what do you think redecorate
reorganize hello you guys welcome back
to my channel another day another Vlog
so we are starting this Vlog Outdoors
because I'm actually headed to Best Buy
to pick up a new camera it's this camera
that I've been wanting for the longest
time by the way it is literally like 95°
out and I'm wore all
black I'm
burning okay it's my first time using
this camera guys what do you think it's
so cute and I feel like the quality
looks really good
too this is what it looks like from the
outside it's so tiny I love that it's
like so small and compact but it also
has like this little stand so you can
just put on a table like this we're
taking the new camera out for a little
spin I'm actually headed to the gym now
to go get some free endorphins it really
helps not looking at working out as like
a chore now I see it as a way to just
get free like Feelgood hormones
a
guys I'm getting in one of those moods
always during like mid year I get into
these moods where I just want to
rearrange my space a little bit just
change things up kind of like a physical
and mental refresh for myself so I'm
actually going to move my couch from
this wall to the window I feel like this
view is gorgeous
and we need to do her justice more and I
feel like putting the couch against this
view will just look I'm going to have my
boyfriend and my brother help me out
with that because this is not really a
one woman
job what do you think I kind of love
this new couch setup The View being
right here I kind of love it what do you
guys think comment down below the cats
seem to like the new setup too hello in
the spirit of doing a little midyear
refresh I really want to clean out my
closet this is how she's looking like
right now I just want to reorganize her
a little bit more and get rid of
anything that doesn't really align with
me for the rest of the year things that
I don't need that I can donate and I
kind of like to do this type of refresh
every mid year I like to go through my
closet any old products that I use
things in my desk drawer that I just
don't need or use and here's de sign to
join me do a little midyear refresh of
your
space I am for sure getting rid of this
top
because this is for sure not going to
fit me

two cats because they follow me
everywhere the reason why I'm showing
you guys my bathroom there's a reason
okay part of this like midyear reset

redecorate reorganize my bathroom as you
can tell I honestly didn't put much
thought into organizing it I currently
don't even have a shower curtain right

need of a refresh moment I bought a few
new things to kind of refresh this
bathroom a little bit let's do it

subtle changes probably only I can
notice but it just looks so much
better so you guys your girl's about to
head out by the way I'm wearing my
signature shade this is the Huda Beauty
liner in Honey beige I've been using
this liner for years okay and she's my
favorite for a reason and my YSL Rouge

go-to lip combo like whenever you see
anything on my lips it is most likely
this but yeah anyway I'm getting ready

Ashley's here visiting from Miami our
friend Lex is DJing at Mr purple it's a
cute little rooftop excited I'm excited
too let's go
me and the boys we're going on a little
Sunset
run I you baby
you guys that run I was sweating so much
it literally looked like I took a shower
all the sweat literally dried on my body
but earlier I literally looked like I
walked through a rainstorm but yeah that
feel-good endorphins thing that you get
after you work out is so real you guys
working out getting daily movement in
it's literally a hack to just feel so
much better no matter how your day is
going or what you're going through it is
so true when they say getting daily
movement genuinely is a mood booster and
yeah the day I started looking at Daily
movement and working out as a cheat code
to get those feel-good hormones my life
has changed the way that I feel right
now I feel so good I'm like I need to do
this more often I always tell myself oh
I'm going to start running outside often
and then I don't do it again for another
month and I'm going to be honest I'm
tired of my own I'm tired of
telling myself going to do something and
then I don't follow through I genuinely
want to start running outside often so I
know you guys are going to hold me
accountable in my Vlogs if I'm not
running outside feel free to call me out
in the comments okay and Here's your
sign if you said that you're going to do
something that you really want to do but
you need that extra push to actually
follow through let me be your push okay
we are going to push each other but yeah
your girl's going to go on a little ramp
because I have time today and I want to
talk to you guys you know the past 6
months like the past year of 2024 I have
been going through it I honestly haven't
been in a slump this bad in a minute and
ief opened up about it in one of my
other Vlogs but I didn't go into detail
basically this past year was really
really difficult for me mentally
physically emotionally I was dealing
with a lot of health issues so basically
I was dealing with chronic fatigue so I
would literally wake up exhausted even
after getting like 9 hours of sleep my
hair was starting to fall out so much
acne all over my face extremely bloated
all the time like super uncomfortable
bloating even when I wouldn't eat
anything and then finally I got my blood
tested and I was diagnosed with PCOS and
then I was hit with hives so I was
getting hives all over my my body and
basically that was my life for the past
6 months and I just started feeling
better a month ago and when you're not
physically healthy mentally I just
struggled I was in such a bad place and
I was in such a big slump and my skin I
was so insecure about it I didn't want
to go outside I didn't want to see
people I didn't want to Vlog or film or
make content you guys probably would
have never known cuz I tried really hard
to cover it up but I was going through
it okay I basically snowballed myself
deeper and deeper into it by feeling bad
for myself and feeling so much anger
frustration but things started to get
better once I got diagnosed and then I
was working with a doctor to help fix my
symptoms started taking medications and
I finally started to feel in control of
my life a little bit more and now I'm
starting to see the lights where I
believe I went through all this health
stuff to help me learn how to appreciate
things more and not take things for
granted that we don't really think about
every single day but also going through
this stuff made me realize it is truly
the little things it's not about having
everything in your life in control
because you can't it's about having
self-trust and trusting yourself so when
I say I'm going to do something I get it
done if I say going to go work out I go
out when I say I'm going to wake up at a
certain time I wake up at a certain time
and it's those little things that is
honestly what I realized helped me
mentally so much especially when I was
going through all this health stuff and
I'm not going to lie I just started
doing this last month those other months
I was down bad okay I was feeling bad
for myself I didn't work out I was very
inconsistent I was staying in my house
all day I wasn't really consistent on
YouTube I let myself feel bad for a
while but now it's like it's go time I
could either choose for this to be a
lesson that will grow me and push me
farther or I could let it be what makes
me give up and fail now I realize how
important the little things are and
doing things out of your comfort zone
like going on a run even when you are
not really a runner trying new hobbies
like it's those little things I realize
that make us happy and make us feel more
fulfilled I hope this little pep talk
helped it helped me and if you're going
through it right now for whatever reason
I feel you and I'm here for you and
we're here to support each other and I
love you
guys oh I'm taking a right to join L
don't
