i think the fact that you love your life without being an actress is more of a sign to go for it. if you fail, then who cares you already love your life and you're no worse off. if you succeed, then you live your dream. because you already love your life, anything you do now is just added happiness. the worst that can happen is literally nothing.
I can't even imagine doing an acting class over Zoom. I don't blame you for not feeling that. Because of how often you've mentioned being into acting and movies, I really hope that you give it your all. If it ever feels like too much, just know that you can pull the plug and go back to your comfort zone. Regardless of whether you become a full fledged actress or not, I don't think you'll regret finding out if it was meant for you.
the part “know that you can pull the plug and go back to your comfort zone” is such good advice. I forget that all too often but it’s a great motivator. thanks for the reminder, random internet stranger!!!
She should make “What I’m reading this month” / book talk videos! I’d love to watch those kinds of videos from her; especially with knowing how much of an avid reader she is.
When you said “life’s crazy… So what if you have to pop a few pills in the morning” really helped me bc I just got put on two medications for some mental health stuff and I was feeling really down abt having to take meds for the rest of my life. Thank you endlessly
I’m absolutely obsessed with your vibe. I wish I could word this more beautifully but you‘ve really got it all self-determination, sense for interior design, humor, self-love, an amazing mindset. It‘s just all so inspiring to watch. You also have this talent for captivating people with your excitement I was also experiencing an emotional high because of your new couch which is insane because I never get so engaged in videos. The number one rule to accomplishing anything is starting to work towards it and that’s what you’re doing now. I believe you can truly achieve big things but just with anything give it time, don’t rush yourself. Whatever is meant for you will come your way with a little bit of work ;)
I feel you when you talk about being on and off about wanting to act because I’m the same way! I get so motivated to do something, do it and then I lose interest.
I love hearing the updates about your journey to becoming an actor. Keep them coming pls! It's really interesting and we'll all be so proud of you when that deadline article comes out, which it will! I'm sure of it.
As someone who just found their sweet spot w/ my anxiety meds (it took like 6 or so months so) I’m hopeful that as you continue your journey you will lose that worry about not being enough or not having that drive to get to your dreams. Like it’s not perfect , no fear, I’m invincible or whatever BUT it’s such a better place in terms of letting those fears pass, recentering and doing the thing. W/o the dread lol. It’s exciting to see you going for it with acting & coming into your own. Also, hella cute couch!
These vlogs are my everything. Everything you do or talk about i relate to being 22 myself and its really scary to commit to the future and the uncertainties that keep me from just starting something bc im scared to waste my time. Thank you for always being real and honest and showing the balance. I always feel like i just had a refreshing hang out with a friend after watching your content. I cant wait to experience the high of a new couch purchase for myself lol
11:17 such an important message to all women out there. Male validation is draining so much energy over time. It brought me so much happiness when you said that you no longer crave it and you seem so sophisticated about it too. Your evolvement over time is truly amazing.
I really don’t think she’s evolved, she needs to follow her own advice instead she’s sadly become a female incel constantly hating on men any chance she gets.
also I just started working from home and have so much free time where i’m so bored so started rewatching every single of ur YT videos from the beginning and i’m at ur bleach bob phase so far. it’s been very entertaining so thnx sis
i think i am watching your videos for three years now and i feel ridiculously connected to you. i sometimes feel that we are the same person in another dimension or something i just love you so much and relate everything that you are going through. and i know that you can do anything if you want to. i am always supporting you on your ideas and take care of yourself ily
hey, I watch you and Im a guy :) to be honest, I discovered your channel not so long ago and was suprised in how many aspects i can relate to you: artistic soul (im a musician), some small, bitter-sweet observations on your life and well, also dealing with anxiety. Great that you are open about it. Good luck with acting!
you should do a book themed video, where you talk about your favourite books/authors/genres. or like a books I've read this year video or something, I feel like that'd be fun! you inspire me to read more! i just bought cruel prince recently and plan to start reading it soon! xox
I want you as Lily Bloom in the "This is Us" movie it's my favorite book and you would make an incredible Lily..and not just because of your new locks.
