I love how genuine you are Gittemary, and how you teach me to not be so harsh on myself in terms of body image and zero waste. You seem to never preach and you don't judge others who are trying. I'm far from zero waste and I am not vegan, but I have adopted small changes here and there. Thank you for also always being so open about your sponsors. Keep it up girl!!

You look so comfortable and settled now, its great to see. It takes work to have compassion for our past selves and the imperfect ways that we've done things. Thanks for not just trying to distance yourself from the old videos and using them as a learning/discussion point.

@kaleighpledger6389 Жыл бұрын

Loved this! I think so often we are afraid to admit there was a time where we did something “wrong”, or simply didn’t have as much information as we do now. I loved this method of confronting that rather than just deleting everything that might not fit in to where you stand today.

I started out watching you in 2017 and your videos were so helpful for me back then, trying to start my own zero waste journey! I kinda lost track and found you again in 2021, only I didn't realize you were the same person or channel for the first few videos probably because your style had changed so much. I have to say I loved your videos in the past and today. I really enjoy how you've evolved and branched out from zero waste to general sustainability and I thoroughly enjoy your videos, they are so well researched and really important topics, thank you so much!

@kat_thefruitbat Жыл бұрын

I appreciate the constructive / positive ways you evaluate your past self and respond with how you have evolved + your current points of view. This illustrates how important it is to always keep an open mind and seek new ideas/knowledge- it’s how we avoid stagnation and continually evolve! 😊 Also, I just watched your TEDx talk through the link on your website! I just had to comment and congratulate you on an incredible job well done!!! I really enjoyed it- it had a great flow and it was engaging (just like your videos!). It was such a good talk and you were calm, cool, and collected throughout. Congratulations on this AND YOUR BOOK, which I will be purchasing ASAP!! 🙀👏🤗❤️

First time commenting, even though I follow your channel from a long time. First, I have to say that almost all the time I watch your videos while I work (sometimes my job gets a little repetitive lol) and I have learned A LOT 😀you are one of the reasons I decided to take small steps towards a zero waste lifestyle and teach my daughter and husband about it. Also, I try to teach these things in my channel and my Instagram. Thank you, and greetings from Guatemala! 💜 P.S. Can't wait to read your new book!

I like this type of video, but it would be better if you paused the video when you want to talk, just a litle bit hard to understand soemtimes

@fraustr.7861 Жыл бұрын

i like this sort of video and like that you want to look kindly at your younger self at the beginning. honestly i still sometimes got quite a "self-bashing-vibe", when you talk about the canvas bags for example. i would love to see more videos, it would be nice if you could pause the video instead of having two audio-lines, because it makes it really difficult to understand any of them. i also think that talking about tiny tips regarding zero waste was different 7 years ago because then there were many people who knew nothing about this topic so you had to be more detailed! today, noone wants to hear influencers talking about using a canvas bag for 10 minutes, but i know that my younger self would have loved that little canvas bag haul etc.
