00:03:01.440
the way I do every night and then I went to find my dog to get some comfort and cuddles and love
00:03:05.960
but unfortunately he wants nothing to do with me so um I just forced it upon him anyway and
00:03:09.920
i played animal crossing and i'm getting the island all decorated for halloween look at that
00:03:13.920
and then i stared into the mirror contemplating life yeah notice how you could provide value at
00:03:20.320
her parents house you know what i mean like cook help out i read and but she's just showing being
00:03:27.680
a burden to everyone it's just this idea that women are like nurturing is such a i like don't
00:03:32.480
even know how we got away with that lie for so long you have the privilege to move back home
00:03:36.880
and reset for a bit there is nothing to be embarrassed about i moved back home to florida
00:03:41.360
and moved in with my parents at 28 years old after living on my own for two years in san diego
00:03:46.800
i was so scared to make the move back home i was afraid of what people were gonna think of me i
00:03:51.440
thought people were gonna think i was a failure and honestly for the first couple of months i
00:03:55.760
did feel like a failure i really struggled to adjust coming back home and even though it was
00:04:00.560
so hard to make the decision to come home it was the best thing i ever did for myself because it's
00:04:05.840
it's been almost a year and my life has completely changed. I've been able to lose 30 pounds. I've
00:04:11.660
paid over $20,000 of debt. I am working my dream job and I've also been able to grow my YouTube
00:04:17.960
channel and focus on my content creation. I will say moving home is not, I'm kind of making fun
00:04:23.880
of them obviously, but it's really not a bad idea if you need to like fix your life a little bit.
00:04:29.680
I moved home when I was demonetized and when I quit my sales job, um, to, cause it's a long
00:04:36.120
story. I was going to go overseas to play volleyball in England and then COVID canceled
00:04:42.600
the season. So I'd already quit my job because the plan was I'd have like two months hanging
00:04:47.880
out with the parents and then I'm going to go overseas. I don't know when I'll see you guys
00:04:50.900
next. Um, and then, and then COVID, uh, so I ended up at home for like a year and like two
00:04:58.300
months but my dad was so awesome he said if you want to try the youtube thing try it and i was
00:05:04.300
like it dad let's let's it book it i genuinely could not be happier and more fulfilled as myself
00:05:12.220
and even though it was so difficult to start all over again and you know it was definitely a hit
00:05:18.380
to my ego after living on your own to then going ego hits are good though i'm a way better person
00:05:24.060
now i thought i was so awesome when i got all those subscribers and i became this big youtuber
00:05:29.420
i thought i was awesome and getting it taken away was kind of the best thing that happened to me
00:05:33.740
because i just i needed an ego hit i still think i'm awesome i won't lie i know the internet hates
00:05:39.420
me i know but i i do i am a little goaded like i i don't want to say i'm the goat but like i mean
00:05:47.900
would it be would it be the wrong word back home and living under your parents roof like it is
00:05:54.560
definitely an ego hit but if that's what you need to do in order to reset for a little bit and find
00:06:00.160
stability or focus on yourself on your goals whatever it is that you need to do and you have
00:06:04.680
the privilege to do so there is nothing to be embarrassed about all right i'm gonna tell you
00:06:09.780
guys right now just move home just move back home i'm 29 years old 29 years old i just moved
00:06:14.780
from living in the city by myself Chicago to the suburbs in my parents house and my parents don't
00:06:22.120
have a huge big fancy house you know we're not rich or anything like that but to have the
00:06:27.300
opportunity to live at home and not be so stressed out all the time about paying two thousand dollars
00:06:34.820
a month in rent it's priceless it's priceless do you guys know how much money I have now
00:06:40.040
how many things i can do okay i could go get botox anytime i want i could buy a house in
00:06:46.460
two years if i wanted it's not a bad look it's better than sex work but i what i am showing you
00:06:53.060
is that women would rather move home with their parents than be married women like women really
00:06:58.420
crave like basically living a lifestyle we can't pay for i mean i know men crave it too but they
00:07:05.960
can just like be happy but we just you know okay I just woke up so ignore my bed head and I'm
00:07:11.780
obviously wearing my Grinch PJs and it's November 3rd obviously naturally and if you've been
00:07:17.160
following all along you guys know that I just moved so this is quite literally the only piece
00:07:22.080
of furniture that I currently own thankfully a couch is being delivered in a couple days but I
00:07:28.240
was just sitting here and I got the urge to come on here and just chit chat and I kind of wanted
00:07:33.040
to give you guys like an update on my life especially the past couple months um and why
00:07:39.320
this move happened and why i felt like it was the right time so i for the summer moved into my
00:07:45.720
parents place i had a couple trips not a couple i actually had a lot of trips planned this summer
00:07:50.800
i was also doing some house sitting for my parents for a month so at the time the how it all worked
00:07:56.560
out was i would have had one week to pack my old place and then find a place to move into within
00:08:02.740
one week and then go on holiday for the rest of summer, essentially. And my parents were like,
00:08:08.200
Bailey, why don't you just put all your stuff in storage, slow down, live your best life this
00:08:12.900
summer, travel. You're going to be like house slash dog sitting for us anyways. And then you
00:08:17.480
could revisit where you want to move in the fall. And I previously shared that I didn't really know
00:08:23.480
where I wanted to be for this next chapter. I didn't know if I wanted to move to Toronto. I
00:08:28.720
I didn't know if I wanted to do a New York moment.
00:08:30.720
I didn't know if I, I didn't know where I wanted to go.
00:08:41.740
now that I am in my new apartment and also some contacts.
00:08:47.840
So it was really important to me to take my time
00:08:52.940
and Rufus and Scooter because they're literally my world.
00:08:56.720
finally found the most perfect spot, which I have shared with you guys. And I'm so excited to like,
00:09:01.340
just, I don't know, be a little more maybe vulnerable or transparent, especially on this
00:09:05.980
platform and really just show you an insight to my life and, um, stuff that's like less filtered,
00:09:12.220
like currently the look that's going on right now. So anyways, I'm sitting here having my morning
00:09:17.580
coffee and I was just thinking to myself, I was like, you know what? I bet there's a lot of other
00:09:21.820
people that are maybe in like a really big transitional period in their life. They're
00:09:26.000
going through it and it had me thinking that i am so grateful that i got to pause breathe and
00:09:34.640
live with my parents and it's such a blessing and i really don't think that it should be a taboo
00:09:39.720
topic and it should be nothing that you are embarrassed yeah because usually what happens
00:09:44.880
when we move to the cities rack up debt from college and just overspending like living beyond
00:09:50.220
their means in the cities they want to go on trips they want to go to parties you know they
00:09:54.760
want to eat out all the time so they rack up a bunch of debt and then someone has to pay for it
00:09:59.500
it's not going to be us ever you know it's going to be a man so either their father or their their
00:10:05.080
simp or whatever about and it had me thinking and you got to understand these decisions are rewarded
00:10:11.800
and from a female perspective um it's women's choice is to do sex work or sleep with a man
00:10:18.900
they're just not attracted to and they only we only want to do that if we're getting paid
00:10:23.860
you know man maybe i should have shared my process but i think at the time i myself was like
00:10:30.260
going through it and then forever anyways i can't i can't shoot this girl's got to land the plane
00:10:35.080
but all right guys um let me know what you think in the comments make sure you like the video and
00:10:39.780
