If people don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all.

Just asking, if I say that something isn't my taste, is that acceptable? There's lots of stuff that I see that I don't like for me. There's a lot that I can say is nice, gorgeous, but won't work for me, simply because size, style, shape, color. Which is honest. I grumble because I will love something, but it won't love me back.

After I retired from the military I wanted to finally do something fun with my hair because anything other than more natural colors wasn’t allowed…anyway i went with blonde with the tips dark purple. I was shopping one day and this man in his 70s looks at me with a disgusted look on his face and asks me why I would do that to my hair. I was shocked that he felt he had the right to ask that. I’ve also had a guy say something about my jeans with holes in them too. You were absolutely right….nobody’s business and speaks volumes to the type of person they are.

It’s almost funny in a depressing kind of way that everything that could’ve went wrong at the flea market did. Scammy booth, random lady yelling about being filmed, creepy guy commenting on appearance. It’s the the perfect storm of rudeness and craziness.
You're so sweet I almost started crying when you were talking in your car about judgemental mouthy people. I'm having a mental health day myself. I need a day to decompress from all the ugly out in this world. Glad you're home and safe. Happy Thursday have a great day! 😊🌈

NO WAY!!! Let me first apologize on behalf of all Florida Natives for the rude and disrespectful mannerisms of those who were so harsh to you. People can be so cruel and often times is what formulates us for who we become. Not all of us are mean- please know that. Keep being you and showing us Floridians that you are the real MVP Kayla. You inspire so many of us and that keeps us all going. XOXO
I am proud of you, Kayla, for going back in and not letting them get to you! You are a beautiful soul!
I live in Central Florida and my daughter lives in South Florida in the Ft. Lauderdale area . Every time I visit her I am appalled at the rudeness of some of the people down there...its like stepping onto a different planet . The difference in the two regions of the same state is remarkable to say the least . I'm sorry you had such a bad run in of rude people in our state....we aren't all like that 😉.

Kaylee, I’m so impressed by your courage! You step out of your comfort zone quite a bit on your videos, and you show all of us what is possible if we do the same. Don’t worry about people’s opinions or words. If you do right you will always have confidence. May Jesus continue to bless you and your family! Thank you for sharing your life with all of us! 🙏🙂jill

I get stressed when I am followed or someone wont stop talking to me while I'm shopping. I understand how you felt.
Stay strong girl. Sadly there are people like that everywhere you go. Must have miserable lives. I know you can handle it so keep on doing your thing. You always seem to pull out a win with your picks.
Sorry that happened to you at the flea market...People can be cruel and rude, and I'm happy that you pushed yourself to go back in. It literally brought tears to my eyes when you described the situation, because I too have been there. Stay the kind, happy person you are and I wish you and your husband continued success! Love your channel!
Kayla, good for you for going back in there! It’s so empowering to rise above the noise and nonsense. My motto: what others think of me is none of my business❤
You go girl! You’re seriously my spirit animal! I’m so sensitive and awkward in situations like that! I would have left immediately you’re so brave!
You're such a kind person, Kayla, which is one reason I love your videos. Glad you didn't let those rude people ruin your whole day!
I’m so glad you went back in because you are a boss lady don’t you let anyone get to you because everyone that watches you knows what a beautiful soul you are don’t ever change ❤
You are blessed to live where you live - everyone is SO much nicer. Here in New York you must develop a thicker skin in order to survive. So proud of you that you went back in and am truly in awe of your ability to find so many wonderful items in the short time that you have been selling. Great job as always!

I’m so glad you didn’t let it knock you down. You went back in and proved how strong you are ❤ great job 😊
Strangers are so rude nowadays!!!! I'm sensitive too like you. I even hate going places alone. I never use to be that way. Be safe!!!! I love your videos.
I can relate to this video! I would feel mad nervous in such a negative atmosphere. Even though I’m a fairly independent lady, I’m also sensitive and it takes me a minute to compose myself when people act crazy towards me. What’s making me laugh is thinking about how you could turn these scenarios into a “Florida Man” headline. Florida Man Stares At Woman’s “Holy”. Jeans; Thinks He Sees the Virgin Mary. 😂 For those of you who haven’t heard of this before, it’s a funny trend to Google “Florida Man” and your birthday to see what nutty headlines pop up.
I always enjoy your videos! I started reselling in 2021 and you were one of my favorite you tubers and you still are! You are real and kind! I admire you for doing this trip solo. I am 61 years old and have never done that!
You can film anything you want to out in public. Those people at the flea market can't have any reasonable expectation of privacy in that setting. I am a sensitive person too, Kayla, but I can't tolerate a bully and that's just what she was. I'm not sure I could have walked away from that one! 🤬

