When you realize all that she have said in this video is what she wanted someone else to tell her😭

omg... this is exactly what i need!!! i was with a friend an hour ago and we talked about being the best versions of ourselves. recently i realized how i spend too much time daydreaming but i don't do anything abt it bc i just don't believe in me. i just don't view the things i dream about possible.

THIS GIRL IS WHY IM SO MOTIVATED EVERY SINGLE DAY

when you teared up saying "yeah, i think she really might be proud of me", that hit me so hard. I love you. You are like the closest to who i wanna live like. Keep making content. Glad to have found you. You legit calm my anxiety down sometimes.

she RESPECTFULLY questioned my whole fucking experience (damn)

“You don’t need to find out who you are, you need to create who you want to be.” ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I loved that.

The line "your life is never a finish line, you are going to keep living, once you turn 18 you will turn 19, 20, 21, 22" hit me like a ton of bricks. I just turned 18 and I think I needed to hear it so thank you. Also I'm so proud of you and how far you've come

I'm 54, Via, and each and every one of your videos inspires me and teaches me something. I would be proud to be your mom. You rocked it, friend. Here's to all of the adventures ahead in 2024. I can't wait to see where life brings you.

The line that really got to me was “I feel empty”. There’s so many humanly things I want for myself but I have so much fear of not being enough. Lost friends cus I’m not great or fun enough, got fired cus I’m not skilled enough, now burnt my food cus I’m not good enough to cook. It came to the point of paralysis, the self motivation is all that’s left. So this video was so helpful to realize I need that self preservation > self love. Doing things for yourself is the biggest source of self motivation that I could tap into.

"If you think i'm doing too much, maybe you're not doing enough" I LOVED THAT

not me crying over a stranger I barely know on the internet in a fucking daylight 😭😭😭😭 It's crazy how everything you said resonates so much with me. I was turning 24 in 2023, and I have many fears of going to the adult phase where I have responsibilities. 2023 was also my transformative year, I couldn't be more happy and healthy, both physically and emotionally. I finally gathered up myself to do things that I need to do, practicing positive habits, I'm not afraid of people's thoughts again, and what's more important is, I finally can find myself again. I subscribed to your channel in the middle of 2023 because I find your thoughts are calming me. I feel like I'm not alone and sometimes I feel like I get advice from my closest friend. I'm so glad to have survived this year, and one thing that contributes is you and many other positive influencers. Thankyou for being so open about yourself, Via. Your words mean so much to me personally

I am so happy for you. You put into words everything that I have experienced. I wasted about 40 years of my life "living up to expectations". benefitting other people and NOT doing the things I wanted to do. Now I am 49 and am finally trying to LIVE my life. But I can never get that time back. It's gone forever. And I got ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for it. Young people - PLEASE - get out there and do what you want. Forget your parents. Forget society. What other people think of you doesn't matter. LIVE YOUR LIFE. Forget what other people "expect" of you. They are just selfish, narcissistic A-holes trying to steal your time, money and energy for their own benefit. They already had their turn. I learned that 40 years too late. I wish I had known earlier. Don't make the same mistake I made. Go out and LIVE YOUR LIFE.

It felt good to even read the title of this video at a time when I was feeling completely insecure. Thank you Via. I'm far away from you but I feel like your channel is a safe place

I turn 18 on the 2 of January and iv spent my life daydreaming all the time, and you made me realize how I can live how I want even if I’m scared of something such as a simple walk or going to a cafe.. I want to live my life the way I want because I want it!

Thanks to you, Via. We are really proud of you. Personally, you made a pretty bad year much better And i hope 2024 treats all of us also much better. So thank you 💕

I needed this. Ive had a sort of panic attack today after a long time, and that's bc I felt such a failure. People around me makes me pressure, don't get at all my personality, my efforts, my problems. They just want me to do whatever job and move out, which I want to do but it's not so easy. I dont want to be stuck in a job I don't like, rents are very high and I don't tell anyone about my creative projects cause they wouldn't believe in them anyway. So I work a lot on them or developing some skills but they think I do nothing and waste time just bc I dont share all of that and I don't wake up everyday at 8 am to go to work. I hate the fact that im being judged anyway, no matter what, just bc Im 31, single, childless and i don't work a corporate job. Noone cares abt the fact that im the first one in the family to have 2 diplomas and 2 degrees, that I learned a number of skills and languages which they only dream of. I also was very unlucky regarding my health but its not my fault if I have those issues. I dont value what they value, I dont want the life they all had.

