Whitney: “I don’t know if y’all want to see my footage from February”
Me: *would literally watch Whitney read an instruction manual*
Amen sister 😂❤️
Same😂
Literally same. Love her voice and the words that she makes with it haha
Yes we love Whit!! ❤️❤️
literally!!!!
22 minutes of Whitney? It’s a beautiful day to be alive 🥹🙌🏼🫶🏼
❤❤
I am so proud of you for standing your ground on the Alive App development. Alive has changed my life and my attitude towards health and wellness. And I think that guy knew that would be the case and was upset he wasn't going to get a cut. You are so amazing, so strong, so awesome. You are inspiring!!! You are a boss!!!
That guy was really arrogant saying that.
Truly the best app I've used. I recommend it to all my babes
@@CG-su4lg yeah and clearly she wouldn’t want to work with him if he’s going to act like that so it was for the best
Hey Whitney I doubt you’ll ever see this but I actually signed up for therapy yesterday after thinking about it for almost 5 years. Thanks for being so open and honest. you’re a gem and I’m encouraged by your progress and the joy you’ve had lately since prioritizing taking care of yourself. I truly love you and everything you stand for. I hope to have even a fraction of the impact on others that you’ve had on me. ❤️
I hope your journey to fight for peace and joy in your life goes smoothly. I’ve been in therapy and have been taking meds for over a year now. Be proud of beginning to work on yourself for yourself❤😊
@@jennacorwin3032 thank you so much! Great job I hope everything continues to go well for you ☺️
❣️❣️❣️
People are so judgy about weddings (I found that out on TikTok) especially when you have a large following. Your wedding is going to be GORGEOUS because its what YOU loved. I'll never understand why people can't have different tastes 💕 Can't wait for all the wedding things to come!!!
You are amazing Whitney ❤️
I don’t know what’s more impressive. Your determination, grace, and kindness. OR THE FACT THAT YOU FINISHED AN ENTIRE BOTTLE OF RARE BEAUTY BLUSH!!!!! 😂 that’s the most pigmented blush ever. Hahaha xo
WAIT HEAR ME OUT!!!! The passion and joy it brings you just talking about alive…I kinda want a what I do in a work day vlog thingy…?? I think it would be soooo cool to see the ins and outs of what it’s like being a business owner! (Also could be the nerd supply chain major in me wanting this…but still!😂) I just love seeing you light up talking about it- the good, bad & ugly.
We didn’t do a first look and I’m SO GLAD! I got to see my husbands face and reaction as I was coming down the isle and it was priceless. We were able to do a much more intimate/private exchange of vows afterwards during our pictures and I loved that. So we had more general vows for show during the ceremony, and then the ones only for each other later. 🥰
I was SO torn too, I really wanted to have that moment of seeing him the first time walking down the aisle. But, ultimately we decided to do a first look and honestly it was amazing. Not only were we able to get photos done before the ceremony but it was so good to just have a moment together alone to talk and just be together before the ceremony because we were both so nervous. He’s my person so no one was able to comfort me more than him. I definitely recommend a first look, It was so magical and I got to see his reaction alone and it made it more special because it was just between him and I and he felt comfortable and gave me a genuine reaction.
Omg Whitney!! I’m soooooo happy you started lexapro!! I have always always always dealt with generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder and depression and I started on lexapro at 2.5mg and now I’m up to 10mg and it has truly changed my life! I’m the type of girl who would do anything treat it naturally including getting a whole bachelors degree in holistic health to learn EVERYTHING I could but at the end of the day, nothing worked except medication and now I’m a full advocate of medication and mental health. I’m so happy for you ❤️
I would love to see the footage from February. I have been dealing with a lot of bad anxiety and truly you sharing your mental health journey has helped me not to feel alone. I love you so much Whit!
You are not alone!!! You are NEVER alone!!! Sending virtual hugs and soothing cuddles your way!! 🤗🤗 There are rough days. Just remember that this does NOT last always and you will get through it. Repeat that to yourself during an episode. You are fine, this will pass, and good days are on the horizon! When those good days come, ENJOY AND APPRECIATE THEM! That way, the next time an episode is upon you, the thought of good days relaxes you even more.
