Your grandmother is so brave. Clearing up ancestral burdens through openness is so crucial. Kudos to her, your mom and you!

Thank you for saying this: "Clearing up ancestral burdens through openness is so crucial". Thank you. Thank you.

[@jmc8076]

Agreed. Secrets only feed shame which itself only feeds the pain and those in pain will hurt others and so it goes. What’s brought into the light can heal.

[@colleenwilliams7314]

Firstly, what a privilege and blessing to still have your mom and grandmother around. Treasure them and their childhood stories. Secondly, Luke reminds me so much of my late husband. I walked with my head in the clouds...but my late husband kept me grounded. He understood me like no one else and loved me unconditionally. I think you and Luke make a beautiful couple. Stay strong.

[@somebodysmom3747]

Paola, you are a rare flower in the Garden of Eden. Thanks for all you do, and the beauty and joy you spread around.

[@iswimthedeeps]

A rare flower in the Garden Of Eden indeed, someone who immersed herself in the peace of solitude, who saw what kept her from her true self, who created exquisite beauty out of her unique beauty. Thank you Paola for the modeling and inspiration you give me through your artistry.

[@katewaters1429]

Your abuela sent me into tears. I have recently broken away and stopped talking to my narcissistic mother who has verbally abused me so much of my life. It has been hard as she wants back in, but your grandmothers words spoke right to my soul! I am breaking the generational trauma for my children 💗 thank you for the blessing that your channel is!

[@candacepeterson3218]

Sweet Kate....it is worth going through the pain to live in a place of peace continually and not drama and trauma. I pray the Lord brings you healing and comfort as you walk into healthy boundaries. And that you have deeper joy and wisdom to share with your own dear children as a result. Sending a hug your way today, mother to mother 🖤

[@laurafitzpatrick9667]

Dear Kate, I grew up the same and walked away to give my children a normal life twenty plus years ago. She recently died and while I wish things would have been different I don't regret walking away for one minute.

Luke is such a nice, supportive, friendly husband😀. You both look so happy and cute together. And your mother and grandmother are wonderful. Loved the video!

[@LadySpeedwell]

Dear Poala, I stumbled across The Cottage Fairy a few days ago and I am so grateful! I have been watching your videos before sleep since. I have been feeling a bit lost and I want to thank you for helping me feel calmer, more focused, less fearful and more hopeful. Bless you. Lots of love, Wendy (London) x

[@julieanna8495]

Thank you for the idea to watch this channel before bedtime.🍃💕. How could one NOT become de-stressed enough for restful sleep after listening to her sweet, calm voice? I am in my 60s and I am in awe of her poise and essence. She is such a lady.

[@SaffJuno]

I ALWAYS save up her videos for when I am in bed ready to sleep, it's so comforting and relaxing. Saff (Devon) x

[@lucialopez7153]

I found her right on time before entering a new chapter in my life…my only daughter headed off to college..I’m home alone with more time on my hands ..watching her videos have been so helpful to me at a time like this..i cuddle up on my couch 🛋 and binge watch one video after another✨

[@kelsGodsgirl]

Not going to lie, I cried a few happy tears over this ❤️ Especially what your abuela said. I am breaking some cycles over here myself, so it was beautiful to me to see her example and the lovely people (herself included) whose lives were shaped by her choices. Thank you for sharing these special people with us!

[@dianevp8644]

I smiled the whole way through this video! The mami and abuelita such perfection and now I understand your ways and soft spoken demeanor. Luke was the icing on the cake -- he is a great match for you; I can see the love -- shy and reserved but looks at you like a husband should, so lovingly! Thank you for sharing them with us. ❤️. Love my beautiful cards I ordered, so special!

[@Georgiamoore2009]

[@candacenagle505]

Ah...So lovely! My cousin and I were talking this evening about how we are the cycle breakers in our generation. I have utmost respect and admiration for your grandmother and mother. Aren't you fortunate to have their strength running in your veins? And what a handsome young man Luke is...you are so fortunate to have found each other! Thanks for sharing your beloved people with us!

