13
Okay, I'm committed and I'm going to be uploading every single week and I have very, very exciting news that I'm going to be telling you guys.
14
If you're hearing about this for the first time, this is because this is the first time that I'm announcing this.
15
I am finally starting a podcast next year.
16
I have been putting like so much thought into this.
17
I've been thinking about this for over a year.
18
I see all your comments.
19
I know everybody wants me to start a podcast.
20
I know and I will.
21
It's just like everybody has a podcast and I want to do it right.
22
be like a whole show so I've been waiting to rent a bigger place
23
so I can create an entire filming room with like this really nice setup.
24
I want to have microphones and couches and just like I want it to be
25
amazing
26
so i am finally starting a podcast it's going to be
27
up on spotify it's going to be up on my youtube
28
and there'll be long podcast episodes sometimes with a co -host
29
and sometimes by myself like the solo episodes
30
but yeah I'm just very excited next year is going to be such a good year
31
and I have so much amazing content planned for this channel.
32
So stick with me.
33
I'm obsessed with this.
34
This is Emco Beauty's watermelon lip balm and this isn't sponsored.
35
They have sponsored me in the past but Actually just bought this well actually I made my boyfriend buy it for me.
36
Yeah before we get into today's video I want to say a massive thank you to Emma sleep for sponsoring today's video.
37
So as I've mentioned I'm staying at my mom's house in Sydney.
38
Anyway, I wanted a mattress that would be super easy
39
that would just arrive in a box and all I have to do is Literally unbox it by myself.
40
I'm gonna insert a video here of me doing everything.
41
I got a mattress that was delivered so quickly I'm pretty sure it was next day delivery, which is wild.
42
It was so easy for me to unbox by myself, okay?
43
I'm gonna insert a video of me doing that.
44
And also I got two pillows and they are, I am not kidding, the best pillows ever.
45
Like they are so, so comfortable.
46
I'm obsessed with these pillows.
47
They've got so many different things on their website.
48
They also have a sofa bed on the website.
49
They've got different pillows, different types of mattresses.
50
It's just, it's giving comfy.
51
It's giving, we're sleeping well, we're waking up, we're getting shit done in 2024, which is the vibe, okay?
52
I have a busy year ahead.
53
I am not trying to lose sleep.
54
over anything love the idea of a mattress showing up in a box
55
if you guys are interested i'm going to leave everything in the description below where is my cha time.
56
That's the real question here.
57
Oh, he's on the way.
58
He's two minutes away.
59
All right.
60
Today's pep talk is don't be afraid of losing people.
61
Be afraid of losing yourself. Did you hear me?
62
Because let me say it again.
63
Don't be afraid of losing people.
64
Be afraid of losing yourself.
65
Let me tell you something.
66
Okay?
67
The more you try and control something, the more it ends up controlling you.
68
Who do I think I am to give you this advice?
69
It's because I'm a complete control freak.
70
Like, completely.
71
I want to be in control of everything.
72
And it is my absolute downfall, right?
73
It's a good thing, but it is also a bad thing.
74
And I think it's more a bad thing than it is good.
75
Because if you try and control something, then it ends up controlling you.
76
If you try and control how another person is treating you, that's going to end up controlling you.
77
It's a waste of time.
78
Think of you in front of this puzzle and you've got this last piece and it's not fitting.
79
to make peace with the fact that you have gone through
80
that whole puzzle and you've done all of
81
that hard work just for it to not work out is not the right piece it cannot work it cannot
82
and that's the same thing with like people and friends
83
and everything in your life right maybe you work
84
so hard on something and then you get to the very end
85
and it doesn't work out that doesn't mean everything is bad and life is horrible and you're never gonna feel happy again.
86
It's just something that was right for you in that phase and then at the very end it wasn't meant to be.
87
It didn't work out.
88
I feel like all of us can relate to
89
potentially in the past exaggerating your place in somebody's life which in turn ends up breaking your own heart.
90
You know, I'm not even talking about just relationships.
91
I'm just saying like, you need to stop being afraid of losing people and be more afraid of losing yourself.
