Glad you’re going back to the more personal side, which is what I had initially loved…. I would love to see clothing and fashion content, would love to see interior decorating, house tours,etc.
I've always liked the day in the life vlogs. the business advice, Q and A. I liked the occasional personal day in the life too.it'll be great that you'll get to do more of what you love.
Can we see more content on the the bad side of the business !!! Designers don’t show the bad side AT ALL! How do you handle a project that’s gone bad? What DOES go bad? How does your team handle it? We want to see the bad side as well… if anyone else agrees please like this comment ;)
I would like to see, how you manage all this stuff, you have your company, youtube channel, your other projects, you always look amazing :) love your wardrobe!! you have time for sports, how you do all this??!!
Karin l appreciate these sit downs. I love your creativity, work ethic and transparency. I'm a place in my life where I'm trying to figure which way l want and need to pivot career and personal wise. I love your Day in the life vlogs. Even if you're relaxing and running errands.
I think that the shift from House of Bohn exclusively to Personal / Interior Design is a great shift. I particularly also love Bohn Appetite with a few receipts and things like that 👏🏼🙌🏼 sometimes takes the understanding that a step back is the best way to get impulse for many steps forward…downsizing on your case actually means expansion to an extent. Congratulations on everything Karin, you love the camera and the feeling is mutual so good to watch! ( editing is A M A Z I N G as well ) ❤️
Hi Karin! - WOW, WOW, WOW! I am so happy to see that you have altered the space to reflect exactly what you and HOB stand for and represent, marrying your love for media and interior design. As an OG subscriber, I have had the privilege and joy of following the journey and evolution over many years. During this time I have loved all the content, my favourite type of content is the vlogs and the way you created them with a theme and a message, I have felt that there has always been sincerity, authenticity and a genuine connection with you. That being said my intuition was telling me that there was much more being experienced for you, those in your life, the team and HOB as a business that you were not ready to share yet. And you know what, that was and still is absolutely fine. Sharing everything as and when it happens with everyone is not healthy, nor do you have to share it at all. Getting our bearings, being on one path to only find that it leads to another (one that is often very different than what we expected and scares the hell out of us), taking time to recalibrate, regenerate, and reignite the fire at what seems to be the most inconvenient and worse timings ever, and sometimes realising we just got it wrong this time round reminds us that this journey is going to make us grow and live in ways we never knew. Your journey is yours, and 'you do you', that being said I cannot wait to see what is coming. 'In Good Company' is a great homage 'with a twist' to the cocktail conversations and I really look forward to seeing the vlog content with all of the transformations and changes you discussed in this video. It's Okay to Not Be Okay, and Thank You for sharing your journey, past, present and future. You are an inspiration to us all xxx
I love that you're showing how personal success is not about the size of a company, the number of employees you have, the number of hats you're wearing. Love to hear more about your transition of downsizing and comparison with what was your path/where you were 😊 go Karin!
Lovely to see you back in this way, Karin! I have followed for a few years and have been so inspired. I can’t wait for more vlogs and I’m so happy to see you are in a much better space. The business content is incredible and to see your projects come to a finish is amazing. However, I also love the more vulnerable footage, the behind the scenes and just being woman not only in business but in life and dealing with everything that comes with that!! Thank you for always sharing and being so inspiring and here’s to an amazing rest of 2021 xx
This was such a nice talk and I love that you say that you will focus on the channel to be a personal relationship. Would love to see more personal content and vlogs 💕
I’ve been watching for years and I’m rewatching videos again. I’m so excited for the prospect of you doing another house remodel! I love watching the process and seeing the outcome.
More business talk and lessons learned please! You mentioned the book "company of one" in one of your videos and it changed my perspective on business.
