A Cozy Chat | Updates and Plans for the New Year

[@jpan7071]

It’s amazing to me that in spite of your personal issues you were able to get your book published, upkeep not one but two KZbin channels, and still create such high quality content. I can only imagine what you’ll do in 2024. I just know we are all grateful for your kindness and just plain goodness. Have a wonderful 2024 year❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

[@BOUJEEBOGANBADBITCHQUEEN]

She has a book out omg I should get it gotta find it first

[@lesleyobrien5842]

I haven't seen you this relaxed in a long time. Each month you seem to be a little more content in your being. Your home also seems to reflect your being comfortable in your own life. Many blessings to you and your little family.

I really loved the work shop making our prosperity spells

[@thraelen]

Happy New Year to everyone! I believe this year is going to be a much more balanced and prosperous year in so many different ways. It’s an even numbered year plus a leap year, so we are going in with more positive energy than usual! ❤🙌🏻 Also, Patreon - I’ve never joined one before and I’m newer to this one, but I have been loving it so far. I finally feel connected to other witches when I don’t personally know any and, as a newly-realized witch, I also have a ton of questions, so I’m very excited about the added livestream! 🌿

[@stevierysie]

I hope so, I have this feeling also!

[@lilsheba1]

I have your book and I am reading it now. I convinced one of my book clubs to have it be a book club selection!

[@TheGreenWitch]

oh how exciting!

[@marujaa1]

Happy New Year! Hope 2024 is a year of Health, Love and Peace.

[@charmeineca]

As a creative person with multiple disciplines, I get this so much. You really just need to look after you and find what works. I appreciate the content you share with us but please don't burn yourself out either. I think these are great goals. You might even realize you need to let something go which is what I had to do :)

[@carolynmarshall6666]

Happy New Year. I’d love content around plant care. Everything for how you choose your houseplants, managing disease, fertility, etc.

[@Tina-wi7we]

Happy New Year! I'd love to see a little video about all your houseplants. ✨🌿☀️💚✨

[@foxfire9320]

I second this 🪴🌿

[@jpan7071]

Please. Pretty please. With a 🍒 on top.

[@stacid-v2e]

That is what I was going to suggest as well. You have some beautiful plants in the background, some I recognize a lot I don't. It would be fun to take a tour of what you keep on your worktable and placed around your home 🌱🌿🪴

[@heatherloomis7255]

Thank you for all that you do chin up and keep up the good work. I hope you have a wonderful 2024. I love your channel and your book. I use your book a lot. Thank you again.

[@Celeste-new49]

I just left this comment on your "A Dream Come True" video on your other channel, but realized you might not read it - hope all is well - thank you again - take care : Congratulations! Thank you for sharing your journey and reflections. I discovered you a few weeks ago. You've been a huge help to me as I've been reflecting on my own's life journey a lot lately. You remind me a bit of what I was like when I was your age - I also started out on my own by traveling to the Salish Sea - WA is a place for growth and healing. You're helping me recapture that wonder I felt when I first came here. My favorite place for healing is Orcas Island - highly recommend. For a small town - I think you'd like Port Townsend. I'm not a herbalist/witch, but I will share your channels/book with those that I know who are interested more in this. I am going to check out anything you have on foraging and the like - I would like to know more about the native plants I've lived around for so long (yes, I'm still in WA - kept coming back even though I'm a nomad at heart - just realized I've been here for over 25 years - wow).

[@deborahdole9193]

Balance is everything.... easier said than done sometimes. I love how you prioritize staying positive and staying healthy. You are a wonderful role model for us. I appreciate you sharing your gifts with all of us. My spirit honors your spirit. 🙏

[@steveaustin6916]

Thank you for sharing. Your gentleness and positivity make an impact in my life and I find you very inspiring. I hope you achieve huge peace and balance this year. Thank you for all you do and your presence in the world.

[@forestgyrl]

Sounds like a great plan. Happy New Year, many blessings.

[@susan6038-u4g]

Best wishes to everyone in this New Year. Thank you for being here and sharing your self with us.

[@peggynorton5145]

Hope you enjoyed the Holiday season. Glad to see you.

[@jampuppy]

I appreciate the IG updates. One YT channel I watch posts a pic with the caption simply “Vlog out”. I enjoy your content whether witchy stuff or sharing your personal journey. I think you’re courageous, putting yourself out there. I admire that. 😊 Wishing you the best in ‘24!

[@dancinsilvermegs]

Wishing you an abundant, healthy, inspired and joyful new year dear Annie and community! My sister brought your book to me in South Africa and I’m currently marinating in your soothing, magical manuscript before bedtime each night. I feel your healing energy through the pages and am so grateful for you and your teachings! Thank you!

