- I turned 25 last week. I thought I'd share each lesson I learned (some more painful than others) and celebrate with you all. The first 1000 people to use the link will get a free trial of Skillshare Premium Membership: skl.sh/katherout02211
Oof. I did a lot of THINKING this past year... I truly feel like a radically different person than i was 12 months ago. I've been able to share bits of pieces of where my head's been at during my 24th year with you on my channel, but i felt compelled to really dig in here and put down in words - through video- all of the re-programming, re-processing, and unlearning i've had to do.
the footage i used for this video are treasured memories that i was never able to find the right use for on my channel.... until now. just felt right. some of them are B.C. (before covid), and some A.C. -- let the mask wearing be your guide as to which is which.

Me turning 25 in less than a month: * frantically taking notes *
Chill
Most important part is that your road is yours alone and that you can't get there until you get there.
@@MsSomeonenew Definitively, it was a joke :)
It is never late to take these notes
guess ur 25 now
1. All humans live in an interconnected ecosystem
2. Don't share advise unless asked
3. You're not endlessly available to everyone so set boundaries
4. How good you are at your job and how good you are are not the same
5. Be empathetic, don't say you relate completely
6. Do things alone for yourself without showing the world
7. Wear sunscreen
8. Don't tell people to just be happier
9. Invest in your health over all else
10. When you think of someone, talk to them
11. Try to make a friend group
12. Try weed, boba, and sushi younger
13. Have critical thinking skills
14. Continue having a student identity (intellectual curiosity) outside of school
15. Don't have a "front-of-the-class mentality"
16. Invest in nice bedding
17. Relationships can grow or shrink virtually
18. Your identity is not what you think
19. Rest is a requirement; not a reward
20. People project a lot so be considerate of that
21. Being emotionally available is a huge strength
22. Focus on what you could give instead of what you want
23. Like what you like because you like it
24. Form a political identity
25. Be radically transparent
Stating the facts of what they said :) Not my opinion
Thanks
Thanks!
i turned 25 i few month ago but my list is somewhat different:
1. Always do a proper paperwork when dealing with people if money is involved
2. Death comes even for the young, it's better to cherish the moment with the people you care for
3. Minimizing troubles is a key to happiness which comes from composure
4. Hedonic Treadmill is real, it's better to take pleasure in simple things but not overdo it
5. Investing even a minuscule part of your income is very important
26. Don't read RUclips comments, they all are copy paste
THANK YOUUU
i just turned 20 and it feels good going into my 20s with mindfulness
How did you develop mindfulness? Im struggling at the moment and I turn 20 this summer. I want things to change I just don’t know how :)
Damn turning 20 does feel a little... uncomfortable/pressure.. don't know why?🤷
@@JstJaybeingJay i go through this feeling as well i'm 20 so people in this age feel more responsible 💁
@@JstJaybeingJay for me I feel kind of lost in my life ,I have Soo much Fateful choices so I'm afraid to choice the wrong things and that's will effect my future life 😭🙂That's actually what I'm going through .they called it midlife crisis 😊
@Oumaima Fikri I guess it's "responsibility", for me it feels like I've wasted my life so far, accomplished nothing tried to do something failed at it. now just wishing for a miracle. Worse part I've big dreams, like really big...But right now things feel like..............well at a "lockdown"😁.
me being 18 and already confused with everything, this will help me to just chill out, breathe and slowly figure things out.
Same :/

I’m 20 years old, turning 21 this month, and I felt like I have learned so much since I was 18:) everyday is a new day to grow!
Me: chilling and trying to take things slowly.
College admissions and my unfinished research paper: wdym?
On my 20s I realized that adults are a joke...
Yup
on top of that the process of realization comes is from when you start reflecting on the circumstances of the events and actions that happened in your life
then you see what's wrong and right of it , so age is not necessarily primarily a condition. hopefully you got my point cus i'm non-native English speaker
@@rdsa1 You mean something like: That realization comes when you reflect on the circumstances and events of your life and see the wrong and right of it, regardless of age.
