Hi Kalyn, I'm not sure if you will ever read this comment and I usually only use youtube to watch old tennis clips, so I'm a little out of my element here. But I just came across another youtuber's very well made documentary, analyzing and giving background information on everything that happened with your koze brand, how it was basically stolen from you and how you handled it all (which was the most impressive and heart-breaking part to me). When I saw you authentically summarizing what happened and how you very well could sue that thief and be compensated for your rebranding expenses, and yet you still chose to wash your hands clean from the situation because you don't want to have any of that energy on you, I couldn't help but feel "proud" of you and inspired by you. Many people preach to be the bigger person and that not all money is good money, etc. But here you are, actually backing these words up, living by your own principles and standing for your convictions. Unfortunately, my English is not good enough to express how extremely impressive and admirable and classy I find you. If I were in your situation, I would have probably been angrier or more disappointed and maybe even petty and out for revenge. I would have wanted to confront this malicious thief and I would have wanted justice. I wish one day, I can be as good a person as you are. For you to have such steadfast morals and such a clear vision of who you are and how you want to live your life with your head held high, says so much about your character. If karma exists, I am very sure, that only good things will come to you. You deserve the best because your heart is pure. And though it may not be much, you just gained one more subscriber in me. (I hope this was not too incoherent)

when you talked about insecurity in your job and the way the digital world is progressing, i could understand that so well. but i just wanted to say that you offer the only place on the internet where i feel 100% welcome, fully accepted, fully at peace, the only place that is slow and heartfelt and loving and restful enough for my brain to really shut down when consuming digital entertainment. i value this space you have created infinitely, as well as the community that has gathered here. i find it to be so utterly superior to fast-paced tiktoks or diffusive, negative heaps of people gathering just for one video. this is a community. the people here have taught me things, the people here have comforted me. i know i have found like-minded people here. just for the sake of that, i am so incredibly grateful to have found you. but it’s not by chance that you have gathered such a beautiful and loving community, it is because you are and you radiate those things! of course, i wish you well on whatever journey you impart on, but i am selfishly hoping you will stick around a little (or a lot!) longer. this is my digital happy place, my restful bubble.

I've been watching Kayln since my early twenties when I was trying to figure out what adulthood was "supposed" to look like. Kayln's videos helped and encouraged me to define that for myself which I am forever grateful for. Though her content doesn't align with my current stage in life as much anymore, I love seeing all of the success she's having and I appreciate that her content continues to be general enough that I can still take things from it (plus the sound of her voice in the background continues to be reassuring lol). Thanks to Kayln for sticking with content creation despite all of the ups and downs. My life was simply made better having found her channel when I did.

On the insecurity of your job, I like the part where you said you just have to trust that things will work out, just like you had to trust that you would not be alone and find your person and start a family. I wish you all the best 🌠on all and any paths you choose for yourself. And i'm grateful you still choose to share with us despite the uncertainty you feel. Enjoy your mat leave💞

Pregnancy depression is a thing, pay close attention and make sure Ryan pays close attention to how you’re feeling postpartum ❤ I so understand what you mean about not feeling like you’ve developed a connection with your baby like you did during your first pregnancy. I felt the same. I had a really busy life during my second pregnancy, started a new job halfway through and everything. When it was all done, I felt like I’d missed the pregnancy because work and raising a toddler took priority throughout. But that did not hinder my connection to my baby in the least and it’ll be the same for you.

I'm so early! I've been watching since the Toronto apartment and just want to say thank you for being you and a constant source of inspiration and calm for me

As a fellow mother who experienced postpartum depression/anxiety - trust your intuition ❤ You are the best expert on yourself. Tell your support system! Lady, that does not sound like “middle child syndrome,” it sounds like awareness of how you were impacted as a child by your family of origin and desiring to not pass on generational trauma. That is not being a middle child, it sounds like wise mind and flexible mind (DBT + RODBT), and that you want the best for yourself and family ❤ You are not alone my dear ❤

New era for social media or not, I will still continue to watch your content no matter what, so please keep doing you! ❤ And no investing for me either! I have no time to invest learning about investing. 😁

Can you do a video on how much social media has changed. It makes me sooooo sad and I talk about it with my friends all the time about how the internet used to be so fun and creative and connecting and now everything is clickbait. I don't trust many creators on youtube besides of the ones I've been following for the past 10 years... would love a whole video on this topic.i would also like to say I think the opposite of you I think the internet needs you and people like you more than ever.thank you for always being authentic caring thoughtful and inspiring.

