So proud of you for pulling out of a brand deal when you no longer agreed with their business practices, even if it hurt you in the process. So sorry you couldn’t stand up for yourself. I’ve been watching for years and you have consistently been such a trustworthy and genuine light in the RU-vid space. You shouldn’t worry about speaking about the financials, I think we can all agree you deserve all the financial success for your dedication to your fan base❤️
Hi Louise, Complex PTSD presents very similarly to autism, but isn’t as well known as it’s a more recent addition to the ICD (11). Knowing bits of what you went through as a child, I would suggest looking into CPTSD as well. Love you!
I’m turning 28 today and have had a tough couple of years, hearing you talk about your life 10 years on and that you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be gives me a lot of comfort ❤
I will say Louise, I suspect I have autism, my partner and sister are diagnosed with autism. I’ve always found you a rare RU-vidr that I actually hugely relate to in A LOT of ways that I don’t generally relate to people. I wish you luck on your journey, whether you choose to be assessed or not. You are such an inspiration ❤
I thought the same! It wasn’t until I was diagnosed I started to realise how many people in my life are seemingly ND too. I think we naturally group together 😂❤️
I have worked with early years children for 26 years. It’s the hardest job but omg so rewarding …. 26 years is a long time to be working with children xxx
great video! it's always appreciated when creators are upfront about the business side of things🙌 i would however genuinely love to know what your values/beliefs ARE because you have been so quiet about them throughout your career. you're obviously a very caring and kind person and carry yourself with love, but it's difficult to trust how far that acceptance goes
I have lovvvveeed this chatty Q&A, I actually found you later after the 'peak' days, and I find you soooo wholesome, kind and just a real genuine person, I love your content hehe 🌷Also I totally know what you mean about plus size clothing! I always found the styles to be really dated and never really found anywhere to suit my style it used to dive me bonkers 🌷 Looking forward to seeing what you get upto in 2024 ✨ YOU DA BEST
Yay! It’s so good to see you Louise and I always look forward to your videos. Thank you for uploading even though it was a harder day for you and making so much effort to connect with us. ❤❤❤❤
Just started watching the video and I have to say how beautiful your hair and makeup is. I mean, you always look lovely and so put together but this has to be one of your best looks. What is your lipstick colour here? 😊🙌🏻
I think you always look fabulous.. I believe you should wear what makes you feel good.. rather than wearing what is “trendy” I call it “classic dress img”
ur talk about plus size fashion is so relatable, it's exhausting to find clothes when you're plus size. im bigger and baggy jeans make me look awful, so i just stick with jumpers and leggins and while i think i look nice in them it would be nice to have some diversity other than just leggings. and finding something you find beautiful but you cannot have it is just tiring, i wanna be cute and have more options that aren't just flowly tops or ones with cold shoulders or slogans covering it.
When you're ready I'd love to see the fashion videos back too. For a long time you were the only try on haul in my subscriptions that was the same size as me and I remember the day you first tucked your top into your jeans and felt good about it!!I feel so much more confident in spring and summer in nice flattering dresses and pretty skirts so I'm excited for you to feel the same too
Signs and symptoms of autism are very similar to trauma / PTSD / CPTSD. I’d recommend having a look into that and comparisons too as part of your research because it’s very eye opening
so happy you're back from your break! hope it was amazing! ✨i would love a part two to this video. i'm curious to know your thoughts on social media for your children. you have a very unique perspective as a mom and a content creator that would be very interesting to hear about 💕
I needed to hear that it can get better, more than anything Thank you for always bringing light and glitter in to the dark times through your videos and just through your beautiful soul
Fellow autism & adhd girlie here! I was diagnosed at 22 so as an adult! Getting diagnosed was the BEST thing for my mental health and self esteem - finally I understand myself and why I can’t do certain things ❤ Thank you for being so open about it ❤
My sister was also diagnosed late with autism she was 13 and yet she's basically non verbal and it was totally obvious to us Think females are so over looked
I’m so glad to see you upload more often again. I think I first started watching you when you were trying on some tops while pregnant with Darcy! I’m definitely an oldie. 😂
