Hi guys🤍 this video is very looooonnng sorry!! There was no way I could make it shorter, if I did it would be more confusing coz it already is. Please grab yourself a cup of coffee or wine or whatever you like😚 maybe a tissue too if you’re a crier 😅🫶🏿 I will do the Q&A that I promised you in the next video. Please don’t forget to subscribe 😚 Hope you enjoy the video.

[@cletta_n]

Stop apologizing. I'm loving it!!

[@motherofcubs]

Nah i love them long, i am gonna buy wine nd enjoy after work, i don't want work to spoil my fun. So So excited i could kiss you now on your fourhead.

[@nombusogoddess]

No complaints here in HR, we good❤

[@cletta_n]

Oh Wendy thank you so much for sharing! You deserve to live your Pinterest board 😂😂😂

[@kwenadi4850]

I have my water, milk iced coffee.... and I am camping here til the end. We love them long, esp from you Wendicles

[@mamoisemabuza436]

I am watching on TV and I literally pulled my laptop to comment. Firstly, I am very happy to see that a lot of ladies have already stated the same sentiment I share. You really do not need to share so much! If we are being frank - People are nosey and we are just too scared to say that. Wendy you have shared here and there. We know the basics around your adoption story. I do not know how that must have been but can only imagine it must have been hard. However knowing that sad and traumatic parts of your life will not be beneficial to me in any way (respectfully). What more do people want you to share? I don't get it. People can literally subscribe to a channel from watching a Shein haul and not even know the creators name. I aspire how you have done so well for yourself and I am greatly interested in your career path as a woman in tech, I loooove your unique sense of style so for those reasons I have watched you grow on this platform. From time to time, I ask stuff on dm related to the interests that drew me to you. (work and interior) I could be wrong however I sometimes think that a lot of the audience that consumes influencer entertainment or craft usually view it from a perception of motivation which is a good thing but an unhealthy part of that is how people tend to be drawn or 'connected' to one based on their hardship. I think this maybe because people want a real life stories that proves how ones life can change irrespective of where they come from which again, this is not a bad thing. let us not misconstrue it and make creators believe they have to share intense and uncomfortable information about themselves for us to build a better connection with them.(The same concept with Nthabiseng Mathole happened and she started the rebirth series to 'connect' with her audience) As much as 1 creator can say 'I come from a family of entrepreneurs and lived a very comfortable life as a kid' and that becomes the end of it, other creators that grew up differently to that should be allowed the same. Its coming off as a longing to trauma bond. It's as if people want you to explain yourself and how you are where you are now.. I sometimes struggle to watch big influencers because I simply do not connect with them ,if something in their video sparks my interest I will click to watch and fast forward to what I want to consume. Although I do subscribe to a lot of channels, my consumption differs based on my interest and connection form one youtuber to the other however I do not believe that connection is not based on how much you know about a person, You either like them or the content or you don't. Love your work mama! You are a great creator, your craft is absolutely timeless!💚

[@phumzilephiri]

Well said

[@Grow_withbella]

100% agree on everything. Also actually interested in her career path, especially after the research I’ve done. Tech is really growing and there’s a demand in the industry. Are you currently studying, working in tech or want to venture into tech?

[@Makube_P]

Couldn’t have said it better myself 💯 💞

[@magdalinecreations]

Well said .......❤❤❤

[@lungilenkabinde7233]

Beautifully articulated.

[@nontobee]

After you mentioned my name I had to pause and write this comment. I wish you could see the smile on my face rn 😆😆😆😆🙈🙈🙈🙈 thank you so much for this, you made my day😆😆❤️❤️ to think I didn’t even feel like I was helping you, I was just being myself and doing what I thought a normal person would do 😄😄 but ke I really liked you (and I still do) that’s why I didn’t mind sharing my room with you❤️

[@nokwazishezi7580]

May God bless your heart ❤️

My dear your story is so touching and Sorry that you had to go though all the pain and God bless the people who take care of kids that don't have parents

[@charmainekwari-machinga9345]

Even without knowing much about your personal life I was drawn to you...there is something very loveable about you❤

