Tina, I don't think I have the words to tell you how much I appreciate you sharing this with us. Your vulnerability in this video made me feel like I've known you for years. When you talked about "I'm an artist, and I can't make money off of my art..." and then later how it feels to be in your twenties, I thought YES I'm not the only one. I felt a piece of me in each of your experiences. Your words at the end "everything is part of your story", ahhh thank you thank you so much. Your spirit is such a bright and beautiful light in this world. I haven't been journaling that much lately (in the form of just writing thoughts and words) and you have inspired me to get back into it, so I can look back years from now and see all the things that make up the story of who I am. Writing is almost a form of mediation that I've been itching to start again, so I can't thank you enough for inspiring me to do that. I know this is kind of all over the place, I just had to let you know my thoughts after watching this video! Finding your channel was such a blessing in my life! Lots of love xx
Jordan, I know that I am late to your comment and we have since communicated in between, but I want you to know how grateful I am for your words and that I am right along with you. When I was a little girl, I always thought my twenties were going to be the time of my life when everything would be exciting and fun (ie sex and the city and every other movie/tv show ever lol)...and there are moments when this is the case, but it is also so freaking hard. I had no idea how lost I would feel as an artist/creator nor did I understand the societal pressures of relationships/marriage etc. Writing/creating is the one thing that has seemed to ground me in all of this craziness. I really feel that your channel provides me with this same feeling of 'exhale' and meditation that I crave so badly in this life. Thank you, thank you lovely
Hi Tina,
I know you don't make videos anymore so you probably won't see this, but I just wanted to say thank you for everything you and your channel have done for me over the last year. I discovered you just after the UK had it's first lockdown back in March last year, and with the stress and uncertainty of everything, I really needed some kind of outlet for my feelings to stop me from pouring them out onto anyone else who was likely going through the same thing. Journaling became a way for me to express myself in ways I never imagined I'd be able to - I'd always seen it as something little kids did to write about their crushes and all the care-free feelings that come with childhood, and it had never really crossed my mind that if I looked past that, I'd find a way of exploring and getting to know myself, with all the rawness and realness that could never come with just thinking about things on the surface.
It's shown me how to dig deep and come to understand myself on a whole other level, and the same with other people too - unpicking all my thoughts, feelings and actions and learning where they stem from has really opened my eyes to why I do certain things or act in certain ways, and being able to keep that understanding at the forefront of my mind has helped me to interpret the way others act towards me in a more positive light - essentially, it's made me take things less to heart as I now realise that the majority of the time, it's not me that's the problem, but something going on in their life under the surface.
Aside from all of that, your channel just has such a calming aura that never fails to relax me, and there's something so beautifully human about the way you share your journals with the world with next to no filter. Your channel's also acted as a place to escape the toxic positivity of social media nowadays, and seeing your journey and how you've grown throughout the years has taught me that it's okay to not be able to love yourself straight away - it's a process, and isn't something that's just gonna happen overnight. Similarly, you've taught me that while of course it's nice to not judge yourself, what you think and what you write, it's okay to not quite be there yet but still be working towards the end goal. All in all, I honestly can't praise you enough and can only wish that your videos continue to reach more and more people as I think there's truly something for every single person in this world to learn from you. I'm cringing as I say this, but it's the truth - thank you so much for changing my life.
One of the things you said in your journals that you wanted to do was to make a difference and help make people's lives better. Congratulations, my friend, mission accomplished. If you ever doubt how important you are to the world, just go back thru and read the comments for this video. You are cherished and please never forget that.💜
Oh my gosh Julie, you are so kind. I'm honestly blown away at the positive support from this video. After uploading, I felt like hiding under a rock for a few days, but I'm SO glad that I trusted my gut to share it with you all. Thank you, thank you lovely
I can feel the pain in this writing so much so that there are tears in my eyes. I struggle with being truly open and vulnerable and use my writing to make it into fiction. If I can do the slightest of what you have done, I will be making huge steps. I admire you so much for being so open talking about this. I can hear it's painful to go back over but think of all the strength you have gained from this. You are amazing.
Thank you Liam
I admire the courage you have to share this with the world! I could barely show a page of my journal to my dog. Keep doing what your doing!!
Thank you, Annette
Thank you for sharing this- It reminds me of my journaling and I love how the handwriting changes with your emotions. Thank you for making me feel less alone.
