Hannah, I am probably one of your most unlikely followers. I am not only old enough to be your mother, I'm old enough to be your grandmother. But you are an influencer to me. What you do for a living was not imaginable when I was your age. There was no internet, no personal computers, no cell phones. We had libraries, typewriters and landlines. But we had the same issues as you do now. Anyone with an iota of humility will always have imposter syndrome. And who isn't tempted to waste the day away on social media or binging on some stupid show? You're doing just fine and you're adorable. Please keep making your content for your peers and us old farts too.
Another "old fart" follower here (54) and I love this comment! Even though I'm pretty advanced in my career I still suffer from imposter syndrome. Agree that it's totally normal. 👍
Finally someone talking about this because I also graduated a year ago and Omg the struggle is REAL! Also congrats to all the grads you’ve completed such an incredible task no matter the age 🥳💜💜
I graduated from high school in 2018. My sophomore year in high school I made a decision that would completely change my life. I decided to go to a vocational school that my school had the option to go to. I went for welding. Turns out I have a passion for welding. There's just something about laying down a good weld just brings me so much joy. I'm good at my job and what I do. I love my job and my company and my supervisor. I'm so happy that things are finally turning around for me. I've been through a lot in my life. A lot of job hopping bc of a choice that I made a few years ago. If your reading this comment. If you happen to be in a relationship with someone who's manipulative, abusive in any way, forceful with everything, or just in anyway shape or form if your gut is telling you to leave. Take my advice and leave. If they are trying to make you quit your job that you love. Leave. Trust me if I could go back in time, I would've listened to my gut. Life will through you many challenges but you have to know and that you can get through it and you will. I guarantee that you will mke it through. If you ever feel lonely or you feel afraid, look up bible verses or positive quotes. You will make it. You are strong enough, you are beautiful/handsome. You are enough, you are loved.
I graduated this past Saturday, and I have so many people asking me what I am doing and the next step. I tell them I'm young, I still have time to figure it out but whatever I decide to do is because I love and want to do it. Def needed to hear this!!
have you considered doing a podcast bc I feel like you could make such an interesting one on living in nyc, post grad, your career, your life routines, etc! (I would definitely listen and hope you make one!!!)
I also graduated last year with literally no plan in mind. I decided to move back to my motherland that I haven't lived in for an extended amount of time since the age of 11. Those were the best months of my life to date. When I went back, I decided to apply for a masters degree next school year. And while waiting for my admission to come through. I randomly thought well why not just work while I wait. So now I'm working at one of the best hospitals in the Netherlands waiting to be admitted at one of the best universities in the Netherlands while all of this was not planned at all last year. Life is better when you don't plan everything out. You can have dreams, just don't put a deadline one them
I'm moving across the country for the first time ever with my first big girl job (& still in school for my masters online lol) but its so encouraging to hear that you're so happy with your decision to move to NYC. Im very excited and know I'm gonna learn and grow so much so thanks for sharing your experience :)))
YOU GOT THIS! It's definitely scary and stressful making a big move like that, but you're right - you will learn and grow so much! Looking at things as learning experiences is really key - even if things don't go as planned, at least you're learning!
I'm still in university, but sometimes thinking about post-grad life gives me so much anxiety, and listening to you talking about this topics made me feel so much better
A year ago I commented one of your videos of how scared of not finding a job I was(or something like that) you replied and told me that a lot of people felt like it and that I would figure it out, today, one year later I have a job that has to do with the career I studied and I’m getting not so bad of a salary, I’m not where I wanna be yet but I’m working on itily🫶🏼 (I graduated May 2021 too) Thought I’d share lok
i relate to this so much. i just graduated from college a few weeks ago and i feel like i already have the post grad blues. i’ve been a student for literally my entire life and now all i can think is “wtf am i supposed to do now???” coming to terms with this new identity is hard!
From a 62 yr old Mom and Grandma- this is great advice/ conversation. Thank you. I hope viewers your around your age listen to it. Sometimes they put too much pressure on themselves.
This marks the 5th month since I dropped out of college and I have been meaning to apply to another college but I haven’t been able to find motivation to pen down my thoughts and reasons why I wish to pick the major I’ve been meaning to change to. I don’t know what’s with this video but it has some sort of MAGIC and before I even finished the video, I started rapidly typing these thoughts and reasons down. This is really gonna help with my entry and application for the next phase of my education life, despite already turned 22. Thank you Hannah, for being magical yet so realistic 🤎💙
I found your channel during my last year of college (2019-2020) and that song you play at the end of your videos always gets me… I feel like I’ve grown so much and I see your growth as well! So proud of us! The sound is like a core memory for me now. Thank you for your videos!
