So, I would like to introduce to you Sheila Bynum, who is a practicing midwife of 40 years, having worked in the National Health Service for most of that time. Sheena was one of the UK's first consultant midwives, and as head of midwifery, successfully helped to lead the development of three birth centers in East Lancashire. As well as being an international speaker, Sheena provides consultancy services to both NHS trusts and to organizations globally, helping them to support normal physiologic childbirth. With her midwife daughter, Anna, is the proud owner of the Practicing Midwife Journal and an exciting online learning program, all from Eternity.com. Sheila's Midwifery memoirs, Catching Babies, is a Sunday Times bestseller and her seminal book The Roar Behind the Silence, Why Kindness, Compassion and Respect, Matter and Midwifery Care, jointly edited with Sue Down, is being used as a resource to improve maternity care throughout the world. Sheena and Sue have recently edited their second book, Squaring the Circle, researching normal childbirth in a technological world in 2019. Sheila was awarded an OBE in 2011 for services to midwifery and was made an honorary fellow of the Royal College of Midwives in 2015. In 2016 and 18, she received honorary doctorates from Bournemouth University and the University of Central Lancashire, and in 2017, she was made a visiting fellow at Bournemouth University. Her personal and midwifery related website is sheenabyrum.com. Sheena is committed to the humanization of childbirth, to maximizing normal physiologic birth processes, and for all women to experience a positive birth. The global onslaught of medical technology as a means to improve safety continues to influence childbearing. This physiology and autonomy and her work to reverse this trend is ongoing. So I'm going to turn it over to Sheena, here we go, here we go, here we go, here we go. Did we lose you, Sheena? We're not hearing anything. Sheena, can you hear us? Okay, we can't hear you at all, Sheena.  Yes, I think I'm sort of... Ah, there you go. Okay. Hello everyone, I'm so sorry about that. I just had some feedback on my speakers, on my earpieces, so I had to take them off. So sorry about that. But thank you very much for that wonderful introduction, Catherine, and it's just brilliant to be here. I can't believe the time in my kitchen in Lancashire in England, and I'm surrounded by all my midwifery sisters and student midwives. So it's just great to be here. So yeah, sorry for the slow start. So I'd like to thank you all for joining, and I'd like to thank all the mothers and fathers who appear in my slides. And I'd also like to dedicate this, my talk, to all midwives and student midwives around the world. And a special mention to Professor Leslie Page, as a lot of Leslie's work has influenced mine and especially my presentation this evening. So just one moment and I'm just going to move that across. So the reason why there's a world on my front slide is because actually the humanisation of birth is of global importance. And actually what Leslie Page says that it's as critical as climate change, and yet it's given less attention. So now more than ever it's important, especially with this pandemic and the situation within the world, we really have to focus on what really matters during the childbirth journey. So welcome to everyone, for all of you in every country of the world, wherever you're coming from, you're really welcome to listen to my talk this evening. And I'm so excited that you're here to join me. And if you've stayed up late like I have, then I'm delighted that you've done so. So let's celebrate together. So with us all, I think even during a pandemic like this, even during really difficult, distressing times, we have to remember that we matter, mothers and babies matter, families matter. And just, you know, we have to try and celebrate and remember the absolute joy in our roles as midwives. And picking up on the ICM's slogan for this year and their focus is on making sure that we do celebrate, that we demonstrate, so speak out when things aren't right, that we mobilise ourselves and our colleagues and that we unite with others to make sure that the mothers and babies are kept safe, as well as us too. I just want to remind you of the evidence base behind midwifery and behind midwives. So coming from a base of the mother and baby and her family as a basis, there's an enormous amount of evidence. And I know that you probably all know this, but for student midwives in the room and anybody else, I'm just going to give you a little reminder just before we move on to the global situation at the moment. So we have the midwifery series and telling us that midwifery is a vital solution. So this for me was probably the most important thing that has happened in my career in terms of evidence base and in terms of letting the world know just exactly what midwifery can do. And then moving on to the scope of midwifery, seeing that actually we as midwives and when we're practicing midwifery can actually sort of help women in every situation. We're there through thick and thin in every possible scenario and that our medical colleagues are only needed for a small part of that. And that part as well, we're needed for too. So it's just really kind of thinking about all the things that we do for mothers and babies to help them through their journey of becoming parents and the vast sort of impact that we can have when we do our role to the best of our ability. So just just as a reminder, just for me, this framework of quality, maternal and newborn care is something that I kind of face all my work on because I feel that it's absolutely integral to all that we do. And again, the evidence is there to say that 80 percent of of maternal and newborn deaths can be prevented with quality midwifery care. And when we look at the key messages from the strengthening quality midwifery education document that sort of reiterates that and says tells us that with when we work to international standards and we have an education that's appropriate and that we're regulated and licensed and we work within professional teams, then we can avert 80 percent of maternal deaths or births and neonatal deaths. And on top of that, with quality midwifery care, it improves 50 other health related outcomes. And underneath that, you can see quite clearly that this document tells us from the evidence that actually it's very important that midwives immobilise during situations like humanitarian situations like our pandemic that we're in now. And actually, the countries with the most with the high maternal deaths face a significant shortage of midwives. So that in itself is telling us a very important message. And the evidence is clear as well that actually relations, relational care, relationships built with midwives and midwifery led relational care reduces interventions during the childbearing journey, unnecessary interventions and also women like it. So women like the experience of having that type of care. So what's happening in childbirth? So just moving away slightly just to kind of think about what's going on. Well, we have that we know very well that there's there's in some countries, there's too little support, too little intervention, too little resources, resources needed for mothers and babies. And then in others, there's too much. And if you haven't read this this paper, this document, this series, then please do because it's absolutely integral to make trying to improve maternity care for the whole world. So when we look at the kind of inside that those statistics, you can see clearly that this is just some countries but showing the huge variation within countries of this is just one marker, which is there in section. And why is it that there's such enormous variation when there shouldn't be? And not only are there variations in countries between countries, but there's some time there is variations in countries within countries and