YES! That is sooo true! Mine changes dramatically depending on my mood lol
Hi lovelies! I hope that you enjoy this video of total vulnerability (eeek!) I'm currently super behind on replying to comments, but I PROMISE that I will respond to all of you soon!
thank you for being so true and vulnerable with us! i just went through a very similar feeling last year and it really helps me to see others have felt the same. I also want to thank you for recommending Vagabroad Journals in your last video, I actually found a journal that I really loved and got it :)
And a 30 minute flip through? Yes please!! i hope everyone has a peaceful weekend
Ahhh thank you lovely
I have been creating lots of journals, all thanks to you!!!!!
Since I started watching you, I got back into meditation (why would one stop doing that???) and started journaling my life. I'm using all the chacra journaling prompts you recomended and let me just tell you... my spirit is lighter by the minute, my mind is healthier by the minute. I really needed that. I struggle with OCD and depression. And writing about my feelings, throwing up all the gunk and realising that when a page doesn't match the other, when my pen runs out of ink and I have to change it and the journal will be different... is actually kind of beautiful. Our lives aren't uniform and that is incredibly beautiful. Just wanted to tell you that what you do matters.
Oh my gosh, your comment has literally left me speechless. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I am so glad that my work is so helpful to you! This is beyond all that I ever hoped for in terms of youtube/my channel
hi! i’m 13 and i have been writing journals since i was seven! 💗 im currently making 2 diaries
1. for writing
2. for pictures and sticking in things
i love your channel 💜
Tina 💜💜💜💜💜 My first thought was, "holy shit! A 30 minute Overall Adventures video --omg how did I get so lucky?!" As I watched you flip lovingly and, at times, reluctantly, through these blessed tomes of your own history... oh wow. All I can say is thank you. Thank you for your vulnerability, your realness, your trust in us as your viewers to hold what you have shared about your journey thus far. The pain, darkness, and very human struggles you let us see here only make me see how ever more brilliantly your soul light shines. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. 🙏🏼 Here's to continued growth and journeying (and adventuring! 😉) Much love!
feel ya
Thank YOU Jess
You are such a brave person. I would never have the courage to read my journals to RUclips or anyone. You are so so wonderful. Thank you for being such a good spirit. You give so much joy. Thank you. 😊 💕❤️
I don’t know how to express the awe I feel over you sharing those gifts with the world. I can tell just by watching your hand movements and how you continued to stretch the sleeves of your sweater over your hands that you felt exposed and vulnerable, and you were! How brave. Thanks in part to your videos I recently began my journaling journey...at the age of 43. Clearly self-discovery happens no matter what your age. Thank you so much for sharing your process, heart, and soul with others so we can learn through you and your experiences.
Wow Tina!!!! I agree with all the lovely comments 💖💖💖 thank you for sharing as I'm sick and tired of people pretending their life is amazing especially online and boring fake videos where they don't share struggles and you feel more alone than you started.
To be honest I loved and appreciated your video, I'm going through a tough time now, like many, the year has been tough and listening to you it calmed me, I didn't feel alone. I'm sorry you went through the tough times too, I guess we all do in someway in life, it shapes us as it has with you, a beautiful soul as I've seen from your other videos! 💐 You layed yourself bare and we don't say but many on that journey yet you were the only one I've seen online being TRULY VUNERABLE! And no-one inspires me, I'm hard to please in this unauthentic world, BUT YOU'VE INSPIRED ME & I have more respect for you than anyone I can think of! Forget fame and celebs, they nothing compared to you 🥰 You are a wonderful role model, I wish u were around when I was young, it would have saved me alot of pain 🙂
Sometimes we just need extraordinary people like you to come forward and make the world a better place by just being you and sharing your goodness like you are 👏 Those prisoners, kids and ex were lucky to have you! I'm just glad you have a better partner now, something I can understand very well! Scarey similar overlaps and I'm glad you are happy, you deserve it and gives us all hope! Esp me I need it right now 😞
Finally thank you for giving people like me hope that years on we will be happy too 😚
Ps we love Luke and you more now 🤣💖💐
This is so inspiring. Thank you for sharing. Your struggle is relatable and it brings me peace to see how you handled everything. You are doing so much good by opening up and sharing.
Thank you, thank you
I just want to thank you for sharing your life and soul with us, even the hardest parts. Everytime I run of inspiration or am in desperate need of some kind of calm I visit your channel, it is like a safe haven to me.
I feel your words right in my chest. Thank you, thank you, thank you
I really appreciate you being so real! This vulnerability shows that you are truly showing yourself unlike other RUclipsrs. I just love that you are so true to yourself
Thank you lovely
I really appreciate you talking so openly about some of the more difficult phases of your life!!! I could tell it mustve taken you some courage to put this out there. So thank you for sharing it with us!
