please keep this content going guys, the doco-style is great and awesome but many people miss this content, the feeling of being apart of a community, the feeling of others in the world seeking discomfort from seeing others conquering fears, helping people, driving people to socialize and meeting strangers is an amazing feeling. Videos like these show how amazing humans can be after so much hope has been lost on society in the past few years. I really hope to see more YES this year.
This "summer" day in Munich dancing in the rain and the next day climbing that mountain will always be some of my happiest days in my life! Thank you Tommy for this! ❤️
I love how Croatian people spoke about war and leaving it behind to live happy and to be united and free! I hope new generations will have that same mentality. Peace! Much love from Serbia!
I'm a 59 yr old woman fan of Yes theory, I was very touched by your journey Tommy and loved this video. My partner was a so called peace keeper (RCMP on UN mission) during the war, so the Croatian and Serb youths words really hit home. Your generation is much more evolved than the older ones, thankfully, you are the hope of the future. Your channels deserve the attention they get because they transmit from the heart touching all of us where it matters: connection and emotion.
I swear I was smiling and laughing and crying the whole video. in a few days I'm moving away from the country I've lived on for 18 years, Im leaving my parents and friends and moving with my brother and I am so scared but seeing that there are so many amazing, wholesome and great people all over the world definitely has made me less anxious, I am still scared sh*tless but this also makes me exited. I just hope in a near future this could repeat I would love to meet the yes fam. Love you all.
This is classic Yes Theory! While Thomas has evolved into doing more doco-style videos, I love seeing Tommy at the helm of Seek Discomfort and overcoming his fears. Great job!
This is legit so Inspiring, I need to practice seeking discomfort more often tbh.. I don’t do it often because I get nervous but when I do majority of the time it always works out well and I feel happier
@@yamamoto909tvvideosandgame3 or maybe people just actually don’t seek discomfort as much as they should. Instead of being so negative maybe try to do 1 positive thing differently today than usual, that alone should make you feel better! 💯
@@yamamoto909tvvideosandgame3 It isn't staged. I've been to and organised Yesfam meetups myself with over 20 to even over 100 people, the vibe is really great and you should go to a meetup first before saying stuff like this tbh.
@@MegaPj2012 i am not negative. i have been to some tremendous shit in my life and walked out of it. When i tried to share it with Yes Fam they blocked my story. So i am only telling people what they need to know. How come some ordinary bloke did not try this? Tell me!?
It was really worth the 3 years wait. That realization of yours at the end truly hit home. I totally agree, the sense of belonging that many communities make you feel is what I was lacking before joining the Yes Fam. The same feeling that a sports team give you, but I'd say even stronger than that. It connects us on a much more personal level. Thank you
I was in Prague meeting and it was so great, that we organized NYE event in Budapest that year and we met like 60+ ppl all around the World and most of us are still friends and we meet whenever we can 🙂 ❤️
Thomas gaining confidence in himself through each day of this adventure is truly a sight to behold, showcasing the best of people coming together for a laugh and giggle. unreal
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE VIDEO EVER AND YES IM YELLING!!!!!!!! 💛💛💛 So many will relate to this. This will resonate in the hearts of countless individuals. Tommy you are amazing, thank you for this, it’s so hard to believe this was filmed back in 2019 but the story you’ve told is more relevant than ever!
The part where you visited Croatia warms my heart a little extra. I quote the girl who spoke and her beautiful words “we forget about hatred we forget about nationality and religion, we’re just one big happy family”. The fact that their fathers fought in the Balkan war against each other and there they stand together gathered by the yes fam makes me believe in the future. I’m truly thankful for all of you❤️
This video LITERALLY made me cry (especially with the music included in the video) because it was so good and just so inspirational! I am moving in to college this week and am really nervous but will try my best to say "yes" to participating in events and finding new friends...love from northwestern Tennessee
This is a piece of the inspiration I see in The Yes Family every time i connect and watch. I am much older in age but so young at heart - 67 to be exact but when i found Yes Theory over a year ago i became captivated and so hopeful for the future , that there are so many amazing , loving, caring ..... and crazy fun people in the world. What I have seen you do with the Yes Fam is beyond comprehension and it moves me every time i have a few minutes to share in your journey. I will always watch from afar and smile when i see you explore, discover, share and at times change the perception of the world and actually change the wordl! Peace and Love - never stop. Much love from a Fam Member for life!
