A Villain Era is weird. Enter your Final Girl Era instead

You're not in your villain era, and thank god for that. The Final Girl in slasher and horror movies is an even better trope to inspire your next era. Enter your final girl era, live authentically, unapologetically, but still compassionately and with your values. This video breaks down some reasons why we might be drawn to the idea of entering our villain era, what purpose it serves for us mentally, and how a final girl era can deliver all that and then some.

Final girls in this video:
Grace LeDomas from Ready or Not
Maxine Minx from X and Maxxxine
Laurie Strode from the Halloween franchise
Tess from Barbarian
Ellen Ripley from Alien
Tree from Happy Death Day
Sally Hardesty from Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Sidney Prescott from the Scream franchise
Maeve from Westworld
Margot from The Menu
Casey Cooke from Split
Nancy Thompson from A Nightmare On Elm Street
Jess from Black Christmas

I'm a psychologist, and, my God, this video was PERFECTION to think about a healthy way of dealing with trauma.

[Trilink-a]

The notification cleared my skin and mended my relationship with my father.

Mykie is to spooky season like Mariah Carry has to Christmas. The one is not the same without the

[alainapecor]

I desperately need a "what doesn't kill you makes you a final girl" T-shirt

[glitch_vixen_]

Honestly the “finale girl era” is so much better than “the villain era”👏🏻👏🏻

"Alexa, play Careless Whisper"

Am I the only one disappointed that Mykie didn’t start the video with “hyello zombaes” ?? 😅 ah well, still super excited the spoopy queen is back 🥳 welcome back!

[kyhoshiwarrior]

And when the world needed her most, Mykie returned 🙏❤

[phoenixevanidus]

What hasn't killed me has really just made me super tired. I'm a tired girl.

[suan]

Our queen is coming back for Halloween!!!

[laynesmith]

Thank you for this. So many “era” trends concerning female empowerment are just about being selfish and unwilling to change, and I feel this is one of the healthier ways to feel empowered. Let’s make “final girl era” a thing!! Also welcome back Mykie we’ve missed you :)

[hannahalexandra]

Mental health and horror analogies is something I didn’t even know I needed. Excellently spoken and very relatable and encouraging. Thank you Mykie 🖤❤️🤍

you just summed up years worth of therapy in 12.5 mins

words.

[Noctsurreality]

Welcome back. Your words have left me with a feeling of self acceptance that i haven't had in a long time. Turns out I've been a Final Girl for much of my life but didn't have the words. Thank you

[Lizaaaaaa]

The way I gasped when I got the notification

[spungfoo]

Reject the villian arc, embrace Goblin Mode

[makaylarobertson]

Immediately clicked the notification 😂

[bluesetise]

I love this type of video, a conversation, intelligent but transparent and honest language, it feels human and relatable. This is the aspect of commentary yt I love, and it's so nice to see it from someone like mykie who is already so respected and I've loved her personality she portrays in her old(and this) video/s

[carolinerose]

The timing of your comeback with this specific message is immaculate. I’ve not been wanting to enter a villain era at all, but I have had life kick me in the ass lately and have needed to get out of the people pleasing mentality in a way that is not becoming hateful, and this take and point of view is perfect. Thank you!
