✨ about my channel
I will be sharing the ups and downs of life and how to attempt to get through it in one piece. I’ll be sharing realistic life advice, minimalism tips, anti-consumerism, vlogs, and anything else I think you would benefit from! life is messy and unpredictable, and learning how to manage these hurdles is the first step to leading a happier and more intentional life. we're all trying our best out here, and I just want to share what is and isn't working for me.
Sending you all my love,
Grace

Freeze mode is such a valid feeling when I'm overwhelmed. But wow congratulations on making it to September! it feels like just yesterday I found your channel on how to start a no buy year

[@gracenevitt]

thank you!!! 💗

[@Roxy4607]

Girl you better believe I can relate to that vacuum cleaner statement!! My mom literally bought a new one yesterday which means that I have acquired her old one and oh boy am I excited about that. Since I haven’t had a vacuum cleaner until now (just good ol’ broom and dustpan) I can’t wait to use it.. and boy does that make me feel old saying even though I’m only twenty😆 Only three minutes into the video but I’m sure I’ll love it as always🫶

[@gracenevitt]

there's just something that slaps about a new and useful appliance to make your life easier amiright? LOL

[@Roxy4607]

@@gracenevitt You said it😂

[@Pages_w_Paige]

You’re making a difference ❤ you’re encouraging me into my no buy!

[@teacherlovesbeauty]

I would love for you to continue a mindfulness update next year!❤

[@gracenevitt]

I feel like it would be really fun to just do little vlog updates throughout the month and have a reflection video to see how I was doing each month etc and then share some journal prompts with y'all on here hehe

[@teacherlovesbeauty]

@@gracenevitt yesssss!

[@carriecobb8]

I was literally thinking your hair looks really nice and then you said you cut your hair 😁 great job!

[@gracenevitt]

hehe thank you!!!

[@mariah660]

So glad I found your channel and what has helped me is turning off my KZbin history and by doing that, I only see channels I’m subscribed to.

[@gracenevitt]

smart!!

[@jesslewis7851]

I've done this too and love it

[@juliarenner7701]

I love your channel and becoming anti-consumerist together

[@brittaniemccommon2482]

Your videos have actually inspired me to do my own no buy challenge. I've gone a bit extra with it and have added meal prep as an activity to take up some of my time so i dont spend or doomscroll on my phone, among other things. So far in the last week or so, ive saved almost $350. I'm super excited to see that number just keep climbing at the end of a work week. Thank you for a realistic view on the no buy challenge.😊

[@gracenevitt]

that's awesome!!!

[@LetMeBeLighter]

I love love love your channel, Grace. You inspire me so much and I feel way less alone and relate so much. Thank you for being you 💜

[@clarasimmons6089]

getting sick during the summer is one of the oddest experiences

[@gracenevitt]

it really is!!! definitely not a fun time.

[@jay.el12]

Always count the wins! I'm very sure that if you look back at the year (even just in these videos) you'll see you've made some major wins and they appear to outweigh any 'losses' And at the end of the day, we will take a net win 😂😅

[@bootsieardito1816]

Hi I just wanted to stop by and let you know how impressed I was with your presentation on the HQ event. You were amazing and exactly the healing I needed after 3 days of intense purging. Thank you

[@gracenevitt]

aw thank you so much!!!

[@pjlacey3990]

Hilarious that you are the 2nd KZbinr this week that said she must be an adult because she also got very excited to get a new vacuum! 😂

[@gracenevitt]

lmaooo it must be in the air

[@mayasanders8776]

Hi there Grace! Question - what kind of vacuum were you gifted? :D

[@meisjeViv]

Fixing your cold the Dutch way 😅 call in sick, maybe take a simple over the counter painkiller, drink tea and wait 🙈

[@gracenevitt]

LOL amazing

[@CrisOnTheInternet]

You could have said that you swaped Flip for a less expensive version lol. Good that you were able to return the extra contacts. I'm on the same page, once the year ends, I think I'm going to keep the no buy streak, because I still have too much of everything 😅.

[@Isabella-bf4mo]

What vacuum did you get? I’ve been doing some vacuum searching

[@gracenevitt]

I ended up getting a (refurbished) dyson cyclone v10!! so far really loving it!

[@TB-qy1et]

Is sweet little Flip also around to play with your guest?

[@gracenevitt]

of course he is !! I'll try to capture some footage of them playing in an upcoming vlog hehe it's very cute!

[@nadja9331]

❤🌈

[@freshfreshfreshfresh]

Where’s Philip tho

[@gracenevitt]

Flip is still here!!! he's just a little more camera shy hehe

[@Mrsbee03]

I have been making awful decisions lately! Money wise! I applied to raise my credit card from 500 to 1000. Used to be 7500 but I paid it off (finally!) And why did I apply to raise it? Because I really wanted pretty editions of my favorite series, throne of Glass, and they are like 550 CAD. And I already have a physical brand new set, that I didn't even read because I listened to the books audibly! 😅 wtf is wrong with me! I didn't purchase them yet. But ughh 😑 I hate myself for even wanting to 😅

[@gracenevitt]

stay strong and save your money!!! you can enjoy it just as much by looking at and/or reading the set you already have !! 💗

[@Mrsbee03]

@@gracenevitt yes! I need to remember that! 😅

[@meisjeViv]

Don't beat yourself up for wanting things! You realised you didn't need the thing so now you get to choose and love-but-not-own it and feel proud instead 😊
