A Konversation with Elizabeth Filips ♠️ KharmaKast

👋🏻 Hey! Welcome to my KharmaKast with Elizabeth Filips! 🎨
A 3rd year medical student at King's College London, a talented artist and someone who has recently been thrust into the world of youtube and social media. Her editing style is unique and her soothing voice has me hooked. She is also an absolute productivity machine which always wins brownie points in my books! 🍪
We talk about all things ranging from toxic productivity, what it's like to be vulnerable and put yourself out there on the internet, gaining popularity online so quickly, and the importance of having hobbies to help you disconnect from the hustle and bustle of everyday life 🏙🎨👩‍💻

Omg finally! Been waiting for a new episode since foreverrrrrr

[@rafaellaoishi5887]

Yassss, excited to hear it!!

[@randomniche1345]

those last words by elizabeth brought me to tears, when she talked about how she spent 3 years getting the money for medical school. as someone who wants to study medicine but has been struggling because of different reasons (mainly financial and national) that advice gave me so much courage knowing that i'm right not to give up.

[@akeefaziyauddin8342]

Great to hear you both together

[@floraemmajofrohriep4793]

Thank you Nasir for introducing us to all these study youtubers! So motivating!

[@aimeeseyer9693]

I gotta say as a new KZbinr, I find myself nodding when they were talking about their "early stages." So great to hear about your experiences and thank you for sharing how you started! It definitely makes it less lone-some to start on this new journey :)

[@Dr.AnushkaSisodiya]

I really liked the point, that you said not to care about how you look, or how's the lighting, but what's important is the content you provide. :)

[@bobblue_west]

Never seen Kharma so shy. Lovely interview.

[@leilacalliope1986]

Ms. Elizabeth's smile is enchanting 🥺💛

[@iamaghost7971]

Was not expecting this one, but it’s my favourite so far!!!! Elizabeth has such a great personality.

[@knez1018]

Great chat! And I also wanted to say that since we watch Your and Elizabeth's content we find you interesting and when you find someone interesting its natural to want to know some personal things about them so thats why we enjoy Q&As and that kind of videos :)

[@amsa2462]

Oh wow! I saw her videos 2 days ago on YT and now she's a guest in Kharmakast! Amazing ❤️

[@akshat2617]

Lovely to see this episode ❤️

[@tonyhtran]

I love hearing how someone gets to organise their life and gets productive (and having a minimalistic life) This is the reason why I love you guys and Ali and Thomas.

[@astudentstudying6199]

I've been watching Nasir for so long and just started watching Elizabeth. I'm so EXCITED for this one 😂

[@rafaeligorrubira148]

I have Discover this podcast recently (although I already watched your vídeos at Kharma Medic) and I am listening while I am running every day. Please, do more Podcast like this, it's Very relaxing when doing exercise. Congratulations for your job, Nasir. You inspire me a Lot. Regards from an accounting at Brazil (nothing related to medic things, but still love your vídeos). 😊

awwwww that was so great!! Kings medics WOOT WOOT

[@xinjiechin]

I really loved watching this video! It's great to see you guys explain about "toxic productivity"! Really like getting your perspectives of youtube. I'll learn to respect your privacy more! Didn't know how overwhelmed Elizabeth sometimes feel. I think youtube is more of a two sides with one sided interaction - if you get what I mean. As a viewer I think that I actually know you or that we're friends but that's only because I watch your videos and you don't know me at all! So maybe that's why you value your privacy all the more?

[@everydayleticia]

This podcast episode is a banger. I relate to the KZbin part of this episode since I am just starting my KZbin channel. I agree that you have to start from somewhere and my first drawings were also not the best but I have improved.

[@ifrahthemedic]

This was an absolute joy to watch and this podcast is quickly becoming my new favourite! Loved the discussion about art being the calm in a crazy hectic world and then about how you view productivity especially in the world of study tube. Absolute banger of an episode🔥

[@elizabethfilips]

Love to see this Ifrah! Thank youu

[@kierayumin5584]

I love this episode with Elizabeth, she is my new favorite youtuber! She is so fascinating, her lifestyle, her insight on productivity and art.. and her minimalist home..I am looking forward to watch more of her future videos and learn more from her:)

[@elizabethfilips]

Awhh thank you so much Kiera 😭

[@nospaceforsadness816]

Ommggggg yessss i ammm sooo happyyyyy

[@zain-ym2it]

It was so interesting . I enjoyed it with a cup of coffee Thank you Nasir

[@d26s10]

Nasir, I’ve never met you in person so don’t have a comparison like Elizabeth and your gf who say you come across ‘cooler in person’ and more ‘robotic’ in your videos. As a viewer, I’d say we definitely get to know ‘you’ more in your personal life vlogs, when you travel, when you show your daily life and routines etc. So my suggestion would be to add more of these raw videos because let’s be honest, when any of us are in professional work mode, we have to watch what we say and question every piece of advice we offer. I wouldn’t worry too much about bridging that gap though unless it realllllly bothers you because I can assure you that your good, honest, kind hearted nature is always evident. 💗

[@KharmaKast]

That’s a really wonderful insight, thank you!

