Little nuggets I picked up along the way while watching today's video:
1. You don't need to have everything figured out.
2. Never postpone joy.
3. Share the simple joy's of life with the people you love.
4. Adjustment takes time, go with the flow as you navigate.
5. Life will always be somewhat of mess, embrace it.
Well said!
yah perfectly summarized!
🤍🤍🤍
Thanks,
It's kind of weird to say, but even though you don't upload daily or weekly, every video you upload feels like reuniting with an old friend, and we continue where we left off. I love your vibe, Sophie. ❤
"Never postpone joy" 🥺 thank you for gifting us with your wisdom ❤
❤️❤️❤️

"Don't judge a fish by it's ability to fly" isn't that a cool line just goes to the heart of acceptance and appreciation for things as they are not necessarily as we want them to be. Theres real beauty to be found in that thought space 😊
Love that ❤️
Wow, this is extremely empowering. Thank you :) love it!! 💚
Yeah correct but the quote is actually Don't judge a fish by the ability to climb a tree It would spend all it's life believing he was stupid
I love how you just go with the flow! I think that makes life magical!

Hi Sophie!
I live in LV, and retired Law enforcement eight years ago.
Finding your channel is such perfect timing as I’m preparing to sell my condo and move to Asia-Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia…I want to see many different countries!
So, my routine now involves morning meditation and prayers, Qi Gong, separating clothes to be donated, watching CZcams videos like yours, playing piano, walks in the park.
Thank you for such beautiful words and content…I miss Hawaii!
Respect ❤
Best wishes to you!! ❤️
"Never postpone joy"..I needed to hear that today. Great reminding us Sophie. Always look forward to your videos, it's an inspiration for me. Bring so much positive vibes and you being authentic❤❤❤
Thanks for watching ❤️
"Food is my love language." Wow, just wow!! I, too, see the meaning to this phase.
🙂❤️
I appreciate how you go to the market on Saturday to put some regularity into your life. As a retired person, I absolutely understand how the days can all blend together if you don't have some signposts.
🥰 something to look forward to
Dear Sophie! I'm struggling with anxiety since last 2 years and your videos bring so much peace in my life I can't even describe in words. Of course the lessons you convey and your experiences are valuable too but just watching you do something or even relaxing brings so much peace and tranquility in my life that even meditation doesn't bring. I can never be grateful enough to you for doing this, but still Thank you so much ❤
Thank you so much. I am so grateful for you watching my videos
I'm more grateful for you creating these pieces of art ❤
I've been having major anxiety the past few years as well, and I have begun a habit of watching one of her videos as soon as I wake up to help ease my anxiety. It's a lovely way to start the day with peaceful intention❤ wishing you all the best with managing your anxiety 💕
I’ve questioned my direction in life many times. It’s taken a long time but I’ve got to the stage where I just accept where I’m at with the knowledge that I’m doing the best I can in each moment. It might not feel like it but believe we are always learning and growing, which is all we can ask.
Thanks for your videos Sophie. I find them very calming and soothing in a world that seems very loud and busy.
After living with family and friends for 2 years, we are due to move into our first home as home owners any day now. Your videos inspire me that less is more. I am so excited to open boxes of our things that have been sealed for so long, partly to surround myself in home comforts, but also to choose carefully how I want my space to be, and what I will keep with me into this next chapter in our lives. We moved from UK to the Isle of Man to chase our dream and never looked back. It’s nice to give myself time to celebrate what we’ve achieved rather than always focusing on what’s next ❤
So happy to hear that 🥰
That's so exciting to be in that phase! And the Isle of Man sounds blissful. I've also been living with family for almost a year and I'm very looking forward to be able to create a space of my own where to carefully choose what to bring in with intention, creating my happy safe bubble as I noticed how much I need a place with my own energy where to retreat and create from and how hard it is when you live in other people's spaces ! xx
Really lovely. ❤
Getting my life together boils down to 4. things. 1. Eating healthy so I am physically and mentally fresh. 2. Mending my life when it feels torn. Just like a hole in a dress that i mend, I do the same for areas of my life that seem stagnant. I allow myself to enjoy it, see it with a new perspective and embellish it before deciding it’s not working. 3. Being really, really, deeply grateful for everything, including the hard stuff. 4. Loving people and allowing people to love me.
I am so happy for you getting settled once again, life should never be stagnant
Each day should be a delight, because life is so delicate and short.
Enjoy to the fullest 🌹
You live a very adventurous life . Enjoy life as it comes . Love the simple life you have and your comforting words.
