    this video is such a fresh breath of air. You are literally my goals. To travel and have a job/s while doing it. I also am in college and I have always wanted a degree, but I don't know what I want to do with my life and its refreshing that I don't need a 9-5 job like everyone says.

    You are soooo right about everything you say in this video! 😃 I'm working on building my own business because I want to live my dreams. I've held myself back for years because I was influenced by "normal" life. I thought there was something wrong with me because I didn't want that kind of life. And I thought I needed to grow up properly and then I would fit into a "normal" life. Never happened. So now I'm jumping - into my dream.

    Amanda, this is the only video Iv seen..Im still listening.I feel like you..and you have done it.Iv turned minimulism by necessity and feeling that its made me aligned more with my deep inner needs.I am still Regrouping for the changes I make every so often..kind of like climbing a mountain and then stopping to see how far Iv gone. I set a goal to move to Ireland so I can complete a book Iv been writing while struggling with the reality of making a living ..but honestly Iv kept quiet about it. Writing is something Iv always lived to do..as a way to express and also create and share. It is so good to meet you and hear your experience. It makes me happy there are like minded people out there, And I love you talking about the LAW. Iv been watching alot of great channels. And find louise haye explains it really well. My book is also about this. I will subscribe and curious to watch your vids. You encourage me to continue and believe that If I decide courageously and at least to myself that this is what Id like to do ..that I can .sending you lots of love .and thanks for putting it out there.Liah x

    Lately I like watching chanel talking about minimalism, it's so inspiring. Can say I didn't start it yet, but it's already changed the way I think about what I have now, just like when I cleaning my house and rearrange my closet, I realized I already got things more than I need, even found things that still have price tags 🤪. Do minimalism that suit me and enjoy the change ❤️

I would really like to quit my 9-5 job some day, but as someone living in the U.S., one thing that keeps stopping me is how would I afford health insurance. I would love it if you would share what you do in regards to health insurance while traveling and working part-time jobs, any tips or insights you may have. Thanks a bunch!

    I understand completely. I am still in the beginning stages of my minimalist journey but I have gotten rid of so much and I dont miss it. I also have made about 1k from selling on Poshmark and to family and friends. My children and I are much happier and we have more peace. Plus even deep cleaning is a breeze. Once they r out of the house I am definitely going to travel constantly.

    This is such an inspiring video! I just started minimalism at the beginning of this year and it has really helped me not only put a really nice down payment on my house, but also pay more of the principal each month! My plan is to get out of a 9-5 in the next 12-18 months if my savings plan goes without any unexpected emergencies!

    Everything you say reminds me of me ...when I was traveling in Australia and New Zealand. I was thinking the same...I was feeling the same...had so much passion and dreams...I was really happy. I thought I can do anything I want in my life. But at some point you need to come back... your parents miss you ... the visas running out ... you get more mature....you get sick of meeting new people every time. It took me 6 months at home... and everything turned. You cannot compare backpacking to a "normal" life... at some point, you will need to settle down... moving in with a partner ...etc. Then you will realize that this experience was something special ...but not a forever!

    I love my 9 to 5 ❤ Loving the beauty industry it does not feel like I'm working but I still get to travel on my time off I'm trying to minimize my spending not because I'm lacking money. Or living pay check to pay check. But watching these type of videos made me realize I don't need so much clothes. I had 2 closets around 80 pairs of shoes. It's just ridiculous. Now I have less clutter. More breathing room and it just feels better

    they literally came to me. I started talking with family and friends about how I wanted to be a writer. When I was in Thailand, someone found me via a facebook ad to sell my bike. He looked at my facebook page, where I was constantly writing essays. He reached out and told me that he didn't want to buy my bike, but he wanted me to work for him as a writer. The second one happened because of this channel, someone found me talking about minimalism and saw that I love writing (I talk about it a fair amount haha) and asked me to write a minimalism series for him.

    I like how you went for your dreams and didn't let others tie you down from what you wanted in your life. If it isn't the norm, so be it. I think as long as people aren't hurting anyone by what they do then people should do what makes them happy.. I do work a regular job 4 - 5 hours a day, five days a week but it is my dream job so I am happy with that. However, there are a few personal things I want that I am slowly working towards and if someone doesn't agree that is not their business. Can't please everyone.

    So I guess when you are old, like me, and you haven't been paying into any system, then you will get by, exactly how? Oh, some man? Or your kids? or the government? The reason we work is so that at 60 we are free for 20-30 years. Ya, it blows to work 5 days a week, but that is how you can contemplate retiring at 45 or 50, being truly independent, knowing you served your time, and achieved something amazing, and along the way there are perks, days off, vacation. Make your plans, figure them out, that is the challenge, finding work - life balance, not checking out entirely. A woman without her own money is vulnerable to any way the wind blows, and you will feel insecure, regardless even if you only have enough stuff to fill one plastic bag. If you get hurt, and can't work to supplement, or the writing dries up, or U tube gets bored of you, what then, or your apartment sells and you can't afford another place, and you can't call your parents, really, think about it, what then? No one is saying to live in fear, but why not normal? What is so bad about normal and being independent because you're working and putting money aside for the future, which by the way comes really quickly? There are so many young women and men watching, do you really want to tell them to check out like this? What contribution are they making to the society that supports them? I see more and more girls on the street with signs asking me for my money, and I always think, get a job, its really not as bad as you've been told. I don't feel the minimalist wave is meant to advise people that they don't need to commit to 9-5 but more to remind us that we don't need all the stuff.

    Thank you for your comment! I do save for retirement, and I don't believe that you ever have job security in any position - which is why I make an income from a variety of sources. I believe that I'm making an excellent contribution to society by encouraging people to live their best life. I am definitely making more of a contribution now than I was at my last job, where I would create excel reports to show my boss how much money he was making. Thank you for your worries but I will be fine :)

    Amanda, congratulations with what your achieved! recently I quit my long-lasting job and tried to stay 2 months away from work and thoughts about it. But, now it's 4 months already and I still didn't find what fits me. But, it's ok. I mean it doesn't scare me because I feel I need this still time, I know i'm on a right track. I wish I could say the same about my parents. I scare them. So what would you recommend to say to somehow calm them down so that they stop asking question whether I found a new job or have a plan everyday and just let me be. maybe you dealt with the same hysteria ))) with you closest people? I will appreciate your feedback.
