hello hey guys hey guys i missed it okay if you're new here welcome if you're not new here you know
that i've taken about a year break literally today i went to go double check on my youtube and
i found out that the last video i post was may 8th 2021 and today is may 2022 that was like i did not
plan that i really really needed this last year of a break i posted my last video fully anticipating
to come back the next week love you guys and then i just didn't for like a year so i'm sorry
if you're still here thank you so much for sticking around and following me on my other
platforms which you can find me at christmastita on instagram tiktok and snapchat i'm there active
every single day if y'all have been asking over there for me to come back over here and i've
missed you and i've missed the creative aspect of editing and creating these videos for you guys
today marks a new chapter on my youtube and i'm so excited to just be super transparent with you guys
on my journey and moving forward of everything going on in my life because
a lot has happened since last year growing in relationship with my family and my friends
traveling you'll notice because the few videos after this one i'm just kind of
like randomly traveling and then we'll get into our regular content i thought today
let's answer some questions that you guys have had some things you've been asking over on my
instagram make sure you guys turn on your post notifications for youtube right now because going
forward and posting one to two times every single week okay let's start this q a okay so first up we
have how are you doing lately to be honest guys if you follow me on other platforms these last four
months have been incredible but right before that i definitely went through a really dark season
it was my first experience with any type of depression and kind of experiencing those
emotions that were so uncontrollable and that was something that i really got super super frustrated
with starting in february so i'm just like this is not who i am this is not how i act this is not
how i normally feel and it really took letting go of something in my life to really propel me
forward into this new journey that i needed to go on between self-love and self-discovery and just
freedom and living and being young and traveling and doing all these things that my heart really
really wanted and needed to do and it's literally made me the best person i could possibly be i feel
more like myself than i have in years and so right now to this day i am doing amazing i'm probably
the happiest i've been in my life in a very very long time but i really i needed to go through
that dark time to get to this right now and right now i am so happy i am so excited i am so
in love with my life and what i get to do and that's i guess how i am right now and a
little bit about how it's been how's the new house you guys might notice but we are not
where we used to be we are actually in my brand new house that i built last year i moved in in
june right when i stopped youtube so i think i'll have a video of that coming up soon kind
of the process of building and moving in and all of that to then get into a final house tour but i
love it i'm in love with my space i'm in love with my house my dog toto he's still around and it's
very special to be living here on the sunshine coast close to my family but in a place to call
my own so i love it will you do routines and workouts and q a stuff yes i will this channel
is now gonna be focused around just a healthy balanced lifestyle so that looks like fitness
videos fitness exercises workouts eating habits routines daily life balance travel all of that and
i'm so excited because that is the direction we're going no more amputee stuff blah blah blah blah
i am so much more than my amputation and that's something that i've really had to learn in these
last couple months so i know i'm starting fresh as a content creator on here but i am so excited
because this is where i want to go and this is where i need to be this is what i need to share so
new change new era new new how has your faith been over this past year this is a really good question
because this is my first time not really having a church to go to to be in every single sunday
and really hold me accountable because as you guys know when i was in the city i was a part
of vivid church and i served a lot there and i still love the church but there's not one of those
on the sunshine coast here and the churches are just very different here and i played soccer for
the last year so that was actually the zachary thames church so i wasn't even able to attend
but it's been a challenge and it's been beautiful in its own way because i've had to learn
how to spend time with jesus on my own in my own house worshiping in my house worshiping in my car
making those moments so much more intimate and so much more meaningful because if i don't make time
for the moments at home i'm not going to have them it's definitely been something i've leaned on this
last year something i've been tested on something i've been challenged on and something that i'm so
excited to continue to grow on moving forward it's a good question what position do i play in soccer
i play forward because i love to run and shoot at the net do you plan to get married and have
kids in the near future absolutely i don't know about near future because i have to meet somebody
first but as soon as i meet the right person and we get married i am like rock on pop them out
that's all i'm gonna say
but yes i want a family and i want a husband kind of tailgates onto a lot of these questions asking
me if i'm single or if i'm in a relationship or how my dating life is blah blah blah i'm single
right now i'm happily single i'm waiting for the right person and that's all i want
i don't want to mess around i don't want games i don't want to just day to date and have fun
i'm looking for my spouse and somebody to do life with and run after life with and that's all i want
so single but waiting and happy now that you have a home gym would you ever go back to a regular gym
so i actually have been going to our rec center gym just to do some cardio there because i feel
less motivated to do it at home when i'm just by myself so i still go there do some cardio
