spend a rainy sunday with me & how i started youtube 

the way that ur a directioner and a swiftie AND a book lover is just the chefs kiss

Steph’s vlogs always feels like I’m on FaceTime with my best friend

Your little reflection about stopping yourself from judging girls for enjoying something made me tear up because exactly how I feel ! The world can be so quick to extinguish female joy and I really love that you spoke about that ❤

it’s always a good day when steph posts

tiktok has DESTROYED my attention span but smth about steph’s long vlogs genuinely fill me with sm joy & comfort, you don’t understand how much i LOVE them and you! 💛✨

steph’s videos are the purest form of comfort to exist

I almost cried during the fan talk loll, bc it’s true, we are so used to telling ourselves and other girls to justify our enthusiasm for things, or to not show our enthusiasm. It’s no shock that young people end up finding so much comfort on fandons. I was a die-hard fan of the Disney Channel Latam telenovela Violetta, it literally SHAPED me and i was so annoying about it, but I look back at it so fondly, JUST LET PEOPLE BE ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT THINGS, life is too short to pretend that we dont get excited over the things we’re passionate about.

I'm a DIE HARD Hunger Games girlie. It has aged so well and continues to be relevant. I honestly don't think it gets the respect it deserves because it's YA. Katniss is such an inspiring character and taught me that your voice matters even if you are a teenage girl. So excited for the new movie!

being a part of stan culture and fandoms just makes being a girl even more fun, the shared joy and excitement is just always so pure :) and I can't believe how much you've grown since your first video. I've been here since the very first one (because you mentioned starting a youtube channel on your tiktok) and it's so cool to see how you've become more and more confident and found your place in the youtube world

22:43 this made me feel like I was in such a full circle moment, you moved to Brighton because of of Zoe and Alfie and now cause of your study abroad vlogs Im studying abroad in Brighton, thank you Steph

Once upon a broken heart was so whimsical and magical but the second one, the ballad of never after is what makes this series amazing! I’m reading the third book now! If you want to get into fantasy, I highly recommend The Serpent and the Wings of the Night especially if you love vampires!

My friend told me to watch your videos nearly two years ago because we are soooo alike. First I didn't see it but steph, it's scary how much we have in common. Like our style, Spotify, pinterest, house, book taste.... it's all so similar and makes me feel like everything people judge me fore is amazing and makes me ME

virgin river is so goooood. it’s a small town romance and the side characters are all so good

You mentioned needed to find new shows to watch -- OUTLANDER is an excellent choice!! It's 100% my comfort show and has plentyyy of romance, I'm rewatching it for the autumn season!

Okay I wasn’t really a wattpad girly but EPISODE had me in a chokehold. Like not the silly stories but the ones people actually wrote and uploaded some were so good genuinely! Did anyone else have this phase I feel like no one talks about episode 😭

the Once upon a broken heart series is one of my favorites! Book 2 is so so good and i’m almost done with book 3 now! I could read about Jacks forever honestly🥲

Highly recommend Virgin River! I love the fall vibes, romance, and the drama of the show. I wouldn’t call it a drama but there are some plot points that give a little drama. Such a great show to watch on the weekends on a rainy day😊 I’m currently watching the new season!

Omg, I’m so happy you are posting more vlogs, Steph! And I completely agree with being vocal about your passions! Like the queen said: “the worst kind of person is someone who makes someone feel bad, dumb or stupid for being excited about something”

I really needed the positive and calming vibes of your videos! After the day I had I just wanna say: to anyone who's ever been a victim of bullying / hate / violence because of their appearance, gender, orientation, race : DO NOT ever let a hateful notion 'there's something wrong with me' sink in. Trust me, it's a recipe for self hatred and compulsive anxieties later on. When we suffer and we need a break, it's only natural to think: maybe if I wasn't 'different', if I was 'normal' I would be accepted. No, haters will always find something else to prey upon. I've always had androgynous look, which was a real fuel for bullies when I was growing up. I embraced it, used it to my advantage in my acting / modeling career, I was almost the face of Leon in these new Resident Evil games :)

I was just thinking If you want a show with lots of romance….. “Once upon a time” is the most perfect show for you. It literally sometimes has multiple romance plot lines in one episode cause of time jumps.