also there's variations within towns and cities. So we have to really understand that and keep looking and questioning why that is happening because it shouldn't be. Countries like America, for example, that have that high income country have a rising maternal death rate, which this is quite a shocking statistic that women in the U.S. are 50 percent more likely to die in childbirth than their own mothers, which is quite significant for me too because I've got family living in America and their caesarean section rates have skyrocketed by 500 percent in just one generation. So the Lancet series on and the Figo paper telling us how to stop caesarean sections epidemic is very clear and that we have to make sure that we think about the way that this will make sure that all the caesareans that are done are necessary and how we do that is very important. And I'll come on to that very shortly. But this this kind of like idea that and not like this this statement that actually caesarean section rates are more likely of sorry, of more than 10 to 15 percent aren't they're unlikely to improve maternal and perinatal outcomes. And that really is kind of, you know, if you think about that, that's showing that actually women that are having them are having a necessary if women are having them unnecessarily, then their their operation really isn't needed. And not only is it not needed, but it's potentially causing ill effects. Also women are telling us more and more women are telling us that they're unhappy with their childbirth experience and not just unhappy but traumatized. So women that are surviving, they're not just that they're not thriving. They're actually feeling distressed and unhappy and moving out of normal care, normal care that they can access to to really rejecting sometimes maternity services. And that's in every country around the world. This is happening. Disrespect and abuse is becoming more acknowledged. And this this goes right from the slapping of women through to organisational barriers to withholding treatment, withholding information, giving wrong information and also the use of clinical guidelines in appropriate ways. So it's a huge topic and one that we have to really focus on and think, how can we address this situation? What can we do about it? Because it's actually a global phenomena. So what about the pandemic? And with this, what does this bring? You know, what what how has this impacted on childbirth? We've heard from some speakers already, but we're kind of hearing about it in the news all the time and in journals and also on on social media. So these are some of the things that are being highlighted. Women's human rights are being raised to deny to the right to a birth companion and forced induction of labour, denied plans as area in section, sometimes enforces area in section, separation of mothers and babies and closure of midwifery led services. More things on top of that are being are being reported. And certainly the many organisations are looking into this and doing surveys, which is so important. So I know that if you if you know of any of these, please do comment in the comments box. Just tell me what's going on in your country, because it'd be really good to know. This is a report in a newspaper from Spain where a woman said that she had to give birth alone in the hospital in Madrid and she was separated from a partner. They didn't even test her husband. They wouldn't let him pass. She had a dreadful birth. Nobody accompanied her and she'd not been able to be with her baby. I mean, the whole the whole scenario here is absolutely tragic. So imagine the consequences for this woman and her baby and their family when this has happened. And this woman isn't alone. We're hearing more and more reports of this of this kind of scenario. So we shouldn't speak the human rights in childbirth movement, that the organization reporting on all these these situations that are happening or happening around the world. And you can read it. I think it's going to be published very soon, or it may indeed have been published already. But what they warn us is that we should be wary of any use of the pandemic to institutionalise harmful practices. And we can see, you know, even in my country, we've seen situations where services have been stopped really unnecessarily. And actually many of the many of the kind of interventions that have been put in place are breaching a woman's human rights, such as separation of a mother and baby and also separation of a mother from her her partner, her loved ones, when they want to support her during this crucial time. And you have to kind of think deeper as to why these these things are happening. Sometimes it's because of there may be an absolute shortage of staff. But in other occasions, it's because maybe maybe there's underlying reasons why this is happening. So what can we do about it, the most important part? What can we do? We really need to think of solutions to help us to overcome these barriers and these the consequence that's looking at reducing the consequences of some of the actions. First of all, let's think about what women want, what women tell us they want. And certainly this is this is from before the pandemic hit us. But I'm sure that these things won't have changed when women want to be safe. They want competent practitioners to look after them. But they all that means that they want to be clinically and physiologically and psychologically safe as well. So we keep these keep the focus of what women want right at the centre of everything that we do. The World Health Organization is very clear that all women have the right to a safe and positive childbirth experience, whether they've got COVID-19 infection or not. And that's upholding respect and dignity, compiling a choice, clear communication by maternity staff and pain relief strategies as the woman wants. And to be mobile during labour wherever she wants to be and in a birth position of her choice. These recommendations from the World Health Organization, together with others have been really helpful, especially being shared on social media, et cetera, because they can kind of try to reduce the fear that's been instilled within maternity workers, midwives and mothers and their families. So I think we've got to keep looking at the information that's coming out and sharing it as much as possible, really helpful in for graphics like that. Remembering and reading and really kind of focusing on the evidence of the short and long term implications of some of the actions that we're taking, not just during the pandemic, but even before, you know, the physiological and psychological health implications of the of the actions certainly were the over intervention of childbirth and where we're separating mothers from their families absolutely shouldn't be happening. The humanisation of childbirth really kind of brings this all together and helps us to imagine what it can be like right from the boardroom of government offices, right through to the smiling eyes behind a midwives mask. So I think wherever a woman gives birth in whatever circumstances that we can actually make a difference. The midwives who are caring for it and other maternity workers can be the ones that can transform a potentially negative experience into a positive ones just by simple things that we can do. But we have to act strategically as well, which I'll come on to in a short while. So using Leslie Page's she characterises the importance of the kind of the strategies for how to humanise childbirth. And she's actually published this again just very recently. And I think it's brilliant because you can see at a glance how we can move from one to the other. So we've got the medicalised, industrialised kind of depersonalised fragmented care. And we need to focus on respectful and relationship based care. So rather than separating mother and baby, that keeping them together, seeing them as one and when we mistrust normal physiology