A fairly good message and you got most of the vocabulary right, even if the structure wasn't the greatest.
Adults aren't a joke. The popular concept of adulthood and childhood being completely separate and so terribly different is a joke. People who rely on their seniority as a claim of greater wisdom and intelligence are jokes.
You eventually realize that people are both better and worse than you give them credit for, young people can be both tremendously smart and clever and immature and naive and ancient people incredibly narrowminded while also having unique perspective you could never consider. Just be open to it all, don't concern yourself too much with age differences for friends and... i dunno.

Yeah, turning 25 this year,feeling like I'm stuck in my 17's because of I don't know what to do with my future. I'm lost, feeling weak, unmotivated because of unrealistic expectations. No jobs, no friends, worried a lot.
♥️Remember you're not alone. We'll get through this. Love you.
You’re not alone! Turning 25 soon and still feel like a lost loser not knowing what I want to be.
I turn 25 in a few months, you’re definitely not alone. I feel just as lost as I did at the beginning of college, maybe its just laziness or maybe I’m just not up for this kind of life, I move out soon so I am hoping that will help me shift my direction in life. I have a degree in computer science and ,honestly, I don’t have any motivation to pursue a “career” at the moment. Im told that Im wasting time but honestly time is all I have right now. 😅
I'm an adult who has zero passion and motivation for any job, despite I was told it's what you need if you want to have a successful life since I was a kid...growing up I didn't know what I wanted, then I realized I just want to have a normal happy family and be a mom, I wonder if that's weird
24 and lost too. Unmotivated to find job because I don't know what I want to do.
I'm 22 and working in a bakery but I'm searching for a different job cuz after over 3 years working there, I'm just tired of the job and customers because this was one of the jobs that I never wanted to do when I was younger. So now I'm searching but I don't feel like I'm getting really far and I just feel so unmotivated
ok so for your own bday you managed to create bingo, a slideshow, and this piece of art??
I'm the 69th like
please dont call it a slideshow... its much too beautiful for the term. its at least a video.
Hi there!
@@eduardochavacano I think they’re referring to something outside this video. They did say “and this piece of art”
Somehow I knew you’d be here
I love how I'm seeing this when only 13 💀see you in 12 years ig
Lmao xD you still have a childhood to live out, SMH. what are you doing here?? XD
live out your years with the mindset from this video :)
see you in 12 years!
Bruh same, lmao
(im younger than you by 1 year tho)
@@shubhangim3595 try to. Its not easy to mimic the wisdom that others share unless you go through the process yourself
I cried watching this, not out of sadness but out of joy to seeing you grow over these years of watching you. Thank you and love ya :)
me too :')
Wow..get a life
Same here...
I feel you I have been following her college videos since 2017 when I myself was about to travel and join uni in other country. Now I am in senior year :"")
I just celebrated my 23rd birthday, just graduated college, and I've never felt more afraid of my future and the uncertainty of it all. Videos like these are bringing me some comfort that I'm not alone.
I'm gonna pretend to be wise for a momment. This is one aspect of life that everyone feels, me and you, he and she. You can ask your parents and they would relate. You could ask your grandparents and they would relate. You could ask the 90 year old grandfather who's out walking in the park and he would relate.
Just pretend like it doesn't matter what your future will bring you and that will make you feel alot more at ease. Imagine instead feeling "wow, the whole world is infront of me and I don't know where I'll end up in this grand adventure! >:D"
Because really, what are you really afraid of ? Not being wealthy? not being famous? These things won't make life more fun for you in the slightest ;).
I've been to countries, poor countries, where the 40 year old guy standing at the side of the desolate country road selling exotic fruits for a living, was more happy than I've ever seen anyone else being happy in my entire life before. As a matter of fact when you talk to these people you get an understanding of their lives and how different everything can be for yourself aswell.