Omg via I'm not a big commenter but this was a great video! Honestly your channel has inspired me in so many ways like realising its ok to do things alone, that not being ok is a very human thing, and I am so glad I found this channel! I think your younger self and all your supporters too are proud of you and its great to hear youre able to do this full time. And if you decide it's not for you, then that's just it, no need for reason, this life is yours, same goes for everyone too. I don't like to idolise online people but i have really related to your experiences and your videos have been really fitting advice for me, so thank you for being you and have a great 2024 ❤

I AM SO PROUD OF YOU. Content Creator I still remember when you were making your video diary & had 5 videos to your name. I am so proud of VIA LI. Because of this video, I'm dropping out of college & becoming a musical artist this next year. I was gonna become a therapist by my family's standards. You inspired so much this year and Ima go into next year on top.

as someone who virtually has no one genuine to lean on, i plan on making some major changes onto myself this year. watching you has somewhat helped me achieve a slightly clearer understanding of myself and my surroundings, hence thank you.

Via! 2023 was a difficult year for me, and I’m being dead serious when I say that watching your videos made me cope with it. I’m so happy that you chose to make videos because you have no idea how much it helps people like me. So Thank you for helping me every week, with your journal entries and vlogs. I don’t think I can honestly thank you enough. :,) ❤❤

look. she is literally speaking to my inner child. she‘s slapping the little me so hard with her words, it’s so crazy, to see that she actually tells us about her feelings. I felt this on so many levels, I cant even express, how proud I am. I’m so proud of you girl. and Im soo so thankful that you’re making these videos, making things YOU want, making this biggg step. even if it’s terrifying. you did this, and we can too. thank you for sharing, love you

This inspired me to do an Accounting major instead of Computer Science. Just scheduled an appointment with my counselor at community college. They both pay well, and I’m a 1st Gen college student. My parents didn’t want me to go to college, just to stay home and get married off. But I didn’t want my 20s to start like that. So I moved out. I cannot see myself sitting in front of a computer just…coding all day. No shame to those who like CS, but I was gonna do it for the money. And I just can’t do it. I just can’t. I’m not gonna do four years of a major I hate just to be miserable and eventually stuck in a cycle. Thank you for this encouragement, Vi. As Miles Morales once said: “Nah. Imma do my own thing.” ❤

hi. let me just say I've never seen anything so raw, real, genuine, heart-warming like this. I was feeling lost these past few days and you just changed the narrative. I'm going to take a good look at myself today and start 2024 strong. thank you for existing and for being a part of my life, via 😭

i plan on making some majar changes in my life in 2024, thank you via for being here with us, you really help a lot of us and we're so grateful for that, seeing you cry and tear up made me the same as well, i hope everyone is proud of themselves and i geuniunly wish you all a happy new year, do whatever you guys want to and believe in yourself, i love you guys x

This is EXACTLY how I felt concluding 2023. I’m so tired of not going after what is in my heart! Life is too short not to pursue what’s on your heart! Once again, this video demonstrates why I subscribed. You bring out thoughts that many of us feel but keep to ourselves. Happy New Year!

you've genuinely being a good energy for me this year, i feel a little bit silly saying that but it's true. i'm slightly older than you (26) but i struggle with finding myself and finding my purpose. watching you be brave and getting out your comfort zone really boosted me to do the same this year. you're a good person with great values i hope 2024 will be good to you (and me). i can't wait to see what's next for you. thank you for being my buddy this year 🤍

I'm feeling like I've lived for everything and everyone else, but not for myself. People want you to become like them. But in the process, I completely lost myself. As a conseqence, I've been truly depressed and unmotivated. I discovered your video today, and something 'clicked': I was like: 'okay, if I HAVE to live, I'm going to live the way I want.' What's the point of being unhappy my whole life?'