[@Bontle_Phenya]

Same , and she made me fall inlove with the way she dresses and Victorian style

[@refiloelegoale1140]

First of all this is the most vulnerable video Ive seen in a long time. Secondly thank you for opening up and letting us in your upbringing. Thirdly, I’m so glad your boyfriend is here to be your “home”. You’ve done so well for yourself Wendy. We truly aren’t our circumstances❤️

[@Ntombi_Lusenga]

Oh Wendy! You have evolved so much.....I have been watching your channel for 2 years now. From avoiding to talk about anything that has to do with family, your relationship with food and accepting compliments of your beautiful body to this episode? You used to desert your KZbin when you felt down to last week just telling us that you are not fine then proceeded with recording. I'm sooooo proud of you my lady. I'm so happy that you are taking back your power because hey you are a powerhouse! You deserve all the good things that are coming your way. PS: I love how intentional you have been with growing your channel lately. We are rooting for you!❤

[@mbalipenelopedube340]

This story was actually sad, but you conquered and came out the hero of your own story.

[@refilwemogami7788]

Mina I feel like we don't need to know everything about you...what you share with us is enough😊

[@Zine_Ngcobo]

100%

[@tandiswajafta5726]

Naamm

[@blackvelvetno1]

I have to agree with one of the above posters. I was surprised when this came up on my feed. You are not obliged to share anything about your life. Especially things that may trigger you. People in particular strangers do not have the right to access that information (if you dont want to share it) and its ok to set boundaries with your audience. I view you as a renovation/home blogger, your personal life has no impact on my viewing and I will continue to watch.

[@JNM834]

When you said I packed my clothes in a school bag and ran away, I cried.

[@zoenkosi2401]

😢

[@Mandisa_Nombika.]

Oh, Wendy! I know you & Nqo from campus, didn’t know much about you but I was drawn to you. Found out about your KZbin channel & I’ve been following you since, your achievements are so personal to me because I feel like I know you. Thank you for sharing this part of your life with us, I’m even more proud of you now that you overcame everything that you went through & you’re here now living your Pinterest dreams & all. So so proud of you, can’t wait to witness God’s grace carrying you going forward ❤️

[@nkanyezindlovu410]

Couldn’t have said it better friend ♥️ We’ve beeeeen following them. God really should bless them beyond what their minds can ever fathom!

[@callmenthabi6300]

So happy you found someone to do this life with.

[@hlk92]

I fully understand why you never go anywhere for holidays or visit anyone, you never felt settled anywhere and found comfort and safety with people who weren't family and the issues you expressed made it harder to try to build solid relationships with the adopted family or your moms family.. the people who are in your life right now are who you should focus on ❤

[@kaonesemommung559]

Hi Wendy, we are just okay with you sharing as much as you’re comfortable with. Love it here 💕

[@seegos]

Guys please subscribe, because wow, Wendy is one of a kind. She’s so unique and smart. ❤❤❤ Thank u so much for sharing with us and I’m just happy how everything turned out well for you. ❤❤❤❤

[@boys_mom4293]

1k views in an hour, this might be one of the most viewed. Thank you for being vulnerable and having to re-tell such a story but I hope it was liberating on your side. May you continue healing, we all have some sort of childhood trauma that even affect the decisions we make as adults, but God was there in our childhood and He is with us through our adulthood. You're doing well, keep shining.

[@nelisiwenikelodlamini3691]

Let's give ur foster parents a crown, woooooow we praise God for blessing you with them, iyoooooooo ur family from ur mum's side not playing their role, i love how God makes something from a nothing, im sure now they wish they never took u fr granted, just forgive them n move on with ur live but don't bother looking for anyone u tried gel if they really wants you they will find you#shout out to ur man too not taking advantage of ur situation and loved u dearly, may God keep you guys together forever ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@onnicahtlhoaele2195]

Why hasn’t anyone pulled us all for a group hug! Cone guys let’s all hug cos we def got taken on a roller coasts of emotions in this video. Thank you for being vulnerable with us Wendy

[@ladyras]

