Oh Charlotte! 💖💖💖 Wow. First and most importantly, I'm so glad you trusted your instinct and removed the implants. Chronic debilitating pain and inflammation is depressing and crushing. Good for you. Second, please post whatever your heart desires - fitness, books, makeup, fragrance, life chats, cooking, diet, whatever. We love YOU and will watch whatever you post. Third, I can relate to EVERYTHING you said in this video. Social media can be a garden to cultivate creativity and joy, or it can easily turn into a hamster wheel and suck the life out of you. I felt every word you said and have thought much of it myself. Lastly, I am so touched by what you said about me! I honestly had no idea you felt that way about me. I was in tears and wanting to reach into the screen to hug you! I think you are amazing just as you are and bring your own genuine, unique, adorable light to KZbin. Please continue to post whenever and whatever moves you, and know that I fully support you and cheer for you! Hugs, my friend! 🫶💖🫶💖🫶💖

[@CharlotteRossx]

Aw, thank you so much Veronica! 🥰🤗🤗 You are so wonderful and I appreciate you so, so much my friend. ❤️❤️

[@amandahetisimer3176]

Awww I love you both! I’ve been subscribed to both of you for a very long time and although I’m not on KZbin everyday, I try to catch both of your videos as I can. I genuinely enjoy your content and I would enjoy watching whatever you choose to put out. Thanks for being so candid Charlotte don’t be afraid yo be you!

[@CharlotteRossx]

I originally filmed this video in June… and it’s now September. It took me months to muster up the courage to just post this; let it go, move on. I have a hard time showing up this vulnerable and I have gone back and forth on whether to share or keep this to myself. I kept waiting to be “ready” and, of course, not only did that never happen, but I felt less ready as time went on. 😂🥴 I have a lot of anxiety around posting in general, but that's another story, Ultimately though, I am on a journey and I recognise that documenting my process will sometimes be messy, imperfect, and vulnerable. My voice may be soft and slow at times, my shoulders may slump (sitting cross-legged sure puts me at ease but will accentuate this and, well, had I known…), and my lack of clarity may be evident - but this is a part and moment in my life and I want to be able to show up authentically as I am, even when I am struggling and am unsure of myself. I spent this summer away from social media; or, at least, not actively participating on social media I should say. I still scrolled, I still checked, I still watched a lot of KZbin. I spent a lot of time with myself in quiet, with my family, in the sun, reading, writing, playing music, and generally resting and recovering. There is so much I am not mentioning here or in this video that I will probably keep private for various reasons. I hope you all had a great summer and are enjoying these early fall days. Thank you guys for being here every step of the way and for your support and viewership; I appreciate you all. ❤

[@calibrating770]

Aww here's a much missed lovely face❣ It can be hard to perform as a 'positive force' at times, since vulnerability often does make you a target...And very few of us are invincible...😹

[@MariaMeliora]

I dunno what it is about this summer that made so many of us seek refuge and take extensive time off life as usual. So many feiebds are going through some kind of cocooning , mysekf included. Love you girl, kisses and hugs ❤❤❤❤

[@heatherbondy3192]

Way to go! Thank you for your bravery & authenticity. We care about you.

[@CharlotteRossx]

Maria! 😍🤗 Oh, yes, the cocooning phase. We mustn't rush it or fight against it; just let it do its work. 😂🥰@@MariaMeliora

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you ❤❤@@heatherbondy3192

[@seekingstarwater371]

I hope you realize how much you are helping others by sharing your story . You have been missed ! BTW vids about anti inflammatory diet would be awesome ! Most perfume lovers have other interests too , so film what’s on your mind . Hugs !!

