michel I just need to tell you that you deserve happiness. You deserve to be chosen. Nothing is wrong with you. You did your best. Make your life the best. Be happy. 💜
Really craving some healing podcasts from you, Michel! Going through a similar time of self discovery and healing after a long relationship and your voice is such a wonderful companion through that.
Your strength is so encouraging. There are days, I just want to lay in bed, and sleep for a week. Watching your videos make me want to do better, go to the gym, work on myself. Thank you for that!! God Bless, and have an amazing week!!
It’s amazing how open you are being through this. That’s really going to help someone one day. And, real life is hard and I hate seeing other youtubers pretend everything is just sunshine. When that’s not life. Thank you for being open and real.
I think it's so great you are meeting people in your building and at church. Go, Michel! 🤗 we will be thinking of you and sending warm, positive thoughts your way on the 2nd. ❤
Great vid! Seed: I'm 54 and have ordered my first order of Seed. I expect to start it next week. Car Chat: My husband and I have raised our son with the phrase, "Humble Confidence." It has been important to us to instill the good part of being confident, while keeping your cool and not letting yourself become arrogant. D after D: Dorm after Divorce---LOL--I did this--literally. I went to college my Freshman year, in a dorm then got married (EEEEK), then divorced before my 3rd year of college. At that time, I chose to live in an Upper Classman Dorm and felt really weird, goofy, over-experienced and saw my peers as almost child-like with "no idea" what life is about, etc. Ultimately, it was the best decision I made. I met great friends (who are still great friends of mine) and gave me more support than I realized I needed. I didn't have good support from my family, so this was crucial. I won't say it was 100% healthy--too much partying, but I made it out of the doldrums of young divorced life and was proud of it! Take care and continue to work through your situation with the patience you show in your vids and with your loving family nearby. :))))
Michel, your vlogs have brought me so much joy lately! My husband's in the military & this is a crazy time for us, but putting on your vlogs while I work has been such a blessing. Love seeing you grow and thrive!
Always enjoy watching you. First time commenting!! I just want you to know that you Inspire me. I have been in your shoes once. That was 20 years ago but if you had this video back then, I would've been alot stronger after watching you. I am currently going through recovery from addiction and just hearing your inspiring words and videos keeps me strong and never giving up. Thank you for this so very much.
Your car chats have helped me so much during this time of me ending a relationship I thought was forever. Thank you so much for being vulnerable during this time, I don’t think you realize how much you’re helping people ❤️
I really enjoy all the honest vlogs. I am praying for you during this time. I haven't been in your situation but have had other difficult seasons and it is so nice to see people being honest, it helps us feel less alone during our hard times. I think so many of us feel so isolated during difficult times. Thanks for sharing.
Your vlogs bring me such comfort and joy. I don’t have any friends really so these vlogs you post throughout the week make me feel like I have a friend in this world. Makes me happy, and a little sad at the same time cause I know you don’t REALLY know me enough to truly care for me, but I don’t know, it’s still nice. :) thanks for being you and sharing that with us.
Hey Michel 🌼 It's breathtaking to see the Lord using your trials to build a strong character. Your new "season" in life journey just makes you glow with peace and joy. So wonderful to see that self-confidence and optismism. 🌼 You are so inspirational 💗
Thank you for always being so open about what you’re dealing with internally and sharing this message for the day. So many of your thoughts resonate with me on these hard topics. I appreciate you being unapologetically who you are especially through this challenging season. Side note: I was telling my husband about how I saw your seed ad a while ago and we should get him started on a subscription since he has been having digestive challenges and I remembered you talking about how great they were. Excited to see they also do a military discount for him!
Everytime I see you post another video I get so excited you have become one of my favorite RUclipsrs. You're so authentic and honesty and loving and caring. Thank you so much for being you and thank you so much for including us in some of your life.
I’ve loved your videos so much and I’m bingeing !! Wish i would’ve found you long ago - been going through a rough time and you videos have helped so much to brighten my days and give hope!