Karin, I have been watching your videos since I was in Law School a few years ago. You have remained an incredible reminder to me that the long hours and patience with the process will be worth it (regardless of our different careers choices). Thank you for being an amazing leader that we can look up to. Sending you and your team lots of love all the way from South Africa!!🌻✨ and definitely great editing to J!! 🔥😍
Yay! Miss the old vlogs, they were so candid and raw!!! Always appreciate when you share your struggles and changes, we all have them... hoping for blogs like you had 3 years ago
Alleluja!!! I am extremely happy about your decision.. I fell in love with your Chanel because it was about you not so much about the firm.. I love to see you and your love for decorating your house. You made the best decision and yes life is too short.. big hugs 🤗
That's a great update and great news! I started watching you a few years ago, I was very inspiring for me to see how you built your design practice. And as much as I love your style and projects, I must admit that I was visiting your channel less frequently lately... As an interior designer just starting on my own I feel very often overwhelmed, really not knowing which way to go to get my business up and going. I also know it's my mindset I need to work on. I would love to see more content where you talk about the bumps you hit when running your business and how you overcome and deal with problems, external and internal. I loved your honesty and openness in this video, thank you for sharing this with all of us ❤
Girl, I never understood how you were able to take on so much extra work! This was enlightening. BTW, I once read an account by someone who used to work with Kelly Wearstler say that her business was sheer chaos, so maybe the biggies get overwhelmed too. Interior design has so many moving parts and details, I can't imagine how you did so many other things. Also glad to hear you jettison "the brand" . . . I'm too old to appreciate the modern emphasis on "brand" . . . we used to just live.
So happy to hear this! You are your brand and I love watching to see you and a glimpse of your real life! Just about to go and rewatch your winter wardrobe video as it’s winter here in Australia and I love your style! 💓
You are such an inspiration and so good at manifesting! So happy that you've had a turn around and I can't wait to see what you continue to create! Blessings aplenty!🤗🤗
You are a big part of how I look at my interior design business. I have learnt soo much from watching you. Thankyou for being transparent and keeping it real. Have soo much to learn from you. Lots of love!
Great format - yeah liking the ‘you, me & us’ approach to the filming. Mega personable. 2019 & 2020 have been rough like you 2021 took me down however, having a good look at priorities and off loading what wasn’t mine or working was good. Your honesty about your struggles makes us all feel like it’s ok to take a step back. Much thanks for being candid. 🆓 On the way up ⬆️ 👏🏾👏🏾😀
I love seeing how you live as well as the business side of things. How you look after yourself, your routines, your beliefs (manifesting, etc). It's very inspirational to see the actions that you take to get to where you are today. The interior design process for your projects is always fun to watch too!
I’m sure it’s hard for you to make these videos but I love when you do. I love how open you are about your struggles because we all have them, no one is perfect. Running your own business is a lot of work and it’s always evolving and you have to make changes for what works for you. I’m so glad your doing better and have some good goals to work towards.
Wow what a real video this was! Thank you so much Karin for sharing all your emotions and what's been going on behind the scenes. Think this involved a lot of courage to break those updates to the whole. That's what drew me to you - the realness, the ups and downs, the behind the scenes, the heartfelt thoughts.. Definitely looking forward to more vlogs and you sharing your thoughts. Such a great reminder that life is not 100% perfect and especially after such a tough year, people don't expect things to work out the way they should. I'm rooting for you!!!
Thanks so much for sharing. My fave are the project tours. Would love to continue hearing about small business development and managing and interior design business for starters eg how to get and retain clients, pay structure, project end to end etc
Such an inspirational and honest vlog, great to hear about highs, lows and brave decisions such as the downsizing, I first started following you after seeing you on Netflix and as an interior designer myself over in the UK you’re the only person I watch doing this kind of thing If I’m feeling uninspired you’re my first go-to! You’re like a moving, talking, real magazine x
Glad to see you back to uploading regularly, I learnt so much from your content in running my small business. I would love to see more content about the Do\Don't for business owners; it will be so so helpful. And the learnings you gained from your personal experiences.
