Reducing My Hours at Work (going part time?), My Skin Condition, Work Potluck & More!

[@kaoriini]

Honestly I'm glad you're still at an office job as it does make your content relatable to me (I speak for myself). And I'm also glad that you're able to arrange your new hours for your own mental health! I think that's such a good compromise.

[@RachelVinn]

Thanks!

[@red_rocksie]

I'm so excited for you! More people should be allowed to take 'part-time' work for their mental health, we all know deep down 8 hours a day of focus is too much! (well, I know it is for me anyway!) x

[@CarterSullivan]

I'm so excited for you!! Even having those extra 2 hours a day to focus on content creation is going to be such a game changer!!!! Ok maybe it's time for me to do the same HAHA

[@RachelVinn]

yessss i feel like i can breathe!! you totally should, it will change your life

[@Shireen-sp5vf]

I love watching your videos and you'll be forever relatable. I work from 8- 4.30 pm and yet I struggle with maintaining the work-life balance. You do YOU!! Love your content. ❤️

[@mariyam2699]

It's actually great that you reduced the work hours. It's going to be good for you and for us. Looking forward to more content from you. Do consider doing a vlogmas series if you can.

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you 🤩 I will be doing some type of VINNMAS

[@jessiefogelbach4640]

Totally relatable. Both of my parents own at least one business. I used to work for my dad. I currently work in retail management and I just recently reduced my hours there to start working for my mom and helping her grow her business/create my own. Your video came at the perfect time. Its encouraging to know I'm not alone in this unique "unrelatable" situation. 😊

[@abeuchert]

I’m so annoying 🤣 also, don’t weigh too much of your life decisions on your viewers. You will NEVER please everyone and the haters are always going to have something to say. You HAVE to do what’s best for you: protect your family unit and mental health at all costs! We love you ❤️🎉

[@RachelVinn]

thank youuuu, love you

[@keylygar31]

Working 8-3 is still relatable you are good. What ever is good for you and works for you. Your mental health is more important than what we think. Getting stuff done is relatable no matter what it is haha. We love you ☺️

[@RachelVinn]

thank you :)

[@kab2591]

Vinny running around is giving me life lol! And don’t every worry about not being relatable!! You’re authentically you! 💕

[@melindamoreno264]

Happy Monday Rachel! I am so happy for you to be growing as fast as you are, you are real with us and that’s all that matters! Hope you have an amazing week 💖

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you, you too💖

[@ElliMasonMusic]

I work 8 to 5 right now and I could never imagine trying to upload and edit youtube videos on top of it.

[@AREEYAWNA]

So happy to hear about the podcast! I love your thoughts and the way you speak. Especially how you have strong opinions on certain things but you always present yourself as kind. I definitely strive to be more like that. You and Anna definitely have a unique chemistry lol she comes off strong but not in a bad way. So proud of your improvement and growth! I’ve been watching for about 8 months or so back when you had 11 or 12k. ❤️❤️

[@GodlywoodGirl]

That is AMAZING news, Rachel! You made a great decision and I'm so excited to keep following the journey. Praying for both you and AJ. God bless you always :-)

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you so much!!

[@jodi-annbennett5831]

Rachel as a university student the talk about making time for yourself for your mental health really resonated with me because I have been going through this and it sometimes makes me feel guilty when I take a break but this is a really important step for your overall well being glad you are making this change. 😊

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you😊

[@ManMaethorHerenya]

Seriously, it's so awesome to be able to work part time and use the other time for your passion projects. I'm grateful I get to do that and super happy for you too Rachel! ❤️

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you so much! Such a blessing 💖🥰

[@ultaraviolett]

I think you made a great decision reducing your hours at work. You’re doing soo much & I think most Followers absolutely appreciate all your effort! Just stay healthy and happy 😊

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you🥰🥰

[@pensplanners6460]

You don't become addicted to allergy medications, and you can stop them cold turkey without weaning yourself out. But allergies don't disappear and if you stop, and the thing you're allergic to is still there, you'll have symptoms again.

