    Im 60 from outside nyc. My daughter showed me your videos a couple years ago and i have watched you ever since. Your so honest and down to earth! I literally trust everything you say about makeup. I admire your independence and love that you teach others about your experience in failures and achievements. Im not your mom, but I am proud of you!

    I'm 41 years old, from Tennessee and at this time of my life I'm rediscovering myself. I have 2 boys (20 & 14) and have been married for almost 23 years. With my boys growing up so fast, I find myself reflecting on who I am....and what I want out of life. I'm not unhappy with where my life is, I guess I'm wondering what else I could do! 😊 I've always wanted to travel and see more of the world. You have inspired me to actually make that a reality. Thank you!💜🌯

    Taylor, I found you I think in 2015. I started getting really into RUclips and makeup after a huge breakup of a very toxic and abusive relationship that lasted my entire 20s. I was completely broken, turning 30 soon, and just figuring myself out for the first time. Makeup helped with that, and helped me find my confidence again. You’ve been with me through dating for the first time as a 30 year-old, heartbreaks, health issues, meeting my husband and getting married, navigating his health issues and almost dying, the accompanying PTSD, everything. I’ve traveled the silver hair debacle, Accutane, piercings and no piercings, relationships, and so much more with you. I’m currently 37, leaving education after almost 20 years to go do events and marketing for a brewery, trying to build my small woodworking business, and figuring out my new diagnoses of ADHD and chronic pain/illness. I truly consider you a friend, and I’ll be your IRL friend when you’re in Chicago! 🖤

    I'd recommend the book "the midnight library" by Matt Haig. It's about sampling different lives if you made a single choice that was different. We all have infinite lives we could have lived but every choice, no matter how small, puts us where we are today and maybe it really is the best path we could have had. It's a really good book and gets thoughts really working!

    I'm 33 years old, I just moved to the Netherlands from Florida, and I'm basically starting over here. I've been loving your nomad life, and I can relate so much to a lot of things you're going through! I struggle to remember that being in your 30's doesn't mean you're old, it just means you're stepping into the next chapter of your life, and I think once you hit 30, your life choices are just more impactful than they were in our 20's. Here's to another 10 years on RUclips! 💞

You motivate me to do more and not let my health issues hold me back! The fact that everything you do and all of the choices you make are done with kindness and beautiful intent are why we are happy to follow you through your life Journeys over the last 10 years. You are a joy to have in this community and I'm so thankful to have found you.

    Taylor, I, too, have chronic pain autoimmune issues. I’m 62, however, my spirit is really young and I feel like I get to experience vicariously through your travels seeing the different cities, states, countries and cultures. I sincerely admire you and how you push through as well as you listen to what your body needs. You’ve inspired me to be more firm with addressing my own needs. I’m a former people pleaser. I realize that realistically you could be my daughter, and as someone already has mentioned, I’m very proud of you and how you are making your dreams come true by your nomad living. I’m grateful for the impact you’ve made on me. I’m hoping to use what I’ve learned in life and from you to get me through an upcoming spinal fusion surgery that I’m scheduled for on December 6th. I sincerely feel blessed to receive all of the life lessons that I have learned from you. My adult daughter isn’t too keen on my transformation, which I see as evidence, that the more positive changes I’ve made 😅are actually as obvious as I had hoped.
    Thank you for your honesty, for showing us your vulnerability and for authenticity.
    It’s very much appreciated!!
    As we grow and transform into better versions of ourselves, others around us won’t be as thrilled about it, and I’m okay with that.
    I have some friends who I have had in my life for awhile and their responses have been so positive and encouraging.
    You, Taylor, are very much one of my favorite RUclips personalities that I make time for.
    Thank you so very much for all you do…💋

I’m 31, and it can be hard to make friends when you work remotely and don’t have kids, so I’m so thankful that I’ve made such great connections at my gym.

    I can so relate to this Taylor. I turn 30 in two months and I’m really excited for it but also really nervous about this next decade of life. I got married at 24 and thought I would be ready for kids by 30. Now that it’s right around the corner my husband and I both realize we are nowhere near ready for kids and are not sure we ever will be. I also am about to leave a career in the military after 11 years and start all over again in a completely different field (going back to school) which is both exciting and terrifying. Thank you for being so open and honest about the struggle to make the right decision, especially when it comes to huge life decisions. Sometimes it’s overwhelming knowing what is right for us, especially when we know we won’t get these years back. Best of luck to you in your decision making.

