THERE IS A SCAMMER in my comments replying to everyone’s comments and saying they’re the winner! Ignore the scammer please! I am manually removing their comments and blocking them. They left over >400 comments but I want everyone to stay safe.
I reported them as spam!
No wonder it is a bogus message. The phone number did indicate that it is a US based # and not Canada based #. I did not bother replying because I felt the message was too good to be true 🙂
I got so excited 😭
thank you for removing them 😌
The same happened to me, but I remembered you said the giveaway will be due on 17th xD
For all the women that face struggles in the STEM fields, we got this, our confidence comes from our inner strength and from the support we give each other.
we got this 💗 we are sooo smart no matter what any man could tell us and we are capable and belong in this field 🌱
Thank you I screenshotted this comment !! It is hard - we’re not alone in the struggle !

@@bsofiasandoval but women don’t put other women down just as much???
Ironically, watching soothing WFH videos like yours is how I stay calm and productive at work! #ergonofis I feel so motivated to settle into work when I watch videos by women like yourself who are making the most of their spaces at home.
I really enjoy your videos because not only they're cosy and relatable, but I love your energy! Recently at work I've been feeling super tired and unenergised but seeing you work hard motivates me to do my best at my job too. 🥰
It was a pleasure watching you come from behind the camera, being personal with us regarding your experiences and journey as a woman in STEM. I'm happy to support you and would love to see more of these "non-scripted open chats". You're awesome. Keep doing YOU!
Ahh thank you so much! More to come :)
I do love the chats you have with us between showing us what your day is like. I am a woman in tech who comes from a part of the world were innovative and curious women are deeply frowned upon. I've recently been facing such discrimination but seeing women like you out here doing your thing just makes me feel like I'm not alone and my gender is not an obstacle. I'm also a Front End Engineer still in her second year in university
You got this girl! Keep doing your thing and crushing it out there! 💛 We are in this together!
@Winnie Nice to meet a fellow aspiring developer. If you're looking to go into developing and designing, I suggest Computer Science because it covers both of those and many others.
@Winnie Same here. You just have to overcome it and do your best
"If you did nothing wrong, you don't have anything to be afraid about."
I love your quotes. Thanks Maisy!
wow thank you so much for sharing, maisy. i feel like there aren’t enough conversations or recognition for women in the CS field so thank you for bringing more awareness. something i do to stay productive is being honest with myself of what my mind & my body needs (breaks, food, stretch, etc). moreover, i like to release a lot of stress by catching up with friends. having a support system is super important and i never realized the importance of community until i had it. last, sometimes watching a really sad movie or scene goes a long way to relieves me of anything that holds me back!
As a woman studying cybersecurity and being the only girl in my class, I really appreciate your advice for women in stem! You really give great representation for women in stem and you're a great role model for kids looking to get into the field. I've been loving your channel for a little bit now I'm striving to become as organized and productive as you! I stay calm by lighting candles, organizing any out of place items when I can, and listening to lofi beats to get into a productive groove! #ergonofis
Wow. Thanks for being vulnerable and honest with answering those questions.
The same rings true in the architecture field with women/minority so I can understand it in some ways. I didn't expect the CZcams hate though. Keep grinding, Maisy! You're doing great!
Loved getting to learn more about your journey and all you’ve been through, it’s such an important message to get across and it’s amazing how much you can inspire! There’s been so many roadblocks in your way, but it’s amazing to see how you’ve overcome that and how you create these safe places for not just you, but for everyone you can reach ☺️☺️
I enjoyed the Q&A so much, pls do more. Love seeing you talk like that. You're such an inspiration.
wow i really enjoyed your q+a maisy! i loved hearing your story of how you started career and how we need to stand up for ourselves as women. we can't let others beat us down, and it's something I definitely need to work on more. Thank you for being so inspiring and such a good role model to follow!
aww grace! love yous and keep being you!
I love expressing femininity and my style within my workspace, whether that be through minimalist decorations or beautiful finishes on products like desks and tech. I like to express my style in subtle ways which creates a calming atmosphere while avoiding clutter! #ergonofis
i love your cozy aesthetic @maisyleigh! during this COVID season of school being online, i manage my productivity using my schedule: using notion (inspired from your other video!) & google calendar, cleaning my studio space, & stretching! i believe #ergonofis will definitely keep me accountable of prioritizing my physical needs.
