You be workin' = you be tired. Knowing it doesn't always help but you got this. You'll find your way.
Hi Kay, first time commenting here but I've been watching all of your channels for a couple of years now. Just wanted to say, I love your content for who you are -- when I first saw one of your videos, I was intrigued because you're so unique and yet still so relatable. I mean, you're a professional classical singer, a long-time gamer in her 40s (personally I think that's so cool and makes your content more interesting), a professional organizer, a devoted dog mom to the cutest little guy ever, a (currently retired) horseback rider, a Bostonian... I could go on and on. Point is, you've got a fascinating life and perspective and I love getting to tune into all of that! And to top it off, you're always so genuine about how life's going and how you're feeling.
I don't know exactly where I'm going with this. I just want you to know your viewers love all of your content and we're always wishing you the best in life. Any time you need a break, we're here for it. And on the flip side, if you suddenly want to start uploading every single day or something, we're here for that too. Just take your time and do you 💚
I love this channel. It’s like hanging out with a friend. I’m a young 48 years old and appreciate having found someone to watch that’s my age who creates content I enjoy. (I’m not ready quite yet for the “over 50” content.) I love your excitement and energy for life.
We are a biracial family, and I also really appreciate that facet of watching you. Representation matters.
It actually seems like you have a lot on your plate. So, please don’t think you’re a weak or lesser person for feeling tired. Get your rest! ❤
Thank you for your honesty and for even posting this week.
hun, if you need a break, we won't hold that against you. We all love you and want you to feel better.
Regardless of what content you put out, I am a die hard fan. I find your honesty and self reflection helpful in my own life. Thanks for all you do for us.
Oh Kay, I’m sending you the gentlest and warmest of hugs…this sadness is so hard. You have had an incredibly stressful couple of months, the performances alone are enough to have triggered these feelings, and adding all of your other concerns when you are so tired really can magnify all of your emotions to something almost overwhelming. Please do what you would tell us to do, and rest. Also, eat yummy things that make you happy, and do play your simplest, most satisfying games. My 12 year old Cav (Posy) is deaf and has been for years now, and still responds with wags when she sees me talking to her, and she has a grade 3/4 heart murmur and still loves her life (except for have her nails done). Love you so much, you are one of my favorite streamers ever, and that has little to do with your actual content, it’s just you being yourself. Hugs hugs hugs.
Kay, you are allowed to be tired and also feel discouraged sometimes. We all do. Know that you are valued and supported. I’m sorry you are going through some things. Sending prayers and hoping that your sadness subsides soon. ❤
Make the content that you enjoy and we will watch. We love your videos ❤ Hugs to Clover.
Fellow cav mum here. I’m so sorry to hear about Clover’s health and hearing. Summit, our almost 5yo tricolour (Monte is in my profile pic), is hard of hearing recently. It’s emotional, but we go in knowing they can have these issues come up just being cavs, and we just keeping loving them and giving them their best lives. Your content is super enjoyable, keep it up and do what you can when you feel like it. ❤
You have a lot going on in your life, give yourself some grace. Whatever videos you enjoy we will enjoy. You have a wonderful way about you and your attitude is refreshing.
Kay I just love you. I resonated with this video so so so much - you've got this, friend. Big hugs.
I love watching your content! Makes me feel good that there is someone else my age (mid 40’s) that I can follow😊 you are amazing!!! And a beautiful person inside and out!!!
Think there are a lot of mid forties watching. Love it!
I love your videos! You’re one of my favorite RUclipsrs! 😘 Hugs to you, Kay!
I love watching your vlogs- creating content is tough, especially for 3 channels ( i came for the organizing, and stayed for the vlogs and this channel). So much respect for you, and appreciate what you do!❤
But totally understand if you need a break, extended or otherwise. Love to clover boy as well
I subscribe to over 600 accounts (I've been on YT a while, okay? LOL) and you're like one of 15 I ALWAYS watch. Don't get hung up about your age. A lot of younger content creators are annoying. LOL Not because they're "young" in an ageism sense, but in a "you haven't lived long enough to really know about this and this" kind of sense. It's hard to explain. But if you're in your 30s, you don't want to always watch someone fresh out of high school or in their early twenties because you've been there, done that. I also LOVE to see someone who's into the same stuff I am (example, games), that I NEVER plan on "aging out of." It doesn't matter how many times you've traveled around the sun, eclipses will always be exciting!! Same for a human... LOL OK, I'm done. You're great. End of story. :)
Clover is SO cute! Pet health concerns can be very stressful and very expensive. I can sympathize with you. 🐶
I needed this; I needed to hear someone with similar struggles. I also usually don’t struggle with these things either.