    I'm 26 and currently living in NC and when you started talking about traveling vs. staying in one place and building a community and feeling like you could have 15 different lives, it HIT me in the feels. I'm definitely in that weird transition place in life where I'm trying to figure out what is next and what I want and it's both exciting and stressful. You're one of the few RUclipsrs who I tend to watch the same day that you drop a video (especially ones like these, I adore your Shadow and Schmoozes) and I've watched you for at least 4-5 years and I've loved seeing how your channel changed and how you've grown and the fab makeup recs. Your digital nomad journey has really got me thinking (I'm spending the month of December in Thailand so that will be a big test for me for figuring out what's next) and I really appreciate the effort you've put into sharing this journey. It's been truly helpful and I'm excited and hopeful for what's next for you!

Honestly, I feel like I live vicariously through your travels because I’m too afraid to do it myself. And also because I have 2 kitties, which makes traveling difficult, lol. Keep doing what you love and please make all the sponsored videos, we love you and want you to make that coin beb! ❤

    Hey Taylor! I’m Kayleigh, I live in STL, Missouri, a 33 (next week) year old mama of 3 under 3. Having my kiddos makes me realize how many things I DIDN’T do before having them. I don’t regret my choices at all, but I will say take advantage of your time while you can. As for this time in my life, I’m learning how to balance being a mom of a toddler and infant twins, as well as trying to rediscover who I am… which isn’t going well. I’m also finishing my bachelors degree finally which will definitely feel like a huge accomplishment. Love watching your videos! 😊

I have an amazing husband, and 2 incredible young up and coming business leaders. Timing is really everything.

    Taylor, I really hope you have a chance to sit down and really read these comments when you have the time... Look at how many people's lives you have had such a big positive impact on by just being YOU! I am so excited for what the future holds for you and am sending you so much love from Las Vegas ❤. If you are ever here definitely feel free to reach out and I would love to hang out. Living here and vacationing here are two VERY different things (us locals never go to the Strip), so don't let the word "Vegas" scare you away. We are completely surrounded by national parks and have some of the best food in the world with a variety that is comparable to NYC at a fraction of the cost.

    Hi! I’m Colleen. I’m a wife and mom of 2 young adults with special needs. I’m a chronic pain sufferer as well. I don’t remember how long I’ve been a subscriber but I will continue to be one as long as you are making videos. I’ve learned so much from you, not only about makeup but about endurance, growth, being kind to oneself, being true to oneself, being brave, opening up about struggles with people who care, finding how to build yourself up without resorting to tearing others down, and I’m sure more that I’m not thinking of at the moment. In fact, my family and I are flying from Missouri to Hawaii next week for 5 weeks, and considering moving there. Your nomad journey was one thing that inspired me to want to try. Especially when you talked about how much happiness in your life can help manage pain. Anyway you’ll never know how much I appreciate you! Congrats on 10 years! Please just keep being you, and never feel like you should apologize for doing what you believe is best for you! Love ya! - Colleen

    You were one of the first RUclipsrs I ever watched. I’ve loved watching you grow and expand your brand through the years. It also is a nice reminder that there are still good and sane people in the world! I’m 42, married with 3 kids. As far as mental health, despite how hard the news can be in these times, this is the best I’ve felt mentally since high school. My 20s were the worst, the 30s were better, but I definitely have the most perspective in my 40s. I realize life is short and we aren’t promised anything so I try to be mindful and grateful! ❤

I always tell her about your videos. I even added her to my RUclips so she could follow you 😊 watching you travel solo has really helped me be ok with her traveling. It’s given me a little peace of mind. So thank you! She’s been doing it since she was 17. I also have a 24yr old named Ryleigh who is married to her high school sweetheart and they just had a baby girl this year. And my oldest daughter is a CPA in Bend Oregon:)

    Girl, you've been with me through so many phases of my life now! I'm a mama to 5 little ones so I absolutely love watching your travel videos and maybe slightly living vicariously through them. I think one of my favorite things about you is that you don't overshare your life. I feel like I respect people more who keep certain parts of their life private. You're one of the only youtubers who I really feel connected to, you're just so genuine and kind and your family and friends also just seem like such amazing people.

Such awesome accomplishments! You're truly an inspiration and I can't wait to see what you decide this coming chapter of your life will be. I'm currently waiting to start my new job (also waiting for work visa to come through) and thinking about doing voice over work as a side hustle.

I'm now 20 and in college in Pittsburgh, PA! I have learned a lot from you, and definitely not just about makeup, and you inspire me honestly. I admire your independence and drive to do things you really want to do. I hope to have the time (and means) to travel once I (hopefully) complete a doctoral program. You really motivate me to go after what I want. Your videos never fail to comfort me. Happy 10 years

And now your videos work as a therapy for me because you don’t talk about the war so I can forget about it for 20-30 minutes.
    I had a dream for quite some time to go to Croatia and Dubrovnik in particular since my major in university was linguistics and I studied Serbian and Croatian languages and culture. So I’m excited to see your vlog!

