I’m a nurse and I research the effects of stress!!! Without talking w medical jargon basically it’s believed now in the medical community stress is a huge (if not leading ) factor in most diseases such as cancer autoimmune diseases and so on! I’m 48 and have a laundry list of diseases and agree they get worse and or start with stress! Get control of it at your age before you are my age! Love ❤️ you!
Omg! I'm a hairy female. Always hated it, and it's very noticeable being a light skinned black woman with black hair. Over time, I grew to love my insecurities. Now, being 30, I love everything about myself. Love handles, wrinkles, hairy legs, and all. Honey, you're beautiful and amazing ❤
THANK YOU!! Hahaha I'm in my no shaving and very minimal makeup phase and my skin is getting better from it ^__^ Thank you again for your encouragement!
This is a little out of left field, but there's this great moment in the Brand New Animal anime where the protagonist gets an insult about her beast-form arms and basically says, screw your beauty standards and I decide what's beautiful for myself. It was honestly kinda cathartic as another hairy armed lady haha.
@@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo I have hairy arms too, and I'm also dark-haired. I shaved my arms once, then thought if someone wanted a hairless woman then they were weird, and now I think, this is how bodies naturally are. We're hairy. And if they don't accept that or me because of that, then F that. If I have to accept a man's hairy face and legs, and they refuse to accept my arms, definitely F that unevenness.
4:10 I want to point out that I too have very hairy arms and have had them since I was a kid! I also do not apologize for them… because they are part of my integumentary system and are there for a reason… also, they’re mine! Sincerest condolences to you and your family. Be well love… beautifly creative spreads as always!
Helen, I am very happy you are taking care of yourself. I've been following you since shortly before you started college, I believe, and I've always been concerned with how hard you work. So it is lovely to see you taking steps to prioritize your mental and physical health. You are a wonderfully caring and talented individual, and you deserve good things. Including good health.
This made me so happy to read Cat, thank you for your continued support and for believing in me throughout it all! YES to pick up limes, I watch her videos even with no intentions of making anything haha. Love you lots!
Helen, sorry for the loss of your grandmother for you and your family. I so get the just missing seeing them one last time. I missed my BFF passing 10 minutes. Her daughter (my niece) amd her brother missed her my 5 minutes. They had stepped out for a little walk. Her passing was unexpected in that it even caught the doctor by surprise as she was improving greatly. She waited until we were all out of the room. Glad to hear you're getting health issued looked at. I remember what stress did to my body in my 20s. I have a few residue issues that pop up every so often and have to process check what's going on to bring long term relief. Ps... arm hair is more common than you think. Just say to yourself you'll always be warm💕 I'm always cold. Would love to see you pick up a Hemlock and Oak and do an occasional spread with your stickers and washi and art. I use their freebie dated printable in my Classic Happy Planner. I just resize the printable. Excited for your move to the new office space. You have and the family have definitely earned it🎉 My guess is the report from Shopify came late because someone said ohhhh what does this button or report do... lol May the healthForce be with you❤️ Your Seattle auntie.
Shopify sending you a trophy two years later had me in stitches! I love laughing at random stuff like that! And yes please Helen, if you perfect the bar recipe please share with us!!! Lovely video as always! X
omg so agree on the arm hair thing i rmbr this kid in middle school pointed out how i had more arm hair than a guy and it rlly got 2 me but now i couldnt honestly care less :3
I enjoyed your video. ❤ (interruptions didn't bother me. I liked that you didn't edit them out.) *big hugs* I hope you feel better soon. The fish were my favorite part of your bullet journal doodle. I am a big ocean life fan. I need two more bean cards filled then I can get the bean samplers! They are awesome! (Just realized I could take ONE photo of the completed cards grouped together. *headdesk*) You work so hard. I appreciate the time you give to the FB group and other socials. I hope you keep making time for self-care. I know how it is to be busy and forget to nurture yourself. ❤
The interuptions just show your a real human in a real world. They probably dont bother most of us. I hopr your health issues are resolved easily and I hope your move goes smoothly. ❤
We love you Helen !! tu es une vrai source de motivation pour moi. Merci de partager tout cela avec nous. C'est plus que courageux de ta part, tu fais partie des Meilleures
Helen, gurrrrl! You always be too harsh on yourself!! I love your videos. I love your creativity and the way you share your anxieties is not a fault but honest. You are an inspiration! Believe gurrrl!!
13:53 Omg ahhhhhh, you actualllly tried out my habit tracker method! I am so beyond honoured Helen!! It's crazy to think that my biggest inspiration for creating a planner account and being consistent with journaling lets you know that they've been inspired by something you've done! I have no words to express how I feel right now.. thank you so much 🥺❤
