I love this video. I appreciate your honesty about stress. Helen I am a 76 year old woman who journals and have used some of your products. Your creativity and art of all types is so inspiring. I understand the anxiety you are speaking of. You will notice in this comment, I am not going to give you any advice about anything. I am just listening and letting you know my heart is with you. You are an amazing young lady.. You are such a blessing to your family and to this world. I look forward to all of your videos and talks.
You are exactly what the internet was supposed to be - honest, humble, generous - and extremely talented. Although I'm truly impressed by your skill & penmanship, I come away from each of your videos a little calmer and more positive. Keep up your passion. It truly shows through.
Your PWM always very soothing Helen. I agree sometimes doing hobby is a form of self care ❤ cant believe it will be 8th anniversary. I remember I found you way back with EC pwm
I really like this format of journaling. You can write ur to-do list and be organised while also having the creative freedom to do/write whatever you feel like for that day. It's like a planner and time capsule style of journaling combined. P.S. your handwriting is sooo pretty
Your vlog style videos are always my favourite. Hope youre able to be kinder to yourself. ❤ We love and appreciate everything you do for us as customers and the community ❤
I remember last year’s Valentine’s Day video 🖤 I love your content, shop, and energy! Thank you for helping me with my mental clarity and getting my life together through your work! Sending love from FL 📍🥰🖤🖤
I just found your channel a month or so after your 8th Anniversary Sale! No wonder when i went to make some purchases nearly everything was sold out!! Happy Anniversary Helen!! You’re an incredible woman and you have really attracted a huge group of people all over the world who are inspired by you and your works! ❤🎉
It’s so relaxing and wonderful to watch you journal, and also talk about stress which so many of us are now living with. I feel like most people have at least a background level of worry in our modern world so it helps to hear someone discuss it. I was considering trying the hobonichi weeks this year, but still have bought it. I loved the cousin for daily journaling, which your spreads inspired ! But the weekly hourly style just felt too narrow. So I was going to try the weeks. I feel I’m too easily influenced by the happy planner releases too though. Who knows! But I’m happy to say, I didn’t buy anything for 2024 and am just using up my stash right now. I had one dated July 2023-June 2024, so really that will do for now. 😅
I just love your soothing voice. Whatever you talk, i will listen to it. And i love that you started your own small business when you’re very young and continued to do so with determination. Keep it up, you’re doing great ❤
Journaling while watching your videos just gives me this feeling of comfort that I can't explain.. I love these videos! I l also love how there's no structure to your daily spreads.. and do I have to mention that they're always soooo damn adorable and inspirational? Hope you had a lovely week Helen
thanks for posting this helen! I hope you are feeling less stressed soon; you're doing so great! I would really love to work on making my journaling pages more fun and playful like yours, because mine tend to be a bit boring and mostly black and white (this is for my preference -- lots of cool journals I've seen are black and white and have a similar layout across most pages, i just tend to get bored of that for myself) anyway, i'll definitely be taking inspiration from your doodles, headers, and colorful decorations :)
I’m a plein air oil painter artist! Trying to use my Weeks to plan my art projects, trips, and gallery stuff. If you cant paint big, small more often is better ❤ would love to see your recipe journal
I take breaks from IG and FB groups regularly. Mostly for the reason you said. I need a break from electronics. I only use FB for groups. IG is the one social media I use regularly. Your nephew IS adorable! It can be hard to separate work life from your personal life when your work evolved from your hobby. (I assume this so I could be WAY wrong. I can imagine it would be difficult) Hang in there and take care of you. ❤
Also, totally normal. I still get anxiety from my auto accident in 8/2019. I’ve changed my driving style a bit more, even. It wasn’t my fault, either. Just wrong place, wrong time.
Helen, you are very inspirational. We are all going through changes. Maybe add an new character in your lineup. Just curious on what you would chose. 😊❤
Thank you for another great journaling video, Helen. Will you have a new video sharing your thoughts on the black inks you have been using since last year? 🖋🐧
I really like your videos ,you gave me so much inspiration to journal.from some days I wasn't doing any kind of spreads in my journal cause of my mental health but truly you gave me inspiration to start again. Definitely gonna start again from tomorrow and also THANK YOU SO SO MUCH !!!!!!
Hi Helen, love the JMW-video, as always. You are such an inspiration 🤩 I was just wondering if the way you draw people (like on your Monday page) has a specific drawing style? Is this art style called something? I'm not over familiar with the art lingo but I wish to learn to draw people with only a black pen like this. Thanks for sharing 🥰 /Annie
Helen, I am also wanting to unplug more. The majority of facebook has become an unhealthy place for me mentally. IG is ok but FB has been difficult lately. I would delete my account if it were not for your group and a few others.
🍕🍗 Remarkable employment. I stand inclined toward, stamp-die-cut washi tape. Insignias stand evolving as bygone. I loathe, the to-do list as it comes across as exhausting. 🍗🍕 #Journaling 🍗🍕
If it makes you feel better about driving, I ended up flipping my car because I did a swerve back to my lane too fast and I ended up losing control and hitting the center divider, I only had really bad bruises from the seatbelt. That was 8 years ago too, oddly enough, so don't let a mild fender bender get to you, it happens and no one got hurt.

That's my fave pizza too!!!
SO good!
Hi Helen, could you kindly share the colour codes for the Tombow dual brush pens used in this video? 🙂 appreciate it so much!
Happy Sunday, Helen. What is the nail color you're using?! So pretty. Hugs!
Happy Sunday Christina! Gahh unfortunately I'm not sure :( My salon just has colours numbered!
❤❤❤
Helen, I am also wanting to unplug more. The majority of facebook has become an unhealthy place for me mentally. IG is ok but FB has been difficult lately. I would delete my account if it were not for your group and a few others.
I totally understand! I try not to scroll/browse as much but just visit the groups/accounts that inspire me!
Hi Helen! What ink do you use in your fountain pen?
DeAtramentis Document Black ink (in this video)
🍕🍗 Remarkable employment. I stand inclined toward, stamp-die-cut washi tape. Insignias stand evolving as bygone. I loathe, the to-do list as it comes across as exhausting. 🍗🍕

I love your videos!! Lots of love from india🇮🇳😊
I bet you can't pin me!
lovely spreads helen 🤍 hope 2024 can be a year of being gentle with yourself!!!
Love you so much Lauren!!!
Will you do a let's see all your fountain pens video?
I can so do that!!
Pizza with no cheese is a Rhode Island specialty. I dislike it…. 😅 but everyone else loves it.
Always enjoy your weekly Sunday videos!!! What pen/marker did you use to write Movie Night Snacks?
Tombow dual brush pen
