1
So you probably clicked on this video because you feel lonely.
2
And guess what?
3
If that's you, you are not alone because your girl feels lonely right now.
4
Very lonely.
5
And actually one of my clearest,
6
earliest memories of feeling genuinely lonely was back when I was 18 years old and I was a freshman at NYU.
7
I remember it like it was yesterday, okay?
8
It was a Friday night.
9
I was sitting alone in my dorm room crying in my bed because both of my roommates had plans.
10
And it was my third weekend in a row spending it by myself.
11
And it just felt like everyone and their mom had friends except for me.
12
Everyone had their friend group.
13
Everyone belonged.
14
And I was just always alone.
15
And I even remember like my mom calling me and asking, how's college?
16
How are you enjoying it?
17
And I lied to her.
18
I was like, I love it here.
19
I love it here.
20
I have so many friends.
21
It was all a lie.
22
And it was because I didn't want to admit to her that I felt lonely.
23
And you know, for context,
24
my parents are both Korean immigrants.
25
They literally sacrificed everything for me to be able to go to school.
26
And so the guilt of telling them
27
that I was actually struggling in school almost felt heavier than the loneliness itself I remember I would eat lunch alone.
28
I would walk to class alone I sat alone in my
29
dorm room feeling like everyone else had found their people
30
and I just didn't and you know Your girl knows what it feels like to feel lonely.
31
Okay, it's not fun It sucks and at 18 years old
32
that moment felt like the end of the world and I actually just turned 26 So your girl is grown.
33
I have the friends that i've always wanted.
34
I have my dream career.
35
I have my dream apartment I'm finally financially stable yet.
36
I still feel lonely at times.
37
I feel very lonely right now.
38
And that's actually why I wanted to make this video to help you better understand why you may feel lonely
39
and to remind you that what you're feeling right now doesn't mean that there's something wrong with you.
40
And if you use this lonely season,
41
right, you can actually transform yourself into the best,
42
most confident version of yourself.
43

46
Okay.
47

48
Go subscribe right now.
49
By the way, how are we liking this new podcast setup?
50
We're trying something new.
51
I'm holding the mic this time.
52
Let me know how you guys feel about it.
53
I read all the comments.
54
So what loneliness feels like.
55
So loneliness is that feeling that you get when you're by yourself and you just don't feel like you're at peace.
56
And honestly, the best way I can describe it is it's like a sinking feeling.
57
It's like a pit in your stomach.
58
And it almost feels like you're drowning.
59
You're like drowning in water,
60
but no one else sees.
61
It's like a heavy feeling in your chest.
62
Like for me, sometimes when I feel lonely,
63
it literally feels like my stomach is empty,
64
like so empty that it's almost painful.
65
I found this photo that actually depicts the feeling really well.
66
And actually, fun fact, feeling lonely doesn't mean you're actually physically alone.
67
It could be that heavy feeling you get when the day is almost done,
68
when your day is going by and you just don't know what to do with yourself,
69
when you're constantly checking your phone but no one is texting or calling you,
70
when you want to talk to somebody but you feel like you have no one to reach out to.
71
Sometimes feeling lonely shows up as you constantly scrolling on your phone
72
because maybe you're bored because maybe sitting with your own thoughts is just uncomfortable.
73
It also looks like staying super busy so you don't have to feel the lonely feeling.
74
And sometimes it's really confusing too.
75
Sometimes your life is going well, it's going fine.
76
And you wonder like, why do I feel lonely when my life is fine?
77
And then maybe you start to feel guilty for feeling lonely.
78
So that's what basically loneliness feels like, at least to me.
79
So for me, when I was 18 years old,
80
feeling super lonely every single day,
81
I always thought it was just because I was struggling to make friends in college.
82
But thinking about it now,
83
there were so many layers to it, girl.
84
Like, first of all, NYU is a pretty prestigious school.
85
And majority of the people that go there come from very wealthy backgrounds.
86
You know, private school, boarding school.
87
I come from a lower income background, public school education.
88
My parents were both working class immigrants.
89
And so I already went to NYU feeling like less than.
90
And also, when your girl first got there,
91
tell me why everyone and their mom already had their friend groups already.
92
Because apparently NYU had a Facebook group where you could join and literally meet people before school even started.
93
No one told me about this Facebook group.
94
okay so everyone came to school first day school everyone knew everybody
95
and i was looking around like hello like how do you all know each other
96
and i remember there was this one girl group
97
that it was just like the prettiest girls they were dressed like fabulous
98
and i remember i went up to them
99
and i was trying to make friends with them i was being friendly with them
100
and they actually invited me out to eat
101
which i was like yay i finally made my friends tell me why
102
when i get back to my dorm room i look up the restaurant
103
that they're trying to go to three dollar signs I was like,
104
um, I was a broke college student.
