- This is definitely the most insane time in my life 😂 I know this vlog is probably a little more personal than what you were expecting, but I wanted to be completely honest about my time here in New York City for the summer and what it's been like. Hitting 100K subscribers and meeting the Jonas Brothers in the same week feel like a dream come true, and literally a picture off my younger self's vision board. The fact that my hardest battle with mental health and grief can occur in the midst of that is a reminder that nobody's life is perfect, and I wouldn't ever want you to think mine was. Thank you all so much for being here with me on this journey, I cannot vocalise how much I appreciate every single one of you, and how beautiful our community is.
Let's be friends!

I know this video is a little more personal than most people might have been expecting, I wont be offended if anyone wants to just skip to the concert footage and enjoy that haha, but I also hope my opening up can help anyone who might be going through the same thing 🫶 If you want to follow my journey while I explore more of America you can find me at instagram.com/agirlnamedally
i love when you talk about your mental health or just your life, because i think everyone (including me) can relate ❤
Thank you for this video!
i actually did the oppossie because i am your fan but not jonas brother's
@@shubhamagarwal8960 haha same here!
I loved travelling on my own. It's something I think people would be surprised by, in terms of having time by yourself, see what you want to, eat where you want to, and not have to worry about upsetting someone else. Glad you're showing your journey.
Can you be proud or feel emotional over a person you have never met in person?? I just am so happy for you Ally and hope one day to be brave enough to go after the things i feel passionate about 💌
Of course you can! Being able to feel empathy for another person, especially someone you’ve never met, is a great thing to have.
“Do what makes you feel anxious, not what makes you feel depressed.” That’s advice I was given decades ago. When you’re at a fork in the road, often the thought of choosing one direction creates anxiety. The other, usually the safe choice, can make you feel a little depressed. I tend to literally feel both in my gut as I’m contemplating my choice. I have never been disappointed taking the choice that’s new and less safe, and now in my 70s, I’ve had a great ride so far.
Wowwww I love this!
So happy for you to be brave enough to move to a completly different city and meet the Jonas brothers. Congrats on 100k you totally deserve them!! I really hope you know how much you help a lot of people with your positivity and everything you stand up for. Lots of love Ally and you are literally on your 1989tv era💙
Thank you so much love!!!!
As a lifelong New Yorker with lifelong anxiety: thank you so much for this video. I rewatch your Taylor videos whenever people in my life try to turn the joy and comfort her music gives me into shame. In that way - simply knowing I'm not the only one who spends her time thinking about these things - you've been helping me feel less along for a long time. This video did too, but on another level: similarly, I often feel like the only person who's plans (and life) can be significantly affected by anxiety. Everything you mentioned about navigating New York with anxiety has become a barrier for me. Things like taking the subway, enjoying the city, and DEFINITELY concerts feel, and often are, impossible. (I had one of the worst panic attacks of my life before the Eras Tour and couldn't go. I know that's what was best for myself at the time, but it's difficult not to regret).
I'm so happy they didn't remain barriers for you and that you got to see so much of the city! Also, knowing that you ultimately enjoyed your time here after a difficult start gives me hope; it's like a glimpse into a future I couldn't have simply imagined. Many of the places you went to are places I haven't been able to see in years. This video reminded me how much I miss them; it's motivation to finally go back.
Just a (more personal) side note: As you were talking about your dad in the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens by the cherry blossoms, I suddenly remembered one of my last memories of my dad: sitting with him right there, in that exact spot, talking and laughing. I live walking distance from the Botanical Gardens but never go because of my anxiety. Now have motivation to fight it and win: I HAVE to I can go, so I feel closer to him.
So, thank you so much for this video. Not only do I feel less alone; I WANT to get past the lies my brain tells me and venture back into my city. (That wasn't an epiphany I was expecting to have on a Saturday morning!)
Omg you're living the 1989 dream!! Congratulations girl 💙💙
This world needs more people like you 💜
Oh boy that is so kind 🥹
So happy for you Ally! I feel terrible that anxiety and panic can be so difficult for you. I truly understand. Sending you a virtual hug. You are not alone, and remember that your Dad’s love will never leave you
Ally, your videos feel like a hug to me. Thank you for sharing about these personal issues. You really do make a difference in the world! Btw, just wanted to mention that your editing skills are amazing and your voice/accent are really soothing to listen to :)
thank you so much!!
I’ve been here since 20k and I am SO proud of you. Congrats on meeting the Jonas brothers, and keep making amazing videos. Love you Ally! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much love!!