@@blerdofpeace5329 This means so much to me. Thank you so so much for this! I really needed this. I wish you the best and sending love your way.
@@amberlawson4043 🥰🥰🥰
Full time photographer’s take on a FIRST LOOK: my very favorite thing is when couples do a first look and read their personal vows to each other at that time. It is literally the ONLY time all day that the two of you will have alone together. It allows you to be fully yourselves in that moment without the fear of eyes watching you. I’ve never once had a couple regret doing it 🤍🤍
Videographer here, and I could not agree more! 🤍
This is your wedding foundation!😍 I also loved hearing more about your brand and the tough decisions you made to follow your gut, super inspiring and I'm so happy to hear you're doing what you need for your mental health.
Whit I would LOVE for you to upload the footage from February. I’m coming on 3 years living with Depression. I think sharing our stories just further makes us feel like we aren’t alone. Even a drop of hope goes along way. Love you!!!!! ❤️
Okay… i am not married, so my input on first look/no first look is strictly from a maid of honor perspective, but my sister made such a good point about why she chose to do a first look: I think it depends on the venue/length of aisle (and also how good your eyesight is?? LOL) But she wanted to make sure she could see her husband seeing her (lol) when he saw her for the first time… So I would be pro first look
OHH YEAH THERES NOTHING I LOVE MORE THAN A WHITNEY SIMMONS GRWM 😍😍😍😍😍 HIII
When Whitney Simmons talks about you in the opening of her new tube vid! ❤ you guys need to do a vid together, get some professional training tips! You did just say you wanted to get fit, stars are aligning lol
You're both bloody gorgeous! 🥰
My two favorite RUclipsrs talking about each other feels like a Disney Channel crossover episode 😍
I literally gasped when she said your name. This just made my day
When my two worlds collide 😭
I say yes for the first look. The wedding is about you and Stefan, not the audience 😘❤️
It also allows you to spend the entire day with your soon to be spouse! This is especially true if your ceremony is at 4 or 5pm :)
When my husband and I got married we did a first touch where we could say our vows to each other but still wait for him to see me until I walked down the aisle! I really loved doing this bc it took a lot of pressure off of us and we got to have our own moment together! Good luck with all of your wedding planning! It will be a beautiful day!
My sweet Whit ♥️ at the beginning of the pandemic I went through an eating disorder, which had severe consequences in my mental health. Anxiety and depression have played a huge role in my life and you encouraged me to get help. I’ve been here, as a follower for almost 6 years, I’ve seen you evolve and, unfortunately, deal with grief. Thank you for being so honest and transparent; for taking your time away from social media because nowadays it appears we need to be always present and pretending. I love you so much. Watching your videos is always such a pleasant moment.
I legit teared up hearing you talk about what your app stands for. We need more genuine people like you who care about the well-being of others ❤️
Yes queen i missed you!! Honestly brings tears of joy to my eyes hearing about your journey and how much better you have been doing. You're so raw and open and i know I'm not alone saying that we all appreciate your openness. You are amazing and deserve the best always. Love you Whit
Yes Ma’am! Just what I needed! Love you sis 💕
Yay! So excited to watch. Having a rough couple days and this is exactly what I needed🤍
You’re a beautiful person inside and out! ♥️ I’m so happy to hear that you’re doing better and I pray that you continue to have success and happiness on this journey.
Clicked here so fast girl! Missed you tons, upload them video your bravery through the dark times is so inspiring to me & im sure so many others 😭 ilysm
I love when you open up about mental health, makes me feel less alone and that everyone has personal struggles. Keep doing you girl ♥️
Thank you for being such an honest and kind person. You're so genuine, and so beautiful inside and out! I'm so glad to hear you're doing better than before. I felt the "living with depression" statement, and appreciate hearing those of us with depression are not alone and can find ways to live with it, too.