do a couple leg machines that i don't have in my home gym i have to show you guys that that will
be a whole other video but i do a little bit of both hardest thing about moving from the mainland
i really think it's just a lack of things to do be honest this one is a mixture of a whole
bunch of things like i love living a small town i love being raised in a small town but i also
am very much a city girl at the same time and i love this city i love the business i love people
working hard i love the motivation that comes from a city so i think having that and other times i
also love being home and i love being close with my friends again and being close to my family so
it's i go through days where it's like some days are really great some days are like uh
you could go for more i'm trying to stay on topic with just catching up and we'll do like a regular
q a another time but we're just gonna keep going here what is the ultimate goal for the platform
you've worked so hard to create that is a really good question and something i have spent a lot of
time thinking about in these last couple months ultimately i want somebody to look at my life and
look at the things that i share and say hey like if she's had to go through some sort of adversity
to be able to do these things and to believe in herself and to believe in this life maybe i can
too whether you have another disability or you don't and you're just going through something or
going through a change going through a transition i just hope that my life can encourage you to
keep going in yours and just inspire you and ultimately share with you guys the hope that
i have and the reason why i'm so confident the reason why i believe in myself and so i hope in a
way my videos are just a light to somebody's life whatever way you take that i hope that it's just
something refreshing and something encouraging and something that leaves you better
than when you first came to it or more inspired you know
did you enjoy the time away i really really did i think for me the biggest thing was just being
able to enjoy moments and not have to film them like which was special in its own way
cause i feel like i'm always like camera camera camera catcher capture it capture it but this
time i was just like no like i'm just gonna live this and experience it with my own eyes because
sometimes we need to put our phone down and stop taking pictures and stop taking videos and just
be there and so for me the moments between my own successes as well as moments with my family
and my friends just being present without a camera which i think has been a really big blessing but
it's also something that i've missed i've missed you guys i've missed filming so yeah i needed the
break but i'm very ready to be back have you made a decision about a path of life i think for career
wise i'm definitely pursuing social media this is what i love i love connecting with you guys
i love being friends with you guys i love the industry i love the world of it and something
that i want to dive into even more and so this is definitely where i'm going with my career as well
as serving some businesses on the side which you guys will hear about soon but it all connects back
to social media and you guys and our community and our family here how old am i i'm 24. i'm old
that's how old i am do you ever acknowledge people in your dms i actually do a lot of times i'll go
through my requested and i'll just respond to somebody not if you just say like hey but if you
ask me something or if it's more of a personal message i'll always try and get back to you
over time so make sure you guys follow me on instagram but is your documentary coming out
and on what platform in case you've been following me on my other platforms i did film a documentary
this summer and continue to a little bit through this year it will actually be releasing on here
so i'm glad you guys are here because you're not going to miss it and it should be coming
out anytime in these next couple months we're just in post-production so stay tuned because
it's coming and it's a full documentary on like my life so more details on that coming soon but
i'm so excited to share it with you guys i need to stop talking with my hands i'm literally like
do you have any new goals plans for the future i do not all of them i can share but it starts
with just growing a momentum on my social medias that's here tick tock snapchat instagram i'm going
all in on everything right now and i'm making stuff happen lots of change coming very exciting
and i can't wait to share with you guys why did you take a break from youtube again i kind of
touched on this already but it just happened like i actually really didn't plan on taking it i just
somehow never returned so i'm sorry about that what is one thing the lord has taught you this
year this is a big one and it's been a journey but i think ultimately the biggest thing that
i've learned is no matter how far you drift away or seasons that you go where you feel
far away or you feel like you're not in touch you can't hear him he isn't ever far away and
when you get to the other side of it you'll look back and you'll see that he was there all along
so i think for me the biggest thing is just that he's never left he's never left me on my own i've
never gone through a moment by myself as much as i might have felt it in the moment he was
there and he was protecting me and he was loving me in those moments so i think that's the best
thing and the biggest thing that i've learned is just that he's always there and he always loves
you no matter what you're doing no matter how far you drift no matter what's going on in your life
he loves you and he's there for you and if you turn to him he's going to answer and he's going
to love you all the same so i think that's been the biggest thing that i've really learned to
play with and wrestle with this year and come to believe wholeheartedly um and i think i'm just
going to end it there because a lot of these are either accident related or just regular
questions but i kind of want to leave this q a as something that's just us catching up together
i want to say thank you guys for being here thank you for staying if you're still here thank you for