This video was so important!! It’s difficult trying to become your own person when your entire life has been dictated to you by others, and trying to extract your own dreams from theirs is … difficult, to put it lightly. Having someone just *tell* us that it’s OK to be ‘selfish’, it’s OK and normal to not have things work out perfectly, is such a breath of fresh air!!

I needed this! 2023 was hard mentally for me and I want to start prioritizing myself in 2024. The part where you talked about wanting to impress your younger self really got me. Your videos are truly inspiring. I hope 2024 treats you well bc you deserve all the love and happiness this world has to offer!

'Do you actually want this? Have you been working hard for things that you want or are you doing it to impress people'. I resonate with this so much. I'm actually still not sure if my academic path is what I want to follow or if I'm doing it for other people. I'm pursuing it along side my actual 'wants' currently, but the actual wants are a little unreliable, but I'm still striving for them :)

I didn’t know “you don’t” is all I needed to hear to start my year. We’re so busy achieving other people’s definition of success that we forget what we truly want. What we truly desire. What we TRULY want to be. Let’s at least try to reevaluate ourselves. Do we want this? If not, THEN WHAT? also, thanks via. that was definitely my wake up call. i really have great admiration on what you do and how you influence other people. please know that you are very much appreciated🧡

BEST WAY TO END THE YEAR IS WATCHING VIA OMG 🎉🎉🎉 happy new year via! i hope this year treats you well and i can't wait to hear, watch and know about it through your vlogs!

Omg this is so true... Everything you said. I took a gap year this year after finishing high school, and i have accomplished none of my actual dreams... I have a very strict father, and i have always been afraid to disappoint him. But when high school finished, i really wanted to take a gap year, and travel, and focus on myself. But even then i was too scared, and i have accomplished absolutely nothing, and i'm sick of it. I have waited my whole life for the moment where "I could do what i wanted and finally travel", but i didn't. But now i will! I have nothing left where i live. My roommate is moving out. This is my chance and i'll take it!

Hearing you talk and reflect, while learning to accept many things has helped me with the ability to tackle my own issues. You'v helped me find the comfort I needed and showed that I'm not alone in my feelings. Thank you, I hope 2024 works out well for you.

I wish I felt like I had nothing to lose....it holds me back from doing things I want because I'm so scared of anything going wrong. I went the route to try and make more friends, I got at least 1 of 2 people to stick with me for the long run. It's hard because the only way I make them is through my classes so far, and once that is done...I don't know what to do with myself. Someone asked me what my dreams are.....I guess I actually do have some, but I yeah, I feel like my trajectory within the next year will be similar 😂 I'm going to be held back a bit by student loans, but I will try to come out of my shell eventually....I HOPE! anyways, happy new year guys!

Something I STILL struggle to learn and teach myself is that you CANNOT compare your progress to others. You're just going to tire yourself out trying to catch up to others, so instead, move at your own pace. If you have a goal, move at your own pace, because when you rush, u either tire yourself out or make a lot of mistake (many of which can be fatal mistakes to your goal). As long as you keep going, you CAN'T fall behind, so don't worry about where every one else is. To everyone in this comment section, and to Via too, YOU GOT THIS!! You're doing awesome. Go and KEEP GOING and see you at the finish line 😉

I love how intense the way you talk about this is, it's so inspiring

when u cried i sobbed bro

Literally, I have been ignoring this video for a couple of months now but it found me again at the right time! I have always wanted to be a content creator, but had always thought that I would be too “try hard” if I posted content consistently and I’ll be a “influencer wannabe.” But at the end of the day, and when I do achieve it, that’s when they believe me and congratulate me. So why tf do I care what they are saying now? If I truly want it, that’s all that matters. I was already doing everything to try to achieve what my relatives want me to do and that has not been working out, so why don’t I try to do everything I can to actually achieve something that I want?!?! “There is no point in life if you are not chasing your dreams” LIKE FACTS! WTF is the point then? To just drift through it? We were not born on this earth to just never have our desires validated. It just clicked. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. You don’t know that you just changed my entire life. I’m going to start treating content creation as my full time job and embody the habits of a content creator - manifesting into my reality that identity with consistency.

