Hi! I love this vlog but i would like to know what is your zodiac sign?
Hey Kalyn! Just wondering what song you used for the walk.
(Edit) If any of you were also curious, I found the song. Its Homeless Soul by Tories Douces.
Love from Chicago! We miss you 🤗
Love your videos, you have so much creativity and talent. You are my inspiration 😘😘
I can relate a lot
I prefer this kind of weekly vlogs, day-by-day.
Me too :)
me too :)
Same ❤️
Same!

Let’s be honest! The quotes with which you start your videos are the most underrated thing about them and I feel we don’t appreciate them enough!
i can NEVER read them
the print is too small and they flash too quickly
@@jmsl910 true! i wish she made them them pop up so more people would see because they are actually good!
I literally ss the quotes alll the time I love them sm
I love both styles of vlogs! The day to day is nice because it feels like we’re just hanging out, and the more curated theme ones are nice because you put the footage together in a very cohesive way based on the theme. I would suggest a balance of the two! Whichever style you intuitively are called to at that time is the style that is going to feel the most authentic when it’s posted. I’ve been loving your content lately by the way, it feels very real 💕 Good luck with your move btw, I’m moving in August too!
Yeah! Well said! Same perspective 👍
Totally agree with this!
Everything down to the music and production of your videos always goes along with the calming theme that you exude. I LOVE all of your videos and I always click on them right away :)
honestly i love both types of vlogs from you! don’t feel pressured to do just one kind but if one week you feel inspired to focus on a certain theme then do so but if another week you just want to share little bits and pieces of your everyday life then that’s perfect too! your content is so appreciated, kalyn
Balancing productivity and slowing down is a total mood for this year. Going to get my second cup of coffee to enjoy this vlog. ☕🖤🙌
I don’t need a theme, sometimes real life doesn’t have a theme and watching real ness is comforting right now.
I feel the exact same way of trying to find a balance between taking care of mental health/anxiety and being productive/confident in what gets accomplished each day
YOU are such an inspiration to me! can't believe I am actually here within a couple mins of you posting! I am literally in the middle of a catch up binge between your channels. Literally having a GYST day with major self care today with a face mask on. Love you girl and all your content. Appreciate everything you create 🥰 🌻🥰
PS: I enjoy both styles of videos 💕 it's nice to see your day in life and then mix it up with a theme is great cause you help us get out lives together. GYST vids have literally changed my life 😘
Wow, this was such a nice comment! Literally what I´m thinking too! ✨💕
I always go through phases of watching your content and every time I start again I remember how much I love it! It’s been awesome to see you grow as a women and also grow with you❤️
Me: *has 2 tests and an essay due*
Kalyn: *uploads a videos*
Me: yeah okay *clicks on video*
Lmao sameee, but instead I have two midterms plus a ton of hw due early next week 😅💜 #LoveYouKalyn
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I feel you!
Honestly, any kind of content you post is simply amazing Kayln. I love all your vlogs. They make me feel calm and inspired. ❤️ Don't feel pressured to change anything or push yourself too hard... We'll go with the flow ☺️
we love all content from you! I love both types, and mostly just want you to do what you feel inspired to do that day! I'm not more or less excited to find out that a video from you is an every day vlog or a themed one big day vlog, honestly! I think themed vlogs help grow you channel, because they've got keywords and searchable bits, but for us OG's it's definitely not the reason we're here anymore!
I love your spontaneous times you pick up your camera. It feels like talking to a friend instead of someone telling us what we should do.
i LOVED this vlog. I haven't noticed you being too objective tbh, but there is a different standard of your vulnerability in videos like this vs some others for sure. I do personally tend to prefer this kind of format overall although I definitely love themed ones as well and for you it's probably nice to do those where you just film that one time. I wanted to mention in terms of your hormones and period issues: I have endometriosis and also recurring cysts so i definitely have hellish periods. Someone recently mentioned "seed cycling" to me to help balance hormones and ease up on PMS symptoms. I just started doing it so I can't speak too much about it but I thought I'd mention it in case you haven't heard of it!
Honestly, I feel like your vlogs have a theme even if you don't try cause they always exude this calm and spiritual outlook on life. I don't think it's necessary to have a theme! Kalyn is a theme herself ;) love how honest and open you've gotten in these vlogs ❤️
I love the weekly just chill vlogs or days mashed up into a vlog. I also enjoy the coffee talks! I listen to them on my way to work or if I’m cleaning etc! They are awesome!