    Hi! I’ve been here a WHILE and you’re just the best. I turned 31 recently and I feel like I’ve finally hit my stride. I went to law school and became super passionate about making legal education accessible but realized like a year into school that actual practice isn’t for me. But now I’m part of the administration at my law school and I genuinely love it. I’ve never loved a job so it feels very good. Anyway, everything you’re grappling with resonates with me (I did grad work abroad before my JD) and you’re going to figure it out. You have great instincts. Trust ‘em. ❤

    When I was lost and facing too many options, Barbara Sher's books were immensely helpful in sorting out what was really important to me in life. The books are short, easy reads and prompt you to fit the advice into your own life without telling you what to do. She's also a proponent of the importance of community and support. Hope you're able to get past this crossroads! I've been watching your videos for years and have loved the nomad travel series :)

I also deal with chronic pain in the way of arthritis, spinal stenosis and I've had a cervical fusion. I have a hard time slowing down when it comes to work (I'm in retail) and I just really appreciate that you are so open and honest about the struggle that chronic pain creates. It's not just the physical. It's not easy to admit you can't do the things you want. I admire your vulnerability and openness. RUclips needs more like you 💗

You're one of the VERY few people that I trust and see as really genuine on RUclips. Just a gut feeling I have. I love that you are not afraid to travel and that you adore your family. I think it would probably be easy to be away from family if you didn't like them, but your family is amazing and so that means that you genuinely feel confident and inspired to do your own thing. I also greatly appreciate how respectful you are of other cultures and I can't wait to see where you travel next.

Once you turn 30, all that you are saying (relationships, stability, etc) becomes a priority naturally. Although you are truly enjoying what you are doing, as you should, it might be the beginning of the end for this phase. Believe me, the voice of experience talking:). I will be 52 in January. And, yes, having a husband that shares all of these passions is a must:))

When I was young, early 20’s, I went to Europe for 3 mths and later on had a job that I was able to travel more extensively. Now I’m 58 and living with chronic pain, so I admire your drive and ambition to see the world. Travel is the best education. If there was a vote, I’d say move to Europe, Barcelona or somewhere else you like, park in NYC till you have a nomad visa - definitely live abroad if you can.

    I couldn’t relate with you more when you talked about the endless directions we can go for in our life and still be happy with all of them…I’m Portuguese and I live in London for a while now but I lived in São Paulo before for almost 3 years (it started at 6 months lol) I now have 3 countries to call home and unfortunately I’m not omnipresent yet 😂 sometimes I feel like I should go back to Portugal because I’m missing so much from my family and friends life and tbh being an emigrant sucks sometimes. I also visit Brazil quite regularly and cry every time because I don’t want to leave and I miss my life there. Here in London I have a great group of friends and no one is really from here so we are all in the same boat. Also this city is truly one of my favourite places (minus the weather). The bottom line is that I can name advantages and disadvantages from all these places and whenever I feel overwhelmed by all of this I just remember myself: Sofia, what a nice problem to have! This means we can easily adapt and be happy in many circumstances and we are brave enough to get out of our comfort zone when most people can’t (also recognising the privilege on this). I truly believe that the experience of living abroad is not only good for me professionally but MOSTLY on the personal level. There’s a lot of lows but I will do it until it makes sense to me, regardless my age (I’m 30 too). Creating our community is indeed THE important thing to do even if we know we are not staying forever in a certain place. Saying goodbye is really hard, don’t get me wrong, and also starting somewhere else from scratch is even more but the feeling of belonging to multiple places truly fulfils me in the end ❤️ since we can’t have it all at the same time, why not spread it along our life since we only have this one. Apologies for the huge text but I love this content!!!

    I'm 26 from Denver but for the past month I have been solo traveling in the Czech Republic (you inspired me!) I feel very much in the same boat of wanting to "start" the next phase of my life now that I'm in my mid twenties. Thanks for being my inspiration and role model for many years! And visit Prague if you get the chance :)

    I’m 56, married with three daughters (23,19and 17). Live north of St. Paul, Minnesota. I started following you a few years ago and was just drawn into your story and have hung on since. Love the traveling and daily living stuff. I traveled to Australia and New Zealand after college and totally admire what you’re able to do being the nomad. You’ll figure out your way, don’t worry we’re all here for you!