105
Okay.
106
And I do not come from money.
107
Like $3 signs is crazy.
108
So I texted them that I didn't feel well just to make an excuse.
109
So I didn't have to go.
110
And after I skipped out on that meal,
111
they never invited me again.
112
And they ended up being close all throughout college.
113
And after that moment, I felt even more lonely.
114
Why you feel lonely.
115
So actually a lot of times loneliness happens when you're in the middle of a transition season when you're growing,
116
when you're healing, you're outgrowing old versions of yourself.
117
Maybe you're outgrowing some friends,
118
people that you were friends with for years.
119
Maybe you don't relate to them anymore.
120
And that's actually really normal.
121
You know, when you're friends with people,
122
everyone is going through different stages of their life.
123
You know, especially during like the college years.
124
I remember like some people were going to college.
125
Some people were getting married, having kids.
126
Other people were like partying all the time.
127
There's other people already working full time.
128
So you often feel loneliness when things are changing around you.
129
And when things are changing, it feels uncomfortable.
130
It feels unfamiliar.
131
And you might not understand why you feel lonely,
132
but it makes sense, you know?
133
So why I feel lonely now.
134
So I wanted to kind of open up about why I am actually struggling with loneliness right now,
135
because I thought, you know,
136
the last time I felt super lonely was when I was 18 years old and was struggling to make friends in college.
137
Your girl is grown now.
138
I'm 26 and I still feel lonely.
139
And I had to figure out why I felt lonely
140
because even though I've come such a long way from that 18 year old version of myself that,
141
you know, was super insecure,
142
struggled to make friends, was a broke college student, like had zero confidence.
143
You know, like on paper,
144
my life looks a lot better now.
145
Okay.
146
It looks like your girl's up.
147
I can eat at the restaurants with the $3 signs.
148
Now I have the career of my dreams,
149
the career that I used to dream every single day about.
150
I have amazing friends.
151
I have an amazing supportive community of a million of you who give me so much life and purpose.
152
I live in a beautiful apartment in my dream city in New York city.
153
I have an amazing family.
154
So from the outside, you know,
155
it probably looks like I have it all.
156
Like I even had to ask myself,
157
like, why do I even feel lonely right now?
158
You have everything that you've ever asked God for right now.
159
I'm actually in a healing season or transition season.
160
Last year, I got out of a five-year relationship.
161
And when you go from spending every single day with a person,
162
building your entire future around a person,
163
giving so much of yourself to another person to all of a sudden trying to navigate life alone,
164
spending every day alone, trying to be alone with yourself and your thoughts,
165
trying to comfort and soothe yourself.
166
Like it's been a loneliness that I've never experienced before.
167
Also at the same time that I got out of that relationship,
168
I made the decision to cut off my dad and he was an abusive alcoholic my entire life.
169
We were never close, but mourning the relationship I never got to have with my dad.
170
And also mourning the fact that I never got the dad that I deserved and understanding as an adult,
171
how he has destroyed and negatively affected our family.
172
That has been another experience of loneliness that I've never felt before.
173
And just processing how both of those relationships were not healthy for me all of
174
that together has added an immense amount of loneliness into my life
175
that i'm not gonna lie i was not prepared for
176
and you know i'm doing the right things now like i'm
177
in therapy i'm in my word i'm praying every single day
178
i'm really prioritizing my healing i'm setting boundaries i know i'm doing all the right things
179
but even in all that and doing all the right things i still feel really lonely
180
and it's really hard for me to admit but last year
181
when i was going through all this a bunch of you guys didn't even know
182
because I was trying to escape the loneliness.
183
Okay.
184
I didn't want you guys to see me struggling.
185
I didn't want to show anybody that I was struggling and feeling lonely.
186
So my instinct was to escape.
187
Okay.
188
I was traveling everywhere around the world.
189
Like literally within a few months,
190
I went from going to Italy, Portugal, London, Canada.
191
I was staying super busy with work.
192
I was still posting all the time.
193
I was surrounding myself with all my friends,
194
going out, grinding at my work.
195
And I did all of that to help me feel less lonely.
196
And it worked temporarily.
197
But guys at the end of it it all left me feeling even more lonely
198
and even more empty
199
So even though on the outside still my life might look like it's up internally I'm telling you guys every single day.
200
I've been battling loneliness
201
But let me tell you guys why I know feeling lonely
202
as uncomfortable as it is as much as I hate it
203
is essential for me right now Especially in my healing season my self-worth
204
and my standards are now rising faster than my loneliness feeling
205
And that just proved to me that loneliness is an essential part of your healing journey So girl,
206
I know how much it sucks.
207
Okay, the feeling is not fun.