“She questioned her own worth, at times, because of the scars the had picked up along the journey. But then she heard God whisper you are mine, The Daughter of the King! Don’t forget who you are!” ✨ 🙏🏻💪🏻✨
I've been watching you a little over a year and I just wanted to tell you I love you! I pray for you often! You make me happy and feel better and I pray everything that you are going through will get better and I hope you stay happy and positive! I hope one day I can meet you! Best wishes! 💜💙
I am so happy you have a lot of new friends in your building. That is awesome. I hope you have fun on your staycation. I’m sure you will have a few difficult moments in the next week, but stay focused on the new changes and good things you are doing for yourself.
We live in a world of instant gratification or I think they call it the microwave world: so on top of trying not to compare myself to everyone else, I also have to focus on baby steps when it comes to achieving my goals, rather than instant gratification. Thank you for humbly speaking from the heart today. Like you I have experienced so many rocky ups and down feelings getting adjusted in another separation that I never choose, but due to the ability to solve conflict and talk through issues in a conducive way - I don't know. One day I think I've got this thing called life by the horns and another I'm depressed wanting to be enough, when I've been told constantly I'm not enough or I'm not good enough. Anyways thanks for sharing your void of confidence with us. Life is sure a roller coaster of emotions and opposites attract in more negative ways then positive ones.
Genuinely more than anything, I just want you to be happy. I think you’re such an amazing person & it’s truly amazing to see you try new places and new activities. I get to live through these videos 🥲💗 I’m 23 and have 1 friend, I don’t drink either. I never go any where or do anything though 😅 I wish I was more like you and had the confidence and excitement for life the way you do!
So proud of you beautiful!!! I have children your age- started young. Subsequent divorce- you’re handling it all with goodness & grace -grit will push you on those hard days- remember to be gentle-you’re amazing-that’s all.
I'm old now but I went thru it too and have the perspective of age now. Its always a hit to the confidence when we are not chosen...but hold on a sec. We always say we weren't chosen why? what did or didn't I do ? why wasn't I good enough. Remember there are two sides to this and you are just self -judging. remember there is his side and there well may be weaknesses or flaws in him. He may be insecure and your confidence was just too much or you are so energetic and a real goal setter and maybe he just couldn't match your energy or ambition to thrive. Look at the whole picture. We always assume it was a lacking in ourselves when often the opposite is true.
That confidence chat, with the analogy and everything, was so good. It made me feel better. I’ve been trying to conceive for more than 3 years by now, IVF treatments included, and sometimes I feel awful, like I’m damaged in some way, and sometimes it’s hard to not compare myself with my friends who were able to conceive and have children. That makes me feel twice as awful, because I don’t like to do that and feel that way. I feel like a bad person for having those feelings. After hearing you, I’ve realized that maybe God has other plans for me and I felt a little bit better. Thanks Michel for sharing that 💜💜💜
The tan looks so good. I love the color it gives you. So pretty! I hope you enjoyed the party for your neighbor. I can’t imagine the emotions you are facing but I’m so glad you have your family and this beautiful space to grow.
Thank you for this. I was feeling the same way in terms of why am I not the one chosen? Why am I not good enough? Still learning to deal and also appreciate all the good things about me. Praying one day my person will see and appreciate all my good.
I could be your mom age wise. I have 2 wonderful daughters a bit older than you. I went thru the same thing when I was your age. (So thankful we had no children together)! I didn't understand it at the time but the Lord brought me through it into a wonderful life I hadn't imagined! Thirty One years later I still pinch myself and accept God's Grace for me! You are such a beautiful woman! I must acknowledge your parents did a great job in raising you! Kuddos to them! It's fun to see the friendship you have with your parents! Oh last but not least you should be doing skin care commercials for the obvious reasons... Your skin is beautiful!!!
Michel, your videos are such a pleasure to watch! Even though I'm older than you, I'm learning so much from you and how mindful you are recapping what has been going on in your life. I'm so glad I found your channel and know that you're processing this time in your life with so much strength and grace and patience with yourself, we're all rooting for you big time! ❤️
Thank you for sharing this, I have rheumatoid arthritis and I am constantly looking for probiotics. Also, thank you so much for sharing that message from your church. I have purposely stayed off of social media for that reason. I feel like every time I log on, I see how great people are doing, and how what great success they have. I hated comparing myself to other people all the time. This message was beautiful, not one person is the same and we all have unique abilities, and they are all special and important. Thank you for helping me realize this.