I hope you feel better soon Helen ❤! I adore you and your company. I highly recommend Sterling Ink's common planner! It is essentially the same as the cousin but is more basic.
I also have very hairy arms! I had a person I was crushing on point out my hairiness and actually complicated me on it, which was so embarrassing but also really nice? I decided that this is just how I am and if that bothers other people, it's their problem, not mine!
Thin girls tend to have hairy arms. It helps keep us warm by giving extra space for air to be held against our skin at a warm temperature. I also have hair on the backs of my hands, my knuckles, peach fuzz all over my face and neck etc. It's definitely not just you! Anyways, wasn't expecting this upload and it's so fun to have more stuff to watch. Always looking forward to the next release!
I have lots of dark hair on my arms too! When I was young my peers would comment about it, which made me self conscious about it, but at this point I forget about the hair like all the time. I think it’s more normal than we think for girls to have hairy arms. 😄 You’re not alone! ❤
Pick up Limes! yummy. I highly recommend her granola- specifically "Crunchy Almond & Mango Granola". Just the wet ingredients with whatever combo of dry ingredients you like or you have on hand is soooo good. We have it on hand always. :) Love your videos and artwork (sooo cute). Makes me smile.
I'm fascinated with your handwriting and your spreads. I'm sure I'm not the first to tell you that your notes look like printed ideal notes. I wish I was so creative and accurate myself. Sorry for the stupid question, what does the "TCMC" sticker mean? I'm relatively new here)
And one more question (if you will), how much time do you usually spend on daily planning and reflection. I try to be consistent with my BuJo rapid logging and "some lines a day" in a 5-year journal, and sometimes I already feel overwhelmed
Whatever you’re going through, Helen, I hope you’ll recover from it. Get well soon 💐. And speaking of hairy, I haven’t get rid of hair on my legs since I can’t really bend that well after surgery. I have to wear swimsuits for the hydrotherapy and I just don’t care if anyone see my hairy legs. It isn’t a priority in my life.
I also have hairy arms! Even though it's a common trait of my race, I do feel embarrassed about it as well. I shaved for a short time during my pregnancy (because my arms were checked regularly by nurses taking my blood pressure) but I definitely have gotten back to embracing them. Nobody got time to be shaving their arms every other day
I also plan to get another A5 Cousin. The petite bag is perfect size and shape for me but I really dislike the cartoonish characters and too silly to carry to work. Enjoy July 2023!
Such a great video as always duh 🙄 I love the idea of a themed page with the samplers. So excited to cash in some bean cards for those! I am so sorry to hear that the stress is affecting your health. Sending you good and relaxing vibes. I hope the move goes smooth. Im excited about a possible overstock sale with all the goodies you are unearthing! I think we need a sticker sheet about “omg I forgot I had” / “so that’s where I put that” 🤣
I used to have so many of your stickers years ago! I absolutely love them! I’m planning on buying more!! Are you planning on making more of the sticker books?❤
Just sending hugs, sorry you have the arm insecurities, but I'm sending you good vibes to gain confidence for them 😊 we're all supposed to be different amounts of hairy, and your bodies amount is okay and natural. *Hugs*
Congratulations on reaching 100,000 orders! How is your sister's pregnancy going? When is she due? I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the results of your medical tests will come out good. Maybe it is stress that's taking its toll on your body. You're doing everything right to be healthy. Hugs.
I have hairy arms too - I used to be insecure about it, but honestly girl, nobody cares 💀 shaving your arms isn’t good for your skin, just take care of yourself, you are beautiful ❤️
My arms were a huge insecurity for me all throughout high-school. They were SO hairy (unusually hairy for a female) and it doesn't help that the hair is dark black.
This amount of journaling gives me anxiety. So many checklists and recording of stuff and pointless task monitoring. I strongly suggest to minimalize your life !! This is triggering for people with serious mental health problems. Not worth keeping track of every little detail in life if you lose the essence of what life is all about.
I totally respect that this doesn't work for you! But this calms my mind and anxiety. I don't think it is right to dictate what other people find joyful is right or wrong when it is in the form of harmless paper journals
Health issues are never fun - I hope everything goes well though! I’ve also been dealing with health issues this past like year-ish and it can be overwhelming but I’m glad I took it all seriously because now I’m healing ❤️🩹 sending you love and light
I also have hairy arms, I shaved them once and hated it bc it felt weird. 😂 I never shaved again, at 27 years old I now embrace it and haven’t been happier. It’s normal to have body hair and know there’s plenty hairy girlies such as myself out here. 🥹

