I used to work at Children's of Alabama and you definitely remind me of all of the child life specialist there but I completely understand the need to change! I worked my butt off to become a nurse but now I am a flight attendant because nursing was DRAINING my mental health! Im praying that you continue to do whatever you feel is right for you!

Hey Lauren! I'm a graduate student that's been watching your channel for a while. Your optimism, and bubbly nature always motivates me (and I love that our favorite color is pink). In life things change but that's the sign of things to come. You made your choice, and it is valid. Changes are always good, and it just means you're getting on course to where you need to be. Wishing you the best ! 🥰💞💞✨✨✨

Girl don’t be embarrassed about changing your major! I changed mine back and forth several times and I even took a 5 year break from college. Stumbling upon your channel last summer (it was your moving into the Pi Phi house video) helped inspire me to go back to school! It made me less self conscious to go back at the age of 25, since you yourself didn’t start right after high school. Keep on following your passion and don’t focus on the major! Seeing your content makes my day brighter😊

Lauren I totally feel you! My major was psych and family development, with the intention of going into child life. I did a practicum, applied to FIFTEEN practicums and only heard back from two which one was the one I got. Took certs and classes online to help me with pre reqs. I ended up dropping the idea of becoming a CCLS, because it’s FAR too competitive for not the best pay. It’s now been 7 years or so since I dropped the idea and I’m working in the hospital as a psych counselor (working with kiddos who have mental illness/suicidal) and love it. But so much of what you said during this video I FEEL you….. exact same reason I dropped it too. Just know things will work out :)

I understand that feeling of almost being embarrassed to change majors or change your mind after originally thinking you’re so sure you want to do it and talking about it. I know everybody’s telling you it’s totally normal, and it is - but also know that you approached this decision very logically - you have very very good reasons, it’s not like you just woke up one day and you were like ::flip your hair:: I think I just wanna do something else instead for no reason. You have approached this very rationally and logically and to me it shows how good of a head you have on your shoulders and you’re very smart about this so I wish you all the best and you’re gonna go far girl💖

Omg! I had no idea that so much went into being a child life specialist. The one that worked with us at our hospital was so so sweet and amazing with our son and I’m so grateful. It makes me upset that people don’t take that seriously. Also the internship process and all that sounds SO SO STRESSFUL. NOPE. I don’t blame you for switching. I too changed my major ( from psych to mass comm) and I don’t regret it. I’m so proud of you for changing and so proud of you for being so open and honest with us. Love you.

I loved hearing your story and I really relate to the decline of physical/mental health from school. I was in a grad program for athletic training, and realized it was not worth the struggle anymore when I started questioning if it was even what I wanted to do anymore. I quit, moved back to the city that I love, and now I'm going to be starting work as a personal trainer instead. I wish you luck in your new major/minor. I know how hard it is to quit something that you put so much work into.

Lauren, I'm your age, a 6th year in undergrad and I changed my major! Thank you for posting about this! It's okay and I always find it hard to remember that I am on my own timeline and it may be different from everyone else's. I am different for graduating later at an older age and that is okay! It's so so hard to remember when everyone graduates early/on time and seemingly has the perfect college experience.

There's a reason you were meant to change your major!! Love your videos girl, keep them coming!

I struggled with my mental health so badly in my second year of uni and I was in this sort of spiral where I knew I needed a degree to be teacher, which is my dream, but I also knew I was falling apart trying to get it. Making a change that you know needs to be made can be so hard, especially when you've put in so much work already. I think it's so amazing that you changed your major and I really hope things get better 💖💖

GIRL I'm in graduate school right now and I feel everything you just said! My current program requires both Practicum and Internship, which are both unpaid and I had to find my site myself. Which isn't bad but also doesn't set you up for success. thankfully I found a site, but so many people didn't. and once I was in it, there was so much work that I burned myself out within the first two weeks of the semester. I decided to change my program with one year left in graduate school and I am sooooo happy. Change can be weird but it is never too late to change your mind. Thank you for sharing!!