and focus focus on pathology and risk, then we things can really easily move from from good to bad. And we can see that, you know, every day we see the consequences of that. So let's focus on physiology of birth with using trusted. And to trust that process and also focus on solutogenesis and promoting well-being, moving from a cultural belief in safety and technology and medical intervention as the answer to evidence based appropriate care intervention when indicated. And thinking about the environment to use, you know, with kind of focusing on when you're looking at reducing risk through the environment, but looking at the environment to cultivate that support and that nurture because it actually influences birth. So these this is really kind of like looking how we can how we can improve what we're doing rather than focusing on technology, but keeping the women at the centre of the care of the care that she receives and eradicating or limiting mistrust of midwifery and scaling up midwifery. So really easy to kind of see how we can do that. And Liz Newnham, she actually did her whole PhD on this topic and has published a fabulous book, which is accessible. And you can it's really worth a read. I learned so much from reading Liz's book and her work. And Liz has also published in the Practising Midwife Journal. And she's published a series, some of which is used collaborators, including Leslie, and she's written this wonderful series of eight papers, which we're hoping to publish in an ebook very shortly. So well worth a read if you can. And actually, the professional advisory group, the the Professors of Midwifery in the United Kingdom, did a rapid review very recently for the Royal College of Midwives, helping them to kind of give direction as to where maternity services should be going during this pandemic. And if you read some of these pointers from this rapid review, you'll see very clearly to glance that it mirrors what humanisation of childbirth is all about. So here they give evidence based recommendations as to what we should be doing during the pandemic. And they just really replicate the human humanisation agenda. The ICM are clear as well, giving us this direction that in countries where health systems can support homebirth, healthy women experiencing a normal pregnancy and with support from qualified midwives with appropriate emergency equipment, birthing may be safe at home. And I know this is part of the kind of, you know, let's focus on physiology, keep birth as safe as possible with the right right appropriate transfer when it's needed. But just focusing on what women really want and what they need at the right time. So how can we do it? First of all, let's step back and think about the importance of understanding the hormonal interaction of a woman's body when she's in labour. It's interesting before labour, actually, during labour and afterwards. And it's interesting, because wherever I go around the world and I talk to midwives and student midwives and obstetricians and I ask them about the cocktail of hormones and how it how it impacts on on every aspect of a woman's childbearing journey. Sometimes individuals tell me that they're either forgotten or they weren't quite clear about it. So whether you really understand it or not, it's really worth revisiting. And Dr. Sarah Buckley has got a fabulous website where you can access lots of resources free of charge and they're good for everyone to kind of revisit. I've been kind of looking around the world at examples of good practice and picking up on what was happening in Indonesia. You can see how these this midwife is really helping a woman to connect with her with her body, with her mind and and and utilising the space that she's got to kind of keep her free and mobile during labour. Really good examples of women using that knowledge of physiology of childbirth. Relational care. This is an example from maternity service in the United Kingdom, where the focus is on building relationships, whether it's through continuity of care models or whether the midwife has just met that midwife, that woman for the first time, but building that relationship, that trust, that love, that kindness and that respect between each other. And this is an example from Norway where this respectful maternity care where this midwife is really listening to what the woman wanted. The woman didn't want to go into a hospital. She wanted to stay at home. So, you know, absolutely respecting that that choice. And opposite to kind of the the media images that very often come forth and we see all the time in the in the in journals, in sort of newspapers, etc.  Why are we using images like this to portray roles of midwives? This was about midwives in the Sunday times, just last week in England. So, you know, we have to try to influence the media, try to move away from from disrespect, disrespectful kind of visions of what midwives do and how women should give birth because that really matters. Moving into the the love and the care and the compassion, you know, we've been doing sort of like a small campaign around the importance of smiling behind the mask. And it was interesting because a dental nurse approached us and said, absolutely, you know, this is what we've had to learn right from the very beginning. When we're when we're working with dentists, for example, in a dental surgery, the only thing that's shown is our eyes and we can we can reassure people with our eyes. And so if you look at the difference between someone smiling behind that mask and someone not, it can make a huge difference. That connection with a woman, eye to eye contact, that smile makes a huge difference. Within a split second, never underestimate that power. And actually what it shows the woman is that you're connecting with her heart. You're connecting with that love, that build up of compassion and trust and respect. So really just try to think about that smile. And actually what we somebody else coined the the hashtag smiles. So smiling with your eyes. And so we keep tweeting that and Instagramming it all the time when women when midwives send us photographs, excuse me. Excuse me, I've got a croak in my my throat. And so that's sort of at the micro level, at our level where we're connecting with women all the time and connecting with our colleagues. Just remembering that sort of support of each other as well as the women that you're caring for. So those smiling eyes are important for your colleagues as well.  So all those acts of kindness really matter too. And also, but, you know, kind of also at the same time as well as being that compassion, compassionate, courageous midwife at that level, it's remembering that we do have to speak up. The evidence is absolutely crucial, but it's not sufficient for change. It's only when we get that evidence and we actually communicate the evidence thoughtfully and as, you know, some of my colleagues who I work very closely with do that beautifully and really help us all to understand, but we have to persistently be activists so that we can bring about change. And this is Jean DeClerc slide from Sydney in 2016 from the normal birth conference. So use your voice midwives and student midwives and all childbirth activists who are listening. Don't think that your voice isn't important. All our voices are collectively. We can really make change and challenge change because women deserve women and babies, birthing people, families deserve our very best care and they deserve the very best opportunity and we deserve it, too, as midwives. Use social media to rally your support. Make sure that you keep engaged with if you can engage with individuals on social media, we can really lobby for change again together at the touch of a button. And I've seen how that how change can how kind of how sort of the momentum can be built through social media, using it very carefully, of course. So we have lots of lots of partners, lots of organisations that can help us with