Hi everyone! One more thought: the Germans say "the early bird gets the worm"... well, I have come to terms with the fact that I don't stand a chance. Stupid worm 😅

Hi Justine! Some say "The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese!"

[@YellowSums]

Hell yes, I can totally relate to that!

[@Mynervas]

Introverts don’t (necessarily) dislike being among people. :) It’s what gives you energy: introverts find social interactions draining, and need alone time to recharge. Extroverts need social interaction to recharge. Hope that’s clear. Not all Introverts are hermits, though they probably definitely exist.

[@hypatiakovalevskayasklodow9195]

Exactly, introverted =/= antisocial. Shy =/= introverted. Antisocial=/=shy. I hate that it gets equated.

[@aurorat7633]

See 13:47 for an example :p fellow introvert here 🥰🥰

[@janeolinger8038]

As an introvert, I need to process information, ideas, feelings, etc., for myself. I listen to others and am open to their feedback, but then need to look within.

[@starrya5647]

Great comment thread here

[@SoNick25]

I am an introvert when I am not an extrovert!!! ha ha

[@CMBauer]

“My happiness is not awake yet.” Lol. I felt this in my soul. I much prefer slow mornings instead of fast productivity ones. Mostly because I can’t.

[@hypatiakovalevskayasklodow9195]

Same. Just.. so relatable

[@adedow1333]

I'm right there with you. That was so perfectly phrased!

[@tara5742]

I was just going to quote this haha! Yes, we aren’t grumpy, our happiness isn’t awake yet 👍

[@stefs3460]

Same here, technically my cat overlord has me get up to give him food fairly early, after which I crawl back into bed then I get up for real , make coffee, sit and leisurely sip my coffee, and eventually get going after my happiness wakes up 😊

PLEASE speak just a few phrases in German. It will make my day. I find you SO pleasant and well rounded and healthy; your personality is one I would like to emulate.

[@CR092888]

Here are some assumptions I always had about you: 1. You truly value professionalism. You pride yourself on being highly professional, but you also expect it from other people. 2. You were emotionally and intellectually mature at a young age. I imagine that the teenage version of you was very similar to how you are now, and adults trusted you even in your adolescence. 3. You dislike being sedentary for too long, and maintaining physical fitness is an essential part of your life.

[@justineleconte]

All true 👀😅

[@professorr.5427]

"I don't feel that I have to be the smartest person in the room." This outlook should spread as widely as possible!

I really appreciate your honesty, passion and professionalism towards fashion and this planet we live on. Just wanna say thank you for all the wonderful content and wish you, your life, your loved ones and your business all the best!

[@SM-hn5le]

The point you made about fast food is so true! They never make me feel as satisfied as good wholesome foods.

[@chetnaparashar22]

I'm curious about German execution.. and French planning.. would like to hear about it in a little detail.. if possible.. It interests me how people operate in general.. and how unique values are made.. like personal value system.. Thanks for the video,it was fun❤️

[@OneOfTheFirstToWatchStarTrek]

Came here to say exactly that - especially -- edit: WHAT you have learned about project management, coming from the "other" side

[@surbhinanda2632]

Yes personal values, how to build them! How it differs amongst all cultures!

[@tracycameron5099]

Germans excel in organization and execution...faultless...in creativity the French win out

[@MJBpeace]

Yes, I'm also curious! I tend to get lost in details, however I believe they are important to understand the big picture. But many times, if I was to understand only the big picture, and not nesecerilly care about the details, I would have gotten things done, or understand them faster.

[@aishwaryaviswanathan4753]

I would loveee to watch a video en francais! I'm trying to learn to parler en francais. It would be interesting to see you speak your mother tongue, be fluent and not think too much about what you have to say. Love from India! ❤️

My favorite answer was about refolding clothing in a store- it’s nice and it’s polite, you said. True. It made me realize I would never walk into someone’s home and begin making a mess of their things. So I will remember this and try to treat the stores I visit as if they were the homes of friends. Thank you

Hi, Justine! Thank you for the informative content you share with us on your channel... It is truly a pleasure to watch and to learn from such an intelligent and inspiring professional in the field of fashion! This high quality of knowledge you offer and make accessible to all of your viewers is quite a rarity on KZbin... I've even quoted you several times in articles and projects I had to prepare for my classes at university in the scientific fields of Anthropology of Clothing (about fashion in Socialist Bulgaria in the 1960s compared to western fashion) and Political Economy in anthropology (about "Fast Fashion" and the mechanisms of exploitation of workers in the Third World by western brands and retailers). It was really nice to hear more about you as a person in everyday life. Take care and keep doing what you love! Greetings from Bulgaria!

[@gorejs8396]

Merci, Justine! Very generous of you to address some of these assumptions about you, even a few of the intrusive, too-personal ones. I assumed correctly about your approach to problem-solving, but that was easy because you're a true designer, & design is creative problem-solving. This is a bit off-topic, but one of my favorite things about your videos is your playful, impish sense of humor, which always comes through, to a greater or lesser degree, depending on the topic. Delightful!

[@jennifercopley1626]

You are genuine. For me that’s the highest compliment I can give and in this case it is true :) I think it is a huge part of why your videos are so enjoyable and why your message registers so strongly. Btw the introvert thing-you seem (obviously just from videos) to be a ‘confident introvert’. There’s a book called Quiet that talks about this and how uncomfortable it can be to be for example a ‘shy extrovert’.yeah. It’s a thing. It is such a good book I really r commend it.
