...And still I rise !!!! Preach Octavia!! These last few months have been sooooo stressful for me & like you said I've been challenged in every area of my life but I refuse to give up. It's hard to keep going at times but I know God is with me & my angels are watching over me. Keep going girl WE got this!! :)
Nothing like waking up in the morning and vibing to a great Octavia B. video! And I'm the only one that hates a loud wobbling shopping cart when going to a store! When O. was taking her shopping cart to the car, the sound of the wheels just reminded me of that. Uggg
Your uploads on a Sunday have become a must for me to view. The vlogs are exactly what Sundays should be; calm, relaxing and stressfree. Thanks for always sharing with us Octavia! Keep doing the dang thing!
Glad to hear the balance to enjoy living in the ‘real life’ instead of always capturing ‘life’. Thank you for the informative vlogs with your shopping & dining choices and cooking.
Your videos are so encouraging!!! I feel you when you said you were being challenged in every aspect of your life. One thing I know for sure God is always on our side and will always hold us down!!!
Why did I get teary eyed when u were talking about ur challenging month u facing. You are so amazing was feeling so overwhelmed as well and girl u spoke to my soul.

I was thinking about you channel today. Such a motivation for my own channel and then you uploaded. I too am Jamaican. I love seeing you cook out dishes!
First time commenting on your channel, your resilience Octavia is God's grace. Soup looked delicioso girl all it needed was a nice piece of yellow yam lol Glad you had some blessed time with your mom. Self care is also maintaining your peace of mind take your time. xo
Yes Ma’am ! I said the same thing November has been the most challenging month out of the whole year! i’m praying for your strength hunn. We will make it thru less than 10 days and in counting. We Got This sis !
I was also at the MET this weekend, such a lovely exhibit. you can incorporate shots of the city when you visit over music. The MET stairs, fountain, and cool elements of the exhibit would be really pretty. Hang in there, it’s much more difficult running your own business but you will make it.
Hey Octavia, I'm from the UK and Jamaican too. We drink Port in a very small glass as it can mash you up proper because of alcohol content - Big up yaself for drinking a wine glass of it, though!! 😄🍷. Also, soup is always a must to get me thru the colder weather that we ALWAYS have in the UK 🥣 🥶. Congrats on the channel & Take care x ❤
I really enjoyed the vlog! Thanks for taking us on your trip . It was the beautiful scenery and just seeing the day the day of maybe someone who lives in New Jersey is very interesting. Plus the music was hype this video. Just starting off in the beginning transitioning to different music genres was really nice. Don’t doubt yourself you have a very interesting content.
I feel like we one in the same and not just because we share the same first name but your speaking out reality of life! I'm not active on social media either. I am learning what I want to align myself with? and what I want to detach myself from? This is helping me see what my heart desires and how I want to co-create my life along with the most high and my spiritual guides. Breathing, I take time to acknowledge my breathing now. This year has caused me to have anxiety...I just balancing it all as well as enjoying the wisdom I am recieving. Love and light to you beautiful soul! 💜💫
You’re nails are too cuteeeee!!!! Also where did you get that white sweatshirt that said “prayed and then I prayed again” I need it in my life right now!!! Love you and your vlogs as always! ❤️❤️
You’re so authentic and genuine! Love your vlogs! Would love to learn some Jamaican recipes. One of my favorite cuisines other than mine(I’m Ghanaian 🇬🇭) O, and I live in Jersey too💕 Keep up the great work🙏
Happy you’re back and well! Stay encouraged my sista! You’re strong and resilient! 🙏🏾 About that Mac battery, you can literally buy one on eBay for like less than $100 I believe. I had to buy one a few years ago for my Mac Pro and got it installed by some IT guys at my job for free!! Lol...Good luck with that! 🖤
I would love if you did a video about your favorite wine? I don’t know too much about wine, so having hearing about your favorite wine would help me to chose.
Such a motivational prayer amen keep going!! I love your short hair it’s so cute and your nails I thought I was seeing stuff in the last vlog one hand is black and the other white lol super cute❤️
Yes port wine ins typically served as dessert wine, so it’s a lot sweeter, so your pour can be smaller (or not). 🍷😃 I did want to say regarding social media, since it’s your business, then you can treat it like work. Schedule your posts for the week using hootsuite so you only need to log on once or twice a week to comment and socialize with subscribers, then Log off. You may already be doing this. Some people do not post or blog unless they are making money from it, so it can be a sponsor for at least sections of the vlog, so it’s less about socializing and more business
I swear I promise ever since I’ve been watching you(not long) you’ve given me SDA vibes but I’m like I’ve seen this or this so I dismissed them. Trust me no judgement because I do whatever but still you’ve given me those vibes and then when you said your mom was an sda teacher it all made sense!!!! Idk why but I can always tell 🥴🤣🤣🤣🤣. I grew up SDA and went to Oakwood and I somehow can always tell. Almost like an aura if that makes sense. ❤️ Edit: the other time that happened was when I first started watching NaturalNeiicy