I love these daily unstructured vlogs because it feels like we are just hanging out, but I also love the vibe of a structured vlog where it's a whole mood and just aesthetic af! So basically all of your content I love and watch religiously
I love the realness on your videos. Your honest about your emotions and it is raw and real. It is much appreciated.
I’ve been on a throwback Kalyn binge, back to the days before your podcast or yoga training. Don’t ever forget how far you’ve come. 💫 Thanks for being an outlet for us. 💛
no structure is something I really enjoy! yet with that said, do what makes you happy from day to day or week to week! love seeling the growth and your truth which comes from within you!
I love the pieced together vlogs that just end up being a theme - they always seem to be the most relatable!
i love vlogs like this! they’re more raw and real💗keep doing you, whatever makes you happy!
I like you picking up the camera daily and giving us glimpses of your day. I think its great for us to see that your also struggling with things. nobody is having a great time right now and you being honest about where your at is always needed and appreciated:)
I prefer the day to day vlogs, especially this year. I think most of us resonate with the ups and downs you’re feeling right now too and it feels like we’re all just hanging out together/ a community going through this together. I think we get more inspo from your day to day than you think! Curated is also great but seeing someone else just going through their day to day, struggles and what you’re doing to keep going helps others a lot as well ♥️✨
*I love how calm you are in accepting things need to pushed back on your schedule* I'm working on that too.
I guess personally picking up the camera spontaneously feels best for me while having a talk segment (very casual version of coffee talk) about feelings or wisdom you gained! I feel your past few vlogs have been somewhat similar to that and I personally love it!
I completely love when you just show ur random pages of life! They are my favorite to watch 100000%
i love these styles of vlogs! I think life is too continuously changing to perfectly depict a certain theme each week.. i love when you film little parts of each day, and then sort of piece it together at the end! i have been LOVING your content for so long, and you are such an inspiration
I loooooove the weekly vlogs and then the nice little surprise of themed videos like outfits, hauls or grwm. I think that's the fun part of recording your life week by week- they are themed but only when you go back and look at them. Look at how much you've accomplished since January. The ebb and flow is tangible. Hindsight is 20/20 (literally this year lol).
Ok but the aesthetics are so calming that it helps keep my heart rate down and endurance up while on the treadmill 😂
The little gobble at the very end of the video is a whole mood and I appreciate it very much during these trying times
Hi, Kalyn! I honestly like both types of vlogs you do. Thank you for always being an escape hole for me. This year has been extremely tough. Between COVID-19, working from home and adjusting to that, and having a breakup with a long time, childhood friend. Your videos always help me distract myself from reality for a little bit. Thank you. x
I feel this so hard. It's been difficult for me to stay productive during quarantine. I try to appreciate the moments where I do get inspired to get things done and get lost in them for a little bit like you said because it doesn't always come around often. I think it's so important to just be kind and patient with yourself. We are living in unprecedented times. Love you Kalyn!
I love your vlogs so much, they’re very aesthetically pleasing yet authentic, and they always calm me down somehow ❤️
I love both type of vlogs: the more chill ones to enter day by day into your life but also the more themed one. i think you could do both! based on what inspires you at the moment you can absolutely do both if you feel like it. ❤️
Oh my God! Honestly, it's been a while since I updated myself with your videos. Still, every time that I'm watching your videos I feel so inspired, your vibe is so relatable: you show and say when you're feeling bad and when you're feeling good. It's so nice to see someone being so honest, creating real content that is still of high quality (because the editing is just on point to me). True inspiration ♥
I love both! I like the variety of having a structured talk video and the weekly life vlog. The weekly life ones are very relatable and make me feel better about being human (and a hormonal/emotional person at times lol).
I really like this intuitive weekly vlogs. I feel like you're a kind of friend being sincerely with me.💓
I love these day-to-day vlogs but I also love your more focused vlogs, so, no help at all cause I love everything you post! I've really appreciated getting to see someone else's experience through this year, I'm really isolated both were i live and just socially, so outside of my family its hard to tell myself that its okay to not be okay during all of this and just get through the day to day and feeling your way through. I'm also one of those people who just can't turn off or live around my emotions, and when i try to i get sick making watching all thats going on so hard. Its been so important to me to know I'm not alone in that and I always feel welcome, accepted and validated in my emotions when watching your videos. You have helped me so much in the last couple of weeks, a fact that my parents and therapist will attest to because I've talked about it so much. Thank you so much for sharing, it helps more than you know.
