I hope you never feel the pressure to be someone else other than yourself on your videos. Your positivity and genuineness makes your videos so appealing. Thank you for being you!

[@loriguercio4374]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@makariespe]

Awe thank you so much Angie. I really appreciate it ❤

[@thepixelsesh]

One of those creators you watch while they’re starting and think, “Yeah they clearly know what they’re doing. They’ll blow up soon.” Congrats !! 🎉🎉

[@makariespe]

Well jeez, thank you :')

[@SamFigueroa]

Fully agree. I've stated this on other video's comment section, but I re-watch these a bunch to learn what's happening. I'm just mesmerized by how engaged I am watching and want to get insight. And well, we all know they are super entertaining.

[@wendyrampersad7103]

I said it a while back and I'll say it again. So long as she stays herself, Makari could make anything and I'd be glued to my screen. I'm here for you lady. You are amazing and so positively wonderful. I wish I had friends like her to be honest.

[@makariespe]

Thanks for being here Wendy, I appreciate you :)

[@this.is.mallory]

I am THE MOST PROUD FRIEND!

[@makariespe]

😂 Thank youuuuuuu ❤❤

[@sheskis613]

The vibes are immaculate, who wouldn't want to find this feel-good spot on the internet?

[@makariespe]

Too kind, thank you ❤

[@GavinKohAquascaping]

And just like that, a month later, you're at 153K. That is seriously impressive and bloody good job! I'm looking forward to when I get the make this very same video too!

[@jodieannehews]

every human trying anything new is theoretically “a fool” to start. Doesn’t mean they shouldn’t do it!! You’re empowering the people who are afraid to try, by doing it anyways. There will always be “experts” who want to tell you everything you’re doing wrong to make themselves feel good about themselves. Or maybe they just even want to help! But you sharing these journeys is perfect for all the people in the world who don’t know where or how to start! Soo BE THE FOOL! I’ll end my statement with some piece of wisdom I heard once and am probably misquoting: a person who tries something new is a fool once. And person who doesn’t try is a fool forever. Lots of love! Just discovered your channel and it’s AMAZING!

[@makariespe]

awe jeez thank you so much for this Jodie. I appreciate you :')

[@yosoypatrick]

The coda at the end of your road trip with your dad where he talks about that experience being one of greatest things he's done with you is easily one of my favourite things I've seen this year.

[@neuropcs5879]

If I was only allowed to subscribe to 1 channel, it would be yours. You're genuinely my favourite KZbin on here, and I've been watching for more than 15 years!! Keep making amazing content Makari and a massive congratulations on 100K!!!

[@UnknownUnknown-bvnd]

YES 100K! Been here for what feels like forever, but there is so much more to come. Good job, and thank you, Makari. You make our days brighter everyday.

[@makariespe]

Thank you so much!! And thank you for sticking around so long ❤

[@xkz92]

I love every video with you and your dad, you make such a good duo. I'm glad that even at 100k you still look like you're enjoying it and are using YT as a medium of expression (or an excuse to get out of your comfort zone with some wild backpacking trip!) rather than a checklist like many creators who fall into their routine :)

[@makariespe]

[@brianmcmanus57]

Your ability to continuously smile is amazing, really enjoy your content.

[@avalonfey]

You are going to keep growing brighter and brighter because you are a personified ray of sunshine. Not in a toxic positivity way but in the warm, comforting and brighten up a day way. I adore the videos you make with your dad, they're sweet and nice while still feeling so real and genuine. I hope you don't stop exploring fun new places and things to share

[@makariespe]

well this is the nicest comment ever. Thank you for your kind words :')

I subscribed about a year ago & watching this made me tear up a bit, so proud of you & I love what you do! Thank you for sharing your life with the world

[@loribeale978]

Congratulations, Makari! Love your videos- they’re funny, informative and inspiring. 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️

[@RottenlyMoodyChild]

Huge congratulations, Makari! Well done! Was really wholesome and sweet seeing your loved ones (parents and Jackson) reactions to you reaching the 100k 😊 I feel like the the mix and balance of authentically candid vs scripted is what stands out a lot to me. It always comes across as really genuine, endearing and fun, yet still thoughtful and "polished". I'm sure many more 100s of thousands will follow 😊