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you so much. ❤️🤗

[@MarcelenaTheresa]

Charlotte I’m still watching you and have been for year! You’re always so calming, like me lol. I’m a Nurse and I know how they don’t listen In Healthcare and they think it’s all in your head. So glad you know your body and was able to figure it out, thank God. Anywayzzzzz girlfriend I love transparency, heck I don’t even edit my vids, I talk about random things like travel and healthcare. I have hot flashes on camera and I just roll with it 😅. I already give enough of my time to what I love. Those that love us will, those that don’t will move on. So happy you’re in a healthier space love 💕. Thanks for sharing and loved this live chat 🙏🏾

[@CharlotteRossx]

Hi Marcelena! Thanks so much for the positive vibes - I love what you shared and I'm with you. 🤗

[@dr.claire.perfume]

KZbin is a LOT of work if you are into it. It's basically a part time job. If you are good, it looks effortless but it's really not and people who don't make videos often don't know what certain expectations actually translate to behind the scenes. I'm sorry about you illness, I am glad you figured it out. I have had issues and doctors really just wait for you to figure it out sometimes... I realised I had all the symptoms of iron deficiency but I've still no idea WHY I am iron deficient. Three months in, on 630mg a day, I am going to have a blood test to see if I am at normal levels again 🤞 Same with the eyesight. I never needed glasses until KZbin... And yes, there's nowhere for people to misunderstand more than on KZbin 👌 you are spot on. Lots of love ❤

[@CharlotteRossx]

I know you know! 😂🤗 I hope you feel better soon and at the very least are able to find solutions now that you actually know you are/were iron deficient. And you too with the glasses only since KZbin? 😱😅 Thank you, Claire; I appreciate you. 🤗❣️

[@CarmenScentrix]

It does feel very limiting to only grow and have a channel if you talk about 1 topic. It takes all the fun out eventually. I related to this sooo much. Even the fact that I only came to the perfume space to talk about something lighthearted. I have another channel that's more serious but perfume was just for fun and now it's getting serious and less fun. 😢 So glad you found the source of your illness and were able to reverse it. 🙌 I found Ilythia through perfume but really resonated with her take and struggle with consumerism. She has inspired me to declutter my entire home and just keep the essentials. I love her channel even more now because it feels even more authentic! I believe you would find the same if you talked about things that you felt inspired too. You would find your people!! Veronica is also a huge inspiration to me!! She really is amazing! Something about her authenticity makes me feel more comfortable with my own!! Best of luck with the future of your channel, I will be here regardless. 🤗

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you so much for sharing! I'm glad this resonated with you. I have been loving Ilythia's channel so much as well and I too have been inspired to declutter and minimise clutter thanks to her. And I love Veronica for the same reason as you do. 🥰 Thank you for your support and encouragement; it means a lot. 🤗

[@julieg_quebec-julesselivre8641]

Oh Charlotte, I hope Veronica sees your video because she has been an inspiration to me too. Being 50, I thought I could be confident about myself but sometimes I slip and watching her video brings me back to my proud self of being a mom, worker, wife, friend and everything. Trying to be my best all the time and telling myself that I can be enough. Hang on! Take care of yourself, that’s what is important! By the way screens killed my eyes at a point where I can’t wear makeup around them without irritating them. So… I don’t wear makeup anymore. It sad because I own so much of it… 😅 But that’s life! Bisous xx

[@CharlotteRossx]

She is wonderful isn't she? 🥰 I'm glad watching her videos has such a positive effect on you too. And yes, you are enough! Thanks for the kind words and thoughts, Julie. ❣️

[@RachelleSpier]

Can REALLY REALLY relate to you about the KZbin burnout & comparison stuff. Honestly part of what you said literally gave me goosebumps. I’m a thrift content creator and I loved it - until my audience demanded more and more thrift videos and really nothing else. I almost felt like my audience didn’t care about ME, a multifaceted person with lots of interests and what made me feel creative and happy to create videos. Also just felt the aftermath of the algorithm punishing me if I didn’t crank out the videos. Last year also struggled in my personal life with a narcissistic relationship that just kept creating problems and drama in my life. It all came to a huge head & I’ve stepped away from my channel since spring. I totally relate to a lot of what your saying so just know, you’re not alone! ❤ Also personally I’m INTO other facets of your interests if you did ever want to make other content! I love perfume but I totally totally disagree with niching down (even if that’s what the platforms want) bc we’re freaking humans - not robots - we have layers and levels to ourselves! We have A LOT to share and that’s special! I’m personally also soooo into you taking more about nutrition, self development, psychology!