You loved with all your might and that is not only kind of rare but very admirable. I wouldn’t change who you are. Unfortunately we all attract all kinds of souls, but like you we are responsible for keeping these people in our lives or not.
You are a beautiful person inside and out and if your husband chose another over you, I think he will regret it later on. It maybe that being faithful is a character flaw in him and has nothing to do with you. I have known friends that married people like that and some stayed with that mate but they never changed. It is sad situation to be in but I am glad that you are letting go. This would not be the life you would want to live.
I dont know why, but hearing Michel say "I love you" at the end really got to me and made me tear up. I needed that today and I'm sure I'm not the oonly one
Thank you again for sharing your experiences. It is so helpful. Even though I am a therapist, and I have a wonderful therapist of my own, it's amazing to be able to watch your vlogs and read the comments and know others are going through similar struggles. I've been slowly finding out some truly devastating things about my soon to be ex-husband and it's been a real confidence killer. It even started to overflow into me doubting my own ability to help others, which I know isn't a fair or truthful feeling, but that initial "not good enough" is hard to deal with!!! Even though religion isn't something that was a positive thing for me, I really appreciate you sharing the wisdom from the sermon. :) You are doing such a brave and kind thing by being so open about your life.
You're so amazing Michel. Right now you are counting milestones from the past, and I believe one day you will have created so many new memories with new people that those dates will pass without you even noticing they used to be sad. You are an overcomer. ❤❤❤
About the birthdays and the ending of your marriage: One event has absolutely nothing to do with the other. It is merely coincidence that they line up. Please don’t ever let the sad ones interfere with the importance of your birthday (and his birthday is no longer significant to your life).
I absolutely love watching all of your videos. With both of us being in our 20s I just feel a genuine connection even though you don’t know me. I love how you carry yourself and how you process situations. I just wish I had a michel in NC haha!!
The confidence chat came at such a good time. I'm starting to learn and accept how confidence can ebb and flow throughout our lives, and it's good to keep in mind how we each have our own special strengths that are useful in different times and different situations.
I’m 20 years older than you, but your videos are so great and I’m cheering for you in this new chapter. I had a similar time in my early/mid 20s after splitting with my college bf/fiancé. It all worked out for me and you’re wiser than I was then! Also, can you link the green fleece you wore in your car after yoga? It is so cute!
It's amazing how quick and easy it is (on paper) to get married and how painful, expensive and mentally draining the legal system makes it for people going through a divorce. Sending you well wishes, I've been through it and can't wait for you to feel full relief in the near future.
I don't watch your videos right away I wait till you post at least 3 so I watch them in bulk because I just love your videos your an amazing person just remember it's ok to have some bad days love you 💖💖💖💖
Michel, just was thinking...have you ever seen the movie "First Wives Club?" It takes divorce to a level of appreciation mixed with a little laughter. Somewhat uplifting movie!
Just saying...woman need to see their qualities, purpose, talents, gifts and capabilities that they can share with others! Enjoy exploring the new and improved Michel! Exploring the you inside! Blessings to you!
Omg the birds hitting your car when you were parked was scary!! Also I love the dorm realization. Glad you are getting that experience! Community and friends being close was my favorite thing at college.
I really needed to see this video. It touches home in so many aspects. Thank you for sharing it means so much! Your amazing and I love you 😘 have a wonderful day Michel
Seed has been so amazing......as a product AND a company. When the tornadoes hit Kentucky, we all got an e-mail from them asking if we needed to modify mailing addresses or have them hold our orders until we could get things figured out.
Michel, look up the book “ The Defining Decade”. It’s all about navigating your 20s and it is a great read or listen. The author gave a similar example to the saw and hammer - it’s a great read! 😊
Hey girly, just wanted to say that you’re very inspirational and I love hearing what you learned in church! Could you do more faith related videos in the future?
Hi friend Michel you are such an inspiration to us❤️❤️❤️❤️. I feel that getting the divorce over with soon will help expedite your new life and making new experiences. You have a brand new future ahead of you so excited for you.