Started crying when you started talking about depression because GIRL I FEEL YOU!🤍 thank you so much for opening up, makes me feel like I am not alone living like this and fighting every single day🫶🏻✨
I would have watched an hour of this!! I’m so happy you are doing better and feel so much more comfortable talking about your struggles with depression and continued awareness around mental health.
I’m just happy to be here 🥹 and I would absolutely watch your february video. I think you bring so much light into a topic that is scary, unknown, and not talked about enough.
Whitney, I'm so so happy you started posting on RUclips again. I love you with my whole heart. ❤️❤️❤️
I literally prayed for you this morning and couldn’t get you off my mind! So happy to see this video. I’m sorry you’re hurting, Whit - take care of you, always💛 i love you so much!!!
Oh my gosh we would absolutely love to see this and be here for you, support you, and learn more about your journey!! Take your time and post it when you are comfortable but we are here for you!!!! 💕
Ahhhhhh! Our bff is back!! I love hearing about your stress-free wedding planning, I’m also planning my wedding this year so I feel you girl. I love that you have been prioritizing yourself, and not letting others’ opinions influence your decisions. Love you so much!!! So happy for you 🥰💙
Whitney! You put a smile on my face during a very hard, very sad day. Keep doing what you’re doing. Keep fighting, advocating for mental health awareness, and being strong and brave. We’d love to see your past footage, too!
You talking about mental health is so encouraging, thank you for sharing with us. If you feel comfortable, we would love to see your mental health video. I am sure it would help alot of us feel that we are not alone.
So proud of you for all you do, stand for, and represent! 💙
love how genuine u are. long time fan here, much love
We did a first look, and the picture of him seeing me for the first time is one of my favorite photos from the whole wedding day ❤️ It was so special to have that moment to ourselves.
You’re such a beautiful person inside and out. I’m so proud that you continue to push yourself on the daily while combating your own personal struggles with anxiety & depression. I love you mamas. Stay strong ❤️
I’m so proud of you Whitney. It makes me so happy to know that you are doing a lot better ❤️
Thank you for still reaching out to your RUclips community like me ❤️ social media gives me anxiety so I don’t have Instagram, etc. this is where I keep up with you! And thank you for being vulnerable with us - I know I would be respectful to you opening up about your depression journey - as I would hope everyone else would because that is so vulnerable! Thank you for everything ❤
Whitney! You are so beautiful and it brought tears to my eyes hearing you share part of your story. Your story is yours to share 💓 even if you thought your story could help one person.. it’s worth it! I’m here for all the content and more! Love ya! Bratataaa 🤘🏽
❤️❤️ thank you for sharing, i am so proud of you and the way you are taking control of your story! You are inspiring to so many!
Missed you! Thank you for being so honest about your mental health! It helps us who struggle speaking about our own 🧡
Whitney, you're GLOWING with JOY whenever you speak about Alive. I aspire to find something, as you have found Alive, and be able to pour my all into it and find joy despite the challenges it may bring ✨✨✨✨
Watching now! I love you so much and I'm so proud of you always 🥺
Your transparency is always amazing!
WHITNEYY!! We all love you so deeply and seeing you happy and open puts a smile on my face. Seeing your videos, instagram posts, and reels really is inspiring! You are such an amazing influence on all women and men and you genuinely are the best! We are always here for you and I will continue supporting the queen🤍🤍
WHITNEY! You truly deserve the best, I am sorry to hear that you have been going through a tough time but please know that you have helped me tremendously with my ED. Thank you for being you and for always being so honest. Love always from Paris ❤️
My husband and I did a first look, and it was actually the most special moment of our wedding! I was hesitant about it, maybe a little reluctant, but I was so glad we did it. The footage from it is so ❤️ to look back on and watch! All the best, whatever you two decide to do! 🤍
I’m coming back when I have time to give this video the time it deserves 🙌🏼 I can’t wait to watch!