92
I just couldn't imagine myself changing myself
93
around other people i think i would just end up
94
so depressed and losing my mind because i'd be suppressing the person
95
that i am on the inside who is luma what does
96
she like to do what are her hobbies how does she
97
feel about the world how does she feel about things i
98
feel like i can get along with a lot of people okay in my last youtube video it this is
99
so amazing it really gave me goosebumps i was reading all the comments
100
and you guys are from
101
so many different countries oh my god i was shocked i
102
love it like i just was thinking to myself oh my god i could get along with so many
103
different countries like I could be friends with so many of you
104
that live in so many different places that come from
105
so many different cultures I'm just not a judgmental person like
106
I love all cultures I want to be friends with everybody um
107
In the same way that I can be friends with everybody, I feel like it's easy for me to romanticize people and to meet someone and be like, oh, you're such a lovely person, like you could be a great partner.
108
At least in the past I was like this.
109
And I know some of you guys would be like this too.
110
And the fact is, you have to just take your emotions out of things sometimes and look at things on paper.
111
Almost like if you describe this person on paper, are they the perfect match for you to make you happy?
112
Like that perfect match?
113
Or are you just going to break your own heart by convincing yourself that this person is a perfect match?
114
needs to fit your life and you need to find a way to make it work
115
Because you know what happens in the end?
116
You lose yourself trying to keep this person.
117
Fun fact about me: I love my fluids, okay?
118
I'm such a big fluids person and my drink I don't know
119
if you guys have cha time overseas I don't know do people like there's there's bubble tea everywhere
120
but my drink is a large peach black tea with 30 % sugar and rainbow jelly and ice always ice Amazing.
121
I love the rainbow jelly.
122
I love chewing the jelly.
123
I feel like people do this all the time, where maybe they meet someone and the story is a little bit crazy.
124
They're like, oh, we met at the most perfect timing, you know, blah, blah, blah.
125
And then when it doesn't work out, they're paralyzing themselves because they're thinking, "Oh my God, I met this person in such a crazy way.
126
It needs to work out.
127
Otherwise, who am I gonna meet?" That's a limiting belief, We've spoken about this in the past, limiting beliefs.
128
Here's an example of a limiting belief.
129
This person doesn't want to be my friend anymore.
130
I will never find a friend like them ever again.
131
I'm useless and it just means that no one wants to be friends with me.
132
You know why I'm smiling?
133
Because it's funny.
134
It's funny, if that person doesn't want to be your friend, you should be so excited for the new friends that are going to come into your life.
135
You know what I mean?
136
You never lack.
137
You just transition.
138
That is something that I always say that I love.
139
I never lack.
140
I just transition.
141
If you leave me, I have learned now how to pick myself up and find even better.
142
You are going to be a fucking flashback.
143
What is Jhene Aiko saying in that song?
144
Bounced on his ass turned that boy into a flashback.
145
The fuck?
146
You think I'm gonna sit there crying over you constantly?
147
No, not in this lifetime.
148
I don't believe in paralyzing myself over this concept and idea
149
that this one person is the only person that could ever bring color into my life.
150
Wild behavior.
151
I refuse because it's just, it's not acceptable to think like that.
152
So if you're thinking like that and you're worried and you feel
153
that sense of urgency to keep someone and you're really worried about losing them, then you need to stop because there is something wrong and something we need to work on here.
154
that there's a scale, right?
155
And both people, whether you're friends or dating, whatever it is, both people need to respect each other.
156
Respect is so big, you guys.
157
Have you ever been friends with somebody that you just don't really respect that much?
158
and it's like not even because they're a bad person maybe they make bad decisions for themselves
159
maybe they make you cringe a little bit and you're just kind of like
160
why do you do
161
that you know what i mean like why do you keep running back to
162
that guy when he clearly tweets you bad then you sort of like lose respect for them
163
and maybe that makes you feel guilty
164
but it's inevitable then the scale is tipped
165
and you start feeling a type of way around them you start being more snappy more rude more resentful
166
and it's the same with partners like relationships if you're dating someone
167
and they're just a mad bum
168
and all they do is sit around bumming it they never
169
buy you flowers they never do anything for you they're literally
170
just there you're not going to respect them you're going to treat them like and you guys will have problems because
171
is tipped and one of you doesn't respect the other and you're just breaking your own heart, trying to convince yourself that this person deserves a place in your life.
172
Wild.
173
wild behavior you're just hurting yourself do you understand what I'm saying like you can't you cannot force things
174
that is something that I have learned so
175
when people ask me do you think that you
176
and your partner are gonna get married bitch I don't know I can hope
177
so I don't want to be out there on the streets
178
but like I cannot help how I might feel in five years time
179
or how he might feel maybe one day I wake up I hope this never happens
180
but like things have changed maybe he's not And I don't think this will happen because he's very, very much the opposite of this,
181
but maybe he just becomes lazy and he quits his job and he's sitting around and he doesn't want to do anything.
