I've been going through a breakup the last few days, it's been super rough, and the analogy I gave my friends to explain to them why I was still so active was : "I'm like a shark, if I stop swimming I'll die 🤣", it was heartwarming to hear you having kind of the same approach of "can you put one foot in front of the other ?". Hope you feel better ❤️

[@PetraHanner]

Adorable kitty, adorable friends. Hope the sunshine returns to your world soon 💛

[@samanthaminetto4251]

I didn't know I needed a Rachel ASMR

[@lizasoliman723]

i love the whispered pep-talk & bringing it around again at the end ♥️

[@allybis]

I am so glad I found your channel. Thank you for your honesty, Rachel.

[@MagisterialVoyager]

omg TOAST IS ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUSSSS AHHHHHH welcome to the family PRINCESSSS

[@notimeforthis20]

the reminder at the end of the video resonated so much with me. also your advise in other videos regarding focusing more on the habits (the process) instead of the end result itself has helped a lot. thank you 💗

[@duchy13]

Sending love to you, you’ll be back to your best soon ❤

[@jewelsfosterartist]

I feel this. I was struggling a lot last year with PTSD and anxiety. I felt I had to just limit my goals. One was just make the bed if I can make the bed I feel I’m not doing so bad. Then I was able to add on to that. I had to keep reminding myself this isn’t forever this is just what is happening right now. Right now my dog been struggling with arthritis with sleep and mobility. Haven’t had the best sleep. Been taking a lot out of me and doing what’s best for him. The vets say he’s doing well aside from typical senior things. Again just a small phase of my life it won’t be forever. Sorry you been sad and congrats on the new addition!

[@zoeivanov3656]

this video came at just the right time- I lost my job recently and it's been difficult trying to pick myself back up and getting into a routine. I was very in my head and watching this reminded me that it's ok to take things slowly and do what feels right to care for myself. Also, Toasts appearance made me smile, congrats on your growing fur family, and hope you feel better soon too ❤

[@melodybroome6203]

Perfect timing to watch this, thank you! New addition ridiculously adorable ❤

[@feralmeditations8520]

On days I feel like crap, I do the things I never want to do. I don't feel like doing anything. I might as well give future me a little treat.

[@annasicard3367]

I am in my first trimester of a high-risk pregnancy, so I have not been able to stick to my workout plans due to nausea and fatigue, so I needed to see this. I have been feeling down mentally because of this. My doctor has assured me as soon as I cross into the second trimester, I will bounce back, but it is difficult to look to the future when you feel down in the present.

[@RachelAust]

Sending you soooo much love 💓💓

[@GaiaGuarda]

I hope you feel better soon ♥️♥️

[@melissamoonchild9216]

I just lost my cat, my best friend and incurred several professional rejections. Needless to say I've been really having a hard time so I especially appreciate this content.

[@RachelAust]

Sending you my love 💓

[@izzaweihaas]

TOAST is sooo cute!

[@MyDreamingMistress]

Always love watching your videos; they bring me so much joy. I absolutely lost is when I saw Toast, oh my goodness, in love!!! She is precious.

[@MagisterialVoyager]

i love your cooking videos so much. it's such a healthy vibe. calming too. thanks!

[@harryslytherin2445]

I really appreciate this video especially the last part. Thank you, Rachel!❤

[@MissEmalemaleee]

Hey Rachel, Just wanted to give a heads up incase you didn't already know. I've noticed you like to buy Lillies for your apartment and they are Toxic to Cats. Much love!

[@RachelAust]

Ty! I haven’t bought them since I’ve had Toast 💓💓

[@rocketbuttterfly]

Thankyou so much Rachel. You are so right, i'm neglecting myself 'cause I think something else is happening is more important, or I'm kind of punishing myself for the situation, and it is a spiral I need to stop. You are so right.

[@AmaraStoltzfus]

I am so appreciative of the community you’ve built here! I feel safe & seen and it’s all I could have ever ask for from a channel :) Like most of the other comments, I have been struggling myself. This video came just at the right time! Your advice and outlook always helps me shift my perspective! 🫶🏼✨

[@wissalamerzgoune4832]

Can’t believe one of my two favourite youtubers r in one video Rachel*2 😍🥺

[@mini_plante]

Sending lots of love and good energy from Romania, Europe! 🌱 Hope they make you feel better! Take your time and you'll be at your best soon! 🤗

[@sdafergu]

I love little Toast! Earlier in the vlog I saw the cat tree and I was like "Rachel doesn't have a cat." 😂 Hope life starts getting better for you. 💕

[@byyoursideentombed]

Never heard about replacing walking shoes in 4-6 weeks and I worked in shoe stores for years. Sounds like BS. Buy a good quality hiking shoe and they should last years, that's why all the seniors wear them every day in their golden years, because podiatrists approve of a shoe that doesn't flex as much in the shank. Shoes like Nike runners are about as well made as Big W runners.

[@liz-tastic.]

I noticed the cat tree before introducing Toast and thought huh that’s odd for her dogs 😂 she’s adorable!!

[@raychl6463]

Always so nice to see you! Thank you for sharing with us💜

[@beautifulcandy1]

[@movaab]

Toast is so cute!!! I’m waiting to hear back from my landlord about getting a cat 🤞🏻

[@justathought1971]

[@annamarihiljanen5221]

Ooh! Australians actually eat kangaroo meat! 👀I had never considered that, but of course. How does it taste like?? And is it always from hunting the wild ones or do they grow them in farms? 🤔

[@rlee1172]

Aussie here! 🇦🇺🪃Yep, we have roo a little bit here. It's got a bit of a strong taste so not for everyone (its hard to explain but quite a strong flavour). They are wild ones, not farmed. Pretty affordable and extremely low in fat. Seems weird that we eat our Aussie icon but yep, we do. We call kangaroo sausages "kanga bangers" 🫣🫣🦘🦘

[@annamarihiljanen5221]

@@rlee1172 Interesting! Thanks for the info🤓💫🙏

[@LengendsLine]

Hii, I want to came the US ,but there is problem , i don't know anybody there, so can u help me ? I am waiting for Your reply