Just love the chatty videos! Love all the videos, but this one feels like catching up with a friend. Yes please to parts 2 and all the parts to come! xxxx
Looove the chatty videos! Whenever you feel like it would give you joy to share fashion videos again, I'd love to see those. You've helped me so much on my body neutrality journey. I remember you saying that arms and legs are just meat sticks many years ago (been following you since Darcy was very little). You've had such a positive influence on so many people and the community you've built is just so lovely! Thank you for that ❤
Just wanted to drop a comment! I’ve been watching you for YEARS recently been binging on your content! When I was planning our wedding it’s so overwhelming and I found everyone had an opinion 🤣 in the end I made it just me and my wife (I also ordered my wedding dressing online - I’m on the other end of the spectrum where I am so skinny I often end up crying because things just don’t fit the way they should!) ALSO at 34 nearly 35 😢 I am in a clothing funk! Finding clothes that are fun and what I want to wear and age appropriate is just HARD!! Haha xx
Oh how I have missed your chatty bits! Been watching since 2013, and I am just so inspired by your evolution. Also, I am oodles more productive with homey tasks listening to your vlogs, so keep them coming
Hello! So firstly I have missed your videos glad your back (yay🎉) I would be up for a part 2! So you mentioned meeting your mum at this age but what would you say to yourself maybe at 20,25, 30? Or something like that always love seeing peoples answers
I think I know what brand you’re talking about it and I’m really glad you’ve addressed it. It’s always felt a bit icky to me when you were involved with them and then it all just stopped with no other info on why and now it makes perfect sense x
About H&M - I've been seeing a lot of people talk about how they're noticing clothing stores/sizes & the models they're hiring shifting away from actual Plus Size to smaller.
I’m a mom of a 7mo old and been trying to resolve my diastasis recti recently. I still look very pregnant from the ab separation. I know you’ve mentioned your “mum tum” in the past, did you ever end up getting evaluated/go to physical therapy for it? I’d be so interested!!! Been watching for a long time and it’s so nice to see you pop up still 💗
Yay it's so nice to have you back posting, I'm glad you're here! 💜This isn't advice or a request, just a genuine question, but have you thought about sewing your own clothes? I'm struggling to find things that I like so I've been thinking about learning to make my own, but it seems intimidating!
i have autism and i would recommend watching Christine mcginness’ documentary on autism and the book unmasking autism. seeing how you relate to autism as a women and a mother is really important because that is definitely not the stereotype present to people❤️
My sister is also autistic but classes as moderate to severe and she was only diagnoses late at 13 which was wild to us as a family as she was soo obviously developmentally behind... she's almost non verbal and yet they missed it for so long
re: clothes chat, 1) have you tried getting your clothing custom made? like, going to a tailor and saying "these are the kinds of silhouettes, details, and fabrics, i like, could you please whip up something that is (literally) tailor-made for me, my body, and my preferences?" it's a bit more expensive to be sure, but you seem like you could afford at least a few pieces easily, and i feel like something like that can do wonders for one's self esteem! and 2) on the h&m website, have you tried filtering by your size? that way everything you see should, indeed, be something you could wear. (i do this a lot with filtering by XL because even though it's kind of one of the "standard" sizes, a lot of clothes only go up to an L, and i Do Not want to have that shopping experience on the regular, thank you
Please don't feel bad about saying that the income of youtube is a nice part of it! you got to live off of something, and i bet that a lot of people would love to make a living out of what started as hobby, i definitely would!
I’m struggling with my body, size and what I wear I have started the pre menopause so it’s all to much. I have started doing my exercise bike…. I prefer summer clothes … you look wonderful in whatever you wear xx
Oh my gosh, I had to share, and it may not be your situation at all, but I was convinced I had autism for the longest time, turns out it is some aspects of the manifestation of my childhood trauma. I know you’ve had childhood trauma just throwing that out there. Good luck with your journey.
Old Navy has done the same thing with Plus Size - they claim to be fully size-inclusive by doing this, but in actuality, it's the same amount of plus size offerings, just mixed in with straight sizes. So frustrating!!! Is there Lane Bryant in the UK?
