Every time I post, it's an initial flush of unsubscribes. Now you can't see it because my channel only shows every 100 subs, but if you look at the analytics, its almost always negative growth 🤪. Now I'm going to branch into more lifestyle, I'm sure it will drop again! But I do need to do what feeds my soul as well as what is interesting to my subscribers...I can't keep doing 2 makeup videos a week. After 3 1/2 years, that's a lot of makeup videos!
I hear you Lisa! I felt the same way! I can't wait to see what you do!
Lisa, I subscribe to your channel too. I enjoy many different channels and it seems a lot of you are changing direction. I get it, I can’t imagine doing so many makeup videos. I look forward to what you all will do in 2023.
When we moved my mom into assisted living, my sister and I easily cleaned out her home in a weekend. Her linen closet contained exactly four things, and all the shelves were nice and clean. My dad, who had died years earlier, had made sure his garage contained only necessities. That experience heightened my awareness of what we have in our home and what needed to go.
I’m glad you’re starting to feel better , you’ve been missed! Please don’t ever quit-
Thank you for telling me that Donna. It’s good to be missed! 🥰
Yes ! Do NOT STOP !! I love your channel Bobbie !!
I am going through the same chapter. My 50’s!! And I would like to simplify my life and concentrate more in me, my family, and friendship. Create new fun memories and re invent myself.
I think priorities change when you reach at a certain age. I just recently found your channel and I love it.
What a blast from the past. I used to watch "but first coffee" when she was exclusively a makeup channel. I stopped watching after she had kids and became more of a mom life lifestyle channel. She's definitely a great channel to watch.
I am SO GLAD you are not quitting RUclips! I feel like you’ve been my friend for over 3 years! 🤗 I’m in the same season of life and I just love all you content! I’m excited to simplify my home this year as well! My mom had to move into assisted living and my sister and I had so much stuff to deal with 😩- so I’m desiring to minimize & simplify my home as well. Wishing you a very Happy New Year! ❤🎉
I’m happy to be your RUclips friend Pam. 2023 is going to end way more simplified!
I have a hard time sticking to a productive daily routine
So glad you’re gravitating toward less expensive makeup and skin care. I’ve stopped watching so many channels because they show more and more luxury items.
Oh Bobbi, I'm sending you a huge virtual hug! I, too have been sick since the beginning of November and now I have the stomach flu! I totally can relate about the work that goes into YT and it is a lonely job. Any time you want to chat, you know that you can reach out to me. I plan to get back to reading too. Last year was a blur and this year I want to make time every day for myself. Time management is a struggle; balancing between work, family and taking care of myself. You are a joy to watch Bobbi! Best wishes for 2023! 💖
Aww, thanks Cathy! I'm so sorry you have been sick! Time mangement is always a struggle! Thanks for the hug!
Hi Bobbi! I love your channel and cannot wait to follow along with you in 2023. I am 55 and feel the same way you do in so many ways. I recently retired from 29 years in public education. I thought I would have so much time to get so many things done… organization, decluttering, crafting, etc, but it seems I’m busier than ever and I don’t volunteer or do anything other than my home and family -and I have no grandchildren yet. My current struggle has to do with what I really want to do with my time and my home, which could lead to less “stuff” if that makes sense. 🙃🙃 I love crafting, but I don’t really have a dedicated space for it so my office/craft room is a wreck IMO. IT drives me CRAZY! Because like you, I feel in a lot of ways I’m ahead of the game with organization and decluttering. So, I’m struggling with just giving up the crafting. I spend a lot of money on supplies and then don’t get half the stuff made and then what do I do with it once I’ve made it and used it for a season…I have to find a place to store it. 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️. I also love decorating my home for the holidays - mostly fall and Christmas, but that’s time consuming as well. So…those are my two things-minor compared to those who have real struggles, so I don’t mean to sound shallow. I spend too much money on makeup and skincare products that don’t work for me or that I simply don’t like, so I’m looking for what works for me, what I really like and trying to stick with just those things. I need to lose about 35 pounds (thank you Menopause ), so I’m going to focus on getting back to working out, but again-doing what works for me now. I sometimes wish I was talented or interesting enough to have a RUclips channel, but then I watch you, and the Minimal Mom, and But First Coffee and I think there is no way I could commit that much time and effort, so I appreciate you and applaud you for hanging in there. Happy 2023! 🎉🎉
Hi Rhonda I too bought a lot of makeup because I love it all, but I went on a year long mission after my husband said...you have too much product. I decided to use up product and I tracked it all. I used up like 48 bottles of lotions (some were gifted to me). I used up like 7 foundations I didn't like them and would not rebuy them. And a ton of skincare (that I did like). 10 bottles of sunscreen that I didn't like but were gonna go bad if I didn't use it up. I had a huge trash bag in my garage where I kept the empty bottles so I could take a photo of it at the end of the year. All so I could say I did it. There were other things like shampoos, conditioners, supplements, makeup and body sprays and gels. My goal was to use up product rather than to let them take up space and go bad. Many i would never buy again. I am like you but, not retired. I like to decorate but i need to scale back. I like my stuff too much👀. So it's baby steps. I need to lose weight too. It's gonna be a challenge; but you can do this.
