A Cozy Café Workday & Nature Therapy || Vlogmas Day 8

[@yourbookladykatie]

I'm not crying. YOU'RE crying.

[@kelseyreeree1]

I'm having a really anxious morning today, so I just sat down and clicked this video because Morgan and this community never ever fail at calming me down and wrapping me in a warm hug. I'm only 30 seconds in, and I feel better already! Thank you so much, Morgan! 💗

[@sophiaisabelle01]

We appreciate Morgan for posting content consistently. Happy Holidays to her and to everyone else on this channel.

[@katmoons]

We appreciate you, Morgan! You help me see magic in my own little world. We don’t always have to live large, sometimes the little things we value can add so much joy to our lives. Thank you for sharing parts of your life with us!

[@abigailkonig3054]

I am a first year teacher, and I have integrated the “hello, friends” greeting into my classroom routine! You have encouraged and inspired me in your gentleness and authenticity.

[@marquisstarks9471]

Morgan, you are the absolute best. Thank you for always being so giving. God and the universe will continue to bless you in abundance 🙂

[@amandadowney953]

There's always a positive message in each of these videos. You are such a sweet angel. Thank you for the continued reminders of being you. You are an inspiration. Thank you for all you do. And as the message says at the end, you are all important! HUGS. 🤎⭐️✨️

[@nancyhelgeson9934]

Your smile is wonderful, and it is great that you recognize it is your default to smile when you are overwhelmed. I have a difficult time when others feel uncomfortable, overwhelmed, tired, or angry and they still smile. I like the authentic reality of people who let me know how they feel. Sometimes that is the best - not covering up what we are feeling. Thank you for sharing the real you. You are a wonderous you! And I loved the drawing you created! It looked beautifully finished from what I got to see. :)

[@kimcartwright8111]

Another wonderful Vlogmas, Morgan! Always grateful for your wonderful content and this caring community. Thank you.

[@L.O.V.E.CaratStay]

Everything about this video made me so happy 🥰 And the voicemail at the end made me cry. Such a necessary reminder

[@renepainter7166]

Beautiful video- Kaitlyn’s message at the end was also beautiful and very touching and encouraging. I’m older I’m sure than most of your target audience, but I still feel lost, alone and without purpose some days, weeks or longer. It’s good to be reminded that we DO all have a purpose here, whether we ourselves understand that always or not. Your thoughts plus each message at the end of these Vlogmas videos have been so uplifting and inspiring. Thank you.

[@DeryaKCogal]

Kaitlyn, I love your message, thank you for sharing ❤️

[@meriamjelassi4824]

You bring joy and peace to my life. The stories at the end are so special, genuine, and inspiring. I love you! ❤️

[@Mozarthaus2011]

One the reason because I love the phone calls of your vlogmas is that it's a original and wonderful way to know each other of this community of your followers. It was a grest idea, Morgan, congratulations fir your creativity 😍👏👏👏

[@Lina-cf4oy]

Kaitlyn if you're reading this i just wanna tell you that your words saved me today 😢 I'm in this phase of my life where i'm lost... I don't know what I want...I don't have energy to do anything anymore and i feel bad about that, your message came to me as a reminder thats it's okey to feel like this sometimes...I couldn't hold my tears listening to your story... I hope all of us will find their own path of happiness and serenity one day ❤ Thank you!

[@rebeccafarinash9308]

I’m fascinated by the way you can make a digital drawing look like it was done with actually painted with real paint. It’s so cool to me

[@HollyWood-pm3xq]

Morgan, your videos are so warm and cozy. They always make me feel good. You and Landon are the best! The messages from everyone helps me know that l am not alone in how l am feeling. Happy Holidays!

[@sofiagabler8325]

Congratulations Morgan 🎊 so happy for you and your Library interview and the comment from Powell's. I love your encouraging videos. They mean so much.🎄 Happy Holidays. ⛄

[@suzanneparvey4346]

What a lovely surprise to see this Vlogmas video this morning. I needed the nature walk Morgan. Always uplifting. I need to get out into the woods again. I walk my neighborhood but its not the same as being in with the trees and near water. I sure recognized the coffee shop as I have been there many times. If I ever run into you I certainly will say Hi. I hope it happens one day. It will be my pleasure to buy you a cup of coffee or latte. In the meantime it was wonderful to see you creating your latest Patreon postcard. I love the snow globe as I happen to have a soft spot for them. That is wonderful Powells commented on your video. Also I appreciate your sharing your interview with us. I will definitely take time to read it. I also smile when I am dealing with stress and laugh. A coping thing. I love the drone view of Pioneer Square with the Christmas tree too. Thank you Kaitlyn for your message. It really hit home that we are all here for a purpose and your helping that older gentleman get up was meant to be too. God bless you. Hugs.