Literally made me cry cause i think im like you. Still in the zone of not able to go out, anxious of what out there, feel alone. I hope i can see that here in my country. I hope i can experience the open, the wide, the free. I love YES THEORY. At least by watching this video i feel im in the circle of love
You know, this video is both inspiring and adventurous at the same time. Such a combination of great memories, great storytelling and music; incredible, merely incredible
I am crying rn, this video touched me. I struggle with doing new things even though every part of me wants to, this week I want to do something out of my comfort zone. thank you to the amazing YesFam and thank you for the amazing video that has inspired me.
You guys are literally changing the world its so humbling and inspiring to see that throughout all the chaos the world is going though there are still amazing people willing to dance in the rain for hours. This video legit made my eyes water please never stop showing to good in the world you guys are so special i hope i get the chance to meet some of the fam one day!!
I have a tattoo that says life’s not about waiting for the storm to pass but learning to dance in the rain So seeing you not canceling and all dancing for hours was truly beautiful
Tommy, this is beautiful…since you did this I’ve seen you grow and become more courageous, more spontaneous and more emotionally self-aware….and fun-filled. Like many, I am touched by all the people you met…I am far older than your average Yes Fam ‘young person’ but the stories always bring me joy as I believe social connectedness and acceptance is fundamental to our mental health and well-being. I see it in my daughter’s life…those precious friendships from primary school days that have kept her emotionally upright and have helped her grow in confidence and esteem. Sending ❤️ from Christchurch, New Zealand 🇳🇿🇳🇿🐑🐑
This is literally so beautiful. I love this channel, the human connection and how everyone is so welcoming. Thank you to Yes Fam for always showing up. Love you all
Amazing!!!! This video is a real proof that seek disconfort is not only a concept for online videos but its a real life concept of living that many people chose to stand for, cheer for and be apart of! Am so thankful and happy to know that you beautiful humans exists out there THANK YOU ALL for saying YEEES to life and love!! Much love and light !!! 🌸❤️
I have been following yesterday for the past 4years and I must say “ this is their best video” one that come at a perfect time to remind us why this tribes is special and that it’s here to Stay for a long time !
Goosebumps, tears and overwhelming happiness watching this video. So many happy tears thought feeling so connected to people I have never met but share the same outlook on life.
I'm about to move into my own home alone, the first time living alone in just over 30 yrs, you see I'm 52 and just come out of a 23 yr relationship and a gay one at that, my trust was broken many times but I'm sure my trust in life hasn't, I'm young at heart and mind and intend to stay like that. I'm nervous for what is to come but strangely excited at the same time, both your channels have seen me through some very dark moments the past couple of years but finally all I can see is light, thank you for that, my only fear going forward is loneliness, so any seekers out there looking for just a friend, please gimme a shout, I really dont want the loneliness to be my only friend, again thank you guys.
One thing i love about the Yes Fam is that it's just so wholesome. None of that backstabbing, immoral shit. All good vibes. All positive living. I love the movement you guys are propelling, Yes Theory and Seek Discomfort. Creating this sense of belonging and acceptance and FAMILY that we all genuinely need.
I can only say that Yes Fam changed my life forever. Creating memories, making friendships, there is nothing better and the Yes Fam. We organised so many meet-ups and now a new one in Berlin again, can't wait for that one!
Glad I've been following this channel for years, throughout all my hardest of times. Without this channel helping me grow, I wouldn't be able to live simply. Lost both my parents before 21. And have to help raise my youngest brother. Only reason I feel okay, is the security in myself I have now. To be able to make friends, talk to people and connect on a real level. Yes theory completely change my view on strangers and life. I used to have severe general and social anxiety. To the point I could barely live as a human and get my needs met as I couldn't speak to anyone back then. Truly glad I found this community. Though I have yet to travel and meet more of the community, just the videos alone has helped me so much to actually want to live my life. A lot of my siblings also struggle with similar things and now I'm trying to help them with what I've learnt with these videos. You guys won't ever understand the actual help you guys actually provide.
"for most of my life I've felt lonely, like an outsider, like I hadn't ever found my tribe" this hits so damn hard. I didn't fit in in school. I didn't have the same interests as most people and tribalism is problematic where I'm from so I just never fit in. I went my whole school life without any real friends. And of course not fitting in and not having friends leads to being bullied which just made the loneliness that much worse. About 2 years after discovering yes theory for the first time and a little over a year of finishing school I can safely say I still don't really have friends but I am more confident than ever in myself and my faith in people has been restored. In a world of so much negativity and struggles it's so comforting to know yes theory and yes fam exist. Thank you yes theory for building this community and thank you yes fam for being this community. There's a saying in Irish "ní neart go chur le chéile" which means "strength in unity" and this incredible community is the living embodiment of this saying
Thank you so much for creating this platform for people to become friends and overall create a community through being yourself! This was an absolutely beautiful video with outstanding music! Thank you for creating the Yes Fam community! I am so happy that I can say I am apart this amazing family!!!