Hannah this is such a special video for people your age. You're so insightful and kind and inspiring tbh! Even for someone like me who didn't just graduate. This is so important for young people to know. I wish I had a video like this when I had first graduated college in 2011. You really are a real one.
I struggled to find my right path after high school, but now that I finally study what I like and at a school that is right for me, I can't wait to get out and actually work somewhere where I can use the skills I'm learning here. So I agree with Hannah. Post grad life will be awesome!
I'm graduating high school this year and although it's completely different from what you're going through I found myself relating to many aspects of this video. If you ever decide to do a podcast in life I would listen to that religiously, you don't even know how much this video helped to ease my anxiety for University haha
A lesson I learned the hard way re: creating a schedule. I made sure I made appointments/deadlines that I can't break. If I don't have an outside force making me accountable, I would never self-motivate. For me it's just a personality trait - I just needed to find a way to manage it that works for me.
Wish I saw this after I graduated! I graduated college in 2017 and got done with my grad program in 2020 and it still feels weird not being in school anymore! So glad you posted this for those who are graduating this year! ✨
Hannah you did it again. The beginning of your video was just connecting with me on such a personal level. It’s so refreshing to know that I’m not the only one who felt these things. So thank you! You’re awesome!
Wow, I never thought about how every decision we make shifts our opportunities, and not to mention, our view points of our own lives. Life is like a guided domino effect controlled by us!
I graduated a week ago from university and I TOTALLY started comparing myself with others who began other chapters and I feel like I have nothing yet. THANK YOU! Your words are so wise and exactly what I needed. 💗
I just loved your approach to this topic because it talked directly with my life after gratuation six months ago!! I feel like it was the little push that needed to stop comparing myself (or at least try harder to), because you made really great points here. Thank you for being so honest! Love from Brazil 🇧🇷
I haven't even graduated yet, but I was scared about graduating from university and actually having to operate as a grown-up. I really don't like the current positions many fresh graduates have been forced into. Thank you for the graduating Ted Talk.
OMG Hannah, this really helps me! I am in my 1st year of 2 yr comm college, and I have to say, that this will really come to handy when I finish. I get a really big relief knowing that life is just going without a plan and that I shouldn't be over-pressuring myself. Love you Hannah
I’ve been watching you since the beginning of 2020 and I’ve always resonated with you on your school journey because we are the same age and at the same level in school and I also graduated last year on May 15th, but at the beginning of last year I was also stressed about post grad life but then I found out I was pregnant and it seemed like that was where life was taking me so I let it and now I have a beautiful 8 month old baby boy and I couldn’t be happier. Moral of the story, I think life is going to choose for you no matter how much you plan so don’t even stress about it that much! Also love you and your channel, you’re such an inspiration Hannah💜
SO MANY GEMS IN THIS VIDEO! I'm 36 and I 100% agree with everything you said. I love how much wisdom you are sharing with your channel. Great video, Hannah!
WOW. Not even through and I can honestly say, you nailed it. About passing grades vs learning. I’m 30 yrs older than you and to this day, I regret nothing about leaving college to pursue my sport, which lead to my job and career. I was in an arts program and just found it a waste of money. Teaching me about ‘creative writing’ when I wanted to be IN the world living life to be able to write about that vs being taught to write. I was about 20 or 21, and it was some of the hardest work I’ve ever done, but the most rewarding and it expanded from there. Then, I went about becoming a certified coach, which was a process. This is why I don’t tell people to leave school, but to know that, like you, if it’s not working, you have to do what you feel is right for your situation and circumstances.
Thank you for this video Hannah. I just graduated from college 2 weeks ago and, still to this day, idk what I wanna do with my degree. I have an idea, but not a pinpoint job title. But your wisdom and encouragement help me and made me realize that I'm not the only one. I'm a homebody as well and the thought of leaving home one day is uncomfortable for me, even though I love being alone. I'm glad you were in the same boat that I am in today❤
I've been here since your college vlogs from 3 years ago!! you've come so far hannah! im sooo proud. I used to watch you in my first year of college and watched you every time since- now i'm one year away from MY own graduation. Would definitely go back and watch this video again when i'm on my own post-grad journey. It was nice spending my early-adult life with you, you indeed are the sister we never hand.
I'm a real one!😁 Thank you so much for this video. As a newly graduate 2022, I mirror most of your thoughts and emtions that you shared. I'm happy that you said so much of what I am thinking. Hopely I'll be able to reflect a year from now, just as you are and see my personal growth and progress🙏💙💫
The amount of anxiety I felt just listening to you talk about this stuff is unreal, and I don’t even graduate college til December. Change is very hard for me as well but if you can do, then maybe I can do it too!