In my experience, it's impossible to really know what your purpouse in life is unless you havent tried different things before. That means, tried jobs that you otherwise would think "eh, boring" or "ew too low salary". Just ignore the ammount of money you will get, you can always quit. You can always get another one.
But experiencing how it is, is so much more valuable than imagining how it would be. Because if you have never been a fire fighter before, you can't know how it is to be one if you've never been one.
Once you have tried different things, your understanding of what you like and don't will grow until you have narrowed it down to your purpouse in life.
But if you never blindly try, you are never going to find your purpouse.
Same, I just graduated from university and am turning 23 years old this coming August. It's a really scary, stressful and anxious feeling to be and feel uncertain and lost. But, no matter what I know we'll find a way and strive through this. All the best man 🍀🍀
@@artistfromheart7 You tooo 💖💖😊
i graduated in college when i was 18 tho so its good lol
Same
Currently a junior trying to reckon with the fact that I'm about to be a senior. I feel like I've blinked and lost my entire junior year. Everything feels so unfinished. I'm burned out, stressed out, and truly, my mind hurts more than I can comprehend. Thanks for voicing all of this, and making sure we know we're not alone. Phew!
As a former college teacher, I wish I could have passed a law that strongly encouraged university students to take one semester off at some point if it was all getting to be too much pressure. Saw too many young people under too much pressure, not letting themselves take a break when mentally and emotionally and even physically they really needed it. If I were a parent, I'd be watching my adult student 'child' and letting him or her know that if things get overwhelming, there are much worse things than not graduating 'on time.'
I feel the same as you my friend, as a sophomore in high school, never thought my mind could hurt this much lol, but I’m with you wherever you are
Same I’m a sophomore about to be a junior and I can’t believe it
@@itzli_7930 me too
I’m a freshman, going to be a sophomore starring next semester and I completely agree with you. I feel like I lost an entire school year. And it went by to quick too.
I'm 40, and this is excellent.
Woah
the vibe of this video is just so aesthetically pleasing
it feels like a short film/documentary?
- honeypot films
25 was absolutely a turning point. It was significant and profound. When I turned 25 my whole world practically shifted. It was a transformation from a caterpillar to a butterfly. My health took a decline, I was diagnosed with a chronic auto-immune disease with uncontrollable flare ups. I began to cut out unhealthy behaviors and tendencies and replace them with self-love and positivity I never had before. I healed my mental health by working on me. Focusing on me. Prioritizing me. I eliminated the people in my life who would forever try to manipulate and emotionally abuse me; friends AND family. I concreted the things I would not do, and found things I love that I never expected. 25 was terrible but also beautiful. I've never felt more...me.
That sounds beautiful! I am turning 25 next month and I feel so empty. I have almost no friends left, no supportive family und the man I love does not want to be with me anymore. I have yet to start university so no career going on for me either. I am hoping so bad to finally get to my break through and get happy for the first time in forever.
@@Shirumoon It takes a lot of patience with yourself and love too. Just vibe with the things that you enjoy and that bring you genuine happiness and dont be afraid to try new things! If people arent in your life that it means they arent meant to be there and better people will come along. It's okay to be lost, it's okay to be unsure, that's just part of the experience.
I'm turning 25 in 2 days. My life had been a complete s*it show. It scares me so much that it seems that I'm going to be the same person for the rest of my life. However I hope things will be much better soon.
you always have the power to make progress on improving who you are. good luck to you!
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday , and best wishes in becoming the person you strive to be .
Happy birthday! Please understand that we will always develop & change so dont feel bad
Happy birthday brother
I'm turning 25 in November. Becoming more old feels like dying. We never expect to get old and in the same way we also never expect to die. I haven't accomplished much in my life actually. I don't even have a degree. I wish to start an IT degree next year. I hope i can still I do it. I always overthink stuff, doubt myself and quit stuff. This time I'm going to actively believe in myself, work on my mental health and take on a different strategy to achieving what I want. I'll try. Life is just hard.