i found you about three weeks ago and can not stop watching your videos - your videos give me so much comfort and strength. thank you for this video, this was a needed wake up call and it made me tear up to see you cry. thank you for your honesty, i hope you and everybody else who reads this has an amazing start into the new year! xx

Girl I cried, I haven't cried in months and I'm glad I finally cried even if it was just a little, thank you for sharing your journey this year with us. You're amazing for doing this and for inspiring many of us to finally give that step in order to change. I'm a really insecure person, I haven't like many sides of myself for many years and I was so sick of everything to be the same every year. This year wasn't the one with biggest changes, but I'm happy I was able to be proud of myself for some little achievements. I wanna believe in myself too. Thank you so much, I really wanna be the girl I've always wanted to be. I'm gonna work hard in 2024. Thank you so much for everything.

I'm 37 and I wanna give you a virtual big hugs. I'm also living and still living for someone else since young and have achieved the goals that someone else wanted. You are exactly who I was when I was 23, not believing in myself, not getting the things that I wanted and feeling a lot of frustrations. But I think you have done so much better coz looking at your previous videos I think you have improved in terms of how you carry yourself, the make-up, the dress, the activities you have done. Although we are stuck in the situation of "living for someone else" and went through hardships, do believe that we have learnt a lot from these experience too, be it going through small little daily routine or handling the emotions of making big change in our lifestyle! All these effort would not go wasted, trust me! This is what I have realised after living as a working adult for someone else for so many years. Most importantly, no one can take all these improvements, experience and joy etc. away from you. So keep living, keep trying and never stop being curious to learn! In a longer term, you will feel the joy and satisfaction coming from what you have learnt from your hard and good days. :) 🤗

i love the anger that's oozing off your voice cause that's exactly how i speak to myself, thanks for the video

I'm 34 and I still don't know what I'm doing 🫠. Loved the sentiment in this video, and love that you figured out in your 20s that you have to LIVE FOR YOURSELF. Don't wait. Thank you for your genuine honesty and for being you Via! Wishing you all the happiness and success in 2024 ❤

I've had a difficult year with a lot of loss and anxiety, but I just want to say that your videos have helped me enormously this year with myself and understanding what I wanted, thank you for making videos and thank you for being you !

"the meaning of life is to experience it" that's what the film "soul" was all about , we think that life has a purpose and we keep looking for our talent/purpose but life is just meant to be lived

The finish line sentiment HITS SO HARD

Happy new year everyone 🥂✨💗💗

Via,I just want to say that thanks for being on youtube and share your thoughts with us. You are helping so many people with this kind of videos,including me ❤

she's a person with a lot of struggles, actually, we all are but when she smiles, her smile lights up my mood. it's like the smile is telling me, "even tho it was hard, see i did it"

these are my last few months of my last year of high school, so there’s a lot of mix of uncertainty, anxiety, dread, excitement and emptiness. especially feels of being overwhelmed with the urge to do some “special” for last senior year but not actually doing much and feeling like i’m not doing enough. if anyone has advice on that or suggestions on what to do, i’d love to know please 🥹. i want to be vlog but i also fear that nobody will care and my efforts will be wasted, in school too. but this video is definitely a needed wake up call. thank you, genuinely. i won’t care what others think (at least, try to)! let’s live an amazing year in 2024 :))

it's so bizarre to feel this way about someone I don't know irl, but I'm so proud of you via :,) I've been watching your videos for a couple of months now, and it's been amazing to grow with you. I'm so proud you are getting closer and closer to your goals, while giving us courage and motivation to do the same. also, i started journaling bc of your videos so thank u for that :) have a great new year and know that we'll be here for and with you