#ergonofis As a medical student who is in the hospital all the time, what motivates me to study afterwards and what calms me after a long day is an aesthetic desk setup along with some soft jazz music.
I love this! As a girl who spends literally 18 hours a day at my desk, working full-time as a Programmer while studying Finance part-time on night classes and weekends on a scholarship it is very difficult to get enough movement into my day.
I have insane neck pain and migraines sometimes, so I believe being in having the right environment and setup is key to improving your health and productivity. So what actually makes me calm and productive is cleaning up my setup! Creating a clean and calm space at the end of every night is soothing. Plus having a setup that I like and can work efficiently is a dream.
it's great to see other Asian women owning it in the digital field.
#ergonofis
Because of my anxiety, I tend to prefer working remotely and having my humidifier on, some chilled out music and I also have a calming light show in my room to mimic traffic lights, the sunrise or just a general colourway depending on my mood. So being a part of this #ergonofis giveaway will be something I'd love to win and help me keep that calming vibe carrying on into my new home office that I'm trying to build.
“if you did nothing wrong. you don’t have anything to be afraid about” ❤ thank you maisy 😊
Thank you for sharing your experience, I needed to hear your advice today.
Please do more videos on your cozy place, It's very relaxing to watch.
Can you make a video about how u got into CS or how u found passion in it? Because you said at the beginning you had not that much interest in CS. btw great content! :)
Thank you maisyleigh! You really taught me that it’s ok to express my identity towards others despite what they say about me. As a gay male I face a lot of homophobia from my peers and over these past two years I’ve been trying to change the way I am just so they’d accept me. But you taught me that’s it’s ok to be who I am and to be strong regardless of whatever I face.
That sucks dude, and I'm really sorry. I (a bi cis-male) don't face a lot of homophobia and I feel really lucky for it. Wish you the best of luck 💜
@@ThatOnePaulGuy Thank you
This is sick! Some good jazz, blues or ambient music keeps me calm and productive no matter the weather! All the best.
everything in my room is filled with things i love. so it allows me to feel comfortable the whole time i'm in it
I just found masyleigh's content and LOVE it. I work in education in CS & IT and love seeing a strong female example who isn't afraid to make her work space pretty and feminine - even if it requires a bit more work to customize. I hope to put something similar together for myself with the #ergonofis setup. As a CS teacher, having a space where I enjoy spending time is vital. The right music is my go-to calm and productive strategy right now, but I hope to up my game with some aesthetic improvements over the next few weeks.
As a graphic designer, I stay cozy in my space with my Ikea shelving, cozy ergonomic desk chair, and would absolutely love an #ergonofis desk to add to my office set up! It’s so important to stay productive in a positive and efficient environment! Love your content! xo
great stuff as always, Maisy! You're such an inspiration for STEM and the positive changes that *must* be made.
I’m really enjoying your content! I love combination of tech and coziness. Keep up the great work!
I'm a woman who loves tech, so I really needed to hear you say those things
I just found your channel and I love it. I'm also a woman in tech - I'm in UX research and design. The higher up I go, the more I see men and feel out of place. I've been in meetings where I'm the only woman and person of color among 6 men. Really cool to see someone online who looks like me and validates these issues.
I also love your setup so much. I stay productive and calm in my workplace by keeping it organized. I haven't pulled the trigger to start decorating so it's somewhat barebones, but I'm inspired by your videos to get started! #ergonofis
You're such an inspiration! I love your setup and just the energy that you radiate through your videos. I've been trying to get more into programming and coding but I honestly don't even know where to begin.
Wow, I've been watching your content recently and you inspire me so much to setup my work environment with a cozy vibe!
I love your desk setup! I stay productive in my workspace by clearing any distractions and taking breaks. #ergonofis
When it comes to staying productive in my workspace, I enjoy having warm lights around me and I cannot start my day without having a lit candle next to me to keep me relaxed throughout the day. #ergonofis
You’re one of the reason I’m pursuing front end development and possibly share my journey with people in the future. ❤️
This was a fantastic video; Having a mix between the script, great camera work and the improvised Q&A made for a generally great vibe !