208
Feeling lonely, it sucks.
209
Like it really does.
210
It really does.
211
My instinct is just to want to escape it,
212
but sitting in it is the hard thing.
213
It's easy to distract yourself with your friends,
214
to go travel, to keep yourself busy with work,
215
to go out partying, to jump into another relationship,
216
to not think about it.
217
But sitting in your thoughts and your loneliness and feeling the discomfort,
218
that is where you're going to grow the most.
219
And I know this
220
because I've had the most growth in the past month where I've sat in the loneliness and embraced it.
221
Seek the support you need.
222
So, you know, from dealing with a five-year breakup and,
223
and cutting off my dad in the past six months,
224
I tried the method of distracting.
225
You know, I kept telling myself to push through,
226
push through to be strong, to continue on.
227
And eventually I just hit my breaking point where I finally realized I couldn't distract myself anymore.
228
I don't need to push harder.
229
I don't need to work harder.
230
I need support.
231
And that's why I'm so grateful that this video is sponsored by BetterHelp.
232
And I just like love their mission.
233
And this past month, especially I've been prioritizing my healing and just growing and started focusing on myself and understanding myself.
234
And therapy has played a huge part in that guys.
235
What I love about BetterHelp is how simple it is to get started.
236
After signing up, you just fill out a questionnaire
237
and they match you with a licensed therapist based on your preferences and their clinical experience.
238
And if the therapist isn't the right fit for you,
239
you can switch at any time with no extra cost,
240
which is honestly so helpful because I know how intimidating starting therapy can be.
241
Sessions can be done by video phone or live chat.
242
So if it's your life,
243
even if things get busy,
244
therapy has helped me so much.
245
It's helped me understand myself better,
246
my emotions, to build self-trust,
247
self-worth instead of just running on pressure.

251
So this is probably no surprise,
252
but social media makes our loneliness so much worse.
253
Studies have consistently shown that the more time people spend on social media,
254
the lonelier they report feeling,
255
especially when they're using it to stay connected,
256
which funny enough, that is the point of social media to help us feel more connected.
257
But the irony is that it's making us feel lonelier.
258
And research across adults of different ages found that frequent social media use is strongly associated with loneliness,
259
even when people have jobs,
260
friends, and have full lives.
261
And just think about it.
262
Every single time you scroll and scroll,
263
you're being fed everyone else's lives,
264
everyone else's highlight reels, their perfect photos,
265
their perfect moments, their perfect vacation.
266
And it makes you feel lonelier.
267
It makes you feel isolated.
268
And then you start constantly comparing yourself to everyone else's life that you see on social media.
269
And because you're only seeing the perfect moments,
270
you might feel like your life is not good enough.
271
And I am proof of that, okay?
272
When I was going through all my hormonal imbalances and acne blew up all over my face,
273
I was barely leaving my apartment.
274
I spent every single weekend inside.
275
I never wanted to go outside.
276
I felt horrible about myself.
277
My self-esteem was like to the ground.
278
I felt so lonely.
279
And to escape that loneliness,
280
I would start scrolling on my phone.
281
And one hour would turn to two, two, three.
282
And then all of a sudden my whole day would be gone from just scrolling.
283
And instead of helping me feel more connected with other people and feel less lonely,
284
it made me feel worse.
285
I'd finish scrolling and I'd feel even more lonely,
286
even more depressed, even more insecure.
287
And then on top of that,
288
I would feel even worse about myself because I wasted all my time just scrolling and scrolling.
289
And so it was just like this negative cycle loop.
290
I would feel lonely, then scroll to escape,
291
feel worse, then scroll more.
292
And look, I've tried to do screen time limits.
293
I tried to do social media cleanses.
294
And honestly, none of that really worked for me long-term.
295
I just realized that I needed to be intentional with where my attention was going.
296
So I started using tools like journaling every single morning, praying every day.
297
I also created Cove, which is my app that I literally created to document my own routines,
298
my thoughts, my moments, my progress.
299
So using tools like journaling,
300
like Cove, that are intentional tools to help you focus back on yourself instead of focusing on other people on social media,
301
that has been a game changer for helping me not doom scroll anymore.
302
And it's helped me feel less lonely.
303
You're alone, but not lonely.
304
So another big lesson I've learned is that being alone doesn't automatically mean you're lonely.
305
Like before, whenever I'd feel lonely,
306
I thought that the solution was to never be alone,
307
to always have plans, to always have people around,
308
to always keep myself busy.
309
But what I've realized is being alone is so important because
310
when you're alone with your thoughts and yourself
311
and you have to sit with yourself and you learn to be at peace with that feeling,
312
you don't wait for someone else to make you feel whole.
313
You don't settle for less than what you deserve.
