Happy Sunday! This week I’m talking about why I no longer want the black and white version of “simple living”, homesteading, slow living, self reliance, off grid living and more!

I don’t think you have to live in a small crappy cabin in the woods to live simply. There are so many ways to do it!

I’m usually building my home from scratch and documenting the journey, but some weeks, it’s nice to take a moment and do something different.

  • Haters will 100% hate 😅! Remember to be kind! These comments fully sparked this idea of redefining what simple living means for myself! I’d love to know, what does simple living mean for YOUR lifestyle 🥰?! THANK YOU for allowing me to do a different type of video this week. Part of simple living is not getting burnt out by the rat race of life and posting this video allowed me to express my creativity in a different way than usual and I just loved it. Writing was one of my passions in my teens and this felt like a writers craft piece to me that I got to film :). Next week I'll be back to the home build <3. B

    People are jealous... ignore them
  • Biata, Biata. How did you manage to be so wise when so young. Just when I thought I couldn’t admire you more, you post this. Just WOW. Lots of love and respect from the old man in the UK

    I came for a catchy title and thumbnail. I stayed for a smart young woman whose enthusiasm and approach to life in general was catching in the best way possible. I have never regretted any moment spent watching your content. You've been a positive thing in a very negative world. Thank you. And while I know it's hard, I appreciate you taking the abuse you get when you are open and honest and interact with your community. It can't be easy. But you are impacting people very positively! Thank you, again!

    Hi Biata, first time commenting from France. Found this quote, so true, "When you do great things, it's hard to please everyone." from Solon. You're doing great, keep going
  • @rogerperson7159
    You are so right, simple living is what makes you fill good and at peace.
  • No matter how much you try to make your life easier haters always make it harder

  • @jimd907
    You are doing what many of us have wanted but for whatever reason haven’t had the courage to do
  • @DrWes1962
    Wow. What got into you this week!? Every point in this TED Talk was well reasoned and thought provoking...and pretty energetic. Late spring agrees with you. Time to change the channel name to "Biata Gets it Done!". Just one of the reasons I watch a lot of home building channels and only joined yours.
  • What you have said makes so much sense!!! Many people never "break it down". I've researched this for years and you are spot on!!!
  • Biata for me, its not to try and explain or trying to understand what is simple living, I ❤ watching your determination and be brave to learn and do things you don't have any experience with, I learned a lot from you and I loved, you're my mentors, may GOD bless you and family too 💯🇯🇲❤️❤️❤️
  • Biata, great to see your honesty and your dreams that you are persuing no matter what others might think or say you are taking this build on for yourself and family, and I say kudos to you for you being you. Keep up the work toward fulfilling your dreams.
  • Biata, always enjoyable, entertaining, & informative. You & your family are doing an amazing job.
  • @waltervang
    You need to do what’s make you and your family happy and not what others expect from you. Please keep on doing what you are doing as it gives you happiness, simple living and creates beautiful memories for ever.
  • @ron8zooman
    Biata, you explained this very well. However, you don't need to justify your way of life or the choices you make. I enjoy watching your show. Keep doing what you are doing. It works for me! And obviously, it is working for you! 😊
  • @D-1983-R
    Great words and topic Biata. Simple living is certainly an individual mentality that can't be replicated by someone else. ❤
  • @cjcomputer1
    Always looking forward to a new video each week! This one is so wonderful. You’re life coach material and I’m thankful you can share your perspective with truth, boldness and confidence! Keep up the hard work and can’t wait until next week’s video!

    Thank you for your insight! We appreciate all you are doing for your family 😊