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you so much for sharing! I'm glad this resonated and that you can know you're not alone. Unhealthy and abusive relationships are a whole other level of stress and I can't even imagine having a channel while going through that. I hope you are/were able to take the time to be there for yourself. I appreciate you being here and sharing your truths. ❤️

[@stephaniec4766]

We need people/creators like you, who are willing and able to step outside of the constraints of the algorithm and make authentic content. I don’t want to constantly be marketed to, that’s not why I watch KZbin and that’s not the type of content made by the channels I most enjoy watching. I do come here for you and your unique perspective and way of speaking. I love your perfume content. One of the best books I’ve read in years was a recommendation I got here from you. Really looking forward to your more varied content, however frequently or infrequently in comes 💗

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you so much Stephanie - your comment means a lot to me and I appreciate your share. I feel similar feelings and I'm glad to know I'm not alone. ❣️ I'm curious as to what book it is that you loved if you care to share. 😊

[@stephaniec4766]

It was Three Women by Lisa Taddeo. Also I’m originally from montreal and this is probably so weird but the last couple of times I’ve gone back I think of you lol. I went to Parfum Exquis!

[@CharlotteRossx]

Oh, yes, that book was great! And one I would like to reread some day actually. And, aw, I'm happy to be associated to Montreal for you. ☺️❣️

[@Jenn_N]

Thanks for sharing Charlotte. I think you need to follow your heart. You be you and put your family first. I took a big break from watching YT this Summer. It was making me feel bad, not making me happy. Now, I pop in to view what I feel drawn to view. My consumption is way down. I hope you are happy and have peace, whether you choose to add anything else to YT or not. Take Care! 💛😊✨

[@CharlotteRossx]

Yes, I so hear you Jenn! We all need to be more present with ourselves, our loved ones, our lives, Thank you and take care as well. ❤️

[@yourfragrantfriendj3986]

Thank you for sharing, being vulnerable is very difficult! You spoke your truth, I hope you feel relieved and empowered! 💛

[@CharlotteRossx]

Totally! And thank you. 🙏🏼♥️

[@miranda6253]

Hi Charlotte, just wanted to let you now that you’re not alone. We are here for you, and just be who you are. Much love.❤

Thank you Miranda; I appreciate that. ❤️

[@AS-mq1hr]

Thank you for being real and honest. I have more respect for someone like you doing a video like this, than someone just pushing products for money. I will watch whatever you post - you are genuine and I like that!

Thank you! ❣️

Charlotte first of all do whatever you need to do for be happy! Lifetime it’s just for once! But I want you to know that I’ll see EVERYTHING you post! Perfume, makeup, fitness, healthy food, motherhood, postpartum, weight gain… that’s all about me too!!! ❤️

So glad to hear this - thank you! 🤗❤️

[@thebet816]

Charlotte thanks so much for sharing. It takes courage. Im glad you are un a better place with your health. Life is short and the older you get the less you will care about pleasing others. Do what you want and there will always be people in your corner. Enjoy your life love. All the best❤

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you very much. 🤗❣️

[@caityrosey]

Charlotte. Thank you for sharing your story. I hope you can continue to feel safe being more open. You had an energy in this video you haven’t had in a long time. You weren’t trying to say pretty things. You were trying to say true things. Thank you. Speaking for myself, if you keep doing that I will definitely keep watching.