One of my biggest challenges: friendships. I’ve always been someone who has lots of acquaintances, and a couple good friends (primarily through work). Between retirement, the isolation of the pandemic (I’ve basically resumed pre-2020 activities), friends moving away and (biggest of all) finding myself no longer in step with my old friends, I’ve found myself more & more relying solely on my husband for connection (poor guy!). It’s hard to make friends in your 60s! That’s one of my goals for the year: connect with a new friend
I’m right there with you, JD., for all the reasons you mention above. Making a friend or friends is a goal of mine. I’m 72 and it is very difficult. Good luck! 😊
I am in my 60’s and I love But First Coffee- Kallie is so honest and real. I always learn something from her. The same with the Minimal Mom. I just spent the last year decluttering and organizing. Both of those channels taught me a lot. After my mom passed a few years ago, I had two weeks to clean everything out of her home. I vowed to never do that to anyone else when my time comes. Kudos to you.
Erin the Swedish death cleaning (SDC) method is working really well for me , much more so than that kondo thing lol.
The SDC focuses on going through and getting rid of those things that you either never use or have no idea why you kept it like greeting cards.
For heirlooms you don't really use, pass them on now. For the other stuff, keep what's really important to you and tell the heirs why.
So many people whose parents, relatives, friends die end up keeping things that they think meant something to you or feeling guilty for tossing them all because they guess you must've loved it because you kept it when many times that's not really the case.
@@tracyjohnson5023 Thanks- good to know. I actually did my own decluttering/downsizing about a year/year and a half ago. I used the Organize 365 process- 3 rounds and it worked for me. I also used the Minimal Mom, But First Coffee, ClutterBug, and a few others for motivation. I did read Marie Kondo's book and I found some merit in some of what she said. I shied away from the Swedish Death Cleaning videos because at the time- the word death hit too close to home but the concept as a whole is a good one.
@@erinf4712 I love clutterbug
Im 55 and I’m struggling with menopause and the changes in my body and my graying hair which I’ve been dye free for 8 months! Surely don’t miss the the root color every 3 weeks, but unsure in my journey..
I’m also going to make a pact with myself that I quite buying and having on hand soooo much food. Like really Nicole….there’s two of you in the house and you have two freezers full of food and a back up stash of non-perishables in the guest bedroom closet….🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
It’s an easy thing to do. You aren’t alone in that. Start cooking! 🤗
Same here 🙃
Mindful yesssssss ! Happy New Year 🎉
This is exciting. Can't wait to see where you take us. There are so many issues which affect us midlife ladies that you can address. I have been thinking the same type thoughts. We are of the age where we need to get things in order, finances, health, food, possessions... I also love that you are a believer and your faith is important to you. I struggle with finding peace in this world of constant bad (awful) things happening every day. Trying to find a way to not be so anxious and feel hopeful. I think that you are moving in the right direction and you can depend on me to hang in with you.
Hi Bobbi. I am a few years older than you and I have evolved into a more mindful mindset too. I no longer am interested in the latest but want to have and buy only good quality products that work for me and I can be loyal too. Less has certainly become more! I am really looking forward to your upcoming videos!
I love everything you are going to work towards on your channel. Everything spoke to me in my midlife right now too! Thanks Bobbi!
Happy New Year!
Hi Bobbie! I'm 62, a stay home wife, a dog mom, and a grandma of 2. I have been thinking about doing everything you talked about!! I can't wait to go on this journey with you!! Happy New Year!!
You are my people! 🤗
Bobbi you are enjoyable to watch. Happy New Year ❤
I have just found your channel. Your chat with us in the beginning about your struggle really hit home. Thank you for sharing.
