I think we connect with vulnerability. Feeling vulnerable may contain some fear as we feel unprotected. Your channel has grown so much and you may have more than 100 videos out but you show up vulnerable and we connect with that. Don't think you'll have to worry about losing that feeling of "fear" anytime soon :)

Being vulnerable oftentimes relates directly to being authentic. I think the authenticity is what I appreciate the most about Caroline. And the fact that she’s become less afraid of being vulnerable and authentic is actually amazing and something we should all be striving for. She definitely inspires me in that way. ❤

My wife and I started watching from Christmas smash or pass and haven't stopped. Not all of your stuff is for us, but your podcast got added to her regular rotation and your sister's book is on the end table we put next to the guest chair for my wife's office. You're weird. You're goofy. You're way more self judgmental than you are of others, at least out loud. You can say something changes, and I think that's true. I think if this video felt like Smash or Pass, I wouldn't have watched it. Change is going to happen. You're gonna grow and evolve and adapt because you're alive and you think. We have to find ways to guide the change closer to our truest selves, which makes it less like a change and more like a refinement. It's all polish. The trick is making sure you don't polish the surface so much it's just a perfect reflection of what's around it. It has to maintain its character and material qualities. I think you've done that wonderfully. (Also and this is super dumb but I constantly forget how relatively close you actually are to us geographically. I used to work on E st NW, we live in MD. Your success feels like a hometown hero kinda thing for us. There's a lot of parasocial pride, which I don't think is a bad thing. It's not like we think we have anything to do with it. It's just like, oh she's a beltway corridor KZitemr. Nice. One of ours made it. Woo. Etc.)

Hi Caroline I’m 18 years old and I’m from Serbia. The way you make me love and appreciate my life more is insane. Like it makes me love hard moments and can’t wait to have them again, it motivates me to work on relationships that I care about even more. Your videos also inspire me to enjoy those “boring” and “too normal” moments of life. Also the part in the kitchen and the video about your past relationships makes me believe in love again and reminds me that despite the way some man used to treat me there is someone out there that wants to care about me. I just wanted you to know the impact tha you have on me and to know how far away I am but how close I actually feel to you (not in a weird way😭) Love you a lot, your gen z💗

As a recovering perfectionist, I don't need to be reminded to challenge myself, I need to remind myself that there is no inherent virtue in taking the hard route. To work smarter, not harder.

Hey! The reason I love old songs from some musician bands that I'm a fan of. It's because in their very first albums they put the particular essence of their humanity into their songs. With the shitty quality and a bunch of mistakes, this music makes me feel the electricity in the voices, tenderness, and the passion of the musicians. You can call it fear or anxiety, but it's also the soul in the things they do. Then, they start making money. The quality of the music improves, mistakes decrease, but the soul is gone. They even try to put emotions in their voices, but it's just a dull copy of real humanity. Maybe it's about life, not only about old songs. Btw you are great!

Love the observation that sensing the fear makes KZitemrs more relatable - so true!! But I feel like it’s even more fundamental than that - I think it’s about connecting with someone’s pain and suffering and witnessing that person work through it in pursuit of a goal, objective that we admire. I feel like that might be the difference between playing a confident “KZitemr” and performing a character who faces obstacles and pain in a script/play. I likely need to think through it more.. but my point is: sensing your pain engages our empathy. ❤️ Love hearing your journey and thoughts about creating art online Caroline!!

I remember hearing of this controversy decades ago (and Shakespeare not being the actual author made sense), but I had no idea that it was such a big thing!

Ooh - I love what you said about actively romanticizing the murky, the messy to remember that time when you were young, before you knew how that thing would be resolved. That active romanticizing works when raising kids, too, btw. Thank you!

Having recently started sharing myself and my art on KZitem I am very much feeling that fear! So interesting to hear you talk about it like that when I aspire to have your level of confidence. Thank you for your authenticity and for helping me realise I need to embrace the fear😳❤️

NEEDED THIS 🙌🏼 I love this flipped perspective of “fear is good”.. it really does make you feel more alive. I’ll take being uncomfortable over being bored, especially when it comes to pushing myself creatively! I’ve been heavily considering making a KZitem channel for many years and this is the closest I’ve ever felt to starting - simply because of this reminder to embrace the fear! I always love your videos Caroline! Thank you for everything you do!