Hannah, I wanna say that all your college videos helped me get through year12 (SNR year of high school) and also made me consider learning a marketing major at TAFE (sorta like high school)
One year post grad and I struggle with the same thing of creating structure! I work remote 9-5 as a designer so being a creative person structure doesn’t come super natural to me. I see these like morning routines on insta like the really aesthetic ones and I’m like idk man I need 8-9 hours sleep min. With that I’ve been reading Atomic Habits by James Clear! So good and was easy for me to absorb. I’ve also been highlighting while I read bc it seems to help me put the lessons and tips into practice! I hope this helps 💜
Just graduated about a week ago!! 🙌🏼😁 Congrats to all the grads out there!!!! Hannah, I’m so glad I came upon this video because it’s so true. Although I just graduated, but I literally felt the same just before graduating! Just knowing there will be no more exams or group projects was so relieving! Love you, Hannah!!!!
You're a LIFESAVER Hannah!! You always know the right things to say at the right time, I really needed to hear this message being almost a year post grad. Thank you!!❤️❤️
I really enjoyed this video and made me feel more at peace with life. life is tricky and everyone puts such high expectations on themselves, sometimes we forget to just live. thanks for being open and honest, I know its not the easiest
This video was literally therapy for me. I just graduated last week so I have some ideas of what I want to do, but I don't have a true plan or timeline for how I can accomplish it but this helped me take a moment and slow down since I don't NEED to have a plan or know EXACTLY how everything will fall into place. Thank you for sharing this!
I wanted to thank you Hannah, last year I was a nursing student, then I saw your videos and I learned about "Marketing," I had never heard about Marketing as a major - in general I didn't know much about the business field options, mostly because I was in Healthcare. However, I saw your videos, and it really made me interested in Marketing (also other factors), so I switched my major. I will not lie, ot has been quite stressful, because "bussiness" is a complete new world, and I didn't had much knowledge about it. Recently I have felt like I should have done all these things already, and that I need to do this amount of things more, and then one advisor telling me to consider Accounting or HR... I don't know, it has been overwhelming and quite sad. You were so right about the "unsolicited advice." I don't have a channel like you, or social media presence as a creator, we come from different backgrounds and I probably don't have as much experience or knowledge as my advisors might want me to have, but I have certain goals, they might not be set on stone or have the most clear step by step layout, but I am simply trying my best ! Thank you for this video, for the advice of not having everything figure out, and that that is okay - for the advice of not comparing yourself to others, and that everyone is just trying their best too. This will definitely be my comfort video ♡
I will be graduating from high school soon. This video is the literally the MOST useful video I’ve ever seen about college and life in general. Thank you so much for the video!!
I love your way of thinking!! It is really interesting hearing your perpectives. And how you are navegating more trough a gray area, saying that everyones path life is different. And not being like it is this or it is that. Also the chapters part. It is so right, everyone is through a different step of their lives, even if two people are the exact same age. You never can really know all of the process behind someone elses achievement.
I really love these motivational videos, I mean the post-grad, because gives me inspiration of doing my thesis and keeps me motivated of the "adult life" after college.
Hannah you are so freakin beautiful, I literally can’t stop staring at your eye color and your makeup. I sound like a creepy old man but it’s true😂😂 also I love your whole speech about “not having your life planned out”. I don’t have a plan whatsoever for my life and it’s very scary/stressful sometimes, but hearing someone else’s thoughts on that is so helpful💕
Hey Hannah! I really want to say thank you about talking how it is important to get out of your comfort zone . I gave up on my plans after 24th February as my country in difficult economy situation due to sanctions and etc . That made me to stick to my work that I hate and refuse even thinking about moving . But what if I’ll success no matter what? It’s super scary to try something new and get out of my comfort zone ,it makes me cry lol . But I can’t stay forever in this comfy cage . Thank you for reminding me about be ,you’re amazing !