I love seeing your passion for Alive. It’s inspiring and moving to listen to you talk about it! Truly so proud of you and so happy to hear you’re doing better lately 💓
My husband and I decided to do a “first look” and I’m so glad we did. It was intimate and it was so nice to just have that special moment to enjoy by ourselves with no one around ❤️ highly recommend!
I’m on Lexapro, too! Congrats on making that step for your health and happiness. There’s such a stigma around medication but it’s just a tool in our collective toolbox ❤️
I’m so happy your doing better. And I hope it continues to just go up for you!!! It’s a beautiful day to be alive!!!!
Thank you for always being so open Whitney! Love your GRWM videos 🤍
I’m so proud of you for setting boundaries for yourself, your health and your wedding. 🥰🖤
We’re regardless of whether you post before or after your wedding, or once a week and once a year. Do whatever you need. Lots of love xx
I was a bridesmaid in a wedding this past fall and the bride and groom read a short version of their vows during the ceremony and then did a private vow reading to one another during their photos right after the ceremony -- it was really special to a least hear a tiny bit of thier vows but also to know that they were able to do what made them the most comfy which is express their feelings in private
I would love to see the video from February! You are so motivating! So glad you are feeling better day by day❤️
I'm glad your keeping your wedding small and private and I always love seeing a new video pop up from you 💕💖
we love you whit! There's never enough mental health conversations - would love to see the February footage if you feel comfortable sharing with us!
Nothing brings me more joy than a GRWM with Whit! I just love you!!! You have helped me feel less alone in my mental health journey. I am so grateful 🤍
You're such a beautiful soul Whitney 💕 thank you for being open about mental health it's so important. I wish you all the happiness in the world 😊
So proud of you, and so happy to hear how well you’re doing!
We did a first look and I’m so glad we did. It was so special being just us two and enjoying time. We were able to feel the emotions we felt without worrying about a hundred or so onlookers watching our faces. It felt so special just doing it together prior. We also then knocked out a bunch of photos before the wedding ceremony and had WAY more time to chill with our guests during cocktail hour!
Honestly, I mean this with all of my heart - every time I watch your videoes, I am left with a better mood. And it doesn’t matter what the “topic” is - YOU just BRIGHTEN my days💫
I just can’t put into words how amazing you are. You are so kind and genuine. You are a true friend to so many of us. We are lucky to be apart of your life. Thank you for still being vulnerable and putting yourself out there for us knowing you will likely get unkind words. You are the best. ILYSM ❤️
thank you for this video whit♥️ i have been struggling a lot lately with my mental health & this helped me so much. proud of you ✨
I came back to your channel today after hitting a low and spending more than a year consumed by my depression. I’ve finally decided it’s worth it to put effort into myself again, starting with nourishing my body better and getting back in the gym ❤ I usually scoff at motivational “you are not alone” talk but your words in this video really connected with me. Thank you for your transparency.
As long as you’re comfortable uploading it, I think we’d love to see that video and it’d help so many people ❤️
SO glad to hear you’re doing better!!!! My favorite RUclipsr ever & I’m here to stay and ALWAYS give love & support!!! Keep doin YOU whit! We 🤍 you!!!
LOVE how open you are, LOVE the shade lol, and YES we would love to see the footage you have going further into depth on your mental health struggles. But only share what YOU feel comfortable sharing. Thank you for telling your story. Love you always ❤️🥰🙏🏼
As someone who also battles mental health issues daily, I'd love to see that video but only if you're 100% comfortable sharing it. You're so inspiring💗
My husband and I did a first look before the ceremony. I loved doing it that way. I felt more present since I was nervous during the ceremony
The line I’ve missed the most “when in doubt, dab it out” 😂😂🥰 …you’re going to have an amazing wedding girl, forget about everyone and everything else and enjoy your day with your man and family 🙏🏼🍾🎉
Whit love you! Share when you feel comfortable, I’d love to hear more of you story. You’re a ray of sunshine. It’s a beautiful day to be alive BABY!!