I LOVE this video. As someone who has been to these meetups before, this really reminded me of how special they are. This video deserves to be on the main channel! One of the best videos yet
This video brought tears to my eyes. I resonate with Thomas so much in being very introverted and scared to meet new people and do things by myself. This video brought hope and joy and just overall love for this community of beautiful humans. I love you yes fam!
It's so awesome finally seeing this video! Back then I was at the Vienna meet up, and basically at all other things you did in Vienna (Prater amusement park, Donauinsel etc.) since - as you said it multiple times in the video - non of us wanted to say goodbye. It is so nice seeing this video now and remembering those moments. Thank you! ❤
Thank you for sharing your journey. It so nice to see how you guys have built a community platform like this. I am 58, my life has been filled with many wonderful adventures of discomfort pushing through many obstacles to become more fulfilled. I am so happy to have found your channel a few weeks ago. 💯
Its great seeing the love people give all around the world... I am from Delaware, USA. I am in recovery, was a super hardcore addict... yet I have always had a huge heart and care so much about what everyone thinks. For that reason for years I hid my issues... Even though now I realize not everyone has lived my path, and may not understand... the yes fam has made me realize that there is a lot of love left in this world... and not to waste any time holding myself back from Living... thank you
What I like the most about this is it lets me know that there is still kindness, genorousity, and love but most of all one heck of a good time when you find it. You just need to seak it. This was very moving video to watch. These young people enjoying life I wish more older people can see the promise that this generation has and the one that proceeds it.
this video means so much to me. i cried the whole time. i want to create something like this i wanna experiance this huge sense of belonging. thank you for this master piece of a video
The yes theory fam is what started it all for me...and I'm about to pursue my photography life on a whole new level! I've been creating videos for a few months now after deciding to pursue photography. See, I really DO have a story. I almost went blind TWICE due to retinal detachment over 20yrs ago, surgery to save it, living life with messed up vision for over 20 yrs (turned out the 1st surgery gave me cataracts) and then when my eyes almost were going blind again, I couldn't work anymore and lost everything, I had surgery again and VIOLA! My vision is now almost COMPLETELY restored!!! I had lived a life with depth perception problems and mild color blindness for over 20+ years and now I saw the world in vibrant brilliant full color! I cried when I first came outside and saw it all...and then, over time, I started taking more and more photos when I traveled (which wasn't often) and people started telling me how great I was at it...so apparently, I have developed this way to take photos so even the mundane can look interesting, I have unique angles and with this talent I have now developed/discovered, I have found my passion! I will be going on the road soon, doing gig work and yes, living out of my car! It can be done and I'm doing it voluntarily! lol...i cannot wiat to start this adventure! (waiting on a settlement check to begin!) THANK YOU YES FAM FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART...YOU WERE THE START!
I wish I was young again, so I could be a part of this big loving community. I've felt a sense of not belonging most of my life, and putting way to much effort into things that really don't matter. Such as doing what's expected of me by others, trying to fit in, instead of just being myself, enjoying life and love. It's really inspiring watching all those people coming together as a big family, no matter where you come from. I hope some of you become the world leaders of tomorrow, and not letting yourself become corrupt by old-fashioned values (such as hate, greed etc.), but keep being open minded and loving towards other people. You give me new hope for the future! ❤
This is sureal, you are one of the most talented community builders and story tellers brining people together through a foundation of love and adventure!
Seek Discomfort has always been such an inspiration for me, having watched everyone in the channel grow & spread positive awareness around the world with so many different people, as well as pushing yourselves to experience things most people hold themselves back from doing, is so motivational! Thank you all for documenting and sharing these experiences with us! Seeing the growth in you Thomas, through the videos over the years, has been inspiring itself to me, really stepped out of your comfort zone and so proud of you! So glad you enjoyed it! Proud of all of the Yes Fam!🫶🏼
Thank you for making this video, it reinvigorated my belief in what the Yes Fam is. The og members of yes theory dont put out content that made me fall in love with community anymore. But connecting with normal people in random towns is what I believe made the community stronger. At first I was suspicious of the seek discomfort channel, but now I realize this is the next Yes Theory without all the hype and circumstance. You guys are bringing it back to the roots of what Yes Theory was and I think that's a great thing. Congrats on trip and thank you for sharing.
