I’m a mama and something about the 5/5:30 am just hits different. If I want to even THINK about working out and having time with God, I have to be up early so I can get myself together before the little one.

[@Teachymom]

Sameeeeeee❤

[@xtella_kiky]

I am a mama of three, working in the tech space and I can confirm the 5:00 am routine is IT! Especially the workoukt+meditation+journaling+skincare combo. truely life changing. By the time the kids get up to get ready for school, I feel like I've already conquered my day.😉

[@redbonescorpio79]

Agreed,

[@AliyaWray]

Ditto! I went from a night owl, whom hate mornings. I now cherish mornings! I’m livid if I wake up past 10am!!

[@April-tn7zz]

Same ❤

[@MarisJanette]

I’ve been feeling like I’m not working on my non-work, self-care tasks outside of work and this video inspired me to wake up early 😅

[@sunnyla850]

So true. I say everyday i have to do more than just go to work.

[@akatobi2002]

when i was in middle school/ high school, my mom started going to sleep at 9 and waking up at 5. now that im the age she was, i find i need to do the same thing to get to the next level in life. Thanks for inspiring me.

[@OrlinciaC]

Your editing game is C R A Z Y. I love it and it makes your videos so easy and appealing to watch through. I have not skipped through any of your videos for this reason alone. Also , because you're so inspiring and beautiful! you knew that tho. :)

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Hi Beauty, thank you so much! I truly enjoy it and glad it shows. Thank you for watching all the way through. 🫶🏽

[@theepitomeofstylez4740]

I concur!

[@cbreeze123]

What time are y’all going to bed?😮‍💨

[@Lady.Tanisha]

I’m currently watching this while working from home. This is so inspiring. I want to start my mornings earlier now 💕

[@ShareceMonique]

I’m watching it while working from home also

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Have a great Friday workday!

[@TheRuffler]

I hate getting up early, but watching this has inspired me to change. Thank you for sharing your routine with us!

[@Tani.ekundayo]

I love the simplicity here. Very calming and soothing aesthetics. ❤🎉

[@margareteknorr952]

This was so cosy but also inspiring to watch ❤

[@desirees3539]

This was a great video and my first time to your channel, and now I’m a subscriber. I’m part of the 5am crew too, but I took a break and tomorrow will start it again. As a married mom of 2, it really allows me to feel a sense of accomplishment that’s just for me before I have to do anything for anyone else. Refining the 5am routine is what I will try to focus on this year as well as a good evening routine. Thank you for sharing the reminder sis!

[@kaydeexo6485]

Just came across your content for the first time & I’m obsessed. The vibes & the editing. I love it 🥰 Subscribed!

[@tamickaclark9778]

Just watched your video and it gives me motivation to do this I'm up early every morning and I was looking for some motivation tips and a start of a good day and I think this is it 💗 so thanks will definitely watch more of your content ❤

[@thevirgoals]

So relaxing, definitely incorporating slow mornings into my routines in the new year 🖤

[@MsBlackIntrovert]

I’ve been trying so hard to wake up at 5am I wake up and go right back to sleep but this is the message I needed

[@jreteeksjreteeks8868]

Love this, I struggle with staying motivated. I work from home as well but I don’t have a routine, I jump out of bed and start working. I only dress when I have meetings.

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Girl sometimes I do that too! But it’s all in the evening routine too.

[@sheambitious29lachelle17]

I'm Like that too I'm productive really early or late at night! Great video!

[@IAmLRose]

This is amazing!!! Super motivational for me!! Thankyou for sharing

[@isouro]

So that actually got me right out of bed and now I’m being productive (while watching your vid) 😮🎉

[@deb3535]

such a lovely video, youre such an inspiration!!!!

[@ImTiffanyNicole]

Just subbed off the quality of the content alone. LOVE!

[@MzLena2You]

This is inspiring, I need to get up earlier. I have labeled myself as not being a morning person and I need to get out of that mindset. I love how you tied the gray sweatshirt around your neck, it’s giving me New England preppy vibes. 👌🏾☺️

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Yes, it all depends on your night routine. You got this! & yes, I am a New Englander afterall 😉

[@MzLena2You]

@@BeautifullySyndie Yes, me as well. CT born and raised. And we are experiencing typical New England weather, 79° tomorrow and 46° this coming Wednesday. Lol

[@BeautifullySyndie]

@MzLena2You Ahh, I miss this type of weather this type of year. Nice and cozy.

