 Hey guys, um, what's up? It's Kinsey. Welcome back to my channel So as you guys can probably tell from whatever I titled this video you guys have been commenting everywhere on Quintin's Instagram photos, Facebook group, my Instagram, my YouTube comments, like everything There was even a podcast review about this Yes, the rumors are true people. Um, I am moving back to Texas, which is very exciting I have so so much to update you guys on like an unbelievable amount to update you guys on I'm honestly, I thought about this video Honestly, not quite a lot, but I just know I wanted to like just talk to you guys as like a friend because I feel like you Guys are my friends. Oh my gosh Quintin's literally at my family house in Texas And he's like Beth got a huge air fryer, which is my step mom. Anyways, I don't know I'm just gonna like tell you guys what's been going on Update you guys on life. Um, the reason I've kind of held off on filming this video is because one Obviously from the start this was like so such a like between me and God type thing and like mentors in my life And then I didn't want to like I don't know like even with friends. I think this is the something that like was so serious in my life and like such a big decision to make that I Don't know there was just like a lot of things This is like the one thing normally I'm that person who will be like updating ten close friends of mine in my life at the same time like always But with this one I was like really like okay. No, I need to like go to people who are older than me only like mentor type people in my life um Obviously like my best friend Maddie chat from home kind of knew the whole time But other than that like honestly no one really here like friend wise me look I had to just kind of like make the decision For myself and like know that that was the right decision to make while also making like a wise decision under other people Like I think making decisions when you're isolated and you're not under like any sort of authority or leaders or anything Can be kind of like a little bit. I don't know like a little bit risky It's not necessarily my vibe totally whatever you want to do for me personally Like I care a lot about having people whom in my life who are like older than me who know way more than me who have already done what I've done um so that I Can make less mistakes basically by learning from their mistakes so that makes any sense this black cord is gonna bother me so much When I'm adding this video, but I'm not gonna move at this point, but yeah So it's a lot to update you guys on I said that so many times I'm subscribed if you guys are new here a house tour is coming in like two days I already filmed it when I was home for break. So this story it kind of It kind of started Thanksgiving break kind of really it started Like two plus years ago. So before I started ZLC which was January of two years ago. So like exactly two years ago the program is two years So I just finished it like last month. Um, and if you guys don't know what the LC is It's like the the college internship thing that I was a part of Anyways, so the winter break before I was going to start ZLC I I don't know why I just always kind of knew that I felt like I was gonna end up back in Dallas Like I felt like something was gonna happen and at the time I didn't necessarily want that I think LA was still kind of new to me. I Thought like I don't know like I think I just like did it I think it's what I took Texas for granted kind of and to I just had a lot more life to live here Which is dramatic because I'm keeping my place in LA you guys will see well, we'll get to this story Um If you guys don't care to go and listen to the rest of the story Um, I just so you guys can just like click out now. Seriously. Um, I got a house in Texas a townhouse It's very cool And I'm gonna be keeping the place in LA and I'm just gonna go back and forth home base will be Texas Anyways going back to when I was saying I had always kind of felt like that was gonna happen And it was like a really deep dark fear in my soul that I was like, I don't know like I almost felt like I'm trying to I used to any church churchy type words, but like calls in a sense like I felt like that was Where what was gonna happen? And I always thought it would be like church related kind of and like I don't know like I I don't know I'm trying to like give you as many details as possible. So there's like less questions But I'm sure there's gonna be a lot of questions So I'll do like an Instagram Q&A probably tomorrow if you guys want to follow me But yeah, I like felt that and at the time I really didn't want to be the Texas at all I'm back. I don't know. I was just like I'm in LA forever, blah, blah, blah so Yeah, those two years ago, then she's like, all right. We'll look go to DLC whatever and then I Went to the program Honestly, totally forgot about it. Like I was so focused on DLC. I really thought I was in a little in LA forever I was like so sad I'm moving to Malibu I always love Texas and I was like I love living there and stuff But like work wise everything wise my friends like dating whatever everything was here So I was like absolutely not And I was like maybe I buy a house there like later on in my life like at 30 or something But I don't think I'd like live there full-time whatever so yeah, um two years passed by I finished DLC and Towards the end of that I Look back now in the past like nine ten months It's been so obvious that this is kind of been like the setup to what was gonna happen But at the time I like didn't notice it literally at all So just things that kind of like gotten a little like different not different But like things here were like kind of changing a lot of friendships were kind of changing and by a lot I mean not that many but just like things were changing. Okay, and that makes any sense and Not that's a reason to leave But I think it just kind of adds to like oh, maybe that's why that happened Not that