I believe in you, girl. Own and conquer 2024, you can do it!

you never knew how huge your impact is to someone. this is a reminder to do the thing that frightens you but is also the dream u've ever wanted. take a video of urself, write that poem or novel, sing ur heart out, dance in the rhythm of the wind, paint that scenery in ur head, apply to the job that u think isn't for u but ur heart says otherwise. do it. just do it. just like her who didn't believe in herself before, but managed to be courageous enough to chase HER dreams made my tears roll. this sent me voltage of motivation to chase after my aspirations. a truly transformative video. so again, dear stranger. it's your life, own it fully. start now. the clock is ticking, love. you deserve lovely things in life, so do it for yourself. do it for your precious self, the most important person alive in you and for you. : )

this made me cry. i thought id abandoned the dream of designing my ideal life because it just felt so out of reach. this is exactly what i needed to hear to stop trying to tamp down my desires.

this, i really needed it. i'm just feeling really low right now, and i'm ready to start life being 17 and having growing up being so hard. to hear your experience just made me feel very warm and comforted. ill take these words with me and work hard. its always nice to hear words from people older than me and to be supported, even with other people and family members seeing my work on myself as negative and selfishly devilish. lets both work hard and find the good in the difficult times :)) ill be rooting for you! hopefully next year ill be watching your videos in a healthy place, warm and lovely.

Happy 2023 Via! Thank you for sharing your journey with us! Much love and looking forward to 2024

the only true limits are the ones you accept. limitations are perceptions

I have to say, your channel was recommended to me by youtube a few days ago and ive been binge watching your videos since. I've been getting worse mentally, not talking to any friends, and isolating myself. I was about to quit my job and just empty the money i saved to travel because i felt like i didnt deserve any of it. We are the same age, and i feel like we've lived a pretty similar life and it feels like you are idk, the sister i never had ? maybe that's dramatic lmaoo. Anyways, you seem like a genuinely sweet and hardworking person and i hope you are proud of yourself. You made me a little proud of myself too. Thank you 💗

I truly love how I can relate to you. You're like the older sister I never were able to have. You're videos always come when I need, like even this video, I was reflecting on my year and how I didn't achieve any of my goals and the feeling of regret was sinking in and I started hating myself and it was just too much, but watching your video really helped me..

cant express how much I needed to find your channel this year and this video specifically today. Just genuinly, from my heart, thank you.

As humans it is our “purpose” to do what makes our hearts soar, what makes us feel the most connected with ourselves and the universe.

via, it has been so fun to watch your videos over the past year and to see you grow. your channel has genuinely inspired me in SO many ways, but the biggest thing you've really inspired me to do is to embrace being an introvert - to accept that (for as much as i love my family and my people - and i do dearly) it is okay to love being by myself. you have also inspired me to start documenting my own life more and making small videos :) i'm so glad that i found this channel, and i'm so glad that the year has gone well for you. here's to 2024!

this video was soo incredible, we're all super proud of you and will keep following you this next new year

I've been watching your videos since you had less than 10k subs, and I could tell right from the start that you have an amazing talent for storytelling, editing, and connecting with others. So proud of you Via!! You're younger than me but every time I watch your videos, I learn new things haha. Hope 2024 continues to be an amazing year for all of us!!

That's true, struggles do get "harder" as we Grow, But not because it's a punishment or what.. or some unfortunate accidents It's precisely because we've GROWN! When u become more powerful, so does ur challenges. N that's only because u CAN handle it.

Via!! I only discovered your channel a few weeks ago, but once I stumbled across it I knew it was something special. I’ve been unable to stop watching your videos, they motivate me to take control of my life, go outside, and just have fun. I love how you are such an honest vlogger and don’t try to hide the dips in life. You show me that you can still do stuff even if you’re scared, anxious, or tired, and you motivate me to continue to craft the best version of myself. Your vlogs always seem so real, as if you’re toting along your friend for a fun day out. I also love how you show that you can still be silly and have fun while maintaining an aesthetic lifestyle. Anyways, I hope you and anyone reading this has a lovely 2024!!