I believe in you!
I believe in you as well. One step at a time.
I believe in you! I sometimes doubt myself but eh. I’m trying to be better everyday and learning more about myself and the world around me.
Hun I understand. I believe in you. You can do it.
I'm gonna be 25 this year as well lmaooooo
i’m 17 and i’m really soaking in all your wisdom :)))
me too!
Same!
Same here!

This is going to be a video I will come back to over and over. It's so soothing and gentle and all of the points you've mentioned are so truthful. I love the way you approach growth, self-care, and empathy. I just turned 24 two months ago and as silly as it is, I'm finally learning how to take a break. I'm re-learning how to love myself, love the people around me and learn to be kind to myself. I've watched your videos since your college days. It's so amazing to see how far you've come. Especially this year! Thank you for being one of my favorite youtubers. Happy late birthday :)
I agree with this comment completely 😊
so wonderful to hear the growth you’ve working through!!!
im not of a fan such videos. But Im loving her language, poetic, but really not cheesy and prententious. Okay, I’ll subscribe. I owe her for initially bashing her for not having arched eyebrowse. It just sounds so authentic.
omg, the "toxic positivity" one HIT. ya girl does not know how to not say "GOOD, HOW ARE YOU" when someone asks how i am. also love ur handwriting! you are a precious flower!!!
I turned 25 this year and I will say, as soon as I turned 25 I just felt different. I felt like it's time to do something and get out there. I've done nothing but be lazy for 25 years. Time to make up for lost time in the next 25 years.
Idk I think you approach it badly. "make up"? Was your whole life not worth it? A piss in the wind? Eqivilent to spitting down a bottomeless pit of nothingness?
No, listen here dude, you are just starting to like different things. Then just do different things. Before this point you did what you liked and that's it. Don't overcomplicate things just say "I do what I like" and that is it. People love overcomplicating things but one of my best lessons I learned is to boil everything down to the simplest aspect there is and then just *do* and whatever outcome becomes of that, will always be better than worrying and regretting or overcomplicating/overthinking.
:)

@@siegpasta yeah that's a good point. I do over think things way too much.
@@siegpasta I know your comment is a year old but reading this has made me feel better about my poor choices
The editing on this video is next level. I usually don't watch these "x things I learned in x years" videos, but I love your content, so I did, and I'm so glad. Totally resonate with the health care portion.
Wow, thank you for putting this video together! You really put my thoughts to words and definitely brought up values worth holding on to. Thank you!
This was lovely to watch and listen to. Thank you for sharing. I will be taking multiple things on your list with me!
absolutely adored this, it feels like ive watched a friend grow up and blossom, navigating through life and sharing these nuggets of wisdom you've gained which have helped me so much
this video recommendation really came at the perfect time. growing up is hard and confusing, so I really appreciated these tips and reminders
everything about this is so beautiful: the footage, your wording, your honesty... i feel very inspired :)
I've literally never been this early to a RUclips video before! My 21 year old self will be watching and learning :)
❤️❤️❤️
thank you for your depth, honesty, and love. thank you for being you!
This is such a beautiful video. I’m a fairly new subscriber, so I haven’t been around to watch you grow, but while I’ve thoroughly enjoyed your other videos, this resonated with me on another level. I teared up. It’s so truthful, profoundly important, and something I didn’t know I needed to hear. Against a backdrop of such amazing scenery and videography too.
This is a work of art!
need this video as a reminder. Such amazing advice I’ve been try to talk into myself only not knowing how to explain it. This is so forward. It gives me goosebumps and gives me a sense of peace and release after beating myself up mentally. Thank you.
Thank you so much, you don’t know how much I needed this. You touched a lot of people :)
I'm turning 25 this year and thisis litearlly what i've been learning over the past 2 years - like this stuff is SO GOOD to remember what I learnt omfg. It's honestly so true, empathy and connection with people is the only thing that I feel like is the ultimate cure for anxiety. Being with people you love.