[@alissaevelyn]

[@franklinstephen3268]

Hello Candace how are you doing?

[@kathleenfrieden5948]

Yes! It is good to be cycle breakers!!

[@healingwithines]

Thanks so much for this video! 💚 I'm from Spain and, like your grandma, I was severly abused as a kid. I'm now 38 and C-PTSD still affects my daily life in some degree. My parents died almost 3 years ago, at the beginning of the pandemic, from covid, and since then I've been speaking up a bit about my childhood with the hope I can help others a bit. I think of the kids and teenagers who are, sadly, currently going through the same horror I went through. And then I imagine how much it would have helped me, as a teenager, to hear somone older than me talking about how their future life is totally worth it, in spite of all the pain they went through as kids. And I want to speak up, hoping I can be that person to teenagers who may read what I write. However, I sometimes wonder whether I'm being a "bad person" for speaking ill of my parents (even though they kind of deserve it) and I have doubts about what I'm doing... But listening to your grandma talking in this video has made me realize it's okay. It's so refreshing to see someone from an older generation speak up unapologetically about what they went through as kids. And it helps me tremendously. I feel better about what I'm doing. Because now I know I can really help younger people. Thank you so, so much. By the way, your grandma is an amazing, strong, badass woman for breaking the cycle of abuse like that! It is NOT easy. She has my deepest respect. 💚🙏 💚🙏

[@janetcole2492]

Paola, I am 64 years old and you have also brought a healing to my heart. Your gentle spirit is refreshing, and watching you live out your life in a slower, more gentle pace has helped me. I watched the interview with your Mom and Grandmother and it was very touching. I am thankful that out of the trauma that was a part of her daily life, she brought up children, and influenced her grandchildren, that good can come of everything. Thank you for sharing your life and your family with us.

[@LizzyC-nf1sv]

You have wonderful people in your life Paola! Your mother, grandmother, your husband, they are all very sweet. Thanks for sharing this part of your life with us!

[@BethGrantDeRoos]

Your abuelita/grandmother is so right, about breaking the cycle of any negative behavior. And this is where good friends can play such an important role.

[@austinhowland300gmail.]

Hello Beth how are you doing

[@barbarashoemaker6773]

I'm delighted to get to meet these very special people in your life. I enjoy all your videos so much. They are so soothing to my soul, as well as being educational. You live in such a beautiful part of the country. I adore your choices of background music, your sweet pets, and I love watching you bake a tasty treat or brew a cup of tea. I'm also of the opinion that one cannot possibly have too many books! Please continue making your wonderful uplifting and relaxing videos. They are an oasis of calm in a chaotic world. Oh, and in case you're interested in the demographics of your followers, I just turned 70 (according to my birth certificate) but feel much younger in my heart and mind, thanks in no small part to you.

[@julieanna8495]

Just watching her innocence makes me feel decades younger too. I am in my middle 60s and she reminds me of how I used to react to the world before burdens and heavy personalities entered my life. I believe she reminds us how simple and lovely life can be if we just allowed all this technology to slip away. 🪷🌼🍃. She even makes her own homemade spaghetti noodles in an old-fashioned hand-turned appliance. And then adds embellishments to the noodles.☘️🌸. She is a true treasure of a person.

[@luciesimackova4805]

She is really a fairy within, love this little pixie

[@lauracirne44]

I could listen you mom and grandma talking all day, it was like a cozy porch gathering 🤍

[@juneroberts5305]

Your grandmother has my deepest, deepest respect. Breaking the cycle of abuse is so difficult, and even people with the best intentions can not do it, yet she says it like it wasn't a big deal. One thing I have often told my mother, was that I respected and admired her for going through hell as a child, teen, and young woman at the hands of her father, but that she refused to be like him. It takes iron will and it's not easy but listening to your grandmother and my mother, they make it seem like a no-brainer. May God bless them eternally for giving us happy and violence free childhoods so that we have nothing but love and tolerance to pass on to our children. ❤️❤️❤️

[@sunnyw4148]

My way of breaking the abuse cycle was not to have children. I am a great auntie.