Hehe thank you Shawn marie!
helen, i actually LOVE how appropriate it is that you "stained the cover" or your sweets weeks with chococlate. :,)
I love if the video is real, please don’t apologise for normal stuff or get anxious xx
I’m so sorry about your health issues, I hope you get some answers & feel better soon 🫶🏼
Thank you! I really hope so too >.

May you have the peace of mind and spirit that you need and want in life to be comfortable in your own ways.

Yay, thank you!!!
Your doodles make me smile and inspire me! This is the first video I've watched of yours. Thank you for the inspiration!!
Lovely arms. You be you. But so funny to put that in a title card in black and white. lol😂
Sorry about your health issues. Hopefully, it will get better soon.

I've been doing mostly personal stuff in the Hobonichi Techi (A6) for years and LOVE it!
So happy to hear this! I can't wait to try~

I am using Take A Note planner A5 and love it!
Ooooo I'm even more excited!
I love your honesty and openness so so so much! Thank you!
My arms are the same way, I’m not insecure about, I have just started to poke fun at it. And I’m cool with others doing the same. It’s funny 😄
ohh so excited to see how you'll change up the hobonichi system for next year!!

I will maybe talk about it in my next midnight journaling episode!!! Still brewing in my head hehehe

Also dealing with stress related problems now 😞 it can be exhausting and frustrating but hang in there Helen 🫶🏼
Sending you extra love for the challenges you are facing
Loved this video so fun!!
HELEN omg you are perfect just the way you are!!! We all love you no matter what!!
Love the video so far, I hope your tests come back with good news! ❤
✒️🖋️ Remarkable employment. Expectancy dad exists not closed off out of the driveway. ✒️🖋️
The Light Keepers Daughter was a great book. I did not see the ending coming.
RIGHT? Twist after twist!

Update! I’ve purchased from your shop three times in the last two days!!😂
Make it four times in three days!😋 I think I have a problem🤔
Where do you order your Hobonichi planners? BTW i love your videos! It helps me to organize my life
So much fun. New to your channel and I’m loving it ❤
Just sending hugs, sorry you have the arm insecurities, but I'm sending you good vibes to gain confidence for them 😊 we're all supposed to be different amounts of hairy, and your bodies amount is okay and natural. *Hugs*
I have hairy arms too!! You know who else has hairy arms? Taylor Swift (seriously, there are pictures). If Tay Tay can rock hairy arms, so can we 🥰🥰
Congratulations on reaching 100,000 orders! How is your sister's pregnancy going? When is she due? I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the results of your medical tests will come out good. Maybe it is stress that's taking its toll on your body. You're doing everything right to be healthy. Hugs.
Thank you so much Sherry! She is doing amazingly well! Just a few more weeks!
Thank you again Sherry for your love and support
Helen, what jounral do you use for you art journal?
Hi Emily! Mine is the stillman and birn notebook!
@@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo thank you so much!
How do you plan on using your cousin versus you’re a6 next year?
At 18:38 can someone tell me what's the green tombow color number she used ? If someone know that would help me a lot :)
❤ i loved the oink lol
I also remember when your mom started working on the garden last year!
I have hairy arms too - I used to be insecure about it, but honestly girl, nobody cares 💀 shaving your arms isn’t good for your skin, just take care of yourself, you are beautiful ❤️
Really liked this video and the interruptions didn't bother me at all
❤❤❤
My arms were a huge insecurity for me all throughout high-school. They were SO hairy (unusually hairy for a female) and it doesn't help that the hair is dark black.
OMG hahaha! Also have hairy arms for a girl. Also an insecurity. Also can't be bothered to wax/shave anymore 😅
almost like women are not kids and it's normal to grow body hair ✨️
Don't worry we don't care about your arms hair. Like at all