No way you went from facetiming them to ACTUALLY meeting them lol. Congrats you deserve it!💗
an UNREAL glow up
Ally, I love you so much, I can’t express how much of a role model you are. I’m not sure if you will see this, but I’ve been watching you for about two years and your positivity exudes through the screen. I know you’ve been through some extremely difficult things over the recent years but how please know how incredibly strong your are!!! I’m so proud, and even though you don’t know me please know how much I adore you!!! ❤❤❤
Ally, I am literally tearing up hearing you talk about how much you miss your Dad. You’ve been through so much. God bless you! 🩵 I’m so thankful everything worked out for you and you were doing so much better to go to the concert and meet the Jonas Brothers! 🥹💕 Sending you a big HUG! So proud of you!!
welcome to new york it’s been waiting for you
This is why I love your channel. You're open about difficult conversations, genuine and vulnerable while also being positive and uplifting. Returning the love. Keep doing what you're doing.
Congratulations! You’re so lucky to meet The Jonas Brothers!
Everything you said about self care and grief: girl you are so wise beyond your years! And as for the backstage VIP experience, you are an actual fan, in my mind you deserve to be there more than some influencer or celebrity. So glad you felt better and you enjoyed everything.
I lost my Mom to cancer a few years ago & also struggle with debilitating anxiety. I just wanted to say, thank you for your bravery in sharing, it gives me hope that I can travel solo someday too. Grief & anxiety are really only understood by those who’ve been there, thank you for helping me feel seen today. Sending love! ❤❤❤
Ugh, Ally, My heart goes out to you. Your anxiety (agoraphobia, even) sounds identical to mine. Home is "safe" so it can be TERRIFYING. I even decided I couldn't put myself through Taylor's concert, even though I love her and want to see her. I just know I am not in a place (yet!) where I can drive to the venue, deal with traffic, deal with the tram, etc. It's debilitating most days but I have also found that a lot of times I just have to get out there and do stuff anyway. It's a delicate balance between deciding what you can/can't handle. I love how aware you are of that fact
HOLD ON IS THAT MISS ELENA TABER??? OMG ALLY you hit the jackpot with the best and most wholesome friendgroup in nyc. Really happy for u ❤❤❤
I am so lucky!! Best people in my life
I found you from the video of you ranking all taylor swift's songs and now I celebrate this channel hitting 100k subscribers, it's just so insane :3 thank you so much for making me become a deeper swiftie than ever, love you so much from Vietnam :3
thank you so much!!
You are strong. You are beautiful. You are incredible. I’ve commented on a couple of your videos & you were sweet enough to answer. I was shocked. I’m old enough to be your mother ( my daughter is Taylor’s age), and I wish I could just give you a big hug. You are doing incredibly well & just take it a day at a time. This week marked the anniversary of losing my dad(7yrs) and losing my brother, my only sibling(3 yrs). I tell you that so you know that I understand missing them sometimes so much I can’t breathe. And you’re so young to have experienced that loss. I’m glad you shared, I’m one who thinks mental health isn’t talked about enough, which makes more suffering for those dealing with it. Yep, I was diagnosed 15 yrs ago. Most days are great days now. but there are still days I’m aimless. And it’s ok. You are ok, Ally. You do what you’re capable of doing. Sending hugs.
Wow, thank you so much Robyn, for taking the time to watch my video and also leave such a beautiful comment. I feel so much warmth coming through in your words from wherever you are in the world. I'm so sorry to hear about your losses too. Sending you the biggest hug back
ok so I just started the video, and the beginning intro with wtny is all i’ve ever needed
edit: the self are part about missing out on things is so important! i struggle with fomo, but i also can get super overwhelmed, and have had stress reactions. this part totally hit different
I am so happy you had fun. Congrats on 100k and you are so lucky for meeting the jonas brothers!
You are amazing Ally! congrats on your 100k!
Seeing you talk about your dad in the park made me realise how much more time I need to spend with mine. He had me at a really old age (he’s almost 60 now and I’m still a teen) and even though our relationship has been strained at times I want to spend as much time bonding with him as possible. Thanks for giving me that realisation ally, I’m positive your dad is so so proud of you and so am I 🩷
This made me so so happy to read, thank you for doing that for your dad!
This video is extremely beautiful and well put together. You’re so brave for fighting the anxieties and sharing your story with us! ❤
So happy for you girl!! You deserve all the best. 🫶😭
So happy that you are doing well & that you know where the calm spots are for you! Best wishes on your journey!!
💙💙💙
You are a ray of sunshine on this platform and your honest videos helped me so much !!!