182
If you're sitting around bumming it, I'm going to lose attraction to you and we cannot be together
183
because I will not respect you the same way that I respected you once before.
184
Why would you break your own heart trying to make space for this person to fit into your life
185
when there are so many other people out there that you will respect, love and learn from and grow with rather than this person that's course has ended in your life?
186
You understand?
187
And no, it's not easy.
188
It's not easy.
189
It's easier said than done.
190
I'm not just sitting here being like live, laugh, love.
191
So we have the way we feel emotionally and then how we feel rationally.
192
That's why I always try and step back and I always say, write the situation down on paper, take your emotions out of it.
193
I'm going to open up to you about something.
194
I feel like I have an anxious attachment style.
195
I feel like I have relationship anxiety.
196
If you don't know what that is, Merry Christmas to you.
197
So glad you didn't experience it.
198
I have this constant fear that who I am with is going to get up
199
and look at me in the eyes and be like, I don't like you anymore and just leave.
200
I know some of you feel that too, okay?
201
So when I get these questions from you guys being like, how do you deal with relationship anxiety?
202
Well, when you figure it out, you let me know.
203
What I have learned through trying to deal with my relationship anxiety and going to therapy about it, reading a lot about it, is...
204
I am a controlling person.
205
I want to feel like I'm in control.
206
But in relationships, you cannot be in control.
207
And the more you focus on the fact that you cannot be in control, and the things that might distract you from that so
208
that you can kind of let go of the control and live more in the moment, the more you will enjoy your relationship.
209
I just choose to make myself busy.
210
If he's going out, I know I'm going to feel anxious about it.
211
I always do.
212
I'm sorry, but that's just how I am.
213
Maybe you're sitting there thinking, you?
214
You feel anxious when your boyfriend goes out and stuff?
215
Yes, I do.
216
Yes, I sit here and give you guys advice, and I built this whole community of people, and I give you pep talks.
217
I am a human being.
218
I have flaws.
219
The reason I've made this channel is because I struggle with things and so anyway, but I have learned to deal with how I feel
220
and I'm rational and I always write things down on paper and it's like and it's like, okay, he's going out.
221
He's a good boyfriend.
222
If he wanted to cheat, he would.
223
It doesn't matter where he is.
224
It doesn't matter what career he's in.
225
If he wanted to, he would.
226
So if he is going to do something bad, he's going to do it.
227
And me sitting here.
228
pacing like this back and forth, checking his location, worrying about what he's doing is not is not going to do anything for me or the situation.
229
It doesn't make it any better or worse.
230
It's just a waste of my time.
231
What can you do in that time to make yourself feel better?
232
What I usually do is I make plans too.
233
If I know he's going to go out, I'm going to be like, okay, I'll go out too.
234
It's a perfect opportunity for me to go out with my friends as well.
235
It's not like on some, oh, you're going out.
236
I have to go out.
237
No, it's like we spend a lot of time together.
238
So if you're going to make plans with your friends, I'm going to make plans with my friends.
239
Sometimes I don't.
240
Sometimes I sit at home and I edit and stuff like that.
241
You know, I do emails, whatever, about it and then we're both having a nice time away from each other then we miss each other
242
when we come back together we're like So happy to see each other.
243
It's a win -win situation.
244
I used to be very intimidated by confident people because confident people are attractive.
245
And then when I became one, I don't feel intimidated.
246
When I meet somebody that can take a risk, when I meet somebody that is in their dream career and is happy with their life and has good relationships, they are somebody that is attractive to me.
247
Like, I want to be your friend because everyone else is just so victim of life average.
248
I don't want that.
249
I don't want that average energy around me.
250
You ever hung out with people and they're so boring and it's just like You feel bad about yourself 'cause you're like, "Why, I'm not fitting in with this group." No, you are too big and too colorful for them,
251
so get the fuck out of that situation, okay?
252
But anyway, what I was gonna say is, I find it inspiring when somebody is independent And so you should work on being like that too.
253
Because if you're independent, right?