Every time I watch a Yes Theory Adventure, it makes my day and this one was no different. Cant wait to be able to say that I've been on one too someday. And just love that fact that you used Sleep on the Floor and Ophelia, THE LUMINEERS fit so well with the mood, the theme! Thank you for that...
almost all these videos make me feel something. indescribable with the life ive lived and the way the world left me jaded its these videos that keep me from giving up
This was such an inspiring video. I'm a bit older than most of the Yes Family folks in these videos. I hope to be able to find a community that I can fit into. Wish me luck!
So proud of you for continuing to move forward and live life to the fullest! I may be one of your more senior followers but I can tell you Seek Discomfort is one of the greatest inspirational things I’ve seen
This video made me search up my local yes fam groups, I have watched you guys for years now and this just made me feel like I need to meet all you wonderful ppl. This channel have created such a cool community and I can't wait to be a bigger part of it and not just watch from afar. Thank you!
This video is such an inspiration for me to push myself outside of my introverted bubble and strive for experiences like this 💗 I love this community, and it’s amazing to see its impact in people’s lives. Also, the music choices in this vid are the best!!
Due to work, my son and I had to leave the München meet-up way too early. The time spent there we had an incredible time. My kid hated being in the rain at first, but since leaving had asked frequently when we were meeting everyone again. Thank you so much for visiting, and being a huge inspiration. I love this group and the many friends made from it 🫶
Td's evolution is so beautiful and important to see man, Cos its sometimes so hard to see how easy it is to get yourself out there and have great experiences. This for sure could(should) have been a main channel video because this shit is why I love yes theory, it reminds us not to be scared to be human.
I just discovered this channel and Yes Theory last week! I'm a GenXer and so wish y'all were around when I was younger, but despite that am so happy to have found y'all now. Love is the deepest human denominator and I love that y'all show that with each video. Mucho love to y'all!!!
Tommy, this is freaking great. I haven't been on any meetups but the video made me feel like I was. Thank for taking the time to tell this story. My best friend Goran was in Zagreb to meet you and I was so glad I saw the video before him, so I called him on WhatsApp and let him know the good news :)
Geezzz...the beauty of joy you guys bring the world is uncountable ..this is a tiny look at how yes theory has touched so many.. thank you for bringing this community together..you inspire optimism and unity!! This will shape the future!!
Mann Tommy you're the best! So genuine and open. Little bit jealouse realizing i was so close in 2019 but didn't knew about it. However; time will come! I started to tear up during this movie and although i only had 2 small meetups, i cant wait for more and one day meet ya guys and other yesfammers! Amazing storytelling, thank you Tommy!
I have enjoyed of the yes theory videos. But this one tops them all. The love, the support, the friendship, the joy in all these young people is contagious. I love you all. And I am 62!
this turned out to be a beautiful video. so many emotions felt and memories and friends made on this trip. really shows how much positivity and kindness there still is in this world
Dear you did so good, and you took back your fun in what you do best!.. I'm fearfull of everything, not being a good mom, partner, employee, friend but also all people so I started to say hi walking to every stranger.. and made me proud of myself, it's a small step but a huge triomf ❤️
tommy, thank you so much for sharing this video! it was so beautiful and made me super emotional watching your europe journey and remembering mine and how much it changed me as well. the yes theory fam is something so special and i am so grateful to be apart of it.
This video made me cry. As a 43 year old, I think your generation is absolutely fabulous and you are doing a great job of shedding the selfish arrogance, that was the MO of most of my generation. LOVE Yes fam. ❤️💪
I understand what Tommy means, but for some people, like me, those gatherings drain their energy..... I'm part of the Yes Fam for 4 years now and never been to a meet-up. I don't Seek Discomfort, I FEEL discomfort interacting with most humans. I've always been judged and bullied, so I hardly ever trust anyone and rather spend time alone. But lately alone turned into lonely and I think this community is the right place to help change that. So I want to take a stand for the "older" Yes Fam member that isn't into wild, long, drunk adventures, but are looking for true connections (quietly).... Keep the hope alive.... 💖
i love this video, i can relate so well to feeling lonely and not belong. but you showed me that everyone always belongs somewhere, you just have to find it. thank you tommy for this incredible story❤️
Big thank you for this! I suffer from panick attacks and anxiety. I´m even afraid of meeting my close friends, because I feel like it just takes over. So seeing this gives me hope, because deep down I know, that this it the life I want, but it´s just so damn hard to fight through.