As someone who works in casting - I think it would help to work with someone who you can discuss roles and scripts with - that pre creative process will help break it down a bit for you so you don't feel too overwhelmed - you are deff right about actors needing to really want it to the point it consumes everything - I deal with a lot of actors - and the industry is very very tough - but you seem to already have the starting points and are getting auditions so you are already in a better position then most actors - but I would say balance is very important - acting is very rewarding but can be very consuming - and as an empath and a classic introvert perhaps you might struggle with the push push push a lot of actors have - but at the same time you have talent - and want to act because you love it and want to create art - which is vital. X
I’ve been watching you and your whole family for years. I guess I just wanted to say is do the things that terrify you. I let fear control me for so long. I let a lot of my teenage years go by without experiencing life because I was so afraid. A few years ago I took a chance and made a decision that scared the shit out of me, but made me better. It helped me grow into a person I am proud of being.
in all honesty, Kennedy is becoming a comfort RU-vidr for me. her videos are so peaceful and calming. She just talks to the camera like we're having a really chill conversation and I appreciate that lol and Kennedy fangirling over her new couch is my spirit animal
Your vibe is so good! Omg. Your videos provide peace and comfort... I would spend an entire night watching them! Your apartment is so beautiful! You are an inspiration to me, I love you! (Your cats are so cute)🥺♥️
kennedyyy- i'm 22 yrs old, I struggle with anxiety too! If i've learned anything from my own experiences, it's that taking risks are worth experiencing the fear and discomfort that comes with them! you don't have to be all or nothing either! baby steps is key, one first step could be just doing an audition! it's good experience to have, even if you don't get the role- at least you can say you tried it out! and the more auditions u do, the more comfortable and confident you'll feel as an actress! i believe in u, ur capable of whatever u set your mind to, just take the first step!
Kudos to you for following your dream. I’ve always dreamed of being an actress ever since I was a little girl. Well now I’m turning 27 in August and I feel like it’s too late to follow my dream and found inspo from your video to never to give up..😭
Tbh there are a lot of celebrities who only got decent parts / got famous from roles they played later on in life even with training. When it comes to acting I feel like it’s never to late and 27 is so young you still got a lot of time left to pursue your dreams! :)
Kennedy, honestly you are really beautiful soul and this shows on the outside as well. Your videos are really calming and helpful for someone who is also struggling with anxiety, love you ❤️
I feel the same way regarding acting... It's my dream but I also have anxiety and therefore "can't" go all in with it... Also sometimes I feel super content with my life anyway and I question myself if I really want it
I love you so much yesterday I was about to sleep and I was not really in a good mood. I saw a notification on my phone that Kennedy Walsh has added to her story I was like okay imma look at it before bed I opened ur story and it theres you and a link to your new vid you wont believe how happy I was I went to sleep smiling and first thing I did when I woke up was make breakfast for myself and watching your video. I was binge watching ur vids for two days and heres a new one AH.
Hi Kennedy, I’m definitely in the same boat as you! I’m 26 and it’s my dream to be a singer full time. I just dropped my first EP but there’s still so much more to do and I also feel like I have to move to LA to take everything one step further. I wish you the best of luck, I know that you will be such a successful actress! Your videos have always made my day whenever you upload ❤️
Crazy thing is when I was writing a script for a tv show, I was looking for character inspiration I found a picture of you with your blonde lob, and I just thought ”omg that’s just what i imagined” and I ended up writing a whole character around your picture. I just wish I was rich I would cast you right away!❤️
you’ve literally been my favorite youtuber since the moment i pressed on one of ur videos lol.. if you ever become an actress i just know you will also be my fav actress. you’ll do an amazing job bc you’ve got what it takes! 💗
Why don't you move to L.A? Get out of your comfort zone, fight your emotions and just go there... opportunities will find you out of your comfort zone. Join acting school or art cos you're good. You're young... and youth stays just for a while.. speaking from experience. But keep security as no. 1 priority.
kennedy ive been watching you since forever and ive always just loved how calming and confident vibe you have with yourself and im so so happy and proud that you’re pursuing your dreams of acting even though it is so scary. its such a big life decision but you will make it work if you are willing to work for it!
You're so artistic 😍 it's beautiful! P.S. I don't think you realize how much you've "got it together" compared to a lot of people. I'm 41 and when I was your age, all I did was drink and make horrible decisions. By the time you're my age you'll probably be running the world! 😆🤗🤗
I am a witch... yesterday I was really wanting to watch any of your videos and I was wondering when would be the time we were having another new one... and here it is!!!! Missed you ♥♥
Anxiety meds helped me a lot too but some always thought I didn’t need them. They’re not a magical pill, I still have anxiety issues more than a normal person lol but it does help make life a little easier
agreed! i’ve been on mine for over a year and they’ve definitely changed my life for the better but they’re not a “fix it all” pill. i consider them to be a huge help and a part of what makes existing a little easier, but meds are not the equation to everything. it’s that little push they give that counts.