[@snamorsixteen]

Morgan you’re so lucky to live in a beautiful place with lots of areas to go tp for moments of peace and inner healing. Thank you for sharing that with us. Merry Christmas!

[@liz_alva]

Wow, those opening shots of the forest are so enchanting! 😍

[@kariberton8221]

It was so interesting watching your artistic process for your postcards ❤️ Thank you for sharing and also for your positivity! I appreciate you, Morgan. Big hugs!

[@emmadavies7868]

My children all laugh and smile when they are in trouble or in a tense situation as an anxious or nervous reaction, I showed them your video to show they others do to! Thank you for sharing x

[@margaretquinn5335]

Congratulations on becoming published and for being such an inspirational and motivational heartcentered, kind person. You are so right- follow your bliss and trust that all will work out. Also it's important that you treat yourself the way you would like others to treat you. Love from Ireland.

[@juliafieger949]

Portland is so beautiful! Morgan, my dream is to run into you at Powells! hehe!!!! It could happen!!!

[@yellowrose3799]

You give me inspiration to venture out and be alone at peace and productive.

[@_Sonia.S]

Merry Christmas, everyone! Much love!🙏❤️

[@cl0oOsh]

I just woke up, sat down and made myself a cup of tea. It is very pleasant to wake up to your videos. Thanks for your work !

[@HardtoftheLibrary]

Congrats on the article!! 😍 Also great that Powell’s commented. It would be so cool to have a Powell’s meeting up with this amazing community ❤️

[@cindishooltz4149]

Wow! I would love to run into Morgan at Powells Bookstore!!!! She is a true beautiful person…. Thank you Morgan for helping me feel so happy.

[@iletaitunefee1462]

Thank you Morgan for the time you spend on your postcard illustration. I am very very happy because I will receive my first one soon.🌲

[@deliciouslyme6206]

Your videos truly feed my soul. You are such a thoughtful and loving and super talented person and I’m so glad I found your channel. Also, Kaitlyn’s message is so comforting and true. ❤️

[@jodilambert-belke9363]

Morgan!! Your postcard looks amazing…. YAY you!!!🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤

[@megancoetzee3758]

❤️❤️ blessings to you Morgan. Thank you for your beautiful videos

[@AngelLeosAdorkableUniverse]

I love your quotes from the article and how they lined up with the message at the end. Knowing it's ok to do what you want and not have gradious plans and goals is freeing. I often struggle with giving myself permission to relax. I feel lazy if I'm not productive. Just something I need to work on.

[@julesm9081]

PS laughing when uncomfortable- sometimes i do too! pps your imperfect postcard will be perfect still! it actually says "I'm perfect=imperfect"! xx

[@tresannrn8454]

Beautiful, from start to finish! Thank you!!❤

[@autumni.5489]

Just read your article. It was so inspiring. I don't need to be afraid to start new things/ a NEW job. But after being there for 12 years .I don't know nothing else. You are a light in our lives Morgan! Peace, love and happiness!!!!

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so very much, friend ✨💛

[@DanitaReynolds]

Morgan, forest therapy is also called forest bathing. This Japanese practice is a process of relaxation; known in Japan as shinrin yoku. Some people do sun bathing and some people like you and I enjoy forest bathing. 😊 Kaitlyn, thank you for sharing your wonderful and heartfelt story. ❤

[@lovelifementoring5399]

Wonderful 😍 as always. You are both the sweetest people ever. Thank you for making everything just seem so much lighter and more joyous. ❤️ oh and Roo too. X

[@laurenschenck5355]

Thanks so much for bribing peace love happiness this year every year you are a MIRACLE that got put on this earth 💚🎄❤️❤️🎄❤️❤️🎄💚🎄❤️❤️🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄💚🎄🎄

[@lilyturney1346]

I’ve been spending my day binge watching your Christmas videos, the perfect way to relax on my day off! I love building up to Christmas with your vlogmas content! 💛✨

[@MaryReadsToLive]

Morgan, I hope you have the most wonderful Holiday! Your videos have helped me while I am dealing with the loss of my Uncle right after Thanksgiving. We were really close and were like a father to me and I hadn't been able to muster any Christmas spirit because of my grief. However, your warmth and encouragement have helped me heal so much and I am finally able to put up my tree and celebrate the way he would have wanted for me. Thank you so much!

