Sarahhh, go easy on yourself! moving can be such a stressful time for our bodies and minds even if we don't really perceive it as such. I love change and actually really really crave it in my life but at the same time, our nervous system gets accustomed to places and situations and people and loosing one of those things from one day to the next is almost definitely gonna throw us off balance for a while. So be gentle with your brain while it’s adjusting to a new environment! love the video , as always
🥹 this comment means so much to me! i really think i need to remind myself more to slow down and be patient with myself. your words came at a perfect time
Also so physically exhausting on top of that!! Thanks for sharing! @@graymatsen
No need to feel like every vlog has to be cheery and upbeat. You’re showing the real stuff! And that’s what we want 💛
Thanks for making us feel less lonely in our own off/life is strange moments
couldn‘t have said it any better 🤍
all the hot girls are going thru it rn!!! I love this vulnerability and honesty ~ I hope you can find patience and peace in this time of transition 🫶🏼
you bring a vulnerability and authenticity to your vlogs that i just love
I think this is my favorite vlog you’ve ever done. You sounded so clear and grounded in this transitional moment, felt really intimate and genuine. Kudos, keep going girl! ❤️🎉
Ps, also when I loose my tan at the end of summer I add isle of paradise tanning drops to my moisturizer and it really helps brighten my face and make me feel more confident and like myself.
love you sarah! found you recently bc of tiktok and genuinely have been going back and watching all your vids and you have become such a comfort creator to me! all your vids just feel like a lil hang with a close friend
awwww, this makes me so happy :')
I’ve definitely experienced a similar feeling..
When I moved recently I quit my job, broke up with my partner, turned 24, and got my car stolen all in a two month period. 😅
There’s a lot that was stressful, but there also a lot that I had to be thankful for.
For a long time I just felt numb, but continually grounding myself & remaining true to who I know I am & eventually the cloud started to lift.
It’s a process, but truly everything will always be okay - and on the other side I’ve found myself with a greater sense of identity & more grateful that I was before all the hard things I went through.
Ahh Sarah! I’ve been watching you since you moved into your last apartment! I stumbled upon it on the day it was uploaded and I’ve been a faithful viewer every since! Truly the end of an era but very excited about this 💗
Your willingness to be vulnerable and share your emotions and personal stories is a testament to your authenticity. I think it's one of the things that makes your content so special and relatable. Your viewers see you as a friend, and we appreciate the opportunity to get to know the real you, even if it's not the "perfectly curated content". It's what makes your content so meaningful and we are here because we genuinely enjoy connecting with you as a person, not just as an entertainer. It's what makes us feel like we're watching a friend rather than a distant influencer. 💖💖💖
That’s why I enjoy being here, the real and rawness of your channel. Thanks for being you! 💙
Sarah ❤❤ I am a relatively new follower (within the past 5 months maybe) and I LOVE how you skilfully balance your content. You show your day to day, time with your friends (in a respectful way), you take us along for the ride on your adventures. And through it all I feel like I’m watching art, genuinely. The way you document everything through a nostalgic lens makes me feel so warm watching your content.
I think you also balance being raw/ having a conversation with us and being private really really well. I never feel like you’re not being genuine.
Life transitions are so complex. You can feel happy and sad all at once.
Keep doing what you’re doing and remember to be kind to yourself because you’re doing something great.

I don’t comment often, but I discovered your channel when I was living in Victoria and I really just found you to be a breath of fresh air! You are very genuine and create such a lovely aesthetic in your videos - sending positive energy to you! Your style and the way you carry yourself is unmatched 😘
Loved this vlog! I always love the content you put out. Your authenticity comes through.
sarahhh I think you put wayyyy too much pressure on yourself, we LOVE your content, we love YOU. Girl look yourself in the mirror, you are the most amazing , true self women we could ever dare to see in this industry.
New apartment, new ideas, new energy, new beginning and we are HERE FOR IT. Now go get a hot coffee, and get that good energy flowing xxx WE LOVE YOU
This was beautiful! Thank you for taking us along, Sarah! 💖
i'm really happy you enjoyed it!
If you really hate your kitchen back splash, you can always buy stick-on tiles and do a little DIY! Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one who struggles with moving changes. It's like I'm so excited but then completely overwhelmed. It gets better! Congrats on y'all's place
I'm from the pnw and live far from home now and your videos make me feel so cozy and remind me of home. I've never left a youtube comment before but wanted to make sure you know that you're spreading so much joy and comfort :) I'm so happy to be here & happy you're here too
I recently moved into my first apartment, and I thought about you during this process! To me, you’ve been a realistic inspiration here on CZcams! I’ve been watching you through your journey, and you usually give me a lot of hope that life can work out even after a ton of hardships!
ah congratulations! I'm happy to hear that my videos give that to you
Girl take it easy. Moving is so stressfull and moving in with someone is quite a big deal. Thank you for being so honest. You are doing such a good job, dont doubt yourself. Big hug xxx ❤️
You are truly a breath of fresh air. Your genuineness and outlook on life makes me feel connected to and inspired by you. And I actually love hearing more about your work life !!