[@TheEmpressgoth]

❤happy new year 😊

[@johnbelcher7955]

Just a friendly comment to say that you are looking well and your energy looks much better, nice to see, have a good year!

[@w3sentry]

Compounds and Plant Medicines, for The New Year please.

[@scottstubbs5076]

I got your book and I loved it.

[@lanternheart]

Best of luck and wishes with your goals for the new year! Your videos are some of my favorites to watch to relax and unwind, and hearing that you're taking time for that yourself is well-met. As far as suggestions (though now might not be the best time of year for it), I'd love a video focusing a bit on herbal allies and wild projects from near the beach/sea, if you're open to it! I'm also a Pacific Northwesterner, and it's one of the places that I feel the most connected to nature, but also the most at a loss magically with the less-everyday plants, seaweeds, and whatnot (which aren't super commonly included in a lot of basic magical plant/herbal books).

[@connieclark6826]

HAPPY NEW YEAR twas a lovely presentation, as always. Have a great 2024 😊

[@justin_a_greenwitch]

I love the shots you get on your drone of those mountains. It's mainly on the other channel, but I'm just saying ❤

[@mjgeorge8684]

I've been following you for a couple years and think you're amazing! Love learning from you so much that you're the only one I watch on KZbin. 😊 Even though I look forward to each video and they have become part of my life and journey. They are not worth overwhelming yourself and having it affect your personal life/ health. Everyone needs a break luv so always take the time you need for self care! If some people can't understand that then oh well, they can move on. Much love and many blessings sent your way for a better, healthier and happier new year. Continue your path and what makes your heart happy and the rest will fall into place. 💕

[@foxfire9320]

I really enjoy these 'stock-taking' videos, especially when they discuss issues like burnout and finding ways to sustain doing what we love. Some might consider the practical issues of creative/soulful living a little on the boring side, but I love seeing how others move through these things :D Re. sharing about the difficulties you went through last year, personally, I 'm curious but I also don't *need* to know. Like many who've followed you a while and have some emotional attachment to your channel, there's some worry when we see you're going through something hard. But you don't owe us any details that you wouldn't want to share enthusiastically - truly. It's more than enough to say that you're doing alright or better. If it helps to share, then sure. But you don't owe us the same kind of 'answers' you would a good friend - even if people say they'll worry💚

[@niknoks6387]

Happy new year, looking forward to this year😊😊

[@941selena]

I got your book for Christmas❤

[@cindy.charbonneau]

happy new year 😊 I love your plan for 2024 and hope to see more herbs/plants profils. ❤

[@Klaus-McC]

off topic my mom got me your book i love it im taking notes

[@sbkrantz]

I would love to know more of what you do, and yet also get to know more about you. You intrigue me and I have gotten somewhat fond of you and your content. I enjoy watching you and learning more about you and what you do and enjoy.

[@PamelaDonnelly-l1i]

I follow you regularly and would love to hear more about your life! Thank you

[@witchofthelandandsea4143]

It’s so exciting to see your growth! 🎉

[@The.Spoonie.Witch66]

Can’t wait to see all that comes to your channels. ❤

[@peterfindlay2756]

Hi Annabel. Happy New Year. I watched your earlier video and was very interested in what you said about your book. I have been thinking about it all day and have just bought the book. I live in the SW of the UK and am interested in the way in which the ancestors used herbs etc for food and health., especially in this area which is full of iron ages remains.

[@Twistedtree7]

I got your book for Christmas and I am BEYOND excited to dig into it! Can’t wait for all of your new content!

[@witchNwand]

Wishing you and yours a very happy new year, Annabel. I look forward to seeing future videos, as they always bring me peace and help me to chill over a mug of tea 😋🍵 I bought your book last year, and find it to come in very handy with my craft 🤓📖 I hope sales have been good 💰 💰 💰 🤑 Love and peace go with you ❤ ☮️ 🙏 👋

[@jhbach151]

Happy New Year! Good to see you're doing well, Annie. I'm looking forward to another year and great videos. 💚

[@mariachijazmin3970]

Yay 🎉I love your videos! You gave the inspiration to learn how to make tinctures and more herbalism:) Granted I haven’t started on that but I have started growing my own plants 🌱

[@trishs.4326]

We love the content you share here . Thanks 🙏

[@trishs.4326]

Happy New 2024 lovely

[@gypsy1588]

I have been subscribed to both of your channels for a while now, and I just recently purchased your book and today I subscribed to your Patreon, One of my goals this year is to be more engaged in life and I feel joining your Patreon is the beginning of that.

