    *when you're talking about how hard it is to look back on pictures where you look conventionally beautiful, i felt that on a **_spiritual_** level. When I had long hair, looked really natural and wore 'feminine' clothing, I was **_pretty_** according to societal standards. But I was not confident in myself at all. Now that I have a shaved head, enjoy wearing heavy eyeliner and wear a hybrid of aesthetics, I feel so much more confident because I look like _ME_. Don't get me wrong I still feel insecure about certain things but I remind myself to not view myself with the male gaze and know that I am authentically myself. GO SHAVE YOUR HEAD IF YOU WANT TO it really has forced me to be comfortable in my appearance and also **#bodyneutrality*

    one thing I was always scared of is changing. I used to hold this mindset that I can only define who I am as a person once. For example, in school, I thought the major I chose would define the rest of my career trajectory and I had to stay that person back in freshmen year who chose that major. But I realized that everyone evolves and youre allowed to redefine yourself at any point of your life. We dont have to uphold the image of someone we thought we were going to be from years ago. I know you talked about changing hair but I think the idea of being able to reinvent yourself goes across all facets of life! yay to letting go of limiting beliefs about ourselves!!

    • @amy_lee
      @amy_lee  3 года назад +28

      yes! one thing about being young is that we feel that- everything (our partners, friends, jobs) is so permanent, and all of our emotions are so BIG. like everything seems to be the end of the world or so core-shaking. it's a blessing to feel so deeply but we have so much more life to live! the only constant in life is change. i love this, sam!

    Ok not gonna lie, when I first started watching your videos, I wasn't a huge fan. I didn't know why, but even though I felt that way, I had the urge to stick around and continue to watch your videos. As months and years passed, I realized I had negative feelings towards you because you are like my childhood self. Positive, but also secretly (was) self loathing, happy, looks at the world with genuine eyes, cares about others and what's going on in the world. I think subconsciously I was mad at myself for losing that part of my important childhood and I took it out on you (I never wrote anything negative, just all in my head haha). As I become older and realize a lot of things about myself and become more and more ok with myself, I see you for who you really are. The negative feelings are all gone. You're the person I look forward to to get inspired, to feel better about myself and feel empowered. Mostly importantly, you made me find my childhood self again. Be happy, love everything - especially yourself! life is too fucking short! Thank you!

    this video made me cry!! i resonated so much with everything you said. im also 26 and STILL hold on so much to what i thought i was, and wasnt allowed to do or be. even just silly stuff. there are soo many exaamples of this!
    when i was in grade 8, i had homework to draw a self-portrait. i was semi-proud of what i did but didnt allow myself to even let on that i liked it, because my default to insult myself before others could insult me. my art teacher liked it and showed it as an example to the class. but because i made fun of it prior, my friends started laughing at it and i never allowed myself to think i could be good at drawing, even though i took art into the end of school, i never really drew again. now ive been learning to draw as an adult, and lovingg it so much, i bought myself an ipad air for procreate!!
    when i was in 5th grade , my friend made such a big deal about how ""good"" it was to be a tomboy, and i followed suit. only in the past 2 years ive started to ""allow"" myself to fully love pink?!
    when i was younger, i thought i was too fat and unattractive to dance. now im taking lessons on steezy studios and i'm terrible, and probably will never do the routines infront of anyone, even my partner, but im having so much fun and honouring 13 year old me.

    it's my first time watching one of your videos and i couldn't relate more to some things you said 💔 i love how after 2020 more and more people are realizing that it's okay to go back to your old interests and reconnect with your inner child now that you're older 💛

    I get mistakes as a young soul but I am actually a old soul. I am just learning to embrace my inner child. She has been though a lot. I had a traumatizing childhood so I am living the childhood I always wanted as an adult! Your videos warm my heart. Thanks Amy!!! 💖😊

    Jaw on the floor seeing that Lizzie shirt!! I need it! When that movie came out I made my mom see it with me three times back to back 😂✨ I love reinventing myself, it’s so necessary to separate the growth periods for me. Since so many people are waking up, collectively our changing n growth rate is speeding up! Much love everyone 🌸

    DAM IT, your are one of the most aesthetically pleasing person I’ve ever seen. And what I love the most about you is how you appearance is a reflection of your inside.
    As a photographer I would be just incredibly happy to have someone like you as a model. Sorry you have to feel the opposite.

    Amy, I have been watching your channel for years (literally grew up watching you) but you have been so inspirational lately. I love watching you grow, manifest your dreams, and blossom into such a self assured person. You are like the older sister I never had. I am now starting my spiritual journey to figure out who I am and who I want to be. I can't wait to truly live my life for me. I honestly don't know if I would be going on this journey now if it wasn't for you and your content. Time to honor my inner child!! Much love xoxo

    Ok but I love this, as a child I was so interested in so much stuff and thus just knew so much, I was exploring and just Viking while loving to dance and then the typical German teenage world hit me and I got such bad anxiety and depression, but luckily I’m going to therapy and it’s slowly getting batter but I wish I got that curiosity and knowledge back (so I definitely relate to the buying toys to make up for lost childhood things)

  • @angelikabatwoman
    @angelikabatwoman 3 года назад +3

    I'm SO happy for you Amy! I can tell you feel so much better about yourself! I'm going through this kind of journey myself and not only It helped me be unapologetically me but also explore my sexuality and go back to hobbies from my childhood. Nothing feels as good!

  • @theforestalchemist5311

    The red hair looks sooooooo good on you! I love it so much. Maybe I likr it more than the teal one because Im usually more drawn to red or because you are able to embrace it now freely and you are so happy with it. Nevertheless you're gonna be beautiful no matter what hairstyle you are wearing, you're gonna be beautiful. There's a german actress (Emilia Schüle) who went bold and looks absolutely stunning.

    @applebloomful 3 года назад

    the stuff you said starting at 3:20 really resonated with me (and also had me lowkey shocked bc girl, I always think of you as this lovely, stunning, ethereal being inside and out!!) because how you describe feeling about yourself is how I feel about myself too. I think I need to do some deep thinking about what my security blanket is...haha. And also you could totally pull off a shaved head like absoLUTEly you could.

    Came to add, another way to be nice to your inner kid would be with books you loved as kids! I had this thing where I was like what can I read now I’m in my 20s ?? But the other day I said screw it and ordered myself a Goosebumps book I loved as a kid and it was awesome! I don’t know who makes these phony rules but it’s good when you find out how baloney it all is. Need me some Junie B Jones next 😀

    amy!!! i love the hair!! this videos timing is so crazy because i have recently been struggling with the idea of dying my hair, i was the most conventionally attractive maybe in hs i had long black hair too and since then (that was like 5 years ago) i have had like 7 diff colors like pink and purple but then i shaved it n it was so difficult, i felt so vulnerable and insecure!!! growing it out about now i have a bob and i wanted to go back to pastel pink or blonde but i felt scared because through all my crazy colors and bald head i longed for the safety of my long black hair and wanting to look feminine, girly, dainty and being perceived as beautiful ur little hair speech really hit home and did give me some hope to do whatever with my hair so thank u :)