The memory stays with you. I always around 5 when my mom passed and I can still see the day, the coffin and every single thing that happened. And her face. And her lying in there at peace. That's the only time I can fully remember her

[@tsakanimathye3376]

I am sorry to hear this❤

[@nicolletnyoni4371]

Share what you are comfortable with. I enjoy your content for what it is 😍😍

[@lungilenkabinde7233]

This was so hard to watch Wendy and I imagine it was just as hard to film for you but thank you so so much for sharing. I really do hope that telling your story wasn’t just part of content you had to put out for us but that it benefited you too in some way. Thank you Wendy 💌

[@givenmahlangu1266]

Wow that was a autobiography of your life. I know you might think this was unnecessary but some of us can relate to your story. You strong and you have made it this far . You are blessed and a blessing. Keep shining ✨

[@SheillaSibanda]

Your skin 🙌 🙌 🙌 🙌 🙌 ❤❤❤❤

[@WendySibiya]

Thank you babe❤

[@Ceboh]

It is so brave of you to talk about your life and not break down. I'm an emotional person so I doubt I would have been this strong❤I live at Empangeni and Esikhawini so all those places u mentioned are still there n I know them😂Thank u for being raw with us and don't worry, my subscription from early 2022 is still intact and not shaken❤

[@Cookedby_Mandisa]

Ok when you got to the Matric dance part 🥺 I’m literally sobbing 🥺 thank you for sharing Wends ♥️

[@asipofbontshi]

I know you from Ugie High School. You were such a confident lady in Grade 8B .❤❤

[@boitumeloletsoalo7758]

Wow what a horrific upbringing 🥺 but look at God. You’re an amazing and strong woman. May the good Lord continue to guide you and stand beside you. Love and light 💐💐

[@tendaisithole5868]

You are so brave…Here is to overcoming circumstances that seemed impossible. You are such an inspiration ❤❤❤

[@LeleSelwane]

I knew a lot without knowing enough that there is something about you, your unique taste represents everything beautiful your old soul is. I’ve always liked you but now I think I am inlove with you, your resilience speaks volumes. Your home is where you find your peace, any place that you choose and chooses you back. This was not a sad story just by the way, or at the least to me- rather a tale/journey of misfits, misfires, love, courage, self-love, unbecoming to become… you’re beautiful Wendy! Thank you for sharing, I’ve been here for probably more than 2 years and I’ve always enjoyed you, your content but couldn’t shake the thought of wanting to know you more, being almost certain that there’s something more beautiful about your story♥️♥️♥️

[@vuyimamaimane2297]

People will subscribe Wendy, it takes some time. You've done so well for yourself mama, your story is so touching and motivating. I just wish you the best life ever. Happy Holidays 🎉

[@sebenzilemaseko5749]

You really didn't need to share so much Wendy coz I feel like as your true subcribers we already had plenty of things that connected us to you and kept us coming back over and over. Be careful of people being noisy and wanting too much from you, with that said. . . I am glad you shared your story. I hope it's because you wanted to share and be open with your audience. Remember people who want to support will always support you. Sending you lots of love❤❤❤

[@Modipadi]

I feel the same way😢 she really didn’t have to

[@deemashabela9982]

I wept so hard watching this video Wendy 😭😭. I know you don’t want anyone to feel sorry for you but, as someone your age, I can’t fathom how much you’ve gone through in life already. Also as a mom to a 2 year old girl, it’s scary to think that you could die and leave your innocent child to suffer so much 💔. I don’t know you outside of KZbin and all the times I used to see you at the Gautrain station back in 2019, but I’m so proud of you and happy that you get to live your Pinterest Board 💕💕. May life always be kind to you ❤

[@seegos]

I cried too but I’m also way more happier that life turned so so well for her❤❤❤❤❤

[@ASMRIFYOUMAY]

It was very emotional for me as well 💖

[@nosiphohlongwane4528]

Your story reminds me of my grandparents, they were both adopted. I cried soo much, also searching for unknown truth doesn't help, it leaves you more confused. So proud of your resilience. And you definitely deserve all what your world can offer. Your brotehr doesn't like you because he realises that he wasted his life, whilst you built yourself. The problem is him not you. ❤❤