Bobbie I love all your videos! Your honesty is so refreshing . I’m 57 and totally understand you. Wishing you a happy new year 🎉 . 🇨🇦
I so appreciate this new direction. I’m on the same journey to streamline, simplify and gain back precious moments to channel my energy to what REALLY matters. I’m enjoying a real estate career change to a new brokerage and I’m back on track for better health and wellness. There’s so much misinformation out there but keep surrounding yourself with those who align with your goals and who genuinely cheer you on!
I love the direction you are going in! Looking forward to watching!
I really enjoy spending time with you! Very real and fun!
I was so happy I found you and I will be staying with you! I always look forward to your videos! ❤
So glad you are continuing your channel! When I became a widow at 50, I realized how hard it was to maintain my home. I ended up sacrificing my social life to keep up with the yard and house. It is hard work! My New Year’s resolution aligns with yours in a way…. To get rid of stuff so I do not have to spend most of my time on chores. I am working on being more social and enjoying life in 2023! Wishing everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this!!! Simplify and lighten the load!
I loved this video. I know both those you tubers you mentioned and I tried to become more minimal and mindful of my stuff within the last year or so. I am all about knowing great drugstore products. I have spent way too much money in the past on luxury items thinking they would do the trick just to get left down. I love how you are so down to earth and you don’t mind incorporating your faith in videos. You tubers need more bobbi’s out there. P.s. I just started following you on IG. Happy New Year!
I'm so happy you're not quitting. You're so relatable. Thanks for all you do, Bobbie! Happy new year.
Have missed you so get well (totally) soon! Looking forward to 2023 with you! My struggle would be not having enough energy at the end of the day after work to get tasks done at home and do dinner. I hate this struggle.
Truly Bobbi I so relate to your time in life. Thank you for continuing to address all aspects of midlife, I enjoy your efforts so much!
I love it!! What a great direction 💕
Can’t wait to see your next video! I love that u r so down to earth!
Hugs to you! Keep going!❤️
So excited🎉
Big hugs! I'm here for it!
Excited for your new journey! I always enjoy your content...you yourself are a sweet blessing!
its a hard gig doing RUclips, coming up with content that is original and interesting. People with 100K or more subscribers generally have very professional videos (professional editing, filming etc). Please don't change and follow the trends of other mindful/intentional videos. This is the new trend on RUclips and it too will pass. Be your authentic self this is what will build your channel. Good luck
Bobbi, I’m so excited about the change! I also would love to simplify my life. I feel so overwhelmed sometimes. Looking forward to a great new year with you!❤
♡ Happy New Year! Looking forward to mindfully growing with you! God's love, peace, joy!
Yes! I’m on board for Bobbi’s new direction.
I’m totally ready for this journey, I’ll be a simple it’s with you ❤
I really enjoyed this video and I think I’m going to love the new direction you are taking your channel! So many of the things you talked about in this video is exactly my thoughts as well! Thank you and I’m looking forward to learn and be inspired by you!❤❤❤
Omg I’m so happy your still doing beauty content! I specifically love your foundation reviews!!!!! They’re my favorite because I suffer from dry skin and I really take your recommendations to mind. Going the drugstore route and keeping it affordable is what I’m looking forward to seeing!!!! Thank you keep up the good work yay! 😊
Love this! And your captions when you were doing your eyebrows made me chuckle.
Happy holidays! So glad your feeling better! I struggle with several things in my life. I go back and forth with my eating frequently, between a low carb, and a low calorie. Low carb really makes me feel the best, but it just seems restricted some times. Another problem I really struggle with, is being an empty nester. My youngest child is 1 1/2 hours away at college and she rarely comes home. My other two children do not live at home either. I feel lost without my kids, and I think that’s were my struggle with food is affected.
I’m glad your going to stay with you tube, I really enjoy your channel!
Good job. We need a person like you.
Love it all Bobbi! I think for me the struggle is balancing my love of things with my wanting to live simply.
I enjoy all your videos. I smile every time I watch them. Thank you 😊
We are going to be doing some traveling at the beginning of this month. As soon as that is done, I want to do as you are saying, to simplify our home. Dawn, the Minimal Mom, is very inspiring. I really do like you idea of "simplify" vs being totally "minimal". Looking forward to the direction your channel is going in 2023! Happy New Year & Blessings!
Sooooo excited for the change in your channel. Your goals are just what I need!