I am quite a bit older than you are, 44 to be precise. I can't believe you even have job insecurities, I have been watching you for so long. And I have always been looking up to you in every phase of your life. For being who you are. For creating this beautiful, amazing and heart warming, authentic and deep content and sharing parts of your life with us. I wish I knew what my reason for being here is, I left a job after ten years due to burnout and depression. Now I am not sure what the future will bring and that frightens me a lot. I see you have so much joy for the doula certification and every woman would be glad to have you as a doula, someone so respectful and loving and sensitive!

How did you become so down to earth and just radiate positivity? I'm a mum of 3 and I feel like I'm living in a rat race, a constant state of stress. Constantly loosing it, hating myself and not feeling good enough. How did you learn to just be enough?

I’ve been watching for 10 years! Since when you lived with your bestie all those years ago. Your videos feel like home. I love your aura and now watching you grow into your family, home. I feel so much comfort in your videos, it takes me back. You’re just such an incredible person and feel like a life long friend? God the internet is weird and wonderful. All the best for the birth of your second child! Enjoy your WELL deserved Mat leave !!!!! Take care xxx

I wish there was more content like yours. I hope you see that your content has such a high value to so many and definitely has it's place here🧡

Thank you for sitting in your vulnerability with us 🙏🏽 As someone who has watched you for over 7+ years, I have always felt a profound connection to your content and watching your growth. You have inspired me, motivated me, guided me, comforted me, and always given me space to feel seen and heard. I truly appreciate all that you do and all these stages/ seasons of your life 🩵

You belongggg. No matter what you're creating, I will watch. You're one of my favorite creators/youtubers ❤

I've been watching you since 2017 I'm so proud of you and the wonderful woman you've become. Thank you for all the amazing videos ❤

I just realised that probably I won’t be 70 years old and still watching your content. I will be very sad when you decide to step down from what you do, but I just wanted to let you know that I will probably never forget you or your content. And maybe when I am 70 hopefully KZfaq will still exist as a platform and I’ll be able to come back to your videos and remember this current chapter of my life. Don’t be scared, trust the future. I really believe you will be just fine in every next chapter ❤

I think the one thing I like most about you and your content is that you will always do what your heart and soul tells you to do. I love your authenticity, I would love to follow your journey and don’t see it as a bad thing that you don’t follow new trends. It’s so comforting to just hear you talk about what feels right for you and think about how your opinion could enrich / apply to my life (even tho we are at completely different stages of life) ❤️❤️

The second baby is so different than the first, especially in the way that life feels more rushed. I can understand how that would be hard, but I assure you, the 2nd integrates into life much more easily and it's beautiful in a different way. It's not the same. It's its whole own world, and it's just as much, if not more, beautiful. 💜 You're an amazing mom. Take care of yourself. 💜

Hey Kalyn, I felt so sad hearing you say that you feel like you don't belong to the internet anymore, because you don't feel yourself fitting to these trends and all. In my opinion, if anyone should be on the internet it's you. You are one of the few people left on the internet who live life like it is supposed to be. You are connected to yourself and to earth, and you show people that life can be something else than materialistic, that happiness does not come from such things. You truly are a light here and something else and if anyone should stay it should be you. In all my years on KZfaq you're the only consistent thing that I want to follow and hopefully you will stick around for years to come! You truly mean something to me and to a lot of other people

Keep doing you, Kalyn. The world right now is absolutely saturated with the opposite of what you embody. Your voice is needed, now more than ever! Much love x

Not you mentioning "it won't be like this for long" and "you're gonna miss this" while I'm taking a break from helping my oldest sort clothes for middle school. I swear I was folding toddler clothes just yesterday. The household background noise on my break is video games and phone calls with friends instead of building blocks and the baby crying after a nap. On one hand, it's great that I've got time to be more myself than just mom these days, but man. That went too fast.

With regards to having kids in a messed up world…I struggled with this for a long time but what I realised is that in the big picture my children will always face immense difficulties because life, regardless of climate change or not, is difficult. In 200 years not me or my children will be around anymore and the point of life wasn’t to have no problems, it’s imo to fully realise your spiritual essence through being human. And it’s to hopefully financially and emotionally equip my children with finding happiness regardless and they might even make a positive difference just as I am trying to. I believe that people who really want kids are the ones who will provide that loving space for their kids so if life picked you to have kids then I don’t think there’s anything wrong with having them.

