WEEKLY VLOG | in nyc with sephora squad, update & more | Octavia B

[@OctaviaB]

Thank you

[@OctaviaB]

Winner will be chosen & announced on 10/22! I will reach out to you. If anyone reaches out before asking you to pay, it’s a SCAM!

[@ShamyraC]

Gurllllllll I’m only 40 seconds in and you just spoke my whole mood/life lately with KZbin! I haven’t been consistent either and have been feeling over it! LOL I used to be so passionate and loved filming/vlogging and now I don’t even feel like turning on my camera to do the whole “Hey guys!!” 🙄 Everything I record I delete or don’t edit. I be thinking to myself like I wish I never even started and just stayed invisible. Wooo 😮‍💨 Ok! Continuing to watch 🩷

[@OctaviaB]

Aww sending virtual hugs! I get the feeling but don’t feel pressured it’s a lot

[@NaheedaFlamer]

You first few minutes describe why I’m a bit hesitant to start KZbin. It just seem like my life would be consumed and ran by a camera 😩😩😩 Take your break. I love how real you are with yourself fist and us!

[@PortiaHarris]

I've been watching your channel for a few years now, and you've worked so hard to achieve everything that you've done this far!! Enjoy the break you derserve it, and also I look forward to the content you're working on! Just do what feels right to YOU!! love ya girl!!!!

[@kadinereynolds6567]

We will miss you but you have to do what's best for you! We will be here when you get back, we love our Octavia! 🤍

[@serenityh.]

Thank you for linking the Zara jacket Octavia. It looks so cute.

[@withkrystel]

We’ll watch whatever Octavia posts! Also love your chill vlogs like this, and seeing this Sephora squad moment made me so proud!! Enter me

[@SaharaKnows]

being a vlogger seems like the worst. having to pull out the camera for every moment and not being able to be present in the moment and having everything be "content". no privacy and never being able to have an authentic moment. doesn't seem appealing at all. I understand why a lot of creators are quitting the vlogs. people want to separate their real lives from "content creation" its not sustainable.

[@OctaviaB]

It can be a lot

[@tinabeanie6402]

Absolutely take your breaks as you need. It will allow you to continue to vlog for enjoyment and fulfillment and show up as your best self. We will be here.👍👍

[@TypicallyToni]

We will always love you too ❤ Take as much time as you need!!!

[@OctaviaB]

Thanks lovely!

[@ntomboxolonguqu263]

Take all the break you need Octa. We all need to fill our cups every now and then. When you come back we will still be right here❤️love from South Africa!!! #Enter me🇯🇲

[@abigailosei2759]

Hey friend, I'm so glad you're setting boundaries with yourself. Do what you love and LOVE what you do. If you need to take a break from the vlogs to fall back in love with them again, then do it! Don't feel pressured to upload vlogs if your heart is not in it. You've accomplished so much (I'm so proud of you!) And you're gifted in so many other areas (cooking, interior design, makeup, fashion, using your voice to inspire women, etc.). I'm excited to witness the elevation in your content creation in those particular areas. Don't get me wrong, I love the vlogs but I also know that you are multitalented! And the world needs to see it, so show them! We're ALL rooting for YOU and want you to reach higher heights in your career 👏🏿❤️🎉✨!! And you will. See you soon. Use this time to master your craft , but most importantly take care of yourself. XO!!

[@OctaviaB]

Omg I’m crying 😭 thank you ❤️

[@Aba_dd]

The middle part wig is giving actually🔥

[@sonyagarcia3477]

Everyone needs a break. Take as much time you need. See you when you’re ready. Best wishes to you snd your family. Much love!!💜❤️💜

[@Wintersno]

[@kenishah.2041]

Love your transparency at the beginning on how you are feeling, it is absolutely valid-Taking care of yourself & filling up your cup is so important-something I'm also learning. So, please put you first, we truly love you no matter you decide. Sidenote: love how that young lady was fixing your crown-so sweet of her & you look absolutely beautiful throughout the vlog-Love that blue stain dress you wore in NY🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

We gone be here regardless Octavia! We love you!! All of your content is A-1! 🙌🏾💐 As I’ve said before, I discovered your channel from your relaxer days…. I can’t wait til you give us your natural hair content. (I’m in the process of transitioning to natural as well) I love your new wig segments. I’ve been very much a natural sew in Kinda gal & never wore a wig full wig before but you’ve convinced time & time again 😭 so for Christmas, I think I’m gonna purchase my first unit. I also love your cooking segments so I’d love to see more of that! You seem so in your element when you cook & everything looks sooooo yummy. Also.. this is a little random lol but I love seeing you at home! You can just see how relaxed & happy you are in your own space. I relate to this so much! Once again… thank you for such amazing content! Regardless what parts of your life you decide to share, we love it & we will be here💛 P.S…. Enter Me! Xoxo, Jazmine

I'm glad you have chosen to focus on this type of content. I'm looking forward. We had this conversation recently… KZbin is more of a reference point for improvement lately and Vlogs not so much…

[@nonnagabriel]

The side part wig on you is everything ✨

[@NaturallyShelbyV]

It's okay to take a break, there's absolutely no need to even have to explain. You are more obligated to take care of yourself as it allows for you to provide us with better content. Enjoy the break!