I graduated college in 2011 with a degree in Anthropology, but ended up getting a job at a corporate company right after graduation. Did I end up in my dream job? No. Did I end up learning more about myself and what I like and don’t like while at this company? Yes. And I’m still learning. Thru my various positions with this company I learned that I love training people and creating training material for various learning types. So I found my way into a position here with the company that does exactly that and I’m happy. Was it part of the plan? No. I really enjoyed this video. You have a lot of really good things to say and I think it’s important for people to hear the things you talked about. Even I needed to hear it and I’ve been “out in the real world” for 10+ yrs. ❤️
Wow. Not me breaking down into tears about external pressures about the way my life should be going. And making me feel unsure if I’m making the ‘right’ move. It’s my life and my choice the way it should go. People can be well meaning with saying something but all it does is make you doubt. “Nobody else is living your life! Nobody else is responsible for your life or your quality of life or anything else but you! You’re just trying to do the best thing that you can do for yourself!” Thank you so much Hannah for this video!!! 🤍🤍🤍 I get what you mean about potentially jinxing things before they’ve happened. It’s great to have the reminder not to compare yourself because everyone is in different chapters. Sometimes tricky to convince yourself but it’s a great reminder.
Hi Hannah I just graduated 2 weekends ago and it is terrifying! Thank you for giving me something to relate to queen. I’m in this weird limbo in between getting accepted at grad school / finding another source of income. You are literally one of my role models Hannah thank you so much for inspiring me with your videos!!
I’ve officially followed you for approximately a full year💕 so happy for you and I’ve absolutely loved watching this transition for you, you’re absolutely glowing!!
Omg I love this video! Such a honest and real talk about starting your own life and yes, pushing past those uncomfortable 🥴 things! I love you and your moms saying about growing by pushing past your comfort zone
I completely agree with point Number 1!!!!!! Right now I am planning on returning to school to take my Prerequisite classes in science (3 classes I need) for my MS in Genetics Counseling because August 2021 I spoke with a doctor to Medical Students and I LOVED it...and in October I spoke with her through Genetics interest...and she suggested Genetics Counseling...and I did research and LOVED it!!!!!! So much so that I have an Interview with the GC in her office on June 15th (which I might also see if I can shadow her). Genetics Counseling is something I am SUPER passionate about and I LOVE the relationship with my doctor!!!!!!!!!
So glad I clicked on this video today. I needed to hear this! I've been in such a rut with work and feeling like a failure and honestly I just needed to hear that it's enough. Thank you!
One thing I’ve had to do lately with getting things done/motivation is creating deadlines for myself and convincing my brain that that action or project or whatever is DUE that day and I still struggle with it but it’s definitely helped some. I usually make reminders on my phone or put it in my agenda btw
i did a year and a half of college and kinda hated it. i did one semester from home and liked it a lot better but still didn’t love it cause it was all the basic required stupid classes that have nothing to do with my major (which was business at first then “undecided”) i’m taking a break from school rn to figure out what i wanna do and just work. i thought i knew what i wanted to do, interior design, i love building things and putting things together and also designing with interior spaces and i love tiles and things like that 😂 i’m looking for an online course i can take to get my degree in that without having to take all those random classes and it’s all so complicated for no reason but i’m kinda thinking i don’t really wanna do this yet, i’m really enjoying not being in school and just working, my mom on the other hand wants me to start right away and not waste time cause it’s gonna take about 4 years to actually get certified as an interior designer. (yet she’s only just now starting up her newborn photography business again) it’s a lot to think about and this video helped me realize a lot of things. ♥️
I totally agree with what you say! Actually, in July 2022 I'm finishing my career in college and I'm very excited to live the process of post grad. I really enjoy your videos!! ☺
Loved this video Hannah! Have you considered starting a podcast? I would love to hear more of your thoughts on things in a longer-form format like that!
You’re such a inspiration, im coming from sweden and i live alone in a apartment with my cat. I love your chilling videos, when you’re alone. Because I don’t feel alone anymore. So thank you Hannah!
This has really helped since I've graduated from high school. I've started my own business and I decided to take a gap year and people have been telling me it's a bad idea. So it just worries me but at the same time, ik what I doing and have a general plan. Ig what I'm saying is that your video(s) really help and confirm my thoughts and help my worries❤
This video is nothing but FACTS. Post grad is such a relief and it’s true school teaches you to teach yourself. Its more about passing classes than even learning anything useful.