When a video you watch really makes you realize the world isn’t as torn as it seem to be. Brings a tear to your eye. It goes without saying. 1.2.3 SEEK DISCOMFORT.
I am so emotional watching this! Talking about a sense of community that steps away from living in a specific town or having at set religion resonates with me so much. Thank you for telling this story so beautifully ❤ I am proud to be a Yes Fam member
I am not as young ad most people in this video. But this video spoke to me, for years I have been unsettled, I feel a big void and I finally figured it out after watching this video. What is missing in my life is a sense of belonging. I migrated to Europe, no friends and family. I gave a small family of my own now but I still feel like I don’t belong. Which makes me very sad. Although I watch your videos for years, I have still not gathered enough courage to seek discomfort. I am aware no one will read this comment but had to get it off my chest. Thanks to Thomas I know now what I am missing.
its crazy every time i watch a video from you guys you always makes me so happy and i cry every time big HAPPY tears you guys rock this world and i don't think you know how much you all do for this world i will say big thanks and keep up the good work and trust me i will stay here forever

I hope i can experience the open, the wide, the free. I love YES THEORY. At least by watching this video i feel im in the circle of love
It sucks when feeling alone becomes normal. Break away.
And grow
I cried watching this . I wanna do stuff like this so bad. The unity, love and warmth that everyone gives off is so beautiful.
Writing this comment while crying... I wish the same. I have lived 30 years but haven't met my tribe that clicks well.
I swear this video had me choked up the entire time. It’s moving to know that there is a community like the the YesFam 💗
Same here,i wish i could be a part of it
Once you dance in the rain, you can never not smile when it rains again♥

I see it in my daughter’s life…those precious friendships from primary school days that have kept her emotionally upright and have helped her grow in confidence and esteem.
Sending ❤️ from Christchurch, New Zealand 🇳🇿🇳🇿🐑🐑
This is literally so beautiful. I love this channel, the human connection and how everyone is so welcoming. Thank you to Yes Fam for always showing up. Love you all
Amazing!!!! This video is a real proof that seek disconfort is not only a concept for online videos but its a real life concept of living that many people chose to stand for, cheer for and be apart of! Am so thankful and happy to know that you beautiful humans exists out there
THANK YOU ALL for saying YEEES to life and love!! Much love and light !!! 🌸❤️
I have been following yesterday for the past 4years and I must say “ this is their best video” one that come at a perfect time to remind us why this tribes is special and that it’s here to Stay for a long time !
Goosebumps, tears and overwhelming happiness watching this video. So many happy tears thought feeling so connected to people I have never met but share the same outlook on life.
I'm about to move into my own home alone, the first time living alone in just over 30 yrs, you see I'm 52 and just come out of a 23 yr relationship and a gay one at that, my trust was broken many times but I'm sure my trust in life hasn't, I'm young at heart and mind and intend to stay like that. I'm nervous for what is to come but strangely excited at the same time, both your channels have seen me through some very dark moments the past couple of years but finally all I can see is light, thank you for that, my only fear going forward is loneliness, so any seekers out there looking for just a friend, please gimme a shout, I really dont want the loneliness to be my only friend, again thank you guys.
One thing i love about the Yes Fam is that it's just so wholesome. None of that backstabbing, immoral shit. All good vibes. All positive living. I love the movement you guys are propelling, Yes Theory and Seek Discomfort. Creating this sense of belonging and acceptance and FAMILY that we all genuinely need.
I can only say that Yes Fam changed my life forever. Creating memories, making friendships, there is nothing better and the Yes Fam. We organised so many meet-ups and now a new one in Berlin again, can't wait for that one!
Glad I've been following this channel for years, throughout all my hardest of times. Without this channel helping me grow, I wouldn't be able to live simply. Lost both my parents before 21. And have to help raise my youngest brother. Only reason I feel okay, is the security in myself I have now. To be able to make friends, talk to people and connect on a real level. Yes theory completely change my view on strangers and life. I used to have severe general and social anxiety. To the point I could barely live as a human and get my needs met as I couldn't speak to anyone back then. Truly glad I found this community. Though I have yet to travel and meet more of the community, just the videos alone has helped me so much to actually want to live my life. A lot of my siblings also struggle with similar things and now I'm trying to help them with what I've learnt with these videos. You guys won't ever understand the actual help you guys actually provide.
"for most of my life I've felt lonely, like an outsider, like I hadn't ever found my tribe" this hits so damn hard.