Congrats Karin!!!🎉🎉🎉As an OG subscriber I would love to see more Vlogs, business updates, tours and would still love to see you wing it! Your journey has been so INSPIRING! 🙌🏽🧡🎉🎉🎉 Always makes me wanna pick up the camera and document life! Much continued success👑
I love that you are going back to more personal videos because thats what I personally love the most. So in regards to your question about what videos, I would love more insight in your routines - planning, morning, evening, setting up for success, meditation, thought process etc 😀 xx from Berlin
Thank you for the sharing. I was missing this vlog's, and your ideas, reflections and learnings, and day in a life. You are a strong and amazing woman, keep going, all is going to be ok.
Honestly love everything you've come out with in videos, so whatever you decide to do next will be amazing. Kuddos for having the courage to change and recognizing that even though your company was working and functioning amazingly, it wasn't working for you. After all thats the most precious thing about owning your own company, you have the power to make it what you want! 💙💙💙 Looking forward to what's next!
A☺ww Karin! Thank you for being so open and honest with us! I wish you all the best in this new phase of your career. I definitely miss the entrepreneurship content!!!!
Karin thank you so much for the update..I have been watching for years..so HAPPY you made this catch up video.. I enjoyed the video with Jillian it was a great interview. I would love to see day in the life...grwm... thanks for sharing your life and your projects with us.
I really enjoyed watching this and listening to all the changes you made and why, thank you. On the future content side I really loved your day in the life vlogs and the finished project tours.
Glad you shared this, as an entrepreneur in the design field it is refreshing to see someone humble enough to show the other side of the “glamorous” design life. Thank you for being this brave and thank you for walking the walk and talking the talk that everyone is scared to let anyone else see. THANK YOU!
Love the video and I’ve been watching for 5 years. I loved your channel for the real content. You showed days at the office, growing pains, work meetings, negotiations, figuring out media content etc etc. it was very real and was so excited every time you put up a new video. Then it became more scripted and less real time sharing of what you were dealing with and I still watched bc I understood that as a business grows you don’t always want to share as much. I just found myself going back and watching old videos of yours a lot over the last 2 years. I’m very excited to hear that you’re considering going back to your previous content but with a new twist. Love the new series! I love hearing how other entrepreneurs got their start. Thank you for the content and for sharing a lot of real time business tips and things you’ve learned along the way. Best wishes on the house hunting!
My first introduction to you was your RUclips channel, and I loved watching you design your home. I’ve enjoyed every single vlog since. I’m looking forward to your next personal design project!
I will love to see a podcast! Discussing different topics. I look at you as a role model, and i will love to see you talk about all the challenges you have face and how you overcome them. Thank you for being so real in front of the camera❤️
It' s been 4 to 5 years now following you from France. You are one of my Huge inspiration, thank you for being true to yourself you are inspiring. I wish you the Best! whatever you'll do because you have the passion and still manage to take care of your wellbeing: it is sooo important!!!!May GOD bless you!
I really did appreciate seeing the house of bohn content, especially you building and managing that brand (small biz/interior design brand). Still in awe with how you seemed to manage it all so well. Having said that, I think Karen Bohn is also a brand of its own (beyond the interior design and small biz) and would love to see how you build that “brand” outside of house of bohn. Perhaps it would be good to have two separate YT channels to build those brands separately? Just a thought but given the stress you’re trying to release not sure if you have the bandwidth to manage 2 YT channels 😅
Thank you for sharing with us. I can totally relate to "less is more" and the importance of keeping things simple and manageable. Always strived for it in my own business as well. Keep up the awesome work and sending you lots of good vibes for what's to come!
Hello Karen, I am so sorry to hear you re burned out- on the other hand I already wondered just HOW you manage the immense workload. Together with personal losses, I think it seems almost like an unevatable consequence. I wish you the best from Germany! May you get the rest you need for your wellbeing. And I am looking forward for bohnafide 2.0 🤗
Yes more fashion, travel, and you! That’s why we are here sis. I’m not an interior designer or an entrepreneur. You just inspire me and I like your vibe.
I used to really look forward to a video every Monday morning and missed that when it stopped being so regular. I’d love to see more person content mixed with work. I think you’re great!!