[@RachelVinn]

u are speaking the truth

[@ameliarutter2424]

I can relate to you right now for sure. Got a bazillion things to go and work just gets to be too much sometimes. I'm glad you were able to get it dealt with :)

[@kanzul4256]

finishing off my day with this vlog and it's just the best way to unwind. your voice is so soothing, it instantly makes me feel rejuvenated. sending buckets of love ❤

[@RachelVinn]

So glad 💖

[@SheilaJoy]

hi rachel! happy you made the decision to drop back on hours. i can understand the stress of having a FT job while doing things on the side. in my previous job I worked full-time (8-4) and ran an online business which was exhausting. I quit that job for a new position with reduced hours (30 hrs/week) and I don't know if I can ever go back to working FT because it's been so helpful for my mental health & allowed me to focus on content creation & youtube so much more. FT work isn't for everyone, especially if you have talents in other things!

[@RachelVinn]

That’s amazing and I love hearing stories of others doing the same! Thank you for sharing 🥰

[@myers19761]

Definitely Happy for you and yes PLEASE don’t stop making videos

[@cassandrasaucedo4169]

I am excited for you and your new schedule! Any video that you post I truly enjoy watching bc you are so down to earth! 😊 Don’t worry about posting relatable content just post whatever you want to post. ☺️💖

[@sonia8959]

I'm also prone to cavities and i found theses tricks (on tiktok haha but that made sens to me): Try to wait 30 min after eating or drinking so you don't rub the acidity of your food on your teeth. after eating it's better to use mouth wash so you can deposit fluore without brushing food on your tooth. Brush as soon as you wake up and wait 30 minutes before eating. DONT rinse your mouth after brushing. also floss BEFORE brushing, that way you can deposit toothpaste in between your tooth.

[@RachelVinn]

amazing tips, thank you!

[@kimsanders7692]

Your such a hard, dedicated worker with work and KZbin, and your mental health comes first. But you always make me laugh out loud. Specially how Vinny acts, such a personality for a cat. Love it. I will be listening to your podcast. So exciting and I wish you the best at everything your doing. ❤️

[@KateRamsayy]

Congrats on reducing your hours, that is going to be so huge for KZbin and the podcast 😍

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you Kate 🥰😍

[@charviparekh1409]

You're just great at this inspiring other people specifically me... you are just too good at vlogging thing and u made it seem so effortless but really respect for your dedication and work.. so happy for you that you put your mental peace first as everyone should, that really inspires me to put myself first and prioritize other things accordingly... Love you and Vinny ❤❤🐈

[@evag6652]

we have the same shirt and christmas lofi obsession!! also excited to start listening to the pod!

[@tonisnell8206]

I started laughing while you were baking. Love your videos!

[@DemetriPanici]

With a growing channel, going part time could be great for the work life balance!

[@charviparekh1409]

And I also love the Christmas vibes you carrying throughout days I just love it❤❤💕😘🎊🎊

[@janellebalao9439]

Whatever decision you make in your life, your youtube fam/viewers will always be here to support you. Wish you all the best in life and congratulations on your podcast ♥️

[@RachelVinn]

thank you so much

[@PatriciaGonzalez-cr5np]

Ugh so happy for you & So excited for this podcast!

[@JennaHong]

Happy for you to get 2 more hours each day to do more things for you and breathe more ❤️ now u can run around like Vinny

[@lisalouiseuden8692]

I have to say this is one of the funniest videos I have watched of yours! Lots of love

[@RachelVinn]

Hahah thank you!

[@dikshaphale1199]

I am happy that you will be giving time to yourself and youtube. I love your content.

[@marielaaa7148]

Your facial expressions are hilarious @7:33 & 7:40 😂 I love your sense of humor & really your overall personality 💗

[@ervinsmoviecorner8748]

Rachel, I’m excited for Thanksgiving and Black Friday!🌸🌸❤️❤️😁😁

[@RachelVinn]

What are you looking to buy? 😎

[@ervinsmoviecorner8748]

Some clothes.

