WEEK IN MY LIFE in the city | work, friends, exploring the city + feeling “stuck”

[@NatalieBarbu]

Completely feel you on feeling stuck. I’m glad you can relate because sometimes it can make you feel so alone!!

[@brookemiccio]

totally!!!! I think for a type of “career” like ours it’s easy to get caught up in self doubt 😞

[@paytonyoung9018]

I would love to see a “bagel tour” of nyc/lower east side. Trying out bagels at different bagel shops in your area! Just a thought 🙂

[@spwaff.]

omg ! that’s such a good video idea for her !😀

[@IvyHindman]

Omg wait I looove this idea

[@ariannawestley]

OMG YES!

[@daniellepreece5881]

“We already dressed cool once this week. That’s enough.” Hahahaha my thoughts almost every week.

[@IvyHindman]

Lmfaoooo that made me laugh too

[@sabrinamcmurray8252]

hey brooke, what i spend in a week nyc edition would be fantabuloussss💖

[@Sarah-ru4tp]

BROOKE! & anyone feeling stuck!!! i’m taking this mindset class this semester & the idea of feeling “stuck” isnt abnormal & it’s actually a real thing! it’s a sub category of procrastination due to perfection. putting off starting something bc you’re afraid the end product won’t be good is just another bad habit! wish i could link what we read for class cuz it was so good 🥺

[@parisw4849]

Been loving brookes videos even more recently

[@becca7427]

Same! Something about the transition from Boston to NYC, she’s really maturing and growing into herself and I love it!

[@annkathringeorgi2326]

you have become my #1 favorite KZbinr since the pandemic. I am always so excited to watch your videos.. No matter how stuck or discouraged you might feel just know that there are people here who absolutely love and support you! You are such a light and I hope you know that 😊🌻

[@kaylatcompton]

It definitely goes in waves right now! One week I'll feel so motivated and productive and the next week I feel stuck and in a rut! It's been a crazy year and I'm learning to be okay with whatever I'm feeling!

[@katherineanderson7157]

The outfit with the denim jacket and black and white skirt was so cute!!!

[@SamElle]

honestly at this point you should be a chomps brand ambassador!! YOU GOT ME HOOKED ON THEM LOOOL

[@gidelvia]

I definitely feel this way! I know my potential and then when it comes to the execution I always get stuck as well! And it is definitely self sabotage - we sometimes think the execution won’t come out like what we have envisioned. It’s the worst but happy you brought this up!! Just what I needed to hear!

[@haleyuzelac1030]

omg the amount i relate to this!!!

[@IvyHindman]

Yess I agree it’s definitely self sabotage becauseim like well it’s not ganna be how I want it

[@madysondavis3903]

no one: brooke: h!o!w!d!y!!! 🤠

[@annagerwig3905]

Brooke I totally relate to that feeling! I make plans and then feel frozen - like I can’t do anything about it. Personally, I think I’m afraid somehow I’ll mess it up... which isn’t even true haha but working through it! Also - love the week in my life videos but happy with whatever vlog format is best for you :)

[@briannebarrett203]

I feel you on being stuck big time! I kinda feel like my life doesn’t align with majority of my friends lives now..some are married, I’m the only one with my career so far, and some are still staying out to 7am lol growing up is hard

[@cocacolalada]

I have been watching you for a few years, Brooke. I really love your content. I don't like how so many other youtubers are unrelatable. I also like that you just show your everyday life of a person who is living alone, working from home, in new york during the pandemic and this crazy election. Its very relatable and realistic for alot of people right now. I feel because alot of us are not pursuing our traditional careers, that it can be easy to feel stuck doing the same (but different stuff) everyday. I moved back home after living overseas with plans to leave the country again, but coronavirus took that opportunity away from me. So I am sitting her unemployed working on my next course of action. Just wanted to reach out and say your videos have come with me, during school, during boring contract work, I even had an internship last summer where I wound up so bored I would actually just turn your videos on and listen to them in my headphones, because watching your videos really makes my day for whatever reason! I am 26, and in a very relatable world to you, so thanks for coming along my journey with me, even though we don't know each other! The day you stopped making youtube videos I would probably cry. I have only been following a few youtubers for a long time and you are one of them. Sometimes, I think even as subscribers, we have times where we really watch most of the videos of our favorite youtubers and other times we barely open the youtube app. Life is definitely a roller coaster, my mom said some years suck and others are great. Its constantly changing, and there are always challenges. Dont get upset if you cant be overly creative in the moment or even for a few months, that ebbs and flows too. I am totally cool just watching you make vidoes of how you make your iced coffee, cook your breakfast, or even how you clean your house. Believe it or not what some content creators think is stupid and their viewers dont like -- we actually love!