[@beea.9252]

So so love this! ❤

[@Reactitup]

I’m in tech too. Love the editing in the video 💪🏽

[@IkaroBreny]

You're so inspiring! Nice shots and editing. Hugs from Brasil! ❤🇧🇷

[@courtnesingleton6273]

I’m reading the comments and I think everyone should move like them. I’m pretty sure it’s days when Beyoncé get up at 4pm. lol It’s okay. As long as you killing your goals. It doesn’t have to look like everyone else’s day. Just do it looking good whatever it is.

[@BeautifullySyndie]

I agree, I think I everyone should find a routine that works for them and adapt it into their lifestyles. This video is to inspire them to find that routine.

[@courtnesingleton6273]

[@FitnesslovesFashion]

Another great vlog❤❤❤. I’m such a morning person too. I find that waking up earlier and heading to the gym makes me feel great and ensures me that my day will be wonderful.

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Thank you so much, Beauty! I agree, I have the best days when I wake up early and go to get a workout in.

[@jwillis97]

Loved the video! Thank you for sharing! So glad I found your channel! I also work from home and it's been difficult creating effective routines for myself. This gave me some hope and inspiration that I can build better routines as well.

Girl, it’s a mindset lol sometimes I don’t want to. Thank you 😊

Your editing style continues to improve! You really have stepped up your game ☺️ I am so motivated to wake up earlier to start my work day and cook more at home!

Girl I know! A little over two months left! Thank you so much for watching and joining the premiere. 🤍

[@tarnishermack94]

Cooking videos would be great! I need a more structured morning routine. I have been working from home since 2018 and honestly it has made me so complacent and sedentary. This video is really helpful❤

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Okay, thank you for the suggestion. I’ve been home permanently since 2020 and I know the feeling as well. I try to change things up every now and then and it’s the only thing that helps. That and music, podcasts, natural lighting, a clean space, and putting a little effort into my look. I can’t wait to hear how you incorporate this in your routine. 🤍

[@PI1901]

I've been working on getting up earlier. But, I don't fall asleep until 1 or 2am it's been a challenge. This video is so inspiring and encouraging. Routines are so important and your videos puts me into that mindset. Where is the gray outfit from? It's so cute and looks comfy.

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Ohh that’s tough, do you have a hard time sleeping or do you just choose to go to bed that late? Thank you for watching. Here are the links: Sweatshirt- c8.is/495u7Op Sweatpants- c8.is/475c8pm

Adding a tiny amount of blue foundation to your foundations will help take away the orange/redness. Enjoyed watching!

Thanks for the tip! 🫶🏽

[@Camerashy03]

What time do you normally go to bed? Are you a “good sleeper?” I want to wake up at 5a but I have insomnia so I always wake up in the middle of the night and can’t go back to sleep until 4a and then it’s time to get up in an hour, but I’m way too sleepy 😩😩

[@stacyebrim9702]

Nice video! What was the device you used as cleansed your skin. I miss my Clarisonic brush and your device looks similar.

[@embeejai]

Hi Syndie!! I’m really loving your videos and all of the progression in your editing and views! I love it. I’m currently transitioning into data/business analytics and I’m wondering…which data visualization tools do you use most often? Which do you prefer? How often do you use Tableau or Looker? Thank you! ❤

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Hey! Thank you so much. 🤍 I use Tableau and, most recently, Power BI. I just recorded a work vlog about that and tips to get a job as a business analyst. It should be up soon!

Thank you! You too!

[@HIS_SWK]

I like my work day hours to be 6a-2p or 7a-3p that way I can complete all of my personal tasks afterwards. Although, I am a morning person I’m not one for working out(gym)early. The only thing I’ll do that involves being active is hiking or walking for the day.

[@BeautifullySyndie]

That’s not a bad thing at all. I actually used to work out after work until I started working from home. I find that if I don’t go in the morning, I probably won’t go later in the day.

[@sanrihoe777]

Hey girl!! Love your video :) You really inspire me. I wanted to let you know that using a face brush to cleanse actually damages your skin barrier. If you’d like to deep clean your face you can double cleanse by using a balm with dry skin to melt the makeup and residue off then rinse and go in with your normal cleanser. I recommend watching dermatologist Dr. Alexis Stephens or Dr. Shireen Idriss ♥️ Alexis Stephen’s does so many videos on hormonal break outs and syncing your skincare to your cycle to help with hormonal changes. Their advice is life changing!! ♥️

[@BeautifullySyndie]

Okay, thank you for the recommendations. I’ll check these out 🫶🏽