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you. ❤️

[@sandrasmith1035]

I’ll be here with you as long as YOU will continue to be this person I just met, “AUTHENTICALLY YOU💕

[@kar9990]

You touched on so many things. Abuse, being a hermit, doctors not knowing what's wrong, people pleasing, even the vision loss. I've gone & go through these things also. The screen addiction has got to end... for me anyway

[@CharlotteRossx]

I'm glad it resonated; thank you for sharing. ❤️

Hi Charlotte ❤ still going through your video and journey and I feel like saying I hear you: taking time from family and stressing out during hard times especially! An ethos is your channel, please do what you want of your channel, whatever feels right to you! ❤❤❤

Dear Charlotte, thank you sincerely for sharing. Being vulnerable, being concerned for your health, wondering where the hell am I going and « all the things » speaks to me in so many ways. I will always be here for whatever you feel you want to put out there. You are loved and appreciated. Big hug💙

Thank you Julie - I'm glad this resonated with you too. Big hugs back. 🤗❤️

[@canadafragrancereviewerdia9119]

Charlotte I’m sorry you have to go through hard times. I think people tend to think as a you tuber you don’t have another life and stresses just like any other person. Life is hard it’s gio ups and downs and illnesses and believe me when I hear you talk of breast implant sickness. It’s real I don’t have experience but have known of people that had to have them removed. If you know the famous Canadian Jenny Jones she had extreme sickness and removed them. We are all here for you and never judge and thank you for being so honest. Sending good wishes and hugs your way.

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you, I appreciate that! And I didn't know about Jenny Jones removing her implants. So many have been (and will go..) through this unfortunately.😞

Glad to see you back and very inspirational. For the record I have NEVER felt like you were not your authentic self in any of your videos. Love watching your content and I will continue to watch you no matter what that content looks like going forward ❤️❤️❤️I have implants also since 2022. So far no issues but very aware of the risks. I am so sorry you experienced BII and so glad you are better❤

Thank you so much Jennifer. ❤️ And I hope you never have issues with the implants - like you say, at least you know if anything ever develops you won't be in the dark and there's information and resources out there. 😊

I hate that the algorithm snatches ppl away from my feed. I came to your channel to check in. You didn't have to share this with us but thank you! You are a part of my KZbin community that I not only watch because you review fragrance in a meaningful way, but because I like you as a person and want to check in with you. I'm so glad you are better from you're health scare. I'm also glad that you feel relieved by letting all of this off of your shoulders. I totally feel you as a creator. You got this and we're here💜

I'm sorry to hear about all you've gone through recently. Personally, I'd like to watch anything you're willing to share on your channel. This is your platform and you should feel free to upload anything you want without pressure or obligation to your audience. And when you need to step away for a mental break, please do so. No one can care for you the way you can. I can relate to your experiences and I too love fragrance, health, fitness, strength training, and emotional wellness. I'd watch all those topics if you were willing to share them. We care about you, Char. It's good to see you again. ❤ Many blessings over you and your KZbin career.

[@momof5family138]

Wow, thank you for sharing!! Hope all is better now and continues to get better for you and your family❤ I would love to see more videos like these, about your health journey, education on what works for you health wise like types of food or meal prepping, counting macros, and what exercises have worked for you, makeup videos as well! Do it all, that’s the awesome thing about having a KZbin channel, you can do the content you love! It really doesn’t have to be about just one thing! As an avid KZbin watcher, I notice the channels that do well are those that do do different content and not just one thing all the time. You got this!!! You can do it!

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you so much for the suggestions and support! And I agree - my favourite channels tend to be an eclectic mix of content with the common denominator just being a creator I love to watch or be with in general.

[@momof5family138]

@@CharlotteRossx yes agreed! Just do what makes you happy!!! Plus the more diversity, more people will watch! I notice those that do well or pick up a lot of followers are those that’ll post more during a week. So if you can dedicate maybe 3 days initially and put out a lot of content then skim back to 2 times or even once. Or do what some do and film like 5 videos in one day and put those out throughout a week.