[@torihanson1696]

I love Hannah Elise! I’m so glad she’s getting more recognition, she’s amazing!

[@savannahp7980]

i love how relatable you are! keep doing you ma’am!

[@synchrosb1]

I've been loving Brooke's videos more and more recently, I don't know what it is - but I get super excited every time she uploads!!!

[@allisonweaver1001]

Brooke you're wayyyy to hard on yourself. The sunglasses looked AMAZING on you. The biker short moment phenomenal! You're killing it! WE love Brooke in the city!

[@juliaseitz2384]

I love the Trader Joe’s hauls!

[@IvyHindman]

Saaame. I wish we had them here

[@dashaslifee6810]

thank you so much for getting real on the topic of feeling stuck!! felt nice and comforting to hear someone go through that as well

[@louwaynetrinidad6840]

I understand this completely and it feels so good to have you, a youtuber I look up to, understand this feeling. I thought I was the only one and thought I was alone in this. Thank you for sharing!!

[@chelseakardokus8729]

I love your hair straight, Brooke!

[@saraht.b5268]

I can totally relate, I often feel so stuck but i have come to the realization that I stop myself because I don't think I can do something perfectly on the first go, so what's the point? I thought I was making excuses and being lazy but really it's just your perfectionism stopping you. You are definitely not alone!! Love you Brooke!

[@beautythroughrecovery1724]

Brooke, I love watching your videos. I love how you are so open and honest. You’re very relatable. I, too, have been feeling “stuck.” I’m not sure if that’s the word I want to use. I just feel like I’m not where I’m meant to be, in life. Idk. It’s crazy. I’m turning 31 next week, but it’s never too late to change your entire life.

[@SamElle]

youre truly thriving in nyc and it makes me so so happy!! I think this was the best decision you made!!!

[@mely3088]

All your outfits are always cute but idk why I was in love with the outfit at 23:54. Looks really good on you Brooke ❤️

[@JessicaMtl]

She’s referring to the jeans & leather jacket outfit. You’re welcome

[@eILEENonyou13]

omg “stuck” is the word I’ve been using for how I feel! I’m right there with you Thanks for addressing this bc it makes me feel not so alone and depressed. I love your content keep it coming! Your uploads give me life.

[@myrasaavedra3422]

omg why is this exactly what i needed to hear! 🥺 i’ve been feeling stuck but felt like i was the only one or that people who are further in their journey didn’t feel this way. silly i know, but i felt like others who have what i want were like at the top and done! but that’s not the case everyone has goals and new mountains to climb. thank you for sharing brooke 💗

[@royaforooghi7919]

All of your outfits were so cute!! Even the one where you said you didn't look cool with the hoodie and biker shorts, it really puts into perspective how we see ourselves versus how others see us because I loved the look

[@aneliamelissa8601]

wow I have always felt like that and I can never find a word for it and I can never explain it. thank you for putting it into words and talking about it. I relate to how you are feeling and I honestly don’t know how to get out of it. wishing you the best girl💛

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

It makes me so happy to see you walking everywhere and just having the best time on your own! Do you always feel safe walking during the day? Do you carry pepper spray or anything?

[@daniellejordan.p]

the idea of “doing all the work but not moving the needle” is something I’ve struggled with for SO long when it comes to KZbin. sometimes it feels like I have 7 years of work under my belt & nothing to show for it. thank you for mentioning that, definitely made me feel better to know that im not the only one who feels frustrated by this. 🤍

[@vollmerfamilyct235]

yessss the long videos are defiantly my favorite. literally the perfect way to start the day

[@keishapettway]

My favorite week in the life vlogs to watch!!

[@Lauren-dm4it]

Love seeing you thriving in NYC. Your videos truly make my days better

[@divaakat253]

Brooke you are thriving I swear I need your energy today!!! 💕💕💕 lol

[@jordanschnee13]

it's always so fun to see that a youtuber you watch, also watches someone else you watch! i love hannah elise!!

[@megdewsnap]

girl YES you put the words in my mouth!!! glad to see everyone else in the comments feel this way too

[@danielleinfante5086]

I’ve been lovinggg the new editing!! It’s so cute & shows more of your personality

[@samanthabissell22]

Yes absolutely make more days/weeks in the life they're my favorite I can totally relate to feeling stuck fabulous video

[@ShopVolumeTwo]

LOVE your nyc content! You look so happy

[@kalisue6573]

Love these week in the life vlogs! Really love the last outfit so cute!