I just looked that up too! The Flea market is in public. The comment about pot (also can't stand that) makes me think the people hassling were paranoid that you were a cop! Lol
She got upset because she is guilty of cheating people. People get defensive when they know they are distributors of FRAUD!! Shake it off! You are a beautiful person and the genuine deal. She was the problem, not you! You are GREAT, Kayla and deserve so much more. Great pickups!! Keep the faith!! Blessings!
I have to say, I could literally see and feel what you were feeling after that woman yelled at you! Major Kudos to you for gathering up that courage to go back out there! You won!
I've had seventy three-year-old great-grandmother I've had surgery on my shoulder and I'm just sitting around and walking around through the house so it's nice to be able to watch you and your video I love watching you you do a good job and I see where you're coming from when people say things that are not nice don't pay no attention to him because it's like you said it's their problem not yours should be able to wear what you want to without people commenting on what you where you keep up the good work I love watching you you make my day
You were right down the street from my house (before the swap shop). I can hook you up with any shipping you need to do if you get lucky and can't fit it all in the suitcase! lol And now I see you are home. South Florida takes some getting used to.
I did the same thing at my first visit to a new to me flea marketthis year, I freaked out after my first walk through because of similar issues. I was alone, strange people, weird vibes. I didn't buy a thing, went back to my car intending to leave (after driving over an hour to get there) Then I gave myself a pep talk, went back through and ended up having a good day of buying and found several people selling that I knew! And the people I bought from were so nice. Sorry you got yelled at though. Thought I would share so you know that you are not alone with the apprehension.
Oh bless your heart for pushing through all the harassment there at that flea market. You were braver than I would have been!!!!!! KEEP YOUR HEAD UP MY FRIEND! YOU ARE ENOUGH!
Girl! Congrats on tackling the anxiety! You are absolutely right in that the uninvited comments are a sign of the person’s inner conflict and issues. Love your upbeat, fun, and hard-working personality😊😊❤️👍👍👍🙏🙏
Awe Kayla! I'm so sorry you had such a bad experience at the flea market. I'm like you, I probably would've cried or something. Especially when that guy was insulting your outfit. 😭😭 We just have to try and forgive those folks and pray for them.
Baby, don't let people make you feel less than who you are. You are awesome. And you show that EVERY day. Just laugh at those fools and move on. That's THEIR insecurities, and if they can bring someone else down, it only makes them feel better... and if you're not packing heat, listen to your gut and don't walk in places where you're uncomfortable. You make me proud... all my love, Gypsy Willow Treasures (Teresa)
Kayla, as you get older you don't let those things people rudely say to you bother you very much. I was just like you, I would rather walk away, OR my greatest wish was to have a great comeback to them on the fly, I could think of a million things when I was out of the moment. But you are a sensitive soul and I understand.
Amen sister! I used to be a people please who let people speak negative into me. BUT NO MORE! It says so much about how miserable some people are. I love your transparency and your courage to put yourself out there. I wish you did 2 times per week. Lol!
Please don't be upset, we are all with you, you are very positive and motivate us!!! It really hurts to see you upset!!! Good luck in the New Year!

You reminded me of how brutal it is in south Florida, I’ve lived here for 6 years now and it still shocks and upsets me how mean people are. Very selfish mentality. And a large majority of the population it trying to scam people, instead of making an honest living.
Aww Kayla sorry that happened to you, gotta shake it off. I work retail and get yelled, verbally abused everyday....everyday, know it's not you they are unhappy in their life and just want to make everyone else miserable. You know you did nothing wrong. I have taught myself to feel sorry these people as they probably had a tough life. Anyway I always enjoy your video's keep smiling, your the best.

