Overcoming self-doubt and getting out of an emotional rut|| a week of ups & downs in my life ⛅️

Hello, friends!
Thank you so much for being here 💛 I purposefully keep my videos mostly light-hearted but I do always make an effort to be honest with you all about how I'm feeling and what I'm going through. This winter has been extremely difficult for many of us in so many ways... I've felt very lost and super insecure.
I let myself become OBSESSED with numbers-- subscriber count, views, likes, dislikes, comments, etc. I've become rather addicted to checking the "status/progress" of literally every single thing I've shared on social media and it's had a toxic impact on my overall opinion of my self and mental health.
This behavior has to stop. And so, I'm making an active effort to redefine what success means to me and to be mindful of where I find validation. I've always begun to repeatedly tell myself "I am not defined by numbers" anytime self-doubt starts to creep in.
I'm SO immensely grateful for this community-- each of you has been like a sunbeam in this dark foggy time ⛅️ We're all doing our best given the circumstances and that is more than enough 💛
The BIGGEST hug,
Morgan