this, the World Health Organization, the United Nations, the the International Confederation of Midwives, Jepaygo, we've got we've got birth rights. I know that's a UK based organisation, but anyone from around the world can actually contact them, make birth better. So many different organisations that we can access to help us to do this, the White Ribbon Alliance really, really keep engaging with them and keep using their their resources to bring about change because we need them. We all need each other. So let's remember that actually if we focus on safety and not on risk on relationship based care, not system based care, we can make maternity care safer for everyone, women, health professionals and organisations. And that's from Hannah Darlan, the wonderful Hannah Darlan. And keep thinking about human rights and the principle of human dignity depends, demands that every person is treated as an end in herself and not as a means to an end. It provides a basis for respect for maternity care that treats women as capable of making their own autonomous decisions about their birth. And Leslie's quote, remember that the birth of a baby is the birth of humanity. And also another of Leslie's messages is it's also the birth of a mother. And what we have at our fingertips, the very the very power to either make that the best experience and the best opportunity for that meeting of mother and baby to happen or we can turn it into a disaster. So with our colleagues and with each other, we really have to try so hard on remembering that while we are midwives, we are here to help all those families. They need us so much. So the greatest joy is to become a mother and the second is to become a midwife. So please do remember to celebrate this wonderful occasion on the fifth of May because we are we are we are part of this humanity. We are right right there at the beginning of life. And so keep being joyous about it because it's so important. And as Franca says, she urges us to stop being well behaved and to take on our duty to advocate for a woman's right to a good birth. Never has that been more important than now. So just my last slide is that we are a feminist profession. And this is the the calling to arms. We need to harness the power and momentum of women's movements.  If the one million midwives represented by ICM, each partnered with one woman in advocacy, we could raise the voices of over two million women with the same message. So that's my intention tomorrow when I wake up on the International Day of the Midwife. So thank you so much for joining me. And I hope I hope my slow beginning didn't spoil it at all. Thank you. Well, I can see why so many students turned in to hear you. Sheena, you are very inspiring. Do we have questions in the chat box? Does anybody have a specific question for for Sheena? Heidi says, I transferred a woman for home birth and was not allowed to stay. Mom was suctioned with the doctor, never introducing herself or explaining what he was going to do. That's sad. It's so shocking. It's so shocking. And it's kind of, you know, what to do in those situations when you're when I know that it's happening sometimes with with doulas, for example, in the United Kingdom, they're they're they're being kept out, even if there's, you know, there's there's some vulnerability. And it's just how do we deal with that situation? It's very shocking. So I'm so sorry that that's happened. Has anybody got any questions for me? How do we deal with fear? OK, Caroline, thank you for asking that question. I actually I'm actually really interested in fear. And ever since I read Hannah Dolland's amazing work on how to reduce fear. So I suppose it's tackling, first of all, I would say that it's separating the fear that's real from the fear that's not real. So that's kind of, you know, looking at what the evidence is. And yet or what or what he or say is or what somebody's opinion is, but really taking on board what the evidence is. And that that goes for reports, media reports, as well as sort of clinical research evidence. But, you know, because sometimes what we do and this is human nature is we make things up. So we all have kind of our own risk risk agenda in terms of what what's acceptable to us and what isn't. And some of us are more afraid of things than others. But I know in Hannah's work, she talks about manufacturing fear. And sometimes we do that, we we kind of think all that might happen. So we'll do this, you know. And I've done it certainly since the pandemic started, since COVID, you know, came upon us because I was kind of thinking, oh, I mustn't do this and I mustn't do that when actually what that was inappropriate. So, you know, how we deal with fear is first of all, we find out what the evidence is. And then we have to really find out what it is that's frightening us and and tackling that. So so learning more about it, if it's a clinical situation or or addressing it in terms of getting help in that. So, yeah, I just think it's a personal thing and that there are there are definitely strategies. I also think self care, looking after yourself. And I know that can become a bit of a cliche, but certainly there's lots of ways that we can we can really help ourselves to to not get frantic with fear. So I certainly, since this has happened, I've been doing meditation. I've never done it before. I've been doing some yoga. I've just got an app on my phone. I've been doing it in a little room on my own. I've learned how to do it. So I just think that, yeah, we just have to address our own fear. So thank you. I hope that's OK. Any other questions? She'd love to know more about Ruth's question. So Ruth Dodds, what do you advise a student when they observe poor care and not know how to stand up and fight for a woman? OK, yeah, that's a good question, Ruth. Thank you for asking that. But I get asked that all the time, actually. That's that today. I did a session with some Rwandan student midwives via WhatsApp and they asked me the same question as well. And so I think every situation is individual.  And but you have to choose your moment and you have to. Obviously, what the person is doing is dangerous, then you'd have to intervene. But but then choose your time to talk about it. Get support from someone else. Get support from someone you trust, someone you work closely with to to help you to address that situation, because it really you really can't let things happen that are inappropriate, especially if it's if it's poor care and the woman isn't receiving the right care. I always think about when I was sick in hospital and if somebody did something for me and they were giving me poor care and I saw that someone else was watching how I would feel about that. So keep that focus in your mind. Keep the woman and her baby or her family at the center of all your decisions. But do get help, Ruth, to do it. Do get support because sometimes it's hard to do it on your own. But it's worth it. It's worth it getting that help to make sure that you do address it. Excellent advice. And I know that is definitely a question and a conversation that is ongoing with practicing midwives and student midwives. But our time is just about up. So we do have to wrap up the conversation. I think.