[@mehamittal7144]

I was planning to sleep on time today 😂 that's when I notice you uploaded a vlog and I missed it..bye bye sleep..hellow rachel

[@RachelVinn]

Haha oh no!

[@idenisseventura5054]

I was about to ask you how do you do it? A full time job, home, husband, cat, a KZbin channel, a life, you are wonder woman. Glad that you will be less stressful now. I watch your channel to get ideas on how to manage my day, you do a great job at that!

[@RachelVinn]

Aw thank you this means a lot 🥰

[@kaitlynh6770]

I’m going through your backlog and loving your vids! I just CRACKED UP at you licking that vanilla hahahah more Baking with Rachel!

[@RachelVinn]

Haha🤪

[@patrycja2744]

Working 7 hours a day is still relatable!! No worries we’re still here

[@RachelVinn]

thanks :)

[@abeuchert]

Omg. I stopped going to the dentist for like 4 years, 1 root canal later… I WILL NEVER MISS MY QUARTERLY CHECK-UP EVER AGAIN!!! And since I started flossing daily I never have cavities now 🎉

[@RachelVinn]

i need to go more consistently for sure!

[@tiffanyyoung661]

I think if you went more consistently you probably would not have as many cavities...same thing happened to me, because when you don't get the cavities filled they kind of spread and cause more

[@Annaarm85]

I listen the podcast this morning before work, was laughing to myself while driving, it made my day 💚you and Anna are so great together, such an amazing and honest relationship to have. It would be fun to listen your mum and all the stories when you all moved to USA. And how she keep up with all the changes in tradition and language. Can’t wait for more! All the best 🤞on your new journey ps.all my colleagues at work complemented on my hair clip which I’ve copied from you😂 ! 💚

[@RachelVinn]

Wow thanks for the kind words! I’ll be sure to share them with Anna 😍

[@carlyfisher3025]

Have you thought about trying to eliminate artificial fragrance in things like candles, household cleaners, shampoos, laundry detergent? I have gotten rid of a lot of artificial fragrance in my home and my allergies have gone down significantly!

[@RachelVinn]

No but that’s a great idea!

[@mondrilla7811]

This is such a cool video and awesome vibe!! 🤩☀️

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you so much!!

[@Camilamaguna]

Dang Rachel ….. look at you doing all this cooking 👏🏻 a complete chef (licks vanilla) 😂❤️👩🏽‍🍳

[@smileybelieber3644]

I love that you follow and talk about christian values and beliefs 🤍

[@RachelVinn]

thank you!

[@juliag2797]

I also got seborrheic dermatitis, it's basically because of stress, food and other external factors... (water quality, environment...). I really recommend you Ketozolin Shampoo 2%, it's the one that helped the most. I also recommend you giving up on sulfates, use gentle products for your scalp :) Hope this helps!

[@hughknowles6724]

9:38 Couple goals - motivating each other to go to the gym!

[@GwendolynKensinger]

Omg please please please share the hair whatever it’s called and treatments because I have that and I also pick and it’s terrible!

[@RachelVinn]

I def will!

[@roslynnblane6477]

In the UK 35 hours is still classed full time just a shorter full time hours contract 😊 keep doing what you are doing ❤️x

[@alishaxjoy]

Have you ever tried eating local unpasteurized honey? Someone I know had terrible allergies and started taking local unpasteurized honey & they went away. Something about the pollen being in the honey and your body building up a natural immunity.

[@RachelVinn]

This is a great idea!

[@LaughALittle4]

You should look into allergy shots 😊 my dad got them and his allergies completely went away a few years after getting them

[@marisacaron]

Try fluticasone spray (Flonase) for your allergies! It works really well. Also, I suggest Nizoral shampoo for sebbhoric dermatitis.

[@CorieMac]

I am so happy for you! I wish I had the opportunity to reduce my work hours so I could focus more on social media!

[@ferriellehachemi2778]

11:52 I love how you and AJ motivate each other to be active👍👍.. I really need a gym partner 😪 I loved the podcast

I have seborrheic dermatitis as well, like really bad. My hairline, forehead, nose and ears. I use prescribed ketoconozole shampoo and recently started using tea tree oil and its wonderful!