Hi Bobbie. So looking forward to the changes that are coming! Keep up the great work! I appreciate all of your content! 💙💜
Happy New Year! I missed you Bobbi! So sorry that you weren’t feeling well over the holidays. I am excited about learning your tips and tricks to simplifying life, watching your drugstore makeup/skincare reviews, and of course your warmth and humour. You may not have a million subscribers (yet), but the ones you do have, adore you.💕🇨🇦
Wow! This sounds so refreshing to me! I’m all in girl. Plus did your nails get better? I hope I didn’t miss it and always looked forward to it, your what I got my kids for Christmas. I enjoyed that so much too. Plus I’m proud of you for wanting to be more simplified with your life and make up! Thank you!
So excited for home videos and affordable makeup. Honestly I enjoy you so much I would watch anything you choose to do. I love these chit chat style videos.
I love it!! Excited to tag along for this new and exciting journey. May God bless you richly through it all. I know I am going to get some great encouragement and inspiration too!! 💓
Thank you!
You are awesome. So glad you’re not quitting!
Very excited for all the new changes coming up
Keep it up! You’ve got this!!
Looking forward to seeing the new mindful direction with your channel. Especially with any home tips for organizing. I always have that silent to do list in my head too ! 🤣😂 Happy New Year & love your channel ! ☺️💜☺️
I want more information on simplifying, parenting adult children, post menopausal health/fitness, and being mindful how to approach socializing in your 50s.
So excited for this year as well. The direction you are taking is right up my alley on how I want to focus this midlife. I'm 53 and along with kids & grandkids I want to enjoy in my later years, I want to enjoy my life and not have so much junk to deal with(physical & mental). I'm just getting over covid which I dodged this whole darn time til now. So here is to health, happiness and simplicity!!
Thank you for sharing your RUclips journey with us. I especially appreciate that you shared the young ladies RUclips success. I have a RUclips Channel that I started several years ago and I only have 1182 subscribers. But I love them all! Your story and hers gave me the encouragement that I needed today to keep going.
I can totally relate to what you're saying - wanting to simplify and make room for the most important things! Look forward to following your journey!
As a fellow mid lifer from Yorkshire in the UK this post really resonated with me. I am keen to simplify my life and free up time. I look forward to your future posts!! Thank you ❤❤
So glad you're back; was missing you. Glad you're feeling better. And glad to hear you're not giving up so enjoy watching your videos.
So glad you are continuing on RUclips! I love the direction you are planning on going with 🎉your channel. Excited to see your new content. God bless as you continue to serve him in all that you do. 🤗🙏
Yes, yes and more yes!!! I am 57 and ALL these things go through my head.
I’m here for it all Bobbie ❤
I’m looking forward to this new direction of your channel! ❤
Hope you feel better soon! I like the ideas you proposed, especially downsizing. There are only 2 of us at home but I still have enough for 4, I don't need all of it. I would like ideas on how to recycle, donate or responsibly discard items I no longer need. Happy New Year 🥳
Bobby my name is Jenifer ! I want to encourage you by saying I ABSOLUTELY love your channel. I am always waiting for a new video and love all your content. Please keep going! As a fellow 50 something you have blessed me and I consider you a friend! Thank you for all you do ❤️
Wow, thank you Jenifer! Haha, I'm glad you said your name. I don't generally respond to any male comments - just being safe.
Thank you for continuing your channel! I so enjoy it. We need RUclipsrs in our age range with relative content.
I can’t wait for this content!
Thank you this was encouraging… YT is a ton of work along with it’s wonderful rewards.
I am new to watching you and really enjoy listening to you and what you focus on. When I am listening to you it's like having a friend in the room, telling me information. Thank You
Love the mindful shift. I also love the peaceful vibe instead of listening to the world so much.
You are the best, I think like you! ❤
Oh Bobbie, our Christmas was filled with health issues too. Along with very bad dangerous weather to drive in. Along with covid. Anyway, nice to see you again. Happy New Year! Way to start it off, new plans, direction. I'd be interested in hearing what you and your husband will do regarding monthly budget and the changes with that. Thanks, take care, I'll continue to watch and support.
I love your channel and I’m excited to go on this more affordable and simplified life style you are talking about. Thank you
Hi Bobbi! I'm so glad to have found you! I am right where you are in so many ways! Thank you for all the time and effort you have put into your channel, and keep up the great work. Now on to binge watching your videos!!!
