I used to say divorce isn’t an option but that kept me trapped in a terribly toxic marriage for years. There is life after divorce, a better life at that
thank you!! I'm a christian and more often then not I see married couples in the church who have cheated on each other etc. and don't get divoreced just because in the bible its "forbidden". I think believing divorce isn't an option is just a very old fashioned way of thinking.
I have friends who’s in their 30s, have gotten divorced after a toxic relationship, they’re now at their happiest.
This is the reason why I keep saying “life’s season” maybe you’re meant to be married but only for a season, and maybe you’re meant to live a life that’s just you, or maybe you meet another soulmate. But know that life ‘s season will always be different, it does not have to be just one thing. And you can be happy in all of those seasons, a different kind of happy.
Ageed.
@@AnnSalasYes! I totally agree with the seasonal outlook. Living unhappily married can be absolutely soul crushing and I did it for 7 years (not a good season for sure). 4 years later I’m thriving so much more now at 36 than I ever did in my 20s!
@@minfires7572 If I may, in the Bible actually it mentions that separation (in other words "divorce") can happen and be permitted with reasonable reasons, with cases such as "violence/abuse", immorality, etc. God encourage to mantain the family united, and so trivial reasons shouldn't be a cause for separation. Though he permits one to decide if one's partner have to be forgiven or not if there's a cause..
I truly love how thoughtful and transparent you were in this. It’s nice to have such personal sit down videos like this but I’m glad you’re finding balance between your personal life and RUclips. Love you ❤
thanks Khalilah 🥹🫶
You are such a brilliant communicator. This was the perfect balance of honestly, authenticity and boundaries. Looking forward to hearing more of about you and your stories :)
🥹🥹 thanks Emmy
Those are super understandable reasons to be less visible. So excited to hear from you though ❤ thanks for keeping it real with us!
🥹💗
Couldn’t agree more. Loved her transparency ❤
Rowena worried about ppl not liking her/misconstruing her opinions: 🗿
Rowena's potatoes: literally just chilling for 20 mins being proud and so happy of her 🥹

But fr, we all love you Ro and are so excited for your future. Understand taking a step back from YT but hopefully you can continue creating videos based on what you truly care for! (would love more spirituality content c:)
Thank you for being a shining light in the darkness of 'da interwebz'.
totally understand your view of cancel culture and I appreciate you being you ~ I think its really key you create for you and not always being pushed or influenced by others or keeping up with trends. Balance is something im trying to do more its tricky.
Glad you're back on YT posting
Congratulations on the engagement! My husband and I agree that forever roomies is a wonderful thing. All the best wishes for blessing to you in this upcoming season!
So excited for you for this new chapter in your life! Wishing you all the best & stay safe! ❤️🥔
thanks Marie 🥹
I was really nervous when I saw the title of this video. I thought you were leaving yt. You're my absolute favorite youtuber now but if you ever decide to really leave, I would still be really happy for you. As usual, watching another video from you grounded me and I don't even understand why. Thank you for your honesty with us and I love the quote that you shared.
Wishing you the best! ❤ Change is the only constant. Enjoy your next chapter.
2 kids in and 32...i'm still a baby. literally spoke about this with a friend. i am responsible enough to raise minis but still remain very young. and my youngness comes out the most with the minis and they love it. So you can still be a baby potato while raising mini baby potatoes :)
this was very reassuring 🥹 thanks Cristina 💗
I started watching your videos when I just got a job. You help me survive those struggling years. Now you are entering another chapter of your life and as for me studying again for another degree. So thank you Rowena for everything ❤.
This is the first of your videos I’ve ever watched and it was so cozy and warm 🥰 I love sit down, personal videos and this is giving me the confidence to make one myself 🫶🏽
I just found you and I’m really enjoying your videos! They’re so calming and the advice you give is so genuine! This is exactly what I was looking for, it’s a peaceful reminder to my day!
I'm very grateful for you Rowena, you don't know how much of a good impact you have put on my life till now.