[@MountainWhispers86]

I saw your video up and I couldn't wait to watch it. There's always coziness and happiness involved in your videos and I so appreciate them. You make life sound so happy especially when one might get overwhelmed and stressed. Lol it's like your a woman version of Fred Rodgers. I sure do hope you and Landon and roo have a very Merry Christmas!

[@tiffanycorsello1886]

That's AWESOME about your Powell's comment!!! Good for you- YAY! I'm a long-time Powell's customer- they are the BEST!!!

[@victoria9663]

Bless you for these videos. They are so lovely and add such beauty to this season.

[@ginaferracini9375]

Wow 💚💚💚 beautiful video you have a beautiful smile Morgan glad the book shop commented on your video..hello friends that's amazing 💖thankyou Kaitlyn 😇 but sorry about your brother. 🙏

[@carolvidal_]

What a beautiful place you went on the begining of the video! And I also loved the postcard :)

[@operacionanaconda]

Congratulations on the article!! ❤️❤️❤️ You totally deserved!!! 💝

[@horcrux97]

The voicemail really hit home today. Thank you so much for sharing them 💕

[@mischievousfox_]

What a perfect video to enjoy over a morning cup of tea ❤️ Lots of love from the UK!

[@susanstill1696]

Thank you for another festive vlog! I hope you, Landon and Roo have a wonderful Christmas. If you ever do a meet up at Powell's, I'll be there!!!

[@katieo3421]

This video’s story at the end has resonated with me the most so far 😭💜 so very timely and oh so appreciated, Kaitlyn (my name twin!)! And of course, thank you Morgan for always sharing such wonderful videos with us 🎄💕

[@cathycreates]

I thought your postcard was stunning, even at it’s not quite finished stage-such talent. I love snow globes. I recently bought my Mum one and when my autistic sister saw it she said she wanted it, so my Mum gave it to her, but looked sad. So I gave my Mum mine-and now I’m sad as there are no more left! I liked the snow globe because the little Santa inside reminded me of my Dad. It looks similar to him in a photo that I took of him(when he was well) with his arms around a giant toy reindeer in a garden centre! The snow globe has almost the same depiction. My Dad died last year. I liked looking at the snow globe everyday as it reminded me of him. But hey, what snows around, goes around.

[@anigoescrazy]

I got covid at the moment for the first time and watching your videos, Morgan, is always such a comfort. I'm always crying happy tears hearing the stories of this amazing community. Thank you all. I'm so happy for you, Morgan, for the interview and for Powell's mentioning you in a comment 🥰 Have a wonderful weekend.

[@maggiekapitan1074]

Forest like from Hobbit...lovely

[@roxanedoyle6412]

When my son and I did a road trip from Seattle to Denver in 2019, one of our most favorite stops was Powells in Portland. As an independent bookstore geek...I've never found one comparable! Love your videos. Merry Christmas 😀

[@chooseyourthoughts7692]

I’m loving your vlogmas Morgan! Thanks for all you do ❤😊

[@Steph_W]

I’m bawling my eyes out. In a good way. Your video was so unexpected this evening. Just what I needed to hear this winter and New Year. My partner and I split and I was alone for Christmas due to weather and being sick, and your vlog helped me so very much. Thank you! This helped me right now at the cross roads at which I stand. ❤

[@MorganLong]

This seems like a really big time of change for you in a way that’s been really difficult 💔 You are so incredible Steph friend. Sending you big hugs ❤️

[@deboramissoorten6765]

Thanks for doing the Vlogmas as I enjoyed already every one of them 💯🍀🌲

[@TheEmpressgoth]

Happy Holidays Ms.Morgan! Thank you 😊 💓

[@rachu816]

I really loved Kaitlyn's message. Just wow. It was so sweet and just what I needed to hear. Thanks for sharing, Kaitlyn!!

[@sjthorn]

Hope you have a Merry Christmas and happy holidays. Getting to watch this on my new computer has been so nice, finally I can enjoy the HD without my computer freezing or switching to low quality. I'm appreciating the beauty your videos even more now.

[@marlenaeva3813]

Hi Morgan. This was an amazing video. Thank you. And the message at the end was exactly what I needed to hear today. Much love to you!