Love your videos! xx
Thank you, thank you
Some of these remind me of my journals from the past couple years, just the hopelessness and not knowing what I was doing or what I was meant to be doing.
Thanks for sharing such a vulnerable time in your life.
I often don't journal when life is really hard (weird huh?) so to see that it's okay to just *BE* in your journal is really helpful. :)
Thank you ♥ I had the saaame struggles (and still have sometimes...) You are a wonderful feminine rolemodel, thank you for sharing your soul. ♥
Ahh this means SO much to me!!! THANK YOU
ruclips.net/video/EBec54KMu58/видео.html hope this helps this guy's voice makes me happy to be alive and I feel calm when I hear the word so give it a try and may peace be upon u be of u :)
Love a random person commenting on RUclips haha a friend :)
I'm always so excited when I see you uploaded a video!
Yesss thank you so much
This was so raw. Thank you for sharing. Watching you flip in your hands through your own thoughts that you have written down has inspired me to write more. I always journal but not nearly enough about real things. Much love and light to you Tina
Thank you lovely
You are so inspiring, I absolutely love all of your videos. Don't worry if you aren't ready to show your journals, as a long time journal writer myself I know how incredibly personal journals are. You are so courageous, I could never imagine showing my journals to the whole world. Thank you so much for sharing
YES! Thank you for this insightful comment!!!! It is all about one day at a time and having FUN with creativity
you are such a kindred spirit, I love the imagery of your words. You are so expressive and creative and empathic, I connect with all of that on such a deep level. Sorry you had a hard year but it's obvious you came out a stronger person. Wish I had the courage to share my journal like this
Thank you for sharing, Tina. I'm always so in awe of your vulnerability. And also jealous of the way you're able to process and move through tough periods in your life. I feel like I am stuck right now and have been for a long time. You're inspiring, the way you show your bleeding heart and all its patches. Thank you
Thank you lovely! Oh my gosh, when I was in the pit of this, I literally felt like I was going to be stuck for the rest of my life. I saw this quote recently that clicked for me "feel to heal" meaning, feel it alllll and somehow owning/honoring the feelings, helps to clear out all of the gunk
Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable with us. I have such a hard time being vulnerable and seeing you sharing such a hard time in your life is really inspiring to me.
Thank you Lizzie
I am so impressed by your openness. I sometimes feel like I have two sides to myself. One that I share with the world and the other I only share with myself. You just brought those two world's together in this video. So BRAVE!
You are amazing and you inspire me to do so much more! You really bring out my creative self🌸
Amazing journal share, life share! I have been there, then a cycle and there again, but knowing my direction now (Germany is my Detroit, at the moment, ugh, but am heading back to US in next couple weeks-thank God! ). Journaling for me is a must .I've been keeping journals for over 30 years, and at times, they have been the life vests keeping me afloat until I regain my strength to swim in the rest of the way, while at other times nothing more than nets for all my venting and rambling (often embarrassing, lol) ---and SO glad nothing got past the net. Hmm, I'm in a nautical mood, obviously, lol. I am very thankful that you took made a brave step to open up some of your journals for us. When you were reading from the 1st journal flip, I felt like a poem was uncovered. "If a sweater could warm my spirits, I would wear a thousand." Beautiful. Thank you! Angela :-)
The unbearable lightness of being. To feel insignificant, to want to make a difference and change the world. At a young age, we never realize that we matter, just by existing. We might never realize how we touch someone's life by just walking by. Sometimes, we get blessed by someone telling us how something completely insignificant we did, changed their lives. But usually, that doesn't happen. We all matter, we are all important, no matter how boring life might seem. Your video brings that all to light, so thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing this. Real videos are the best kind of videos❤
Thank you friend
This is all so relatable for me and many others. I am learning as of late that there is so much courage and power in vulnerability. My own heart and soul are so tightly sealed. This was important for me to see. Thank you so much for sharing!
Tina, this is so amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your bravery and strength, friend. It is so inspiring to see. I look forward to your next video!
Thank you, Bailey
Always LOVE these videos, and truly appreciate your willingness to be open with all of us!
Thank you
You are my favorite RUclipsr I love you ❤️
This video was incredible. Probably your best. Thank you so much for this, you don't know how important this will be for so many people
Oh darling, thank you so much
I think this was a tremendous video. It is very brave to let other people have a peek into something that is so personal, and a time in your life where you were struggling. But it was very inspiring and I loved what you read. I am happy to hear things are going better for you, and I can't wait to see you do another video like this in the future. Thanks for sharing. :)
I love your journaling sharing. I want to try to do it and it’s super hard to figure out what to write and how to share my writing.
