aww thank you guys for the overwhelming support in the comments on this video!! im feeling so excited & supported, and cannot wait to sharing my journey with you all!!
Welcome back Maisy! I’ve been supporting your channel and Etsy for years and will continue to do so. I’m very private as well, but I do love learning about new things and ideas just as passionately as you. Stay true to yourself.
I need to learn to make my own matcha drinks instead of buying it. Lol.
Hey Maisy! Love your content. Could you make a video explaining how you self-studied design?
Lov u
I'm glad I came across your channel. It's great to get to know you a bit. And you're an inspiration to me. I have so many interests and you've confirmed that I need to release my anxieties and keep moving forward.
Girl, I’m in IT and the sexism is UNREAL. It’s crazy. I feel for you, glad you were able to get away from that.
As another Asian American who's also in engineering (cloud), there's always people who don't take us seriously or look down on us, but I've learned over the years to focus on the great people around me and try to shut the others out.
I can't imagine the daily toll that hate comments and cyber bullies have, but we love your corner of the internet and hope to continue our support.
Thanks for what you do and stay cozy 🙏🏼😊
thank you so much 🥺 we are not alone 💛
Hey take it easy. You know, I'm in cloud/data and it's not only Asians it affects.
People are just people, but Its difficult for some to understand though. As has always been the case good people are rare.
Many companies talk up the team, but everyone has their own agenda.
The bottom line is, you gotta stay away from negative energy as much as possible in a work situation and in life in general. 😊
Why would they look down on u? You are so smart that's something to admire, and I do! 💗
Don't be discouraged. Your videos have inspired a lot of people. Including me.
So relatable bruh "obsessed with something this week and the next week ehh not feeling it anymore", anyways love your content, take care!
Omg another SMITE player!!! Also didn't realize you were so competitive😅love that dynamic. Thanks for the Q&A and I'm glad you're feeling better!
Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your journey. As a fellow woman in tech, I understand the gender bias and struggles. I really enjoy your videos and used them as inspiration for creating my own cozy home office.
Maisy as someone who also struggles with being a bit reserved but loves genuine connection + has a huge admiration for a cozy lifestyle, you and your personality are such an inspiration to me! Not just by the beautiful aesthetics you create but the personality and intention behind your videos! Thank you so much for sharing your journey and interests with us, it means more than words can say. Also, we would love any content you worked to share with us, piano videos already sound so interesting. ❤
I 100% agree with not confining yourself to "labels" such as the MBTI personality types. People are much more complicated and dynamic to confine themselves to specific labels.
Thank you for taking the time to make content it has brought me so much comfort! It has helped me immensely when creating my cozy desk setup and cozy lifestyle. I myself struggle with my mental health and I know life can be difficult and unpredictable. Give yourself the time and grace to heal and to feel. Thank you for sharing and being so vulnerable with us and seeking us out now that you are feeling a little bit better.
Thank you for giving us a warm and cozy videos, I always feels like healing when I watch your videos and I admire how you learn software engineering and design by yourself. It's not easy to be self taught but you made it. Don't be afraid to be yourself, you're a great person and be proud of it.
Hi Maisy! I've been watching your videos for about a year...? now and your channel has grown so much in that short period of time. That alone shows how many people love watching your videos. I always find your videos very relaxing, cozy, and inspiring. There will always be people who bring negativity, and that's about them not about you. Just know that there are way more people who support and love your work (even if they never comment, I rarely comment on videos too). Thanks for putting yourself out there, being vulnerable, and sharing your journey with all of us. 💗And always take care of yourself and your mental health first!
I just hope you know you are kicking ass in everything you do! Literally one of my favorite creators and im so happy you didn't let those past experiences limit you and became the amazing entrepreneur that you have become!
Thank you for being here! I really love your cozy videos and getting to know more about you.