Love the vulnerability in this talk ❤ felt very connected to you’re answers

I'm definitely gonna miss your Coffee talks but I'm glad you take more of a maternity leave this time 😊

I completely relate to what you said of feeling disconnected to the pregnancy and then feeling guilty. I am 15 weeks pregnant, and have a lot going on at the same time. I wish I could be more grounded and stable for my baby, but at the moment I can’t even be that for myself.

Wishing you a peaceful break on maternity leave with your family and cant wait to resume the content when your ready to provide it. 💞💞

You're probably one of the few people that has stayed true to themselves and thats a huge reason that I still love you and your content. You're so kind, humble, and just so intelligent. I hope you continue to make whatever content makes YOU happy. I love these kinds of videos.. they're so grounding and reassuring ❤

Same with our house. We have had expensive headaches as well. We had to replace the pipe under the house as it was flooding the laundry room. But I think rewiring the house, was the most expensive one. But I am glad we did. The electrician caught something and prevented a house fire.

I don’t wanna learn investing either sister. If you ever find the time, can you make a video about the feeling of inferiority and how to power through it so as to not block your own blessings? I’m really struggling with that with where I am in my career right now and could just use a pep talk about it, ya know? Love ya girlie

It is so exciting for me to hear you observing your personal limits and scaling back to help you live the life that brings you the most joy!!🎉 Not enough people do this and to have you modeling this for us is amazing ❤ Stay true to yourself lady, we we still be here so long as you want to stay here on KZfaq (I hope you do AND I want everyone to make decisions for themselves and not to please others). I am a mom of a 3.5yo and being able to see your content is such a self-compassion reinforcement (Kristen Neff tender/fierce self-compassion balance). 🙌🏻❤

Just watched a video from 2 yrs ago about finding ”the one” and you spoke my thoughts 😂 i feel so empowered thank you! ❤

These long coffee talks are always my favorite! Loved virtually catching up 💕 My guess for baby #2 is Terron like the male version of Terra for earth 🌍

On investing, a really great book that makes it easy is “I Will Teach You to be Rich” the name makes it feel scammy, but it’s actually a really compassionate book that focuses on building a money foundation for “your rich life” (which looks different for everyone and that’s a core tenet of the book)

Omg those country songs majorly pulled on my pregnant mama heart strings ❤ with a 4 year old and another one on the way next month it's a great reminder that all of this is just a phase and I'm going to miss all of this one day ❤

I absolutely love these videos. You help ground myself and remember we are all human and doing the best we can. I'm in a really hard place with my mental health right now and when I hear your videos it helps ground me. Thank you ❤

Just remember... Change is good! House tour can't wait! I remember when you bought this place it is your home...keep it!

This was beautiful. Thank you for sharing with us. You would be an incredible doula and I would hire you in a second or want to learn from you/ be in your supportive energy. I hope your first 40 days is restorative and everything you and little baby need. Take care. 💕

Being in a stage of life slightly behind you I find your calming energy to be so nurturing. I hope I can be like you someday 💕

I completely exhausted myself in all the wrong directions trying to BE someone on line. I finally feel so aligned with who I'm supposed to be and it's with a much smaller presence but I've never been more fulfilled and excited! I've made more progress slowing down than I did the last 15 years trying to "hustle"

There is and always will be a space for you here 💖

Social media is changing so fast now I feel the same way, I don't have time to stay in the loop and learn all the technologies and juggle home and family. It's not how it was, a small channel could grow before but now it's a much bigger playing field and the algorithm only pushes trends.

I love this so much the topics were really great ❤❤

This is the first of your videos I've seen. I spent my life certain that I'd foster or adopt. The more I learn about those systems, the more certain I've been that I should birth a child as part of my family, and THEN help kids and their families heal& whether or not they live with me permanently. So we're planning to start trying right after our September wedding this year. I'm already taking prenatals. But this week, I've really really felt guilty and scared about bringing more people into this world. And I'm still scared. But I'm so glad to have heard this video right when I need it.

Hi Kalyn, I admire your vulnerability and how connected you are to your emotions as well as accepting of them. Being a content creator can be extremely challenging even for a very secure person to start with. I think it’s ok to feel insecure, it’s inevitable. You’re doing great and I, for one, can say I will be deeply saddened if you do decide to quit creating videos. Statistics will never be able to represent what your creations mean to a lot of us. With love, Lisa

Idk if it's my age but I don't like youtube anymore, I find my feed boring and most videos too. But I am still subscribed to about 5 of you, it gives me cozy vibes whenever you guys upload as if I'm hanging out with an old friend.

I needed this!! Can you talk more about the process of becoming a Doula in Canada? I would love to learn more!