these are reasons that I left if that makes any sense like in my I'm not like leaving LA I'm just like going to where I feel like I'm supposed to be does that make sense? This is a very lovely video. So anyways, I Another thing too that I think of in the past year That's so funny now that like really really really stood out to me is so someone like really close to me was sharing a story and she's basically saying She'd like move out of the country and it was a huge thing And she was a big home body before and like didn't like change It was like for her to move from the country that she did to like the US It was like this really crazy thing and no one has seen it coming She was like I would probably be the last person I've ever really saw around me to end up Going like to moving out of the country But she's like I look back and like the year before the move I see how like God is preparing my heart and God was like growing me and changing me So that when we got the go or when the time came I would be ready and prepared for that for some Reason that like stood out to me so much and I remember like telling so many people that story and I was like Yeah, it's just like I don't know. It's just so cool to me Like it's almost like comforting blah blah blah just like randomly literally guys I swear did not one time think that it was because that was what's happening to me Like I was just like oh my gosh. That's like so cool like but I never thought about oh like that's you know That's kind of what's happening to me. So that was in like last semester at some point Anyways, um, yeah, so we go back to Christmas or no we go back to Texas for Thanksgiving and Christmas at that point. I am Not even like thinking about it. I like at that point. It kind of was like, okay I'm probably gonna be off my program. It's like two years is up I Didn't want to end up leaving I talked about this briefly because I was like I'm comfortable here I'd rather just another semester go longer than I like was supposed to be there whatever because it's easier It's comfortable. I was basically thinking for a change and then I was like no I can't make like every decision based out of fear. So anyways Thanksgiving break We go to Texas. I remember at one point Quentin was like talking about us like road tripping somewhere for like a church and I was like I swear if in my head I was like I swear if we go to the church and We're like, oh, I think we're supposed to move here I will be so mad because I hated the location that it was in and it's weird now that I even had that thought because that wasn't like a thought that I was having before and Then Yeah, basically we were in Texas long story short. We both I have been kind of thinking it before even saying it We both literally set the like the exact same thing like okay. This is kind of weird But I'm kind of feeling this and it was like Genuinely both of us individually were feeling this this wasn't like a I was like hey, let's move to Texas Or he was like hey, let's move to Texas like We are both very stubborn and so like for us to make that decision, especially like right now Would literally take a move of God like it literally like we're both also like go only gonna go where we like feel like God is like Calling us to go essentially so that was just like literally not gonna happen Obviously, I know like I was gonna believe that honestly. I just like I literally don't care But yeah, that's the story with that so He was okay interesting There's like a few reasons why he was like let's pray like we'll pray about it. Oh, whatever three days later We got like something was announced that like we were literally praying to see if it would happen And it was announced it was like, okay, that's so crazy There was like so many other things and I was like I literally lost desire like I don't know how to describe it But I woke up one morning Chris Thanksgiving break and I was just like we literally talk about moving to Malibu all the time We would always talk about like both of us when it's on sunset cuz like that's where we work out or I work out mainly But it's a good area. Anyways, we were just talking about this stuff all the time and like LA It's like what we want to do future blah blah blah all the time We have this conversation and like I don't know how to describe it But I lost like literally all desire to live in LA like and not in the sense of I'm like Oh, I'm over it like I'm on to something new like it was just like kind of weird because at that point I wasn't like a hundred percent But I was like I literally have no desire to like stay here full-time like I Love this place, but like I don't want to be here full-time anymore My heart is like not here. So anyways, we were like that's really interesting whenever we come back to LA I talked to like some leaders and stuff He like talks to people as well and then I was like, this is so weird, but like I really really Just know at that point. I was like, okay I haven't least here until at least August and I think I'll always probably keep a place here Honestly, because I'll be back all the time because I'm still recording my entire podcast and show and so many friends are out here Like so much work is out here. So I think I'll probably always have a place here but at that point I was like, I don't want to overlap on rent because Which is dumb because I'm gonna end up having to do that forever But at this point in my head, I hadn't like thought about this all so at that point I was like, okay, you know, I was thinking more of like June July April, I don't know something along those lines like not really like right now and I was like, I don't know like I'm thinking about it Whatever So at that point I was like, I know for a fact, I'm not supposed to go back to DLC So I was like, okay, I'm not gonna go back to DLC made that decision and then I went to New York and then we were like, okay We're gonna talk to my dad like December 20th literally when we get back to Texas and