[@aybukeozel7582]

So much love from Turkey to you and to your lovely family Paola ♥️ I’m so happy that your abuela likes something from my homeland and I already love Puerto Rico and its culture, even without seeing it with my eyes, just by knowing beautiful people like you and your family are from. Thank you for creating beautiful content in this platform. We are very lucky to experience your positive and calm energy in our daily lives even from afar♥️

It's amazing to see 3 generations of women laughing and chatting in different languages, and so seamlessly as well. For me that would be the ultimate happiness in my life but unfortunately that ship has sailed, sadly. Cherish all those moments you have together and I would recommend recording more videos for yourself of your family. It's nice to hear you speaking Spanish :) x

[@leonaweltzer4023]

That ship has sailed for me too but I have many wonderful memories of conversations around the dining room table mid morning, with my mom, my aunt, my grandmother, and my great grandmother. I don’t remember the words, but I remember the feeling of closeness.

[@TCat13]

Wow, how wonderful that you and Luke have each other in this world! You have always seemed so strong and so grounded in your videos, and it's clear that you inherited at least some of this from your mom and abuela. What an amazing family. I really enjoyed this video! 💜

[@divaodete]

First let me preface by saying I don’t believe I have ever commented but I have been loving your channel since I first stumbled across it. As a mother and grandmother I can tell you will come to cherish these videos as time passes, especially these introductions to your family, your brother, Luke and of course your mother and grandmother. This digital age is providing you a gift that you will come back to time and again. At my age I wish I could go back to the cherished conversations with my parents and family but make do with old photos and am thankful for the videos and FaceTime chats with my grandchildren. Even if you choose to never share this with your fans again you should continue to make these ‘chat’ videos for your future children and grandchildren. I wish you peace in your heart and soul and a future of love and happiness.

[@aimiliina]

i got chills when your grandma talked about breaking the cycle (the "patron" i think she called it, i may be wrong i sadly don't speak spanish). what a powerful creator of a new universe for your lineage. it all starts with a small decision of one person and it leads to things that impact entire generations! if every single one of us decided to break one pattern, not even one remotely as traumatic as that of your abuela's, we would be consciously creating a new generation of humans, more evolved, loving, caring and aware of the power of human unity and connectedness. thank you for sharing this video!

It also gives me personally more hope that my son will find his love and in as little as three years we could be a more complete family too! Yay! In the meantime, I am so very happy for you all!!💕

We love you Paola, not just your content... 🥰 I've truly enjoyed this video!

[@DianeC1975]

It was so nice to meet your mother and grandmother. They made me smile the whole time I was watching. Made me miss my mother so much. And Luke, don't tell him this but he's a treasure. I am fortunate in having one of those in my life as well. (47 years). May you both be as happy. Thank you Paola. 💕🤗

@Diane C, you wrote the exact words I would have said. My sister was a Diane C for Carpenter, 2 yrs 2 days younger than me. She passed 5 yrs ago. I have been married 47 yrs also. I couldn’t help but notice the similarities. 🙂 I enjoy Paola’s peaceful, calming nature and seeing her with her beautiful mom/grandmother and handsome Luke (my youngest grandsons name) was a real treat! God bless you all!

I totally agree with you! My treasure and gift from God, my hubby and I have been married 44 years!

It is so gratifying and heart warming to read about your long term relationships. Thank you for sharing that. Does my heart good. I am single and have been for 95% of my adult life. I am in my mid 60s but I still believe in marriage and love. I have learned to be and am truly content in my singleness but wouldn’t rule out that possibility for me even at this late stage in life. God bless you all!

You are an adorable couple. I wish both of you all the happiness.

