What is it like to feel like a completely different person in just one year?

First off, cheers while I drink my TCM beverage.

So this is something that I've been drinking after I have my period.

So after you end your period, this is a concoction of herbs to help you restore your blood and your vitality.

Don't ask me what's in it.

I really don't know what's in it, but Wilson's mom is friends with a Chinese doctor, and so I've been doing this.

I feel like a completely different person than who I was a year ago, and I haven't been posting as much about my personal life on YouTube,

and I thought it was overdue that I just do a sit down chat and just talk about where I am now, how far I've come in the past year.

Just a year ago, I was feeling like I was at the edge of the end of a chapter

and at the beginning of a new chapter, but I wasn't quite sure what it was or how it would unfold.

I spent a solo trip going to Korea and China.

I visited my dad after six years.

I made a video about it, but that was also a very healing experience where I felt like through our conversations and talks,

I was able to get everything off my chest, say everything that I ever wanted, and also ask all the questions that I ever wanted.

And going through that experience, it really was a huge internal breakthrough for me, where when I came back from that trip,

I felt the most empowered I had ever felt.

And it just felt so amazing.

I felt like there was nothing more for me to be afraid of

because no one else in my life was as scary as my dad was, as facing those big fears that I've had all my life.

And so that's an example of an experience that happened last year that kind of,

I felt like it kick-started my confidence in just going full force into the uncertain and into the unknown.

Because just a couple months after that, I put out a survey and a video asking you guys, If I were to create an app, what would you want from me?

And I got the idea of Resonance, creating an app for my meditations, affirmations, kind of like a sound sanctuary with sound healing.

And it was just an idea literally less than a year ago.

I think it came to me in June.

And in June is when I started exploring vibe coding, prototyping using AI and be like, okay, how does this work?

I learned a lot.

Honestly, it was the year before, 2024, that I already had this feeling that I wanted to do something new,

something different, and I was exploring tech, but it was nothing more than just an exploration.

And it really was about a year ago in June that I really locked in.

I'm like, okay, I'm going to commit.

I'm going to do this, and I'm just going to see what happens.

And so since June, we've been designing, developing, working on the app, and I launched it in February, technically.

The app has been live and running for the past three months.

I have felt such a change, such a shift in identity from last year to now, because of obviously how I've been spending my time.

I've been doing something completely new with a completely new team

and putting my energy into just building this new thing and seeing it come to life, having a vision and seeing it come to life.

and it really gave me so much new inspiration.

It helped me release so much of what I was holding onto from my previous identity as a YouTuber,

creator, or influencer.

And it really helped me let go of the things that don't really matter, but the things that I held onto so strongly.

For example, I'm pretty sure you've noticed, but I'm now at a place where I don't feel like I have to post videos consistently

because it's not what defines me anymore.

As a creator and influencer, if you were to hold onto that identity, creating and outputting content, being seen consistently,

is kind of tied to your sense of self-worth.

Previously, in my creator mindset, I had to tie how often and how consistent I was with showing up with my success,

with my worth, because if you stopped posting, people would stop watching and then your income goes down.

It's kind of like being seen and creating and outputting equates to survival for a creator's lifestyle.

For a while, it was working that way and things were flourishing that way, but in the past two years, I noticed that that's not the way I wanted to live my life anymore.

I did not want to force the output consistently.

I do not want to feel like my worth was tied to how many people were seeing my content

or how the numbers were doing.

And I really wanted to be able to build something that was stronger,

more long-lasting, and something that I didn't have to show up and consistently create and be outputting all the time.

Because we are not machines.

Humans are not machines.

And I think after creating content consistently for over a decade, you get to a point where you're like,

this is just a hamster wheel and I'm not going to keep creating at this rate for the sake of creating, for the sake of staying afloat.

I feel like being a creator sometimes feels like you're just dog paddling in water and you just can't stop.

Yeah, you can take a break, maybe you can hold on to a floatie, but after a while, you still have to keep dog paddling, and everyone around you is dog paddling and swimming and creating.

It could be fun for some people who are new at it, and maybe some people who are really passionate in that zone,

but I felt like I have matured past that zone of dog paddling, of hamster wheeling.

And so I really wanted to create a life where I want to be creative on my own terms, at my own pace, in my own flow,

with my own energy, meaning I don't have to force it all the time.

And in order to do that, I needed a new system.

I needed a new container.

I needed something

that could be my business where I don't have to create constantly the way it is for a creator on YouTube.

You guys have probably noticed, but I haven't done a brand deal in a year as well.

Literally the past decade, my main income as a creator was brand deals.

That's how YouTubers make money.

We make some money from the ads that you see on the video.

We make most of the money from brand deals.

I make some money from my shop, like the Artist of Life workbook.

But this, I would say like most years it's good and some years it's just break even.

It's like hit or miss.

And so I really just needed something different.

And so that led me down the path of, let's create something that can live on without me.

and let's create something that can be a container that can help people in their day-to-day

without me having to show up and create consistently every single day or every single week.

So now I'm in a place where I feel so much more free.

I feel less tied to needing to show up all the time online.

I have less of a need for the numbers to be amazing all the time.

