    Thank you for watching this rather serious video. It is my most personal, vulnerable & honest video to date. It took me a couple of years to get the courage to share and to not feel embarrassed . Hopefully someone else feels less lonely about not being perfect or having it all together.
    📣Please keep in mind that most of the clips in this video were filmed over 7 years ago! I am clearly in a better headspace and better financial situation. Thank you for all the messages of support and encouragement- I am currently very much ok😁

      Seek the Lord Jesus Christ while he may be found everyone. Be Holy as God is Holy everyone.Sin shortens life, because of our sins we are separated from God. Everyone have an expiration date and this world have an expiration date.There is nothing in this world worth going to hellfire for, depart from worldliness everyone. It's NOT about religion/denomination, it's about a relationship with Jesus Christ by praying everyday, reading the Bible everyday, believe the gospel, While you are still alive repent of all of your sins and be born again. Rapture is imminent, do not be left behind. Jesus Christ is coming back everyone, get yourselves ready. This WORLD is TEMPORARY and HEAVEN is PERMANENT, Choose wisely everyone.

      Habiba, oh how I loved this video! Being raw and vulnerable to share this with us makes me very thankful. I hope you realize how many you have helped. We all become stuck, or at a crossroads, or are second-guessing our decisions. I think that the events in our lives are not by chance. We go through the things we go through to give us life lessons and to impart wisdom, if we choose to see it. I like the cussing Habiba too! Keep doing what you’re doing. You were meant to be right here right now. I’m glad you’re here, love your content!

    Thank you for doing this video and sharing your story. I really needed to see hear this. I just went thru my 2nd divorce, my father just diagnosed with colon cancer and my mother had to have a pacemaker and back surgery, plus career issues because of just the economy etc.... its very much on my mind thinking im 55 starting over again and possibly leaving a career that ive done for past 30yrs. Its all i know. To pursue a less stressful and physical career because my body has taken a toll. Its very scarry to be the only bread winner and completely start over. Not wanting to be old and broke. And alone. This has made me listen and like your giving me permission to make the changes.

      Girl I hear you! A career in Social work is only for people who truly care for others. It is not about the money. I retired early after 24 years doing SW in NC in the County I live in. I worked for the elderly caregivers raising their grandchildren and provided all 3 programs to them we administered. When the Obamas health care was implemented my job turned into something I could no longer recognize. I’m not saying his health care plan wasn’t good for some people whatsoever. It turned my job into production work making sure all I did was behind a keyboard administrating 3 government assistance programs. It just ruined the lives of our elderly caregivers that I served. I could no longer be a social worker therefore my home visits, helping them with groceries, took my support group I had developed away. They loved meeting all together to vent and telling the reasons why they are now raising grandchildren and how the parents didn’t care about the kids nor them. We’d all eat together that the County provided. It meant so much to them they continued on meeting at our local Pizza Inn monthly because they had all developed friendships. I’m sorry for rattling on I’m just still heartbroken and passionate over what my families accomplished and then lost. I still miss them a lot.

    Wow where do I begin! I’ve watched only 2 Temu videos of yours and this was my third. We were County neighbors once. I live in Rockingham and if you lived in Laurinburg you know Rockingham. If you were like us when you stayed close by “Moore County” is where we’d shop and eat. I’ve lived here all my life. I worked for local government at DSS and due to my health retired early. You are so inspiring and I feel like I know you after just watching 3 videos. I worked with a lady that has your spirit of life like you and she passed a few months back so maybe that’s where I’m feeling this attachment. Are you still in Chapel Hill or have you guys moved again? God Bless You my beautiful friend.

I have been told several times this year by absolute strangers that I should pursue comedy 😮 Anyway I am very glad to hear you’re in a good place and I look forward to watching more of your content 😊

    I'm just seeing your videos; thanks to a friend.
    You can't imagine how your sharing has helped me.
    I just took on a tremendous task. I'm an older bkack woman, who had lots of money sitting in a financial corporation. I used the money and set out on a big dream. I purchased 2 houses for my grandsons. One was rented immediately. The other, scheduled to be a short term rental, is taking forever!
    I was monetarily taxed beyond my wildest dreams. But, I'm dealing with it.
    I understand the feeling of possible failure. Also, the investment of loads of money.
    I have little support but I still move forward.
    Thank you, again. Ive been holding in my trepidation until listening to your experience.

    Thanks for sharing your vulnerabilities and the advice.
    I think it's called midlife crisis for a reason.
    You suddenly reach a milestone, perhaps a birthday, or see a classmate, a relative doing well and suddenly question everything.
    As a fellow Doc who left practice for a while, I understand you perfectly.
    But here is one thing I learnt from the richest man on earth then (Solomon).
    He had riches, many wives and concubines and he said everything he wanted he got, but in the end, proclaimed all is vanity and vexation of the spirit, we brought nothing to this world and it is sure we're taking nothing out.
    In summary,
    Fear God, Count your blessings and appreciate God for what you already have, ask God for directions, live healthy, impact lives as you're doing because at the end when we leave this world, we will not be remembered for what we did for our own self but what we did for humanity and what greater joy is there, to live a well fulfilled life on earth like Abraham and still be a force to reckon with in Heaven.

    I know I’m a bit late in replying BUT I had to say a few things. I LOVE GUINEA PIGS which was what caught my attention in this video initially. I’ve always adopted them from our local SPCA where I live in Canada. ❤
    I’m a Palliative Care Nurse in a nursing home & that’s what drew my initial interest to your channel. I’m off on sick leave & I’m recovering from my third open heart surgery since January 9th of this year. I actually LOVE your family style channel which brings me to my final reason that made me love your channel & that is……..
    …….. I have two sons in their early twenties my youngest will be 22 in November & my oldest will be 24 next February of 2025 ) who both won full scholarships & BOTH are in the States instead of where we live in Canada because of the programs being so much better. My youngest is in New York but it’s my oldest son being close to you guys which really makes me happy. He’s going to university in Florence, South Carolina on a baseball scholarship! 🥰
    Anyhow, I’m glad I found your channel because I’ve been sick in bed lately but I feel like I’m watching a friend vlogging just because y’all are so laid back & down to earth!!!! Keep up the great work you do on your channel.
    P.s. I apologize for the long comment but I felt so proud watching your channel & knowing my son lives close to some amazing people! 🙂

    So heart warming. For somebody like me who only does what I know to do, just taking this step is a huge success. Every step we take outside our comfort zone gives us gems to add to our repertoire and self development. I am a Nurse Practitioner and we learn to compartmentalize our feelings on the job. Medicine and acting are like night and day and just doing what you did is a very bold step. My dear, you have nothing to be ashamed of, a big congratulations to you. Love you and your family as always.

Life is so precious and though we may stay in a place that we are familiar with, it causes us to be stagnant, depressed and unhappy! You inspired me to release situations and relationships that we not conducive to my growth! You are real, authentic and blessed!!

I've gone from being a high paid tech worker to being a creative entrepreneur with zero income. It's been hard, but even though my bank account is much poorer, my spirit feels richer than it has in 20 years. I know I made the right decision and this video is confirmation that following your passion is a valid route to self discovery and fulfillment. I've watched a couple of your other videos but this is the one that convinced me to subscribe! Best wishes

Your channel is uniquely you; filled with star quality content, and award wining presentations. Your professional and personal accomplishments are stellar; your children are amazing, and your Kenton continues to love and support you. Change is often an enigma; however, you were brave enough to make that shift. The outcome may seem different, or maybe surreal, but all our experiences are in preparation for our next role. Continue to showcase your talents and almost 100,000 subscribers will continue to support and applaud you❤