I love this! As a girl who spends hours upon hours of her day at her desk, it is very difficult to stay productive. I believe being in the right environment and having your setup nice and welcoming is very key to boost your productivity. So what actually makes me calm and productive is switching up my setup! Adding new things, getting a rid of things.. change is good and is needed when you spend a lot of time in your space :) #ergonofis
Absolutely love that keyboard! Glad to see another designer indulge in lo-fi beats while they work, something I usually do as well to maintain my composure while working :) #ergonofis
I've been obsessed with your videos for the past recent months and really enjoyed seeing your desk/mac setup videos! Ever since viewing your desk setup videos, the ergonofis table and cabinet have both definitely gone straight to my wish-list. #ergonofis
First off I want to say that I love your cozy setup and how much warmth that it brings to me every time I watch your content! For me how I stay calm and productive is that every morning before I walk over to my setup to get ready to get my day started I always make myself a green tea latte. I feel that making myself a green tea latte brings me so much enjoyment and peaceful feeling drinking something soothing. When I walk over to my setup I make sure I have my blinds on my window turned so I can get some natural sunlight lighting up in my space. First thing getting to my space is I make sure to make a to do list for the day so I can have a calm mind and not have to think about what I have to do for the day while I work. Then when I have everything set I put on something chill music like lofi and start work. Currently I've been listening to the three hour Animals Crossing sound track while I'm working throughout the day as it provides productivity and calmness while working. I do sit all day working on the computer so this give away would help me stand and stretch my legs while still being productive and helpful to my back :) #ergonofis
Thank you for sharing your lovely setup & cozy workspace with us. Recently, I've felt like it has been difficult for me to be productive with my studies in the midst of all that's going on in my life. But your videos have been absolutely helpful with making me stay calm and truly love my workspace. I now have a space that feels more peaceful, cozy, and more "me." It's amazing how much of a difference little things like a cup of warm tea, dim lights, and soft background music can make. I feel motivated to make the best of my day & get everything done. Thank you, Maisy #ergonofis
As a WOC who recently got into tech, I absolutely love your cozy and relatable vibes. I need to make a daily task list in order for me to stay focused at work. #ergonofis
#ergonofis
I absolutely adore watching chill vlogs, home office setups, and cooking videos to offset my days !! A tasty beverage with some snacks is the perfect way to end a day or start a weekend. Your videos are a total inspo for wfh setups, and the choice of soothing music is just 👌🏻 hits all the right spots.
It was so nice to hear a non-scripted mini-Q&A from you, Maisy! I’m not in tech, but I am in medicine and medical research, and I know exactly how you feel. As an Asian woman in my field, I relate heavily with your experiences; this all makes me want to give you a big hug! You’re right-it isn’t your responsibility to prove yourself to anyone. Please don’t let their comments get you down. If anything, the hate is proof that you’re doing so well you’re now attracting envy.
As someone from tech too, I love contents like this... knowing someone else experiences the same feeling towards our field is comforting. I hope more women gets into tech.
A clean and cozy space is my solution for productivity. Lately, I've been feeling so lazy in my desk so I keep experimenting. I also like adding candles for a cozy feeling, just a bit afraid our house might blow up so I dont light it up when I'm not around lmao #ergonofis
Well said Maisy! Love your content and find it really inspiring. I am an Aerospace Engineer during the day but really want to transition in to iOS & UI/UX work, I've realised I am actually a bit more creative than I first thought. Would love to see more videos on your journey so far and the tools you use, and how you use them. Thanks again!
I am a person that can't concentrate. It's really annoying during tests and exams. Especially the ones that are important to school and my future. And with all the stress at school, the way for me to relax at home and escape all the stress and homework is gaming. Playing some sims is really relaxing depending on how you play. :)
I love your videos! They’re so simple and relaxing but so nice to watch!
I know I'm late, but I just wanted to say I totally loved this video, especially the mini Q&A! I think this is the first time I've seen you talk right in front of the camera. You definitely should appear much more often in your videos. I'm sure many of your followers love seeing you.