I am SO EXCITED to hear this! I also watch The Minimal Mom and But first,Coffee. I really enjoy their channels however, I’m also in my mid 50’s so I’m so excited to see your future videos! I love your personality and enjoy the beauty content but I’m even simplifying my skincare and beauty routine. Anyway, best wishes and God Bless you!! I’m excited!
I love your channel and be of good courage… you are fantastic!!
I’m looking forward to your new videos!!!
I'm sticking with you to see where you go from here! Happy new year and take care 🌷
Thank you so much Becky! Happy New Year to you as well!
Hi Bobbie happy 2023!! I am the same age as you I feel the same way as you. I want all the junk out of my house stuff that has been sitting around for years and we don't use. Same with our budget we waste alot of money for no reason ugh so annoying. Is this what happens when we reach this age??? Lol love your channel thank you for all of your hard work.
Love your videos!!!! I watch a bunch of yt and can honestly say that you are one of my favorites along with little poet, sugar puff and fluff and palm springs cindy also Melissa 55.
This may be one of my favorite videos you've done yet! I struggle with time! And too much stuff. I say all the time I want my home to feel peaceful. That's my goal for 2023. That and weight loss. I wish you so much success on your channel and goals!
You just seem like the kindest sweetest person. I can see why that video could have made you cry. At the time I’m watching you have 53k I’m loving your personality. I love make up but you as a person have made me binge watch your videos. I have already seen we have so much in common I will keep coming back because you are bringing me joy in a time I feel down and alone. I love reading too and somehow I stopped reading. I’m checking out Kristen Hannah now lol
Happy New Year!! Love hearing what you are looking forward to try to get done in this new year!! I also have been watching RUclips trying to get myself motivated on pairing down what is in my home! I also don't want to "leave" a lot of stuff that would have to be dealt with by my family when I "go home" as they say!! You are right, as we get older we really do want a simpler life, and we find we really don't need as many gadgets, or beauty products, especially one's that do nothing!!! Watching how to par down memorabilia was the worst!!! If you don't clear it up, someone else has to go thru tons of stuff that made you happy, not them!! Ask your children, do you really want all this stuff I saved for you....NOT!!!! Some yes, but really, it means something to us, not anyone else...youtube helped a lot...takes some time, but worth the effort in whatever area you are looking to fix..and I am going to be 80 this year, yikes , but love watching you young folks..thanks for taking us with you!!😇❤🙏
I, too, am focusing on being more mindful in my home and working on decluttering! I live alone and realize what a burden it could be for my siblings to have to come in after I've passed and clean out all of my stuff. If I can get working on that now, as a mid-lifer too, it will be so much better. Plus, I want to have fun when I retire in a few years, Lord willing, and not be weighed down with all of my stuff! Great video and excited about the changes!♥
I'm happy that you aren't quitting; I was worried. I appreciate any & all content you share. Don't let the numbers get you down. You are where you are meant to be. One struggle I have is ways to increase my faith.
Happy new year!
I'm so very thankful for you being here with us !
Hi Mrs. Betty 👋! Happy new year from Alaska! ❄
I love Kallie! I’m 72 and enjoy her info!! I saw the reel!! And her tears of joy!! Made me cry too! It’s OK!
I love this idea for your channel!
Keep it up, I love listening to your opinions, reasoning, and especially that way you amd I listen to the same RUclipsrs. I love you, just as you are, and for what you will be.
So happy to hear you are going the more affordable route. To many channels focus on luxury and high end. I have loved the direction your channel has taken this past year especially with costs rising and simplifying one’s life 💜🇨🇦😁
Thanks Diane! I needed that encouragement!
@@MindfulMidlife God bless💜
I’m 42 and I started what I call “death cleaning” a year ago. - same thoughts, I don’t want anyone else to do it, it I also love the calmer spaces in my home. Not only have I been simplifying, but more mindful of my purchases and even with food. I buy everything with purpose. Ironically , I found your channel through gift guides and I love the things I purchased for my daughter and myself thanks to your recommendations! I can’t wait to see the diversity of content you will share. Your a great personality shines! Keep up the awesome videos! I’m here for them all (even though I don’t wear makeup).
You are right on heading in same direction. Very good plan for yourself and family too.
I will watch and hopefully head that way❤❤ excited to see what you will do. My struggle is trying just start for example sort and get rid of stuff especially clothes that do not fit.
Oh Bobbi. I am relatively new to ur channel but you have quickly become my top 5 I have to watch whatever u post. I love all of ur videos. Ur doing a great job. Xxxx