Im forever obsessed with the harry potter series even tho ppl think its cringe now, it help me through really rough patches of my life and is a huge staple of me and my dads relationship and ill never forget how he read them to me every night when i was little and watch one on my birthday til im 18 every year. The last book will always make me cry no matter how many times i read it. Im a slytherin and im proud 😂. I was also apart of 2020 dracotok and i shift now lol 😂

what zoella is to you, you are to me🫶🏼🫶🏼 my after fangirl era was what lead me to find your channel and changed everything ily!!

steph i cannot recommend outlander enough. it makes me sob, its full of romance, to the BRIM. its so damn good i seriously think about it everyday, i cant recommend enough, its so bingeworthy.

Your vlogs are my reprieve from inexplicable stress and exams💗 THIS IS PERFECT AS IT'S CURRENTLY RAINING WHERE I LIVE!

steph OUTLANDER!!!!!!!!!! YOU MUST!!! it’s my favourite tv show & that’s a massive statement! the romance is top-tier… the ACCENTS… the landscape.. i cannot recommend it enough it’s my greatest weakness.

Outlander is sooooooo good!! Literally my favorite show along with Tvd. It’s romance heavy also

Outlander is awesome! And very romance centric (especially the first two seasons).

STEPH. You have to watch Outlander you will LOVE it! The romance is the best of any show ever.

To be honest, I am not a huge swifty or harry styles' fan but I love watching your videos!!! I could literally listen to you talk about your favorite artists for more than an hour

When you asked for show recs I was literally going to suggest Virgin River or Outlander 10/10 loveeee !!! And yes! Both have romance plots!!!

Girl I've been here since the START 3.5 years ago when you blew up on tiktok for making that "Chaddison" video (iykyk) (I can't believe I remember that). I no longer use tiktok but you're genuinely my favourite person to watch on this platform. We're a few months apart in age & I live in Australia but it's been so wonderful seeing you grow and your content is always a joy to watch.

I am literally a fangirl first human second and used to be so embarrassed for having so many interests and obsessing over things but now I have no shame. And I also got into reading from reading After on Wattpad!! It’s so special making friends that have the same interests as you.

you should get some warm lightbulbs for your lamps to make your apartment so much more cosy! the orangey light is so much nicer and softer than white light

this video was everything i needed to hear. i've always been the book obsessed girl and i've always wanted to talk about them online. i've been wanting to start a bookstagram for a while now and this is my push to just do it. you're my favourite youtuber, thank you so much for this xx

I loved hearing you speak about fan culture! Everything you said was so true and heartwarming. For me, BTS has shaped who I am today and they will be there for the rest of my life which is wild to think about

You are a source of joy,Steph. Never stop being passionate!❤❤❤

so proud of you Steph ♡︎ youve settled into charleston so well !!

i love ur videos, steph! ur really helping me get through something hard

Yayy a new vlog from Steph, watching it while I'm on my study break ,this made my day..thanks for uploading Steph!!..🤍

my no.1 comfort person. you make my day everytime you post

it’s actually insane because i remember early 2020 when i had just finished reading after being the first series i had ever read, so i was searching reviews and stuff on youtube when i found ‘lovely like laura’ then i read the dimily series and as i would constantly watch book videos so i found your romance book recs in quarantine and then immediately read the addicted series!! i remember in the video you were so cute and wholesome but it’s crazy to see the difference between little steph just starting college and you now!! i had been on your journey the entire way with you and you have got me out of some really tough times, so thank you! in 2021 i was really not doing well so i started waking up at 6AM, an hour before i needed to start getting ready for school, just to eat breakfast and watch your videos, it would seriously brighten my day! i love you steph ❤

i LOVEEE THE NEW VIBE, your videos always make my day better ❤

the thing that will stick with me FOREVER is the whole dance moms news drama/brat tv actors and influencers of 2015-2019 or something like that (i had MULTIPLE fan accounts of them) and also everyone from stranger things I went into a huge phase (not the Eddie phase lmao) last summer 😭😭 I love the show dearly

this is one of my fav videos from u ever like i keep coming back to this

please never stop doing long vlogs, i love them

this video genuinely made me so happy... i remember watching your first video when it came out and now i have watched every one since - thank you for everything, steph!