Para los que hablamos español éste video es perfecto. Cuándo escuché a tu abuela decir "no repitan el mismo patrón" me dije: Ésto es sabiduría en su totalidad. Ella es muy sabía (en ese aspecto ya que no conozco otros). Me declaro tu fan desde hoy ;)🥳

[@armintaamadorpadilla9250]

Si! Este video lo cambia todo. La hace tan real, natural 😍🥰

[@myotheraccountonothe]

Betcha no one skipped this,it was so heartfelt and warming. I love you my cottage fairy 🧚🏻‍♀️

[@graceannec2239]

How lovely Paola to meet your Luke, Abuela and your Mum also! I was smiling as I listened to your and Luke’s story about the mountain glacial fed lake. You have a beautiful family! Wishing you and Luke many healthy and happy years together. Warmly, from the Canadian west coast!

[@hannahfansler9642]

Wow! Three generations of gorgeous women, both inside and out. And your husband is a gem. Thank you for sharing all these special people with us, Paola. ❤

[@c.burwell2618]

Lovely, gentle souls. This was heartwarming - thank you for sharing.

[@DinaMadi23]

Lovely to meet Luke, your mom and abuela. They all exude kindness and love. Now I understand even more where you got your beautiful smile from. Thank you for sharing your spontaneous idea with us.

[@luciaballesteros6201]

this is my FAVORITE video of yours so far, I felt very identified since my grandmother (the person I love the most) also had a very traumatic childhood because of her own mom's mental issues and necessities, growing up in a big family and in a southamerican country 60 years ago was very tough, and in spite of all that, she raised us in a love bubble, she's the sweetest person I know and she actually looks very much like your grandma too haha I loved watching this so much, abuelas are the best!

[@harmshoney]

idk why but i definitely sobbed the entire time your mom & abuela were speaking. thank you for sharing your family with us! xoxo

[@jackline3900]

Thank you Paola for speaking about childhood abuse and your grandmother advice is one of the rare 💎 love you all

[@jeanneewaseck6635]

Paola, this video melts my heart. Thank you for sharing the people that you love!!!

[@kgt9925]

Such a beautiful and very personal video. Listening to your grandmother talk about having raised her children differently than how she had been raised was very moving. I also had a very difficult mother who was emotionally and psychologically abusive, rather than physically abusive. I am now aged 63 and I haven't yet recovered, but seeing your mum and grandmother together smiling and laughing was reassuring that perhaps one day I will smile and laugh again.

[@Dana-mb1hd]

One day you will sooner than you know!💜🙏

[@mysticalmargaret6105]

Watching and listening to your mom and abuela, it's easy to see where you get your elegance and your grace. And it is clear that you're hubby is your loving soul mate! Thank you for sharing a little bit of them with us. 🌷🌹🌻🌼🍄🍃🍀💮🌺💞💞💞🕊️🕊️🕊️

[@LionheartedDan]

Love seeing your dear family - thank you for sharing!

[@velyndabertomen]

Such a wonderful, brave, and strong line of women to lean on. Loved “meeting” them and Luke! Thanks for opening this bit of your life to us 🥰❤️😘

[@HerCupOfCOZY]

Luke is the sweetest!! And funniest! Love you guys...this was beautiful!

[@donnieparker1811]

So uplifting how playful you and Luke are together. Obviously a marriage made in heaven. Also obvious is the delight in the interactions of the three generations of women. Thank you for showing us your people and the rich relationships. ♥️

[@erin_explorestheoutdoors]

This was one of the sweetest and most smile-inducing videos! I loved hearing your abuela share about her life and in Spanish. I was pleased to discover that I haven’t completely forgotten the Spanish that I learned in school. Your mother and abuela are stunning! Such incredibly beautiful souls! And you and Luke are absolutely adorable!!! You’ve both got that newlywed glow, and it is so lovely. I love that three people whom you love dearly were willing to share a little bit of themselves with this community you’ve built.

[@brianludlow9104]

Paola, you and Luke have a great shared dynamic.... You both had me smiling for your part of the video. I can see that much of your strength and independence you have inherited.

[@RedVelvetLines]

I love you and Luke together. A relationship that keeps you laughing is the best kind. Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness ❤️

[@marialzbth]

oh so sweet, especially you with Luke,,,, very very blessed that you have shared your loved ones on camera. Blessings to you all 🙏🧚‍♀🧚‍♂🧚