[@MorganLong]

Thank you for watching, friend! Big hugs ❤️

[@mayahrasmussen]

Portland seem fantastically whimsical and I love the way you portray it 🌲🌿🍁🍄 I'm so happy that you have enjoyed your time through vlogmas even though your work amount has increased! I so agree with the comments - I love that you are able to smile even through hardships and it is truly inspiring 🧡✨

[@sreejanichavidi6901]

Your videos melt my heart.. I absolutely adore you... 💕💕💕💕🥰

[@angelamarcinkevich9202]

Awesome news congratulations, I need to read this .

[@marysabonnema2593]

Thank you for your wonderful videos! It’s always a breath of fresh air and truly so encouraging. I was a Liberal Arts Major as well! Nice to see someone else who majored in that as well 🤗

[@elizabethgeyer1337]

so heartfelt and beautiful!

[@julesm9081]

oh Morgan!!!! i wish your ur teacher hadn't told you off like that! you cant help smiling its what you do - as you said, and i think its WONDERFUL! xx

[@kellir6622]

I feel like this video was meant for me. I really needed this and I wasn’t even going to watch this today! I was going to wait until later but something told me to watch it now. ❤️ thank you!

[@helenfeko8606]

Morgan, thank you a lot!! You are amazing!!! Your videos are awesome!!🎈🎈🌸🌸

[@crawfordjennifer2015]

Morgan I can’t thank you enough for your videos. I get lost in them. After a busy day taking care of a lot of things throughout the day. I’m excited to sit down and take a little time to escape. My boyfriend was diagnosed with a brain tumor January 2021 and it’s been hard at times. I found some hobbies that I enjoy. However, I do feel guilty for not doing something else more productive. However, 2023 I want to be able to just take the time to relax my mind, body and spirit more. Thank you so much. 🎄💕

[@DanielaWille]

I thought that only me has this default.❤😊keep on smiling dear Morgan 😊

[@amywoolsey6591]

I so get spending "too many" hours on an illustration. I never feel like mine are actually done. I just have to stop at some point. :) Thanks to Kaitlyn and her beautiful heartwarming story. Shout out from VA to VA :)

[@theapedersenballangrud5175]

Happy Christmas ❤ I’m catching up on all your videos from vlogmas now. Thank you for all your videos.

[@vedaimig8018]

I teared up!! I am so happy for you ❤️❤️❤️

[@ewakloss9291]

Your words in the article! I will write them down and bring on the wall at my desk. So inspiring! I need them so much right now. Thank you! ❤

[@Laura-bp8qd]

2 things: First: Come on Powell’s! I’m from Canada and I dreaaaam of going to Powell’s in Portland just because of Morgan 🤩 Second: wow the message at the end, just what I needed! Thank you Morgan for sharing it ❤️ merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo qui fait du bien, comme toujours 😊

[@Irenexvre]

Super amazing video as always and the cozy vibes!! That Powell's comment was iconic and omg Mo I am so happy for you for the interview also as always those inspiring words at the end of the vlogmas they made my day!!!

[@gaelliott61]

I love all your videos. Thanks for making them. I feel like this restaurant scene was similar to one in Portlandia. :)

[@rebeccalebo7284]

Beautiful as always. Thank you for this upload❤

[@d.m.3133]

I had my coziest cup of peppermint coffee, my coziest robe and my cat on my lap. 😌. Another great Vlog! I’m in awe how green Portland is in December! I loved your postcard! That is so awesome about your interview and getting acknowledged by Powell’s!

[@Lina-cf4oy]

I just woke up and saw the notification that you uploaded a video ❤❤❤❤❤ what a perfect way to start the day !

[@xxxxxbexyxxxxx]

This video makes me wish I could press the like button more than once! Beautiful and exactly what we all need to hear sometimes 🎄

[@hartlinerealm2015]

Thank you for sharing imperfect moments.

[@SuperStrangSshadow]

You guys are lucky to still have fall. In Norway it's tons of snow.

[@jannickehansen5645]

Hi Morgan :) I know it feels like all other artist are super fast in their work, but for the most part I think that's not true. Some are really fast and have an art style where that works, but for some of us (me included) things take more time, and that's fine.

[@TheMinimalishMama]

Wow, the story at the end! 😭 The nature therapy was so needed ❤ Thank you Morgan!

[@charoulachr]

I can relate with the always smiling thing. I also do it unintentionally, even while crying. 🤍🕊 Your interview was great! It's so You😊

[@cosyrisol]

Thank you Kaitlyn for your voice mail. It helped me so much. And of course a big thank to Morgan, for the opportunity to hear this words

[@anastasiaamoir9484]