I didn't fit in in school. I didn't have the same interests as most people and tribalism is problematic where I'm from so I just never fit in. I went my whole school life without any real friends. And of course not fitting in and not having friends leads to being bullied which just made the loneliness that much worse.
About 2 years after discovering yes theory for the first time and a little over a year of finishing school I can safely say I still don't really have friends but I am more confident than ever in myself and my faith in people has been restored. In a world of so much negativity and struggles it's so comforting to know yes theory and yes fam exist.
Thank you yes theory for building this community and thank you yes fam for being this community. There's a saying in Irish "ní neart go chur le chéile" which means "strength in unity" and this incredible community is the living embodiment of this saying
Thank you so much for creating this platform for people to become friends and overall create a community through being yourself! This was an absolutely beautiful video with outstanding music! Thank you for creating the Yes Fam community! I am so happy that I can say I am apart this amazing family!!!
A rare and a once a lifetime experience! Please continue to inspire more people to SEEK DISCOMFORT !! 🌻🌻
I was so touched watching this. So glad we get to connect in this wonderful community. Thank you for everything you do yes Fam!
I LOVE this video. As someone who has been to these meetups before, this really reminded me of how special they are. This video deserves to be on the main channel! One of the best videos yet
This video brought tears to my eyes. I resonate with Thomas so much in being very introverted and scared to meet new people and do things by myself. This video brought hope and joy and just overall love for this community of beautiful humans. I love you yes fam!
Man, this one hit me hard. I find myself losing sight of what matters and my purpose. Hope to find it again soon. Keep it up!
It's so awesome finally seeing this video! Back then I was at the Vienna meet up, and basically at all other things you did in Vienna (Prater amusement park, Donauinsel etc.) since - as you said it multiple times in the video - non of us wanted to say goodbye. It is so nice seeing this video now and remembering those moments. Thank you! ❤
Thank you for sharing your journey. It so nice to see how you guys have built a community platform like this. I am 58, my life has been filled with many wonderful adventures of discomfort pushing through many obstacles to become more fulfilled. I am so happy to have found your channel a few weeks ago. 💯
Your smile is absolutely infectious. I’ve loved watching your journey over the years, truly inspiring.
This just looks incredible. I’m older than most of these people (39) but I truly hope to meet some Yes Fam people in person some day!!!
Its great seeing the love people give all around the world... I am from Delaware, USA. I am in recovery, was a super hardcore addict... yet I have always had a huge heart and care so much about what everyone thinks. For that reason for years I hid my issues... Even though now I realize not everyone has lived my path, and may not understand... the yes fam has made me realize that there is a lot of love left in this world... and not to waste any time holding myself back from Living... thank you
What I like the most about this is it lets me know that there is still kindness, genorousity, and love but most of all one heck of a good time when you find it. You just need to seak it. This was very moving video to watch. These young people enjoying life I wish more older people can see the promise that this generation has and the one that proceeds it.
this video means so much to me. i cried the whole time. i want to create something like this i wanna experiance this huge sense of belonging. thank you for this master piece of a video
The yes theory fam is what started it all for me...and I'm about to pursue my photography life on a whole new level! I've been creating videos for a few months now after deciding to pursue photography. See, I really DO have a story. I almost went blind TWICE due to retinal detachment over 20yrs ago, surgery to save it, living life with messed up vision for over 20 yrs (turned out the 1st surgery gave me cataracts) and then when my eyes almost were going blind again, I couldn't work anymore and lost everything, I had surgery again and VIOLA! My vision is now almost COMPLETELY restored!!! I had lived a life with depth perception problems and mild color blindness for over 20+ years and now I saw the world in vibrant brilliant full color! I cried when I first came outside and saw it all...and then, over time, I started taking more and more photos when I traveled (which wasn't often) and people started telling me how great I was at it...so apparently, I have developed this way to take photos so even the mundane can look interesting, I have unique angles and with this talent I have now developed/discovered, I have found my passion! I will be going on the road soon, doing gig work and yes, living out of my car! It can be done and I'm doing it voluntarily! lol...i cannot wiat to start this adventure! (waiting on a settlement check to begin!) THANK YOU YES FAM FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART...YOU WERE THE START!
I wish I was young again, so I could be a part of this big loving community. I've felt a sense of not belonging most of my life, and putting way to much effort into things that really don't matter. Such as doing what's expected of me by others, trying to fit in, instead of just being myself, enjoying life and love.
