Octavia, let me tell you how I have a stuttering issue as well and how you inspired me to start my channel after you've spoken about it. Also, the fact that you were vulnerable enough to leave that footage in the video, which I didn't notice until you mentioned it, shows your authenticity and that's why you're literally one of my favorite KZbinrs. 🖤

[@OctaviaB]

Aww don’t make me cry! I know the feeling and pls know that you can do everything and anything if you put your mind to it! My stutter is so much worse than that there are times when I’m blogging and I cannot get a word out to a point where I just throw the camera down and not even post. But don’t give up. Ever 🤍

[@nathalieolivianja-kwa8653]

❤❤❤❤ there’s something different about this vlog and I like it. You remind me so much of a younger version of myself it’s unbelievable😊 everything about you scream perfection that’s why you are so hard on yourself. Trust and believe you are doing AMAZINGLY.💯 The idea of the scarf is GENIUS✔️ You are a winner 🏆 this why we all love you 💓oui GRIS =GREY 🤭 since am your shade twin what shades of foundation do you get ? I have backstage in 6N I still have to mix it with NARS in other to get the correct shade. Girl, I decided to only get high end beauty products Nars Ysl and Dior are the 3 foundations I currently use. I am in the look for a new pressed powder am kind of tired of the CT😏 help please😊 Thank you for sharing your life with us ❤❤❤ we like your authenticity and kindness 🌹

[@MissLulu7857]

She really has a lot of us here 😊 When i first started watching her videos in 2019 her relaxed hair and sewing videos the way she used to dress and also keep everything so clean and decent I even relaxed my 4c hair because of her that was how I was obsessed about her she used to do like slick law pony a lot I'm so proud of her I believe that we two will get there in Jesus name 🙏

I love that you said you are over editing out your stutter. We all have insecurities. Thank you for normalizing them. It makes it easy for me to love all of me.❤

[@OctaviaB]

Thank you 😊

[@beingtashabills]

Love how authentic, chatty you can be but also not saying too much when it comes to your personal life.

We love you so much Octavia. Always choose your happiness and peace, always 💐

[@Lifewithbelly412]

Literally fell so much more in LOVE with who you are and your content. Being vulnerable around our insecurities is so hard! Wow!! Thank you! You did something with this one O!

[@godwina.realtor6855]

Hi Octavia, I know you wish you wore the white, but I honestly feel like the outfit choice was PERFECT! I remember when you put it on IG and my mouth dropped as I said to myself “My God, Octavia looks so stunning” 🤩. The red lip set it offffff even more ❤

[@CourtneyyMorriss]

Agreed!!

[@keishacampbell6272]

Love you my Jamaican queen ❤ you are so refreshing to watch . One love 🇯🇲

[@OctaviaB]

Thank you love!

[@ntombihadebe4822]

Love the new lip combo ,you have transformed and changed to the woman you always aspired to be and I'm so happy we've come a long way from renting offices with Rene and wow ❤❤❤

[@diaryofaari]

Octavia, you recently gravitating towards silver and deeper colors isn't strange or by happenstance. I think your color season is Deep Winter (DW). You seem to have neutral-cool undertones. As a DW, one can get away with wearing gold, but silver pops more on our skin. Also, DWs look amazing in deep, cool blues, greens, teals, reds, purples, etc. It might be worth looking into the DW color palette or getting a professional color analysis altogether. Finding my color season changed my life. 😄🙌🏽

[@OctaviaB]

Ooooo yes I’m a neutral! I’ll look into this actually because I’m been thinking about it

[@tiyyas3022]

Octavia, I am see that joy and happiness you’re speaking about. It truly radiates through in your movements , your home and overall being. So happy for you! Thank you for the reminder as well!

[@OctaviaB]

Thank you so much! 🤍

[@NotThatDeep]

Hey, Octavia. Longtime viewer here. I must say, I can tell that creating content no longer feeds your soul. So what makes you happy girly. Life is way too short.

[@kiamichelle7921]

I agree and it’s okay. It’s been fun watching the journey from so many years ago.

[@Renee0519]

I loved this vlog so much. Felt real. Your happiness is beautiful. Struggles and all. ❤ being vulnerable is hard, especially publicly.

[@Ne55y]

In my late thirties and I’ve been stuttering all my life. I’ve learnt to laugh after myself and continue to get that word out eventually haha. Anyways love to see people doing the same thing. Keep up with videos, been watching them for a couple of years now 😊

[@kadinereynolds6567]

Happiness definitely comes from within!! So agree and I've learned to be intentional about certain things. Thanks for sharing Octavia, we love you too 🤍

[@OctaviaB]

🤍🤍❤️

[@deejejey9712]

Nice to see you Octavia!! OMG I must say that Zara blue set is so cute!! Iike that and I like that colour blue 😊😊😊

[@krystalrichardson3642]

I thought the blue looked great! It stood out amongst the others!

[@OctaviaB]

Thank you 😊

[@sensto]

Octavia, it's always a pleasure to witness your creative evolution. You may be a public figure now, but you're still entitled to your privacy so never feel obligated to share more than you're comfortable with. Those who truly support you will understand.

[@tranquillvibes8849]

I always appreciate your wisdom!! Continue to be YOU Octavia you don’t understand the impact you’ve had on me and my personal journey to self love. You are worthy of everything great coming your way! 💖

[@OctaviaB]

🤍🤍🤍🤍 thank you for watching

[@bianca1983-]

I use to be so self conscious of my stutter- I use to really try to think of my words before I say it - now that I’m older - I’m like girl - bye .. I don’t even think of it much anymore ..

[@OctaviaB]

Aww! I do try to think before I speak, but even as I’m thinking …the words are refusing to leave my lips, but I am realizing that it’s a part of me and people are just gonna have to wait a little bit longer for me to get the words out lol & THATS OKAY

[@Belinda_Love]

We love you too Octavia 💜

[@MissLulu7857]

Octavia if only you know what you are doing for us whenever I am down don't feel like filming i will come here and watch some of your videos i started watching your videos today around 2:56 AM now is 5:45 AM 😊 because you inspired me a lot whenever I watch your videos I get motivated from them a lots i always learn one or two things from each of your videos🫶

[@lindaann768]

Octavia you are a beautiful addition in all beauty spaces yes women of color have so much to offer and bring to all brands we are very unique in so many way black is beautiful black is amazing remember that everyday of your life

Listen, I love watching you with all your quirkiness etc….because you are me. I’m just not a KZbinr lol. Never apologize for what is…. you still amazing beautiful inside and outside.