When you shared the anxieties and doubts you experience, I was honestly surprised because you seem like you are a huge shining light. You’ve definitely inspired me and encouraged me in videos before. I’ve gone through so much of what you described, you’re not alone, just let the bullying end internally and don’t judge yourself. Nothing external can touch you when you’re your own biggest fan! Being on the internet can make us into our own worst critic. Embrace every part of who you are and don’t let the lies dull your shine. Yes to all the personal/piano/match videos to come! 💚
The vibe of your videos has had such a positive impact on my life as I work through my own trauma. I also was one of two girls in my mechanical engineering program (thought I’d be safe being a tomboy / misogynistic pick me tbh) and ended up switching majors. Had a rude awakening when I started working too. I feel you and I’m so so glad you’re here making videos :’) 💕 In those moments where your brain starts lying to you, remember that I 100% promise you your work means a lot to so many of us, and it’s important and needed in this world! You’re inspiring 💕
That last question was so sweet and so real. Thank you for continuing to make content and being so open ♥
Aww love this QA Maisy!! I love that you share your stories and more of you! I can definitely relate to a bit of your struggles and how determined you are. You’re so strong and inspiring! I’m glad you’re back! 😊💕
Happy you're back! Really missed your videos, they make me feel so calm. Also thanks for sharing all of this and beeing so vulnerable 🥰
so glad you chose to share a little bit about you! it’s sweet to be able to relate to a creator i enjoy! keep listening to truth and put away the lies others and even you will tell yourself. good job resting! keep going ❤
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It takes a lot for people to put themselves out there but it helps so many people see the real life behind creators. I can resonate a lot with the imposter syndrome as a software engineer. There are so many people in so many different stages of their life doing similar things. One really needs to ground themselves in their skills, their areas they're working on, and their own enjoyment. I enjoy seeing all your "cozy vibes" as it reminds me to bring enjoyment to my work without it all being business. I can focus on how I bring ME into my own workplace but also mental workspace. Thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, experiences, and feelings! The hard work you put in shows! I'm very grateful to have found your channel and will support you in whatever you do next:) Take care!
Thank you for opening up and being so generous Maisy! Loved this Q & A 💗
Hello Maisy !😊 We love your cozy content. Keep going and take care yourself! 😊
girl i love your content a lot, you are truly an amazing creative person. as a fellow girl interested in the same stuff, it is soo nice to see a cozy content creator who does coding, design and own a business while also enjoying playing games and having an extreme cozy aura that just make you relax. and please don't worry about being reserved or private some people just appreciate a bit of themselves for themselves, i honestly consider it a way of expressing self love.
aww i love this 💛thank you so much!
that last message for your 15-year-old self resonated a lot to many people, including me right now though I'm older than you are right now, thank you for making meaningful and cozy videos. would love to see that matcha videos soon ❤
Hey! I just wanted to say that I love your videos and other content so much ❤ I particularly enjoy watching your videos that show your design processes (like your yearly calendar) and how you’ve set up your calm and relaxing workspace. Thank you for always being so genuine and for the cozy vibes 🥰
I absolutely love watching your Cozy videos. Please take a break when needed, the people who care about will be here when you come back ❤️❤️
So happy to see your face!! Love that you're taking care of you but look forward to your return ❤🎉
So many drops of wisdom. I love your videos! Keep doing what you’re doing. You seem like such a genuine, down to earth person and it’s crazy that there are people who want to tear you down. But that’s life & you can’t control that. So just keep those blinders on and keep moving forward. You obviously have so many people who support what you do and need content like yours. 💜 I’ve recently transitioned into a front end dev role and your desk setup at home is my dream hahaha
Thank you so much for opening up! Your videos always bring me a sense of calm and joy. It is my comfort content whenever I feel like I want to slow down and remind myself to enjoy each moment and the space I spend my time in. Please don't let the negativity discourage you because I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way. You are truly an inspiration for me and I can't wait to continue watching your journey 🤍
I'm so happy to see how far you've come from school. I love the story of your love story - very cute!
I wasn't expecting to see a more personal video from you but I really enjoy hearing about you and youre life more. I'm here for all of it - just make sure you (and your family/team) are comfortable with what you share :)
Joining the discord!
hey Maisy! love your return as a q&a - i relate a lot to what you were saying about being "obsessed with something one week and over it the next" and i thought i was so alone in feeling that way. love learning more about you but also totally understand the importance of boundaries, especially in our hyper-connected world. looking forward to seeing what you come up with next 🤍
Hearing your story makes me realize that you are strong! Please do take care of yourself! and oh! I am interested in seeing you make your matcha recipes and also anything related to your piano.
I love your videos! You may not feel like you're impacting someone's life, but you have improved my days by watching your videos! Sending you much much love.
I’ve been watching your videos last one year or so and I really enjoy all of them! Thank you for everything you’ve been sharing with us :)
Thank you for the Q&A Maisy! You’re so strong, beautiful and smart thank you for the inspiration and welcome back ❤
Take the time you need to rest! We will always be here to support you and cheer you on. No one creates cozy content like you!
thanks for always posting the comfy shorts, It really does make my day better! :)
Love to get to know you a bit better! I think it’s so brave to make such personal q&a‘s for CZcams or the internet in general! I really love your channel and your content!
Please give us more of your piano content I would love to see it! Big supportive love from Germany
I loved this video. It’s great to know more about you and your background, both personal and professional. Your videos are very inspiring and calming for me, and thanks to this one now I think you give a more authentic vibe. I struggle with being authentic myself and show my feelings, thoughts and interests not only online, but also in real life and this video and all the support you got from your community made me think about how lovely and cool is to have the courage to show yourself and discover that there’s always someone that you can connect with. ❤
I loved getting to know you! Definitely do more of these! It’s nice to see how you take on obstacles in your life and the light you see in the world ☺️
Maisy, you are incredible! I really enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing and looking forward to seeing more ❤
What a lovely video! It's so sweet how you talk about Tristan. I've also always appreciated how you call out all the racism and sexism for what it is. Big fan!