I find that I get easily overwhelmed when working, and had never seen such a calm and cozy set-up until I found you on TikTok. I am so glad because I feel I finally see a work area set up where I could thrive!! Neutral tones, natural light, and cozy plant life in the office have very quickly become a necessity!! Thank you for all you do Maisy
The atmosphere I work in is so vital to my productivity. I disconnect from the problems of the outside world as soon as I step into my office. I love to have a comfy blanket around, turn my lights low, and put on some calming music. A clean workspace is vital, it is impossible to focus if you have clutter all around you. Your vibes are immaculate and I love watching your videos ❤ #ergonofis
thanks for chatting about the challenges us women face in STEM. It's been tough feeling left out especially in such a harsh environment. This was a good a reminder that we shouldn't let it discourage but instead motivate us and to really focus on ourselves
Even your voice is cozy, enjoying your content a lot thx for sharing
Love waking up to these videos. I keep calm & productive by constantly tidying and decluttering my space to keep it somewhat minimal and distraction free. #ergonofis
Great to hear your thoughts and experiences throughout your career in stem. So sorry to hear that people are petty enough to put you down, but like you said they're projecting their own insecurities onto you. Keep it up Maisy!
well, when im studying in my workspace, I usually turn off my phone so I don't get distracted and turn on nature or coffee shop sounds. i love what you do, your voice is so calming and you are literally so lovely. keep doing you! #ergonofis
i enjoy drinking warm cups of coffee on cold mornings, playing games, watching movies and listening to podcasts whilst getting ready in the morning! i sit at my desk for the majority of my day as i take online classes for college and i absolutely love editing videos
#ergonofis Comfy and hygge vibes means fairy lights, a cup or tea, pc setup items that are colorful, beautiful instrumental music too! Taking breaks often to look outside the window keeps me productive. 🌸
Thank you for creating these types of content. It really helps inspire me to upgrade my workspace and calm me down after work.
My job is mostly helping clients solve their problems in the property rental market. Therefore, I experience a lot of stress. It is quite important for me to not get railed up when customers are angry and frustrated. At work, I would listen to music that keeps me in a positive mindset. And at home, I try to destress and not think about things from work. Watching youtube videos like yours and indulging in my other hobbies really helps. RBG light strip really helps the transition as well (especially when I work from home) - at work, the lighting is natural and white light. Coming home to a playful rainbow colour setting help me transition out of work mode too. Being able to relax is one of the best things to keep one motivated and productive.
I am the type of person who would beat myself up when I make small mistakes and work myself to the bone because as per "Traditional work values". When I need encouragement to deal with the outside world and cut myself some slack, I would say to myself, "Why not" and "So what" ;)
Hope my experience is helpful too. #ergonofis
As an AFAB person in tech, the attitude you have on holding your ground is refreshing. Here's hoping tech becomes a more inclusive career for everyone!
you're such an inspiration
I love to have some calm music playing in the background. I also love natural light and having some fresh air flowing into the room. That keeps me awake and productive. I also love having small figures and plushies around to lift my mood. Thank you for the video!
#ergonofis
I love your content. I had the same experience in high school…but so happy I ended up as a software engineer. I’m also a FE engineer. 😊 I love doing design and code!
Love the Q&A and seeing a glimpse into part of your day. I just came across one of your videos on Tiktok that led me here. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to going through more of your content!
Another great video! Cozy, calming, and fun as always.
That was so cool and admirable to share your experience and ways to empower women in the same field and in general as you. You're opening doors!
As a male, I've been finding myself subscribing and or following more women's creative channels. Whether that's on Twitch, CZcams, or Instagram, there is a different energy. Something seems a bit more inclusive, a different perspective, a different presentation, and I enjoy supporting those hobbies that I also can relate to from a creative point of view. I like to think we’re all more alike than we know. At the same time, so much to learn from each other. As human beings, I like to think we all compliment each other. I have 3 sisters who I want to continue to set an example for and listen to and learn from.
Great video! I'd love to see a detailed walk through of your cable management system sometime!
This makes me proud to see this woman in a STEM field job and loves to be very organized. Same here, music makes my space what I’m feeling. Melodic music is how I get cozy.
