stepping outside the norm

[@jasonpoon_]

Thank you for watching! These have been incredibly fun and meaningful to make. I know we all got struggles. Things no one else may understand or see, but the future can still be bright!

[@Me.675]

You are amazing ❤

[@geos1312]

This kind of content needs to blow up ... with so much negative, narcissitic and fake content around, we clearly need more artists like you to flood the internet with positive and uplifting messages like this one. Hope you go to the stars my friend, you deserve it! Subscribed and waiting for the next one.

[@aichaaadiouf677]

I’ve been following your journey all the way from Senegal, and I just want to say how much I admire what you’re doing. It takes so much courage to break free from the expectations and norms that hold us back, and I can feel the strength and honesty in every word you share. Your willingness to embrace discomfort and follow your own path is truly inspiring. Keep going, you’re doing something amazing, and your work is touching more people than you know. Sending you lots of support from across the ocean! 🌍🌟

Still trying to forge my own path in my 30s. It's hard, but I'm trying

[@jasontalking]

wake up babe, new Jason Poon video just dropped

[@jasonpoon_]

ayyyeeee!!

[@Always-VAL]

I recently turned 30 years old. I was so immensely unhappy with my day to day and felt so unfulfilled in my career choice/lifestyle I took a leap of faith and left it all to pursue a lifelong passion. It hasn’t been easy so far. But I just stumbled across your channel, and, well.. Thank you for this content.

[@jhjjh-e6r]

That real whatever got a degree 3 yrs before fool. You ain’t better you just jizzed on what’s better

[@oliviabaugh715]

These videos mean so much. You came across my feed with that "late bloomer" video and I have never felt like the content was tailored like this before to the people around my age feeling lost and disappointed with how we did life. These year-long lulls make me feel like a rotting fish in stagnant water, waiting to go with the flow, but there is no movement. I know life is what I make it, but how do I even create the future I want? I think I'm gonna go listen to music and journal.

[@paulbooz]

I’m 33 and have spent most of my life frozen and struggling with cptsd and all that that brings. Been in therapy for years and am finding healing through creative hobbies and opening up about old pain and beliefs that have kept me stuck. I often doubt myself still but content like this is a reminder a lot of people need to keep going ❤️

[@teeheelol]

Being a Chinese-born Canadian and in the middle of changing career paths, I found that inspiring. Keep up the great work!

[@jasonpoon_]

The nuances of our circumstances whether cultural or personal will be present it own challenges, but it also makes our stories unique

[@katharineyung5183]

Always so talented at storytelling and pairing it with visuals and music that really emphasize your message. Thank you for sharing! It was also fun to see your clips you shot come together!

[@WestSideWally]

The vocal performance, the edits, the content!! THE TONE!!!!!!! Let’s keep this going JP!!

[@JieRai]

I'm glad I found your channel and this video! Looking forward to seeing more of your work 😁

[@Mike_Virata]

Another great video Jason! Im a little older, but I had a similar upbringing. Your content really resonates with me. Your filmmaking skills are awesome, you tell a great story wirh video. As a new creator, you are inspiring me. My comment on your last video increased the traffic on my channel, let's see if lightning can strike twice lol. Ill see you in the next video, Jason.

[@onark777]

Decided to walk my own path at 18. Turned down the easy road time after time. I'm 34 and living my dream; I'm scared everyday because I haven't fully embraced the unknown I walk through everyday. My biggest fear was ending up alone because of my choices and I've ended up with the best friends in the world as well as a closeness to myself that means everything.

[@jasonpoon_]

wow! the unknown is scary but within it we can also discovered so much unexpected beauty

[@starfushi5924]

That's cool man! Like before youtube and Facebook... I admire you Jason thank you for this video^^

[@Paladin_Maar]

This feels real and very relatable. I recently took the plunge to make a huge move to chase doing what I love (game art). I'm 30 now, I struggled for years trying to figure myself out, and I'm only here now because I started believing in myself and trusting in what I can do. It's taken me years to be able to start doing that. I don't know how things are going to work out here, but I'm going to do my damndest to make it work. Thank you for making a very down to earth video like this. I'm looking forward to what you make next! Your other vid resonated with me as well. :)

[@QueenFidl]

In my opinion I can feel how much thought you put in every video it's wonderful. Like an artwork. I really enjoyed watching it. It makes me think about myself and what I want to do with my life. I've an illness that makes it hard to move my body on long term but I want to try living a good life as much as possible. I want to trust myself that I'll be doing fine. thanks for your hard work.

[@shotgun-blazer649]

Beautifully written and directed! You had me with Moana LOL

liking and commenting to help boost for the algo

[@themiabanana]

Thank you. You're very comforting and relatable. Take your time, but pls create more videos ❤

[@dali722]

Cried so hard watching this... I am going through this very feeling as I type this.. it's so hard balancing practical life versus being fulfilled. I want to direct and be an actor, but i fear that at my age its no longe feasible.

[@sara.space94]

‏‪5:13‬‏ i agree with you, that's true

[@wempoweryou_LTSWN]

Awesome! Your talent is engaging❤

[@tnutss]

Keep up the good work! Good luck with all your endeavors. Let me know if you need anything to help with your projects

[@fishstixx9737]

That shot of you eating a bowl of noodles by the window was my favorite. Do you remember what noodle dish it was? Personally I've been thinking of trying to film more of my cooking or even making a cookbook and filling it with stories. Your videos really strike my heart. I had to pause several times and cry in between.

[@RYLTREE]

I love the old footage feels like a wild journey... the old channels still up?

[@jasonpoon_]

There's no old channel. KZbin didn't exist back then!

[@RYLTREE]

@@jasonpoon_ oh. Not sure if it’s this vid or one of the others but you say this is a new channel. I assumed you had older channels.

[@sara.space94]

‏‪8:10‬‏ Thank you Jason 😊

[@andreaaccola7489]

So sick Jason!

[@nickorange4881]

this was a lovely video.

[@kaobanhtao]

do you consider your videos the same level as movie or artistic work? because to me this video sounds like one. Don't stop doing this, in a moment I see you as a great director

[@blazenplays]

❤❤❤

[@alokasiablackmagic3444]

Im 33, I just quit my job to be an artist

[@alessandronicoletti83]

great channel :)

[@sara.space94]

Jason, I will subscribe to your channel, and I will continue to follow your videos even if you only update every few months once. My name is Sarah, nice to meet you.😊

[@Nenadimi]

Rooting for you dude, i know this comments means nothing but i wish it does somehow.

[@mathieuperreault-e4r]

I think expectations are the same for young white people as well, maybe less but still kind of the same. I always wanted to be part of video game production (3D artist), but I’ve hit so many social walls (family, friends, etc.) throughout the years, that after a few unsuccessful interviews, I gave up. I now realize that I should have stayed persistent. I now have multiple degrees, work in an office and I am so f bored.

[@destinyserrano2409]

I'm going to make a channel like this but way lower effort. This is way too much editing, I'm too lazy for that.

[@Zhiar_d]

🤍🤍🤍🤍

[@Vonster1231]

@jasonpoon_ not you making me cry. Thanks I think I really needed this. You got a new subscriber. Can’t wait for more videos ❤😊