obviously my family's like literally cried So excited all that but Yeah, so we told him I'm like guys for someone who literally talks for a living. I'm really bad at it Oh, I got a text Quentin Coco's in Texas. This is why Coco's in Texas said all cook also Coco was so excited to see me seriously cutest What a break girls around at that point. I was like, I know I know I know Look, I think most of the time especially when you like hear from God a lot of the time It's like you move on a maybe like you're not like you can't ever be like I've heard the audible voice of God like I know for a fact You know what I'm saying like a lot of the time It's like I'm pretty sure but like there's always that 10% chance and like for sure I'm not like I know whatever but like there's just so many things that happen I'm like the most piece I've ever felt about a bad decision ever like to the point where I'm not even like sad a year ago If this was happening, I would have left like kicking and screaming and crying and now I'm just like really ready So I talked to my dad and my dad's like so pumped about this very excited I talked to my mom everyone my entire family and at that point we're like we're both pretty much set I feel like Quinton was honestly like immediately pretty set Quinton's also someone who like if you hear Stories like I'll have him on maybe share at some time But like people in our like day-to-day life all know the exact same stories because he's very good communicator But it's like he's like acts on faith Done will take a step thing great things happen to him Whatever gift a little gift of faith kind of thing and I was like no like I'm pretty sure but also like I'm very I think Internally especially like I didn't want anyone to sway my decision because I was like I'm not gonna move unless I feel like I'm like supposed to move so Yeah, I think finally when we got to like around winter break. We both like individually like made our decisions So we talked to my dad like I said 15 times And then at that point we were like, okay At that point I was like, okay I just want to like look at places for fun So I at least know like the area I want to live in like kind of a feel the vibe I don't know like I grew up in the suburbs of Dallas So like I'm from Texas originally, but I didn't like spend every single day like in Dallas my dad now lives in Dallas But he still has a house in their suburbs like in my hometown So I was like I want to like go around more. I've only ever like I haven't spent that that much time in the city Especially because it's like very up and coming everything's new like I'm very confused. There's a lot of juice places It's very wild So my mom isn't real wasn't real estate So she like connected me with a realtor and then we were looking around at first. I was looking to rent places and then basically long story short my dad like Has things rents them whatever and he was like I will Basically he ended up this townhouse loved it I'm renting to buy from him and then I'll end up just buying it like I have to pay for literally everything now so Yeah, I'm like renting to buy for my dad, but it's like we bought the house if that makes any sense It's kind of confusing, but it benefits both of us. So it was like a good decision So he was like honestly you should look to just buy instead of renting So I was like that's actually really good idea, especially because Texan is gonna be home base So like I'm sure like my place is here. We'll switch or whatever But like as far as the place in Texas like it just makes more sense. It was a better idea So We started looking I honestly was just looking for fun this day The day that I vlogged when you guys were all confused We were looking for my dad But like we were also looking for me and I just still wanted to vlog the experience But like obviously I couldn't like actually share what was going on because we hadn't talked to everyone in LA yet And like that's just disrespectful So I think it was at the third of the fourth townhouse I fell in love with it and I was like this is the best place like it needs to be like completely painted and Like the cabins are getting redone and all that it's all getting redone already But I was like this is literally so perfect. My dad was like this place is so great It's such a great investment because you're gonna end up making like when I turn around and sell it I'm gonna end up making a lot of money off of it so Yeah, um anyways we ends up He put an offer in on the house and then there was two other offers It had been on the market for like 60 days with no offers the hour that we put in or the afternoon that we put in the offer Like two other people Put in an offer one was like 3,000 below us or something and the other one was like I pretty much our exact same offer But they picked us so beautiful It is a two bedroom two and a half bath Townhouse I have a whole roof top to myself. It's unreal It is literally so freaking cool, and then I'm a two-car garage. It's technically four stories. I have two balconies It's so cool. So we have a lot of moving blocks and things coming up But yeah, so literally that happened in the 27th Like I just don't know how to describe it I'm like I know this is a God thing and everything is just like worked out so well, and I've never Felt more peace about something or like kind of just ready for something ever though. It is January 22nd right now I am we're closing on the house on February 3rd. I'm flying taxes on February 2nd I'll be there at least in the month of February I don't have my like travel of what I'm gonna be back and forth between LA and Texas finalized yet I'm thinking I'm probably gonna go back to like a week in March, and then I'm gonna go back for two weeks in April To this record and like for Coachella But yeah, that's kind of my life Update I am moving to Texas, but I am keeping my place in LA It just would make sense work wise and important to know if I were to come Like it with how much I need to be