Hi guys, what is up? Welcome to my channel. For today's video, I'm doing a video that I've never done before. And it's interesting to me. I don't know how interesting it's going to be to you, but we will find out. I am not going to be going over the top 10 best-selling items through my affiliate links. So basically, these are the items that we can all collectively say I convinced you to buy. So if you wanna see what those items are, then just keep watching. I wanna thank Ana Luisa for being today's sponsor for the video. I've partnered with them multiple times in the past because they have my favorite dainty jewelry. So if you aren't familiar with Ana Luisa, they are a jewelry brand that sells very high quality jewelry starting at $39 and up. One of the great things about Ana Luisa that makes them stand out from other jewelry brands is their sustainability mission. So this is what they say. I can't say it better than this. We are carbon neutral. We offset 100% of our carbon emissions starting with the sourcing of our raw materials all the way to the disposal of our pieces. So they also make their products in limited batches so that it ensures the highest production standards while also eliminating excessive waste. And fun fact, I actually didn't notice they offer a 365-day warranty if you are not happy with your pieces. I wanted to talk about them today because they are actually having their Valentine's Day sale right now. So you can get 15% off of all of their pieces. And I wanted to share with you some of the pieces that I picked out. So we'll start off with the necklace that I picked out. So this is the Miche necklace. Comes in a beautiful white velvet bag and it has this gorgeous green stone. And I have been wearing this nonstop. I think it's the perfect layering necklace. I'm really into chokers and like shorter necklaces. So this has been the perfect offset to the shorter necklaces that I have. So if you're looking for something that's perfect for layering, this won't overdo it but it adds a little bit of something to your stack. We'll put these on now. I will show you how they look. I've been wearing these, I think in like the past five videos, these are called the Duo Huggies. I love Huggies. They're these tiny gold earrings. So they're very, very delicate but these are really cool because it has like a hoop in the hoop. And I like wearing this with the whole stack necklaces because it adds something, adds a little bit of fanciness with the gold to your ears but it also doesn't take away from what's going on with the necklace stack. So you can see it's a hoop with a little extra something. And then the last one that I picked out and I wanted to share with you guys comes in this really cool green bag. And this one's probably my favorite. I will put up some close-ups right here also on the screen but you can see it's this diamond little huggy. This is called the Elise with this cute little teardrop and it's super, duper cute. I love it. And this would also layer really well. I don't have a second hole but if I did that would layer really cute. So I love huggies and stacking huggies as well. So those are my picks for right now. I think they make great gifts or just a gift for yourself really. They sell those perfect kind of beginner and jewelry pieces where there's nothing too obnoxious. You know, it's great, dainty pieces. They all really go well together as well. So if you aren't sure how to layer your jewelry I feel like all of their pieces they're gonna look good if you just put them all on you. So don't forget that they are having the Valentine's Day sale right now. So if you want to try out some of their pieces and you do get a good discount for this sale make sure you check the links in the description box right now to shop through my link. And thank you again to Anna Luisa for sponsoring this video. Now let's get into it. If you aren't familiar with the world of affiliate links or how they work before I get into the best sellers let me just give you a little information. So I personally use magic links for my affiliate links and how they work is every time you click through one of the links in my description box it'll have like a magically in the name of it. Essentially when you purchase items through that link I get a small commission from that, a small percentage. Now the percentage that it gets varies from brand to brand. I would say the most common is about 5%. Some brands will be a little bit more some brands will be a little bit less but it's going to be around that 5%. Before I get into this I just want to thank any of you who at any point shopped through any of my links that is the reason I am able to have the quality that I have. I really did some upgrades in quality this year. I owe that to you guys through shopping through my affiliate links I was able to buy a new lens, new lighting redecorate this room. All of that plays into you guys purchasing through my affiliate links and I do appreciate that I'm so thankful. I love looking at analytics and numbers and how they change over time especially my magic links just to see what you guys are interested in purchasing and what I can convince you to buy. Now this isn't 100% accurate because sometimes I will just send a link to the actual website and not necessarily a specific product. So when I go to my dashboard and I click on my links for 2020 I'm going to organize it by transaction number. So this is how many people collect, you know purchase item and checked out and then that would count as a transaction for me. So we're going to start off with number 10. This was the release of the Natasha Denona mini retro. You guys picked it up from Sephora. So that was my 10th most purchased product this year from you guys and that is a beautiful palette and you'll see a pattern in brands in this video which I was not surprised by at all. And I hope you guys are loving it. It pulled a little bit more gray than green but it was something that I definitely did give a positive review for. Moving on to number nine I am honestly very shocked about this. This was something that I posted last minute when I saw it released. I was like, oh, I probably should post a link about that because I really like how it looks. And that is the ColourPop Stone Cold Fox Palette. And I think we loved it because the Natasha Denona glam, first of all it's way more expensive, you get less colors and I believe at the time it was sold out.  I also will say I might have pushed a lot of you in the direction of cool tones this year. And I did say that this was the perfect palette to get if you don't have a lot of cool tones in your collection. So I have to believe that that is why you guys picked this up. But yeah, number nine I'm actually really surprised that this was number nine but it was a bomb palette. Number eight, I am genuinely very confused. I don't remember anything about this but this happened January the beginning of 2020. My number eighth most sold product to you guys is the Pat McGrath Labs Motherships Subliminal Platinum Bronze Palette. I feel like that's not accurate. Let me double check on that because I don't even remember them selling that this year. I mean, it's sold out now but it is on the Pat McGrath website. Like that is shocking to me but apparently 65 of you picked it up or at least started shopping through that link. So that made it one of my most successful links at the very least. So number eight, the Mini Subliminal Platinum Bronze which again, that's a beautiful cool tone neutral palette. So I'm starting to see some patterns here. Number seven, Pat McGrath Mothership Divine Rose. Now this is the original Divine Rose not the Divine Rose too. I'm not surprised. Looking through my links, the Divine Rose collection from Pat McGrath was very, very popular this year as far as your interest. So even though this was a specific product, there was a lot of other Divine Rose links as far as this was available at Sephora. You guys clicked on it or the whole collection was released. A lot of you guys purchased from the collection and every time it went on sale, a lot of you guys were clicking on those Divine Rose links. I had a ton that I put out this year but this specific one for the Divine Rose palette was one of my best sellers. And obviously I didn't directly sell them to you. I hope you guys know what I mean when I say that. But as far as my affiliate links go, this one sold. So I'm not surprised because that is an absolutely stunning palette. Coming in at number six, Pat McGrath once again, Celestial Divinity. This is the collection link but I'm going to assume that it has a lot to do with the big palettes because that one came out first. So I believe most of you guys