This is so true. Crazy, how you have to learn things that sound so obvious when you say them out loud.
It took me so long to learn that it's ok not to be ok and that failing at something isn't equal to weakness.
Thank you so much for sharing this, and sharing it so well! I have so much to think about.
I've never come across such a deep, heartfelt video on youtube. Your thoughts are truly amazing. Thank you for reminding me of all these little truths
I'm currently 21 and WOW this was just so insightful. Loved the editing, calmness, and just overall sincerity you expressed in this piece. Thank you. 😊
So amazing! As a 23 year old who has been subscribed since 2015 I feel like your videos have always been very sisterly and this one was full of beautiful wisdom! Thank you for sharing!
This year was very transformative. I've had these same thoughts! and always when I have a realization like that its good to take notes. This is amazing. Beautiful video.
I bloody love this video. So well edited and has really made me pause and reflect on life. Your world view is so special. Katherout, you're a blessing ❤️
I think this is the best video you’ve ever posted. Thank you for sharing, from a fellow 25-year-old just trying to figure life out.
You are so wise for your age, it is truly impressive. I love you are so self-reflective and very responsible towards other people, the society, the community. This is truly something to be proud of you know. Well done
Just came across your channel and I've been binge-watching your vids. This one has had such an impact, I'm going through a rough time rn and this piece of art made it a little less tough. Thank u
Thank you for this. It's simple and you don't go on an on for every points, it's clear, concise and precise. Everything I needed. You do give REAL advices rather than only having two things to say and try to make them as long as possible so thank you for that! Thank you for the format, realyly, it's refreshing.
I'm 22, at a break point in my life and it gives me some relief. Once again, truly, thank you
As a current college senior, I loved this video, especially the part about student identity.
"I'm a finite resource with limits." - Something I REALLY wish I knew when I was in college and my early 20s. Awesome video, it is so pleasant to watch.
watching this at 21 and tbh its cleared some of my doubts and really challenged my own misconceptions about life and self-worth. thank you for this
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences! The video is stitched together beautifully and I think the insight is really valuable. Also love the soundtrack
I had to pause this video because everything you’ve gone over so far is so important but your number five is my favorite at the moment. I constantly try to understand what others are going through but there’s a point where you can’t understand and need to switch over to empathy. You can imagine how hard certain situations are but if you don’t live through them yourself you will truly never understand what it’s like, therefore empathy comes into play. I’m so happy I came across this video! And now I can press play again 😅
The thing I wish I had learned before turning 25 most is to divest from hyper consumerism. I've since learned this lesson, and have dramatically downsized my life and completely changed the way I shop, and as a result, I've had more time and money to devote to the things that matter most to me in life, I feel so much lighter owning much less, and I feel more satisfied with what I do have. But for real, I wasted an astronomical amount of money in my early twenties on material goods that I didn't need or even like that much, impulse buys are so addictive. Not everything we think we need to be happy will actually make us happy, and it's really does take questioning each purchase we make with a healthy dose of cynicism to truly find balance as a person living in this profit-hungry, cruel, materialistic world.
this is amazing, so beautiful. i didnt expect to gain so much insight from this, but here we are. thank you
I rarely comment on videos, but having just graduated from college I could not have found this video at a better time. All of this was EXACTLY what I needed to hear to process my existential worries. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
This really helped me feel more comfortable about my future, about how I don’t have to be all by myself and it doesn’t have to be stressful and a dark time in my life where I’m alone in a big city living on awful wages and struggling to find a partner and friends while leaving everyone I love behind. thank you.
girl... I feel like I should write this points down in my diary. You're so good at it.
Thank you so much! I needed to hear all these advice and most of them are already true to my life. I hope you find more beautiful lessons in life and share it with others! ❤
i will recommend this to so many people. this was the best advice video i've ever seen. thank you.