I am not a fan of the mainstream KZfaqrs these days. I love how authentic your content is. I want to get into content creation and strive to make content similar to Eamon and Bec and yourself. Both channels have just such good energy and amazing skills when it comes to content both are so different than the norm. I love to hear that you will always be creating even if it’s In different ways or platforms. You make me feel like we are really friends 😭🫶

My name guess is Landon. Loved this, I’m an old time watcher but haven’t been on KZfaq for some time. This felt like a beautiful catch up ❤

I’m a yoga teacher who is also becoming a doula for the same reason! I’m currently pregnant with my first (38 weeks) and I very much feel that support is so needed for women. Also- I’m not great with investing either, but my husband is. He said a great way to start investing/diversifying is by buying metals (like silver). That way all your money isn’t just in savings. And it’s very simple, try to buy when the value is low and sell when it’s high, or just hold because it’s always valuable 🙂

I am doing great! I have gotten to travel, make new friends, and I just got engaged! I understand not feeling stability in work. Even as a teacher I have doubts.

I’m so the same when it comes to investing. It’s a goal of mine to make an appointment with my bank this year and have someone help walk me through everything because I want to do so much more with the money I have but I’m so intimidated by the world of finance! And I hate to admit that because, like you said, it feels like everyone around me knows everything and I just feel dumb! So thank you for answering that question 💕

I feel the same way about investing. Big "should", but also big "I really don't wanna" :')

As always, thank you for sharing ❤️

If you’re interested in investing but don’t have the time to learn how to do in on your own right now, you could open a portfolio with a financial advisor! They take a small cut because they do all the work, but it’s a way to get your foot in the door with very minimal effort on your end, and start seeing some growth. You can always play around with the portfolio down the road if you find you do have more time and want to be more involved. Just a thought!

I am in a bit of transition period as of now (okay a lot 😂) but I’m also trying to go with the flow because I am definitely feeling the lows and really wish I could be excited. As a second/ middle child, I can’t empathise with expecting more from urself for this baby …but I know it ll all be good with little faith & hope ❤.Always here to support you with evg!!

I loved this video. I love catch up/ Q&A videos... But I totally get the reno situation haha. WE've been slowly renovating our house for two years and our bed rooms are currently being done and we're in our office until their done and office is in our living room.... and baby on the way in august... So i'm a little stressed but it makes me feel better that baby wont need a room until their a few months at least :) We also really love our home and we just want our home to function better and be more practical we don't necessarily need more room we just need our home to be more functional and the same thing for us our home was just patch worked together that we're fixing and moving and chasing now lol

For the last question, I would like to share that your channel is one of the only one I feel like it is a safe and balanced one....I leave your videos feeling grounded (if that is even possible hehe). Maybe it is just your vibe that pass through but anyway I do not think that in this time your channel and content are not needed, quite the opposite actually 😊❤

Hang in there girl ♥️♥️♥️

Just start sending a small percentage, maybe 5% to start, of your income into index funds. Like with Vanguard or Schwab. Ramit Sethi's book I Will Teach You to Be Rich is a great read!

totally feel that not having any interest in investing/stocks but i've always felt like I should!

Omg my entire life I have said I really like this particular boy name which no one I have ever met or heard of has, which is very similar to Easton & is inspired by the earth. I won't say what it is just in case but if it is the same name I have in my mind that would be insane!!

I wish you a peaceful maternity leave. You seem like such a lovely person and I wish you the best. Do you have a Q&A where you talk about how you met your partner?

Are you having an ayurvedic postpartum? I would definitely love to hear more if so ❤❤❤

i used to be scared of investing as well. but now we just put a monthly amount into an etf and thats it

the investing answer hit lol, i just know i should but don’t actually want to put the work in to do it lmfao

why are you boycotting starbucks if you dont mind sharing?

If you know you should invest / get smarter about money and stocks but you really don’t want to… then I’d recommend reading “No Worries” by Jared Dillian. It’s short, funny, easy to grasp, and to the point. His goal is that if you implement this advice, you won’t have to think about money.

❤❤❤❤❤

Look into a tax fee savings account. Very easy way to start 🥰 please make sure you’re set for retirement. A lot of people leave it until it’s too late!

Why were you doing kitchen reno?? It looked fine, or the pluming was messed up?

Nowadays every KZfaqr I've been following and making valuable content are deciding to leave because they feel like they do not fit anymore. This is said cause they leave space for the trash content that is mass-produced. Would be nice if it was possible to hang around on this chill corner of the internet in the future.

I prefer Ur vlogs, there are too many podcasts now
