I love using your videos to help motivate me. I woke up very sad today and your videos helped me. They always do. Keep doing what you are doing. I’m 33 and I love your videos. I feel like you have a maturity about you.
As a mom of 2. I totally understand you not wanting to have kids. My two kids were planned down to the ovulation date, that's how much I wanted them, and I can confidently say that it is HARD, and I often say 10/10 do not recommend. I am a helicopter mom, meaning I am watching everything, I'm so in tune, hot breakfast every morning, packed lunches, car drop off, in line an hour early for pick up, etc etc. It is A LOT!!!! If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't have kids, not because I don't love them, but because the type of mom that I am (super intentional and hands on), it is very very stressful.
LOVE this perspective!!!!! it is A LOT! People who are even prepared experience these things just as you said!!!! love love love this advice/vulnerability!💗
I waited 8 years after marrying my high school sweetheart and we had kids back to back. These few years have been the hardest years of my life and not only has had a toll on my body and mental health but also my marriage. I just want the years before kids back.
@jazzmonallen8168 I hear you, it's tough... but they're still blessings. We just have to pace ourselves. I have a boy (6) and a girl (13). The teen is giving me a RUN for my money, but I'm working on giving grace every day. Sending you lots of virtual mommy hugs 💞. You got this.
I have kids 3 and I don't even do all of what you do and they still love me! However I USE to do it and I was also extremely stressed out. So I made their father do it. And it's been a beautiful experience
I really appreciate this perspective, I always worry that I will regret having kids which I would hate to do. I want them to feel loved and appreciated and I don’t feel like I can guarantee I’d enjoy it.
Your content absolutely transcends age!!! I am 58 years old and I get excited for each one of your videos! Lol😊 Thanks, Jaz, for your authentic, engaging, and inspiring content! Yes, we love you! You are a luminary!!! Your wisdom is so refreshing. Keep shining, Beauty!!!❤✨💖
Big Sister Advice: I love watching your content. I love the energy you bring, and I love that you look genuinely happy doing this influencer thing (I pray that's true). This doesn't have to end for you ever really. Even if RU-vid goes away, you still have your experiences to share, your personal testimony to share, and the community that you've built. As a businesswoman, you can turn this into webinars, sold-out-arena seminars, workshops, etc... I'm 30 btw, and the best advice I can give you is do what you love, whatever that is, do what you love so that you don't have to be miserable settling for anything less than that. You are a beautiful, successful black woman.. you are already there. Just keep going. Love you lots! 😘
Jaz ....this chit chat was everything! 💕 I can relate to you on Sooooo many levels. My Dad passed 3 years ago, he was my protector, giver of anything I wanted, a true Daddy's girl. I appreciate you so much! Your way young than I, I'm 42. But you have wisdom I WISH I had at your age! Thank you Sis!!! Can't wait to see you on stage at a women empowerment gala! 🙌🏽✨🎉
I had to edit my comment - it put 3hrs. Not 3years... But thank you for the condolences. God blessed me 2 years after with a son who looks just like my Dad, funny how things like that work out 💕
I loved hearing your explanation around not wanting kids and it’s the first time I’ve ever heard someone talk about it the way I do!!! Love having your perspective on the internet
Love your honesty on this. Women are sort of shamed for not wanting kids and are embarrassed to say they don't want kids. I wish more women could be honest about it. Too many kids being brought into the world by people who have them just for the sake of it or ticking it off a box because of societal pressure. @@jazturner16
It’s great that you and your boyfriend both have the same views about not having children. I always knew I didn’t want to have children. It’s okay not to. I enjoy being an aunt and that’s enough for me. ❤
I’m half way through your video but I had to pause to tell you THANK YOU! I randomly came across Hailey Gamba which then led me to you! As a Latina, both of you ladies are so inspiring!!! Genuine, compassionate and truly care about seeing other people in your community succeed regardless of race. That’s something I feel we lack in the Latin community with women. There’s always an underline jealousy of I want you to succeed but not more than me. It’s so sad! And I’m like you, I’ve turned very private. I’m selective with my friends. And I deleted all my social media to truly focus on my relationship with God, my family and my career. Because like you said, you is all that matters 💓 May God Bless you always!
I work in an office, and about 2/3pm, I start dozing off. When I'm making bad choices, I will literally make a cup of coffee and keep it pushing. When I'm being intentional, I'll eat fruit. The fructose in it gives an immediate burst of energy. My favorites are strawberries, grapes, and apples. If I feel overstimulated, I just need a moment of silence before I can hop back in; so.. going outside for fresh air, taking a shower.. just take a second to regroup.