Michel I have to tell you that I was laughing so hard when the birds were swarming & attacking your car 🤣🐦🕊️! I felt like I was watching a real life scene from a movie like the classic movie The Birds. If you've never seen it I'd suggest getting some 🍿, a friend or parents & watch it together. *On a more personal note I want to tell you that working on your confidence is a great & healthy idea. I'm so happy to hear that you are catching onto God speaking. It was no coincidence that the subject for the msg @ church was on confidence. God is speaking & confirming to you what He wants you to do. God is so good!! Prayers & Wishes Lisa Hampton 😃
The Birds: my friend went as Tippy Hedren one Halloween. It was hilarious. She had the 1950’s dress suit, a wig with a black bird attached, her hair & pillbox hat was tousled. Her costume was impressively completed with another blackbird hot glued onto her shoulder & several drippings of bird droppings!!
If he found another then it's his loss and your gain. Keep your head up sweetie! Your beautiful and somewhere down the road you will find someone that will treat you the way you deserve to be treated and do not DO NOT settle for any less than you deserve!
Thank you, again, for everything you are sharing! I don't know if you realize how good of an impact you can have on someone else going through a similar situation. You should be really proud of yourself for getting though this season of life and for helping others along the way! Wishing you all the best 🥰
comments like this SERIOUSLY help me when I have moments of anxiousness about over-sharing. Thank you for saying this 🤍
I always feel like Max barks at the right moment for you. He lets you know that “Hey! Snap out of it!” or “Let’s go mom!!!” He’s the sweetest:)
At a time when I was really down I heard something that changed me, now, this might sound really silly but good old Mr. Rogers once said " You are special". And maybe said why. I saw something once that said. "God doesn't make junk". Those words may have saved me, more than once. I am absolutely sure that anyone that you have ever come in contact with thinks you are amazing and have so very much to offer. Much love Michel !😘💖

You should book a full day at a day spa to pamper yourself on your staycation! You need it.. you deserve it. And you will build even more confidence! Love you!
AWE! I might’ve booked a massage👀🥰 love you!
Wow yes! “Comparison is the biggest theft of confidence!” I love your car chats so much! The message was amazing and something I needed to hear! Thank you! 💛
I’m so glad it resonated with you 🥰
Your pastor delivered a good message, I’m glad you found a church you like.
Michel, you look SO beautiful as your natural self, without fake tan. Your natural complexion really brings out your lovely features. ❤️
We accept the love we think we deserve. That is why self-steem and confidence are so important.
People working internet need to learn to be more vulnerable like you're doing. This shows all of us that having a normal life with normal human feelings is not wrong or failure. Is just what looks like to be a person. Thanks for that and so much motivation to keep doing what you love and being the best version of yourself through life.
I’ve heard comparison is the thief of joy. I do think that humility becomes a confidence in Gods purpose for our lives, and trusting God gives us a sense of peace and a stronghold when life is impossibly hard.

I agree about the comparison, thankful you’ve been encouraged by church too! That’s so awesome!
I love that analogy. It is perfect. I’m 70 and have learned so much from you.
I'm going through the same situation. Unfortunately in Germany one has to wait one year until filing for divorce. Celebrate your freedom and new beginnings.
Difficulties make you grow, so be proud that God chose you to rise and shine.❤️
Hello, going through the same situation as you. When you announced your divorce I was just at the same situation as you. My husband came with this divorce thing. And as the time is flying I am so glad and sad at the same time. We got this. We are still young and we can be happy. 25 is not that bad. Wish you the best. ❤️
This was so timely. I’ve been having to humble myself lately about comparing in other ways, which unchecked has lead to a little bitterness. Literally yesterday I had a moment of clarity about what is in front of me, what I have & what I can offer despite things out of my control. This is a great reminder. ❤️ I know it’s very hard to feel not chosen. Keep on keeping on.
We love moments of clarity 🤍 Proud of you, friend
Michel I just need to tell you that you deserve happiness. You deserve to be chosen. Nothing is wrong with you. You did your best. Make your life the best. Be happy. 💜
Really craving some healing podcasts from you, Michel! Going through a similar time of self discovery and healing after a long relationship and your voice is such a wonderful companion through that.