[@jnuy764]

Best wishes with the new year ❤

Happy New year Dear Lady I love knowing you live in WA (my home ) though we have never met, I hope you and all those you hold dear are blessed with much happiness this year ! Xx I love your content Thank you for sharing as you do and for being true to you.

[@sarah-d3k]

Happy New Year, looking forward to all you have to share. I love your book and the series of videos you have with it. I cannot wait to see what you share with all of us this year.

[@demeterontheinternet]

I hope you have a good year and work around your best pace ❤

[@abbyswaringam3386]

Maybe your new Livestream for questions could be like an "office hours". Maybe you could call it "The Witch is In" like a fairy tale shop sign vibe 👀

[@TheGreenWitch]

ooo! I love this!!!

[@abbyswaringam3386]

@@TheGreenWitch ❤️yay

[@GalactiCat-333]

got your book for christmas! it’s helped me so much already to get me back into my practice! you are a wonderful writer :3

[@akashaseekers]

I would LOVE to see how your new creativity can be harnessed as strength and courage through herbs and ceremony. So I have had a hard year last year as well and strength and courage/acceptance is my new jam. I love how true and vulnerable your videos are (on both channels) and I love your new commitment to over come burnout. We all go through this and as women we have extra hormonal cycles that we can tune into through nature. You're not there yet, but menopause is it's own "fun". Accepting a non hormonal replacement route has been not a choice for me, but it is not healthy for me to add extra estrogen. So if you can do a video for us old gals and our hormonal challenges that would be fantastic. 🦋

[@stevierysie]

Happy New Year! I ordered your book for myself for Yule. I can’t wait for it to get here. I am finding myself drained after spell work. Is this normal? I am still new to knowingly practicing. Thank you, blessed be.

[@DestinyGodden]

Yes, it can be common to feel drained after spell work.

[@stevierysie]

@@DestinyGodden okay, thank you. I was worried I was doing something wrong. Blessed be.

[@Kira_Martel]

Many magical practices include grounding and energetic hygiene before and after spellwork to avoid this energy drain and make sure you are using energy from the earth/nature/universe/source and not just your own personal energies.

creo que dejaré esto por aquí y me iré lentamente. He visto como trabajas y extraes las propiedades de la planta, la tierra al pasar por la raíz no ha terminado de transmutar y sus propiedades son distintas, pues su composición molecular no se ha descompuesto de forma completa para dar el nutriente que obtiene para la flor. Hace mucho trabaje con raises. Pues tuve la dicha de tener donde plantar sin interferencia en su campo, y obtuve buenos resultados.

[@mamazeno1672]

I started watching you when you had very short hair and I have to say you are now a totally different Person. I felt that you were not yourself back then, perhaps influenced by someone else. You seem more settled now.🙂

[@foxfire9320]

Interesting, I didn't get that feeling at all 🤷‍♀

[@DestinyGodden]

If you go back and watch her videos before she cut her hair you might have some more insight as to what was going on her in life then.

[@GravesRWFiA]

I don't mean to sound pushy but if you could let us know, if only on patreon what is happening in your life so we have an idea of what's wrong. I know it's obvious for you but when there's a s/o in your life and referenced and suddenly that person is gone, we're left distracted. 'what happened to X' we don't need the deep details, 'she ate chinese noodles in bed' but just broad strokes. you talk about your health and I've followed you for years but don't understand what it is. Me being me i assume terrible dark things, which naturally worries me.

[@dr_janders_]

Agree ​@@rebeccalarson1511

[@foxfire9320]

There are videos either on this channel or her vlog channel 'Annabel Margaret' where she talks about her health issues. She has Ehler Danlos Syndrome. Also, as a fellow worrier, I want to say that I do not need either broad or deep details. If I see my neighbour is suddenly single after living with an SO for years, I might wonder and even worry, but that doesn't mean she owes me answers. Parasocial relationships will always be a thing, but feeling like you owe an audience of hundreds of thousands of people 'answers' about your personal issues so as not to worry them, that's not the kind of pressure any human deserves.

[@DestinyGodden]

@@foxfire9320I agree ☝️

[@GravesRWFiA]

thank you for telling me, now i know what sort of issues are going on. when she says 'her health' as for relationships, I'm a romantic as well as a worrier. i remember when she was living at the cabin and someone asked 'will your g/f ever appear in your videos" and the answerwas 'voice off screen' no. but she was clearly a part of the life and then wasn't which is sad but having introduced her effectively even if only as a cousin it appearance of hands on the side, just to be told ''we split up' would be nivce. @@foxfire9320

[@Kira_Martel]

She shared in a previous video that she and her girlfriend parted ways because they both felt more like friends. That seems like enough of a share to explain it for those who were curious.