10 years ago, my cousin was a child life specialist at one of the best childrens hospitals in the country for a few years post-grad. Although she had a psychology major/child life concentration (switched to that from literally musical theatre), she no longer works there and I have so many friends who are in it and their majors are not related to the field. So even if you wanted to do that one day you could; the door isn’t closed forever because of this one experience at UA. We live in a world where your major honestly matters maybe 50% of what it used to- the broader the major, the more you can do. Creative media minor is perfect for you, and the right job will fall into place ❤️

Don't feel bad or nervous about telling people that you're changing your major darling. It's your life and it sounds like a very thought out and logical decision. and if you choose to continue with KZbin and do this full time, well I definitely won't be complaining haha I love your videos! coffee, couch and Lauren 😄. I think you want a job that helps people and makes a difference in this world and I think that that is so admirable. Just so you know, your videos do that, you reach people all over the world and make us smile and laugh. You make me want to get up, get out of my PJs and put some makeup on and go out and be in the world. You're a good person and I hope that you follow your heart in what ever direction it takes you. 💖💖💖

I had a similar situation to you. I had to change my major from Middle Grades Education to English for my bachelors. Ended up getting my masters in education right after I graduated.

I love that you mentioned not wanting to take someone’s spot that’s life mission is to be in that career. So self-less. What’s interesting is the risk of going through with the major, unpaid internship, and student tuition is a huge risk and so is starting a KZbin channel but you love KZbin and content creation which is why you took that risk and look where you are now. Lesson is always take risks but for what you are passionate about. I think this is the right move and also you would go to a car wash with pink soap lol

When so was in college, I wanted to become a child play therapist. I had to have a psychology BA. I was in my third year and they told me the same thing about the limited availability of spaces for the next step. I ran to my advisor after class and said I needed to find something else. She pointed me to education. I ran to the education department and they told me they couldn’t talk to me until I changed my major. My psychology advisor and I awkwardly changed my major and she signed me up for classes. Now I teach English and am doing my MA in Education with a focus in Bibliotherapy in schools. Stressful but worth it.

I was in the same boat. I started college as a Biology and Anthropology double major. Unfortunately, the college only had so many open spots for each course even through most of the school was STEM majors. I found it mentally draining to have to wait months to see if I was able to get a spot in the course. Along the way, I found that I wanted to focus more on Anthropology and Healthcare. So after 6 years of undergraduate courses, I switched to being an Anthropology and Health double major. This allowed me to go to graduate school to receive my Master in Public Health (MPH) degree. In the beginning, it feels like the world is ending because we have spent so much time and energy working towards a certain degree. It's okay to feel scared or uncertain on how our futures are going to look. I don't regret my decisions and I am more confident now than I was before my major change on how successful I will be in the future during medical school.

I did the exact same thing Lauren. I went through the the same stuff. Except I actually went as far as completing the practicum before I figured it out. You are a step ahead and be glad you didn’t go any further. Also, same girl. The whole internship process for Child Life is insane. I was like this is NOT it. My mental health was declining. Also, not to mention IF you are lucky enough to even land an internship you will 100% be relocating which is $ because it most like will be a random city where you don’t have family/ friends. Also I remember having to do Hospital visits for child life. They are usually called child life 101. Basically you learn everything you need to know about the internship process and meet with the child life specialist. Needless to say I left their feeling even more defeated knowing my odds

Hey Lauren! I love this video! I recently struggled with my own mental health and family issues/marital issues while in nursing school. I found myself not being as passionate about nursing as I was in the beginning. I took a step away from nursing school because I knew it wasn’t fair to myself, my instructors, classmates or others who were dying to be nurses. I was confused on what to do but I feel so at peace with everything. Not really sure what I want to change my major to but I’ve always loved education and children. But thank you for the encouragement of knowing that change is okay!

Then last semester (my sophomore year of college) I was told that I need to do like 5 more years of school after I graduate college to even become a psychologist when that’s not what they told me before. It’s so frustrating!! I’m so sorry you went through all of that. I’m so happy you put yourself first and found yourself.