Don’t you think that ally and @nenashelby should colab! They are both massive swifties and have both just reached 100k congratulations 🎉
Love how honest and open you are. I would love to see more vlogs
One of my fav videos of yours! Thank you for sharing the non-reason overwhelming of life and how it is just a lie of our minds… you’re so brave girl..
Congrats Ally, I am so proud of you. I hope you had the best time, you deserve it! 💜💜💜
Congrats Ally. You deserve all the success! ❤
This was such a beautiful video, ally! You were so brave to share your honest experience and the tough and ugly sides of real life that happen right along side the beautiful moments. I’m proud of you for taking care of yourself just as much as I am proud of you for deciding to go to the concert. 💜
congrats ally! I wish you the best for everything, and I'm so sorry that you had to deal with the really bad anxiety, it's so shit to have but I'm so glad you could power through, and you're now feeling better. You are an amazing person and role model, I hope you never forget it
Im so so happy for you ally!🫶 The way you were brave enough to move to a different city and meet the Jonas brother ( Which is very exciting cause I like their music as well) Happy 100k you 100% deserve this! You have helped me and many others with the positivity you have and what you stand up for. Love you lots ally and love the 1989 tv era your in rn💙📷
I just adore you
What a wholesome video. Thank you for also talking about all of your feelings... makes me feel less alone. And maybe I can do more things alone.
Your videos bring me so much happiness!! So happy for you Ally 🫶🏻
Congrats on your move to NY. Your health (physical, mental, etc.) is definitely most important and you are awesome at prioritizing yourself. ❤ Continue to take care of yourself.
I love how open you are Ally! Thank you for showing us your vulnerable side, it sure inspires me seeing how you keep persisting even when times are hard. I also have a lot of difficulties acknowledging my emotions, so you inspire me not being so hard on myself. Love from Brazil!
I also have to say I love the vlog style! I don’t watch a lot of vlogs but I really enjoyed this :))
So thankful you shared all these feelings with us Ally! You are loved 🥰
Thank you for talking so openly about your anxiety 💗
Congratulations on everything what a journey it hits different.
I loved this ally❤ from antoher anxiety girl it is always so encouraging to se someone ”owning” their life and health issues. I know how hard it can be when anxiety hijacks your brain. But i have also realized that the more i try to lean in and listen och just do what i need in those moments i will come out with a feeling of a fresh start and have much more gratitude for things in life. This video was so wholesome and thanks for your bravery to be vulnerable och share, i admire people who do this because it makes it feel so much more okey. So glad i found you channel when i was i alone in an apartment in a new city last year☺️ hugs from sweden
Ally you are literally the cutest. I will totally watch this whole video later when i'm off work. Enjoy your NY era!
So happy for you, Ally ❤ thanks for sharing
thank you ally. thank you thank you. i really needed this. so much love ❤️❤️
I didn't realize you were moving! That's awesome! I completely understand the challenges of grief and anxiety. These past few months for me have been awful but I finally decided medication can't be avoided when you need it and I think I'm finding my way out. You are such an inspiration to me! ❤
I've been experiencing a lot of social anxiety since the pandemic and it helps me breath a little easier knowning that I'm not alone, thank you for this Ally ❤
totally not alone pal
I’m so happy you got to enjoy your time in New York, and meet the boys! That’s so exciting! And thank you for being so open about your mental health, you really inspire me to be more forgiving of myself❤
I so needed to hear about your experience. I'm in kind of the same mental state but whole different situation, but your story feels very applicable, so thank you 💕
so thrilled you’ve moved to nyc i know you’re really gonna love it here WELCOME BABY i’m so proud of you
i’m so happy that you’re living your life to the fullest, you’re so awesome
I’m going to New York City by myself next year and I can’t wait! Your video definitely helped me! ❤
I’m so happy you talked about your anxiety, I feel the EXACT same things and nobody understands what I mean when I talk to them about it. It’s really comforting to know that someone is going through the same things that I do. I hope it will get better for us someday, until then let’s just keep pushing ourselves💖 I also feel you with the grief part as well, it is extremely hard to cope with, thank you for opening up.
