burnout.

[@robynwalter]

Burnout is such a real thing that is glamorized by our society. I find everyone is always trying to work harder and longer, and feeling burnout is almost seen as a badge of honour or proof that you’re “succeeding” in life (I know I’m guilty of that). I think it’s normal for everyone to experience it at some point, but it shouldn’t be something we strive to achieve and are proud of when it happens. I’m really glad you’ve made this video talking about your burnout and how you plan to take care of yourself moving forward. In regards to your type of content, I feel like my interest is 100% more about getting to know you and your personality. I watch your videos to hear your thoughts and opinions rather than to watch a makeup tutorial or hear an old myth (even though those were very entertaining). It’s like having a friend around and I feel like there is so much value in that. I’m looking forward to seeing how your channel evolves going forward and I hope you’re able to take care of yourself, because at the end of the day none of this matters if we’re constantly exhausted and unhappy.

Thank you Robyn! That means a lot to me!! And I definitely agree-- hustle culture is gross lol

Yes exactly me rn, in a hermit mode were i havent been able to get anything done for like 3 months ! :( rest is necessary but it makes me so upset at myself why i cant do it. Because responsibilities dont go. I feel a lot of ppl have felt this especially after the pandemic. I hope you find motivation. 😔

Hey 👋 Just wanted to say that I'm glad you're really taking the time to self reflect and evaluate what fulfills you in life. As a fellow creative, I totally feel the burnout thing and I remember a point a few years ago when I was at a retail job where I was legit depressed and didn't know what to do or how to move forward. Sad that there won't be anymore make up and mythology but I can't wait to see your new content! Always a fan 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

[@LianaChau]

Hi John! Thanks so much! I know you really liked the series so it means a lot to me that you're staying!! :') I'm really grateful you could relate. Wishing you and I both the fulfillment that we deserve ❤

I actually never leave comments on KZbin videos beacuse I don't feel like what I have to say would be important enough to be noticed, but hearing you talk about how you felt the same way(in a different context) has made me view myself in a very different light. I've been experiencing what you're going through and this really has motivated me to change my outlook about life. I just came across your KZbin channel through a nail tutorial you did, but after this video, I have immediately subscribed! I wish so so much happiness and success for you hope the fact that you've gained a little-big fan makes you smile 💕

I loved this video, you perfectly summed up what was in my own head which I could not put into words. It's nice to feel seen and not alone in your feelings and interactions with the world.☺️ Love from Jamemica...p.s I love this new direction

[@LianaChau]

Ahh I'm so glad! We are definitely not alone ❤ Thank you so much-- I'm definitely excited for it!

[@gloriagrace9978]

You deserve more followers! you put so so much effort in your videos

[@sierrahollis6757]

your videos are always so high quality, I love your channel so much!

[@LianaChau]

Ahhh thank you Sierra!!! ❤❤

[@Christine-tz2dh]

sorry to hear you've been having a tough time! I hope you've gotten some rest and do things at your own pace. whatever changes you make to your channel are your choice and I'm sure everyone will enjoy the content. your health and happiness come first!

[@LianaChau]

Thank you so much Christine!! Grateful for you!

[@dceasley]

I understand how you feel. I have been experiencing burnout as well. As much as I loved your makeup and mythology series, I understand that the research required for those videos can be intense and even draining. You even put more research into those than most other KZbinrs do which was really impressive. You shouldn’t have to do things that are no longer fun for you. I wish you the best and hope you will soon feel energized and above all happier 💕

[@LianaChau]

Thank you so much, this means a lot to me! I feel so seen and appreciated. Wishing the same for you too! ❤❤

[@medea__witchhh]

aaaaa so glad that you're back! sorry you've been having a burnt out phase. hopefully it's gotten easier. looking forward to the new direction you're taking your channel or the lianasaance lol

[@LianaChau]

Thanks so much Medea!! ❤ I'm so excited :)

[@davidjames1389]

So great to hear from you again! I was worried you might have given up on KZbin altogether. It's always a bummer when that excitement over a new job wears off and it starts to feel like drudgery. But for me having a hobby of some kind waiting at home really helps get me through the day (and lots of online shopping doesn't hurt either. Lol). And yeah it's easy to see why your more personal videos do better, so can't wait to see more of those!

[@LianaChau]

Thank you David!! 🥰 I really appreciate that!

[@shanicefelix5674]

Burnout is so real, thanks for sharing your experience ❤

You're a sweet young lady, just remember the young part you have plenty of time to do whatever you want and you have a qualification. You don't need to rush.

[@camillapetazzoni7205]

Hey! I was so happy to hear your voice again. I hope this new direction makes you happy (or at least happier) and I want you to know that we really appreciate the time and energy you're giving us. Keep it going!