314
You're not scrolling and scrolling to fill the silence.
315
You're not chasing plans and friends just to avoid your thoughts.
316
You start paying attention to your own life again, to yourself.
317
You start building confidence.
318
You start growing.
319
And that's why it's actually really important to understand the difference between feeling lonely and being alone because you could feel lonely,
320
but you could enjoy being alone.
321
And if you're in a season right now where you're spending more time with yourself,
322
you feel a lot more lonely than usual.
323
That does not mean your life is over,
324
that you are unwanted, that you are unworthy.
325
It is actually quite the opposite.
326
You are learning self-worth.
327
You are learning to love yourself.
328
You are learning to be comfortable with yourself.
329
You are learning to love yourself.
330
I'm telling you, learning how to be with yourself is a skill that will change everything for you.
331
It will change you.
332
You will radiate confidence.
333
You'll be the best version that you've ever been.
334
Like this is just a season and it is temporary because let me tell you,
335
after the season, you are about to grow and glow up like you've never seen before.
336
There are people who care even if it doesn't feel like it.
337
So when you're feeling lonely,
338
sometimes your brain like lies to you and it makes you feel like no one else around you cares,
339
that you're just invisible, that you don't matter,
340
that you're unworthy, that you're not chosen,
341
that no one wants you.
342
But that is just not the truth, okay?
343
Loneliness can quite literally just distort your perspective.
344
And a perfect example of this is actually back freshman year when I was 18 and I was struggling to make friends.
345
I was so lonely spending every single weekend alone.
346
It was actually one of the friday nights
347
that I spent alone in my dorm room and that night in particular I was over it.
348
I was like I cannot spend another friday night alone
349
So at the time my parents were not home They were in korea
350
and so I took a bus from new york to new jersey to my parents apartment
351
Because that's how lonely I was I would rather be alone
352
in my parents apartment in jersey than alone in my dorm room in NYU Well,
353
my older brother june who was also in college at the time He's two years older than me that day.
354
He decided to stop by my parents apartment I think to pick up something
355
and he opened the door thinking that no one was gonna be there right
356
because my parents were off in korea And he opens the door
357
and he just sees me sitting in the kitchen by myself He actually got scared when he saw me.
358
He's like what the heck lena?
359
What are you doing here?
360
And guys I broke down to him I was sobbing my
361
eyes out to him He's the first person I told like the truth
362
that I was struggling and I felt really lonely in college and I hated college And he didn't lecture me.
363
He didn't try to fix it He just like listened and my brother's not like an emotionally I don't know expressive person.
364
So he just sat there and listened to me,
365
which that was enough for me.
366
Even him listening.
367
I appreciated it.
368
And he just tells me grab your stuff.
369
We're going.
370
And I was like, what?
371
Like, where are we going?
372
He doesn't even answer me.
373
We get in his car and he drives me back to New York City.
374
I was like, bruh, this guy's driving me back to NYU where I was trying to escape from like my brother sucks.
375
And I thought he was driving me to NYU.
376
He actually ended up taking me to a restaurant.
377
And I remember it to this day because it's still one of my favorite restaurants to this day.
378
It's called Rosemary's here in New York City.
379
I've never eaten at such a nice restaurant in New York City before.
380
I was like so amazed.
381
That restaurant is gorgeous.
382
And he bought me a plate of pasta.
383
And thinking about it now as a grown adult,
384
I'm like, what my brother did for me was crazy because he was only 20 at the time.
385
He was only 20 years old.
386
He was not balling like that financially either.
387
But he took me out to eat, which I really appreciated.
388
Spent his Friday night with his little sister at this restaurant in New York City.
389
I'm looking at this gorgeous plate of pasta in front of me.
390
And he tells me, you think those girls at NYU are better than you because they can afford this $14 plate of pasta?
391
He's like, you have so much more to offer.
392
You go to the same school as them.
393
You need to see yourself as an equal and not shrink.
394
And that moment changed everything for me because what he said was facts and it was great advice.
395
But also I realized that just because you feel lonely doesn't mean that you're unloved.
396
A lot of times the people who do really care about you aren't showing up for you
397
because they don't know what you're going through.
398
So that's why if you feel this way right now,
399
reach out to your sister,
400
your friend, your mom, your cousin,
401
your childhood friend that you haven't spoken to since middle school, your therapist.
402
Okay, there is someone out there for everyone.
403
We are social creatures.
404
Okay.
405
We are not meant to be alone all the time with our own thoughts
406
And
407
if you're in a season of life where you genuinely don't have someone to reach out to you I'm here
408
and that's honestly why youtube has always been my favorite platform It feels like you are friends with the person
409
that you're watching That's how I feel with my favorite youtubers
410
And I hope that's the way that you guys feel with me
411

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