did pick up this palette which again, I am not surprised by. It was one of my favorites for the holidays and most importantly, it was one of the best deals that you could get as far as Pat McGrath eyeshadows go. I encouraged you, a lot of you to pick it up if you didn't have any Pat McGrath shadows because the value on this was so much better than some of her other palettes and I love that palette. You guys made the right choice. Number five is the ABHI Volt and Cool Tone Palette. You guys, you guys love your Cool Tone palettes. I really convinced you. So this specific link is from Nordstrom because they had a really great sale. So that is when most of you guys clicked on this link. This pretty quickly went on sale for like 50% off and the deal was already amazing to begin with but I know once I saw that it was on sale, I was like, you guys should pick this up because you're not gonna find a better deal for this palette that honestly was highly coveted. When it first came out, not a lot of people wanted this palette but then once it sold out, it was when Cool Tone started to come back in trend and then people wanted this again. So it was an amazing deal. It was the cost of less than a palette along with a full size mascara, a liquid eyeliner, which is really good and an eye primer. So I'm really excited to see that a lot of you took advantage of this sale because it really was a bomb deal. Number four, okay. So this one is not a specific item but the items were very limited. So I'm still counting it and this is a sale page that I pushed a lot this year if you were interested in trying Tom Ford. So Saks all fifth. They have a very, very curated Tom Ford collection but the items are very highly discounted. And I think the reason why most of you went onto this link was because my favorite Tom Ford quad, the Daydream palette was on here for very a great price. It was over 50% off with an additional 20% off or something crazy like that. And Daydream is harder to get a hold of because it did end up being discontinued. So a lot of you jumped on that link, you purchased from it and I hope you guys got your Daydream palette and you really liked it because that was my number four best seller and I'll put the link down below to Saks all fifth. I think it came back into stock on Saks all fifth if you're interested but you might want to wait until they have an additional sale on top of what you already purchased because that is the best best deal. So I've told you guys a few times this year of the Saks all fifth deal and I'm glad you guys listened because it's a great deal. Okay, moving on to number three, no surprise here. The Divine Rose II palette was one of the most purchased items from you guys for my links and it was a big deal for a collection. I don't know if the marketing was really great this time. I mean, marketing was really great this time but so many people were excited about it and I think part of the reason for that hype was that multi-chrome shade in Divine Rose II. We all had to have it. We all also took advantage and bought Divine Rose I as a bundle as well but this is from the original launch of the Divine Rose II collection. So I can't say maybe you guys didn't purchase the Divine Rose II palette but I'm pretty sure you did. So that's why that is at number three, great palette. Good choice once again. Okay, so this one was a shock for me. This happened towards the end of the year but my number two best seller was the Vizzy Art Mini Force eyeshadow palette set specifically. So this came out of Sephora and the deal was too good to pass up and Vizzy Art, the Vizzy Art community is very very niche. Not a lot of people love Vizzy Art like I love Vizzy Art but I'm so happy that I have cultivated this wonderful community of like-minded people who also love Vizzy Art. So these little quads were a great deal but we got an even better deal with this set. Now, I didn't love this set because the other two of the eyeshadow palettes that came out that were not included in the set were better but you all agreed that this deal was so good you couldn't pass up. Signs of a makeup order, welcome to the club. So yes, this was my second best seller as far as Ling Ling's go and I hope you guys enjoyed it. Like I said, these weren't my favorite palettes from them but the sets were so cute and it wasn't super expensive and I think that's why so many of you guys decided to purchase because it really was a great deal.  So my number one best seller was the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Face Palette and Sculpture. This is the one that came out this year and the reason why this is a best seller is because it actually ended up being on sale towards the end of the year and there was like an additional sale. Like the deal was crazy. Hourglass really doesn't go on sale specifically these palettes never go on sale. Like I've never seen their holiday palette go on sale most of the time they are sold out. They sell out pretty quickly but I think the reason why this all happened is because obviously Hourglass was not inclusive with this palette and so a lot of people are beginning to become turned off by this brand and so I just don't think this palette sold very well and it ended up going on sale. I shared the information with you guys. A lot of you did take advantage of that because like I said, these do never go on sale. So I hope they learned their lesson because normally when a palette goes on sale or a product goes on sale that means it didn't sell well. There we are. Those are my top 10 best sellers from my magic links this year. So I hope you guys found this video a little bit entertaining. I'm not sure how it's gonna go but I had gotten this idea because I saw some of the fashion bloggers that I follow on Instagram. They do reward style and I see a lot of them post this week's best sellers and then they'll link a bunch of the products that sold the best that they made links for. So I wanted to do something similar for my channel. So I hope you guys enjoyed it. Again, thank you so much to Ana Luisa for sponsoring today's video. Don't forget to check out their sale and I will see you all in the next one. Bye guys, have a good one.

I hunted down every single mystery Easter egg and we're opening all of them today. Hey, what's good boys? Hope you had an amazing Easter. You're seeing this the day after. Let's have some fun. This Easter promo was absolutely insane for multiple reasons. Number one, there are tons of eggs. I have no idea what's in them. I don't go on Twitter. I don't spoil this for myself. Number two, there have been so many glitches in the last two weeks that the Madden auction house is just completely broken. Unfortunately, I didn't get to take advantage of any of them, but that's okay. I still collected every single egg, except for one, so I lied to you a little bit here. Now the one egg I did not collect was the red extravagant egg that said 99 MVP on it. Glaringly obvious that it was Patrick Mahone's Superbowl MVP. When I get done opening all my eggs, I will verify to check that it was him, but I'm not mad that I didn't get that one because I already knew it was in it. Now I do have three of the purple 350k quick sell. I'm thinking this is gold 99 ring of honor, but honestly, let's just hop right in. We'll go down the line. The first thing we'll open is this maroon egg right here. I've got four of them. It's a large egg. Dude, it was not as easy to get eggs this year either. Ooh, whoa, wait, so this large egg is a 96? That's actually really high. I thought the large eggs were gonna be like 93s. Larry Oganjoby. Do we think all of them are Larry Oganjoby or do we think... I wonder if they're all Larry Oganjoby or if this is like a random 96. Okay, let's open another one.  What is this? Maybe a 94 plus overall player? We just got a different animation. Ooh, see, this is the kind of egg that I like or even I don't exactly know what's in it. Playoffs? 96 champagne. So the lowest we got is Jerick McKinnon. We got two 96s.  My bad. Okay, so this is the same looking egg but it's a medium, maybe a 90 plus? 94 shack barret.  Have you guys ever wondered how many subscriptions you have that you completely forgot about?