Ps. I’m so proud of you for ending up going to the concert!! You deserved it💕
Thank you for talking about grief and its random and unexpectedness and that it will get better. Really needed to hear that today. Thank you ❤
I think all of us who watch you helped give you a little confidence and energy ✨️ you are so brave and so incredible. Thanks for sharing, I lost my dad and everything you shared was so helpful. ❤
Ally you are such an inspiration to me! Taking a chance, facing your anxiety head on and pushing through while being honest with yourself is beyond strong. I struggle with anxiety, social anxiety and have become a homebody since the pandemic so it makes me feel less alone hearing you be so open and honest about your struggles. I'm over here in Rhode Island like a couple hours away so I'm sending you love and strength 😘
Dealing with loss, is something I'm pushing through as well and I love your advice to sit with your grief and eventually it will shift into something else. I am hoping that happens for us all soon ❤
Now I cannot believe you got to see and meet the Jonas Brothers as a fellow JoBroHo I am beyond excited for you!! Kevin is my favorite, I just love how kind and genuine he seems. So it makes me so happy to hear that he really is! I didn't get to see them, so thank you for sharing some videos!!
Ally I just want you to know that your literally one of my comfort youtubers, an d my day gets so much better when I watch you, I've been here from the start and I'm so proud of how far you've come, congratulations on all the milestones you've achieved and here's to achieving more💗
Ahw I saw your posts on the Jonas Brothers at insta, so hearing you hesitating to go is so hard hitting! It's really relatable, as girl that also has anxiety. Putting the respect for your body over something you really want to do. Its hard, but its so nice to see the mindset you've worked on to really have that self/body-respect. And I'm so happy you could still go! ^-^ Thank you for being so open!
CONGRATS ON 100K!! You are my absolute favorite comfort person to watch, as a fellow swiftie you just feel like an older sister or friend and we're talking on factime!! Also a NYC vlog!! You are really in you're 1989 era moving to NYC and releasing 1989 TV!! SOOO proud of youuuuuuuu! YOU DESERVE THE WORLD!! I would loveeeeeeee more vlogs like this!! Also meeting THE JONAS BROTHERS?! I HOPE YOU HAD THE TIME OF YOU'RE LIFE!! Also I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed to go to NYC once in my life and play Welcome to New York as I'm landing and then walk Cornelia Street listening to Cornelia Street! ILY ALLYYYY
you are so strong, thank you for sharring this part of yourself with us
Ally! I just wanted to say that I've been feeling super lonely recently and your videos feel like receiving a warm hug from a friend 🥰 Thank you for being so vulnerable, I cried alongside you and I'm sending you lots of love. I hope you had the best time at camp and you're feeling better at the moment
I’m so happy for you that you got this experience! I honestly look up to you so much and you’re exactly who I want to be in life ❤ I love how candid you are in this video, as someone who struggles with anxiety that means a lot, and my dream is literally to work at a summer camp, so seeing you do it and have such an amazing time is amazing 😍
I know you were posting on Instagram throughout your whole trip and it was always nice to see the little notifications for you pop up over there, but there's something about the way you put this whole vlog together that just felt so intimate, like we were there with you, even though you were alone. Watching you embrace the full spectrum of your emotions, even when it was difficult, was such a privilege on our part; thank you for feeling safe enough with your audience to invite us in for every miserable *and* magical moment like this.
as someone who lost their dad two years ago, I felt this so deeply. Lately I’ve felt his presence more and it feels good just to sit there and keep his memory alive. When he first passed away I went to NY a couple of weeks after and the city just brought so much emotions out of me. Nothing better than crying in NYC knowing there’s countless of other people around you
You should be so proud of yourself! Thank you for feeling comfortable enough to share this vulnerable side of your life. I’ve gone through very similar experiences (grief, considering not going to an event because of anxiety, ect), and I can really relate to those feelings. I’m glad that you were able to change your mindset and enjoy the rest of the trip😊
This was such a wonderfully honest and beautiful video, Ally. My depression and anxiety have been so bad these past weeks that I’d had to cancel all my plans and I stopped counting the days since I last left the house. Grieving a parent and everything that comes with this pain is indescribable for me and I admire to strength you have to put it into words. I really needed to see this today and get back up on my feet to live my life the way my dad would want me to. To me, this felt like a conversation with a friend who understands how it feels and who I don’t have in real life. So thank you for being that person. I’m so proud of you, keep being you💜
SO HAPPY YOU CHOSE TO GO SEE THE BROS 🎉 i was so excited to see your pics on insta!
ALLLYY I relate so much to having anxiety (especially health related) at concerts/events and it’s so frustrating and isolating to feel like everyone else is existing so easily. so this was…… honestly healing for me. The ending of this video felt like an inspirational teen movie 10/10 thank you love you
I started following you last year because of your Taylor's videos but thank you for this vlog. My dad passed away by cancer on March of this year and sometimes I still can't believe he's really gone. Grief is truly a thing only a person who has experienced it knows how complicated it can be sometimes. And also it's amazing you got to meet the JoBros!!!
congrats on 100k!! love ur content sm 🩵
Thank you so much!!
