Hey friends! In this video I am reintroducing myself and chatting about what I want this channel to be. If you like my vibe and look forward to whats to come, then make sure to subscribe so that you never miss as upload!
I don’t dive into this too much in this video, but vlogging and talking head videos are not my strong suite. The reason I’m pursuing this type of video content creation is because of the things I’m passionate about, namely sharing authenticity with the hope that my simple, authentic style can encourage someone.
My life is not fancy (maybe to some it may seem that way). I live on a tight budget and rarely go out because of my social anxiety. I’ll share more about this an upcoming video. The point is that I want to show anyone who’s interested how to live a peaceful and fulfilling life without having a ton of pressure and expectations.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy this little introduction video and I can’t wait to share some more soon! xxBekkah🩵
Video Transcript
Hey friends, it’s Bekkah, welcome to Dare To Thrive. Despite what that name may suggest, Dare To Thrive isn’t your typical hustle, girl boss type of channel.
Instead, we focus on thriving in slow, meaningful ways that support faith-centered holistic wellness and peaceful living.
I have a lot of plans for this channel.
At its core, this channel will correspond with my blog—where I publish my writing and where you’ll find the hub for my online world.
I’m an artist and entrepreneur, but I definitely struggle with being consistent. This is something I’m working on. And like most people, I’m still a work in progress and that’s ok.
It’s my mission to share content that is motivating, encouraging, and inspiring. Content that educates, encourages, and inspires anyone willing to pay attention to discover their calling, live in their purpose, and pursue the life they’re meant to live.
I’m all about finding beauty in the simple, mundanity of everyday life.
I love romanticising the normal and frollicking around as though I live in a Jane Austen novel.
A huge inspiration for me is the Bella Grace magazines. I absolutely love them. Although they’re a bit of an investment, I’ve always loved books and magazines and will always love tangible paper.
Even though I’ve always struggled with reading due to dyslexia and various eye issues, books are such a glorious way to decorate my home and escape to another world. Getting in more reading is something I’m striving to incorporate into my week. And I always welcome book recommendations.
Journaling is also something I greatly enjoy. Ever since childhood, when I finally learned how to write (and read) journaling became a way to escape and vent all of my frustrations. I honestly believe that my faith and journaling kept me from doing a lot of stupid things growing up.
A hot cup of tea or cuban cafe con leche are two drinks I can’t live without.
A big thing that brings me great joy is keeping multiple cozy spaces in my home where I can take in the moment, breathe, and pause.
Always Learning, Always Growing
While self-reflection is something I enjoy, I try to limit myself because I’m also afflicted with overthinking syndrome. This is a huge reason why I stay away from social media. So while I have accounts, I don’t actively use them and don’t plan to share short-form content on them.
If I do any short-form content, it’ll be strictly here and on my blog.
I have many dreams and aspirations. Some of which you’ll learn about along the way.
As for this channel. I long to see it become a safe space for anyone who shares the desire to live a peaceful, fulfilling life.
About Me: Get To Know Me
I’m a writer, a creative entrepreneur, a homemaker, a wife, a sister, a daughter, a friend, a Christian, and a passionate lover of all things cozy, cottage, and whimsical.
It’s one of my life-long dreams to have my home look like a Thomas Kinkade painting. I grew up with this sweet book on our living room coffee table and my mom was so lovely as to give it to me for my own home.
I actually ended up realizing, just recently, that studying this book since I was child is what led me to find a deep love for cottage style, whimsical gardens, Victorian farmhouses, and quaint townscapes.
Cheesy, hallmark-style movies are a comfort to me. The first 12 seasons of NCIS and the OG Charmed are two of my comfort shows. I’ve rewatched them many times… I’m also a fan of ATLA and love rewatching it with my sister.
My music taste varies, but you’ll experience some of it throughout my videos thanks to Epidemic Sound’s incredible music library that is completely humanmade music.
I’m also a military wife who also grew up military. I’ll share a little about those experiences here and there.
Closing Thoughts
All in all, I want to welcome you to Dare To Thrive with me in a slow, anti-hustle effort to enjoy daily life in all its glory.
As far as the upload schedule for this channel. For now, my aim is to publish twice a month. If I am able to upload more often, I will. But this isn’t my only project.
In fact, I have a minecraft channel that you can check out here and a no ai music channel that you can check out here.
Additionally, I try to publish a few blog posts on my blog each month and am working on expanding my creative endeavors to print on demand products showcasing my own designs.
Everything will be linked in the description box below my videos.
Basically, I’m a renaissance woman who is determined to try many things and see what pans out.
Ok, well, that’s it for now!
Subscribe to never miss an upload and I hope you have a beautiful day!
Always remember, you are fully loved, wanted, and accepted!