[@kaboentle5502]

What you said about her brother is so true he hates her because she became what he "should've been" as the older brother

[@tsakanimathye3376]

I understand your home story and not wanting to go back. I am so glad academics and Ben happened 🤍 I am so sorry about your sister🙏🏾

[@_njenje_]

Hi Wendy, Oh I found myself tearing up throughout this video as I reflected on how much you've evolved, both personally and in your content journey. I recall subscribing to your channel back in 2019, and I distinctly remember the numerous requests for this particular video. At the time, you mentioned feeling uncomfortable about sharing it. Fast forward four years, and here you are-having built a community and reached a point where you feel comfortable unveiling one of the most intimate aspects of your life. As you conclude this year and take stock of your achievements, I urge you not to overlook the celebration of your emotional growth. Acknowledge how you've grown stronger and more adept at the art of content creation. ❤

[@lombusodlamini849]

I relate so much with how you feel about loss especially. I lost my grandmother, who was practically my mother in 2018, and I somewhat always imagine her around and even daydream/act out what I'd say if I saw her or even think of her when seeing certain things in the shops. I also partly relate to you with the absence of parents - mine were alive (now only one is) but both chose not to participate in my life & people with parents trigger me and I hurt so much when I think of them losing their parents coz I think it's a painful thing (even though I'm grieving the absence of mine). Overall, dispite the circumstances we've been through, we've done well for ourselves Wendy. I'm not living my Pinterest board yet but I'm tad proud of what I've become. Thank you for sharing your story & hope that someone young going through a similar trajectory draws some strength from your vulnerability. Kuyaphileka guys! Even with the scars and constant fights for better, we concure. So if you're going through this, fight for better & don't succumb to the situation. On home, it's no longer the same once the glue is gone but we soldier on ❤.

[@preciouskapenya1282]

Thank you for trusting us with your story. I feel like I have met Wendy now ❤😊 I love you 😘 You are amazing ❤️ I admire your strength ❤

[@llt4726]

Iyooo...I thought "I knew you"...Wow!!😊😊😊You were clearly meant to live.I love your mom(biological) ,as much as she was so young,she made sure you were taken care of!!

[@balungilesibiya9333]

This made me weep 😭 Lol, I ignored the disclaimer knowing very well how weak I am. You've been through the most and I am so so happy that you made it out. Your story is so relatable. I think we underestimate how much the environment a person grows up in can shape them. So so proud of you Wendy ❤️ you deserve everything you've dreamed of and more.

[@nokwazishezi7580]

Sinenhlahla what a BEAUTIFUL name❤

[@sibusisiwesithole6514]

As for me🙋🏾‍♀️I subscribed long time ago because I love your content. Honestly that was enough for me. I am not saying this video was unnecessary 🙌🏾 Much Love Wendy 🥰

[@TheSecretninja2001]

Hi Wendy 🥰 i appreciate the effort you put into all of your videos and this video must have been very difficult to share. i dont think that you have to know everything about someone's life in order to feel connected to them. i hope you dont feel pressured to share everything about yourself, you definitely dont have to do that, and i hope that if anything, sharing this video was most beneficial for you. i think some people overstep their boundaries in requesting certain information or wanting you to share everything or most of everything and thats not fair to you. Some people are drawn to some creators b/c they just like their vibe, or they remind them of someone they love, or they just like their style, or they want to get a different perspective of the world we live in. i dont know how i first came across your channel but i immediately subscribed b/c i liked your style, the way you film your videos, your calming voice, and the more videos i watched the more i felt youre just so sweet and kind, and i still feel that way. Wishing you the absolute best always 🥰

[@palesamotingoe5905]

I think I started following you in 2020 and you used to say one day you’ll open up about your adoption story and finally today you did it ❤. You are greater than your downfalls and I love you because you know how to create a beautiful life for yourself no matter what , that’s all that really matters in life

[@le2juks565]