I understand that there are the ebbs and flows in my business and in my life.

I call it like you have your expansion years and then you have your contraction years.

And it's actually in your contraction years where those are the years where you can do more self-reflection and decide, do I still want this?

And if I do not, then what else is out there for me?

How can I pivot?

How can I find what else is new for me?

What else fits the current version of me better?

That's what I call this process of consistently staying aligned.

And as you consistently stay aligned to what you want right now, you naturally evolve, you naturally grow.

Because the truth is, if you are staying true to yourself and what you want, you're not going to want the same things forever.

Things will change.

You will change.

Your values will change.

The way you spend your time might change.

Of course, there's always going to be those core, very core things that we want to have in our lives.

We want joy, love, family, friends, just beautiful experiences.

100

Of course, I'm not talking about that, but I'm talking about how you reach those core emotions that you want.

101

What brought me joy 10 years ago is not what might bring me joy now.

102

And what inspires me now is not what used to inspire me back then.

103

and I can't force myself to continue creating the same way I used to

104

or continue being the same person that I used to because I have changed.

105

I am just different.

106

My energy is different.

107

I feel much more relaxed and much more at ease with everything that I do.

108

And this is a big part of what I've been working on in terms of holding the expansion

109

and the growth in my life, like feeling safe through expansion.

110

I made a diary of becoming video about feeling safe upon expansion.

111

It's basically learning nervous system regulation, which is huge.

112

So I really have been working on that and I feel like

113

even though things are still uncertain and difficult and I'm going through ups and downs every day,

114

I have a greater sense of safety and peace and it's all going to be okay.

115

So I don't have to rush.

116

I don't have to stress myself out about anything because if it's important, it's going to get done.

117

I will get to it.

118

It will happen.

119

I don't have to be this energy.

120

I think sometimes I used to have that anxiety energy, that energy of like, oh my god, I must do this right now,

121

and this sense of urgency and the sense of control.

122

And I think so much of nervous system regulation is practicing feeling safe through it all and releasing that need to control,

123

releasing that need to act right away on your impulses and just be like, it's fine.

124

So I'm really now at a place where if I feel tired, I will take a nap.

125

I will choose not to work and I will just push it to tomorrow.

126

I just flow with my energy.

127

And I know there are some days where my energy is amazing and I get so much done in a day.

128

And then there are other days where it's just not working for me and the energy is not there.

129

And so I allow myself to not work.

130

I allow myself to lay around, to watch TV, read a book, to do nothing.

131

I allow myself without feeling guilty.

132

And I truly don't feel guilty because I know it's just one of those days and I will have another time, another phase where the energy is higher.

133

And it's okay.

134

In life, I feel like you have to experience the two extremes in order to then recalibrate

135

and find the right balance for you.

136

Very beginning of my YouTube journey, before I started Lavendaire, I was very flaky and not good with being consistent.

137

So when I started Lavendaire, I made it a point to be consistent, to post every single week, to show up, to have a schedule, to have a routine.

138

And I had to learn how to be consistent.

139

I had to learn how to commit and have a routine and follow through.

140

And so I felt like I had a structure, a really good structure for a while.

141

And then I had some years where I totally just let it out the window.

142

Like just stop, just pause everything, don't post, don't do anything.

143

and I went on that extreme of being a little bit too soft, too flowy.

144

Nothing was happening and I was feeling lower and lower.

145

I've been there too.

146

And so now I feel like I understand my energy.

147

I understand myself and I understand where to draw certain boundaries and where to let myself have freedom and ease. And

148

so that's why I feel like I've gotten to a place

149

where it's easier for me to flow with my energy and to follow my energy where it goes.

150

Because I know I'm not going to veer off too much where I'm going to lose myself.

151

So I think that's the key is that when someone who is an amateur, who hasn't gone through the practice and the rigor and the routine,

152

they hear the advice of just follow your energy.

153

When you have the energy, do it.

154

When you don't have the energy, don't it's someone might not have the discipline to understand where the edges are.

155

So that's why I had to remind you that sometimes lessons have

156

so much nuance and you can't take it for face value.

157

You have to know that everyone is different

158

and everybody has to experience the range in order to find the perfect balance and structure of what works for them.

159

Another change I felt in this identity shift is caring so much less about being liked.

160

And that's something that I struggled with for a lot of my life.

161

I am more of a people pleaser, used to care more about being liked or being approved,

162

being accepted, not rocking the boat too much, anti-confrontation type of person.

163

And now I'm just less afraid.

164

Now I just fully embrace myself and I feel okay with just being myself because at the end of the day,

165

I like me.

166

I love myself.

167

I support myself.

168

I got my own back.

169

Everything that I do, I can stand behind because I support me.

170

So if I'm my own biggest fan, why would I be afraid to express myself in any way?

171

So I felt less of that, like, oh, I'm worried about what people think.

172

Ooh, that kind of looks weird.

173

I feel less of that now.

174

I think it comes with age, more self-love, self-confidence, just feeling so much more self-worth as you get older.

175

But it's obviously also because of the internal work that I've been doing all of these years, changing my thoughts, changing my self-talk,

176

and really supporting myself the entire way.