Thank you sm for everything 💓 i hope you always find happiness and peace in all your steps in life
😭😭💗 thanks Ereni!!
youre such a role model to me, thank you for your videos. pls prioritize yor mental safety. take time away whenever you need it! love you! ❤
grateful for you Amy! 💗
I haven't watched the video yet I'm gonna download it and watch after my class but I just want to say thank you Rowena❤ you will probably never know how much your channel helped me during 2020 and much of high school...i hope you continue to be blessing no matter where you go and what you do❤❤❤
love you ro, always excited for every version of you.
your sweatshirts are always so cute!! 💜💜
thank u 🤭🫶
Mazel Tov on your engagement! Sometimes forgetful of how serendipitous your channel can be. Forever thankful for you.
Thanks for being so transparent with us, totally understandable reasons to be away from YT, but I hope I can still hear from you, you inspire me to be a better person to myself, I truly admire you. I wish the best for the next version of Rowena you want to head to ❤ sending love and hugs back!😊
Thanks!! I feel like when I watch your videos, you "give me permission" to be myself, because you are authentic. I'm turning 60 this year and I don't want to pretend anymore. But it's so hard at my age to change because people expect you to be who they're used to. Ya know?
🥹🥹 cheers to not pretending moving forward! a phrase my coach shared with me, and that I've been reminding myself is that I have "nothing to prove" to myself, or to anyone else around me 💗
Whatever age you are, your happiness is what counts. Other people will catch up and if they don’t they’re not meant for that phase in your life. 🙏🏻💗
It's also a topic that I am working on. I am 38
Do what’s right for you in this season of life! ❤ and social media feels noisy like a screaming match with lots of click bait. You’re in our thoughts Rowena
love the gentleness of this video 💜 Please know that I very much appreciate your content 🙏
🥹🥹🫂🫶
I love so much your videos !! 🥰 Watching them always makes me feel so much grounded 💖😇
Rowena, thank you so much for sharing your sincere thoughts with us! You gave me so much more courage to navigate the most uncertain part of my life right now. You will get where you want to be without doubts. So excited to see what’s in store for you :)
🥹😭🫶 thanks tea!!!
Thank you for sharing your life updates with us, wishing you all the best! 🙏💕
This was such a honest yet heartwarming video, love your content and you were missed🥰
Loveeeeee this and you Ro!!!! Whenever you post about whatever you post imma be here sis!
love you rowe. youre so wise, i know for a fact youll have a successful marriage and be an incredible mom
I love how transparent and authentic you are! I absolutely love this kind of videos. Also, please where is this incredible sweater from? ❤❤❤
You're the best Ro. Thanks for the insights!!! I wish you love, like Laufey would say ❤❤❤
wishing you love right back 🥹🫶
Really loved your honesty in this, such a great video!
thanks Klaire 🥹🫶
Rowena you're the best! Any time I want to feel uplifted/more aligned/relaxed I always come to your videos 🥰 I love that I'd literally just made a fresh tea ready to watch this and then felt like we were doing it together when you made one haha... also ginger latte sounds sooo good.
grateful & honored to be apart of your chill time 🥹
@@rowena 💕🥔 thank u
I don't know what it is, but I feel like talking to a best friend/older sister when I'm watching your videos. I truly look up to you and respect you so so much. Also, when I firstly found you on RUclips years ago, I thought to myself: ,,I wanna be like her and wanna learn from her." I am so thankful to have found you, because I grew so mush as a person, and I am giving you the part of the credit hehe. Thank you for always being open with your thoughts and povs and I hope you continue to enjoy life as you desire. I'll always look forward to your new videos. ❤
😭😭 THE ABSOLUTE SWEETEST. thank you endlessly Jana!! 💗
I wanna say thank you for this!!! ❤I body doubled while watching this. I used this video to get out of bed, get ready, and head over to my fiance's house. I feel very anxious on Saturdays and it's hard to get back out after working a 5am-1pm shift. But this video got me back out.
Thank you for being you:) I always feel validated from your videos. I have always found you relatable. But now it's cool how our lives continue to be similar. I have a recently new fiance too, Ill be 30 in a week or so, and I still find it hard to balance out people pleasing with maintaining safe boundaries, also I'm an old soul, and my belief in my spiritual practice is very important to me too. You actually inspired me to get back into my faith and start reading the bible more. Anyway love to you❤❤❤ and all you go through 🙏
rowenaaa can you make a video on how you budget your expenses 😭 notion templates too on budgeting pleaaaase. Would be great to share also the financial mistakes you made or things you wished you knew in your 20s
I will love you and watch whatever and whenever you post.. i do miss your videos, but I rewatch all your videos. You are a great inspiration.. i love you Rowena..