[@afrugallittlelife]

Try a waterpik if you can ☺️ my dentist recommended it since I’m so prone to cavities and my gums are ridiculously sensitive to bacteria, and no cavities for over a year so far 😄

[@RachelVinn]

oooo i will look into that!

[@caitlincassandra]

Still relatable! Your YouTubing is work so you are still working a full time job plus overtime really!

[@alienboogieman]

The queen who breathes a lot is always an inspiration to watch when you try to do new things for yourself but are afraid to. I'll check out that podcast because personal development through the tubes from our content creator helps the community associated with them become more close and someone to relate to. It's about being real and KZbinrs like this are so rare to find if you are someone who watches Logan Paul or ACE Family, channels that have more behind the curtains. Here, this makes KZbin better, seeing what other peoples worlds are like because KZbin for some people is like their diary, a place to escape the misery around the world. Also to never to be afraid of anything because everyone is going through something and what we can do is support, love yourself, love thy neighbor, love God❤. Never stop Rach, you're like our bestfreind we want out of this life whether for man or woman, we have more hope than people think for eachother, so keep up the great work, you will cry from tears of joy more often💎. (Hope AJ gets well soon, no more biteable loogies🤢.)

[@justagirluwu]

Girl i have the same problem with my skin around my hairline too! Mostly on the edges near my ear and in the front. Ive tried everything and it never goes away, just gets better and worse lol we are fkd

[@severussnape5217]

[@SelenaTrevino]

proud of you for making changes in your life that will help your mental health & overall wellbeing, content creation is hard, so you cutting back still means you're essentially working 2 jobs - you're killing it

[@RachelVinn]

LMAO I'm dying.. i can picture your videos having a different title each time and it would be crazy haha! "8:17 - 6:48 work day!!!" and thank you so much

[@smileybelieber3644]

Omg i love you, you’re amazing!!!

[@RachelVinn]

:))))))))

[@jamiealdridge6606]

Have you tried oil pulling solutions? I enjoy Living Libations oral pulling solution and Whole Foods has one too. Be mindful of using one particular toothpaste too!? Sounds like you’re doing all you can! You still have an amazing smile! 💖

[@FocusBreakForYou]

if you eat sugar and starchy carbs (bread potatoes, etc) - that turns to sugar in your blood and your blood feeds your teeth. so...cut out sugar and starchy carbs.TIPS: Brush with an ultra sonic toothbrush and never rinse toothpaste out of mouth. Use mouthwash BEFORE you brush.

Off topic, but wondering hows vinny is he still throwing up? And what food is he eating now? Looking forward to next epi of podcast, Anna was great and shes very relatable as well!!! 😍

[@RachelVinn]

Ever since we stopped feeding her fancy feast she has not thrown up 😍

[@Justme_elizabeth]

Have you tried honey from a local hive? They obtain the pollen from the flowers in your area which us why it’s supposed to help 🐝 also unrelatable?? You work more than SOOO many people with KZbin and your job you basically are way above full time 🤣

[@RachelVinn]

no never thought of that!

I'm afraid that once you got diagnosed with allegry you cant wean off the medication prescribed. Not cured allergy leads to asthma where your airways narrow and swell. During for example covid people who suffered with asthma were subjected to serious medical complications. Its better not let that condition develop.

[@karenblaney9557]

Your moms a dermatologist, what would cause your skin to peel, seporatic never heard of it. I’d say all diet related though. Odd...

[@shelleylawrence8397]

Having your teeth cleaned every 6 months by the dentist helps get the plaque off and helps avoid cavities. 🙂 Did you decide not to work part time for your mom, or did I miss something?

[@RachelVinn]

no I will still work for her when her practice opens in a few weeks, but even if her practice wasn't in the picture, I still would have made this decision, hope that makes sense! :)

[@shelleylawrence8397]

@@RachelVinn Totally. I was just wondering how you’d fit that in also. I don’t think you have to feel bad about what you’re doing anyway. It’s not that much of a change and it’s all work one way or another.
