    Hi Michelle!! I’ve been watching your videos for 6+ years now, if not more, and the biggest reason why I love you and your content so much is because you stay yourself through-and-through. You stand firm in the faith against the world. I’m a full-time communications seminary student so I am extra careful with the media I consume. I only want to consume content that is going to nurture my faith/please Christ. Thank you for being true to yourself and Christ despite the pressure from the sinful world we live in!

    Hei Michelle. I was thinking, what type of shampoo do you use? Your hair is on your face a lor and the state of your skin may be related. If I were you I would try for a while a super clean, non-toxic option and see if anything changes. Take care!

    I know you talked about not cutting out food groups, but... I know quite some people who stopped eating products with lactose in it (such as yoghurt, cheese, etc.) and it did WONDERS for their skin. I know you've been struggling with acne, maybe this is totally unwanted advice or maybe you've already tried it, but just wanted to tell you. Otherwise, another lovely video, I really enjoy your content 🥰

    I'm definitely on board with enjoying walks and paying attention to your surroundings. When I used to walk my dog - sadly because of arthritic changes as he's gotten older we can only do very short walks- I would try to imagine the walk from his perspective. To walk mindfully rather than listen to podcasts.