Also, Isle of Paradise daily hyaluronic acid tanning serum is so moisturizing, easy to use regularly, doesn't stain stuff!
Your strength is so encouraging. There are days, I just want to lay in bed, and sleep for a week. Watching your videos make me want to do better, go to the gym, work on myself. Thank you for that!! God Bless, and have an amazing week!!
It’s amazing how open you are being through this. That’s really going to help someone one day. And, real life is hard and I hate seeing other youtubers pretend everything is just sunshine. When that’s not life. Thank you for being open and real.
I think it's so great you are meeting people in your building and at church. Go, Michel! 🤗 we will be thinking of you and sending warm, positive thoughts your way on the 2nd. ❤
LOVE the saw and hammer analogy, I'm definite guilty of comparing myself but we all have our own unique qualities.
Great vid!

Take care and continue to work through your situation with the patience you show in your vids and with your loving family nearby. :))))
I love hearing other people’s experiences. What a unique time in life full of memories that will never be taken away. 🤍
The code didn't work for me 😔 I just tried it, I'm going to try again, I too want to try them.
Michel, your vlogs have brought me so much joy lately! My husband's in the military & this is a crazy time for us, but putting on your vlogs while I work has been such a blessing. Love seeing you grow and thrive!
Always enjoy watching you. First time commenting!! I just want you to know that you Inspire me. I have been in your shoes once. That was 20 years ago but if you had this video back then, I would've been alot stronger after watching you. I am currently going through recovery from addiction and just hearing your inspiring words and videos keeps me strong and never giving up. Thank you for this so very much.
Seing you so strong its helps me, My boyfriend and I broke up yesterday and its so painful. But seeing you helps me get thru it
Your car chats have helped me so much during this time of me ending a relationship I thought was forever. Thank you so much for being vulnerable during this time, I don’t think you realize how much you’re helping people ❤️
I really enjoy all the honest vlogs. I am praying for you during this time. I haven't been in your situation but have had other difficult seasons and it is so nice to see people being honest, it helps us feel less alone during our hard times. I think so many of us feel so isolated during difficult times. Thanks for sharing.
Your vlogs bring me such comfort and joy. I don’t have any friends really so these vlogs you post throughout the week make me feel like I have a friend in this world. Makes me happy, and a little sad at the same time cause I know you don’t REALLY know me enough to truly care for me, but I don’t know, it’s still nice. :) thanks for being you and sharing that with us.
Hey Michel 🌼
It's breathtaking to see the Lord using your trials to build a strong character.
Your new "season" in life journey just makes you glow with peace and joy. So wonderful to see that self-confidence and optismism. 🌼
You are so inspirational 💗
This absolutely made my day 🥺
🤗
My divorce was finalized on my birthday. I was in an abusive relationship so, to me, it was the best birthday present ever.
Thank you for always being so open about what you’re dealing with internally and sharing this message for the day. So many of your thoughts resonate with me on these hard topics. I appreciate you being unapologetically who you are especially through this challenging season.
Side note:
I was telling my husband about how I saw your seed ad a while ago and we should get him started on a subscription since he has been having digestive challenges and I remembered you talking about how great they were. Excited to see they also do a military discount for him!
My 8 month old son adores watching you on our TV. Thank you for getting him to stop crying 😅
Everytime I see you post another video I get so excited you have become one of my favorite RUclipsrs. You're so authentic and honesty and loving and caring. Thank you so much for being you and thank you so much for including us in some of your life.
Sooo happy for your social living situation, it’s so much fun and doesn’t matter when in life it happens! ❤️
Loving that you're pushing yourself to meet your neighbors and going to that party!! ❤️
I’ve loved your videos so much and I’m bingeing !! Wish i would’ve found you long ago - been going through a rough time and you videos have helped so much to brighten my days and give hope!

Thank you for this. I was feeling the same way in terms of why am I not the one chosen? Why am I not good enough? Still learning to deal and also appreciate all the good things about me. Praying one day my person will see and appreciate all my good.