Thank you so much ❤️
Sometimes one doesn't know but the video hits at the right place. Thankyou Malama for creating this. ❤❤
Hello sophie…
your videos are my lullabies…. So de stressing and at the same time so inspirational… keep doing the good work… thankyou
Couldn’t agree more, we are always transitioning with the new growth, expansion, movement is what we need. You simplify this beautifully 😊 Health and wellbeing is the gift and the rest will flow. I too love farmers markets, lets keep supporting the small businesses always and good produce. Now to make a new plan. ❤ thank you x
Your video quality/cinematography is so gorgeous, it just makes your narration even better :)
This was such an inspiring and relatable video. Often I find myself postponing joy, so I needed this gentle reminder to let myself be happy now 💚 Something I do to get my life together is by just following a schedule or habits even if it's super simple, such as waking at a certain time and making the bed before breakfast, opening my blog before browsing the internet, and reading a page before I brush my teeth at night. You look stunning as always 💚 Long distance is hard, so well done to you and your husband for enduring that 💚
Your voice is so soothing & relaxing I love your videos it helps me a lot to feel good about myself and thanks for the tips and advice about how life is and how to take slow
HAPPY to see you getting settled SIS. On the daily I create space for myself to really enjoy moments. Painting is my go-to which allows for mindfulness. The pups are so adorable 😍
Sophie - I absolutely love your dogs and your content is really beautiful too. Thanks so much!
Your videos are so thoughtful and lovely! Thank you for being in this space.
i love this, and thank you for this reminder! I recently was part of company-wide layoffs, and I've just been hustling to find the next right move...but I've also realized that this change is probably good for me and will be pivotal in my career and life. I've enjoyed the new "freedom," and I'm also trying to just enjoy this phase in life of slowing down :)
So lovely to be watching your video again. I’m so happy that you’re settling into your new home. Enjoyed listening to your perspective on life. Keep going! Much love 🌼🌸
Thank you so much for watching
Dear Sophie,
Thank you! 💞
You don't know how much I needed to hear everything in this vlog. I listened to it over and over, took notes too. Every word you said seem to be all valuable and a very important item to take note of. I truly appreciate how your thoughts help in putting structure to anyones's "messy" life. It is a fact. It is a journey. Thank you for being my gentle angel to guide me through this whole process.
Love,
Minnie 💜
Thank you so much for watching and supporting ❤️
I have been waiting for this!!! Love all your videos and especially how you document while also sharing your thoughts and experiences! So lovely!! Lots of love
Your videos are so calming for me. Love your content
Thank you ❤️
Hi Sophie 👋,
First off, it’s great to see that you, your husband, and your dogs have safely made it back to Hawaii!
As for me, my journey of getting my own life together is currently a work in progress. But more importantly, I feel fulfilled and content with the way it’s happening simply by me learning to be present and enjoy going with the flow.
Sending you lots of love!!! ❤️❤️❤️🤗
I'm loving your videos so far and subscribed after 2 videos. The sound of your voice is so beautiful, peaceful and healing. I could listen to you talk all day.
So glad to see you Sophie❤
I really missed your videos, so inspiring, peaceful with beautiful views!
Thank you for supporting me ❤️
Hi Sophie❤so happy to see you settling into your lovely new home. Loved your inspirational video today, it gave me a much needed lift.
Exactly what i wanted to watch today ❤ hope your new daily life has been wonderful ✨️
It’s so good to see you back on here. You are one of my favorite CZcamsrs, so when I hadn’t seen as many videos, I was sad (selfishly) however, life can get busy and you have certainly been through a lot in the last couple of months so it’s understandable. I am happy to hear that you will try to upload more videos more often, but go at your own pace. We are happy to get any video from you.
I love this. So peaceful ❤. And it is very inspiring.
😍❤️
Welcome to your new home and place my loveliest Sophie🩷🌷 Hope you enjoy every little moment with your beloved ones 💕🐶🐶 Thank you for always sharing😻😻
Thank you, Sophie for posting another Vlog. I always enjoy watching and listening to new topics that you present. Glad to have you back on CZcams and look forward to more frequent/consistent videos from you. ❤️
Thank you for watching 😍
I think ive played your videos multiple times. Whatever your going thru, stay strong!
you inspire me to just keep going even if my life is chaotic
Hi Sophie, it’s a such a pleasure to watch your videos. I just want to say thank you 🙏 😊
Aloha Sophie! I wanted to tell you that you're one of the few CZcamsrs that inspired me on my YT journey. I remember in your earlier vids you would say how it was a little awkward to talk to the lens (paraphrasing) and how Covid pushed you to stop holding off on YT, but look at you now. So calming! And awesome how you say you're eager, but not rushing it, enjoying the progress. And food is a great love language! I hope others share your love language with you!🤙👍😋
P.S.. Just an FYI, Kailua and Lanikai Beach are great to jog on weekdays before 9am. Only older ppl walking their dogs are there when I go.
