New video: I'm becoming a digital nomad in 2026! š®
Seriously, you guys can tell me. Am I crazy for this? Especially with chronic health issues? Or am I lowkey a genius for escaping to sunshine, ocean waves, and delicious food? š
Like maybe Portugal will solve all my problems. Maybe I'll crash out. Either way, I'm going. āļø
Let me know what you think of this one!

Milestone achieved! š„³
Thank you all so much for being here.
I recently purchased a DJI osmo pocket 3 camera, so video and audio quality will be going up SOON. I just have to figure out how to use it lol.
Hope you're having a chill week~

Since so many of you subscribed from my viral short on high dose vitamin D, I made a follow-up video all about my experience and how this protocol truly changed my health journey from suffering to lasting recovery: https://youtu.be/V1xFXb4LoT4
Has vitamin D helped you on your health journey? I would love to hear in comments.
On another note, we just blew past 500 subscribers in the last couple days and are now nearly at 700! Thank you so much, I hope my videos have helped or inspired you in some way. :)

Don't be a stereotype start up bro! š --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqTX1...
New video live, and even the start up bros agree -- your wellbeing is more important than the hustle and grind.
I think I stepped up my editing on this one, I'd love to know what you think!
Happy Saturday,
Amanda

Wow, so many new faces around here! š«¶
Thanks for subscribing to my little channel -- I'm excited to continue growing it and making more videos for you.
I would love to poll you about your video interests, but it looks like I need 500 subscribers to do that š
Until then, I'll have to ask you to comment below -- what types of content are you interested in seeing from me? Here's a numbered list, just comment the numbers you're interested in!
1. Health and wellness (supplements, chronic illness, gadgets, health routines)
2. Freelancing/business (how my business works, freelancer advice, how to get started, tools I use, etc.)
3. Day in the life/vlogs
4. Something else -- let me know in the comments below.
If there are any super specific video topics you want to see me make, feel free to suggest! This channel is small enough right now that I'll take those into consideration (but it won't be for long!)

I started my business to take naps. š“
At an earlier point in my healing journey from chronic Lyme disease, I needed the ability to flop on my bed at 2 pm and pass out for at least 20 minutes.
Then I could get up and get a little more work done.
Turns out most employers frown on this.
Prior to being self-employed, you could find me at my desk, in the company wellness room, or even out in my car napping for a few minutes because I literally couldn't keep my eyes open in the afternoon.
And I felt really guilty about it. Not to mention nervous that someone would walk over to me and ask why I was sleeping and not working. š«µ
So I started my business to take naps. To prioritize my health and not someone else's bottom line.
That was five years ago--and it worked out better than I ever could've imagined.
Know anyone who wants to build a business that prioritizes their health, and join an amazing community of humans on the same journey?