coming back I would actually spend more on Airbnb's and I went on my rent So that's one thing too. I have roommates. I would have never like Can't not cancel the lease. I would have never ended a lease early One ever anyways and two like I have roommates here anyways, so it just makes more sense to keep a place here I'm pretty set on just keeping a place here. I don't know what my life is gonna look like in August I don't know what things will be this lease at this house is up in August So as of right now I'm hoping that I'm just gonna end up like moving to us Hollywood like renting a room for one of my friends or Something or like sharing room with someone to barely even gonna be here, but then living like mainly in Texas I also want to some more time in New York And we do have studios in New York and my manager has office like has people there I do want to spend a lot more time in New York basically up until August It's kind of like my trial test run to see if I still want to keep my place in LA If that makes more sense or if it makes more sense to not keep my place in LA But yeah, I'm really excited. I think something that I've learned Like and I just keep thinking about so much through like basically the past four years of moving or not even like Honestly, since I was like 15 16 honey because I used to literally pray for like my life to not make sense I'm outside of God. There's no other reason for this in my life other than God and I was like, okay, nothing in my I was literally like thinking of it I was like nothing in my life even makes sense like everything is so weird And then I remember that I used to pray that all the time and I was like, oh, that makes so much more sense Like I started a career at 15. I was filming videos Literally like what I'm doing right now in my bedroom at home weird, but you know, whatever Um, then I graduate early. I move out to LA at 17 Doesn't make sense because I'm 17 and I'm the senior in high school. Um I literally leave Texas the bible belt not like a church or anything in the slightest and then I go to LA And then that's where I like find God and like fall in love with the local church and all that stuff Very backwards because typically like if you're coming from the bible belt, that's like not what happened. So Then that happened. So then I move out to LA originally for school in, um, my job, obviously and I end up like doing this and then I Decide that I'm gonna go to bible college, which is very out of the way We're not would have made the most sense to just like work And then after that when I finally complete those two years at my school that I was at Now when I'm actually like doing the best I've ever done like work wise career wise growth wise Especially at the podcast like financially everything like I am literally at the prime spot to be in LA and like take all these opportunities But I'm like I just know that I'm supposed to be going to Dallas like it may not make sense to everyone But it's just like I know and I also know that like the only thing that is ever going to fulfill me is like doing What I feel like God is like calling me to do essentially So, um, yeah, I'm just like, I don't know. I feel like I've always said that like zlc was the biggest like kind of testimony of that like lesson for me of just being like I'm just gonna do what I feel called to do because that was never ever ever something I would have ever picked to do in my entire life ever literally ever And it was the best decision I could have ever made. It was so fulfilling. I've met like my lifelong I mean a lot of lifelong friends there like the best community ever so many people like I'm completely different person because of it That goes on and on but it's like that was also just like I literally was a step of faith for me And it's like now I see things and it's like I will literally never do something just because I wouldn't do it again because I've done it before and I was so miserable and so unfulfilled And now I'm like I'm just gonna keep doing this. It may not make sense right now, but like it will eventually Um, and I just know I'm gonna be more fulfilled. I know that's where I'm supposed to be So yes, I am moved back to Texas I'm literally so excited like unbelievably excited So quintons there already like I said human record was full but I hope you guys enjoyed this video This was like obviously a little bit more of like a Heart to heart if you will a little bit more open, but I'm really excited. Um Literally if you would have told me this was happening like four or five months ago Would have never believed you But I'm just really excited I know there's so many other things that I could say like this and this happened and whatever but I also could have just felt like I feel like this is where I was supposed to be And I wanted to like share more without like oversharing almost and then also just like random thoughts that I've been having But I'm really really excited Um, stay tuned subscribe if you guys are new here because we're gonna have so many moving vlogs I have to furnish an entire townhouse Um, I'm not moving any of my stuff in L.A. I'm keeping all this stuff here because it's like this is my house here And I'm just gonna have to start from the ground up there. I've bought some chairs and that's about it I'm actually about to order my couch and stuff on cv2, but I'm so excited you guys know now because it's not like a secret anymore So that's super fun, but I hope you guys enjoyed today's video Um, if this is like a little bit too turkey for you or whatever It's just like it was like one video, you know, and it's my life and like I don't even want to share So hope you guys enjoyed subscribe if you guys are new here I love you guys so much and I'll see you guys soon with so much moving content and taxes content I don't know if I said this before I did I leave February 2nd So like a week from the time you guys are seeing this video I think But I love you guys and I'll see you guys soon.
