  • //work week in my life! I took you along my work week in my social media job in NYC- including what I wear to work, how I prep for the week, adjusting to a 9-5, and opening up about my insecurities. I always want to be as transparent and open about what I’m going through, so I hope this comforts anyone else who deals with insecurity! Let me know if you enjoy these work week in my life videos and what else you’d like to see on my channel!

    Oh my gosh I stumbled across this video & decided to watch because I love NYC & just thought someone’s work week vlog might be fascinating but I wasn’t expecting you to talk about insomnia which I also struggle with. It started in Jan of this year for me & it’s been so hard because I used to always look forward to sleeping & would actually oversleep more than anything. I can relate to your undereye insecurity because sometimes I look in the mirror & I just feel haggard, worn down to the bone from nights & nights of not enough sleep... I also average about 6-7 hours, on a really bad night it’s 4 or 5. But you are not alone! & I’m really glad that things are progressively getting better. I agree that it’s incredibly frustrating & hard to deal with when you can’t fall asleep right away; it all sucks but for me that has been the worst part.
    Thank you so so much for sharing this part of your life because it made me feel less alone.
    A lot of my insomnia is anxiety induced but maybe this verse will also be helpful for you. Psalms 4:8

    Michelle, thanks for opening up about an insecurity you have. One insecurity I've had for most of my life is my height. I'm 5'1 & even though I'm slowly coming around to accepting my height, I still struggle sometimes. It's nice to be reminded that we all struggle with things & that we are all alike in that way, but that we are all still beautiful, despite our insecurities.

    I would love to see you include what you eat during your work weeks in your life. I’m struggling with easy meal options. It’s especially hard working a 9-5 and having the energy to come home and cook 💩

    i am always inspired by your authenticity on youtube! definitely one of the people who inspired me to start making videos about my college experience! i look forward to more of your videos :)
    i am also really glad you shed light on insomnia. i’ve been dealing with chronic illness and something i deal with as a college student is insomnia. not many people on youtube talk about how hard it is to deal with health along with the challenges of everyday life, and i wish you the best on improving your sleep!

    Hey Michelle, would you mind talking about doing your job as an introvert? I'm wanting to go into marketing but I'm worried that I will have a hard time becomes I'm introverted. Thank you so much for all of the content you make!

    Hi Michelle ! I'm from Canada where Aritizia originated from so I also love the brand although I know that it is not always the most affordable. I always wait for them to go on sale so that I can get the most for my money. I just wanted to share that the best times to stop by their stores is mid-August and end of January into February when their sales are 50-70% off.

    Wow...this video came at literally the perfect time. I have struggled with insomnia off and on as I've gotten older, (I'm early 30s now)...and I will do okay for awhile..but then it seems like our bodies get into a pattern of poor sleep and it takes a bit to get out of that cycle. Thank you for being honest and open - we will get through it! :)

    hi Michelle, I'm the same... i've been for about 6 years like that... and i kearned that i let myself sleep what my body needs, and when i feel the need to sleep in, i stay in bed just to rest my body and my mind! with time it gets better! you've got this

  • @AydanJane
    @AydanJane Před 4 lety +8

    I feel like we don't talk about these stigmas much, so I just want to comment on this shortly :) Love your honesty and vulnerability Michelle! I greatly appreciate it! I feel like there is some stigma against using CBD oil, and it seems like a lot of people associate it with marijuana, but it's not the same thing. It is one of the 113 different cannabinoids that can be extracted from the plant, and has less than .3% THC, meaning it doesn't have psychoactive effects.

    Hi Michelle. Even though I'm not watching many CZcams videos lately, I found myself clicking immediately when I see that you uploaded a new video. You're so inspiring and I love your content. Thanks for sharing your experience with insomnia. I've struggled with it as well so I can understand you very well and I think in my case it was due to a very stressful year (it was during the last year of my bachelor degree and I couldn't wait to get over with). My biggest insecurity lately have been my acne scars as well as the fact of not feeling prepared enough for the work life (I always think I need more knowledge, even though I study a lot and my grades are very good). Have you ever felt like this?