😭 thanks Heather!! 💗
I’ve been watching for years - first time commenting. Love love love your honesty. Thank you for sharing with us. I feel like I have been and still am growing right along with you. ❤
I absolutely loved this video with my whole heart 💜
thanks Araceli 🥹
Thanks for sharing all these 💕💕 feels like I am talking with my bestie
You’re literally the best Rowena
I love all your videos 🥺 just you talking or vlogging is great
thanks Mihlali 💗
omg i didn't expect you to be an INFJ comrade but it makes so much sense hahah props to us for living the most tiring lives and being the 1% weirdos \TT/
high five to that 😮💨🤣💗
I am so surprised that you are a fellow infj too!
Totally makes sense why I was so drawn to your channel from when I first discovered it. 😊❤
i'm not updated with your instagram posts and am only closely following you through your youtube videos, and even then i still take my time in watching them so like this video was uploaded on april 6th and i'm watching it on may 1st,,,, i'm so late to the game but CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR ENGAGEMENT, BIG SISTER ROWENA !! i'm so happy for you and am so grateful i found you here on the interwebs
Well congratulations and we love you!
We love watching your evolution, it's so beautiful to see! I missed the engagement announcement on IG so congrats!!
the kindest words 🥹 thanks Alycia!! 💗
Wow, truly an amazing video. What I have learned from you is that the sooner we "trust the process and embrace it" the sooner our life will be better. Thank you Rowena : ), Keep going !!!!!!!. Lots of love from Toronto.☺
Each time I watch one of yours vids I feel really connect w/myself. Seems like you're some guide into my deepest me xD.
Im really exited to hear about this new era for U.
I'm honored!! and thank you 🥹🫶
I found your channel last year and have been such a fangirl since. I take notes, i look up things you suggest. I wrote down books you read. I share you to friends and family. I’m definitely inspired. Curious, and I can’t believe this question wasn’t asked-what books are reading right now or lately that you like?
grateful for you M!! 🫶 there hasn't been any amazing books I've come across lately, but maybe that's because I've been listening to more podcasts!! Tim Ferriss is still an absolute fave
Love you, Ro
Your a lovely person, and carry such charisma. Well wishes on your next journey ❤.
🥲🫶 big hugs
I think you might be my favorite youtuber ❤️
I was looking for your videos cus i needed a boost up now that I've finished college and have NO IDEA WHAT TO DO. I mean, I have some plans in the long run, but I feel like this is my first break since 2019 and I don't know whether to start relaxing, wroking on personal projects, applying for jobs, taking a vacation, or just sleeping in for a week. I've been waking up for the last couple of days feeling really weird. Like a sort of anxiousness for having no things to do.
But anyway, looking for a boost up from your old videos, I realized youtube hasn't been recommening to me any of your latest videos for months! I'm super sad about that cus I love your content.
Thanks!! very honest, and interesting q and a and I feel has inspired and helped me
thank you Tali 🥹
Me encantan tus videos, me han motivado a buscar una rutina sana y productiva, tengo ideas más claras. Gracias por compartir tus experiencias 👋🏻💕
Love your videos Rowena🫶🏽🤍✨️ also we need a fashion look book vid or something! Your fits are so good🫰🏽💖
aww thanks Alina!! perhaps I'll share more fashion content on my vlog channel 🤭
I am in my law class right now but I cannot wait to get out of class to watch this!!
hope classes went swimmingly! 💗
Love this vid!! :)
You can do it!
Love you Rowena!
hi Sophia 🤭🫶
so happy to watch this video ^^
thanks Thi 🥹🫶
All the best for the move. If you haven't already learned about Montessori education, I think you would like it. It's something you can learn about as you're thinking about having children, and ideally it's best if parents are preprepared, even before conception.
Love the laundry doom pile and the girl math on the pants
ROWENA I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU AND JAMS!!!! CONGRATULATIONS
HEHE THANK YOU!! 🫶
yay rowena!!! so cool you're an INFJ as well hehe. and I appreciate you sharing your thoughts on celibacy!