Where are you? Where in Florida? You are bold girl. And complex trauma from childhood abuse and or neglect. Makes us incredibly sensitive to conflict. It’s the way our brains are wired, it also makes us incredibly empathetic and kind to others. Got this girl.
Wow, that flea market was crazy! Good for you Kaylee for going back in and conquering! Happy 2023!
I’m sorry people were mean to you! But I have to say, you have come so far since I started watching your videos! Yay Kayla 🌻 I also loved your choice for lunch- all my favorites! Safe travels and enjoy the rest of your trip 😊🌻
Ugh... I wish I could've warned you!! The SwapShop is the worst flea market EVER... It's always so chaotic. Sorry that you had to go through that
You handled this so well Kayla! What happened to you brought back memories of what happened to us once - also in Florida while on vacation. We were at an outdoor sale where a large amount of vendors were set up under canopy tents. My husband and my son were looking at some items on a table, when suddenly a small antique heater sitting under the table fell over. No harm done - nothing damaged at all - it landed softly on the grass. The booth owner came out loudly screaming at my husband telling him to get out and that he didn't "belong here." He told her he would gladly leave and said "You got one thing right Lady, I don't belong here." LOL....
Some people are just miserable. Sad! Just shrug it off.😉 Keep going! You are doing great!
Kayla you are so right. I am constantly amazed that people can't just mind their own business, and rude on top of it. I'm sorry you got yelled at like that, its like that in bigger areas.Unfortunately I do let things like that deter me, so good for you that you went back in and tried again, especially being by yourself. Keep your head up girl, your doing great. I wish everyone had a big heart like you, it would sure make life easier. Oh, and great finds, lol.😉
That Faith Farm one that you went into with all the furniture. Go back and walk into the building on the other side of the parking lot, then go upstairs there, too.
Bless your heart! What a terrible experience. I'm glad to see you safely back home. 💜💜💜
Kayla, I'm a newer subscriber of yours (and Matt's), and I'm going through and watching many of the older videos you guys made separately and together. I just got through this video today, 5/20/2024. Let me say that I am so sorry you had to deal with the negativity from the Florida folks in that swap meet (16:20). You did nothing wrong, and did not deserve that. I'm glad that your "big girl panties" allowed you to move on and win out over their meanness and unkindness towards you. Never allow that kind of mistreatment to sway you away from doing what you love to do. I have watched enough of your videos to know that you are a sweet, kind, thoughtful human, and way more gracious than me, because I would have had words to say right back to that lady! Of course I would have regretted it later, but oh well. You will never be able to please every single person you meet, because every single person is not built with the same kindness that you possess. Keep doing what you love, and stay kind to others, even if they can't reciprocate it! Keep making videos for us!
What the HECK with these rude people! Thanks for a great video and sorry you had to go through dealing with angry people. Some people want the entire world to know how bitter they are. Great job going back. I wouldn't have been brave enough.
I lived In Florida for 17 years, people is so rude. I moved to California 4 years ago and it was the best decision ever :) You are a brave person, please always remember that ❤
I was scared for you at that flea market. I’m relieved to know you’re back home.
So heartbreaking for you to experience the rudeness of Floridians. Stay sweet and don’t let others get you down. There are nice people like you and me everywhere.
Don’t worry about it. You are 100% correct. People can be jerks for sure.
Proud of you girl, I remember a time I let the intimidation stop me. Hey I use to set up at that same swap shop and would make hundreds , lol 1980’s
Lady, I want to start out saying I love watching you, you have really helped me in my business. Now, don't let those crazy people bother you. I was just like you when I was younger, I'm now 63 and I now just shake my head and walk away, ill be damned if I let them stop me or make me feel bad. I use to let those people hurt my feeling, not anymore. Stick to your mission and keep it up. Ignore the crazies, you did nothing wrong.
I will never understand why people think it is their job to criticize others on their looks or attire. I think people feel free to sit behind a computer and criticize so it is spilling over into face to face interactions. But you are right it says more about them then the person they are criticizing. You just continue to do you girl because you are fabulous.
You are such a sweet person. Don't let someone being ugly and disrespectful ruin your day. Just keep doing what you're doing! ❤
Bless your heart Kayla! I would have been so uncomfortable too! It's amazing that you went back in. I'm glad you're home safe and sound! ❤️
Next time just say a genuine: "Thank you" when someone is giving you hard time. I do this all the time and it works really well to instantly neutralize their negativity. It also infers that the interaction is over.
At Faith Farm, you needed to into the other building and go upstairs, that is where the thrift store is.
Kayla, I relate to your experiences so much!! Everything you said about people and their rude comments is spot on!
I’m proud of you for stepping out of the comfort zone. I am the same, super anxious and extremely sensitive. But I learned a long time ago that you have to stand up for yourself. People are shocked when you pop off after that man’s comment or the flea market troll. They are bullies and they expect no one to say anything back. Try it next time! You’ll feel more empowered, even if you just say, “ bless your heart.”

You have a great attitude and you are correct, not a single one of us has the right to comment on someone else’s appearance. Keep doing what you’re doing and remember the mean people are the minority.

I know all about being judged , happens everywhere I go , it sucks. Like you said, they have the problem. Nice finds🤟
I have anxiety as well, and bullies can somehow pick up on it. I've had folks rip stuff out of my hands at Garage or Estate sales and tell me that I don't need it, and it's theirs now. While I am a plus sized woman, I'm only 5' tall, and folks, especially men, will loom over me for the intimidation factor to get their way. Wish I was brave enough to throat punch 👊 😕 them.