Transitions are tough, but you’ll see it through - change is the catalyst for growth :-)
I appreciate this type of vlog though! Sometimes it feels like I live in a parallel universe where a lot of things aren’t great and I’m just watching others succeed and cheering them on. I’m here for you coming to this space to talk about the murkier or tougher climbs of it and life in general. Just rounds it out even more. I’m in yet another transitional period too. So is the eternity of life huh? Haha ❤❤ hugs
Moving is a huge life change. It actually places on the Holmes and Rahe’s scale of most stressful life events. Even when an event can be exciting it’s also okay and normal for it to bring grief & stress too.
Wishing you all the best through this season ❤
Hey Sarah! Thank you so much for being so vulnarable. I honestly feel like there is no other person on CZcams that inspires me more as a person than you. I have been going through kind of similar stuff as you and my biggest comfort is watching and rewatching your videos. So I just wanted to let you know that whatever you do means a lot to many people. Hearing about your doubts and worries makes me even more connected to your content. (Also it's not relevant to this but I'm also Hungarian. :) )
I had a similar childhood, moving around a bit etc. I know exactlyyy how you feel. I just moved in with my partner in July and it’s been an adventure. Definitely didn’t anticipate some of the emotions around it, especially after living in the same place for 5 years before I moved. As a Leo, my independence was a huge part of my identity. Finding a middle ground has been a feat, but it’s rewarding! So happy for you and glad you found a great partner that’s worth the leap! It’s going to be amazing ✨
I appreciate hearing about the work stuff, even if your job is CZcams! I’m around the same age as you are and just went through/am still going through a bit of a quarterlife crisis, and I’ve watched a lot of my friends experience the same thing. Also doing YT full time means you have all sorts of interesting insights for folks who freelance or manage their own business-I’d personally love to hear more about it 💛
I love how open and honest you are with your current season. It’s totally normal and valid to be feeling all those mixed emotions - but you DO sound grateful and present. Good on you, girly! Wishing you all the best ❤
Never apologize for being human!!!!! I love you and your content, and have for a long time!! Keep doing you and sharing the hard stuff as well as the good. Wishing you all the happiness and growth🤎🤎
Thank you Sarah for being here honestly you bring so much comfort to me and I will always be grateful for you .
I do understand how you feel about your new place i did just moved out 3 months ago from the apartment that I lived in for 7 years and as you said it really felt like break up but believe me it gets better, I hope your new chapter full of success and happiness 💞
loveliest vlog ever! thank you for being so honest and kind !
Appreciate you sharing Sarah, I've been feeling similar and it helps to hear I'm not alone!
moving is absolutely stressing and nervewrecking!!! take as much time as you can to process everything. looking forward to watching the video
Always love your content and overall authenticity 🤍
I really resonate with what you said about being adaptable and what that does to emotions being expressed/not expressed. But so excited for you! And you are still a very independent person I think, that is also a skill - not something a situation (like living with a partner) will change. It will probably always be a quality of yours. Best xx.
i went to Sephora to check out the concealer and blush you used so quickly! they look so good on you! may i also ask what brush you used to apply the blush?
Good morning Sarah happy Saturday morning and I just wanted to say that you are amazing Supporter
Could you do stick on backsplash? its renter friendly and there's different ones that you can choose from :)
yes! I was thinking of potentially doing something like this
Moving is horrendously stressful 😅
get peel n stick backsplash tile!!!!!!
You are doing great 💜💜 thank you for sharing 💗
You're such a sweet angel, I think all women mourn their previous stage of life.
we got you
Love you Sarah ❣️
Love this vlog!
There are amazing peel & stick "tiles" for the kitchen. Spend $150 & do yourself the favor, trust me!
Just make sure you check your lease fully before doing these so called renter diy…
we’re going to miss your apartment too!! 😢❤
where is your grey cardigan from?
it's from reformation :) i'll link it here (affiliate link) go.magik.ly/ml/1wvty/
Where is the couch from Sarah?! Love it 😍
it's the habitat sofa from four hands :)
I wish I could live in Oak Bay.... I can only dream lol
I find it curious that you would think we don’t want you to talk about your job...I think it is actually the opposite. We want to hear more, the contents creators I enjoy are usually very open about what it is like. The no work days, the super busy days, the ways brands approach, when it is nice, when is not, etc. Even if we are not in the industry, a lot of us right have modern schedules, are freelancers etc and can relate to a lot you talk about, and people who do have a 9-5 do appreciate the sneak peak. Also, you are grieving an era of your single life that ends. There are a lot of figuring out when moving in with someone. People romanticize it, but IT’S HARD. Problems will arise and solutions also. For example, I work from home, but from my experience if I am living with someone, I can’t, I need a space outside the house. Virginia Wolf wrote the great book, which I don’t recall the name in English right now because I read it in Portuguese, but I think it is something like “a room to call her own”. A creative needs a space for herself, every woman needs it. Maybe what is stressing you is not the moving and the change, that you really want, but the fact that that changes the fact that you had a place of your own to work...anyway, maybe it doesn’t apply to you, I am just sharing my experience...❤
She reminds me so much of Rachel Nguyen it’s unreal. I’m so happy I found someone with a similar vibe. 🫠
I love watching your videos💛
