Thank you for sharing your story Scarlett. I have been listening to other peoples stories about changing their name as I am starting the process myself. I am 65 and I realize it is late in the game for me to do this but I feel to be true to myself, I am doing it. I have never resonated with my birth name. As a child in elementary school, I remember writing other names on my papers as I never identified with my name. My first name came from someone my mother was friends with, this was not a family member. I knew this person and I have nothing against her but I felt it was someone else's name and not one I identified with. My father was originally from another country, when he became a US citizen before I was born he took a different name. He lived in Italy and changed his last name to that of an Opera House in Naples. I have never identified with my first or last name. So I am actually changing it to my fathers birth name, When I say the name I feel a lightness if being on the inside. I am taking a feminine version of his first name. I can't explain it but it just gives me happiness and joy! It truly resonates. I have a family history , blood line and DNA with the name, I have none of than with my birth name.
Thank you so much for bringing up the origins of a name and race/ethnicity. I’ve been struggling to pick a name based on whether it’s a name usually used with someone different than I. I’m glad you’ve* found the one for you 💛

I am using cousin cell as well :::::::; and do homeschooling as well need as well reaching tool

Resourceful. Innumerous information can be gleaned from this one video alone. Bellissima!
Hello my name 👋🏽 is Chaleika ❤️👸🏽❤️ & I am 23 & a half years old young autistic female person. But soon is about to turn 24 this summer 🏝️🌞🏖️ which is actually going to be on the 9th of August. So anyways I just recently decided not to go by one of my 2 middle names anymore which was actually assigned to me at birth by my both parents Rokeisha right next to Ester just quite literally because I didn't like how that one middle name Rokeisha was pronounced, or spelled that way. While growing up & not just only that I've gotten bullied like ever since when I was in elementary school 🏫🎒 right through to high school too like pretty much all of my whole entire life. Meaning that I have been having a very low self-esteem like that also does includes by moving to many different cities like eight times in my life. & even too by switching many different schools like pretty much like eleven times. Which wasn't very fun for me at all. Just quite literally because I didn't have many friends 😢😭 while, growing up. Like even too that I have also started to realize about the whole fact that my second middle name rose 🌹 was actually supposed to be assigned to at birth by just only from my dad too in real life. Just quite literally because I was given by a most very beautiful lovely ring that I actually used to have 💍 which did had a pink rose 🌹 stone on it too like ever since when I was just at the age of 12 while growing up down in southern Hamilton Ontario of Canada. Just a little further away from in the city of Toronto that I used to live too. And btw the reason why that I have decided to call myself rose 🌹 as my second middle name just quite literally because. I have really truly do feel like a rose 🌹 just right inside of my heart ❤️ & not just only that I also did found that one middle name rose 🌹 more suitable for me. Just like my sister who is actually both the youngest in the family. Yes 😉❤️ most definitely at a 💯% for sure indeed.
Love this! I am so glad I met you and your family because you join our club to play tennis!!
Hi, thank you for the inspiring videos. You mentioned in previous videos how you managed to get your law degree even though you were making very little money, I wonder how did you manage to fund your law degree while supporting yourself and your daughter?
You are legit my online life coach! Such amazing advice!
Thanks for sharing all of this! It's so reassuring to hear such relatable insights.
The main issue is the unforseen factors. No one can guarantee anything - good 8% return on investment, secure job, healthy body, forever good housing market or low mortgage percentage. We know for fact that consistent investing will win and housing value usually go up. Other than that, it's all psychology. I would rather establish a plan to do the middle ground - do some investment, make some extra payment payment for mortgage and pay off mortgage a little earlier (but not too crazily early). Able to sleep at night is my plan for success.
Love your video. Thanks for sharing
Great video. I ate up every word
So does that involves litigation when working with the government against banks?
Making time for hobbies like tennis and carving out time for fun really stood out to me and it’s something I want to implement.
Love the reflections on success markers and being vulnerable and open to life pivots
Wow❤
Happy Mother's Day!

