    Such a nice video- it is so cool to have an insight on your "normal" working days :) as always brightens up my Saturday morning ☀️ xx

    loved this video and the chat...it's helped me to set the intention for this week: 'you are worth more than the things you do'. I'm in my final year and have a lot of uni deadlines in the next 10 days before going home for christmas and I'm finding it so hard to appreciate the progress i have made without stressing about what I still have to do. Side note: I also like to frame my intentions with positive wording rather than 'don't value yourself based on...' because the negative wording of 'don't' plants a negative image in your mind even when the message itself is a positive one! Wishing you a great week :)

    Hope these vlogs aren't too taxing to make because I could watch them aaaalllll week!! I took so many good pointers from today's: go for a walk each day to break away from 'productivity guilt', and it's also so good to see someone with a good relationship with food and exercise!! Love these vlogs ❤️❤️

    Thank you for being open with us! My family did not take it well then they found out about my therapist (which they snooped in my room and found her card). I know that over the years I have found my inner self and peace.

    Such a nice video to watch. A very friendly reminder to myself to not feel guilty for enjoying some time off. I really have a love/hate relationship with to-do lists and the last few months they trigger my anxiety and I really need to find a new balance in it.

    Thank you so much for sharing your experience about going to therapy and navigating through toxic productivity. I also struggle with toxic productivity, and lockdown has definitely forced me to redefine what it actually means to be productive for me, and it is a lot more about being gentle with myself. Taking care of myself is just as productive if not more productive than powering through work

    I adored this vlog Zanna. I recently realised that I am addicted to self development and always feel like I have to be being productive too! I am a primary school teacher so can't walk during the day, but love to in the evening if I can. I am so grateful that you opened up about this and the therapy. I have considered it but have felt shame around it from friends and family comments about it. Watching your videos is such a breath of fresh air and a support to me, so thank you 🥰

    One of the things I just realized is that I enjoy your vlogs so much, not just because of the content (you are just so much fun to watch), its also because you are one of the few that doesn't use the word "like" 1-million times in a 5 min. period. THANKS for proper English :) And I almost like the weekday vlog better...

    Zanna I loved this video! You should do more like this. I remember you made a video a few months ago about how you were self conscious about making videos without ant but girl ppl watch your videos for you! I love when ant is in them because he’s adorable and you guys are so cute together but I also just love watching you and seeing what you’re up to! Xoxo

    WOW Zanna, thank you for your "confession" about the therapy. I am a coach and psychologist and it means the world to me, that people like you admit that they are visiting specialist and describe it as a normal thing - because it is normal. If we are feeling sick- we go and see a doctor, but when our mental health is not on top we just seem to cover it up or just isolate ourselves. So really thank you for such sharing. I really believe that investing in our mental health (nor only money, but also energy) is a game-changing decision.

    @rouge1723 жыл бұрын

    I’ve been in therapy for about 3 years now and the first 3-6 months are the hardest. In that time you are letting your therapist get to know you. So it pretty much just you talking the entire time. But after then it really becomes a dialogue between the two of you(at least me and my friends cases) for any one who is curious about therapy. IT TAKES TIME TO SEE THE BENEFITS. Stick with it. It’s hard at first and you just get for comfortable with being uncomfortable!