I love the way you've set up your #ergonofis desk! So inspiring! One way I stay calm & productive is by taking breaks to walk around the block and stretch. This helps me reset before moving on to a new task (since I work from home). Thanks for sharing!
What beautiful and eloquent advice. Very well spoken. Your #ergonofis set up is so beautiful!
I love putting on a nice playlist and cleaning my office with a nice candle burning to focus and be efficient!
I hadn't decorated my space much over the pandemic just because it didn't feel very permanent to me and I didn't really want it to be. But when I realized I was going to be working from home on a more permanent basis, I decided to really make the space mine, and my number one consideration was calmness. I painted my walls a calming light sage green, bought new window coverings so I could enjoy the light coming through my windows, and introduced some plants into the space. The only space that isn't really calming is my desk. I'm figuring out what to do with my monitor (to mount or not to mount?) and how to organize my work, since I didn't have a dedicated space for it before. Right now, to stay calm and be more productive, I take timed breaks when I work so I can go away from my desk and sit somewhere more comforting. I also try not to push myself too hard, since I'm splitting my time between working and studying for the LSAT. Wish me luck!! #ergonofis
Loved the open chat at the end! Needed it more than ever! I’m leaving the medical field in active duty military in about 6 months. This pandemic has completely ruined and exhausted me physically, mentally, and spiritually. So I’ve been racking my brain about what to go back to school for. Computer science has interested me in the past. But i never saw any women in the field. But I’ve been following you for about 3 months now. And what can I say? You’ve inspired me! Wish me luck!
I really enjoyed your q&a today. It’s resonated and felt reassuring to me when you said “if you’ve done nothing wrong you don’t have to worry”. I recently decided to go back to school after deciding that me current career path wasn’t quite right for me. To keep me focus and productive on breaks I watch CZcams videos of people’s daily routine, home makeovers, or cooking videos. Watching other both calms me down and motivates me! #ergonofis
I personally study Software Engineering and I actually really love it that there are woman who are in the tech industry!
Loved your desk I really need for my self as well my current table is not comfortable for wfh. Please keep doing this kind of videos.
You’re videos are always so warm and calming! I try my best to be productive in my workspace by keep everything as minimalistic as possible. The simpler the better. #ergonofis
#ergonofis - these days I try to remain calm by watching your videos (especially your desk and lighting);). Kidding apart, I have been listening to meditative music at 417hz on Spotify to keep me calm and productive. Love your setup and videos! Keep them coming.
Love your cozy set up! The warm lighting is so inviting✨
I work from home and go to school full time. I’m majoring in Mathematics and love supporting women in other STEM fields. I’m currently taking a CS class as a requirement for my degree and quickly noticed I’m the only girl in the class. Although I’m majoring in another field, I related to what you said about this. I really appreciate your support and motivational words to keep going, so happy I came across your channel. You’ve created such a lovely safe space for us here in the comment section. Love reading everyone’s comments and ways they cozy up their space.
Since Im always at my desk, I turn on my diffuser too. I have a few Vitruvi oils but Moonlight is my go to!✨ I also went to Lowes and put up some wood shelves above my desk for plants. It’s my mini tropical plant wall that I love staring at. Anytime Im starting to feel anxious because I’ve been sitting all day, I stare up at them and practice mindfulness. Oh, and Spotify lofi beats are always playing in the background. Definitely recommend Walterwarm’s album Summer Break ✨
Only thing I’d love to invest in is a sit stand desk. That’s actually how I came across your channel recently. I was searching for desk setups and yours really inspired me! It’s exactly the type of vibe and aesthetic Im trying to go for. Keep up the great videos!! Thanks again for sharing all the good vibes!
#ergnofis
i literary just found your channel today and i love your content and your comfy voice! ❤️
I really love calm and cozy desks! I stay productive in my workspace with noise cancelling headphones it really helps me to stay productive for long hours . I love you calm and coziness in your videos really appreciate how hard you have been working for to make a video for motivating us!! #ergonofis
i stay calm at my at home workspace by drinking gallons of tea everyday and staring at the photos of my loved ones i have on my desk :) #ergonofis love you videos maisy!! you inspire me so much to put in the effort to creating an enjoyable productivity space, which has really changed my life
Lucky for me that CZcams recommended your videos :) Always happy to support quality content creators.