I'm going to graduate next year and I feel anxious. I found this video really helpful. Thanks Hannah for giving us the advice. I have followed your channel for more than two years. It is amazing to see you grow and come to where you are today. 🎉
*Hannah on a blind date with somebody* Date: “What’s on your mind?” *Hannah rambling through the entirety of the decisions philosophy in ‘point 1’* Either the date would decide that you are the one and you are getting married, or it would completely freak them out. Either way, I’m here for it. 😅
I just graduated from highschool, and I’m freaking out about my major, cause i want to be a full time content creator, but afraid to fail. Just found your channel and I’m loving it!!! You’re inspiring me sm
I was literally just going back to some older videos on your channel for THIS...I just graduated and it's honestly been roughhhh. Thank you for making this video! Love you! :) ♥
Love the advice in this video and was so so needed!! I still have a little bit of time before graduating college but I'm terrified about anything past that (I feel the whole 'school gives me structure' so much) and this made me feel a little better about it, thank youu
Thank you for this video and thank you for constantly keeping it real you seem so relatable and like a real person with real life “problems” forever a real one 😊
This video came just in time! Thank you, I am so grateful we have your channel. It always feels like I am talking with a friend. Keep up with your journey❤️ Love you
Thank you! Thank you for sharing your post-graduation experience and pros and cons. I recently graduated from college with a Bachelor's degree in Agriculture and right now I am looking for any type of Agriculture job. Thank you!

Congratulations ✨✨
yey!! happy for you!
@@melisahatipoglu Aww thank you!!
@@brits5440 Thank you so much!!
YAYYYY CONGRATS!! YOU DID IT
I just graduated two weekends ago (mine was May 14) and the post-grad stress and anxiety is real. I can totally relate to the feeling.
I’m actually going to argue that it’s great to go into life without a plan at all and just let life take you wherever
I meant that it’s probably good to at least know what you want out of life (very surface level) not that you have to actually have a whole ass plan 😂
Ok but imagine if Hannah had a podcast 🥺 That would be literally a dream come true
I'm impressed with you. I'm a 73 year old retired teacher. I think you have your act together. Good job!
Thank you so much :) this means a lot

I AM SO FREAKING PROUD OF YOU. You’re doing amazing!!! 😭❤️
i relate to this so much. i just graduated from college a few weeks ago and i feel like i already have the post grad blues. i’ve been a student for literally my entire life and now all i can think is “wtf am i supposed to do now???” coming to terms with this new identity is hard!
From a 62 yr old Mom and Grandma- this is great advice/ conversation. Thank you. I hope viewers your around your age listen to it. Sometimes they put too much pressure on themselves.
okay as a high schooler who's stressed tf out about what i want to do when i go to college- this helped me so much! thanks for this

To be honest I was already worried that Hannah didn’t posted yesterday.I love her can’t live without her and her awesome videos 💜
I found your channel during my last year of college (2019-2020) and that song you play at the end of your videos always gets me… I feel like I’ve grown so much and I see your growth as well! So proud of us! The sound is like a core memory for me now. Thank you for your videos!

I struggled to find my right path after high school, but now that I finally study what I like and at a school that is right for me, I can't wait to get out and actually work somewhere where I can use the skills I'm learning here.
So I agree with Hannah. Post grad life will be awesome!
Whas ur program?

Wow, I never thought about how every decision we make shifts our opportunities, and not to mention, our view points of our own lives.
Life is like a guided domino effect controlled by us!
I graduated a week ago from university and I TOTALLY started comparing myself with others who began other chapters and I feel like I have nothing yet. THANK YOU! Your words are so wise and exactly what I needed. 💗
I just loved your approach to this topic because it talked directly with my life after gratuation six months ago!! I feel like it was the little push that needed to stop comparing myself (or at least try harder to), because you made really great points here. Thank you for being so honest! Love from Brazil 🇧🇷
I haven't even graduated yet, but I was scared about graduating from university and actually having to operate as a grown-up. I really don't like the current positions many fresh graduates have been forced into. Thank you for the graduating Ted Talk.
OMG Hannah, this really helps me! I am in my 1st year of 2 yr comm college, and I have to say, that this will really come to handy when I finish. I get a really big relief knowing that life is just going without a plan and that I shouldn't be over-pressuring myself. Love you Hannah
I’ve been watching you since the beginning of 2020 and I’ve always resonated with you on your school journey because we are the same age and at the same level in school and I also graduated last year on May 15th, but at the beginning of last year I was also stressed about post grad life but then I found out I was pregnant and it seemed like that was where life was taking me so I let it and now I have a beautiful 8 month old baby boy and I couldn’t be happier. Moral of the story, I think life is going to choose for you no matter how much you plan so don’t even stress about it that much! Also love you and your channel, you’re such an inspiration Hannah💜
SO MANY GEMS IN THIS VIDEO! I'm 36 and I 100% agree with everything you said. I love how much wisdom you are sharing with your channel. Great video, Hannah!
Your videos are SO NEEDED. You don't know that, but you help me so much!! Thank you, Hannah!