I admire so much for being able to, and to have the courage to do this! I can totally understand how hard it is for you to share this! I am also so very glad that you have moved away from that stage in your life, and that your life now is so much better. This video really makes me admire your channel even more. Take care :)
Thank you SO much for your generous words
Love your journals. Currently addicted to your videos! ❤
I loved this video. It's really interesting to hear you talk about this point of your life so openly, it truely is inspiring. I really enjoy all your journaling videos and thanks to you, I'm thinking about starting to journal. I've done some random notes, here and there, and pretty soon I'm going to put them in one jorurnal. Anyway, loved your honesty and I get the "awkwardness" of opening up, but I'm glad you did. Love you :)❤
Thank you so much for this comment, Ana
This video is amazing for its vulnerability and transparency, thanks so much for sharing this! And the way you write, I like how well you describe your emotions and what surrounds you :)
Stay beautiful you are. Continue too be Happy and continue too smile.
At 14:00 I saw that page idea on Pinterest just today! And now I watch this video that has to do with that page?!!!?!! Woah that's amazing! I felt a very weird vibe that I couldn't explain ! Love you vids!!
I got so excited for such a long video and it was so awesome, thank you for sharing this with us all, that takes a whole lotta courage to do. You kinda hit my mentality about life spot on, it comes in chapters, and sure you're gonna have some crapy ones, not so nice ones, but they're chapters nonetheless and like a good book you don't want to skip over the harder chapters because you'll find some of the most important character development comes from there. Wow that got a bit out of hand lol, but yeah, you captured that idea really well here 💚 congrats on a really awesome video and one that took a lot of courage! xx
Thank you lovely
Thanks for sharing. Your courage to share this is very inspiring! I am in awe of your vulnerability and courage. 😁
Just found your channel when searching for journaling. Your perspective on it really spoke to how I'd like to think about my own. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome! Thank YOU for the comment :)
thank you so much for this video.
this is more or less where i am in my live right now. but my live has moved, not me. i am searching for a sense of self and reevaluating what achievement means to me.
i feel uprooted. but it will be okay. it has always been okay in the end.
what a beatiful video. i cant express, why i love it so much, but listening to you, having learned from this, having changed your view on some of these things is incredibly reassuring.
i hope you still feel ok about having shared this.
thank you.
thank you lovely
I love your videos Thank you for sharing this, i understand why it's hard to share journals especially recent year ones. Your videos always make me want to write I was literally writing in my journal while watching this haha
YES! That is an awesome idea to write alongside the video!!! Thank you for the comment and kind words
Wow, you had it hard in Detroit. I'm glad you made it through. How awesome that you saved all that pain. I also had it hard when I first moved out on my own. It's all over my journal. I suffer from depression, but slowly got better with meds, and at some points in my writing I actually wondered why everything was going so well XD It's really funny to look back on. So always keep your journals no matter what. Thanks for this vid, Tina :o)
Thank you for sharing your journey and vulnerabilities. Those periods of deep soul searching through the darkness can feel like we will never make it to the other side. So many questions with very few answers. I love your explanation of, "all this energy and nothing to do with it." Journaling has helped me through so many times when my world was falling apart. I can relate to a lot of the challenges with moving to a new city and being in an unhealthy relationship while trying to understand who I am and why am I here. Your video is inspiring me to make one of my own. Thank you for all your encouragement of trusting the process of finding our way through.
Yes, yes, yes
I physically love you. What an inspiration.
Thank you for sharing. I love to watch people's journal flip though. It's always intriguing to see how people process life
Thank you
That character journal idea is really interesting!!
how do you keep all of your old journals organized? you must have so many
Raw and beautiful
I feel the same way of how you felt in these journals now. Im curious how you got all through it and found your purpose?
I watched the whole 30:30 mins
First, i realy wanted to say thank you so much for these videos
I learned so so much from you about journaling, the idea about journaling about your feelings never ever happen to me and when i saw your way of journaling i loooved it so much
And it has been almost two month since i started, it helped me sorting me feelings about the people and things around me and made me free to say(write) what ever i want and express all kinds of different feelings.
So just THANK YOU TINA ❤️
Oh my gosh, THANK YOU. Seriously, I am overwhelmed with your kindness and I'm so glad that I was able to inspire you
this is incredible, thanks for sharing your story
Thank you sooo much!!!
What those hand dryer things that people use with water couloir paint to make it dry?? Do hairdryers do the same thing?? Maybe they work better than hairdryers??
It's called a heating tool, but I used to use a hair dryer before I got one. As far as I can tell, they work the same :)
Thank you very much for showing us a vulnerable side to yourself. =D
Thank you Corina
Do you ever type your journals?