Great story just wow. I had my son at 17 but gave up for a long time
I agree with you on your advice. I used to think that if i start blogging as a sidehustle and work full time at a job i will be successful at it, but unfortunately i did not think about the fact that many times i was not "in the mood" and also i felt deep within about m blogging journey as it was more of a hobby. I did not think about it as a business. And after 4 years of doing it i decided to stop because i lost passion for it and also i had a tough realization that it's not gonna work unless i treat it as a serious business. But sometimes it's kind of hard to do that because of the environment and other people around don't think about it as a business either. So a few years later i came up with another business idea and this time i created a pro business plan and i treated it like that and started to talk about it to the people around me like it was already a business. It took time for them to understand and accept that i have a busines but it's much better now. Also, i finally learnt how to systemize my to - do list and prioritize amongsts tasks which helped a lot plus finally learnt to monetize it which i could not do at the previous business idea. Thanks for sharing your tips ❤😊
I'm so sorry for this off-topic comment....but you and Falynn Pina could be sisters 😮
You’re the best! ❤
You tube suggestion now a new sub. Greetings from the uk 🇬🇧 😊
It’s easy to give advice when you both are a lawyers and make it easier to,pay back…wow..God help me..😖😖
It is a starter emergency fund. Remember you did not have anything saved at first. So a 1000,- is a lot. After paying off your debt than working to 3-6 months of full emergency fund
This was very encouraging.
You're so classy and eloquent. You're a great communicator. Thanks for sharing. ❤
You could be too. :)
Thank you
Great way to look at everything 🤗 Side Note: I still cannot bowl 😳 but i go with my husband and nephews just to take pictures and make memories.... And they just love that im there😳😅😅😅
This was so beautiful and wonderful to hear! This year a new hobby Im learning is having better Self Confidence! Because from there, I can LEAN INTO ALL THE GOALS Ive set for myself. So Therapy has been a huge help with that 💖
Love that you went from: “This is challenging - therefore it must not be for me” To “This could be a fun challenge to overcome, and learn from or gain friends as well as skills”. My kids have recently started playing hooky. Because school is finally a challenge for them, now, and home is less challenging. They want to stay in their comfort zone, at home. But they have to stretch. They will grow and learn more if they face those challenges until they can overcome them or focus on the gains to be had on the other end. I have to show them by example that we can face challenges and make mistakes and kind of suck at new things at first, and that’s normal. But that doesn’t mean we give up just because it doesn’t feel stellar right off the bat. We don’t give up on ourselves like that. Or our goals. It’s important to suck sometimes. Nobody is great at everything all the time. It’s humbling and can help us be more compassionate to those struggling around us.
Your journey of embracing new hobbies like playing the cello, gardening, and tennis is truly inspiring! It's a great reminder of how stepping out of our comfort zones can not only transform our self-perception but also enrich our social lives.
This came at a wonderful time in my life. After checking all my like boxes I’ve been asking, “What now?” I’m blessed to have the time to figure that out, and build something fulfilling and intentional. Thanks for sharing.
❤ great video and information im also in pivotal moment thanks for the help
You are awesome ❤ I love how you jump right into change and doing things you want to explore or had negative perceptions ❤️♥️❤️
One hobby I started was Friday board games, paint night and movie nights with our family. Oh my gosh, board games stuck and has been something we still love to do. I also didn't have a green thumb either, but plan to pick that up again. Many times we don't take time out to reflect. We also started taking a mini-retirement vacation for 1 month every 3 years to totally unplug. It was the best thing we ever did. Glad you are sharing this.
I know a lot of people will make comments on your amount of debt. But college degrees open doors, offer job security, career advancement, and there is no comparison.
It’s mom brain ! 🧠 I loose my train of thought as well 😂❤
Thank you for sharing this! I am just starting my own sabbatical to work on myself and figure out where I want to go next. The trial and error bit really resonates as that's what I plan to do for the next few months; to try all the things that sound good on paper and see what I actually like doing. Thanks again for the great video!
I enjoyed watching this a lot. I related on many different levels. Thank you for sharing. I think you'd do so well on a podcast but all directions sound good. All the best.
Welcome back 🙏
Love this! 💜 we have a Tonal too, the 10-15 minute workouts are surprisingly effective too…I do those when I am short on time!
Wow! Once you dedicate the time, you can learn anything!
This is a wonderful video 🤍 Thank you.