I live in Arlington and everytime I’m in DC I hope to run into you!! Anyway, so proud of you and thanks for such beautiful content ❤

I’m in LA, but I keep thinking this too! I wish there was a way to organize local CW chapters 😂 She fosters such a sweet, positive, loving, vulnerable community, and I wish there was a good way for us to connect locally- especially bc a lot of her content is about the challenge of making and maintaining friends in the modern world.

You are a talented editor. I'm glad you get others to do it usually, cause it must be exhausting, I just wanted to say that I think you did great and I enjoyed the pace and shape of your own edit in this vid.

Gosh I love your editing style and way of story telling. The honesty, vulnerability, letting us have a peek in cherished moments of your life, circling back to what you were talking about at the beginning of the video and connecting everything shown to one "moral of the story"... This is genius. I know not every video can be like this, but god have I missed those kind of videos. Love you Caroline! ❤

I just wanna say, thank you for still being open and vulnerable and being up to show your life. As a creator it can be hard to open up after really rough feedback, like the one you mentioned on your podcast regarding your romantic life recap video. Like, it is SO hard to come back mentally from all this stuff dumped on you. It is COMPLETELY reasonable to never want to talk about personal things again, to just want to send it all to hell and not come back. But you came back, and you showed your partner who you are perfect with, and you showed your family who make so much sense to have created you. You did it anyway. And it is an big goddamn honor to watch you do that. It is so fkin sweet to watch, you have no idea. Thank you for doing this. I hope you know your audience is NOT taking you for granted.

Your videos are such a beautiful part of my online experience! You're doing a fantastic job :) One of my highlights of the week is setting my curls while listening to the podcast. You two are freaking hilarious, wonderful, real! And the pod always makes me want to phone a friend, which I often do then!

Great insights! I just acknowledge I’m scared to death… but I’ve got this! And I really do think as people show less and less fear… and perhaps too much confidence, ordinary people’s desire for comeuppance increases. Folks get that Schadenfreude thing going on. Lest someone get too big for their britches. So… balancing this can detract from your mental health. We really CAN and SHOULD be competent at things we love to do enough to also be confident in our abilities AND rather than get jealous about it, react with awe that they’re doing it so you can, too, regarding what you love to do. If you’ve been “stuck”? That’s your fear. You don’t need to be perfect. Just start doing it and being crappy. The more you practice the better. Fear of messing up is adrenaline. Joy from succeeding is adrenaline. We hardly can tell the difference. Your heart is gonna race regardless.

This video was the essence of Caroline on KZitem. Loved every second of it. One where I wanted to klick the Like-button so many times. It's priceless how open you are about stuff that happens on the inside (if that makes sense). It is very comforting to hear someone talk about stuff that you are struggling with as well (that's why I am a big fan of Jess' and your podcast, too). Thank you for sharing. Lots of love to you.

LOVEEE this selfreflection!! And its so true. Thats why I stop liking people that I follow after a few years. They lose their sense of reality and genuineneity (thats not a word but you know what I mean). I've literally seen formerly humble influencers giving you 10-daily-habits-for-selfcare that take up an entire day, while driving in their bmw with a 10$ matcha latte while getting a mani-pedi because that is what they do for a living and they've just completely lost touch with us mere mortals. Ok, rant over, but your reflection is just a much needed intervention for all those influencaahs out there

The interrupter! That's me to a T, for exactly the same reason. I learned a ton about how to improve my communication skills (from an abusive 4-year relationship with a covert narcissist, but that's a totally different story lolll). I've also learned so much about romantic love and self-love from watching your videos, so thank you for being so open and relatably self-aware. I always find myself guffawing up a storm when watching your content. Better to laugh than to cry, amiright?

This was the perfect video for me right now. ☺️ in a new place in a new city, deciding whether to buy furniture (I don’t have a tv stand or bed frame yet), a bicycle, or cowboy boots next. Nervous about a party I’m going to on Saturday. Starting a new side hustle. :):):):)