I had a very hard time with my anxiety and depression this week and yesterday was one of the worst days. Opening of this video made me cry and made me calm and to feel love for myself again. I happen to get angry at myself for having anxiety and missing opportunities. Thanks for opening up and share about it. I'm so glad you went to the concert and had a great time. Much love. 🤍
thanks for sharing this experience with us, hope that ur okay now 😌 congrats, i'm so happy for you!
I moved to Brooklyn a year ago and my anxiety is worse than it’s ever been, and I’ve been struggling with wanting to feel lucky and amazing that I’m living in “the greatest city in the world” and that I’m taking it for granted. It makes me feel SO. MUCH. BETTER that I’m not the only one that struggles to get out of the house everyday. Honestly, seeing your insta stories of you going out everyday gave me motivation to go for a walk in the park or grab a coffee! So thank you ally for sharing your struggles and adventures it means so much!!💗💖💞💓💘
i haven't watched the whole video yet, but i do just have to say this: the first few minutes of this video just... means so much to me. i've had a really shit summer and hearing someone else say that their mental health shifted that much in just a few days has made me feel sooo much better. i started a new job (which is one of the reasons i've been so anxious this summer, i've been out of a job since covid) and as soon as i started my mental health just. skyrocketed. i haven't felt this well mentally for years and it was a day to day shift from one of the worst times of my life to my best. it's also super nice to see that you're doing (at least what seems to be) okay!!! girl you are literally glowing!!! sending you all the best
i have the EXACT same anxiety that you described. THANK YOU! this really means a lot, before you even started talking about anxiety i was like, i would not make it moving to a new city overseas, and then you stated talking about it and i was blown away about how accurately you described the SAME fears we have. this video made me realise it is possible. ususally we make situations worse and expect the worst, and when you just decide to do it you realise it isnt even that bad. THANKS!
AHHHH IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU! I was just in nyc and it was a magical experience! :)))
Ally I’m so glad you were able to go to the concert and thank you for making this video and talking about your mental health. I love you and your content and hope to meet you someday even though I live across the world.
Also as someone who also has chronic illnesses, traveling is SO extra complicated/exhausting. So many extra things to bring/worry about!
I’m so happy for you girl ! Sending loves and hugs ❤❤ congratulations on hitting 100k!!!❤
Thank you so much!!
Ally I just lost my dad yesterday thank you for making me feel like I’m not alone ❤️ thank you for your advice about grief
I am so sorry love, sending you the biggest hug
I’m SOOO happy for you!!!!!!! (But also I NEED a 1989 tv deep dive!!!!!)
absolutely coming when i get home next month!
YAYYYYYY!!!! 🫶🫶🫶🫶
You are 100% not alone!! I moved away from home for the first time in my life last year, and I can’t believe it’s coming up on my one year anniversary. I spent the first six months living in my new city totally numb, just laying in bed and doing nothing if I wasn’t working because my anxiety was so bad. I’m so proud of you for overcoming it in such a short amount of time, that’s so impressive!! You are doing amazing things!!
As a native New Yorker, welcome!! And the city isn’t as scary as it seems once you get the hang of the subway! You are so awesome and brave and wish you all the best in this new chapter. Can’t wait to watch what’s next!!
🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵
CONGRATULATIONS MS. ALLY 🎉🎉
I first became a fan of Jonas Brother before I became a Swiftie. It was 2006. The best years! And watching this blog makes my heart warm and nostalgic. Plus, I will always love how sincere and open you are with us. All the best, Ally! 💕
So Happy For You! Also love the matcha! 💚
i am so so SO happy for u ally!
You seem so sweet, genuine and nostalgic. That's the reason I am a subscriber. It's sometimes hard to talk about the ups and downs but that's what makes you relatable. Don't we want to feel like we connect with someone even if we never met? I also have anxiety and I can't imagine traveling solo so give yourself props for that! Hope all is well with you!
Aww yay Ally! Loved this vlog and love to see you so happy back at camp and in NYC! ❤ And thank you for being so vulnerable, so proud of you
Thank you so much!!
I've had a difficult relationship with my father, and his passing brings a lot of complicated and conflicting feelings to the surface, but I just wanted to let you know you're not alone in your grief. It never fully goes away, but it gets easier with time
I’m so happy for you!!!!!
Congrats on 100K subscribers!
She’s such an angel!
So amazing that you've moved to NYC. Enjoy the City. Glad you toughed it out.
This was so cool Ally, you're the best and I'm so happy for you 🌟🌟🌟