[@NutritionallyNicole]

I love that you actually talked about being stagnant in growth when it comes to careers, etc. I think it so easy to assume that everyone around you has it all together and is always on their A-game with project execution and career moves. I absolutely love what I do (being a registered dietitian providing virtual nutrition counseling/programs) and sometimes find myself in phases of feeling stuck or at a standstill of growth. It is frustrating but something that really helps me is reminding myself of the reason I started and why I fell in love with this career path at the beginning of it all. =)

[@isabellecioffi418]

thank you for talking about feeling stuck and stagnant, kinda where im at right now i think its super important to vocalize it! xo hope you are well!

[@deloracomfort8960]

I love seeing the shots of the NY streets

[@stephanielake11]

I know sometimes when I feel stuck it's because I overthink things, and am fearful of the future/outcome of whatever you're trying to work on. Or sometimes it's because I'm doing the same things every day, and nothing really new or super exciting is happening in my life. Often what helps me get out of this phase is to take a mini-trip somewhere (it might be hard at the moment because of Covid, but if you can). Or I do something that is "super fun" and different from what I would normally do fo fun. It's strange but I moved around the furniture in my condo to create a different energy flow....there's a movie with Mandy Moore (called "Because I Said So"" - an amazing movie btw) & her character often moves around her furniture too. Switching up your routines, and trying new things may spark your creative mind even more...and then feeling less "stuck." Am glad you can talk to family & friends about it as that can help a lot too. I think most people go through this feeling "stuck" phase......am sure something will change.....and help you get through it. Ooohh also try lighting up some sage, and clearing the energy too. Sending you much love, light & positive energy from Toronto!!

[@emilychamberlain9033]

Brooke you can pull off anything! I loved the biker shorts look and the sunglasses you rented! It’s all about confidence babe💕

[@christinalee9336]

You may feel stuck but you’re killin it girl 💗 totally ok to have “lows” energetically/creatively

[@emac13620]

Fashion pass is the the BEST!! I know the owner, she’s the sweetest and built the company all by herself!! They have the best customer service and cutest clothes! Tip- if you leave reviews on all your items you get credit per review. FP was the best during a time when a bunch of my friends and I were getting married so we had so many events and my honeymoon and it’s one of those services it seems like I get paid to promote but really it’s just that great. Enjoy!!!

[@kaylashorter5911]

I’m a little late but Loving this video so far! I can finally relax & watch, instead of filming/editing!

[@joymae]

I love any NYC content because NYC is the best

[@Phoenix-eb6he]

LOVED all of your outfits in this vlog!

[@eringuerard501]

I definitely relate, I just graduated school and haven’t started work yet so I’ve had a lot of down time and feelings like you described. You’re not the only one!

[@floress__maria]

I feel you on being stuck! I concur with the astrology comment as to why but beyond that I just feel like life in general is gearing up to majorly change but I still feel like I’m paused regardless. It’s weird bc I just went through a lot of life changes within the last two weeks but still feel like I haven’t done anything worth it.

[@laysss1]

Completely understand how you feel. I can relate as I feel at a stagnant point in my life.

[@agatatomicka8537]

'I already dressed cool this week, I think that's enough' 😂😂😂 omg I can relate to this so much!

[@emilymiller7788]

it always makes me sooo happy when you post new vids... i swear i have rewatch all your vlogs!

[@lexilopez23]

That just fab outfit has Blair Waldorf quaking

[@jk9817]

Yes I love the weeks in my life!!!

[@kendraguhy]

I LOVE your hair straight. Its so pretty!

[@akhannnnnnn]

Brooke, It’s okay to feel stuck and it’s even better to share that with someone! Love your videos!!❤️

[@OliviaFrescura]

The just fab outfit was sooo cute on you! I love that idea for an event, I have a feeling there's gonna be more 1 on 1 things coming up here in LA too. I love all of your jeans- gonna have to check out some Levi's! And the La Colombe draft latte is my absolute FAVE.

[@charleeeeeeeee]

those abc bars from trader joes are a tbt from last year when you packed one every single day with your salads for your work lunch hahahaha

[@eliashleyy]

Where is your TV stand from? I love it!

[@bellalomonaco9883]

Would you do an updated what I spend in a week NYC edition?!

[@katharris769]

you should get one of those carts the people have for groceries (like the one danielle used in her last video), it’ll make your life so much easier imo!!