I love you, thank you for being vulnerable with us and letting us into your personal life even though you didn't have to. You're strong, as much as the story is so sad but you narrated it without being too emotional i assume you've worked on yourself and accepted your past. You're inspirational and look at where you're now in life. Continue be this strong resilient beautiful girl. I love your content nendlu yakho entle. ❤🎉

[@kealebogamokate1532]

I am so sorry Wendy 😢 but look at you now, such a fine young woman and look at all you've accomplished. So proud of you❤

[@VelileLifestyleDecorTV]

You are such an inspiration with your decor skills and always thriving to improve yourself. As a KZbinr with a career myself, I know that people sometimes watch us on their tv and forget to like and subscribe but your views are proving that you are doing well with KZbin so don’t stress. Thank you for sharing and keep healing. I love your cats so much too and love to see them on your videos. ❤️

[@nthabisengsegola]

You've walked a difficult journey my love, now it's time for you to enjoy everything you've worked hard for💐✨. Please stop supporting that person who doesn't like you, it will really help release some burdens. May love and peace follow you all the days of your life. 💝

[@leratomodika8125]

Yoh your story really touches me. I had a similar experience- my mom died and I had to live with her sister and the kids hated me. I felt left out. Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. Yoh Wendy, I’m crying, sometimes one always feels like they’re going through things alone. I hope I will be able to find a job soon and also live my Pinterest life

[@thembisizani3435]

❤❤

[@mamadeebuildsahouse]

I love your resilience. I've been binging on your channel cause I love your decor style. But I'm also in tech. Interesting.that you prefer testing vs coding, I'm the opposite. But bravo to you and all that you've accomplished in life. I'm so proud of you.

[@ManokoKataka]

This is a sad story, but lm glad you are a strong woman today and an achiever , love you ❤❤❤

[@tshepang_gm]

I salute your mom, may her beautiful, strong soul continue to rest in peace… And may God bless your foster parents, your teachers, your principal and everyone who played a positive role in your life. People go through a lot in life ,it’s the little kind gestures from us as people that can help them in their lowest moments.. Sending all the love to you Wendy ❤

[@mahlodihonoko5380]

Wendy I’m so proud of you. You had a tough upbringing and yet you’ve managed to create a beautiful life for yourself. I am wishing you more healing and prosperity. So proud ❤

Came back to watch this again. I love being part of your community!

[@natasha_mulusa]

I saw so much of myself in you because our stories are so similar. This is the most vulnerable youve ever been and you didnt have to but this video just made me love you even more Wendy. i think theres something about hearing someones ''story'' that just makes you see a different them. youre such a breathe of fresh air already and we love your calm aura but after hearing this i got to know you and understand you so much better. You are such a blessing and God has had his hand upon you since your mom was pregnant with you. Psalm 139. love and light sis!❤

[@Random-gm1jj]

Big up to your adoptive parents, even though they struggled they wanted you to succeed and made sure you go to school. You are such a strong person am so happy you did not allow circumstances to determine your future❤

This is such a bittersweet story. I am so happy that you are living your Pinterest life. You are such an amazing person

I just bumped in to this video, thank God I had enough time to watch until the end. Powerful story and I personally feel like you can actually write a book about it. There way you told the story it was as if I knew you long time ago, especially because I know most of the places you have been to except EC and the Simply Asia Foods 🤣🤣🤣🤣. I had to google it. I am a new subbie and I am joining the notification gang moving not to skip the add. 😘😘😘😘

[@MaMaKheBunguza]

i subscribed to your channel when you had about 10k subbies and was introduced to your channel by my colleague who i share the love for decor with. my father's family also never cared about me and ive never met any of them. it's ok, we've grown and we made life a success for ourselves. i think the show you watched enext door was Generations which was popular and played daily at 8pm. thank you for trusting us with your story. well done for becoming the woman you are today. God and our mom will continue to guide your journey. Both my parents have died too.

[@mamolokochuene4988]

Wendy you are loved and appreciated just as you are. I am praying for the day you stop apologizing and feeling like you need to explain yourself. You are living your pinterest life and you deserve it! God bless you!