I love this! Thanks for sharing your thoughts & reflections and doing it so beautifully through video :)
What you said on independence really really REALLY spoke to me. The last year I’ve been reflecting on how my independent identity has really helped me through life but has also made me very sheltered with my feelings and emotions because I always relied on myself to help myself through hard times. It’s almost an excuse for me to not open up or share with others. Now in a relationship for the first time (at 25), I see how harmful my independent ideologies have been because I was ONLY thinking of myself, no one else. I really struggle to relay my ideas and thoughts and emotions to my partner because I’ve never had to do that before. I’m getting better but there’s still a huge baggage there for me to ASK for help and not expect myself to do everything, especially in a partnership.
Just a random thought! It was comforting to hear someone else my age reflect on their independence as I’ve been :)
this hit home, thank you for sharing!
Katherine, this was a BEAUTIFUL video. Thank you for sharing.
im 19 and im so thankful for the message. i dont have a mom to tell me things like this. thank you! i will come back and rewatch this!!🤍
This hit me ❤️ So proud of you finding yourself and becoming someone you love, and thank you always for being such an inspiration ❤️
I like the mindful vibes. I'm at the end of my undergraduate experience, and I'm finding it so hard to do my work. I feel like my motivation is completely absent. I want to know how I can enjoy learning again.
she: im 25 and i suck
also she: makes a very artistical poetic video
im 24 turning 25 in qugust btw
This is like a comfort video I can always come back to. Thanks sm for making this!
25 in few months, so damn scaringly relatable. Thank you so much, I feel better that I am not alone feeling similar things you mentioned
#13 makes me feel validated for being the kid that argued with teachers in class about the things that were being taught and not just accepting what they were telling us but really trying to understand it from multiple angles. and always asking questions about why things are the way they are (really why) and how things are made or get done
#23 Glad that you are able to be comfortable in what you like, despite what others think about it. That is an awesome thing to have. never stop working on that.
❤️❤️❤️ Absolutely love this video, the transparency, and the openness. Also, HASAN PIKER! YESSS
Great video with many great(!) thoughts - I almost wanted to leave this video after the first couple of seconds/minutes, because I thought that this would be another shallow life advice video, but I'm very glad I stayed! I go through many of the same processes and I realized that the early twenties I'm in right now are probably one of the most important years of my life, because I am able to shape what type of person I'm gonna be in the future, possibly more than I will ever be able to do it again.
what a great video. thank you for reminding us that we all need to take a step back sometimes and focus on ourselves and find what is truly important to us. loved this
me watching this at 28 knowing full well i'm about to learn something 🤡
the wrinkly brain line i included was all u so clearly this is a symbiotic learning RELATIONSHIP!
Me at 29 🙄
lol same
22 watching this. and damn i needed to hear this. I’ve been so in my head about my future lately and this made me excited to keep living, which is something i haven’t felt in a whiiiile. Thank you for this.
im also 22 same
I was so sad ,crying but ur video made me feel at ease ,thank u :")
This was an incredible video! Thank you so much for these wise words and lessons. happy birthday!
I learned a lot from this! Esp the part abt not giving advice unless solicited. I did that a few days ago and I misunderstood the situation and what the person was going through. Lesson learned.
This year I’ll be 25 years old and I have learned something from this video. Thank you.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us, every single tipp is appreciated 🙏🏼
Happy Birthday, Kat!!!! 25 is a huge milestone
i’m 13 and this has given me the peace of mind i haven’t had in awhile. i’m glad you made this video. i’ve taken everything you’ve said into consideration and this is all so helpful honestly. i am so happy i now have a different view on things.
Wow.... I wish I were 13 again. Good luck in life
This was incredibly made, you have grown so much in the last year! Keep doing what you’re doing!
thank you 🥺
Great input!! I love your video and the format, also loving those beautiful shots. Thank you for sharing, cheers from bcn
this is really great. you articulate some thoughts I've been having really well. thanks Kath :')
kind of interesting how I just turn 25 and everything is coming clear to me now, I am still lost but I have found parts of myself. Keep your heads up everyone better days are to come.