Love this video! One of the things I love about you is your authenticity. So this is very in keeping with why I love following you. Also, from a small design business owner, seeing this approach is much more realistic to achieve.
Mazeltov!!! Oscar needs his own Show "The Art of Cool". It was really good to see the evolution of an entrepreneur and worrying about the brand was a good thing because you were growing a business and it was amazing to watch you create employment and impact Vancouver's interiors where customers enjoy their lives. I enjoyed watching your professional life level up and add value.
Thank you so much for this video and all your videos! You are an inspiration for us newer Interior Design business owners that struggle. This really helped me with the emotional side of things know I am learning from you too! Keep up the great work and staying connected to yourself on your journey!
As an entrepreneur (who does interior design and owns a furniture and decor store) I went through the exact same thing at year 9 of 13. After year 10 I came to the realization that “right-sizing” means keeping the team small, accepting only the highest quality projects and being at peace that the value of having fun and keeping happy outweighs my bank account. Proud of you and more people need to hear that “rightsizing” is also a valued chapter of the entrepreneur journey.
Thank you for being so transparent. Your advice and genuine experiences are so helpful for a small business owner as myself. :) You’re inspiring because of your transparency.
Karen you are very strong classy lady! Stay true to yourself and the rest will unfold ...love the personal side of things and really enjoy everything you do - YOU do YOU Girl!!
I love to hear your update & your decisions to downsizing your company. During this covid time most of the entrepreneurs having a hard time to maintain our own companies. I agreed that as Interior Designer you need to be a bit picky or chose only the best client to do their project. We ourselves are very selective in chosing our projects butwe believe that quality is more important than the quantity. All the best Karin & House of Bohn team. Been following you for years. Keep on sharing the great example of Interior Designer with passion & charming personality. ❤️
I started watching for the business content. But I definitely do not mind the AMAZING interior design that you do. Love the day in the life vlogs like when you were at the old studio.
Good to be Here again! I love to listen to your business strategy plan for the brand future and growing pains that will lead you to a sustainable growth. I had worked for a lot of big companies and currently I work for a big Pharma company and all companies have best practices guidelines for effective company downsizing practices and I had being part of it. Good luck! I love the life vlogs. the business advices and tips, Q and A...but I would love to see you doing a masterclass type of video but for us in this channel. Be blessed, Yana!
Thank you for sharing all of this! It's really brave and raw and I really appreciate it. I love your lifestyle videos as well as I would like to learn more about the journey of searching for management. I wish you all the best!
Thanks for sharing! I would love to know more about the team and the different roles, maybe like “a day with...” so it gives a perspective of the company and interior design, management, challenges,...
I remember that COVID company update ... I was inspired by your intent to protect your team. I can also relate to the burnout of managing through a crisis, without the back-up to be able to look away. Happy about your successful transition ... Best wishes from Barbados! 🌺
You didn't have to make this video but from entrepreneur to entrepreneur, I honour you. You are leading with integrity in a time when it's much easier to not. I love your awareness around your feelings. That's such a super power. And however you desire to express yourself... I'll watch! I enjoy witnessing your evolution! You rock sister! Xo Emilie
This is truly inspiring! I am embarking on a new chapter of my own, as a result of some major transitions in my life lately. And it is so inspiring to see you: a successful entrepreneur, pause and take stock, reflect and reevaluate and have the courage to make the necessary changes to make your hard work worthwhile and joyful! Keep up the good work Karin, we are watching!
3:15 the editor missed out on removing your edit comment Good to see you after so long on your business side 😚 In good company is excellent, please upload it as a podcast too! And i , as a fellow Interior Architect and Designer have been here for quite some long now, love what you do! Would love to see more content on how to start a new business, how to advertise, how to take on projects
More sit downs like these! Would love to hear growing your yt channel journey, how you push yourself to go out of your comfort zone, what is your best mindfulness practice and would love to hear some financial talk, how to balance finances in small business :)
I am so glad that you are turning the wheels again because I did not like the content you published recently. It felt too commercial and you were just a spokesperson for a brand. I like the content to be more about you. Thumbs up for your desicion, you are brave to share your struggles. This from a 72 year old woman from Amsterdam.
