After sharing the negatives of 2024, Paul decided to reflect on some “highlights.”

“I’ve done all the negatives, so we’ll move on to the positives,” she said in it TikTok video. “First and foremost is my beautiful baby boy being born. I know a lot of people, well, you’ve had a baby, it was supposed to be the best year ever. For many moms, the postpartum period is usually the worst. years, and it’s just a different experience for everyone, how a mom just goes through a lot of hormonal changes, depression, and it’s more about mental health.”

She went on to talk about her son, saying he was “such a blessing” in her life, before moving on to another “huge achievement” from 2024.

“Another big accomplishment was our show on Hulu,” she continued. “Be part of one of the highest rated shows of the year. Like, it’s going to be decent, but the fact that it was number one on Hulu on day one, what in the world is that? It was overwhelming.”

Due to the show’s popularity, many people have reached out to Paula to thank her for sharing her story and “helping” them in various ways.

“And being able to help them in a way and being open to sharing your story, that was the coolest thing for me,” she said. “And I feel like what’s so cool is the people you look up to as a fan who loved you and said they loved your show, so that was really cool, too.”

Shortly after the reality show was released on Hulu, it was picked up for a second season, “for about 20 episodes.”

“So when I say our lives pretty much changed overnight, for travel purposes, they were like, your car will be there at that time, you’ll be picked up, your hotel is booked, your driver will be there.” she continued. . “The other way of life I’ve been living, what is it?”

She also talked about presenting at the CMA’s, which she called a “dream come true.” Another highlight for Paul was meeting her therapist, who she says will be the one to “save” her.

A few days before her video highlighting some of the positives of the past year, Paul shared a video talking about the “worst” moments of her year.

“I mean, it was even worse than my 2022, which is saying a lot,” she said. “That being said, I’m having trouble deciphering which one it was. And I’m only saying that because along with it, I’ve had some amazing opportunities.”

She said she wasn’t going to “go into the details of why it was one of the worst years” because viewers will see “everything unravel here next year.”

“It was a year of a lot of unpacking of all these things that needed to happen for real change to happen,” she continued. “And I’m not really one to blame people for my life. I myself know what I was involved in and what I could have done differently. What lesson can I learn from this experience?”

Paul went on to share in her video that there were both “good things” and “really hard things” throughout her 2024.

“For example, earlier this year I was so detached. We see it in the show, I’m not there. I can’t even watch the show because it’s so hard to watch,” she shared. “And then I finally wanted to start feeling again, so with that you have to start feeling a lot of pain and let things go.”

She said 2022 “was lived,” 2023 “was lost,” and she “missed the pain” in 2024. She said she felt the pain immediately, which left her “lying on the bathroom floor, screaming, crying on phone calls, intensive care.”

“I prayed to God, saying that you should help me. And please remember that this is not me complaining about life’s problems. It’s all about mental health,” she continued. “And it doesn’t matter what external things you have in life because it will never make you happy if you are not happy inside.”

Paul’s video talking about the bad moments of 2024 has gone viral and has more than 2.3 million views. Her recent video talking about the positives of the year is quickly going viral.