WOW. Not even through and I can honestly say, you nailed it. About passing grades vs learning. I’m 30 yrs older than you and to this day, I regret nothing about leaving college to pursue my sport, which lead to my job and career. I was in an arts program and just found it a waste of money. Teaching me about ‘creative writing’ when I wanted to be IN the world living life to be able to write about that vs being taught to write. I was about 20 or 21, and it was some of the hardest work I’ve ever done, but the most rewarding and it expanded from there. Then, I went about becoming a certified coach, which was a process. This is why I don’t tell people to leave school, but to know that, like you, if it’s not working, you have to do what you feel is right for your situation and circumstances.
Thank you for this video Hannah. I just graduated from college 2 weeks ago and, still to this day, idk what I wanna do with my degree. I have an idea, but not a pinpoint job title. But your wisdom and encouragement help me and made me realize that I'm not the only one. I'm a homebody as well and the thought of leaving home one day is uncomfortable for me, even though I love being alone. I'm glad you were in the same boat that I am in today❤
I've been here since your college vlogs from 3 years ago!! you've come so far hannah! im sooo proud. I used to watch you in my first year of college and watched you every time since- now i'm one year away from MY own graduation. Would definitely go back and watch this video again when i'm on my own post-grad journey. It was nice spending my early-adult life with you, you indeed are the sister we never hand.
I'm a real one!😁
Thank you so much for this video. As a newly graduate 2022, I mirror most of your thoughts and emtions that you shared. I'm happy that you said so much of what I am thinking. Hopely I'll be able to reflect a year from now, just as you are and see my personal growth and progress🙏💙💫
you should have a podcast!! you have a really calming voice
My boyfriend works for a small marketing agency as a marketing strategist, how funny that that’s something you’re working towards 😊
i graduated last year as well and watching you going through the same thing reeeally helped
The amount of anxiety I felt just listening to you talk about this stuff is unreal, and I don’t even graduate college til December. Change is very hard for me as well but if you can do, then maybe I can do it too!
how are you handling post grad life? congrats on graduating btw :)
Hannah, I wanna say that all your college videos helped me get through year12 (SNR year of high school) and also made me consider learning a marketing major at TAFE (sorta like high school)
One year post grad and I struggle with the same thing of creating structure! I work remote 9-5 as a designer so being a creative person structure doesn’t come super natural to me. I see these like morning routines on insta like the really aesthetic ones and I’m like idk man I need 8-9 hours sleep min.
With that I’ve been reading Atomic Habits by James Clear! So good and was easy for me to absorb. I’ve also been highlighting while I read bc it seems to help me put the lessons and tips into practice! I hope this helps 💜
Your growth is amazing! I’ve been watching for a year!! Amazing amazing! You can’t even tell you have flourished so much!!
Just graduated about a week ago!! 🙌🏼😁
Congrats to all the grads out there!!!!
Hannah, I’m so glad I came upon this video because it’s so true. Although I just graduated, but I literally felt the same just before graduating! Just knowing there will be no more exams or group projects was so relieving!
Love you, Hannah!!!!
You're a LIFESAVER Hannah!! You always know the right things to say at the right time, I really needed to hear this message being almost a year post grad. Thank you!!❤️❤️
The best time of my life came 3 years after graduating. That's when I really started doing what makes me feel happy and fulfilled. Just keep going!
I really enjoyed this video and made me feel more at peace with life. life is tricky and everyone puts such high expectations on themselves, sometimes we forget to just live. thanks for being open and honest, I know its not the easiest
I love your videos!! It's amazing to see your growth, from your college vlogs to now!!🦋🦋
This video was literally therapy for me. I just graduated last week so I have some ideas of what I want to do, but I don't have a true plan or timeline for how I can accomplish it but this helped me take a moment and slow down since I don't NEED to have a plan or know EXACTLY how everything will fall into place. Thank you for sharing this!
I graduated almost four months ago and came back to this video because I feel so lost. Love you Hannah, thank you for this reminder
I wanted to thank you Hannah, last year I was a nursing student, then I saw your videos and I learned about "Marketing," I had never heard about Marketing as a major - in general I didn't know much about the business field options, mostly because I was in Healthcare. However, I saw your videos, and it really made me interested in Marketing (also other factors), so I switched my major. I will not lie, ot has been quite stressful, because "bussiness" is a complete new world, and I didn't had much knowledge about it. Recently I have felt like I should have done all these things already, and that I need to do this amount of things more, and then one advisor telling me to consider Accounting or HR... I don't know, it has been overwhelming and quite sad. You were so right about the "unsolicited advice." I don't have a channel like you, or social media presence as a creator, we come from different backgrounds and I probably don't have as much experience or knowledge as my advisors might want me to have, but I have certain goals, they might not be set on stone or have the most clear step by step layout, but I am simply trying my best ! Thank you for this video, for the advice of not having everything figure out, and that that is okay - for the advice of not comparing yourself to others, and that everyone is just trying their best too. This will definitely be my comfort video ♡
I will be graduating from high school soon. This video is the literally the MOST useful video I’ve ever seen about college and life in general. Thank you so much for the video!!