Hey Tina! I LOVE Your videos! I was wondering if you've ever written a journal with the hope that people would read it? (future posterity, friends, or someone else)
Awesome question!!! Hmmm...no, I don't think I've ever written a journal hoping that others would read it. I have written letters to specific people for them to find later in life and I'm working on an art journal to share with you, but I've never written a whole journal for people to read in the future! That would be super interesting!
I loved this please if your comfortable do more of these!!!
Thank you!! Yes, more on the way!
On the blue journal pause the video on 20:32 and read the top of the left page
Where do you live tina...anyway for some reason .you seems blessed
I live less than a mile from the Detroit. lived in about the same area my whole life. I don't see the desire to want to be here at all. I'd give any thing to live in a less congested area. The amount of people puts everyone on edge and defense
I lived on the river walk right by belle isle, but I feel you, it is definitely a tricky place to live. I felt on edge most of the time that I lived there, but I really needed to get out of New York, which is a whole different level of crazy/congested lol
thx! i really enjoy this vid! i love it!
Thank you lovely
💘💘💘💘
4:50
Omg ily
Very very interesting.
I feel the same exact way about rap music, im glad someone agrees.
Thank you so so much for sharing, Tina. I love you so much!
Thank YOU darling
Overall Adventures you're such a beautiful human ❤️❤️ you make my heart so happy!
I really do like your videos and think that you're being honest which is great BUT before you diss rap you should listen to it. It is all the things you talk about in your videos.. rap shouldn't become a stereotype because of what some of it is without actually listening to it. Rap is strong, meaningful, passionate, sad, hopeful, vulnerability. Some rappers are telling a story of their life, and what they have been through. Friends and family dying, because they get shot or overdose on drugs. Some rappers rap to express their creativity and fear for what they have seen and done. Rap is art. If you want to learn more about what rap really means then check out Moment of Truth - Gangg Star. Guru talking about how people wanted to take everything away from him and he fought back with his creativity and art. Keep Your Head Up - Tupac, he raps about how strong and amazing women are. Street Struck - Big L, raps about how rapping got him lout of the drug game and how messed up the crack game is. Sky is the Limit - notorious BIG the hook is inspirational and he raps about his life as a crack dealer and how rap got him out of that life. And the last one Tha Crossroads - Bones Thugs-and- Harmony, kindof hard to understand but they are talking about death, and how they are scared to die and be alone.
elena You said exactly what I was thinking. I hate when people place stereotypes about all rap because they heard one song. If you don't live the life of unicorns and rainbows, you are not going to rap about unicorns and rainbows.
Thank you for this comment and I probably should have clarified a bit more in the video- I definitely don't hate rap, I just struggled with it at the time because I was financially supporting my ex for his dream to be a rapper. I recently discovered this video about rap that I LOVE and thought you might enjoy
Overall Adventures Thank you for explaining and for the link. I will check it out.
Yes, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it!
There is this Belgian musician that i love. His name is stromae and he does like rap ish songs mainly electronic ya know with a synthesizer. I love his music because all his songs have real, genuine, deep meanings behind them. In an interview he talked about how he loved rap music but felt like he couldn't relate because they are all about sex and drugs and stuff. He said that he doesn't live that kind of life so he felt distant from the lyrics. Anyway so he decided to make music with lyrics that everyone can relate to because his music is based on everyday things that a lot of us choose to ignore. Yeah so when she was talking about her bf wanting to be a rapper but she didn't like it i was just like hey i know a guy!
So search up 'stromae'. P.S: his songs are in french
YES! Thank you so much for sharing!!!! Oh my gosh I adore his video Papaoutai - it's brilliant!!
I find myself wondering why you made this video, and that's not a criticism. I have journals like this but I would never share them like this unless there was some benefit that outweighed the very real potential cost. What motivates you to share your life on youtube in this way?
I totally feel you and I SO appreciate this question and it is one that I think about a lot. It is a long answer, but for the shortened version, I value honestly/vulnerability. I believe in the power of exposing inner truth to create true connection between people. I think a lot about social media - is it bringing us closer together and farther apart - and in a way, I am experimenting with authenticity and truth via youtube. I'm not sure if it will work, but I feel as if I have to try. This is not to say that other youtubers are 'fake', it's more that if I'm going to try to make youtube videos, I want them to be as true to myself as possible. I hope that makes sense, but I can talk more about this in further videos
that makes a lot of sense. thank you for answering. I think that's incredibly brave.
are u a family friendly channel?
I try to keep it as family friendly as possible!
Ok, thank you for replying!! I love your channel, especially your journal ones!!