Hey Karin, I Love your Journey and your Reality. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and Reasons on downsizing! 👍 no Male Entrepreneur would Stick with those thoughts or Even follow this idea to reach better quality- personally and professionally! I feel This as a female strength. And thank you for Opening up about it. to me this is huge!!! Much love from Germany, Loreen
Glad you’re going back to the more personal side, which is what I had initially loved…. I would love to see clothing and fashion content, would love to see interior decorating, house tours,etc.
Yes - love the clothing/fashion content idea!
So so good! Inspired by you. I love that you’re choosing YOU.
I've always liked the day in the life vlogs. the business advice, Q and A. I liked the occasional personal day in the life too.it'll be great that you'll get to do more of what you love.
Yes! More of the day in the life and business advice
Can we see more content on the the bad side of the business !!! Designers don’t show the bad side AT ALL! How do you handle a project that’s gone bad? What DOES go bad? How does your team handle it? We want to see the bad side as well… if anyone else agrees please like this comment ;)
As an entrepreneur that is struggling to find work life balance I would love to see a morning\evening routine.❤️
Me too sis
I would like to see, how you manage all this stuff, you have your company, youtube channel, your other projects, you always look amazing :) love your wardrobe!! you have time for sports, how you do all this??!!
Karin l appreciate these sit downs. I love your creativity, work ethic and transparency. I'm a place in my life where I'm trying to figure which way l want and need to pivot career and personal wise. I love your Day in the life vlogs. Even if you're relaxing and running errands.
I was drawn to your channel because of the a day in the life and talking about entrepreneurship

I agree - this was the most honest and connected
This was such a nice talk and I love that you say that you will focus on the channel to be a personal relationship. Would love to see more personal content and vlogs 💕

You are inspirational and bold! I love it!!! Congratulations on your new endeavors!!!
You are such an inspiration and so good at manifesting! So happy that you've had a turn around and I can't wait to see what you continue to create! Blessings aplenty!🤗🤗
The journey is the BEST part! I love how you told the story and brought it back home to how it all started...being raw and candid. Love it!
Congratulations and all the best in all your new beginnings. You have done an incredible job so far and I know your content will only get better
You are a big part of how I look at my interior design business. I have learnt soo much from watching you. Thankyou for being transparent and keeping it real. Have soo much to learn from you. Lots of love!

Love your ditl business vlogs! I’ve been rewatching your past ones.
Love the video and I’ve been watching for 5 years. I loved your channel for the real content. You showed days at the office, growing pains, work meetings, negotiations, figuring out media content etc etc. it was very real and was so excited every time you put up a new video. Then it became more scripted and less real time sharing of what you were dealing with and I still watched bc I understood that as a business grows you don’t always want to share as much. I just found myself going back and watching old videos of yours a lot over the last 2 years. I’m very excited to hear that you’re considering going back to your previous content but with a new twist. Love the new series! I love hearing how other entrepreneurs got their start. Thank you for the content and for sharing a lot of real time business tips and things you’ve learned along the way. Best wishes on the house hunting!
Can‘t wait to see „old style“ vlogs again. Sometimes I rewatch the old vlogs, especially the once from the old office. They have been so amazing… 🤩
I miss these types of videos on your channel with the topics and behind the scenes! Thanks Karin for all these videos and being so transparent.
Sounds like you are doing what's best for you. Having that ability is a blessing. I'm excited for this new chapter.
Pivot. Pivot. Pivot with intention! That’s what you are doing. I am so looking forward to this next chapter as you build your global empire.
My first introduction to you was your RUclips channel, and I loved watching you design your home. I’ve enjoyed every single vlog since. I’m looking forward to your next personal design project!
So good! Inspired by you, I apreciate the way you show everything especially you building and managing your brand, take care!!!