[@nora-lifeinvetschool7883]

Enjoyed this a lot! 💭 On the topic of toxic productivity I just wanted to say that I liked your clarification on the fact that this is just how *you personally* live your lives and what you personally *enjoy* doing. I believe one of the main issues is that the portrayal of med students/study youtubers in general tend to be very one-sided and leaning towards extremely productive people sharing their lives - meaning that the perceived normal becomes skewed. People who enjoy watching study KZbin content might get the impression that this is the only way of being a successful student. I definitely get the impression that some people make an effort to portray themselves in a similar way because they think it is the only "right" way to be, if that makes sense, thus contributing to this one-sided view of student life. Your clarification that this isn't necessarily the case and that you don't expect this to be the case for everyone really resonated with me 😊

[@KharmaKast]

Thanks for this point of view, it’s really helpful to understanding the TP problem. Appreciate it!

[@mahalrishda5683]

You guys! This was so insightful. As a regular viewer who enjoys watching both of you, I have to admit that I've always felt the pressure of being more productive like you guys. But I never really looked at it this way that this is actually what u guys like to do, how you guys like to spend your time. And I think this has encouraged me to follow my heart on a whole new level. Thanks a lot!

[@elizabethfilips]

Thank you so much for this comment Mahal, so grateful for Nasir giving us the chance to talk about it!

[@KharmaKast]

Really appreciate this POV!

[@romansoehuazelei1925]

I am looking forward to it.

[@samuelstolle]

I love that you started a podcast, Nasir, these One-Hour-Conversations are so inspiring!👌🏻Looking forward to listening to you and Elizabeth!🎧

[@KharmaKast]

Thank you!!!

[@hameley12]

Some of the things you guys shared are so relatable to me. I've been through a few hundred + YT channels that I look up or YT algorithm recommends to me. Whether that topic was good or bad, not interesting I watch it. I don't hit like nor dislike, and I don't comment anything negative out of respect for the creator. If the topic is certainly interesting and much needed I hit like, comment and save it to my playlist. I create my own notes from that video because I know that video, 4 mins, 5 mins, 30 - 40 mins was/is much needed for productivity or leisure for myself, such as creative writing, art, or journaling. I don't like wasting my time with videos I know are not my interest or give me a grand headache at the end. I don't know why that happens but I really can't sit through 30 - 40 mins of uninteresting dilemma or topic. I've been thinking for over three years to start a YT channel but every time I ask myself "What do I have to offer?" after this chat, I think I will revisit my list of to-dos for a YT channel. Thanks so much, Nasir and Elizabeth.

[@saichaitanyadavuluri4502]

I also totally noticed the male medic KZbinr thing recently! I don't know why this is - particularly in the UK. It's definitely food for thought!

[@shraddhamishra4952]

Loved it you guys 🌈

[@feriel2672]

A lovely podcast! As far as your content goes, you always make a point of stressing how all of it applies to your type of personality and that it should not by any means be perceived as the general standard. So I'd say you shouldn't worry too much about others perceiving it as an impossible standard to hold and such. You do you, share it and hopefully, it empowers and inspires others. So far it's been working terrifically. At the end of the day if some people misinterpret it's on them. Once you hit that publish button, the content is no longer yours to control. It is out in the world and subject to interpretations which is the way it should be. You're doing great!

[@KharmaKast]

That’s exactly how I feel - thanks for sharing your opinion!

[@nope82o2p2p]

[@shahadmamalchi4086]

Wow, really enjoyed this!!! I'm a big fan of Nasir & recently gotten into Elizabeth's videos. Such a cool collab tbh. Nasir, your interview style and the way you transition between topics with your guests, while still allowing them to shine & speak is amazing, and particularly inspiring to me at the moment. I'm launching a podcast soon in med school so definitely takes notes from you! 🖤 Keep up the amazing work. ps. this was a BANGER as always ✌🏻 lol