I could be your mom age wise. I have 2 wonderful daughters a bit older than you. I went thru the same thing when I was your age. (So thankful we had no children together)! I didn't understand it at the time but the Lord brought me through it into a wonderful life I hadn't imagined! Thirty One years later I still pinch myself and accept God's Grace for me! You are such a beautiful woman! I must acknowledge your parents did a great job in raising you! Kuddos to them! It's fun to see the friendship you have with your parents! Oh last but not least you should be doing skin care commercials for the obvious reasons... Your skin is beautiful!!!
Michel, your videos are such a pleasure to watch! Even though I'm older than you, I'm learning so much from you and how mindful you are recapping what has been going on in your life. I'm so glad I found your channel and know that you're processing this time in your life with so much strength and grace and patience with yourself, we're all rooting for you big time! ❤️
Thank you for sharing this, I have rheumatoid arthritis and I am constantly looking for probiotics. Also, thank you so much for sharing that message from your church. I have purposely stayed off of social media for that reason. I feel like every time I log on, I see how great people are doing, and how what great success they have. I hated comparing myself to other people all the time. This message was beautiful, not one person is the same and we all have unique abilities, and they are all special and important. Thank you for helping me realize this.
This was uplifting, I just found you not too long ago, I feel like a new intro might be a good way to move on to the next chapter in your life too!
You loved with all your might and that is not only kind of rare but very admirable. I wouldn’t change who you are. Unfortunately we all attract all kinds of souls, but like you we are responsible for keeping these people in our lives or not.
Sending hugs michel. I love hugs because they make me feel better. 🤎
Some exciting things coming your way...
I am glad you are focusing on confidence. You are an amazing person.
Thank you, Michel for being such a positive light in my life right now.
You are a beautiful person inside and out and if your husband chose another over you, I think he will regret it later on. It maybe that being faithful is a character flaw in him and has nothing to do with you. I have known friends that married people like that and some stayed with that mate but they never changed. It is sad situation to be in but I am glad that you are letting go. This would not be the life you would want to live.
What a great sermon from your Pastor! It is so true. Thank you for sharing.
I dont know why, but hearing Michel say "I love you" at the end really got to me and made me tear up. I needed that today and I'm sure I'm not the oonly one
Your vlogs are easily my favorite videos🤍 also so stinkin proud of you!
Thank you again for sharing your experiences. It is so helpful. Even though I am a therapist, and I have a wonderful therapist of my own, it's amazing to be able to watch your vlogs and read the comments and know others are going through similar struggles. I've been slowly finding out some truly devastating things about my soon to be ex-husband and it's been a real confidence killer. It even started to overflow into me doubting my own ability to help others, which I know isn't a fair or truthful feeling, but that initial "not good enough" is hard to deal with!!! Even though religion isn't something that was a positive thing for me, I really appreciate you sharing the wisdom from the sermon. :) You are doing such a brave and kind thing by being so open about your life.
You're so amazing Michel. Right now you are counting milestones from the past, and I believe one day you will have created so many new memories with new people that those dates will pass without you even noticing they used to be sad. You are an overcomer. ❤❤❤
About the birthdays and the ending of your marriage: One event has absolutely nothing to do with the other. It is merely coincidence that they line up. Please don’t ever let the sad ones interfere with the importance of your birthday (and his birthday is no longer significant to your life).
I absolutely love watching all of your videos. With both of us being in our 20s I just feel a genuine connection even though you don’t know me. I love how you carry yourself and how you process situations. I just wish I had a michel in NC haha!!
stumbled upon your channel randomly a few weeks ago and now look so forward to these vlogs 🥰
Thank you for sharing the bone broth information along with everything else. So unique from the other streamers! Sending Love.
My divorce just became final 1/27/22. After 22 years, and we live in Texas too. All will be well, never forget to treat yourself, and enjoy life!
Michel- love your videos and you!!
Could you link the confidence sermon? I’d love to listen to it!
I'm going through very different things, but I've needed your confidence conversations today, so thank you. Love you 💕
The confidence chat came at such a good time. I'm starting to learn and accept how confidence can ebb and flow throughout our lives, and it's good to keep in mind how we each have our own special strengths that are useful in different times and different situations.
God truly chose this apartment complex for you for your season of healing and hope 💖 xx friend!!