This is absolutely amazing, Kat! So much growth in you, and it's beautiful to see. Do you ever look on all this progress and wonder how much of your beliefs/gained knowledge will still hold true in 5/10 years? Curious on what your opinion is about that.
Thank you so much, this is so helpful and I’m going to share it with so many of my friends
I love this!! Thank u so much!!
this is so beautifully poetic on so many levels
Girl the EDITING. Thank you so much for letting us into this part of your life and sharing this with us. You are so incredibly well-spoken and full of wisdom. I hope you know your content has such a positive impact on people. You should take great pride in knowing you are putting good into the world and helping people. I may be 23, but you feel like the big sister I never had. Thank you. A million times, thank you.
🥲🥲🥲
These tips hit hard.Thankyou so much!!
I'm late to this video, but I'm so happy I found it. As someone who is turning 26 in....oh goodness only four months....wow.....I totally relate when I say that 25 is the time where I've finally felt like I'm coming into who I am truly meant to be - even if who that is is completely different than what I'd expected for myself growing up/until now. Thank you for being so transparent and sharing your journey with the public, with us. Its refreshing
Well, I'm 25 in three days. I've never seen such a..... deeply insightful, introspective, and self-aware video from a young person.
I identify so much with a lot of what you said. The independence one, for sure, is a hard one for me as I think it's the default process for me to exist without feeling like I need others. The 'problem-solving' prompt response when someone opens up about a problem.... I, too used to be that way, in a way because I thought that was what was expected from me and I didn't want to disappoint the other person and seem like I can't help. I learned from my own experience and observing that people need support and empathy first and foremost. Also, realizing we're all equal individuals, like truly deeply seeing how nobody is better than anybody at the end of the day, was a big one for me in my early 20's. It actually made connecting with people a bit easier. Of course, everything, is a lifelong process of reaffirming and learning.
The first one about independence is really important. I feel like I'm inadequate for having to rely on others sometimes
needed this video, thank you so much
Love it! Absolutely Loved it! Thank you!!!!
im turning 25 in may and what I have realized that I am way too hard on myself. I keep putting pressure on myself to be at a certain place in my life and it's hard not to compare myself to everyone around me. I have definitely learned many hard lessons along the way and it's really nice to hear your perspective and to know that I'm not alone, if that makes sense. I love this style of video and thank you so much for sharing!!
I suggest you get a hold of a copy of your birth certificate and hand and foot prints and have them enlarged and framed. Place them in a conspicuous area of your home. Every time your tempted to compare yourself to someone else-- take a moment to meditate on the uniqueness of you for a few minutes and realize that no one will ever be able to take or remember your journey for you and that you are miracle of creation.
@@raularmas317 wow, thank you for suggesting that!!! This really helped put things into perspective
Through the reflection of your thoughts I felt understood. It’s a foreign feeling.
I always come back to this video. I love all the points. If you turned 30 Kath, please do another one of your video journal.
I’m about to turn 27, and I still identify so hard with this vid.
You have mature mind and articulated yourself very well!
One question for you -How does one optimize hustle and fun to have a thriving life.
i'm only 5 minutes in, but goddamn, this is so beautiful. i've not seen anything else by you but right from the get-go, all i see in this video is a relentless emphasis on compassion. all the things discussed so far. this seems like a channel where you share your life and experiences with people, but just the title initially made me wary- self help and i share a toxic relationship- but the moment your story began with empathy rather than individualism, i knew i was in the company of something radically refreshing. thanks for making this. i'll get on with the rest of the video now.
idk y this popped on my home page but im grateful it did, your journey is beautiful and valid with all the ups and downs, idk if im still going thru the same journey or 've finished it, but what i knw is there's still alot to learn and its okay, its never too late and its one thing i have to always keep in mind.
thank you, that was fr beautiful.
i admire u so so so much.