It was long but enjoyable, it was sad but with a happy aspirational ending. We all have childhood trauma but in different degrees and I hope we all find some healing some day

[@nolwazindlovu3850]

I never comment on KZbin but this time I had to. I’ve been a long time subscriber of your channel and appreciated the content and details of yourself and your life that you chose to share with us. Hoping that you didn’t feel compelled to share all you’ve shared with us in this video to accommodate others but it was a conscious decision on your side. May you continue creating content you enjoy and sharing the parts of your life you’re comfortable with sharing. Absolutely love your home and fashion content and wish you success in all the areas of your life

Ooow Wendy 🥺 we are so proud of you as your online family. You have done SO WELL for yourself and you deserve EVERYTHING beautiful that life has to offer. We love you! 🤗🥹♥️♥️

[@KeriReloaded]

Hello Wendy🌸 I'm a new subbie and I just want to comment on your former vegan diet. You might have started it because of body image issues but there's definitely some nuance to it. Being strict and selective with your diet shows mental strength amongst other good qualities. Most people eat whatever the media and society dictates. Saying you had an eating disorder is a bit harsh but I get that you're changing and outgrowing certain things

[@yayatky6520]

Your story a testament of true hard work and God moving all the pieces together. I wish you nothing but success and I’m glad I subscribed to your channel years ago coz you’ve been nothing but an inspiration and now I understand.

[@KZ-sp5rm]

am very sorry about your upbringing Wendy, but look at yourself right now, God was always there for you, I really enjoyed your video ❤❤❤❤

[@leb_luv]

Your story is actually an inspiration to someone and you give a new perspective to forgiveness ❤

[@katlee_ntuli7951]

Aaaaaaw Wendy, how I wish I could just give you a hug 🥹♥️ I am so proud of how far you have come.

[@Adelaide9]

I believe the “we don’t know you” comments are also based on what subbies see on other channels as most KZbinrs start off with that and then just do updates every couple of years so they just have an expectation from all channels, I get how you would not be able to incorporate it into your usual content, I think most ask for it for relation purposes like “oh we have similar backgrounds and she has made it” and it becomes inspirational to others kodwa I don’t doubt that there’s sometimes excessive entitlement and a bit of weird vibes from others ngoba asifani.

[@SebuengShihlomule]

the comment i’ve been looking for… her story will give so many hope. against all odds, you shall rise. She is doing well for herself ❤

[@charmainephasoana6850]

People are so entitled to other people's lives I think they trying to motivate themselves through others....and hence make themselves feel better about their situations that maybe their situations will change coz their fav KZbinrs grew up similar and they are in better positions now And it's unfair to those people becoz they didn't ask to be inspirations. They are just living their lives the way it suits them

[@stephnepuseletso126]

Nice to know you, now I understand why you do show personal things or people close to you Thank you for sharing 😊

[@Ms_shubee]

Thank you for being so vulnerable with us. Your Mom is most definitely proud of you in heaven. You come a long way and look at you now! God bless your foster parents

[@alicegauteng2358]

What a intriguing life story. Despite everything you went through you survived👌🏾🙏🏽 I wish you healing mentally, emotionally, and physically. I really wish that before you have kids you develop a healrhy relationship with food, and your body. Because you really want to stop the cycle. Sending you hugs and kisses from Canada❤

[@faithmsimango6994]

Thank you so much for sharing your life with us Wendy❤ even though you didn't have to. Your story really touched my heart and I understand why you don't talk much about it but I love the fact that through it all your still strong and kind and didn't allow the situation to make you a bitter and resentful person ❤

I can relate in terms of: 1. fighting a lot as a kid and bullying other kids then feeling bad about it as an adult 2. Not liking or cutting off certain family members 3. Body Dismorphia since high school. I was a size uk 4 (On the thinner side of the spectrum) but I used to stop eating to lose weight. Oh it continued and to this day I struggle and I am a uk 8 now 4. Computer science (But I stopped midway due to money) but now I employ software engineers (Life is funny) 5. lol also I tried connecting to my mums sister too because she looked so much like my mum but she acted super distant, wasn't intrested as well. 6. Oh and also I lost the glue that used to make going home worth it so I consider myself as someone with no home. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with us today