Everyone is on their own journey! 💖 I’m new to your channel but I loved hearing your story! Everything is always in alignment and Divine Timing ✨

i LOVEE once upon a broken heart. it's such a good start to fantasy! the second book of the series is definitely my fav!

ive been following you since you made your book twitter, i remember that era so well,thats when i got into reading myself and havent stopped :)

fangirling is the best💗💗💗 glad i was and still am one! i love being exited about these things, i agree about your thoughts on those young girls at the theater , im glad you didnt say anything, i remember people trying to push me down and laugh at me for being happy about things i loved , and that dimmed my light growing up... i hope the new generation gets to love love love and be themselves!

Steph your vlogs are literally so comforting I always look forward to them 😭😭

i have been rewatching all steph's older vlogs today, so this was a perfect little treat to my binge watching

The way I keep waiting for you to post because your videos bring me so much joy and comfort!❤️ love from Egypt🇪🇬😍

Steph you HAVE to watch Outlander!!!! It is 100% completely romance.....it is very very dark though (but it's genuinely amazing and so addictive)

your story is so inspiring. always & forever proud to be a fangirl

You're literally so relatable, Steph, like every single thing you said in the video resonates with me. You are like the long-distant best friend I never had before

I literally cried watching this, thank you steph for reminding me of never stoping caring and having passions.

thank you for speaking about not getting embarrassed of your passions. i love that your vlogs always looks and feels so raw and honest. :D Just subscribed!

you inspire me everyday steph❤️

This is hands down ur most comforting cozy video❤️❤️

ur vlogs remind me to be grateful for every little thing ily

It is such a beautiful thing to be part of a fandom. Being able to connect online with people and being able to just pour out your love for a book/show/movie/artist/etc. is an amazing thing. It's why tumblr has always felt like a safe space for me and been my favorite social media.

‏‪25:37‬‏ Omg, folklore is like my favorite album in the entire world, and it got me into Taylor Swift and been obsessed till now 😭

Yes 33 minutes pure perfection❤️❤️❤️💌

Your vlogs are my comfy videos to watch. These are my favs❤ I could spend a whole day watching 😂🎉😊

I'm so glad I get to watch you fangirl over the things I love, makes me feel more understood

Steph vlog are so cozy 🫶

Your vids have quickly become my comfort vlogs💕

Steph is such a comforting person to watch❤

It feels extremely comforting to know that fangirling is not something "stupid" u know... Like I have no swiftie friends irl but I've made a few online but they're all far away.... So it usually gets lonely when there's noone to share my excitement with in person... But seeing that most people go through it and I'm probably not alone in this somehow makes it really idk like a warm blanket or something u know.... I just love watching your videos so much and hope u know that they comfort me and cheer me up at the same time.... Love u always ❤❤ - Aria

Best part of my week! Literally the only thing I look forward to anymore are steph's vlogs

i love steph's vlogs so so so much

yay you posted a new video. I'll take a look right away! love you 😂❤

I am forever a fan of romance books, taylor swift, wattpad, old 2000s teen dramas and rom coms, the walking dead, supernatural ect. There are way to many things that i am a fan of to give a full list.

I felt ancient for second when you said What Makes You Beautiful came out when you were 9, I was a freshman in college! I can only imagine the Princess Diaries fan account I would have made if I had instagram when I was in fifth grade.

your videos make my day ❤❤❤

oh gosh I loved this so much!! :))) Thank you Steph, this was super inspiring!!

Ive always wanted to start a youtube channel, so i love this so so much steph you have no idea how much i appericiate you

comfort youtuber fr

Comfort personn, comfort videos, comfort vibes, i can watch these for HOURS SIS!!

Girl I think it’s finally your moment to watch Sex and the City all the way through

Steph, I love your videos! You're the reason why I picked up the Off-Campus series, the Addicted Calloway series, and After (I was a directioner and consumed Wattpad fanfics like it was no one's business, but I never read After... I also wrote a fanfic that surprisingly did very well even though it was literal trash...)! Anyway, thank you because I used to primarily ONLY listen to audiobooks, but you inspired me to pick up reading again. Flash forward, and it's a three-year strong hobby of mine that's also reawakened my passion for writing. So keep doing what you're doing and being LOUD for your passions because you're inspiring! 💗

i need your vlogs 24/7

Outlander is such a good series I love so much the couple😭💕