I concur
I love your way of thinking!! It is really interesting hearing your perpectives. And how you are navegating more trough a gray area, saying that everyones path life is different. And not being like it is this or it is that. Also the chapters part. It is so right, everyone is through a different step of their lives, even if two people are the exact same age. You never can really know all of the process behind someone elses achievement.
Thank you for making a video about this! I didn’t realize how much I would relate to what you’re saying! (Graduated at the end of 2020)
hannah!!!! I love how you've been editing lately, it feels so much more natural with less abrupt cuts
You're such an inspiration Hannah, your videos just keep getting better and better and your personality is just chef's kiss
I really love these motivational videos, I mean the post-grad, because gives me inspiration of doing my thesis and keeps me motivated of the "adult life" after college.
Thank you for touching on this topic, just graduated high school so I’m looking at things from a slight different perspective
Hannah you are so freakin beautiful, I literally can’t stop staring at your eye color and your makeup. I sound like a creepy old man but it’s true😂😂 also I love your whole speech about “not having your life planned out”. I don’t have a plan whatsoever for my life and it’s very scary/stressful sometimes, but hearing someone else’s thoughts on that is so helpful💕
Hey Hannah! I really want to say thank you about talking how it is important to get out of your comfort zone . I gave up on my plans after 24th February as my country in difficult economy situation due to sanctions and etc . That made me to stick to my work that I hate and refuse even thinking about moving . But what if I’ll success no matter what? It’s super scary to try something new and get out of my comfort zone ,it makes me cry lol . But I can’t stay forever in this comfy cage . Thank you for reminding me about be ,you’re amazing !
I graduated college in 2011 with a degree in Anthropology, but ended up getting a job at a corporate company right after graduation. Did I end up in my dream job? No. Did I end up learning more about myself and what I like and don’t like while at this company? Yes. And I’m still learning. Thru my various positions with this company I learned that I love training people and creating training material for various learning types. So I found my way into a position here with the company that does exactly that and I’m happy. Was it part of the plan? No.
I really enjoyed this video. You have a lot of really good things to say and I think it’s important for people to hear the things you talked about. Even I needed to hear it and I’ve been “out in the real world” for 10+ yrs. ❤️
Wow. Not me breaking down into tears about external pressures about the way my life should be going. And making me feel unsure if I’m making the ‘right’ move. It’s my life and my choice the way it should go. People can be well meaning with saying something but all it does is make you doubt. “Nobody else is living your life! Nobody else is responsible for your life or your quality of life or anything else but you! You’re just trying to do the best thing that you can do for yourself!” Thank you so much Hannah for this video!!! 🤍🤍🤍 I get what you mean about potentially jinxing things before they’ve happened. It’s great to have the reminder not to compare yourself because everyone is in different chapters. Sometimes tricky to convince yourself but it’s a great reminder.
Hi Hannah I just graduated 2 weekends ago and it is terrifying! Thank you for giving me something to relate to queen. I’m in this weird limbo in between getting accepted at grad school / finding another source of income. You are literally one of my role models Hannah thank you so much for inspiring me with your videos!!
Hannah, you should definitely think about starting a podcast!
I would loooove to listen to it, and know many others would too 🤍
Much love 💘
I’ve officially followed you for approximately a full year💕 so happy for you and I’ve absolutely loved watching this transition for you, you’re absolutely glowing!!
So relatable. Once you figure out how to stick to your own plan, please let me know. No amount of bullet journaling and planning makes me stick to it.
Omg I love this video! Such a honest and real talk about starting your own life and yes, pushing past those uncomfortable 🥴 things! I love you and your moms saying about growing by pushing past your comfort zone
I completely agree with point Number 1!!!!!! Right now I am planning on returning to school to take my Prerequisite classes in science (3 classes I need) for my MS in Genetics Counseling because August 2021 I spoke with a doctor to Medical Students and I LOVED it...and in October I spoke with her through Genetics interest...and she suggested Genetics Counseling...and I did research and LOVED it!!!!!! So much so that I have an Interview with the GC in her office on June 15th (which I might also see if I can shadow her). Genetics Counseling is something I am SUPER passionate about and I LOVE the relationship with my doctor!!!!!!!!!
Also your necklace is super cute!!!!!