I will love to see a podcast! Discussing different topics. I look at you as a role model, and i will love to see you talk about all the challenges you have face and how you overcome them.
Thank you for being so real in front of the camera❤️
It' s been 4 to 5 years now following you from France. You are one of my Huge inspiration, thank you for being true to yourself you are inspiring. I wish you the Best! whatever you'll do because you have the passion and still manage to take care of your wellbeing: it is sooo important!!!!May GOD bless you!
What a bold and beautiful choice, Karin. I’m sure I am not alone in sending appreciation and support as your life grows and evolves.
I really did appreciate seeing the house of bohn content, especially you building and managing that brand (small biz/interior design brand). Still in awe with how you seemed to manage it all so well. Having said that, I think Karen Bohn is also a brand of its own (beyond the interior design and small biz) and would love to see how you build that “brand” outside of house of bohn. Perhaps it would be good to have two separate YT channels to build those brands separately? Just a thought but given the stress you’re trying to release not sure if you have the bandwidth to manage 2 YT channels 😅
Thank you for sharing with us. I can totally relate to "less is more" and the importance of keeping things simple and manageable. Always strived for it in my own business as well. Keep up the awesome work and sending you lots of good vibes for what's to come!
Appreciate the candor in this video! I’d love to see more about the new roles for your team and how you structure each persons set of responsibilities
Girl! I LOVED the first episode of In Good Company!!! Loving the interviews with bosses and Jillian was amazing.
Hello Karen, I am so sorry to hear you re burned out- on the other hand I already wondered just HOW you manage the immense workload. Together with personal losses, I think it seems almost like an unevatable consequence. I wish you the best from Germany! May you get the rest you need for your wellbeing. And I am looking forward for bohnafide 2.0 🤗
I loved this video ❤️🙏🏻 thank you for being such an inspiration! You rock it Karin & Bohn’s Team 👏🏻
Yes more fashion, travel, and you! That’s why we are here sis. I’m not an interior designer or an entrepreneur. You just inspire me and I like your vibe.
Thanks for sharing!
It's helpful to see the real picture of the business owner. And hear that but out is real and choosing priorities is necessary.
I used to really look forward to a video every Monday morning and missed that when it stopped being so regular. I’d love to see more person content mixed with work. I think you’re great!!
Love this video! One of the things I love about you is your authenticity. So this is very in keeping with why I love following you. Also, from a small design business owner, seeing this approach is much more realistic to achieve.
Would love to hear more about your IVF! How you plan on balancing a business and children. Love the content and get excited about hearing updates!
I didn't hear that mentioned. At what point in the vlog did she talk about IVF? I must of skipped around too much.
@@paulajf4205 she mentioned it in another vlog a while ago I think :)
SHE is pregnant, it' official... 🎉
@@dajanam.8483 How do. you know that? On what video does. she announce?
Every now and then we have to prune our lives and the things within our control that are affecting it and that takes great strength.
Mazeltov!!! Oscar needs his own Show "The Art of Cool". It was really good to see the evolution of an entrepreneur and worrying about the brand was a good thing because you were growing a business and it was amazing to watch you create employment and impact Vancouver's interiors where customers enjoy their lives. I enjoyed watching your professional life level up and add value.
Thank you so much for this video and all your videos! You are an inspiration for us newer Interior Design business owners that struggle. This really helped me with the emotional side of things know I am learning from you too! Keep up the great work and staying connected to yourself on your journey!
As an entrepreneur (who does interior design and owns a furniture and decor store) I went through the exact same thing at year 9 of 13. After year 10 I came to the realization that “right-sizing” means keeping the team small, accepting only the highest quality projects and being at peace that the value of having fun and keeping happy outweighs my bank account. Proud of you and more people need to hear that “rightsizing” is also a valued chapter of the entrepreneur journey.
Thank you for being so transparent. Your advice and genuine experiences are so helpful for a small business owner as myself. :) You’re inspiring because of your transparency.
Karen you are very strong classy lady! Stay true to yourself and the rest will unfold ...love the personal side of things and really enjoy everything you do - YOU do YOU Girl!!