Loved the video! Welcome back! Your story of how you became an engineer and designer is literally how i feel rn. The tought of creating something ppl can use is fascinating. Of course we care about you! Funny cuz i am 15 and i want to do so much. I do wonder if i can find some kind of online job. Besides i also learn to play guitar and maybe someday piano too! Remember that bullies reflect their own insecurities on you and they are just jealous. They simply just don t have what to do with their own tragic sad pathetic life. You are truly an inspiration
We support you. You do incredible content that makes the world a better place. Take your time ❤
Maisy, your videos are amazing, the editing, themes, colors, all of it! Haters project their own insecurities onto people that are accomplishing their own goals. It takes a strong person to deal with such hate, and that strong person is you! Your videos have inspired me to learn coding and more about tech. I'm excited to support more of and see the growth of your channel, business, and self-love journey!
Thank you for sharing. You’re vibe and office setting inspire me when it comes to creating my own cozy space. As well as working toward my tech dreams! And I enjoyed the video you shared when you and your family took a trip to the city. 😊
Thanks for taking the courage for sharing! Really enjoy your videos!
You always bring a pleasant feeling in your videos. Always be like that, Maisy!
I start everyday watching your videos. I have coffee and breakfast while I watch them. Your vibes are so positive and motivating. It's the perfect way to start the day. Thank you for being you 🌸
This is such a great video! I love getting to know you more. Soo happy to have found you a few months ago on here. Def a bright spot on the internet. Very inspiring
Love to see more videos on 3D projects, product development and maker space things… very touching and authentic qna video indeed ❤
A lot of people, including myself, have different interests. We were told from young age to stay focused and that we can only pick one thing and sacrifice the rest. By being so determined to blend your interests together and put your work out there, you’re helping us see the possibilities. Thank you for doing that.
Also appreciate that you’re opening up. Definitely want to get to know you more in the future! Of course at your pace. I wasn’t sure if its appropriate to ask you personal questions.
thank you for inspiring this Q&A video!! im so happy that sharing my story has helped you and others 💛🥹
I love your voice 😭 its so calming.
Maisy, thank you for taking the time to share a bit more with us! You have such a beautiful soul, and I know I speak on behalf of your community that we love your content and cozy vibes! Your videos make me feel calm, centered, and always in a better mood. 🥹 Thank you for being you. Can’t wait for more videos (and yes to that matcha 🍵 video 🤤)
Been a huge fan of the channel for a year now. Your channel always calms me. Appreciate you and your family videos. Everyone brings something unique to the table. There will always be those who try to put you down, but honestly a lot of them are jealous… Grammatically and articulately in the way those who write hater comments obviously have no intellect or class. You will always rise above. Keep doing the videos. You are so awesome!!!! 🤘😎
You are truly a class act, thank you for sharing with us.
Maisy you are an inspiration (especially for us women breaking into tech). Your vision and way of doing tech motivates me a lot. Please keep on enjoying your journey and sharing it with us. Love u a lot and wish you the best.🥰
Maisy you’re the best! I love your content ❤ thank you for sharing !!
I just recently found you from your aesthetic gaming setup on my tiktok, and then your shorts showed up on my youtube and now I'm here! I love all of that stuff and it's nice to get ideas from.
Love the honesty in this video!
Have seen your videos and Instagram clips for some time now. Mental health is important so good on you to take that break. Just started this CZcams account and Wanted to say thank you for the motivation to pursue this new direction in programming and art. Keep Going !
Thank you so much for making amazing and inspiring videos! I really enjoy your videos a lot! ❤
Hello Maysi, I am currently studying systems engineering and I love design a lot, what you do inspires me a lot, I love the idea of being able to mix the two things and as you said being able to bring an idea to life, I would love to be able to do it in the future. I hope you keep uploading more videos, you are a great inspiration for many and it also helps us to learn. Cheers and I send you greetings from Argentina.
Great video. I just came across your channel today so it was great timing to have a "get to know you" video to come out. Looking forward to seeing more of what you create, I've really enjoyed it so far.
Always love your videos ❤ They're like a warm and cozy hug after a long day. Keep following your dreams despite the haters! Usually they're just jealous ;) You rock 🤟
Keep up the great work. It takes courage to put yourself out there! Enjoyed the video!
We’re here with you ❤️
Awesome video! You and the team are doing a wonderful job! Keep that boulder rolling! 💪🏼 you’re a huge inspiration to many!
I don't say much but I watch your videos all of the time because they're so calming. I also love the relationship you have and Tristan have with your sister. It's very beautiful.
I would love to hear your piano compositions. Piano is something I always wanted to learn but never did. So, I'm definitely looking forward to that.