Also, I don't know what the auction house is looking like right now but I have to imagine it's absolutely just torched and always gets ruined by these promos, man. Our next one is 94 Cherick McKinnon again and that closes out the maroon egg. All right, next up is this extravagant egg right here. It's actually super important that this is good because this is the egg I have on Wheel of Mud. I have one of this orange egg right here on Wheel of Mud so I'm praying this can be good. We'll see what it is. It's gotta be a sugar rush player. We knew that already. 96, oh, so it's either, it's either a 96 overall sugar rush player or a 96 plus sugar rush player. I didn't realize they gave Davis Mills a card. It's actually a pretty good card. 96, Davis Mills to start us out. Let's clean up this orange egg then. I'm really hoping that I'll pull at least 198 because that means we'll have a chance to get a 98. Wheel of Mud, we get 96 Grant Delpit next. This egg only quick sold for 110,000 training so I wouldn't be too shocked if it's just a 96 and you can't get a 96 or better. There's 96 Oghan Joby. It is very realistic that this is just a straight up 96. Yo, if anybody pulled a 98 in this egg please let me know in the comments because I wanna know whether I should be excited for Wheel of Mud or not. I don't wanna get my hopes up but so far we're all 96s. We have two of these remaining.  Give me a little variety here, gentlemen. At least it's an exact one-to-one training ratio if this is only 96s. Hey, I think it is only 96s unless I got a little unlucky there but that's okay. 110k training, I got 696 overall sugar rushes. I'll take it. I feel so strongly that this is a random ring of honor but I'm gonna hold off on it. I'm just gonna let it sit there for a little bit. Let's do this large egg right here, the light blue large egg with blue and red on. Ooh, ghost of mud, 94 Tua, oh no. These aren't ghost of mud players, are they? This is probably similar to the other large egg. Oh my God, they're actually ghost of mud. Holy fuck, wait, is it just Tua?  Wait, is this really just a Tua egg? Hey, we have one more. I think it might actually be ghost of mud. Oh, it's not. Whoa, whoa, whoa.  So that large egg, it might've just been 94 plus overall players and I just happened to get Tua Tungvailoa back to back.  Now it may be the case that all these large eggs are the same thing. So let's open this large egg next. This is the blue one with yellow and pink on it. Is this a 94 plus player? Potentially? Hmm, 96 for Sean Slater. That's a good way to start it. Okay, let's bounce around. Let me do this yellow large egg next.  Not even kind of. For these to be this good, the large eggs is really shocking to me. This is Electronic Arts we're talking about, dude.   Hey, dude, these keep popping out. 96 is the large eggs. I'm gonna rip all the large eggs, man. Although I will say, the highest I've gotten is the 96. So I keep getting 94s or 96s. In fact, I don't even think I've gotten a 95. So I wonder if it's capped. I wonder if it's 94, 296, and you can't go. There's my first 95. We get Team of the Week to Marco Murray. I think it might be capped though. So it's nerfed to some degree. I don't think I could pull a 97 plus in this. 95, Derek Johnson right there. That's a heater. I don't like the large eggs, man. I haven't even opened a single small egg yet. Large egg, Cameron Wake. Got some dope. Team of the Years in that one, okay. Yeah, this blue one's been spitting out some Team of the Years. Let's see if it continues the trend. Team of the Year legend. Oh, wait, who is this then? Brunel. Apparently that Mark Brunel is actually a really, really good quarterback. Not bad. He might be worse. Oh, no, wait. I'm back to back him. Hey, Nick Mangold.  Dude, Nick Mangold is like my all-time center. Like if I was building a team, like my greatest of all-time team, I'm putting Nick Mangold at center, bro. That's fire, dude. Whoa, we're banging the legends right now. Marshall Yanda, building that O-line. I'd just say we're banging that whatever. Large egg, baby. Come on, what we got? Hey, Kurt Warner, we'll take it. We'll take it. So what do we got left? We've got the three potentially Ring of Honor. If it's not Ring of Honor, I'd be so depressed. We've got what I think is great-ired guardians in this extravagant combine. Two small eggs, two more small eggs, three medium, three medium, four medium. We got four of, I think this is free agency. Two medium, two medium. Wow, we got so much left.  All right, let's do a small egg. We're gonna do the gray and yellow small egg.  There's nothing wrong with that, man. I'll take that.  If these are 90 pluses, this is really good. What's up? Oh my God, small egg, 96 miles, Jack. Let's go. Oh, what a dopamine rush, man.  Had to call Capital One, say look, my Fortnite account got hacked. I just wanted some V-Bucks, get it all refunded, scam those frauds. Whoa, wait, Media Max got an A.K.A in it.   Another team of the week. That's my law, we'll take that out of the medium egg. So, a medium egg just had a 91 in it. So, I'm guessing the medium eggs are probably a 91 plus. Say we get 93 briefs all right here. Card was a nasty when it came out. Another small egg right here. It's a little yellow small egg, and it's gonna have, okay, so this is 90 plus because that's a 90 harvest. Ooh, that's where the bag comes from. So, the small egg could be 88 plus. I just happened to pull a mile's Jack in the small egg. Another medium egg right here. We get the light blue medium egg, another A.K.A player. Come on, baby, give me that. Big play sleigh. Another medium egg. This is that same one, the light blue. Looks like they might've all been A.K.A's. Tom Brady the goat, 94 overall. Lots of mediums left. Dude, these mediums are juiced. I'll take it. Look at that series of Redux. We get 91 Jordan Davis. Looks like the medium eggs might have a theme. Yeah, this medium egg is just series Redux players and that last one was just A.K.A's. So, there's Cordero Patterson, 94. Record breaker, that's a savage card. And this should be another Redux then. Yup, another Redux. It's 91 record breaker Lamar Jackson. I love that card when it came out too.  Dude, I tell you what.  So, if you're interested, make sure you check it out.   Like, take this foyocon of Louis Conn, for example. How good this card is is solely dependent on what discounted abilities he gets. So, he's a really solid 93 overall middle linebacker, right?  So, let's take a peek here, if it does. I assume it does.   This is a heater pack opening.   Tie law again on the medium egg. So, that was the team of the weak medium egg. So, what is this yellow medium egg? Do the colors on these, oh, it does matter. That is totally the colors of Great Iron Guardian. Yeah, this yellow is, okay. Damn, I don't think I ever wanna guess that though. They concealed that, yep. These are the GG volume ones, get Taquan Graham. So, then this maroon medium egg. Is this AKA? Oh, playoffs. Get Matt Breda to start out. Oh my God, Matt Breda is still in the league. We'll run it back. So, I'm assuming these are all playoffs though. That is also technically a playoffs promo. 94 mile sanders. We got a small and a medium left before we go into a massive rush on extravagant eggs. That shit's gonna be wild. All right, we'll start out with this little small egg right here. So, these were the legend eggs. This small legend egg has Ed Reed and our final blue medium egg. So, this should be a 91 plus legends player. It's gonna be 91 Mike Ulster. And if it is, I get to bang your mom. It looks, I'm banging your mom. Oh, and now the moment you've all been waiting for. I made you wait for it, man. Three extravagant eggs. One of this peach pink one. This is the last one. I finally found it. It was so hard for me to find this egg. Five of what I think is Super Bowl. Four of this pink one. Three of what looks like combine six of the blue and yellow and three ring of honor. I'm gonna start with my one. I only have one of this peach one. Let's see if we actually got any unique players in this drop. Our player's gonna be 98 Brandon Marshall.  