[@boogiepimp78]

My personality is very much the same as yours with very similar interests and passions. Introvert and identify as an HSP and perfectionist. Love being alone. It sets us up for having so much pressure and stress with anything we take on as we give 100% and find it hard to provide less than that. I have been through burnout before with doing a job that maybe wasn’t so authentic to me and having to force out that energy and act differently was expending so much energy that I taxed out my Adrenals and went into what people describe is Adrenal fatigue or HPA Axis dysregulation. It’s taken a long time to feel much better. It’s such a process! But what helped me recently is exploring things that occurred during childhood that ultimately shaped my personality and the way I relate to people, stress and experiences. Basically adverse childhood events can do this and how we learn to cope as children becomes default programming that operates the rest of our lives until we realize it and forgive ourselves and coach ourselves out of our unrealistic expectations like perfection with encouraging yourself that it’s ok to provide 80% as most people don’t give 100%. Caring about what other people think like the people pleasing tendencies can also stem from the reasons I describe. Love yourself and the journey of evolving! I honestly found everything you said so relatable with your struggles as I’ve been there and had all the same struggles and thoughts. Hope you continue on your healing journey! ❤

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you for sharing! And I'm glad this resonated. I'm sorry you went through such a burnout - I think you describe the process well. You are right about the childhood stuff. Thankfully I have a wonderful therapist I've been working with for a long time. The journey is a lifelong one but it's ever evolving! ❤️

[@i.smell.pretty9937]

Awwww girl you are soooo hard on yourself 😢 …..The reason I enjoyed you so much is because you are not like the rest just churning out content for content’s sake. You came across as an ordinary girl just having a go and sharing her passion. Always felt like I was sitting across the table with a girlfriend having a chat….so sorry you felt this way 😢

The time that YT takes from you, as a creator or even as a viewer, is a LOT. That’s what I noticed and I kind of forgot about myself and my health as well… and I wanted to take control of it again.. that’s the reason why I haven’t been posting as religiously as I did, and the reason why I decided to do a faceless format since 2021. It’s also a way to introduce other kinds of contenct, which I am starting to do now that I dabble a little bit on short format contents 😊

I can tell you that any time I see a video of yours in my feed I know I am going to feel good for all the time it lasts. I just feel like I vibe with you. And there’s no strong reason for that as I do not know you very well, but from your videos about perfumes 😅 And yeah people are free of thinking what they like, there’s little to nothing that can be done about that. Most times ignoring them is best, trying to make them change their minds is never a good idea imho. So trying to please them is not a good idea either, at least for me. Just accept that is the reality and part ways somehow. Lots of love and support ❤

I was just thinking about you yesterday and wondered if you were ok. I’ve dealt with many health issues in my life and you have to put your health and well being first. I learned that the hard way. I totally understand the reasoning to talk ❤️

[@CharlotteRossx]

It really does come first; I hope you are ok now. Thank you, Margo. ❣️

Yes! Thank you for that - we are all in this together. ❤️

[@ritaagafonova5270]

I don’t often listen to these type of videos, but I did to this one. I can really relate to not being able to post if something in life goes wrong or because of lack of confidence (that’s why I’m not YT creator heh). Also the screen addiction. Ugh.

[@CharlotteRossx]

I'm glad this resonated with you - we're not alone in our struggles. ❣️

Just thought about you yesterday - I always come back to your videos because I find you so engaging, soothing, intelligent, etc. - allow yourself to feel all the emotions on this journey! You’re awesome ❤❤

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you, it’s lovely of you to say that! ♥️

[@caseyreed988]

Oh my gosh I wholeheartedly listened to your story. The nuances and depth of your authenticity really struck a chord with me, essentially to the point of resonance. You couldn’t possibly imagine that on the other end of your screen how touched I was. Quite frankly this niche thing has been annoying me for a while now. I would appreciate hearing which book you’re reading currently, your thoughts.. etc.. random or not- like, why not?! Are we not all whole individuals? Share whatever you please, believe we all want to hold space with you in our own special way aka via social platforms.. haha Xoxo

Thank you so much for sharing Casey - that means a lot. ❤️

I’m seeing this on Oct 22nd. I really appreciate your honesty. I started following you about 3-4 months ago Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You can only go ⬆️ from this point, right?! You are speaking what many influencers probably want to say!

