I just wanna say, from a fellow ADHD multi-passionate peep... I see you. :) I think it's really brave and amazing that you're sticking with this and giving it all you got. You have an elder Millennial in New England rooting for you from her own little studio and mutli-work gig life. I'm working on my own youtube channel, but I never made it this far, and from someone *trying* to do it watching someone who is *actually* doing it-- f*ck yes. Get it, girl. 🤘🤘

Love the recognition for multipassioniates! Hopefully we can keep seeing more and more peeps representing this kind of lifestyle :)

I am also an engineer *student* and my literal plan after i graduate (next month!!) is to pick up drawing because i feel like i never can as much as i want during school. im actually obsessed with the fact that you're living the life i actually want for myself lol. having a job as an engineer and creating art outside of that. you're making my dreams seems like a near reality girl. your vids are always amazing btw, thank you for this one

The hard work you are putting in is often overlooked by many people, but you are embracing it and going forward with it. Thus, with your work ethic and hard work, it will all pay off tremendously soon!! Continue to keep looking forward and of course taking breaks where needed. P.s. love your videos so much, can't wait till ur shop opens (take ur time :)), and you are a massive inspiration to me!!

Hi ! I am also an illustrator and a dancer, based in Paris :-) it’s the first time I comment and I must say I enjoy your channel very much, so thank you for your videos. I do have a KZfaq channel about dancing and illustration … so I am very curious and I would enjoy hearing you talk more about your dance job, dance routine, and dance shop (if I understood well) would be great I think 💜

@MichelleMonstera 8 ай бұрын

Such a girl boss, doing all the things! One question I have for you: would you want to go full-time in any of your current passions/jobs, or do you like the challenge of trying to balance it all and only having a little bit of time for each (I'm thinking of the full-time artist issue: always feeling pressured to create new things and no time for inspiration)

@tofugoob 8 ай бұрын

I'm not totally sure, I think I like having a part-time job for now so I don't feel stressed out when it comes to my creative stuff making me money! but that could totally change in the future who knows :)

I am also an engineer (software engineer) for my primary job but a part time artist as well (mainly jewelry right now). I used to make slime and it was more hours per week as my day job sometimes and it was exhausting. It's hard being an artist because you pretty much need to have two jobs all the time. Also, I'm curious what kind of engineering you do.

@HumdrumCurio 8 ай бұрын

Being a dancer you probably already know this, but just in case you were like me and forgot after years of exercise: if your knees are hurting after a brisk walk that normally wouldn’t bother you, check your shoes. They may be worn down and your knees are telling you about it. That and some compression calf sleeves (because I hate wearing compression socks when I’m not laying down) and my knees are much happier 😁

@tofugoob 8 ай бұрын

Oooo okay I have heard the shoes advice but not compression socks I should look into that! Might help my messed up feet and ankles?? Maybe? Worth a shot hehe