100% your wedding foundation 😍 WOW! You’re glowing, GLOWING! Husband and I did a first look it was the first time he saw my dress and also our 7.5 week old son in his christening gown (joint wedding and christening) Seeing him alone first was so intimate and I’m glad it was just us and our newborn son, it was also a HUGE confidence boost before walking down the isle even though it was a tiny amount of guests, I suppose I was still adjusting to my body after all I was only 7 weeks postpartum xx
Thank you for being so real. You have helped me so much over the years with a healthy relationship with food, fitness and mental health. I look up to you so much you have the most beautiful soul. Thank you for existing and sharing your light with the world, you are so loved
So proud of you and so happy for you, Whitney. You are such a beautiful, strong human. Thank you for always being so open with us and sharing your journey! ❤️
Some things in life you have to accept because you have no control over it. Other things you can change because you have the control. You just have to figure out what's worth fighting for.
Thank you for speaking so openly about your decision to start medication! I felt the exact same way; wanting to try everything else possible before taking meds. My therapist once told me “there’s no prize for enduring the most suffering”. So happy for you
Hearing you talk about Alive and seeing how passionate you are is one of the many reasons we why I love Alive. 💗💗💗
I love the honesty and encouragement about getting help for mental health. There's no need to suffer alone when there are so many people out there that want to help.
One of my longest time friends recently lost her battle with depression and anxiety,she left behind a husband and two young minis,there is not enough people who share there mental health Journey,it’s so real for so many people and so many people feel alone in it,always share your story if you feel safe doing so,it could help so many x
sending love 🙏
So glad to seeing you doing well Whit! It has been a pleasure watching you show up everyday for yourself and being honest ❤️
Whitney your an amazing human and I just love you so much! You opening up about your mental health has helped me more than you can ever know. 🤍🤍🤍 Always sending you love.
I love Alive- it keeps me focused and I don’t feel judged if I f*ck up the movements or go slowly. I’m grateful for it every day, thank you for making it!!
Upload the footage, we’re not over it & you never know how much it could help someone in the same situation. You are amazing, we love you!!! 💜💜💜
"then what would we do during the ceremony?" THE ACCURACY! This question has been plaguing me the entire time planning my wedding
So proud of you and so so sooo happy you're feeling better! Happy wedding planning!
i missed your videos and seeing your face on my yt page soooo much! you’re so well spoken when it comes to the questions surrounding mental health and i love that you’re so open with how you’re feeling and you give the besttttt advice to anyone watching❤️
I wasn’t against a first look at my wedding, but my fiancé at the time said that he preferred waiting until the ceremony to be surprised! Whatever you choose will be perfect!!
Highly recommend a first look!! We did one and it was so special to have that moment just the two of us. And I know people worry about it taking away from the special moment of walking down the aisle but honestly me and my husband both still cried at that even though we’d already seen each other! Plus…the first look pics are some of my faves that we took!!
I love seeing you on RUclips! I’m so glad you are learning boundaries for yourself when it comes to your mental health. Can’t wait to see wedding stuff! You guys will be stunning 🤩!
we love a lexapro queen!!💅💜 it’s done wonders for me as well:) i appreciate you being so open and vulnerable about mental health, it’s always so validating to hear a creator you watch deals with similar issues as you💜
I was waiting for your OG “boys” ending after a GRWM 🤩🤩🤩 you are breathtaking! Such a beautiful person inside and out! Love your videos 😍❤️🤩
i just wanna say thank you for being so open about your mental health it takes a strong and brave person to do so.
whitney!! you are incredible. thank you for your honesty and being so relatable!!
It hurts my feelings knowing negative ppl affect you so much. I wish I could throat stomp all of the ppl who go out of their way to be hurtful or judgmental. You are my favorite content creator. You are genuine and you have millions of followers but ALWAYS go out of your way to respond to dms and comments. I know other creators w 1/10th of your following who ignore everyone. You truly are a great person.
Truly ❤️
I genuinely loved this video and seeing you back on socials again and we are all so proud of how far you've come and for being so open about what you've been going through. I will always look up to you because you encourage other people to be their best selves while also knowing that you need to take care of yourself in the process. I will forever support you xx