You're an awesome young lady who is a great role model.
You are amazing, please keep making videos I love them they bring me so much happiness and joy
I know the tech industry some people don't take our job seriously, but I think you are brilliant. As someone who loves designing and work as a web developer, I really appreciate your videos, you inspire me a lot
Maisy!! Thank you so much for answering the question I had :) - congrats on being full-time entrepreneur!! Sending lots of love and positivity!! 💓
I also LOVE kdramas and csdramas for relaxing and playing pvp games, so relatable! I love that you've been so open and sharing more about yourself! 😊
aww thank you very much for the great question & support! i had a lot of fun answering them 💛🥹
It’s so lovely seeing you open up and seem more relaxed! Perfectionism is boring (I tell myself 😬) I enjoyed getting to know more about you.
Your videos make me so happy! Thank you for being so awesome!!
You are literally my favorite CZcamsr
I’m so glad you took the break. The world is such a cruel place. Love your content and it helps me to push myself to believe in what I do. Love the idea of a matcha video! Would be amazing to see!!
Oh god, I was waiting a lot for that video !!
I started watching your videos from the start and actually, I keep watching them for you, you are a talented person and your videos are very nice and cozy, they make me feel safe and inspired to do more or just to relax really ❤🌱
I like your discord channle its so fun to go through 💕
I love you and your videos so much Maisy! I’ve been wanting to start my own channel so bad lately and you’re one of my biggest inspirations! I know the hate can really suck, but you have a community of people like me who love what you do!! ❤
You rock🤘. I really like the content you produce, it's original and always creative. keep it up!
You are inspiring. From the Discord, to the ideas, to your vibes, and to your gentle voice. I would say you are inspiring. Thank you Maisy, may God open doors for you. Thank you very much.
Salam!
Maissyy huhu haters hating on you is just living proof that you've made it (at least from my perspective). You're amazing and my inspiration TT I really gravitate towards the "wanting to create ideas" and not just code or design, i felt that TT Thanks so much for your videoss, keep it up!
I enjoyed watching this video, Maisy. It’s been so fun watching your journey and how you have grown and evolved. Your process and being open about it, but also keeping things to yourself as everything is not our business. Those things are precious and have no use to us other than for people to be nosey and create their narrative. But everything else you choose to share is so relatable, inspiring, and therapeutic.
I can see your skin getting tougher with all the toxicity in this journey. For every one of them, there is someone who genuinely loves your work. It may be part of the job, but it’s not something you have to tolerate. You’re grounded and have your sister and Tristan and your dad with you! All of you have given me the energy I crave! Also, I’m way too into matcha now! Haha.
Thank you, Maisy 🙏🏾🖤
nathan!! thank you so much for this sweet comment. 💛🥹 always appreciate your support and advice!
Thank you for sharing, your story, thoroughly enjoy your channel. I find it calming to watch.🥀
Yes! Matcha! Not just baking, matcha drinks too! Can't believe people bully you...just know that these bullies are bored and have no purpose in life. Your channel has been inspiring and uplifting. Thank you!
loved this ❤ we like you! believe in yourself moreeeeee 💖💖💖💖💖
great video maisy! so much fun to see a more personal side of you. hope you're well :)
Very encouraging Maisy 😊 all we need is Faith and Help from above ❤
"...overcome them, and not listening to the devil on my shoulder" gosh i felt that 😩 the struggle is reeeaal with the imposter syndrome and all that
Hi Maisy. I'm Asian and I'm a woman coder. Your videos have been inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing and I feel less alone to know your channel. Good luck to all your future endeavours. ❤
Wow it’s crazy to hear that you have to deal with so much hate - which is honestly terrible but I’m justvheat to say that I LOVE the videos you make, the aesthetic, the style, the vibe - like you deserve everything you built up! It’s really inspiring I’m always looking forward to seeing your videos and shorts❤❤❤
Love your content!
it’s helped me get over the fear starting to learn about tech stuff despite coming from a more poor/secluded/feminine background and I have been having a blast here so far ❤
I hope the business goes well! You are inspiring so many of your viewers every video 💕
Thanks a lot for sharing you personal life with us. Keep strong and happy.
Thank you for sharing, as it was very moving for me, and I understood exactly what you were talking about especially on anxiety as result of bullying.
Hi Maisy! I watch your CZcams videos because they’re immaculately made and transmit a wonderful vibe of cozy productivity. It inspires me every time, and that’s why I click straight away as soon as I see one of your new videos. A great book I found for anxiety: The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holliday 😊
Love this so much! ❤
I feel like this is so relatable for me the thing u said about living something then next week something else and the extravert and social anxiety
You rock! Keep doing you. Great video.
matcha recipes video :o woooo!!!!!! also, thank you for persevering and existing :) You inspire me as a woman in tech!