Thank you so much for just being here Kalyn. I’m kinda really lonely atm and watching your videos feels a little bit like hanging out with you which is very helpful for my mental health. And I’m also very much impressed by your ability to be super productive and sharing so many tips but also being vulnerable and showing us that it’s ok to feel down but also how to get out of a bad state of mind. Sending love💞
Honestly I prefer both of them, I love seeing you and feel amazing seeing that I can relate to someone, you have grown and are growing so much and the fact that you show that is really special to me. You inspire me just by being you and I hope I can reach that point as well.
Love this kinds of vlogs!! But honestly I pretty much love all your content so I hope you just post intuitively what you feel fits best week to week 💜 Really needed this after the week I've had, so as always thank you!
I love your vlogs and I love that there *is always a THEME / LESSON in each one. Not only do we spend the day with you but we also gain some positive lifestyle tips ourselves! 🤗👍*
Yes totally agree 😃
I prefer this day-to-day style but its nice to have the other style thrown in every now and then to mix it up! Your videos always cheer me up or inspire me to keep going. Thank you for sharing as much as you do!
100% prefer this old and classic type of vlog! It's so real and true to your lifestyle.
I love your videos and every kind Of videos you make because honestly the fact that you take your camera and record urself means a lot to us. Some of us might have a very shitty day and watching your video helps us to look outside the box and get our shit together. Thank you and love you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I like both. I like to planned and what I called the spontaneous. You do both beautifully well and they always brighten my day. Your videos about planning and prepping really help me organize my life. And your vlogs always give me a smile. Here during this quarantine and back a year ago when I was having brain surgery you couldn't really do much when you're in a hospital bed. So thank you so much so much wonderful content! 😊
I definitely prefer this style of vlog for you because it makes me feel less lonely :P it's like we're hanging out, except not. haha.
All of the Kalyn. I like the themed vlogs because they can get me in a vibe, but I also love the multiple days and giving yourself permission to be 💜
I love just seeing bits and pieces of everyday life. Please keep doing more like these. Obviously everyone one also loves a good theme and anything you might want to share but I think these are just so personal and I like chilling with you via video.
Your videos always put me in a calming and motivating mood! I appreciate and love everything that you make :) love the day-by-day stuff!!
I love both styles of vlogs, probably tend to prefer the structured ones just because I also really enjoy watching your old vlogs and is so much easier to find the kind of content I am craving when there is a clear theme and messaging behind the content x As per usual, love your stuff
I love these vlogs because I feel like I’m hanging out with a sister and I just feel less lonely especially with quarantine. The other vlogs are nice and soothing but these are by far my favorite. Thanks kalyn❤️
Kalyn honestly whatever makes YOUR heart happy will make OUR heart happy. Don’t exhaust yourself trying to figure out which kinds of videos we prefer. I mean yes, we are your audience on this platform but at the end of the day you gotta do what’s cool for you girl :)
I like a bit of both, whatever you are really into you can tell you put your heart and energy into ☺️ but definitely prefer these!
Honestly I love both styles of vlogs for different reasons! So make whatever you wanna make and I'll love it either way! 💕
I really enjoy this kind of weekly vlog... actually any video you put out to be honest. You always have a way of calming me down and making me feel like i can get my life together again. Especially on bad days. Todays one of those days I'm going to binge watch some of your videos and try to get some of my motivation back.
I find myself clicking on the theme vlogs more, but I love the switch up! 💕
Honestly, you're one of my biggest inspirations in life. I've gone through a really interesting training in work recently about soft skills and we were asked to think of someone who inspires us and who we appreciate. And you were the first person to come to mind cause 1. you're so similar to me and lots of ways (e.g. wanting to have everything in control, feeling deeply, loads of other things as well) 2. your content is insanely calming and speaks to me on a different level.
I've taken so many of your tips and words into my everyday life and every time you post, I know that I'll get a surge of positive energy right after.
Thank you for continuously being so open and honest and sharing so much of you.
This year has been super hard and such a roller coaster, but your videos have been kind of like an anchor to me. Thank you❤️
I personally like to see more of these type of vlogs the day by day. The set themes vlogs are still great and i am really enjoying the little effects and goofiness as well. It keeps you , “you”
I prefer a mix of both styles of vlogging! I love all your videos and appreciate the switch up between the two!
Absolutely love your weekly vlog Kalyn - love the flow of so many different things. I feel like they are truly like hanging out with you and just seeing a friend. So happy to hear they are your favourite to edit. Thanks for inspiring me to start my own this week - it's been an interesting process on figuring out what to capture, what is important and what is just word vomit. Any tips for keeping consistent with it?
Hey Kalyn, I love this kind of Videos! The b-roll gives it such a good vibe and it feels so much more relatable and authentic!!
