a *normal* day in my life, self-employed in my 20s: work, routines, cooking & more

7:34 SUPER CUTE FPM outfit!!! ❤❤

15:46 ask your therapist if they’re open to doing talk therapy sessions between dbt ones if the program allows? Sometimes they don’t know your needs have changed if you don’t tell them, especially if the current programming is working

Do you make your text outside of Final Cut then import it? I feel like the font options are so limited. 12:39

Girllll please never stop posting — you are so real and it’s so refreshing!!!

It’s tough because I feel like some emotional regulation skills need EMDR or IFS therapy to really identify root causes. Praying for wisdom as you discern what’s the best next step for you!

I’m thinking of solo tripping to Charleston ! I would so appreciate you letting me know things I should do or places I should go see! ❤️

getting up that early is for the boys, ignore it, it makes me sick to my stomach every time and totally unnatural for a lot of ppl and unnecessary :) don't listen to tiktok obsessed early morn grinders you can be a productive healthy human and not get up at 530 in the morning.

I mean you don’t even need to break up! Just say I found someone else who is highly recommended who takes my insurance! ✌️

Going into therapy at the end goal should always be “to get where I don’t need to see you anymore.” If you feel like things are not moving, then you definitely need a new therapist. Any great therapist will be happy to partways with you if you feel they aren’t helping you. They want you to get the help that you need so that you can get to a place where you no longer need help. This is coming from someone who spent 10+ years in and out of therapy until I finally found a therapist who helped me wrap my head around that and helped me get to where I can use the tools I need daily on my own.
I hope that you see this and I hope you find the therapist that leads you to where you need to be and want to be! ❤

Watched your vid while putting away laundry and cooking! Also I felt so seen when you mentioned the "chicken ick" haha

Love your vlog! I have also been working with a dietitian thru nourish and she’s great and love the site. For me it’s a matter of really applying everything I am learning ;)

I’m a real one

LOVED shield of sparrows

something my therapist told me recently that was awesome was "stop making up stories/scenarios when you don't know what's going on." For example, I don't know why my friend hasn't texted me back, and I started spiraling and thinking about all the reasons he could be ignoring me and my therapist was like "why are you spending time doing that? You don't know what is going on with him and you don't control other people, so just let it be and assume the best"

I’m a real one!

Please bring back the nose ring !!!!! 😭

✨ misunderstood ✨

I'm also looking for a new one too... its so hard to leave plus I'm also looking for in person instead of online... but yes its awkward.

❤️I’m a real one ❤

Each time I’ve left a therapist they asked me if I have any feedback for them and have always been supportive. Just want you to give a heads up on what to expect.

i LOVE hannah vlogs!! this was exactly what i needed on this sunday evening. ILY HANNAH 🩷🩷

Aloha busy work routine like this video

hi Hannah!! I hope you’re having a lovely Sunday 🫶🏽 just wanted to comment on how you’re feeling with therapy since I was in the same place back in Feb with feeling like I wasn’t making “enough” progress — but it took a few close friends pushing me to realize that it’s because I actually wasn’t being as honest and transparent as I could be about 1) my therapy goals and 2) quite frankly, the ongoing symptoms I was experiencing that I was completely ignoring in my day to day life. once I had that conversation my therapist was like “oh, you very much also have OCD and that’s why what we’ve been doing isn’t working” :’) after that I pretty quickly started treatment and medication, which were things I had previously been so scared of and why I hadn’t brought up my 24/7 intrusive thoughts lol. I’m not sure if you’ll even see this comment but food for thought! whether or not you end up going with a new therapist or not :) it definitely is a tough conversation though and sending you lots of encouragement and strength to speak up for what you want!!

i’m a real one !!!

Honestly it sounds very rude but Hannah when you post it makes my day but the rest of the week goes like something is missing. I wish u posted more often. None the less lots of love queen❤❤

LOVE THESEEEEEEE

hard conversations are always hard, but your therapist will understand :)

I think you can continue doing DBT work self-guided and you can even reflect with your potential new therapist, despite her not being trained. The original DBT model was 2-3 hours a week skills group, plus weekly therapy and phone coaching, and it was created for people in chronic crisis and danger bc of bpd symptoms and who were unable to stay in (or benefit from) typical therapy. Just like not everyone needs that level of care, not everyone needs a fully trained dbt therapist in order to benefit from the skills and concepts. Also a self-validation module has been added to a lot of programmes, might be helpful (it's not in the actual skills book from what I remember).

I’ll never get tired of these kinds of videos ever.

I was shocked when I saw you bookstore photo!

never been this early! it's monday 4am where i live, and watching your sunday videos is always my favorite way to start the week.

Love your videos! ❤

Hi Hannah, Happy Sunday!
How have you been?

omg i'm so early