Oh my God, that card is nasty. He has 99 jump and he's six foot five. That's meta right there, baby. Oh, I did not realize B-Marsh was six five. Dude, he's got 82 run block. That's actually insane for a wide receiver. 82 run block, 94 truck, 93 change of direction. Impact block is 85. His juke is 99. Catch and traffic is 98. His break tackle is 99. It's a fucking, this is Derek Henry. This is a six foot five Derek Henry who can catch. Brandon Marshall, that's sick.  I was kinda hoping that one of these eggs would have a unique player, a player that wasn't already in the game. Doesn't look like that's the case, but that's okay.   Now we go to game changers. I'd be shocked if there's any unique cards in here, but I think this is just gonna be a 98 overall game changer. And it is, we start with 98 Kevin Byard. Honestly, not a very good card.  Kevin Byard. All right, next one up is 98 Patonio. That's card is nasty. This is a huge one to get right here. 98 Patonio, an end game left guard. Just 96 plus in every single offensive line. It's a 98 pass block. I love seeing like the goofy stats that are really good. Like, look at that, bro. He's got 76 jump. And we'll open our final game changer. Just give me someone we haven't gotten yet, baby. Somebody we haven't gotten yet. Tyson Campbell is a savage. Tyson Campbell is so good too, man. Six foot one. So he's a tall corner with amazing stats. Tyson Campbell, that's the move. We actually started out slow there because Byard I think is one of the worst ones, but Patonio and Tyson Campbell are amazing. Dude, this is my favorite one. Let's do combine. I was literally gone for the entire combine promo. I was not home for this. Every single card I'm about to see is a card I've actually literally never seen. I didn't even look it up either.  Evan Engrel gets a combine tight end card very fast. Honestly, this is a glorified wide receiver card. So this combine egg is probably just 97 overall combine players. I don't know if there are 98 overall combine players. I know there's a Chris Johnson, but was he eliminated? Hey, maybe I'll just pull him to find out. Leon, whoa, you can pull Leon's sandcastle in this? Mutt 23 NFL combine champion, stated that he can play DB, RB, QB, tight end, and even a little bit of RMB. Yeah, this card is actually hilariously good. 99 zone coverage, 98 speed, six foot. This is a very, very good card. The only problem is he's a free safety who can't really tackle. 84 hip power, 80 tackle on your free safety. Yeah, this moves me out a little bit. But it is so fire to pull Leon's sandcastle, man.  Are they not allowed to have the tattoo on the card? Have you guys ever noticed this? Look at this Christian Watson.  I keep forgetting how tall Christian Watson is, man. That boy is tall. I'm thinking this is Super Bowl promo, like the Super Bowl legends, and these are some of my favorite cards. I love these cards. If I can get one, Ray Lewis, that's all I want. Ooh, wait a minute. Ooh, it might not be the legends. Maybe it's, it could be both. So we start out with 97 Jalen Watson. Ooh, I'm really hoping this isn't just like Chiefs and Eagles players. I really hope I can potentially pull Ray Lewis in this, bro. Ray Lewis is one of my favorite cards this year. Oh, come on, baby. And there's that Darnell docket wheel about legend. Come on, baby. Come on, baby. Hold it. Let's go. I spoke that into existence.  I manifested it. Ray Lewis, Super Bowl legend. I do believe that discounted abilities should exist for rare scenarios and for only one or two abilities, like not a lot. So for example, this Ray Lewis has three discounted abilities here and then two more right here.    How this Ray Lewis card should look is you should have these three ability buckets that everybody else gets no discounts and then one slot right here and all he gets, all Ray Lewis gets discounted is crusher. So you get a slight edge for using Ray Lewis, but it doesn't ruin other cards. I don't know. Hey, I got my Ray Lewis, baby. All right, 97 Ray Lewis, not whatever we get, whatever we get, baby. I'll take whatever. A Jalen Watson again. This is Adelman right here. It is. I guess I'm just pulling dupes to that. You got to give me somebody else. You know you have to. 97 Jason Kelsey. All right, three extravagant eggs remain. I've got six. I'm going to go this one. I strongly believe this is Great Iron Guardians volume two. It is. And I think these are 97s. Start out with Delaney Walker.  And at the end of it, at the end of talking to him, I shake his hand. I'm so sorry I never got your name. And he goes, it's Delaney. And I was like, I said, are you Delaney Walker? He's like, yeah, bro, I'm Delaney Walker.  He was very excited about that. Great guy. That's all I wanted to say. Isaiah Simmons is so nasty. Why does Isaiah Simmons have a corner? Did Isaiah Simmons ever play corner?  Pursuit is horrible. His strength is really low. It's just an interesting card. All right, so we'll stay on this one, see who we can get. We get two. Delaney Walker, it's, he heard me telling the story. I wish you could get the limiteds. I know they're limiteds for a reason. We get Cooper Cup here, but damn, remember that Marcus Williams? We had him in Wheel-A-Mot. Al Woods, 97, we'll take that, baby. What else we got? A little extravagant egg. Here, Roddy White. Hey, that Roddy White's a savage. I used him on a team build. He's fire. Okay, so we got our grid on Guardians of Vol. 2. Not a lot of dupes, so that's fire. Just Delaney Walker. Four of these, I think these are free agents, which means they're guaranteed to be 98s if they are. Oh, let's go, baby. 98 Tony Pollard.  He's so good. 98 break tackle, 97 change direction, 97 speed, 99 exhaust, that nasty card. Well, baby, these are all 98s. You know what I really want? I want the ODEL. I want that 98 ODEL.   Who did I stroke off at EA? I'm getting every card that I'm asking for. 98 ODEL Beckham Jr. Well, it's funny. I never realized ODEL was only 5'11". He's a midget like me. 98 speed, 99 jump.  I actually will. I'm gonna throw in the whole lineup. I'll see what kind of lineup this made. Pollard again, so we double up on Pollard. And I think I have one more of those before the potential ring of honor egg. I'm hoping it's a ring of honor egg, man. I wanna see that ring of honor innovation so bad. We get another Pollard. Damn. And the moment you both are waiting for! The purple, gold 99, quick sells for 350k extra. All I need to see is that ring of honor animation. Come on, baby. Come on, baby. You got it. You know you got it. What? What? What? My shit! Where's my dick? Where's my balls?  Where's my dick?  I swear to God, if that was ring of honor and it was Barry Sanders.  I'll take it back, EA. The problem with Madden is not discounted abilities.    That's your life. Fuck. I swear, I'm going item manager. It's just gonna be at the top.    Oh my God. Are you shitting me? Of course.  Oh my God. I'm gonna get Tony G now. I guess this is Tony G. Yeah, no, I get to watch this. It's Barry. Show me the sauce. Show me the sauce. Do I triple up on the boy? Don't tell me I just did. Wait, I did get Tony G. Oh, no. Lawrence Taylor. Hey, I'll say Lawrence Taylor. Fire, Lawrence Taylor. The top and off man, ring of honor. So it was gold 99 ring of honor players which is so nasty. I'm gonna generate the best lineup. Let's see how good my team is from the eggs. 96 overall. And there's honestly a lot of positions we didn't even fill. Like we didn't get a right tackle. We're still in 96.  I hope you guys loved it. One of my favorite videos of the year, every year. Hey, well I hope you guys had an amazing Easter.