I stay productive at work by taking walks around the office and home, talk to colleagues and family whenever I feel myself getting distracted, get a fresh heading and start working again.
Thanks for organizing this giveaway and wish you all the best!
KEEP ON KEEPING ON!
#ergonofis
I love surrounding my study place with plants! Nature always makes me feel refreshed and grounded
I’m in love with your desk set up and work space, by far my favorite I’ve ever seen! ✨ As a college student and aspiring graphic designer, I spend a lot of time at my desk and a standing desk would be an amazing upgrade. Ways I stay calm and productive is maintaining an organized, neat work space, playing a chill lofi music playlist, and turning on some warm lighting for a relaxed ambiance. Obsessed with your channel! #ergonofis 💫
Love all of your videos. Keep Going. I like the Q and A in the video and your non -scripted chat. Do them more often. Waiting for your next video. You are really inspiring.
Just found your CZcams and I’m so happy I did!! Love your content
First thanks for creating this video. I been working from home for 6 months and I’m still figuring out a proper set up. A few ways I try to to stay productive are:
1. Taking breaks
2.Light a candle to make my environment nice

Your work station is a dream ! 😍 I love keeping a clean work space. I always try to clean and put everything away where they belong which really helps me have a clear mindset before I start working. The right lighting is also very calming and important to me, the lighting keeps me awake and focus. The problem I have with working at home is the table, it’s hard to sit for a very long time and having an adjustable and right table would be great #ergonofis ! This is such a giveaway for those people who works at home ! Thanks 🙏
absolutely beautiful video. I love this channel, it's so soothing
I love you all aesthetic, but not just that, I enjoy seeing people work and perform their best in the wfh spaces. As an architect it’s really reassuring to see how people adapt to spaces and see all the little modifications that work for some. None the less, watching people like you, that put so much effort into being productive, makes me imitate and have my own rituals such as decluttering my space prior starting, having small ambient light and playing some low chill music while I write all my to-dos down. Thank you for inspiring us to be productive while also loving ourselves💕🥰. #ergonofis
You inspire me so much and I started a web design project inspired by your videos. We need more women on the CZcams side of tech videos! I used to think I don't like watching tech videos but I binge watch when it's yours because of your know-how and aesthetic. Keep making more! Loads of love from Canada ☺️💞
I am at my desk all day! From work, to studying to relaxing. Lofi is also one of my favorite types of music to listen to, but what helps me the most is frequent breaks to decompress. One of my favorite things to do to decompress is sit with my dog outside and enjoy the sun. :) #ergonofis
The most underrated channel!
Love your keyboard colours!
I love how you always stay kind of in a conversation with us. I be productive by always having nothing near me, and having a clean desk space. #ergonofis
I love to light candles, only use soft lighting from lamps, and play atmospheric music from videos on CZcams to set a calming tone even though my office at work tends to have a more stale feel. Setting the vibe is everything! #ergonofis
About women in tech, it really helps to have another woman in tech to talk to :) it is a great sanity check that it really isn't you, and support from someone who knows exactly what you're talking about. Online communities are pretty awesome too if thats your thing! Also I love that soft tech social media (thanks Maisy) is becoming more of a thing :)
I also absolutely love playing a "study with me" video in the background. Not only are the vibes immaculate, but the pomodoro technique in many of those videos really help boost my productivity. #ergonofis
Thanks for sharing your experiences. I relate to you so much! I'm the only female in my Software Engineering class. It's a struggle sometimes but fortunately, it's a small class and my fellow classmates are more respectful now than they were at the start. I can't wait for the next Design & Code with Me episode. I'm looking to go into UX/UI and I'm definitely learning a lot from you.
I also work from home and being able to have food available when I am hungry has been a game changer in my work. I feel nourished and energized throughout the day. I also like to have warm drinks and candles keep me cozy and relaxed during stressful days.
Thank you for this amazing giveaway! ❤️

You're set up is so gorgeous!! I use the forest app to stay focused, and keeping a seperate workspace for school really helps me alot. I often grab a warm drink to me in the mood/mindset to get started on a long work day. #ergonofis
