It was super encouraging to hear you talk about conflicts with your roommates. I have a couple friends who have been in deep conflict and the piece that we've realized is missing in their interactions is assuming best intentions. It comes easier for some than others, especially when looking at everyone's backgrounds and trauma that they are dealing with. It was sweet to see that it is a core tenant of your community!
I'm really loving your content Raya. Its so interesting to see what living in community looks like. Its really making me reflect on my own life and my intentions. Thank you.
Thank you as always for sharing your life with us Raya. I also love getting a new perspective on what it means to live in community in our generation. It’s quite beautiful seeing what you and your roommates/tribe are cultivating. SN: I’d love to hear your thoughts on the following: • Setting Relationship boundaries in community? (such as a roommate walking around in panties, jealousy, sex noises, etc) • How is your house actively dismantling/navigating white privilege/racism as a majority white household ? (I love your intention and don’t want to shame or judge at all, but for me personally I wouldn’t feel fully comfortable in this community because I may be one of one or one of two). Also have you read Kindred by Octavia Butler? Please put it on your list if you haven’t. I love and am so inspired by what you’re doing!
I've never even heard about living in community. That sounds like such a strange concept, but it also sounds absolutely amazing. I've been switching up my thought process on lifestyles, so I think this is something I would like to try eventually.
the way you move with such beauty and grace is so inspirational to me, i admire that in you so much. also yasss a fellow harry potter nerd! i'm a gryffindor (:
@@RayaWasHere thank you so much! i was shocked when i noticed this name wasn't taken when i created it a couple years ago and i'm still beyond happy with it so i really appreciate that coming from you especially!
Hi Raya, what do you and Louis also do to afford this lifestyle? It would be great to know how youtubers can generate good income once youtube viewership declines.
It must be so cool to live in your community, you all seem like such a radiant group of humans & like-minded individuals. You don't see that very often! I live near the beach as well but I don't go nearly as often as I should. Truly enjoying this content, makes me feel like I'm there with you all 🙂🤍.
LOVED THIS!!! How beautiful is life - so many powerful moments to be grateful for!!!! You and Louis with the stingrays was my fave!! You two are so sweet!!! XXX
