Your office looks amazing, really love it. I am sure working for yourself is less stressful than teaching. I could be a teacher's assistant but not handle all that you were doing before with really working an insane amount of hours a day. You look so much happier doing what you do now and really hope that you are. Hope you and Billy have a wonderful Valentine's Day.

The random video clips here and there are off-putting for me. I may be the only one who feels this way, I don't know. You produce excellent content. You don't need the silly extra clips. In my opinion they take away from your presentation and look unprofessional. I don't mean to be a "hater". I just felt that it was a constructive criticism and worthy of mentioning just in case others feel this way also.