Hi, I'm Mariann from Hungary. I loved your home project. I would love to see more interior design content. Keep up the great work ❤️
I love to hear your update & your decisions to downsizing your company. During this covid time most of the entrepreneurs having a hard time to maintain our own companies.
I agreed that as Interior Designer you need to be a bit picky or chose only the best client to do their project. We ourselves are very selective in chosing our projects butwe believe that quality is more important than the quantity.
All the best Karin & House of Bohn team. Been following you for years. Keep on sharing the great example of Interior Designer with passion & charming personality. ❤️
I started watching for the business content. But I definitely do not mind the AMAZING interior design that you do. Love the day in the life vlogs like when you were at the old studio.
Good to be Here again! I love to listen to your business strategy plan for the brand future and growing pains that will lead you to a sustainable growth. I had worked for a lot of big companies and currently I work for a big Pharma company and all companies have best practices guidelines for effective company downsizing practices and I had being part of it. Good luck! I love the life vlogs. the business advices and tips, Q and A...but I would love to see you doing a masterclass type of video but for us in this channel. Be blessed, Yana!
Never be afraid to re-invent oneself! This just reaffirms that message for me.
Thank you for sharing all of this! It's really brave and raw and I really appreciate it. I love your lifestyle videos as well as I would like to learn more about the journey of searching for management. I wish you all the best!
I'm very happy for you, remember we need to enjoy life every day, good luck in all your projects, and thank you for sharing your talent.💯
Thanks for sharing! I would love to know more about the team and the different roles, maybe like “a day with...” so it gives a perspective of the company and interior design, management, challenges,...
I remember that COVID company update ... I was inspired by your intent to protect your team. I can also relate to the burnout of managing through a crisis, without the back-up to be able to look away. Happy about your successful transition ... Best wishes from Barbados! 🌺
You didn't have to make this video but from entrepreneur to entrepreneur, I honour you. You are leading with integrity in a time when it's much easier to not.
I love your awareness around your feelings. That's such a super power.
And however you desire to express yourself... I'll watch! I enjoy witnessing your evolution!
You rock sister!

This is truly inspiring! I am embarking on a new chapter of my own, as a result of some major transitions in my life lately. And it is so inspiring to see you: a successful entrepreneur, pause and take stock, reflect and reevaluate and have the courage to make the necessary changes to make your hard work worthwhile and joyful! Keep up the good work Karin, we are watching!
Hi Karin! Been with you since you had 600 followers! What a journey! Loved the video. Keep it up 😘
Love a new style of editing, in particular layering instagram videos/pics on top of the main video!
Thanks, for sharing. Great talk, I'm here for whatever feeds you creatively, the best content is the content that the creator enjoys creating...
3:15 the editor missed out on removing your edit comment
Good to see you after so long on your business side 😚
In good company is excellent, please upload it as a podcast too!
And i , as a fellow Interior Architect and Designer have been here for quite some long now, love what you do!
Would love to see more content on how to start a new business, how to advertise, how to take on projects
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I know I've said this before but I really loved your day in the life's.
Great video love your honesty. Day in the life video would be great.
Hi Karin! First one to watch your video. Excited to watch!!
More sit downs like these! Would love to hear growing your yt channel journey, how you push yourself to go out of your comfort zone, what is your best mindfulness practice and would love to hear some financial talk, how to balance finances in small business :)
I am so glad that you are turning the wheels again because I did not like the content you published recently. It felt too commercial and you were just a spokesperson for a brand. I like the content to be more about you. Thumbs up for your desicion, you are brave to share your struggles. This from a 72 year old woman from Amsterdam.
Hey Karin, I Love your Journey and your Reality. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and Reasons on downsizing! 👍 no Male Entrepreneur would Stick with those thoughts or Even follow this idea to reach better quality- personally and professionally! I feel This as a female strength. And thank you for Opening up about it. to me this is huge!!!
Much love from Germany, Loreen