[@RottenlyMoodyChild]

Yes! Authentic and effort! 100% shows 😊

[@makariespe]

Thank you so much for this comment, I really appreciate it :')

[@Joseph-vv6nf]

I've been watching your videos for the past 8 months and its great to see how far you've come. Your positivity and genuineness is great! It's also great to see someone so local to me! Spotted you once walking across the Johnson street bridge a couple months ago while I was on my bike but couldn't stop to say hi as i had to be somewhere.

[@makariespe]

Hey thanks for sticking around for so long Joseph! And yes I remember you commenting that before! 😆 Unless that was another person lol

[@NinaMandelli]

You are so funny! I am a cyclist and I started watching this channel before you bought the bike, and I can assure you that you are on the right track!! Congratulations on the thousand subscribers!I wish you success! Kisses from Brazil!!! Você é dez, tenha muito sucesso com o seu canal!

[@makariespe]

muito obrigado! 😆

[@marianapaiva9]

@@makariespejust started watching your videos today through a youtube recommendation to the “cardio everyday” one, and I am hooked. Congrats, they are really good. Keep being yourself and putting the effort. You inspired me to do the same. I’ve had this project on the paper for some time now. If it gets out of it, I’ll let you know. Thanks! Hugs from Brazil!

Congrats Makari! I really do enjoy your videos, you seem so genuine in your journey of learning and it's very refreshing to watch!

[@ilovemelslasagne]

Makari drops an F Bomb, like seeing my Mum swear or something :D congrats on the 100K. I discovered you when the algorithm decided you were a good match for all the cycling videos. So glad it did.

[@yhalsall2641]

Hi Makari, I wanted to let you know I have really been enjoying your videos. The first one popped onto my feed was the road trip with your Dad. As a daughter who lost her Dad too soon this one touched a special place in my heart. It is something I would have loved to do with my Dad. Well, your humour and personality connected with me and I checked out your channel out. I think you are doing something wonderful and want to encourage you to keep going. I felt a bit of inspiration with the declutter videos as well. Oh btw well done on writing a childrens book!!

[@krsexton]

Just found your channel today through your very sweet video of you and your dad traveling without phones. Happy to find you! Congrats on your success it is admirable and inspiring ❤

you deserve it, im watching your videos for months now and the quality was always good. keep going!

[@Andromeda14100]

You're not a fool at all! You are *so* brave and resiliant!! I so admire your humility and self-deprecating sense of humor, while also being so persistant and being honest about your limits or changed perspectives. Your 30-day videos are so inspiring to me and are so entertaining - please don't get too deep in your head about that, because that is not at all how you come across (and it's not the takeaway of those videos anyway!).

[@waziotter]

Thoroughly well deserved. I really look forward to your videos - you're one of about 6 or 7 creators who I watch immediately when something new comes out.

[@makariespe]

[@heleenboelen4725]

Hey Makari, I started watching your videos a few months ago. And since then I’ve always watched them during the nightly feeding our comforting of my baby. It’s really comforting to me while he sleeps in my arm and I’ve got something to watch until he sleeps deep enough to put away. Thank you for being authentic and making really nice videos! You are awesome!

Girl, you are living the dream and I'm am so excited for you! Your channel growth is what us lil creators are dreaming of right now, and I love that you've had so much cexpansion in just a year. You actually inspired me to up my video game in terms of better outlines and being more to the point and with having 80 million camera angles(seriously, love the dedication). I stumbled across your channel when you were at around 2300 subscribers and I remember thinking, "dang her channel is fantastic and I love her personality. She's going to keep growing for sure."

Just keep up the good work, really love the channel. Just you trying to overcome something is fun to watch. The way you tell the story is just great. Also the social anxiety is always relatable, being in public and doing strange things is always weird. Great how you do overcome it in most scenarios. That touch of reality makes it that more honest and just jou. Much love subscriber 45867.