Thank you for this video!! I so needed this today! Your purple nails are such a vibe!! Much love 💕
I really love both styles of videos. I really like that you do both, but honestly I think I'm just a fan of your style in general. I'm pretty sure whatever kind of video you make, I'll watch and like it.
I love any of your vlogs haha 💕💕 I just enjoy seeing how you handle life. The beginning of this video really hit home so thank you 💕
I love any kind of style video you make, but the bits and pieces throughout your week are great. You are an amazing woman and I learn so many things from you and sometimes it just nice to know - someone out there gets it too. xo Happy moving soon.
I love this! Would love to see a vlog dedicated to bullet journaling but I like this format!
I love all your videos Kalyn!! Always speaking the things i need to hear. I would love to see a video where you take a bunch of personality tests/talk about your personality results (enneagram, Myers Briggs, etc.) I know you’ve done a lot of astrology, but I think it would be fun to see where you fall on other scales!
I like this day by day weekly vlog style! I think the end nicely summed up the theme of your week too :)
day-by-day vlogging is my fav!
I really love this type of vlog and I really love the aesthetic of this video ❤ also really appreciate your authenticity 🥺
Kalyn all your videos are fantastic. I enjoy the 'pick up the camera and go' videos. But whatever your heart desires, no need to worry about what we want. As long as you still enjoy doing it, we all will continue to support you no matter what. 😊
Hello dear K. - Just to put my lil opinion out: I really enjoy the whole week vlog, when you think about it, a week goes by pretty quickly and we always tend to sorta restart during the weekend (at least I do), while looking forward to a goos productive week...thus these really are superb to watch and go along with you ✨
I like both equally well! One feels very artistic and the other feels very authentic and those are the two aspects of your channel that I love the most.
I love this type of vlog! Please make more and thank you for calming down my anxiety a bit
I just LOVE anything you put out, I watched all of your videos even the oldest ones in your dorm room and I am sooo OG so I don't care what you put out, I watch it and adore it ❤️
I love both Kalyn! The approach may be different but the thoughtfulness and quality are always present. As your followers, we would want to see you doing what you love and having the freedom to express yourself in any way you can. Virtual hugs from the Philippines ♥️
I watch your videos on repeat, they give me a sense of calm and also motivation to better myself in all ways 💓
your makeup look in this is so pretty!!!!
I like both of the styles of the vlogs! But, you should vlog the style you feel most comfortable! Much love, Whitney💗!
I really enjoy this vlog format because we get to see more of your week! It’s so inspirational, but also very relatable and helpful. ☺️
Hi Kalyn. 👋🏼 To answer your question, I like the vlogs where you just pick up your camera and film your day(s). No theme needed. Have a fabulous day!☀️ ps I love how you’re allowing yourself to feel your emotions and just let them be. ❤️
I really needed this!! I was the exact same way last week all over the place and emotional! Makes sense now with my period. This period was awful.... so was May's.... makes so much sense now!!
I love these vlogs!!! Ur editing is AlWAYS on point and your music choices are dope also!
Love the day-to-day vids
I love seeing your weekly vlogs. Like a little extra peak into your life.
So excited !! Defiantly need this video in my life 🙌🏼
The music in this episode is on POINT girl. Thanks for inspiring. 🌻
I very much enjoy when you pick up the camera and take us with you and especially the pov shots!!!
I love both! I love your energy and vulnerability....like you I have up and down days emotionally and both styles inspire me differently when I’m in my various “moods”
Teared up a little at the end of the video. I have totally been feeling the waves of being super productive and then needing to focus on my mental health. Sometimes I beat myself up in a way and watch these videos to force myself to feel bad about not being productive and to compare myself to others so I can feel the pressure. But to have you be so real and just talk to us in the end of the video about you experiencing the same things and trying to find a balance made me feel less guilty and more accepting of myself and emotions today. Now I’m gonna pour all of the rest of my feelings into my journal. Thank you 💓
I love both kinds of vlogs! They're both fun and interesting to watch in their own way :)
I love both styles! I’m always excited to watch your videos!
Yes to week vlogs 😃👍🏻💜
The cycle thing, I have it as you said.
This is the video that I need, to get back on track 🤗🍷🌸
I love the weekly vlogs, and seeing what you are up to each day ☺️💕
I prefer these kinds of vlogs where it's just little snippets of each day as you're going through it. But also if you feel like you want to talk about a specific topic (like the period talk we had in this vlog) I'm really down for that too!
It doesn't matter to me what format you use as long as you keep posting! 🧡🧡 Love your videos!
