in this vlog, i share my first solo content day of the year, and the photos i took for my 1000th instagram post. it had me feeling reflective — sometimes we feel overlooked, like our name isn’t being spoken into rooms, but those feelings aren’t facts. instead, i used that energy as a reminder to show up, create, and take control of my own content. come along for a full solo content day in houston: shooting on my sony a7sii, capturing video and photos, and stepping into confidence (thanks to a little prep and having my hair done). i also share tips for shooting solo in public and using your feelings as indicators instead of letting them stop you. gear i used linked here: https://liketk.it/5XtIi a reminder: feelings aren’t facts - use them to guide you, not hold you back. 🤍 as always, if you're not yet subscribed to my channel, be sure to do so and also tap the bell icon to turn on post notifications so that you never miss a video. thank you guys so much for the support, it means so much to me. stay blessed, stay safe, & stay prayed up. i'll see you back next time! check out my blog chinezeslife.com and sign up for my weekly newsletter! keep up with me on my other social platforms: insta: https://instagram.com/chinezeslife facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chinezeslife pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/chinezeslife/_created/ tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chinezeslife?lang=en for business inquires/partnerships email hello@chinezeslife.com

just like chicken soup, therapy is good for the soul. i had to unpack the shame i felt around “going back” to therapy and reframe it as what it actually is — a tool. a gift. a choice to become a better version of myself. this season of my life is about getting out of my head and getting in the field. in my latest weekly vlog (which this is a snippet from) i’m share more on how going back to therapy has had a positive impact on me, and touch on how i’m redefining my creative strategy, navigating uncomfortable spaces, and choosing growth even when it feels unfamiliar. if you’ve been overthinking, feeling stuck, or sensing that you’re being called into a new level — this one is for you! meet me there? 🕺🏽✨ #youtubevlogger #weeklyvlog #mentalhealthawareness #therapy #mentalwellness
