1 Year of Chill Time with Kelly

hello hello hello welcome back to a new episode of chill time with Kelly I'm your host Kelly one year of chill time with Kelly like I can't believe that's physically coming out of my mouth right now I actually thought I would quit chill time with Kelly like just at the beginning when starting it cuz I didn't know where this was going to go but one year later I cannot believe how much has changed like in terms of everything so I this is just going to be I think like a what a year in review slash thank you just slash everything cuz this episode's not scripted this is just me putting out all my thoughts out there because ah it has been so insane of on until time with Kelly because I still do everything on my own I like doing everything on my own because that way I have complete control over my own show like I said I produce all the episodes I record them I edit them myself like everything is done on my own and I film on my own too like a lot of is doing a lot a lot I do on my own I've actually had like a um actually um a producer slash editor who reached out wanting to work with me on an episode so we'll see we'll see how that happens because I'm not sure yet if I can actually um do something like that but like I said we will see we will see I would love to try something like that but I'm not sure at the same time anyway so what has chill time with Kelly given me personally as like a creative person it has definitely me definitely given me like a creative sense of just like getting my message out there sharing my story advice and everything and it has given me so much outlook on everything and just so much amazing change because I have been given so many amazing opportunities um because because of chill time with Kelly I've collab um I've had Brands reach out to me wanting to work with me and because so I've worked with three jewelry companies so far I have also what else have I done oh I also have this is the biggest one I've also signed in the Ming agency and that is is so so cool I'm still new in that kind of spectrum so I'm still exploring the ropes on that of how that's going to actually work and be able to implement into my life cuz I'm already super B busy and everything is already super crazy um so we'll see on that um I have done so many photography shoots as well with um some amazing photographers out there like the cover art of my show that's actually one of my photo shoots I'm actually thinking about changing it again to like something a different photo but at the same time that's going to be tough because then I have to change every single cover art on L on my thumbnail on YouTube we will see we will see how I can if I can actually do that because I'm pretty picky with like my cover art because it really because the cover art is the first thing that you see when you look up my podcast so I really really wanted to be like really just overall warm and me because my cover art all the cover Arts well except for the first one is pretty well my style of like warm but sexy at the same time I'm because that's just the person I am and when I'm not working in science I'm like I love tight clothing I love any kind of clothing that like fits me perfectly and it is just amazing thing I love that feeling and another humongous thing that chill time with Kelly has given me is I have been published in my very first magazine and now that is also something I never ever thought that would come out of my mouth and I have to thank you to all my listeners out there there who tuned in to my show and love my work and just oh my gosh have given me such a creative Outlook because that interview was so much fun I'll link it down in the description box but it's just basically a mental my favorite Mental Health magazine that publishes stories of like so many different people from all different kinds of backgrounds between entrepreneurs um Engineers scientists they have like so much variety of different people who do the interview and then share their story out about different things whether it's about mental health relationships op ISM resilience they are really really versatile which I really really liked and that's why I said yes doing that interview and when that interview came out I was super super nervous um because I've kept it so secret and nobody knew at the time but then when I shared it out and then it was finally out there I just thought to my head oh yeah this is is going to be out there even more like I'm going to be even more in the public I and then my story is even more going to be out there but the amount of literally the best feedback and the best words that I've gotten from people telling me that oh my God your story is so inspiring I cannot believe you actually went through all that and you are striving today and just message us like like that just really really remind me why I do this and that's to make a humongous impact on people both in like you know the most positive ways ever and like advice as well so I feel like that magazine came out during a really really good time because I really wanted to highlight that on chill time with Kelly but I couldn't talk about it too much because I didn't know when it was going to be coming out but now that it is out and I can talk about it very openly it has been so so cool and the future of chill time with Kelly who knows uh what the future direction is going to be of course it's still going to be on um and of course I'm going to still continue putting out amazing episodes roads and talking about mental health tying into my own personal story science week with Kelly like um or science week sorry science time with Kelly um like my sub series of chill time Kelly as well as my ASMR episodes I definitely want to be continuing to bring those back as well it's just ASMR is a little bit harder for me to record sometimes but I will try and science time with Kelly um that also sometimes it's kind of harder to record because I I need to also be sensitive to the topics I talk about because in one of my episodes basically someone got into a debate with me on my DMs about it saying like oh why are you talking about X Y andz you shouldn't be talking about X Y andz well it's my show I can talk about what I want but I don't want it to be in a way where it leaves room for debate because that's not what my show is about my show is about being having a positive outlook on something and that's why I expanded it um even more than to just mental health and just to like tie a little bit more into my own personal life and my life experiences into my show and I think that's what adds um a personal touch to all my episodes because I feel like people can relate to them more because you're hearing it from my own personal experience and not really from a third party point of view and that's also why I tie tie in my own personal experiences to everything like I said but it also helps me sound way more natural in my episodes without me feeling like a robot so um what else do I want to say oh yeah so thank you so much of course for all the love and support definitely look forward to more episodes coming in the future thank you so so much for tuning into this one year interview on Showtime with Kelly and of course thank you so much to everyone who has supported me through thick and thin through everything um of course sometimes doing so doing so much freelance work is sometimes not easy because I like said I also work full-time I work with I'm also you know technically an influencer now which oh my gosh I can't believe I just said that at and of course I produce my own podcast episodes I'm a model now I still have photo I also got photo shoots coming up as well one of my friend ends like who is a photographer wants photos of me so I have to prepare for that so it's been been a lot it's been a lot mentally I'm still a grad student as well because I had to take a break from grad school work because it was just I was just not feeling it it and I was having the hardest time ever in grad school but I'm back now so I'm not giving up on that so I I can build more on that a little bit more on my magazine article which like I said linked down description box but also as for some context I'm still a grad student now I'm a grad student I'm a research science I'm a model and I'm a podcast host and producer so I do a lot I do a lot but it's definitely a better balance now because I have more in control of what I do back back when I was at my lowest point I almost had no control but now I have full control in me so anyway that is going to be the end of this episode of chill time with Kelly thank you so so much for watching and I will see you all next time