So glad I clicked on this video today. I needed to hear this! I've been in such a rut with work and feeling like a failure and honestly I just needed to hear that it's enough. Thank you!
your thumbnails are always on point!
Thank you 🥺
I just graduated from college and moving to NYC to pursue my dream of being a writer so this video was like highkey comforting to watch
YOU GOT THIS! I believe in you
@@HannahElise maybe I'll run into you!
One thing I’ve had to do lately with getting things done/motivation is creating deadlines for myself and convincing my brain that that action or project or whatever is DUE that day and I still struggle with it but it’s definitely helped some. I usually make reminders on my phone or put it in my agenda btw
i did a year and a half of college and kinda hated it. i did one semester from home and liked it a lot better but still didn’t love it cause it was all the basic required stupid classes that have nothing to do with my major (which was business at first then “undecided”) i’m taking a break from school rn to figure out what i wanna do and just work. i thought i knew what i wanted to do, interior design, i love building things and putting things together and also designing with interior spaces and i love tiles and things like that 😂 i’m looking for an online course i can take to get my degree in that without having to take all those random classes and it’s all so complicated for no reason but i’m kinda thinking i don’t really wanna do this yet, i’m really enjoying not being in school and just working, my mom on the other hand wants me to start right away and not waste time cause it’s gonna take about 4 years to actually get certified as an interior designer. (yet she’s only just now starting up her newborn photography business again) it’s a lot to think about and this video helped me realize a lot of things. ♥️
as a marketing major who just graduated, I really needed this. thank you 💗💗💗💗
What I learned - sometimes the hard way - you make plans and then life gets in the way 😊!
I totally agree with what you say! Actually, in July 2022 I'm finishing my career in college and I'm very excited to live the process of post grad. I really enjoy your videos!! ☺
Your life talk videos is literally my favorite video out of all your content! ❤️❤️
Loved this video Hannah! Have you considered starting a podcast? I would love to hear more of your thoughts on things in a longer-form format like that!
You’re such a inspiration, im coming from sweden and i live alone in a apartment with my cat. I love your chilling videos, when you’re alone. Because I don’t feel alone anymore. So thank you Hannah!
@HannahElise
2:33 The fact that Hannah was jiving while that car was honking made me lose it. 😜😂
This has really helped since I've graduated from high school. I've started my own business and I decided to take a gap year and people have been telling me it's a bad idea. So it just worries me but at the same time, ik what I doing and have a general plan.
Ig what I'm saying is that your video(s) really help and confirm my thoughts and help my worries❤
This video is nothing but FACTS. Post grad is such a relief and it’s true school teaches you to teach yourself. Its more about passing classes than even learning anything useful.
I graduated from college this month and the anxiety is real!! Thank you for making this video!
I'm going to graduate next year and I feel anxious. I found this video really helpful. Thanks Hannah for giving us the advice. I have followed your channel for more than two years. It is amazing to see you grow and come to where you are today. 🎉
Hi Hannah Elise! Thank you for this advice! I'll definitely need it someday when I graduate from community college in 2023!♥️♥️❤💜🎓🎓🎓
*Hannah on a blind date with somebody*
Date: “What’s on your mind?”
*Hannah rambling through the entirety of the decisions philosophy in ‘point 1’*
Either the date would decide that you are the one and you are getting married, or it would completely freak them out. Either way, I’m here for it. 😅
I just graduated from highschool, and I’m freaking out about my major, cause i want to be a full time content creator, but afraid to fail. Just found your channel and I’m loving it!!! You’re inspiring me sm
I was literally just going back to some older videos on your channel for THIS...I just graduated and it's honestly been roughhhh. Thank you for making this video! Love you! :) ♥
also, I'm a real one 🥰
Love the advice in this video and was so so needed!! I still have a little bit of time before graduating college but I'm terrified about anything past that (I feel the whole 'school gives me structure' so much) and this made me feel a little better about it, thank youu
I just graduated college this month and this video was SO helpful!!🥲
Thank you for this video and thank you for constantly keeping it real you seem so relatable and like a real person with real life “problems” forever a real one 😊
This video came just in time!
Thank you, I am so grateful we have your channel. It always feels like I am talking with a friend.
Keep up with your journey❤️
Love you
I just graduated this semester as well and it's been v comforting watching your post grad journey!
Yay! I’m early, this made me happy and so proud of you and all that you have achieved, keep being great hannah 💜
Thank you! Thank you for sharing your post-graduation experience and pros and cons. I recently graduated from college with a Bachelor's degree in Agriculture and right now I am looking for any type of Agriculture job. Thank you!