It's really inspiring watching all those people coming together as a big family, no matter where you come from. I hope some of you become the world leaders of tomorrow, and not letting yourself become corrupt by old-fashioned values (such as hate, greed etc.), but keep being open minded and loving towards other people. You give me new hope for the future! ❤
There's nothing stopping you from being a part of this community! No one will judge you for being older than many of them 💙
So great to see, Matt! And this is definitely an epic trip! Wish you’d come here in Asia, Philippines specifically!
This is sureal, you are one of the most talented community builders and story tellers brining people together through a foundation of love and adventure!
Seek Discomfort has always been such an inspiration for me, having watched everyone in the channel grow & spread positive awareness around the world with so many different people, as well as pushing yourselves to experience things most people hold themselves back from doing, is so motivational! Thank you all for documenting and sharing these experiences with us! Seeing the growth in you Thomas, through the videos over the years, has been inspiring itself to me, really stepped out of your comfort zone and so proud of you! So glad you enjoyed it! Proud of all of the Yes Fam!🫶🏼
Thank you for making this video, it reinvigorated my belief in what the Yes Fam is. The og members of yes theory dont put out content that made me fall in love with community anymore. But connecting with normal people in random towns is what I believe made the community stronger. At first I was suspicious of the seek discomfort channel, but now I realize this is the next Yes Theory without all the hype and circumstance. You guys are bringing it back to the roots of what Yes Theory was and I think that's a great thing. Congrats on trip and thank you for sharing.
Every time I watch a Yes Theory Adventure, it makes my day and this one was no different. Cant wait to be able to say that I've been on one too someday. And just love that fact that you used Sleep on the Floor and Ophelia, THE LUMINEERS fit so well with the mood, the theme! Thank you for that...
This has to be one of the best stories you have told. Hits home. Thanks for sharing this
almost all these videos make me feel something. indescribable with the life ive lived and the way the world left me jaded its these videos that keep me from giving up
This was such an inspiring video. I'm a bit older than most of the Yes Family folks in these videos. I hope
to be able to find a community that I can fit into. Wish me luck!
So proud of you for continuing to move forward and live life to the fullest! I may be one of your more senior followers but I can tell you Seek Discomfort is one of the greatest inspirational things I’ve seen
I’m also an older subscriber, I would love to do this for the “more mature” audience.
This video made me search up my local yes fam groups, I have watched you guys for years now and this just made me feel like I need to meet all you wonderful ppl. This channel have created such a cool community and I can't wait to be a bigger part of it and not just watch from afar. Thank you!
I just love your content, so grateful for this channel and the amazing content you all put out! Thank You!
This video is such an inspiration for me to push myself outside of my introverted bubble and strive for experiences like this 💗 I love this community, and it’s amazing to see its impact in people’s lives. Also, the music choices in this vid are the best!!
Due to work, my son and I had to leave the München meet-up way too early. The time spent there we had an incredible time. My kid hated being in the rain at first, but since leaving had asked frequently when we were meeting everyone again. Thank you so much for visiting, and being a huge inspiration. I love this group and the many friends made from it 🫶
i actually started crying by this video. hope you all have a wonderful life, you wonderful people. enjoy yourself even during hard times.
Amazing feeling of aliveness just to watch you guys unite and share moments of joy and love, beautiful ♥
This video touched my soul! I loved it SO much, thank you for sharing your story Tommy, you got me crying here.
Dear yes theory guys, you can't even realise how big is your impact in my life. Thank you for everything, thank you for existing.♥️
What an epic video I love seein Matt still ❤️🙌
Td's evolution is so beautiful and important to see man, Cos its sometimes so hard to see how easy it is to get yourself out there and have great experiences.
This for sure could(should) have been a main channel video because this shit is why I love yes theory, it reminds us not to be scared to be human.
I just discovered this channel and Yes Theory last week! I'm a GenXer and so wish y'all were around when I was younger, but despite that am so happy to have found y'all now. Love is the deepest human denominator and I love that y'all show that with each video. Mucho love to y'all!!!
Tommy, this is freaking great. I haven't been on any meetups but the video made me feel like I was. Thank for taking the time to tell this story. My best friend Goran was in Zagreb to meet you and I was so glad I saw the video before him, so I called him on WhatsApp and let him know the good news :)
I love you guys, such a great signal you are sending to the world and beyond. …you are creating a whole new art form.
What a wonderful gift for my Sunday morning and perfect way to start my week. I freaking love you guys!!!
That part with "Sleep on the floor" by the Lumineers from 12:32 makes me so happy-sad, I can't describe it!