254
If you're dating someone, but you still make time for your friends, you still go on girls trips, you save your money, and you go overseas and see the things
255
that you wanted to see before you even started dating this person, they are less likely to get up and just leave you one day because you are somebody that inspires them.
256
You're gonna get sick of something if you have it 24 /7 in front of you.
257
If you gave me this drink every single day, I mean, I do have this drink almost damn near every day.
258
But really though, if you put that drink in front of me every single day, I will get sick of it.
259
It's the way the world works.
260
It's the way we work.
261
If you're with your partner every single day.
262
and they are nagging you they're like scared to lose you they control you you're gonna get the ick.
263
You're not gonna want to be with them.
264
Sooner or later, you guys are gonna break up.
265
So if you want to save your friendships, your relationship, if you want to be attractive, be independent.
266
You need to sit down and write down your goals on paper.
267
I do this all the time.
268
I manifest everything that I want all the fucking time, okay?
269
This is what I want for 2024.
270
I want to go to America.
271
I actually do want to go on a big trip to the States.
272
I want to see New York.
273
I want to do this.
274
I want to start a podcast.
275
I want to do that.
276
This is separate to my own goals.
277
I was my own person before we started dating.
278
I don't have to do everything with him.
279
Maybe I want to go on a girl's trip.
280
He doesn't have to come with me everywhere.
281
Like, hello, I want to do my own things.
282
I don't want to resent him and spend 24 /7 with him, and then one day, one of us wakes up and is like, Bitch, I've lost myself.
283
All I do is hang out with you and we don't do our own thing.
284
That's not healthy.
285
That's how you're going to just lose that person.
286
Stop.
287
I am more afraid of not doing things because of a relationship.
288
And I think that's healthy because in turn it makes my partner more attracted to me
289
because I chase my dreams and I'm my own person.
290
If you pull something you're just pushing them away.
291
But if you push back and you're working on yourself they'll always be there.
292
You will be their Roman Empire.
293
Do you get what I'm saying?
294
I don't mean this in a vain way.
295
And if you take this as me being up myself, go ahead, doll, go off.
296
But I'm telling you, I don't mean this in a vain way.
297
"but I know for a fact that everyone I've ever dated thinks about me to this day.
298
I know it, okay?
299
I know it.
300
I know for a fact that they lurk on my YouTube and my Instagram and they watch my shit and they care.
301
I'm not saying they want to date me.
302
Maybe they're in other relationships.
303
They'll never get over me because...
304
I am independent, always have been, always will be.
305
I'm not that ex that you stalk and you're like, ooh, her boyfriend's kinda, she downgraded.
306
No, it's only up from here.
307
I never lack.
308
I transition.
309
Like I said before, I don't lack.
310
That's how it is.
311
Take it or leave it.
312
Do you want to be the 10 % of people in this world
313
that just keep being resilient and moving forward or the other 90 % that is just so victim of life?
314
Here's my sob story.
315
Am I going to sit around here holding it on my shoulder like I'm Santa with a big sack being like, this is my sad story.
316
No, I just keep transitioning.
317
keep going up and I know for a fact
318
that I am these clowns Roman Empire for life for life because I am independent.
319
And they know they'll never find another one like me.
320
I'm not saying I'm the prettiest.
321
I'm saying I'm independent and that is something that is attractive and that is something that is unforgettable.
322
Because that means that these people that try and play you, when you bounce on them, they know.
323
They'll always sit there feeling like, "Oh, she really did that.
324
She just moved on.
325
She did all the things she said she was gonna do."
326
If I tell you that I'm going to go to New York this year, bitch, I'm going.
327
And that's something that the people in my life know, and I think that's why they want to stay friends with me.
328
She is a doer.
329
When she says something, she does it.
330
There's no cap here.
331
When I say it, I'm on the way to doing it.
332
That is today's pep talk.
333
Don't be afraid of losing that person.
334
Be afraid of losing yourself in the process of keeping them.
335
But I hope you guys liked today's pep talk.
336
I feel like this was a pretty good pep talk.
337
Usually that's the case when I don't have any notes and I'm just kind of...
338
speaking about things.
339
But yeah, I hope you guys liked today's video.
340
I am so excited to read your comments about what you guys think about me starting a podcast.
341
If you have any requests or anything, I already have a name.
342
I'm going to get some nice lighting and cameras and I have a co -host for some of my podcast episodes.
343
She is amazing.
344

345
She has such good advice.
346
I'm excited.
347

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