She's an ENFP ;) It's not uncommon to see ENFPs mistype as INFJs tho.
ENFPs do have that INFJ unconscious dual shadow side...so INFJs and ENFPs do have shared traits of each other because of that dual shadow aspect. In short, they are the inside out versions of each other, hence the understandable confusion.
Meaning for example, despite their carefree initial impression in private ENFPs can let out more of their serious emo INFJ side in private; and INFJs despite their serious reserved demeanor upon initial impression are often more playful & hilarious than they initially appear as they let out their goofy ENFP side more in private.
Thanks for sharing your update
🥹🥹 非常感謝 🫶
Absolutely love all your content and much more is the jumper you are wearing 💕where is it from?
Would love to know too ❤
yayy i love a chill chat
thanks Mariel!! candles are from a brand called HAY 🤭
Love youuuuu
Your hot take on transitioning to a more conventional/conservative lifestyle is really valuable. I also went from not spiritual to spiritual - would never go back. 🙏🏻
Great video! Congratulations on your engagement, I’m so happy for you.❤
thank you so much Amanda 🥹💗
" I want to be horizontal all the time" PERIOD.
the goal: 🛌
watching this made me really happy, warm & fuzzy inside. so so happy for you, and always going to feel a really close connection with you even though we haven't met or may never meet
😭🫶 who's cutting onions hereee
The lighting of the match 😂
much concentration 🤭
I love your sweatshirt! Where did you get it? ☺
Also, glad you are well! Keep doing you~
Wow. This is so helpful. I just left another platform with a lot of followers and this helps SO MUCH.
Love the sweater! Where can we get it?
Dude YES TOE HOLDING
underrated 🤭
I love you
❤️❤️❤️
hi Avery 🫶
First!! ❤
TEXT HUG!!! 💗
Where did you get that sweater??!
still feel like a baby 💯❤
baby potatoes 🙈😮💨😂
I. Love. This. Video... ❤
🥹😭🫶 thanks Breanna!
@@rowena You are most welcome! 😊
Sad my question didn't make it but happy we get to see you in this light again 🥰 Excited for the next chapter of your life, "baby" Ro! 👶 Hehe appreciate the time and effort you put into making these videos!
baby rooo :') grateful for you Arra! oo what was your question? I'll answer here 💗
@@rowena omg thank u 🥹 I wanted to ask if there was ever a point when you felt "torn" in being celibate, or maybe a time when you considered giving it up? And how you deal with that kind of situation ☺️
❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Could you share where did you get the hoodie? ❤😛
I miss your videos, but can also understand why you’ve stepped back.
🥹🥹🫶
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
hope to be like u
Not being enough -> perfectionist = thank you for saying that out loud.
Also, you will know when the right time is to have a baby. You really don't know until it happens :)
You didn’t get a tooth pulled did you?! Lol I’d try my darnedest not to develop dry socket (which dislodges your blood clot and causes the nerves to be exposed and hurts a TON), and sucking on straws can apparently cause that!
But glad you’re okay! And thanks for the update!
ah! thankfully just a little cavity 😅

Suze Orman used to say that if people make different salaries, they should contribute the same % to expenses. For example if one person makes $1000 a month, and the other makes $5000 a month, they both should contribute 20% to the rent. So one person would contribute $200 and the other one $1000. Then the couple would live in a $1200 apartment. not NYC.obviously😉
Now I'm curious about Jams' MBTI 😂 I am an INFJ myself, and my husband is an ENFJ, after morphing multiple times over the many years.
he's also INFJ 🤭
@@rowena How precious! Two of the rare types found each other 😃
Does anyone know what happened to the productive potatoes community on vibely😢 I can't seem to find it anymore, did it move to somewhere else
The celibacy part is a bit confusing. I think based on the question asked: "thoughts on celibacy/wait till marriage", you meant to say that you do not recommend pre-marital intimacy but do recommend celibacy? I am 100% with you on that. There are other ways to show affection. Sad that lots of people don't how to be loved and love others.
Can someone please tell me the kdrama she’s referring to? I thought I heard “coloured love” but I can’t find it on Google.
call it love!
Thanks love!