♥️♥️♥️
Geezzz...the beauty of joy you guys bring the world is uncountable ..this is a tiny look at how yes theory has touched so many.. thank you for bringing this community together..you inspire optimism and unity!! This will shape the future!!
Mann Tommy you're the best! So genuine and open. Little bit jealouse realizing i was so close in 2019 but didn't knew about it. However; time will come! I started to tear up during this movie and although i only had 2 small meetups, i cant wait for more and one day meet ya guys and other yesfammers! Amazing storytelling, thank you Tommy!
Dude this film is just so well done! The message is so beautiful!💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
You hit the nail on the head---belonging is crucial to feel alive. Thank you for reminding all of us that we belong.
I have enjoyed of the yes theory videos. But this one tops them all. The love, the support, the friendship, the joy in all these young people is contagious.
I love you all. And I am 62!
this turned out to be a beautiful video. so many emotions felt and memories and friends made on this trip. really shows how much positivity and kindness there still is in this world
Amazing - been watching Yes theory for years thank you guys for all you do ♥️
Dear you did so good, and you took back your fun in what you do best!.. I'm fearfull of everything, not being a good mom, partner, employee, friend but also all people so I started to say hi walking to every stranger.. and made me proud of myself, it's a small step but a huge triomf ❤️
tommy, thank you so much for sharing this video! it was so beautiful and made me super emotional watching your europe journey and remembering mine and how much it changed me as well. the yes theory fam is something so special and i am so grateful to be apart of it.
Moved me to tears!! There’s hope for our world and it starts with YES! We are truly citizens of the world!
This video made me cry. As a 43 year old, I think your generation is absolutely fabulous and you are doing a great job of shedding the selfish arrogance, that was the MO of most of my generation. LOVE Yes fam. ❤️💪
I understand what Tommy means, but for some people, like me, those gatherings drain their energy..... I'm part of the Yes Fam for 4 years now and never been to a meet-up.
I don't Seek Discomfort, I FEEL discomfort interacting with most humans. I've always been judged and bullied, so I hardly ever trust anyone and rather spend time alone.
But lately alone turned into lonely and I think this community is the right place to help change that.
So I want to take a stand for the "older" Yes Fam member that isn't into wild, long, drunk adventures, but are looking for true connections (quietly)....
Keep the hope alive.... 💖
That was awesome. Seeing the change in your face from day 1 to day finito was an incredible thing to catch on camera and watch. Nice work!
Look how far Tommy has come from being abandoned in Thailand to his very own adventures!!
i love this video, i can relate so well to feeling lonely and not belong. but you showed me that everyone always belongs somewhere, you just have to find it. thank you tommy for this incredible story❤️
Big thank you for this! I suffer from panick attacks and anxiety. I´m even afraid of meeting my close friends, because I feel like it just takes over. So seeing this gives me hope, because deep down I know, that this it the life I want, but it´s just so damn hard to fight through.
Tommy you are by far my favorite member of the gang and I love your smile and you just vibe bro! Love you extra so so much! 💗
When a video you watch really makes you realize the world isn’t as torn as it seem to be. Brings a tear to your eye. It goes without saying. 1.2.3 SEEK DISCOMFORT.
I am so emotional watching this! Talking about a sense of community that steps away from living in a specific town or having at set religion resonates with me so much. Thank you for telling this story so beautifully ❤ I am proud to be a Yes Fam member
The videos you guys put out on both channels are beyond amazing.
You guys deserve all the success that comes your way.
This is soo inspiring. Growing up is a very homogeneous area of the world your videos are what have inspired me to move away and travel
This is amazing!!! I love what you guys do so much and I am so happy there are still people like this all around the world!!
Just sitting here crying with joy on a Sunday… Thank you TD for this amazing journey
I am not as young ad most people in this video. But this video spoke to me, for years I have been unsettled, I feel a big void and I finally figured it out after watching this video. What is missing in my life is a sense of belonging. I migrated to Europe, no friends and family. I gave a small family of my own now but I still feel like I don’t belong. Which makes me very sad. Although I watch your videos for years, I have still not gathered enough courage to seek discomfort. I am aware no one will read this comment but had to get it off my chest. Thanks to Thomas I know now what I am missing.
Ahh why am I crying tears but with a smile wide to my cheeks? Loved this video! 🗺 can't wait to meet Yes Fam on my trip around Europe too 🌍
its crazy every time i watch a video from you guys you always makes me so happy and i cry every time big HAPPY tears you guys rock this world and i don't think you know how much you all do for this world i will say big thanks and keep up the good work and trust me i will stay here forever
