✨ About me: ✨
Hi, I’m Zoe! (Pronounced like Zoey) I’m a 26 year old from Montreal making videos about my REAL life. After quitting my management consulting "dream job", then being laid off from a startup job, I decided to take a chance and work for myself. I'm now mainly focused on KZread (my absolute passion) and side-hustle contracts in the copywriting and admin fields.
My videos centre around work, gentle productivity, mental health & personal wellness, with a touch of fashion, tech, and whatever else I'm living. My goal is to be open & honest ALWAYS and for my channel to be a fun, inspiring place where we can set goals and live our best lives together. I would love for you to subscribe 💝

I really enjoy listening to you talk about finances , you are an inspiration on how to focus on paying down debit and building a strong financial base.
That excitement and feeling of relief when I don’t end up buying something I thought I wanted is so real. I hate feeling that consumerism urgency like you need to buy this now! It’s so freeing to say “actually I don’t”

I love how relatable your videos are, feels like I’m talking to my big sister about the important things not an influencer who makes 18x my salary 😂
Stopping by to say I relate so so hard to the study exchange thing! I've been struggling with my budget recently (working less so I can finish my grad degree faster) and was thinking about how a few years ago I had depleted my savings I worked so hard for for my study abroad semester and if I had that money now it would've grown so much, and literally thought to myself "Nah I'd rather have had that experience than the money now". Some things are priceless and we are so lucky we get to experience them for sure!

Hi Zoe! I've been affected by a massive Tech layoff in June 2023, but I've been watching your videos wayyyy before then! While I was job searching and trying out Upwork for the first time, I saw a lot of scams online. Do you have any recommendations on red flags? I am thinking about going the Teacher route and going back to school for my masters. You truly inspired me though! I just want to gain a masters because I don't feel respected in the corp world with just my Bachelors. Your videos are motivational, thanks so much!

Hey! My bachelor's and I were laid off in January (real estate lay offs) and I've since done a bootcamp and am working on getting into product design! If I can get in and make some actual money (old salary was 40k in LA) a master's or at least some NNG training is a big consideration. Just wanted to say you're not alone and these jobs can't not-hire us forever 🥹

for me, at least you really don’t like ur job at all!!! you should stay and study and improve, cause sometimes we’re not good at stuff because we don’t do stuff long enough to be good at that, so, i don’t know, for me, i would try to be better and then ask for a raise.

Takeout also gets me, but one thing to think about is that most of time, the time it takes for the food to deliver or when you go to pickup pre-made food you'd already be done cooking.

Hey if you have lost friends because of your choice to improve yourself, it's a great thing. It means you are growing when the people you lost are not. Throughout life your group will change if you keep growing yourself, it would be scary if you had the same people from high school when you retired, it means you didn't progress at all and are the same person. I'm not saying you won't have a handful of people, just saying the bulk of the people change as you develop. Good for you for doing what's necessary for you.
I remember always dreaming of making 50k. Now I’m there and it feels like minimum wage, and I don’t even have a car payment or high rent currently

It's crazy how we get used to a certain amount but also how life has become SO expensive in the last few years
you should do it once a month a money q&a!
Not to get all woo woo, but after graduating a wrote down where I wanted to be in terms of income and networth. I reached both milestones 6 years before I thought I’d be there (I was probably thinking small, but also realistic) I have obviously worked hard for this, but I think there’s a lot of power in writing down our thoughts and intentions
Five figures a yr isn’t enough
I did the activity and if my dream life is my own apartment in LA, updating my car, traveling more, saving more, and eating better - AND I'm taxed at 30%, then my dream salary is $127k per year 😅
Hey Zoe! Love your content! I’m more interested in the financial/career aspects of your channel. However, would you ever consider incorporating some non-fast fashion brands into your videos? I want to continue supporting you but Garage as a company makes me uncomfortable because it’s contributing so much waste to the environment and has such poor working conditions for the people making the garments. I think a thrift store/second hand haul video would be really cool to see. Just wanted to throw it out there and see if you would be open to it! Love from the US!!!
@ZoePritchard

i used to go thrifting alll the time, especially during covid so I have some old hauls of thrifted stuff 🩷 BUT it’s definitely a good idea to go again and I can include a haul in a vlog!
Do you need to wear glasses 😭? Almost all the girls with large beautiful eyes need to wear glasses these days because of the homework and exams 😭
I think losing your big friends group over time happens for most of us anyway as we get older.. but the saving and choices you are making now will make a huge difference in your life down the line. Your friends might regret not saving earlier in life.
36:20 This. I used to think the same as well! Worrying what others think of you is such a waste of time and energy. Just focus on what you think of yourself. 🍂 🍁 ✨