A life-changing message. Thank you.

i didnt know i need this video until i saw it.. honestly Via, you are saving my life, thank you.

good job via we’re so proud of you

Via, I just want to say thank you so much for your videos. I've been watching you for the last couple of months, and it's been so amazing to see how much you've grown and it's inspired me so much to do that as well. I never really had much of a real-life support system, and seeing your vids every week just feels like I have an older sister who I can come to for advice and just learn to stand up for myself and go out there and do big (or small) things. Something small like going out to grab a boba on my way back from my lectures, or going somewhere to watch a sunset, I wouldn't have been able to do it without your videos. Thank you so much, seriously, your videos mean everything to me. Sending you all my best for 2024

The way i sobbed this entire video. I too have a picture of baby me on my phone screen n hope to make her proud. This felt like a good scolding. As if u dragged me down from my daydreaming into reality n shook me up. This video made me realise i have to do the things im afraid of. Although i know im capable of achieving my dreams i still feel inadequate and scared to become that version of myself. This video gave me the push i needed and i will make myself proud this year. Thank you so much❤and i hope all your dreams come true too✨

Wow this video is awesome... you are out here changing lives if you don't know that already, this was raw and honest.. can't wait to see you thrive more, you give me hope 💞

I’m so proud of you via really. I remember finding your 2022 entry and thinking you didn’t just achieve nothing, following you on instagram and seeing your everyday i could see the tribulations and path of progress seeing you go to a whole country by yourself is probably in itself a whole achievement I could never do but from someone who feared being alone to being by yourself most of the time little via would be extremely proud of you ❤

I'M PROUD OF YOU VIA. HAPPY NEW YEAR.💕

Yay! Via uploaded i love these types of vidoes, you always incourage me to be productive , happy new year btw!❤❤

The intro was soo good and happy early new yearr can't wait to see you in 20244🎉🎉

you're genuinely my favourite content creator, for christmas i got a VHS recorder as your channel inspired me to make videos of my own. whether i post them or not is a different question but the fact that a year later you are actively having an influence in other people's lives, complete strangers from the opposite end of the globe is proof that following your passions regardless of the pressures society or you put on yourself can only lead you down one path, that being success. if you follow your passion you will live without regret in knowing you are choosing to do what makes you happy, and that's the best thing you can do for yourself!

I’ve been watching your videos for months and I noticed how you slowly did everything you said-going to the gym, cooking ur own meals, and how you started showing more enthusiasm? when meeting your friends, and I’m so inspired by these things. And I hope I can grow to be the person I want this year by chasing my dreams. I can’t wait to hear from you again in your new year video! Cheers to 2024, Via! 🥂❤️

hi via, I just checked and it's been 7 months since I discovered your channel. and I can't even put into words how much you helped me in those 7 months. i started journaling more, loving myself more, taking myself to self dates and not feeling ashamed about it. it's all thanks to you. I remember you showing the picture of your little self on your phone screen in one of your old journal entries and I remember you crying while saying 'no one cared about what she wanted' I cried with you then. and today you showed her again and cried because you finally made her proud. I cried with you again, but it was happy tears this time, both yours and mine. just keep doing what you're doing, I'm so proud of you. let's have so many more beautiful memories together. GO BEST FRIEND LIVE YOUR LIFE TO THE FULLEST!🤍🥹

I feel like i watch myself on you. Your channel is the best thing that I discovered this year. Happy new year via!❤

Listening to you kinda being mad at me genuinely almost made me cry, its like im being scold at.. But i honestly need to hear this or else ima just be in my comfort place and saying i dont deserve that and this. Thanks Via, what a life changing words you gave me, it will stuck in my mind as "do it or else". Stay positive and smiling❤️🎀

hii! i usually dont comment but i feel like i need to say how much this channel means to me and you as a person. You are one of the realest out there via and i appreciate it more than i could ever express. This year was also a good one for me, i started to take care more of myself and to notice the little things in life again. And every time that you upload (especially with your journal entries) i feel like i learn something new about myself. You inspire me sm to keep on questioning and wondering and learning. Might i also add that your editing style is so so cute and fun and quirky, lmao. I love it sm. It has been a pleasure to get through this year with you. Happy new year

