My Journey to Self Reliance

What would be the first skill you’d learn for self reliance?

My jaw dropped with that opening scene! I can’t believe you caught a hawk in flight with your drone and so close! Amazing nature 🪷

I used to create independent internships for college students in the Finger Lakes Region of NYS. It was so rewarding to see them take on new challenges and feel like they were making a difference in their own lives and the lives of others. I truly enjoy your videos, and I hope more young adults follow your example and seek a self-fulfilling lifestyle as you have done.

I am so happy to see you trying all these old world self reliant ways. When I was young I taught these all to myself and my kids grew up with me doing these methods. I worked at an interactive outdoor Pilgrim museum and learned to dye from vegetables. I could see your self satisfaction in your face when something home made and natural comes to fruition. There is no feeling like it. I think a few generations missed out on so much by not experiencing that feeling. Keep it up. I hope you influence people to not let these survival experiences disappear. A tip for your compost. Find a coffee shop to save you grounds. Nothing heats up like coffee grounds or simple grass clippings!

Wow Ally - 💗I love all your videos for the scenery and relaxing narratives and of course all the homesteading lessons, however this intro was extra special with the drone shot of the hawk🫶🏼.

Thanks for a great respite today. Your growth into this work and your homestead are very entertaining and remarkable. Have a great week.

Let’s just say … I’m in awe! Beautiful life…. This is one of my favorites among your videos❤very inspiring

What an amazing video! Loved this one! The sound of pulling vegetables out of your garden; the sound of the birds; the set up for your essential oils❤ your videography is top. The relaxation of your videos is truly felt.

Awesome!!! You can really do anything you put your mind to. Gret job Allie. You really are self reliant. I admire all that you are doing at your homestead, and for yourself. I am a little old and not in very good health anymore, but I love watching you thrive at what you do.😊 God Bless You 🙏

Its my birthday month, too. Ill be 6 0. I can't believe I've lived this long. Peace Love and Light m ✨️

This was so relaxing to watch.. ✨You always make me smile😊 with your enthusiasm,,, there's no doubt in my mind you will achieve great hieghts with your endeavours✨.... @i think you have the most enchanting veggie garden I've ever seen🤣✨... BLESSINGS to you and Kyle and the kitty cats ✨🥰

Really enjoyed the video! ❤ The jackery looks like an awesome product. I will pass the word around and make sure whoever wants one uses your link with all the rain and storms and tornado activity in our area, and some people still without electricity. It sure would come in handy. Great job making the compost! 😊

Absolutely Ally, One of My Most favorite Quotes is...To Oneself B True....

Wow, you have really been busy and learning a lot. Congratulations, it is fun watching you and learning along the way! Blessings for a beautiful week ahead!

I pray that you see this! I am going through some really difficult times with entering menopause and you and Kyle lift my spirits when I see yours and his videos. Depression is a killer and you and him definitely help. I am sure that I am not the only one. Don’t stop you guys. You are more valuable than you know.

Such a beautiful, thoughtful video! I think you’re a treasure! Wow, you caught a hawk in flight on the drone video! How cool! Keep pursuing your dreams!!

A very well produced video, your approach to learning is very good. As a senior your approach to reflecting discerning is very good. You are multi skilled and have learned a lot over a short period. Continue this course and you will much success.

Everything you are doing now is what I'm working on myself. This video was a even more powerful sign for me to get at what is important in my life and be authentic in my own creations and to keep growing. Also to just start creating now even though im not exactly where I want to be ✨️ Thank you for sharing, Your light is beautiful ✨️😊

there's nothing like the asmr of harvesting veggies 💚

The bandana is such a beautiful color. I have dyed with tea and coffee and also had good results.