Don't be embarrassed. I have an Associate of Arts degree that I changed from Graphic Design to a Liberal Arts degree with it. Then when I was grandfathered into my University of choice I was a Junior/Senior level and I thought I wanted to get my Bachelor of Arts degree in Video Production, but that didn't work out and I didn't like it as much as I thought. So I changed it to History and I was much happier since it's a subject I actually loved to learn about and I could get just about any job with that honestly. College is the time for you to change things and try things out because you really don't know if you will LOVE something from those summaries they give you in the catalogs of what the majors are until you try it and realize it wasn't what you wanted or thought it would be. :) I hope you enjoy your new major and you enjoy learning new things in your minor! You're doing just fine girl, keep at it and you can always take away from this that you gained more knowledge and that's NEVER a bad thing!

i see what you mean about "growing out" of your sorority. i mean it could just be you since you are older than an average college student (which is not a bad thing) and since you are busy with pagents, traveling, and other things, it's not a major priority in your life anymore. I feel like thats a thing for a lot of upperclassmen in sororities since they end up getting too busy with internships, work, and other things. i'm in a non-panhellenic soroity and even though i'm a junior and joined this past august, i still understand your feeling of feeling like you're growing out of it. i also feel you about changing your major. i have no direction at all about what i want to do and right now i'm just sticking with history education because i like history and i want to be someone positive and supportive for adolescent aged kids (middle-high school kids) however, i am pretty unsure if i actually want to teach, but i'm like too far in too change my major without being in college for like 6+ years total. so i'm just sticking with it and hoping i acutally like it when i start student teaching

Good for you for pivoting! The most important thing is pursuing what you love and are good at! You really don't need college. Unless you are a doctor or engineer or something, college is showing you can jump through hoops, pay a lot of money and have a "degree" at the end to prove it. The cost is ridiculous and this whole unpaid internship requirement is BS. We never had that requirement when I was in college back in the day. I've heard of a lot of college kids working for free.

Hi Lauren ! I'm so sad that you went through all of that work to finally be stuck at the end of your junior year. But God knows what He's doing girl 🥰 none of the minutes you spent at the university and the hospital are wasted. And what's coming must be marvelous, you know why ? Because it's God's plan for you. You go girl ! You were, are and will be showered with blessings ❤️

Child life is SO hard. I changed mine to child dev and now I work at a mental health place and I love it. No one truly understands how difficult child life is until youre really in it and understand everything to do.

w/human dev you can work at mental health places, non profits, housing places-like domestic shelters,etc. but with my job I work with kids that have mental health problems-anxiety, depression, defiant disorder, adhd and I go visit them at school and call their parents. Its a great job and I love my kids

I've never heard of required placement or internship hours which count for credit but aren't arranged by the university. What on earth 😳 In teaching they have partner schools. Nursing and medicine too, the 4 hospitals in the region take an allocation of students in collaboration with the University. They shouldn't be putting requirements in which they cannot guarantee they can provide 😕

It's totally normal to change majors. I was a Business major, Human Services, Law, Student Affairs in Higher Ed, Ministry, and NOW am wanting my MS in Genetics Counseling so I totally get it!! I'm so indecisive.

Lauren, I thought I was going to be a nurse .. however a blessing came out of nursing school .. my husband! I dropped out of nursing and I became a social worker!! So it is okay to drop your major! I love you and fully support your decision! You do what you want to do!

I'm also a HDFS Major w/a Child Life Concentration at Bam (online) and I'm planning on changing it as well, most likely dropping the concentration due to the absolute *INSANITY* that the practicum and the internships are. I love the idea of being a CCLS and helping kiddos, but right now it's not in the cards at all for all that unneeded stress.

With my friends I’ve seen that sororities become more of a job than a social outlet after freshman year. They don’t always respect that you have other commitments like a job and that your sorority can’t be priority one.
