God. I accidentally clicked on this video after watching your Marilyn Monroe hair tutorial and I just wanted to say thank you for speaking about mental health. I feel so relatable. Idk what is wrong with me at times. But I feel like alot of the things I do to myself are extremely unhealthy but it was such a norm for me. In other words alot of it from growing up with old cultures and high expectations, was basically engraved in my head. It's so funny because I've been reading books about "your inner self" and "what feeds your energy" and what doesn't. But anyways, I think you're absolutely beautiful and amazing and super super talented.
Thank you for that ❤️ I plan on making more content related to metal health and self empowerment very soon. If I can heal my relationship with myself and feel better, I know you and other people can too ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing your story - it inspired me to see my doctor to get medication for my ADHD as well. I have felt so much of the same things, so thank you and you are not alone ❤️
Thanks so much for this! I relate to everything you said. I bought the Brene Brown book about a year ago, and stopped reading after the first page. I was just too overwhelmed mentally. You've inspired me to pick it up again. I think that vulnerability is holding me back in so many ways.
Aww. It's so vulnerable and scary to admit that you aren't happy and don't really know why, but you got that book for a reason!! That should tell you that deep down you know you can help yourself and maybe this video was a sign that like you said, now's the time to pick it back up. Sending you love and strength! If I can help myself feel better, you definitely can. And it will be lasting too, not just a temporary fix. 💖 I believe in you!
I am really struggling with mental health I feel sad and depressed most of the time I feel numb. I have lost interest in what I used to love. I had my big mental breakdown last months and have several episodes of panic attack and anexity but I have been reading "You are a badass" and looking forward to read books you recommended 🤧🖤
I’m so sorry to hear you’re struggling with your mental health. I’ve been there. I’ve got some ideas for some new content that you might be interested in. In the meantime, I wish you peace and love. Do you have any friends or family you can reach out to? Sending my love to you! 💓 You aren’t alone!!
@@LizVonVillas thabk you so much for hearing me. Yes I have my family and friends and I am so lucky to have them. I will reach out for help and go to therapy. I will be better for myself. I am looking forward to see your new content. 🖤
In a world where we're pushed to be exceptional from birth, it's easy to feel like a failure and worthless when you don't immediately find success. And to expect to be successful right off the bat is just so unrealistic, it's completely unfair! It leads to a horrible cycle of doubting yourself which causes you to not try, and then you REALLY don't get anywhere so your beliefs about sucking are reinforced... rinse and repeat. Once we can say hey, wait a minute, I don't have to "be somebody", I can just live my life and enjoy my friends and family and not be rich or special or famous or beautiful or the best in my field, etc, your whole world opens up. Because everything else is just the cherry on top!! ❤️ If what I said resonated with you, definitely check out those books and @the.holistic.psychologist, they will really help!! ❤️ I believe in you!
I know you don’t post videos anymore so I’m not sure you will see this but, thank you for sharing this video. It resonated so much to me and I felt like I could truly relate to your feelings. I’m definitely going to give all of these books a listen in hopes that it will help me with with my mental health journey!
Thank you so much, I’m so glad it resonated with you! And I’ll get back to making videos soon. Lots of changes in my personal life, but it’s all good! 💕
I just wanted to thank you for sharing - this video finally convinced me to take the plunge and read the courage to be disliked, and it's been incredibly useful so far. Thanks Liz!
Thank you so much for sharing. When you were talking it felt like I was looking in the mirror. The way you described your struggles and feelings really resonated with me. I just downloaded the first book. Thanks again and thanks for all the lovely sewing as well.
I'm so glad you found it worthwhile! ❤️❤️❤️ The journey IS hard but absolutely worth it, the best thing I've ever done for myself! Wishing you the best on your journey ❤️
Oh Liz, i finally had a chance to watch this in its entirety. You are so brave and so ON POINT -- love you and very proud of you, and you should be proud of yourself as well.
Aww thank you so much, Sarah! It's taken me a long time to get comfortable on camera, it's been well worth the effort! ❤️ I do hope you enjoy them and find them as helpful as I did!
Absolutely ❤️ I felt like I was finally in a place to start opening up and I hope that doing so will help other people! That place of shame about it is so real and isolating, I don't want anyone to feel that way. ❤️ Thank you!
I really really love your videos ! I have struggled myself with allI of this and thought I would add something my pastor told us many years ago. It was so simple. He said there is a Jesus size whole in our hearts that nothing can fill but Him. Until we ask Him to fill it we will go up and down back and forth. Thought I'd share that. I appreciate you so much ❤
Thank you for being your authentic self...it’s very refreshing and helpful ...I will take your suggestions and listen to one of your books ...I have for so many years tried to find a positive connection or outlet to share and foster my creative talents and passions , changing my viewpoint I am now just patiently being open for what my purpose might be .?? thank you for sharing
Thank you, Sophia ❤️ I hope whichever book you read helps! I think you have the right idea about being open to new things. When I was younger, especially towards the end college and right after, I made the mistake of tying my creative works with my self worth and that really messed up my relationship with my creative energy, but now I don't rely on that to feel good about myself. Now I create just for the enjoyment of it. Something else that really helped me was learning to play the ukulele. I have zero aspirations to become a famous musician, so it seemed like a nice safe thing to try. Playing the ukulele and singing along brings me so much joy! Definitely keep creating for your own enjoyment! 😊❤️
i would see so many of my friends make extra money or a living from there creative creations .. and being a single mom i thought that was a good idea and went to bat a thousand times still not able to find that path ...time has past and now i am older and well not to say i have given up.. but life has sent me some major hard balls so while recouping from ovarian cancer i started picking up sewing again.. started a web site Really Hard to do !!! but i completed it and well it just sits there.. even went on etsy to sell my fabric ... because i love textiles and i am good at it and well still the same.. so now i just sew for my self.. i don't have a stash since i am a minimalist and only order what i make.. and i gift a lot of what i make so my closet does not grow too much.. i can see you playing the ukulele it seems like you designed the perfect life for your self.. i like cheering on people when they are on the right path.. so thank you
Wow, I'm so glad to hear that you're recovering! ❤️ I think it's great that you're able to be a minimalist. It's easy to get to an unhealthy mindset in terms of collecting too much, and I wish the sewing community took it a little more seriously. Thank you for sharing a bit about your life. ❤️ Wishing you all the best in your creative pursuits and beyond!
Im definetly going to listen to the vulnerabilty book on audible. I feel scared to put myself out there sometimes and I feel like something holds me back. thank you for sharing! 💛
It will be so good for you to hear it!! You're kicking butt on your patterns though, that takes so much courage and belief in yourself to start such a task! 👏 I should know, seeing as I took that course and haven't really started 😅💖
That's very kind of you to say, thank you. ❤️ I wish praise was all it took because if that was it, I'd have felt better years ago. Compliments are nice but I learned that I needed to love myself unconditionally first and foremost! Now I'm in a place mentally where I can really appreciate your words. Thank you! ❤️
Yes to this and thank you for sharing! I just started listening to Brene Brown’s podcast at a friend’s recommendation and I’ve really been enjoying it so far, so definitely excited to check out her book first. Thanks for sharing, again!! 💛💛