177

And I think the more you embrace yourself, the more you love yourself through your journey,

178

You're just going to continue making the best decisions for yourself.

179

You're going to make the choices to support your greatest good.

180

And if you live that way, there's no way you will be unhappy because you are living for yourself.

181

You are putting yourself first.

182

Everything that I do, every choice, every decision that I make is for my best interest.

183

It's for my happiness.

184

It's for my success.

185

It's all for me.

186

And so I don't regret anything.

187

And I love living life that way.

188

And I realized this is how life should be lived.

189

And most people do not live that way.

190

Most people let so many judgments and insecurities get in the way.

191

That's also why I feel much more free in my life.

192

I feel so much love and support for myself.

193

And so if I have a dream, if I have a desire, I will do whatever it is to get there because I support myself.

194

I support my dreams.

195

I support my desires.

196

It sounds obvious.

197

To me, it's obvious now, but I know that my younger self, it was not obvious then.

198

So yeah, there's nothing to be afraid of.

199

There's no reason to be afraid of not being liked or being cringed because if you like yourself,

200

if you can support yourself in all that you do, in all that you are, all the ways you choose to express yourself, then you're good.

201

Of course, we all still have flaws and weaknesses that we can work on to improve, but self-love is embracing all of that too.

202

I don't cringe at my weaknesses and the parts that are not perfect because I know that's a work in progress.

203

The difference between an artist that looks at their art, like, oh, that's so bad.

204

I don't want to look at it, right?

205

You know how a lot of artists, they don't want to see their work because it's so cringe, because it's not ideal.

206

It's a difference between that versus someone looking at that same piece of art, being like, it's not great, but I learned this from this.

207

It's a work in progress.

208

I acknowledge that it could be better objectively, but this was my very best at the moment and I embraced that.

209

And there's a different energy there.

210

You're not judging yourself anymore.

211

I don't judge myself as hard anymore as I used to.

212

And when you judge yourself less, you also judge other people less.

213

You understand that everybody else is just doing their best.

214

Everybody is an imperfect human being.

215

I just feel more allowing, more allowing to myself and more allowing to others.

216

Let me know down below, how do you feel like you've changed the most in this past year?

217

Give me a before and after.

218

Who were you a year ago and who are you now and how are you different?

219

I'd love to know.

220

I also think that when you have less of

221

that need to prove yourself anymore and you have developed that level of self-love for yourself, then you can truly show up as your most confident,

222

glowing, and relaxed self in every single room that you enter.

223

And I've found that that makes you even more magnetic than ever before,

224

because I think it's that relaxed energy of just knowing you are great, knowing you have some value, some worth, right?

225

Knowing you are worthy, knowing you are lovable, knowing you are loved and loving yourself.

226

People feel that.

227

And I think naturally that has brought more opportunities to me.

228

I feel like I just used to have more anxiety and more like, ooh, I care about this, I care about that.

229

Because you care, you have this anxious energy around it.

230

I feel like now I'm able to be more relaxed everywhere I go and more trusting.

231

I love myself.

232

I believe in myself.

233

I will show up as my best self in this moment.

234

And if it goes well, great.

235

If it doesn't, that's fine too.

236

Maybe that's how it was meant to go.

237

I'm not too hard on myself.

238

To sum it up, it's more a state of relaxation, ease, and confidence.

239

It doesn't mean that I'm trying less.

240

It doesn't mean that I'm working less hard than I used to.

241

I have a lot of goals, right?

242

So I am still working towards something every day, but I have less pressure that I put on myself.

243

I have less pressure to achieve something by a certain deadline.

244

I just have less of that control, that need for control, that need for, like I must get this done.

245

This must happen.

246

This must happen.

247

I feel like I'm more flowy with life.

248

I'm more accepting, allowing, trusting, relaxed.

249

Sometimes I do care a little bit too much,

250

but ultimately compared to who I was before, very different, more chill.

251

Let me know if you have any questions for me

252

if you have anything that you want me to talk about in this casual sit-down style.

253

I think most of my videos will probably be in this style now, where it's just me sharing my thoughts and ideas on a topic.

254

I don't think I'm going to do vlogging as much.

255

Diary of Becoming, I'm taking a break because apparently the format doesn't do so well.

256

I think I will do it when I am inspired.

257

So again, the theme of my YouTube and my life right now is

258

if I have the energy and the inspiration for it, I will do it.

259

Otherwise, I have my cornerstone projects that I am focused on.

260

So I am focused on Resonance, creating content for Resonance, and promoting Resonance.

261

Number two is working on my book.

262

I say that, I won't say anymore because it's such a project I've been procrastinating on.

263

And then third is working on the next version of the Artist of Life workbook.

264

Yes, we already started.

265

I already have the colors set.

266

I might tease the colors earlier this year because I kind of want to understand what percentage of colors I should order.

267

Like, should I do more of one color over the other?

268

I think those are my three main priorities for the rest of this year, honestly.

269

That's going to be my life this year, and when I have the inspiration and the creative drive, I will share something on YouTube.

270

Thanks so much for hanging out with me today, sending you so much love, and I'll see you in the next one.

271

Bye!
