Sometimes, we just need to hear things that are hard to hear. And what’s better than hearing it from people who don’t know us personally but who we can totally relate to? For sure, there comes a time in your life when you find it better to hear advice from strangers than hear unwanted input from those people around you. Not saying that the people around you give the wrong advice; it’s just that it sometimes feels weird to hear things from them.

The things we see and the people we surround ourselves with can influence our thoughts and way of living, which is why I’m so big on choosing the right influencers to follow on social media. It’s hella important to filter the things you consume online. At the end of the day, only you have the power to control what you expose yourself to.

About These Female Self-Improvement YouTubers

These female motivational influencers have contributed so much to people’s well-being. They cover everything from spiritual mindsets to self-discipline to planning daily routines, which if you think about it, can contribute to people’s career and financial aspects in some way. Some of them also talk about modern social issues and psychological thinking, if that’s your cup of tea.

Think of these women as kind of like your big sisters on the internet—they like to help a girl out. It’s what they do. There’s never been a week where I didn’t watch one of these channels. And I cannot wait to share with you seven of my favorite intellectual, empowering, and literally life-changing YouTube influencers.

Lumma Aziz

This Filipino-Armenian YouTuber is best known for her 3 months of heartbreak documented video that has gained almost 3 million views as of the moment. Her breakup content videos feel so raw and authentic that they attract even male audiences who can very much relate to her situation. It’s so amazing of her to share her vulnerable side with the online world, and that’s what makes her videos even more special.

Aside from talking about relationships and breakups, she also does these pep talk-type videos where she empowers women by telling them how to become the best version of themselves.

I started getting back to consistently writing in my journal because of her.

Here are three videos to get a glimpse of what her channel is all about:

–3 months of heartbreak, documented
–STOP SENDING THEM ENERGY (A PEP TALK)
–HOW TO BE HAPPY SINGLE (A PEP TALK)

Lumma Aziz was first an influencer in the fashion and beauty niche, mostly promoting swimwear. And eventually created more of that pep talk video content as her audience grew in the wellness niche.

Lavendaire

I first discovered Aileen Xu or Lavendaire when YouTube algorithm recommended her channel. The first Lavendaire video I watched was her 5-minute guided meditation, which I now use on a daily basis.

Aileen does DIY videos, habits and productivity tips, travel packing organizing hacks, and of course self-care talks. Lavendaire is my go-to channel when I’m looking for guided meditation and positive affirmation videos. Her calming voice makes her videos the perfect accompaniment to meditation sessions.

Here are three videos to get a glimpse of what her channel is all about:

–5 Minute Guided Morning Meditation for Positive Energy ☀️
–23 Habits of Highly Successful People ⭐️
–what to do when you feel like doing nothing (unmotivated, burnt out, unproductive)

If you’re a very spiritual person, I highly recommend watching her channel. She has videos on astrology and tarot reading too, if you’re into those things.

Simonesquared

If you’re looking for a YouTube channel that talks about lifestyle, psychological mindset, and sometimes even fashion, you should definitely check out Simone Simmons’ channel, simonesquared on YouTube. She can be random at times, and that’s what’s unique about her content. While learning a thing or two from her videos, you’re also in for some fun because this girlie possesses a good-weird sense of humor, which is very evident in the way she edits her videos. Self-awareness and entertainment? It’s like watching the best of both worlds.

Here are three videos to get a glimpse of what her channel is all about:

-how i eat EVERYTHING i want 😎 and don’t gain weight (& have abs lol)
–21 PSYCHOLOGY TRICKS that will *legit* CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
–how to build the PERFECT wardrobe like a celebrity & always SLAY!!!

She also has two other YouTube channels, simonesimmo and simonesquared 2.0.

Lana Blakely

Leave it to Lana Blakely if you’re looking for videos that discuss self-love and building stronger relationships with people. Just like Lumma Aziz, Lana also built a reputation for sharing dating tips. She shares her struggles and explains what solution is best for them.

Here are three videos to get a glimpse of what her channel is all about:

–I used to be insecure and envy others. Here’s my advice.
–Goodbye, online dating.
–11 simple things that make anyone instantly more attractive 🙂

And if you’re a book enthusiast, she also talks about them books on her YouTube channel. In fact, she initiated a book club in 2019 but is currently inactive.

Olisunvia

This content creator’s a little bit different compared to others I mentioned because her videos are a form of social commentary, where she discusses her perspective on society and its issues. While her content might not revolve around the traditional notions of ‘self-care’ and the like, being intellectual and having a say on different topics is somehow a form of personal growth for me personally.

I find Liv’s videos the most interesting because her content is usually about controversial topics—just the perfect stimulating discourse that I need. If you’re looking for a YouTube channel that can expand your philosophical intellect and make you aware of Gen Z social issues, Olivia’s channel is your next stop, no doubt.

Here are three videos to get a glimpse of what her channel is all about:

–our conception of love is messed up.
–everything wrong w/ “romanticize your life”: eurocentrism, hedonism, unrealistic, etc.
–the desire to be sad: “tragically beautiful” art & romanticizing mental illness

By the way, totally obsessed with her y2k fairy grunge goth fashion style.

Mina Le

Mina Le is a fashion and culture commentator and a film critic. But why do I label her as a self-improvement influencer?

I personally view social commentary-type videos as part of the personal growth category. It’s the thoughts and perspectives shared across various topics—they act as a guiding moral compass, subtly imparting hidden life values and lessons.

Here are three videos to get a glimpse of what her channel is all about:

–“toxic” femininity: what’s up with girlbloggers, female manipulators, and femcels?
–“CONFIDENCE” is a cult
–tiktok is kind of bad for fashion

It’s not your typical self-care content, but I swear, this channel is worth binge-watching. Mina Le has a podcast as well.

Thewizardliz

It’s crazy that almost every woman of my age that I know in real life watches Thewizardliz. Her YouTube growth has been insane, with almost all of her videos hitting millions of views.

Sure, some folks might find her words a bit in-your-face and self-centered, but Liz’s videos are one of those pieces of advice that hit like a brick. She’s got this charisma that draws you in and a strong personality. An awesome speaker, I’d say. The one that really stuck with me was her take on having a delusional confidence and her video ‘How to stop being lazy and pathetic‘.

Some of her viewers misinterpret it when she says things like, “Becoming selfish is the best thing I ever did.” I mean, of course, she isn’t implying that you should become selfish to the point where you stop caring about other people’s situations. Truth is, it’s just a strong-sounding phrase for ‘self-care’—without the whole narcissistic vibe. Liz just speaks so straight to the point that it could sound wrong to other viewers.

She’s like that one friend who’s not afraid to drop truth bombs for your own good.

Here are three videos to get a glimpse of what her channel is all about:

–This video will make you confident
–You are a clown
–I don’t care if you don’t like me, you don’t even like yourself

There are a lot more personal growth and lifestyle influencers out there, but so far, these are the best self-improvement YouTube channels that I regularly watch and highly suggest to you. These are the channels I like to binge-watch whenever I’m about to eat my meals, y’know?

Watching their videos literally changed my life, and so sharing their platforms with you is the best thing I could do for them. Actually, these women are the ones who gave me the idea to start this blog. When I hit rock bottom in the middle of ’22, I found comfort and peace in their pep talk videos—they became my lifeline. These YouTubers became more than simply figures on a screen for me; they became big sisters and internet best friends who helped me get out of a rut. It was through this experience that I felt compelled to be that guiding light for others in need, just as I once was.

So, if you want to start having a healthy mindset and building great habits, take the first small step now and give their channels a visit. You can thank me later.
