I remember when Michelle was on her break Tati's launch party was the only beauty community event that she attended. Tati has always regarded Michelle as her biggest KZbin inspiration.

[@Mik6ne]

and now we know why

[@jimb0brite]

"Haters...You can't outdark my darkness." I love that. Also, "You honor your free will by finally writing your own story (or narrative)"

[@LetsBHonest]

I think in some ways her haters did darken her a tad. Everytime she got real constructive criticism from her viewers and got called out for certain things, she never owned up to the facts and then from then on she controlled her comment section hard. But you'd know this if you were a true fan from the beginning of her KZbin career and been there through all the years. I'm just saying, she created some of that darkness herself and sometimes humans need to own up to it and take partial blame.

I hope Tati beauty comes back and you release a “Holy Smokes” palette that I can buy for her. I am a 40 year old straight male who has been watching Tati for years- I always assumed she grew up wealthy and born with a silver spoon.

Wow. This message is powerful.❤

[@A7exandria]

I’m 7 minutes in. Usually hearing someone talk about how rough their 20s were doesn’t inspire me much. But I damn near cried hearing Tati talk about how rough life was for her. At 15/16 yrs old, as a pill addict, I didn’t see myself making it to 18. Was involuntary admitted to the psych ward at 15. Moved away from home at 17. Then 18 came & went. At 18, I didn’t see myself making it to 21. Age 19 started 3 yrs of alcoholism. 21 came & went. From 19-22, people who caught on that I was a high-functioning alcoholic warned me I was gonna k*ll myself or someone else. At 22, I got pregnant with my one & only. The day I found out, I decided it all had to stop. Against my OBs better wishes, I stopped drinking, instead of weening myself. Pills, aside from what was necessary, stopped. Smoking weed & whatever was given to me stopped. I took 3 wks to ween myself of smoking cigs, as to not send my body into complete & total shock. At 23, I gave birth. Postpartum was rough, mentally. At 28, I decided it was time for college. My son doesn’t deserve a life barely living paycheck to paycheck. In June of this year, a month before my 29th bday, I moved us over 1300 miles to start over & I’m currently in my 4th term of college. Overall mentally, I’m doing much better. Some days are rough. But, I keep telling myself it HAS to get easier eventually.

[@LucianLivingstone]

Tati truly is the definition of picking yourself up and brushing it off. Her story really is quite inspiring, yes she started off struggling, but she really kept picking herself up to get where she is now. As someone who struggles with major depressive disorder, it's really motivating hearing someone else who struggled and got through it. It just demonstrates to me that we really can overcome our challenges. She shared and became, in a way a voice for us who struggle with mental illnesses, addictions, and such. Overcoming such things is definitely no easy feature. She's such a strong and wise person. ♡

The acceptance of what you actually have control over & what you don't is much more peaceful!

I think a lot of people can relate to what Tati said about her dark moment. Same crisis here, not overpartying nor overdosing, but isolating and falling in depression; same reasons, losing a job I believed in, a boyfriend who cheated on me. Thinking in my thirties I was too old for change the trajectory of my life, but in the darkest moment I find somewhere in me the courage to do what I always want and always thought was a dream, challenging myself with my last money and strength, leaving for the country I always dreamed of. Now looking back I’m impressed with myself for what I accomplished and how I change my life. Not everyone has the fortune I had, the understanding and the support of my family, the fortune of finding a good job, the amazing people who help me navigate a new place, and an incredible man I could even dreamed about. I’m glad I found and nourished that spark, because I know that it would have taken very little to make me stay in that dark place not facing an unknown path. And I think Tati speaking of this can really help a lot of young people to find that strength.❤

This is so powerful; to see someone like Tati who I'm sure has felt the need to constantly look and feel perfect and "put together" tell their story. I have a similar one. Today I'm 36 and in recovery as well, but before that I was the perfectionist with the perfect life and job who drank pints of vodka in secret and no one knew, not even my husband. I now have 3 years, but I was in my addiction for a good 10 years, and tried and relapsed for a good 6 years while cycling through rehabs and outpatient care and therapy and medication before I finally got sober. And I'm still dealing with PTSD and depression every single day. But I'm both lucky and grateful to be here today, and it's through telling our stories that we help ourselves and others.

So the fact this comes and Tati shares the 2 dark times in her life is very inspiring. I'm always amazed how God will give people everything but then the devil will seemingly take it all away. I lean on God too though lately I've been angry at him not just for myself but on behalf of oppressed peoples around the world suffering while the world stands by and watches 😢.

Oh my gosh I’m tearing up , Tati THANK YOU FOR SHARING !!!!! This is powerful 😢

[@niky9226]

Being isolated over long periods of time while working on my spirituality is also what saved me over time, over the past couple decades. 💯 Relate to it all including past addiction, depression, grief, rebuilding from scratch, etc ❤

A Tati/ Michelle meet up is what the world needs right now.

Thank you for sharing Tati and Michelle. Tati, I was watching Emily D baker read through your court case and I am glad you won. That was crazy.

[@Sweetpea064]

Me too. I am glad that KZbinr hasn’t been mentioned in the comments. She doesn’t deserve the y. Tati has class and I appreciate her honesty .❤

Michelle you’re a great interviewer - you listen and don’t interrupt.

[@dockaren76]

Thanks for spilling the Tea and letting Tati tell her story! I love her so much. And love that she’s exploring non-duality. I think it is becoming more mainstream and I’m living for it!

Two iconic women I grew up watching and continue to watch and support.💕 Loved that Tati was your first guest.😁

[@justintime4174]

I feel old I used to watch these two KZbinrs and DulceCandy back in the days. Like now I have 3 kids wow. I’m so glad it’s Michelle that interview Tati, Tati looks comfortable and she is able to speak so freely. It looks like 2 besties just catching up in a coffee shop.

[@incrediblymysterious]