[@audreypalen9988]

I definitely have the SAME feeling. I have all these ideas but I think sometimes I don’t start them or do them because I don’t want to fail or something I dk it’s hard to explain but I KNOW what you’re talking about!!!

[@tanikanorton3141]

Long vlogs are the vibe! Don't stop xx

[@Mm-rz3nr]

[@KateRussellVideos]

Brooke thank u for putting a smile on my face with every video you post!!💗

[@meghanrand5189]

Start small with trying new things! Small steps get you further than no steps 💗

[@lindsaymiller6760]

I love ur videos like this! Always look forward to em!

[@luvumuch21]

I literally love her so much. Most relatable Influencer everrrrr 💞

[@madison9448]

Your videos are now apart of my Saturday routine!!

[@PMSL12]

The best walking shoes are Allbirds! Soooo comfy would recommend for walking in the city.

[@toyagolden3027]

Struck is an understatement! try going to a Art and Design school and being stuck when you entire life/ schooling revolves around being creative and coming up with new ideas. Trust me you are not alone. Thank you for sharing!

[@ellieaiken5432]

Hey Brooke! I saw this right when I woke up and got so excited to put it in the background while I got ready! ☺️❤️

[@cindylou5156]

I relate to your state of mind and I appreciate you sharing. I also love the outfits that you showed in the video!!🤩

[@alexculham7746]

100% feel you on the stuck thing! I also feel like during Covid it’s a more intense feeling, because even if you do have an action to take...you can’t because of covid often times.

[@stellalocker5510]

"we already dressed cool once this week" haha my mood every freaking day...also great video!!

[@TheSharky16rox]

YES IM SO STRESSED. like its such a stressful time in life

[@TheGofer7]

Major blaire waldorf vibes in the set!! Love this

[@valeriewilson182]

I haven't watched the video yet, but the plaid set you're wearing in the thumbnail is EVERYTHING!!!

[@hollyanncampbell]

I’ve been talking to my therapist about similar feelings recently and she referred me to a place to go get checked for adhd 🙃 which once I researched it, I really do feel like that could be the reason I feel “stuck” like you’re saying. I really hope your therapist has some great insight about that feeling!!

[@cassandrag8433]

Definitely keep up with the week in your life videos! Probably my favourite of yours, and what got me watching - maybe try editing as you go through the week? Like half way through edit hat you have. Also after a few months of the new clothes renting service can you do a video comparing the two?

[@caitlynpostelnick9893]

Would love to see a tour of NYC at night with all the lights! Been to New York once and obsessed. Hopefully going back next year!!! Obsessed with your Vlogs btw ❤️

[@sarahcasillas2291]

Girl, I feel you. I was diagnosed with a mental illness ( ocd ) which is often misused and very misunderstood in society, but it’s wrecked my life and It feels like i took 15 steps backwards. It’s so debilitating and sometimes I feel hopeless In the sense of being stuck and not progressing or relapsing from not being able to afford the therapy. I’m working towards getting better so I can live just a normal day to day life but we deff stuck lol.

[@inthepinkvlogs]

An app I use right now instead of going to counseling/therapy is called “Woebot” and it’s free. I’ve also heard good things about an app called “7 cups” and also Better Help that I’ve seen several KZbinrs provide discount codes for. Hope this helps!

[@sarahcasillas2291]

@@inthepinkvlogs that’s so sweet of you thank you! However, The therapy I need isn’t provided on those apps. I appreciate it though! Xx 🤍🤍

[@olbird7647]

If you haven't already, it may be worth looking up national/local OCD support organisations/charities. There will be many others in your position and they may have some targeted advice and support for you 😊

[@skyyy_dancer]

I love when you wear the weed zit stickers

[@Meeshhhh]

LOL

[@sarahelizabeth1919]

I feel you on being stuck- my youtube channel has been stagnant for so long and its hard to follow through with ideas i have! You’re doin amazing sweetie

[@natalielambrelli630]

Your videos bring me so much happiness!!

[@saraschwartz7817]

you NEED to be a guest on the morning toast!!!

[@chelseakardokus8729]

“in my brain, I think of things” 💀🤍

[@emilyp333]

Loving these vlogs! That coffee creamer from TJ's is amazing!

[@eILEENonyou13]

lol when you were talking about trying to pull off the biker shorts and socks cute look I totally related 😂😂 I always try it and I just look out of place. P.s. you killed it though!

[@Crisdnab]

This is one of the best vlogs yet!!!

[@AlyssaPoplaski]

your nails look so good!