Watching you achieve your goals/chase your dreams throughout 2023 has filled me with nothing but admiration for you Via. I’m so proud of you! You truly are inspirational. 2023 has to be the best year yet for me and a part of it is because of you. Not putting you on a pedestal or anything like that. But genuinely because you are just like us and seeing you cross things off your bucket list makes it all the more possible for us to do the same for ourselves. It’s very encouraging and motivating. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Thank you for not giving up. Thank you for being you. May 2024 be even better (for everyone!). I believe in you and fully support you! ❤❤❤

Such a wonderful video was so touching ❤️. Thank you ..and your doing incredible !🌸🕊️ 👏I know I discovered your channel only a few months ago but so grateful I did . Appreciate you ! You had me inspired me at the end of this year and also going forward into 2024 . Wish you and everyone here all the persoal growth and success in the world !

YOU THE BEST EVER🤎🤎 HAPPY NEW YEAR

Via has me crying in my room in the morning. I think waking up and watching this in the morning was something I really needed to get the day started. I’ve been feeling lost and not knowing what I’m gonna do in life and it scares me because I wanna make people around me proud so I pressure myself but I find it hard to actually work towards what I want because I just don’t know where to start. Watching this made me feel like my older sister giving me a lesson I so desperately needed. Thank you Via for making videos where you are just being yourself. I watch your videos a lot especially at school to relieve some stress so again thank you for being the person you are. I’m most definitely sure that the little girl on your wallpaper is proud of what you’ve achieved just like I am

Thank you Via for always posting. I'm 19 and so unsure of everything. I'm at a point in my life where it seems like I'm supposed to know what I'm doing but also go out into the world without directions. It's terrifying, but it's comforting to hear you say that it's okay to not have all the answers. For most people it seems like we've all become so hesitant to truly live the lives we want because of fear and the possibility of failure. Seeing you become genuinely happy this year through your success and exploration is truly inspiring. It's motivated me to go after what I want and accomplish what I want. Instead of saying or dreaming of doing something I'm just going to do it! I'm excited for all of your future content! Here's to another year of appreciating each day and living to the fullest!🥳

I discovered u around May this year when I was going through a tough time u had around under 50k subs I'm not sure😅and here u are reaching new heights everyday so grateful to have discovered u in 2023 couldn't have asked for a better way to end the year happy new year Via!!..💞🎉

Via , honestly you inspire me sosoosososo much to do very simple things like for example go outside or journal or cook for myself. You're a really amazing person and thank you for making videos for us

bro why am i cryinggggg T^T I remember when you were at 70k and I found you from your " growing up ugly" video which is honestly a classic at this point at how well you captured the "ugly" kid experience. Im glad you found youre niche and are able to reap the benefits of it because you deserve it!! From one human to another, I'll always be rooting for you :). I hope we can all continue to grow and love in the next year, and I hope all the things we prayed for come true

happy new year, Via! i just wanted to say how you helped me so much in 2023 and this video is exactly what i needed to hear right now and i’m grateful! to be honest, i actually think na i’m really similar to you, so this video helped me a lot. with this, i think i have enough motivation to create a wonderful year filled with precious memories now. a year to know more about myself, what i want, get out of my comfort zone, and have the courage! all your videos were a huge help even though i just started watching you this 2023. but yeah! i just wanted to say thank you!

Now I feel you like a friend 😢😢😢😢 anyways I never missed one of your videos and I'll never will!! Anyways love you via!

I... Via, I've been following you seen the bggining of this year and I honestly can't believe how far you've come. I'm so proud of you! You have been such an inspiration for me this year, especially when things got hard and I loved this video so much I even started crying (note: I don't usually cry because of videos or movies, but this one...), I just loved how you were able to express yourself truthfully, without only showing the good side of everything like most content creator do. Thank you so much for this video and have a happy 2024!
