[@hikakorc143]

thank you for being vulnerable with us and sharing your year recap&reflection, Joy. I am so incredibly proud of you, hope 2024 will bring more joy, ease, and growth!

[@sarahtakesnotes]

I can not thank you enough for showing how vulnerbility can have such a connecting power between human beings. I cried for most of the video and i really needed that. I appreciate you so much, and i hope it will get better and better for you

[@phoebebeeee]

Your videos are ART, Joy! Thank you for sharing your heart and the meaning you make of it. It's so beautiful.🌟

[@sofieooms8990]

I literally cried watching this. Joy you keep on inspiring every single day, thank you for being so down to earth and real about not only your life and roses and thorns but just in general life and its roses and thorns.

[@lauren2103]

This is beautiful. It makes me think back on my roses and thorns from the past year. The thorns were so hard, but there was always the rose

[@PerksofBeingAvril]

I’m not crying, you are 🥹🥹

[@lilyzandd]

this video was so warm to watch

[@filipa8626]

I was gonna say the same

[@lena.takeii]

I love this series so much. truly so inspiring

[@Selome23]

the internet is such a wild place but you are one of the reasons why I also love it. Your reflections always sit deep with me. Thank your for your honesty. I always feel more connected to myself after your podcasts or videos like this one because you remind me of how we are all actually struggling throughout the year and our decions, how we can be happy in a new place but also miss home at the same time, how we want change but are also somehow scared of it at the same time, how following your gut feelings is the right way but can also be so frustrating at the same time because you wish your gut feeling would tell you something different (loved that last thought of you).

Ufff Joy your videos make me cry so much 🥹💕😂 such beautiful content!

[@C.A.Diaries]

i dont want to sound cheesy but i am sitting here crying. i just discovered your channel but you inspired me SO much already. your videos are art! the advice youre giving through your ups and downs that everyone has, is honestly the one thing i needed right now. i just wanted to say thank you for putting yourself out there even if its not easy sometimes. and i am very grateful for your thoughts in situations where listening to your gut is the one thing that brings you the right thing. thank you so much

[@carylannebeltran]

You did it again Joy! You created a beautiful vulnerable mini movie that is both relatable and inspiring! You're a true artist and i love following your beautiful energy and art. Happy 2024 hope it is a beautiful better year for all with lots of health,growth,happiness ans success🤍✨️

[@katrina639]

that’s the beautiful thing about intuition - it may not makes sense within the moment, it usually never does, but it always takes us where we need to be & works out in our favor. it’s something to do with our higher selves & the realm of things in the universe we don’t quite understand, for sure. i’m proud of you for especially following your intuition when it came to your relationship because i can personally relate to how difficult that is when they’re an amazing person & there is so much love. i did the opposite & continued the relationship that i felt in my gut wasn’t right which ended up causing over two years of pain & trauma. i’m learning to never ignore my gut & intuition ever again. sending you all the love!

[@NicoleP-n5d]

you are amazing. that’s all. ❤

Oh my god Joy! This video is a gem😭 pouring out and being this honest on social media where we’re being constantly watched and judged is so hard, but thanks for doing this. We need more people like you on these platforms. I can’t express how much I loved this🫶🏻 you’re a brilliant story teller. I often doubt if im in touch with myself, my thoughts and my growth. But seeing videos like these help me a lot to process things. Thanks again. So much love❤️