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you, I appreciate YOU! ❤️❤️

[@Bebs-di5no]

Dear Charlotte, first of all I’m happy you are feeling and looking better, I honestly appreciate your openness, I know you didn’t have to do this video but you did anyway and you may not know how many people this is going to help but just know this, you are welcome to post whatever you want to, it’s your channel and you should be free to talk about any topic you want and not be confined to one in particular. Anyways, I’m excited to see you and know you are doing well. I see a lot of me in you and after this video I now know why I kinda gravitate towards your videos. Please stay true to yourself and also know you are appreciated for being YOU ❤

Aww here's a much missed lovely face❣ (Edit to confirm: I got this one right! ;o) You seem to be like I thought you were, a Gem. And your thoughts on any topic, I'd be interested.) It can be hard to perform as a 'positive force' at times, since vulnerability often does make you a target...And very few of us are invincible...😹

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you 🥹♥️ and yes, so true what you said.

[@Titi-zl5jz]

I am excited toe see a video about healt , books, fitness! But when you post once a month, or even less, we can watch your video's that you already make, often when i can't sleep i only listen toe the video's. Luckily i never had Instagram doe nothing with Facebook only KZbin is my quilty pleasure 😅 toe relax en stop me from overthinking. Since i juse screen filter in mij glasses for computer work ,i read my books without glasses mostly when i am not too tired. But i only have a very low +0,5 .I am 48 over a few years i have toe take glasses with me always 😂 but not now i like to train my eyes sometimes and protect them from sunlight an screens. Greetings from the Netherlands 🥰

[@CharlotteRossx]

You are sweet; thank you. ☺️❣️ And yes, I could do without the other social medias too - KZbin is my choice for sure 😋 I do wonder whether I can "train" my eyes too. Thanks for sharing!

Charlotte it could be that your higher self want you to get closer to a higher power which is why you don't feel like getting involved in the hyper consumption culture. It might not be about being passionate about other subjects of life as they too can quickly burn you out. The only subject that's not going to burn you out is you being authentic(without the need to consume and get validation for what you choose to consume).

[@reiloveable]

or not*

I think that's a big part of it too, yes. Thanks for sharing your insight. ❤️

You know that saying “Do what you love every day for work and you won’t work a day in your life” or something along those lines….? Yeah - I don’t know about that. I love gardening and landscaping and the minute I started doing it as a way to make $ - took the wind out of the sails almost immediately

[@CharlotteRossx]

Totally! Yeah, I still haven't figured this out but I understand where you're coming from.

[@funwelldone]

I would just like to send you whatever an online hug would be called. Lets call it a "Cyber Hug". I really enjoy your fragrance videos, and I genuinely like your opinions and insights, but not at the expense of your psychological health. I think you answered yourself in this video if you go back and re-watch. Priority one, is your personal health, priority two, family, priority three, work/professional life, priority four, everything else. Just remember, it should be fun. Fragrance videos, makeup, lifestyle videos, are not worth minimizing any of the time that you spend on you, or your family. If you are absolutely determined to keep making fragrance videos, then wait longer between uploads, only talk about the fragrances that you are passionate about endorsing, and most importantly only make them when you have the time, and are in the frame of mind to do your best work. Again, I love what you do, but I care more for the person smelling the fragrances, than the fragrances themselves. The people, like me, will watch your videos whenever, for whatever, as often or as few as you want to share them. Thank you for being you!!!

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you so much for that. 🤗❤️

[@danashackleton3790]

OhhHhwwww i gotta say im a waitress and ive worked with owners who had thier partner or girlfriend work the floor.&it was a huge conflict of interest and problematic for everyone bc they always got the good tables. Anway alot was said in this video but i heard that the loudest bc im in the industry. You seem nice. I hope your fair. I love u and ur videos and will watch whatever u post. But i doubt the people u work with will ever tell you that. And so i speak for them..Pleae make sure ur being fair. Thanks!