Love to see your dogs in your videos❤️
Thanks for sharing wisdom.
love you malama!! every mood i'm in i always feel comfortable watching you and listening to your calming voice and beautiful thoughts... i appreciate you so much, keep going
Your voice really calmed me down and made me relax a bit and I started to pull myself together
Sophie, thanks for sharing the beauty of your videos. I'm looking forward to seeing your videos from the islands again. I lived there when i was young and it takes me back. Also your gentle calm way is lovely. It seems we have no idea where our life will go. So, letting go and responding to the new opportunities seems like a good response. ❤
Love your peaceful, calming, homely videos 💕 Enjoy all the moments of your new journey 🌺 🌞 🏡
Felt chilled out just watching this…😊. I’ve kind of come to this conclusion myself… the more I try to chase perfection the more unhappy I feel. Enjoying cooking again too. Don’t even feel the need to put the television on when I get home from work which is such a habit.
Sophie you are so inspirational and I look forward to hearing what you have to say. I am happy for you that you have moved back to a place you and your husband started out together. Good luck on your newest journey. Never say never to new changes whatever they may be…..Lisa 🙌🙏
Hello Sophie🌺 I'm happy to see a new video!
I love your thoughts, words, how do you see the world, and the way you make your videos
Thank you for your inspiration ❤
Much Love
Anni☀️
Thanks Anni❤️
Enjoy your new chapter girl.🍹🌊🌅
Thank you for being such a calming element in my life💛
❤️ thank you for watching
Thank you Sophie! You're simply awesome!
❤️
Thank you for the video ❤ and you were missed here so I look forward to hearing more often from you! 😍
What I want to finally get to is give myself permission to be happy in any form which works for me, not other people. You always help me find balance when I lose it on my way. It's like hearing a good friend say: your dreams are good and you're normal. ❤️
❤️😍
Such a great video, Sophie! Well, I have been getting my life together since I was 18. Now, I am 57 and am enjoying creating a peaceful, slow living experience since I stopped working a couple years ago. I love all of the ideas you share with us on how you are feeling the joy each day, love your quote.. I want to start exercising to take better care of my health. So, with that and identifying a few experiences that I want in my life now will become my routine and become how I get my life together. Sending lots of love!
Sending you love back ❤️
Your videos are so peaceful and relaxing to see!! With great advice! You have been bless to experience living in different areas of the world! I have been to Hawaii a few times and I think is paradise!! A dream for many people that maybe will never get to experience.
I like all your videos. They are so easing, full of wisdom and advice and very comforting. After all the videos I've seen from you i didnt know we were around the same age. What a coincidence! Stay blessed and beautiful!
Such a lovely video with lovely msg. NEVER postpone JOY. Trying to embrace the life as it is. Thank you for this.❤
❤️😍
I love your content! You inspire me so much
Thank you ❤️
So good to see you again. You've got such a soothing voice. Once more I'll write down in my journal something you say in your videos. This time the quote is "Never postpone joy." Thank you Sophie. ❤🙏
Thanks Nadine❤️
Hi Sophie, it's so good to see you again😊. There is no one right answer for how to get one's life together... Sometimes I only have enough strength to breathe and let the time go, other times I am more proactive and I set myself goals and I plan how to achieve them. The important thing for me is to take one step at a time and everything will work out eventually, it always does 😊
Love your approach 😁
As always, very insightful content. Thank you Sophie.
Just started watching your videos today, and I’m absolutely in love.
It’s the first time I find a youtuber that speaks to my heart, like you do. Your way to view life is inspiring. Absolutely love your simplicity, grace and calmness ✨🫶🏼
Thank you so much for watching and for supporting
”Maybe getting my life together will be a balancing act”’ resonated with me more than I want to admit. 😅 But truthfully, I admire your willingness to change and embrace new things, even when it’s not easy.
I think we as humans always want to feel connected, to a place, other people, environments… Letting go of them and allowing new worlds to enter our old ones is true strenght.
Wishing you a peaceful transition.
Your videos always resonate with my life. Currently on life's hard reset and it is pretty messy and chaotic. Thanks for always inspiring.
I love to appreciate the journey with you! Thanks! Kisses from Brazil ❤️
Thank you! I agree never postpone your joy.
I REALLY appreciate these videos. My one request would be to post more.
I have been going through a life transition for two years now with little progression towards what I hoped would have already come into fruition. It has taken me on a roller coaster of emotions, including feelings of depression, ashamed, embarrassed, failure, grateful, happy, appreciative, and much more. There is intense pressure to make it big in the corporate world, not only from society, but even from those closest to us: our own families and friends.
We each have our own unique path. I wish one day, there would be a universe where our worth wasn't measured by what we do (careers), how hard we push ourselves to achieve better outcomes, or sacrificing our own lives to 'make it big,'but rather measured in how we give back to the world, to nature, and to the greater good for humanity.
What a difference that would be...
Thank you again for these videos. In listening to them, I feel I am not alone. ❤
Welcome back!
