Happy new year, so it is a new year, it's 2022.. That is just so crazy to me and what's even more crazy is you know, i don't know so today is january the 3rd. I want this to be my first video on my channel for the new year, because i want to do a lot of things differently this year. I want to be more myself more, you know just more fun. I feel like i'm really reserved on this channel. I don't know why, probably i don't know i feel like i get in my head and like because i know certain people watch me like my family. My friends like it just makes me want to post certain things and not be like super vulnerable or whatever the case may be, but i want to change that because i just feel like what are we doing. You know new year new me now, i'm kidding but um yeah. So on my channel, it's just gon na be a lot of me. I'Ve been getting some questions about people that you don't see like. I just feel like. If you don't see somebody, then i don't know you don't see them like this is my channel. So i really don't even know like why people ask because this isn't like a couple's channel this, isn't you know it's not that it's just me. So that's what you're going to see on this channel you're going to see me you're, going to see my family um. My kid, because a lot of you guys don't even know that i have a kid. I have a kid he's. 12.. I know a whole 12 year old, i feel like. If i come on this channel and i just post, then i won't overthink it like. I don't know if it's just the leo in me, but i get in my head a lot and that makes me not want to post because i'll think about it like. Oh, i haven't posted a video and then i'll overthink it and then i'm just like stressing because i didn't post so then i don't post and you know that's just a terrible cycle to have so i definitely want to be more consistent on this channel because i Am very inconsistent and it's terrible - and i know that and i just really like guys - i swear it's a pattern of mine. I start a lot of things, don't finish and i don't know why so we're gon na do a lot of starting and finishing. This is me, we're single it's 20 22, we're just really going to focus on ourselves and our happiness and we're not going to worry about what other people are thinking or saying, we're not living for anyone else. We'Re living for ourself we're living for ourselves and i really just want to be selfish this year. I want to do things that i want to do. I want to talk about what i want to talk about without having the feeling of worrying about what somebody else is going to think or how someone else is going to feel, because, at the end of the day like holding in things that should have been said Or should have been dead or should have been done, should have done um, it takes a lot of energy and it's draining, and you know i just want to live and be free. I want to live, i want to post, i want to be happy and i want that to translate. I just feel like it's not translating, so that's what we're doing differently, we're just being ourselves so um yeah. I hope you guys stick around because i know you hear this all the time, but i'm not gon na say it we're just gon na do so. Yeah expect more of me me. I really just feel like. I can't believe i'm in my 30s, and i don't know that this is just how i feel i really should start like a relationship advice podcast, because i feel like i've been through so many situations in my life that relationship wise. That could probably really help someone not saying that mine was bad because it really wasn't terrible. I just feel, like you know, people outgrow, each other people want different things, and that is okay. That is o k, and you know that's just what it is so yeah. If you guys had any questions you can leave them down below because we can do chit chats. You know i can give advice from experience or if i don't have experience you know, i could just give advice, because you know let's turn up for 2022 and that's just it. I hope you guys enjoyed this video real, quick sweet straight to the point kind of i beat around the bush a lot but yeah. So i will see you guys in my next video peace.
Comments
Shanel Miller: Idk If I said this before but you were a part of the first set of YouTubers that I begin watching years ago. You are an OG and I’m riding with you❤️
Dee Loves: How is it that I have been watching Lakia for almost 10 years, and she still looks the same! She is definitely an example of the statement- black don't crack.
Chazzzisawesome: Lakia you are really an OG so I am not mad at anything you choose. Everything will work out!
allofdestiny: Happy New YearI definitely get in my head and only share certain things knowing fam & friends watch. Sucks sometimes but maybe 2022 will be the year. Love your hair also.
Chazzzisawesome: It's a new year but what's really crazy is how beautiful your hair is! Like it never stops with you, #HairGawwd!
Missy Lynn: Here for the LakiaStar reincarnation Let’s get it popping
IVY: Love it
Peace Jones: Please start the relationship advice segment. We need it!! Not even on some “being nosey” type of stuff, but we need the transparency out here. I’m single, but I’m always looking for solid advice. I know everyone’s situation/relationship is different, but it’s nice to hear from people who have been in long term relationships. A lot of us think relationships are a lot easier than they rly are. The family pics, the good times, etc. But how can we rly learn to navigate a relationship properly?
Only Ciera: Getting out of a 5year relationship recently. Has been hard some days, wanting to call just to see if they are okay. But I am worth so much more of how I was treated. Healing all 2022 focused on myself more. Wishing all you ladies healing whoever is going Through a break up.
Milan Dior: I'm an OG LakiaStar subbie... I'm talking red hair days. I love the growth and transparency. Can't wait to see more content from you! ❤
Life As Jazz: Laaaaakiiiiaaaa, i need to be on that podcast I would like to share some things that are similar. I feel everything you are talking about in this video from the posting and not posting getting into your head about everything because certain people are watching etc. I am most definitely going through and feeling the same thing currently and I’m on what you on !!! Cant wait for the new content
LAUREN C.: You were the first youtuber I started watching years ago! Seems like you’ve always stayed true to yourself and stayed in your lane which I truly admire. Can’t wait to see what you have in store this year!
Realdealchris: I have been following your YouTube for ten years now and I will say the reason is because you come across genuine and relatable on camera. As a viewer we trust your judgement and honesty. If you can get women to have followed your hair journey and tips then you can certainly have an even bigger platform on life advice. I think posting more about you is a great idea for 2022. Some ideas I would love to see as a super subscriber: •A day in the life series/home life/work and editing videos •Lifestyle topic discussions other products you use like clothes, lotions etc •Social topic discussions (what do you think about some hot topics trending) Don’t forget to stay true to your foundation and we love continuing to see how you maintain your hairstyles throughout the month! Blessings 2022
Stahr Milan: My babyyyyyyyyy i miss youuuuuuu
TheRealCorini: I feel like we got to see a little more of you in this short video. Shy, outgoing but reserve at the same time, and VULNERABLE! It’s “if you don’t see people you just don’t see them” all 2022 and beyond ❤️
beedeepresents: As many have already said, i too have been watching you since way way back and im happy to hear we'll get to see more of you and your glowing personality. You are funny af on IG so yes please do whatever you like with your channel. We will be here to support!
Domonique Robinson: I totally get where you are coming from...definetly something I want to do more of with my channel this year as well. I can't wait to watch your new content!❤️
Queen Tati👑: I haven’t watched in a while but when I saw the title I said noooo, but I’m rooting for you, I’ve always liked your personality and I look forward to seeing your next chapter
Sharonda S.: So here for the relationship content. I'm newly single myself after 12 years and a 11 year old in my 30's like wtf who would of known lol but it is what it is I've learned so much about myself and what I want going forward. But for now just enjoying being single and doing me... Let's go sis live your best fucking life...Happy New Year everyone!!!!

Ashanti Lovely: Girl I’m on the same thing. Trying to be consistent with the things that I say I want. I have a tendency to procrastinate until I do nothing which is horrible so I’m trying to get out of that energy and really follow through on the goals I set. I wish you the best on what your channel has to come! You are definitely an OG YouTuber for me. I actually meet you years ago at the mall and you were so nice (good ol’ pre-COVID days). I hope you have a Happy New Year, Lakia!

UnCasualT Tv: This was inspiring i havent posted a video in so long cuz i too overthink, its hard being a leo. We wake up in different moods each day. So inconsistent with emotions. Not caring what people think while caring.

Love Rehab with Rose: Happy New Year Love! I know EXACTLY where you’re coming from and you really don’t understand how you motivated me to “get out of my head” my channel discusses some of the things that you were speaking of and for those same exact reasons I don’t post.
