    Today I turned 76. I would have expected my life to be slowing down, by default. Instead I see that my life is merely mellowing. I've never been ambitious but I do enjoy discovering gifts and talents that come with little to no baggage or expectations: drawing and writing in a journal each morning, hiking, daring to fall in love. And, over everything, being kind. That's all I need for this good life. Thank you, Sophie, for your companionship.

    Words I needed to hear today.. betrayed by friends I trusted, confronted them and said sorry. Now, they're acting like we can still go back to what where before. Dont know what to do. But thanks for reminding me that I really need to let go of these things then focus on what I can control. Looking forward to more amazing videos ate sophie ❤

    You have such a peaceful way of speaking. I really enjoy the calm atmosphere on your videos, like there is no hurry to do or go anywhere, like there is enough time for everything what needs to be said and done and we do not need to force ourselves to fit schedules that are unrealistic and too fast for us

    Thank you so much for your video
    To be honest no one of my family advice me for these kind of life lessons.
    The reason I am blessed that I found a channel to listen the real life lessons,because of your channel it motivates me to appreciate what I have, to control my thoughts when I think too much (specially writing for journal).
    I work in a big city as a teacher and I don't match to other people's living.
    Spending too much and going out every weekend for hangouts. I would rather choose to be alone go somewhere else and spend time to myself and going to the church every weekend.
    I'm so glad for your channel it helps me to appreciate life.
    Letting go of thoughts that you can't control and expectations to other people these are what I'm working on myself.
    Keep inspiring people by the way I'm from Philippines.
    Thank you so much.

    Sophia, I absolutely love everything about this video.
    I am sitting in my apartment and trying to figure out my life and what my next steps should be. Or perhaps it's better for me to say, " I am reflecting on the next steps I choose to put in place " I am becoming more conscious of my inner dialogue and how I express myself.
    I am going to listen to this video again and write notes for myself.
    The questions you have mentioned about asking ourselves how we want to live our life are spot on. I like the way you formulated every question. They certainly deserve my thoughts and attention to better equip me on this journey called Life.
    Thank you Sophia.
    I really love your channel 🙏❤️

    love this. Co-pilot seems really cool for something I may want to use after my post-partum healing is done in another month (so can't wait to work out again). I'll have to see if the cost is in my budget.
    I am glad you were able to find out what your values are in life.
    I think expectations are the worst thing to hold us back from what we need. My mom is one who expects a lot from others and she gets easily upset when those expectations are not met, so I have learned to just enjoy things and to not expect anything from anyone, as it is easier and you become a more understanding person doing so. I am glad you mentioned a little bit about this. Thanks for another lovely video.

    When someone shows you their true colors, believe them the first time. See the good in them without ignoring the red flags. Let them be themselves without trying to change or "fix" them. Let your boundaries, their vibe, and their reciprocity tell you how much access to give them.

    Very nice Sophie even if in my experience, life come to us, the best thing is give up our preference in a certain way and do our best ( in peace) to do what ever life asking to us. I found we don t know and will never know how this meccanism really work. Life teach us and reavel us also what we prefer..that go on changing, so at the end we are not the doer even we carry this feeling, in this way life move herself together simbiotically with us and in a certain way " we don t have put so much effort to think about it, just realising this it's has been such a relief to me ❤❤❤

    I have a schedule that I keep so I don't run out of fruit or cat food. I try to sense a rhythm. Being in control with a regiment helps but not if it forces an unnatural rhythm at times. Karma isn't going to rush to your side, it may take many lifetimes, but stay in a rhythm and pay attention to it when you try new things.

In one of your videos you mentioned that you are the hairdresser for your family. Could you do a tutorial on how you cut your gorgeous hair?? Please please please!