I feel the same way about friendships. I loss 2 friendships in the same year. I was friends with these girls since high school. I’m 34 and I know exactly how you feel about meeting new friends.
True faith in Jesus is feeling loss or feeling like what’s next but KNOWING Jesus is going to come through in HIS TIMING ! ❤ Know when you feel this way, Jesus is working girrrrllllll.
Love this so much!!! I'm one of the older(43) ladies who truly adore you. I have tried a lot of recommendations from you and they have not failed me yet! Keep going!! ❤❤❤
Such a wonderful video and a great way to inspire women of all ages! I am in my 40s and have always found your content very relatable. Congratulations on finishing a part of your life that you feel like your goals have been fulfilled. I honestly and truly believe God will guide you in the right direction in your next endeavor! Thank you for giving your passion and inspiration to women! ❤🎉
I’m in my early 40’s as well and I appreciate your content as well. I appreciate her comment. I shared you with my daughter. She just turned 11, and I feel she can benefit from you young and gain confidence for multiple reasons. Shine on lil sis!
When you came to Get the Motivation Boost and it was Serveddd 💁🏽♀️ LOVE LOVE LOVE 💜 Jaz, I started watching you a month ago and I literally watch and create my own homework from your videos. #ImGlowing 💋
Jaz, can you link where you got your sunrise alarm clock? My bedroom is in the basement without windows so I won't have the natural sunlight to wake me up. I'd LOVE to have the alarm clock you have 💯🥰💯
Jaz, Thank you so much for your positivity, your energy, and most of all your realness. I appreciate you taking the time to explain how you live your life and whatever gets thrown at you. We seriously need more women like you on here. It's a great influence to all of us ladies trying to live our best life! God Bless you and your day. Luv your content girl. Keep staying motivated it shows. It sure keeps me wanting to come back to your channel for more😊 can't wait for your summer vibes and look at books and routines. I Luv all of it, and I'm so here for it!
I found you from literally looking up picnics on TikTok and i remember loving that video I kept going back to it for inspo for a picnic I was planning at the time . I even purchased the jean dress from target because it was so cute 🥰 but since then I have followed on pretty much all platforms and so happy I did . This year is about self love and entering my glow up era . This continent always motivates and inspires to keep going and keep pushing to just striving towards being a better overall woman ! I’m also 27 and I’m hopeful for what’s to come ✨🤍
I always love your videos Jaz! Your analogy to a book closing/ a series ending and you know the character will live on and be okay despite her trials was so amazing. Can't wait to get to that point in life and love that we can look to you as living proof of it! Sending you much love on this beautiful Sunday
I love your reasons for not having kids. I am a single mom and my number one priority in life is to be a good mother and I respect what you said about how children deserve the most love and nurturing because there are so many people out here selfishly having kids that they do not love nurture and take care of properly. You are such a genuine and beautiful human being and I love your content! Have a great day!
I am from a very cultured area of South Florida and not when it was a "fad to move here". I was never taught about different races because I was around everyone that was different to me. Although I understood we were different skin tone but we are both human and amazing people. For instance going to places like West Virginia, that is a culture shock for me. I am a white girl that is Italian and Jewish. It makes me sad people in other states judge so much based on the color of their skin and not that content of the person. Overall You are amazing and thank you for your advice. I started following you when you did the Collab with Hailey. Stay jaw dropping!!!
Just found you loving your content I strive to be like you so many good tips found you through your God journey and I can relate in a toxic relationship and I just want to stop and making up excuses for me to stay when I know god don’t want me in this relationship
I’m in 20 mins of this video and love it. If you don’t want kids for sure don’t have them because too many people have kids and don’t take care of them. I am almost 50 and love my son but completely understand. Love that you had a “business meeting” before thinking about marriage. You have to have it. I’m divorced and it would’ve save me a lot of heartache if I had done that. But there is definitely more to marriage than love.
I really enjoyed this video. We shared a lot of the same views and I’ve probably had them since i was your age (i didn’t realize we were 10 years apart!) you’re doing well and life will be everything you want it to be 💕💕
I have some tips for mid day tiredness. This could be a sign of a vitamin deficiency, when we lack certain minerals being tired could be a reason. I follow Dr. Berg on RU-vid and he has Soooo much good information about gut health, fasting and a bunch more. Loved this video BTW. Your point about people not laying up at night thinking about you really got through to me 😁
I am a little late to this video, but I love how you mentioned the fact that you can always choose to be happy. I had a fight with a family member years ago over this because she didn't like it when I would mention this to her, stating that it was considered "toxic positivity". And I know I should have moved on mentally from that argument, but that "toxic positivity" comment always struck me in a bad way. What are your thoughts on this? Because I honestly do believe that people have the freedom to choose to be happy, but by no means is this a meaning to just ignore all your bad feelings. I just don't understand it when you try to be positive to someone, but they still see it toxic? Has this ever happened to anyone else in the comments?