Here in the first five minutes 😭 just what I needed this afternoon!
Candle link please? Have a great week!
I’m 20 years older than you, but your videos are so great and I’m cheering for you in this new chapter. I had a similar time in my early/mid 20s after splitting with my college bf/fiancé. It all worked out for me and you’re wiser than I was then! Also, can you link the green fleece you wore in your car after yoga? It is so cute!
It's amazing how quick and easy it is (on paper) to get married and how painful, expensive and mentally draining the legal system makes it for people going through a divorce. Sending you well wishes, I've been through it and can't wait for you to feel full relief in the near future.
I don't watch your videos right away I wait till you post at least 3 so I watch them in bulk because I just love your videos your an amazing person just remember it's ok to have some bad days love you 💖💖💖💖
Beautiful metaphor for confidence. Thank you for sharing.
I just filed legally too! Your channel is so comforting me as I’m in my twenties too and we are going through the same process.
Such a positive vibe :) So much warmth!
Michel, just was thinking...have you ever seen the movie "First Wives Club?" It takes divorce to a level of appreciation mixed with a little laughter. Somewhat uplifting movie!
Just saying...woman need to see their qualities, purpose, talents, gifts and capabilities that they can share with others! Enjoy exploring the new and improved Michel! Exploring the you inside! Blessings to you!
I love that movie so much. Seen it so many times!
Omg the birds hitting your car when you were parked was scary!! Also I love the dorm realization. Glad you are getting that experience! Community and friends being close was my favorite thing at college.
I really needed to see this video. It touches home in so many aspects. Thank you for sharing it means so much! Your amazing and I love you 😘 have a wonderful day Michel
thanks for sharing your experience… it’s helped more than i realized
Thank you so much for talking about that sermon. It was so simple, but just what I needed to hear today! 💚
This was a lot of fun. We love you, too.
I just absolutely adore you and love watching your videos. I constantly wonder where you got the diffuser on your dresser? I absolutely love it!!
Loved this! I might actually look into seed now after I move this weekend! The vlogs have been so fun to watch!!!
Wishing you all the best! I just ordered Seed, I really hope it will help with digestive issues. Thank you for all you do and share with us. 💕
Seed has been so amazing......as a product AND a company. When the tornadoes hit Kentucky, we all got an e-mail from them asking if we needed to modify mailing addresses or have them hold our orders until we could get things figured out.
That is so cool! Glad to hear that!
I enjoy restorative yoga, too! I noticed that it’s only offered on Sunday nights at the different studios in my area.
I will be thinking of you all day tomorrow sending amazing energy ✨🙏🏼❤️
Michel, look up the book “ The Defining Decade”. It’s all about navigating your 20s and it is a great read or listen. The author gave a similar example to the saw and hammer - it’s a great read! 😊
Hey girly, just wanted to say that you’re very inspirational and I love hearing what you learned in church! Could you do more faith related videos in the future?
I've ordered the synbiotic!! I'm excited to try it.
I love your videos. I really liked the confidence theme. Also big fan of max.
Hi friend Michel you are such an inspiration to us❤️❤️❤️❤️. I feel that getting the divorce over with soon will help expedite your new life and making new experiences. You have a brand new future ahead of you so excited for you.
Thank you for being so open and honest!!
Michel I have to tell you that I was laughing so hard when the birds were swarming & attacking your car 🤣🐦🕊️! I felt like I was watching a real life scene from a movie like the classic movie The Birds. If you've never seen it I'd suggest getting some 🍿, a friend or parents & watch it together. *On a more personal note I want to tell you that working on your confidence is a great & healthy idea. I'm so happy to hear that you are catching onto God speaking. It was no coincidence that the subject for the msg @ church was on confidence. God is speaking & confirming to you what He wants you to do. God is so good!! Prayers & Wishes Lisa Hampton 😃
The Birds: my friend went as Tippy Hedren one Halloween. It was hilarious. She had the 1950’s dress suit, a wig with a black bird attached, her hair & pillbox hat was tousled. Her costume was impressively completed with another blackbird hot glued onto her shoulder & several drippings of bird droppings!!
Haha this is the movie I thought of as soon as I heard the bird hit her car