Kennedys’ apartment is very unique and it’s very her personality It’s very rare to see these days everyone’s decor is the same everyone copies everyone 🤷🏻♀️
Kennedy I’ve been watching your videos for a while now, I remember when you dyed your hair pink, and watching your 18th birthday blog !!! It makes me happy seeing you get to enjoy the little things. Like you getting a new rug made me so happy !!
aaaaaaahhhhh i love you i'm so happy Kennedy to JUST SEE THAT YOU'VE POSTED a video!! i miss your vidoes soooo often that i go back to your old ones but nothing compares to you posting fresh ones!!! keep posting frequently and more often LOVE YOU BIG HUG!!!!
i missed you sm 🥺!!! i’ve been watching/following you for 3 years now and it’s funny how after all these years i still feel at home watching ur videos i’m so happy you’re taking care of your mental health AND going after what makes you happy!!!! you deserve the whole world, never forget that 🤍🤍🤍 sending (forehead!!!) kisses for u and ur babies 🐈🐈⬛❤️
I’m going into college and I’m going to try and pursue an acting career and your honestly someone I look up to , we’re so similar even with anxiety . Mine is insane and it’s so hard to get out my shell but watching you helps me stay positive and I hope to get as far as you are
kennedy pls upload more, i’ve missed you! i’m happy to hear that you’re stepping out your comfort zone to pursue acting. i really hope it all goes well, you deserve it :)
I think convincing yourself you are fine with your life can be a form of fear. Not saying you don't love your life or you're not grateful for it, but sometimes deciding that everything is fine the way it is (it's not broken so why fix it) just means you're scared of the risk to be great...but Kennedy, you are amazing
There are other people on RU-vid I watch who basically, summarized review communicate about books they read. Since you'd like to read that would be something that might fit well for you. Best wishes.
You should ask yourself if you'd be happy living your current life for the rest of your life. You may be happy now but ask yourself: 'will I be able to say I don't regret anything in ten years time?'. The worst thing is what ifs. I obviously don't know you but personally, I think you should go for it. Move to LA- dedicate a few years to it and if you're unhappy return home anytime. Because what is a few years compared to the rest of your life? At least you can say you tried and you got experience which you could also use in more local acting projects. There really isn't anything to lose but there is if you don't try
have u ever thought of trying theatre? it could be a good way of practicing+getting better at acting and figuring out if you really wanna do it for life.
Also so nice to hear someone say they have anxiety that are happy and content with their life. I feel like when i mention anxiety people say but you have a nice life etc. Yeah i do, i wish i could enjoy it fully without these horrible thoughts xx
Hey do you mind sharing what anxiety medication you’re taking? The exact same problems you described is what I’m dealing with so it would be a great frame of reference!!
I haven’t seen one of your videos in a while. I’m glad to see you’re doing good! I’ve also heavily been thinking about pursuing acting but I’ve dealt w/ so much anxiety about even starting lol. Listening to you made me feel better😭 but remember to go at the pace that’s good for you! You can do ittt
Simple things like going to the grocery. .. I couldn't relate more. Going out of the house, walking to a place, buying something, asking for an extra bag, everything's heavy. I love your videos, they give me calm. Sending love from Ecuador gorgeous 🥰
When you said you wanted to be an actor. I literally imagined you in so many hypothetical roles. It just makes sense. I can’t explain it. Wish you luck!
Lately I've been doubting my dreams alot..like ALOT. Like I have two lives, one where I follow my dream and work endlessly, and it all pays off..and the other one. This one is where I don't chase that passion and I always have to look back and regret not doing it.. This video was right on cue.. like if Kennedy, of all ppl, also feels this way then I'm not alone lol.. if anyone sees this comment, pls don't give up on your pursuit! Itll be full of ups and downs, but the world needs you and what amazing things you have to offer!! Have a great day :)
Girly I have an anxiety disorder too and it has given me so many mental road blocks in my life because we tend to think things though before doing them! I never was able to pursue anything I wanted to because I too am comfortable with my simple PA life … but the constant feeling of regret from not doing things is killing me now because I have one more year until I’m 30 and I regret so much don’t be like me get comfortable being uncomfortable blah blah and all that lol … love you do your thing girl and I hope I can see you push thought the anxiety and focus on your dream and get outta your head