This was so good, I watched it on the big screen but had to come back via my phone just to post a comment. Thanks for all the value! And most of it was from the “dome”! Lol. For context, I’m in my mid 30s, lawyer, in the DMV area also living my best life, but your content is very inspirational and it’s always great to come to and see what you’re doing and get a bit of inspo- love that you manifested through God the life you always knew was inside you waiting to be developed! Indeed the best is yet to come, especially in Jesus! 🎉✨ love that for you! Anyway, just saying, thank you for showing up for you and for us too, and I agree we can’t both be “breaking down” on beyonces internet 😂😅 but when I feel my life chaotic I remember your messy home/ clean up videos and obviously reminded we are ALL going through this messy beautiful life’s journey. I respect your craft even with the links and coins- proud of you Jaz- keep pushing! No sky’s the limit and this “wellness space” needs all the experience you bring!
This video gave me hope. I’m a woman that desires marriage but not children and I find that many men want children but I’m also not sure that I even want a man that already has kids either.
Jaz you are wise beyond your years. I truly appreciate your content and I’m proud of you for your self-awareness, especially the knowing that you don’t want kids atm part. I wish you all the success this life has to offer. 💛
Now why would someone ask you what it’s like to be a single mother 😂 that’s not even your content! But loved this video. It was a breath of fresh air to hear you talk about God, especially because I rarely hear it from successful creators such as yourself. This was a great video. ❤
Hi Jaz! Honest question for those who don’t want to have kids: doesn’t it scare you to know you’re ending both your blood lines? What about feeling lonely when you get older? Having more things to look forward to? Idk, to each their own but I’ve always wondered the thought process behind that! I’ve been seeing it LITERALLY everywhere these days
I almost cried when you spoke during your “end of the book” section, I relate 100%, I felt like my life was on limbo with little control and now I feel more in control than ever and ready to pursue what I told myself I was going to. I loved how you worded everything 🫶🏽 you are like a big sister figure to me (as a big sister myself) and I always felt like big sisters need figures like you! Ty for all the content that you make it’s been so motivating ❤️
I’m so happy to hear your perspective on kids .I honestly feel the only reason I want kids it’s because that’s what I thought completes a family & honestly the older I get & I just got married I honestly just don’t want any. I just love chasing my dreams & building with my husband .Brining a child into this world like I just don’t know ..still praying about it though I’m 25 maybe when I turn 30 my mindset will shift 😩🙏
I needed this video so much, definitely been and still going through it but I know I'll be good again with time, I wanted to ask if you had therapy recommendations? Obviously really personal question so don't feel like you have to respond, I'm just entering into my new era self and really wanting to take care of any underlining issues & dealing with loss/grief and with you experiencing similar I thought I'd ask the question :) Love you & your videos they inspire me so much to become a better version of myself & push myself for the better each day
Jaz, can you link where you got your sunrise alarm clock? My bedroom is in the basement without windows so I won't have the natural sunlight to wake me up. I'd LOVE to have the alarm clock you have 💯🥰💯
Hey girls!! The question about losing momentum mid-day is something I struggled with but I started implementing a mid-day check in using my journal. I rate my morning performance and list a few more things I want to do before I wind down in the evening. It kinda helps me break one day into 2 and keeps me motivated! I hope this helps 💖 keep glowing ladies!!
So I'm 42 minutes in and had to stop to comment. I'm loving this video. 🤎 Earlier in the vid someone asked if it is your intention to appeal to an older audience... I have to say, I'm that older audience who usually doesn't watch this type of content (i.e. glow up) though I'm committed to self development. However, I follow you because I see that this is authentically your journey and you're not doing this for show. I see that you apply your principles and get results. I absolutely love that for you and it is quite refreshing. You have even inpired me to make certain beauty purchases and have an impact on some of my perspectives. I'm looking forward to your continued growth. Sprinkle sprinkle ✨😊
I do a morning fast as well. It’s been a game changer. I also get tired pretty easily, mostly due to certain food intolerances. So giving my body that refresh period has really helped with both energy and bloating. Protein has also been the best way for me to break that fast. Either a smoothie or some sort of meat and salad greens. Gets me right every time. And… a nice cup of either matcha or black tea.