I really wish you would give us some more detailed videos about your journey. I want to see you packing and unpacking and organizing and a tour of your new house :)
Yout content is so refreshing and so simple ❤
Thank you ❤️
A perfect video. We all need to know that everyone's life is in constant flux and how you deal with that fact is what makes life interesting. We are all learning so much from your experiences. The prime lesson is knowing that no matter where life takes you it will be alright. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Sophie you and your videos are so so so inspiring for me and I am so so excited to watch this video☺️💕
Aw thank you ❤️
Your two lovely dogs have been your best companions so so beautiful. I m so happy for you ❤
My best friends:)
So lovely calming voice !!! Thank you !
Thanks for watching
Live your life as you want. It's your life. So many people spend their life chasing their dreams but then find it's not as they expected.
Kinda needed this exact message right now. Thank you.
I'm happy you're back in Hawaii so I can see the scenery
Your videos are so beautifully peaceful.
I love your meditative voice ! Keep putting out content for us
I do love allllll of your videos. God bless you ❤
Everything looks so relaxing. ❤
Thanks for watching
Thank you, dear Sophie for this video!❤
Moving is a huge shock when you least expect it. I hope you feel at home again wherever that might be. 😊
it's so calming ❤
Journaling always works wonder for me as my little reset ritual :) you're right, enjoy the journey. wish you all the best for new adventures, Sophie!
Do you care to elaborate? I’m always looking for journaling help. Thanks!
Blessings to you Sophie, please keep the slow living in an island coming... I know EXACTLY what you are talking about...I am in the same exact situation right now. I am packing, decluttering, organizing for my move over seas at the start of 2024. I came out to my current place 10 yrs ago with a plan, a dream, a life I hoped to achieve and it did not go as planned at all, and It has taken some time to accept that, and that not all dreams are meant to come true. So moving on from that realization I am moving back home but with a new perspective and appreciation for the place, and the excitement of making a real life for myself now that I can finally let go of the TEMPORARY mentality I have lived in all my life. decades of living out of a suitcase or a box trying to find the perfect place where I would feel I belong is finally phased itself out of my system and I am so grateful for this enlightenment. Life & home is really where you hang your hat and this year is not filled with excitement of shopping, adventuring, social life, this year is filled with selling, decluttering, lots of planning, packing, arrangements, house hunting, cleaning, working tons of overtime and looking forward to an even more simpler life around family and old friends and the anticipation of exploring home once again with a new purpose. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO...I DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE I NEEDED THIS. much love :)
Good luck to you I'm just starting de cluttering for my move .. a new adventure ✨
@@juliafisher5844 Good luck to as well love. Its not easy and it can be a bit overwhelming but I find that keeping my focus on the goal motivates me every day. Blessings to you.
@@irishcladdagh3 thank you so much God bless you too
Been a silent subscriber. Your vids heals my anxiety. Thanks!Philippines 🇵🇭
Heureuse si heureuse de vous retrouver ♥♥♥ Revenez souvent vous nous avez manqué !
I love your videos! Thankyou!❤️❤️
Love your bright little house!
I felt that sadness and longing. And yes, go with the flow is the way to go. Life is beautiful, right here, right now - so what I do is make more moments and memories with my family, care for and walk my dog, go camping and sleepover with friends. I'm also in a long-distance for almost 3 months with my bf - so while waiting for him to come back I plan fun adventures and buy little gifts for him to feel extra excited for his return. I feel like if life is too perfect and all set - it would feel so boring and empty. It's true that challenges and difficulties teach us new lessons and help us grow gracefully. Sophie, thanks for sharing this video as it reminds me that I'm not alone and every one has their own battles. Let's take it slow and believe that all things work together for good. Virtual hugs. -Diane
This video spoke to my soul…… as usual. ♥️♥️
Thank you so much for your videos. I'm new to watching your channel and your videos are so inspiring and empowering that it's opened my mind to a new way of looking at things. And how life is very short enjoy it for what it is. And reflect on what we want for our selves. So thank you Sophie. ☺️
I appreciate it so much! Thank you for the comment and for your support ❤️
Sophie,
Your soothing voice and calm words really soothe my soul. I was surprised to see you back in Hawaii, but admit that I love the gorgeous scenery in your videos❤️ And can we talk about your hair? 🌹
Resonated ❤ thank you for these reminders.
Looking forward to all your updates on this new adventure you are on! 💖😘🥰
Hi Sophie. Another well written and thought out video. I am moving about currently, due to a very long wait to move into my home. I am housesitting and living with just a few items. I love how it makes me realise that i need very little. The answer to your question is my hobbies. I keep up my knitting, sewing and do my daily work outs. It keeps a little structure in my life on uncertainty. xx
LOVELY AS ALWAYS. THANK YOU!💚
Thank you 😍
Welcome home!
Glad you're settled in now and I hope you will love it there ❤
Already love it ;)