Prayers for Clover. Hope you feel better
Kay I have watched you for years and your advice has honestly helped me so much in making changes positive changes in my life. I am so sorry about Clovers health xx sending you a big hug.
How long did it take your husband to get back from Vermont? I live up here in northern New Hampshire where there was totality (and it was awesome). But the ride back to Mass took all night for thousands of people. As far as how you feel, I feel your pain. Life is hard. You only sing and make videos so why are you tired? You're tired because it's a time in your life when it's all catching up to you, not only physically but mentally. Getting more rest may help but not completely. You can't be physically rested until you're mentally rested and only you can figure that out. Your heart knows what you need. Last of all, Clover loves you regardless. Peace.
They were in traffic for literal HOURS. They got back to Boston in the wee hours of the morning. I’m so glad I wasn’t with them lol
9:07 Honestly I don’t think there is a way to “stop” the thoughts. You can only change how you then relate and respond to those thoughts. Try thinking of it as a very grumpy friend in your head. And that friend is probably only grumpy because they really are sad about something (a moment or multiple moments from your past where you felt like you weren’t enough, for example). Speak back to it kindly but it’s not in charge, it doesn’t get to change your behavior or your feelings. Then do what you want and like :) you’re in charge, not the grumpy friend. You got this Kay
Wonderful advise💯
That's a lot going on! For what it's worth, I genuinely enjoy all three of your channels and am always excited when you post a video, and I'm far from the only one!
I only have such a very small channel and I feel like I only 'kinda' know myself even though I am 43.....I know that looking at analytics and other people's channel 'numbers' (tubebuddy) can mess with my head and make me feel like I am just the biggest loser in the world with nothing to offer. BUT!!! i will tell you that I am here for YOU. We probably have like nothing in common except that we are both married, women and speak english haha! It is SO hard to just exhale and believe that you are ok and enough. Have I arrived there yet? No. Will I keep trying to claw my way to 'always being ok with myself because I DO matter'? YES!!!! We are worth it Kay! We both are. I am cheering you on all the way on the other side of the world.
You look so pretty with your hair up and a headband!!!
Why not just make no-edit or low-edit weekly vlogs- add maybe 10 minutes every day or two. No planning needed! I love those kinds of low-key uploads. I’m sorry you aren’t getting as many views as you’d like- I really enjoy your videos and have been watching for years. Love your singing too!
Take care of you.
I like all of your videos, especially on this channel!
I love your videos Kay and completely know the stress you feel when it comes to content creating, youre doing great and i love the videos you put out here and even in your gaming channel and the organized soprano one! hope youll get good news at the vet. All the love to you and Clover!
Just know you are normal. We are all there with ups and downs. I take timeout sometimes. Take care of yourself. We all change through the years. Stay encouraged.
We love you Kay 💜 I totally feel for you, as I am very familiar with that sadness and it’s always a slog to get through. Sending all of my very best vibes to you and Clover!!
I love all your videos!!! Definitely helps me after I've had a long day.
I’m always looking forward to seeing you on RUclips. Be grateful for the subscribers and don’t overthink things because sometimes it’s hard not to fall into over analysis paralysis. Your cute, funny, highly organized, extremely intelligent and in the immortal words of my friend in my head Prince …. “ All those non-singing non-dancing wish I had me some clothes fools who tell me my album suck why should I pay any attention to them?” Peace ☮️ love 💕 and light 🦋and may U live 2 C the 🌅Dawn
Sorry to hear about little Clover. It's rough when our little ones, human or fur, aren't feeling well. He is living his best life though -- no doubt. Baby aside, listen . . . One of the hardest things about dealing with burnout is that it's often in things we enjoy. Somehow we convince ourselves that if we enjoy something we should continue to do it, even when it's running us into the ground. It's alright to let some things go for a while. It doesn't say anything about your love for them or your commitment to them. It says, "I need some time for me." It's okay to set some of the balls to the side for a bit. You can always pick them back up later, IF YOU WANT TO. Don't allow things you enjoy to become the source of stress for you -- kinda not the point. Breathe for a bit and when you're ready, reintergrate the things you really miss. You will get through this season and you will be better for it.
Hi, friend! 😊 I love keeping up with your content. Your vlogs are always the first ones I watch when I see them pop up. I find myself struggling with creation lately as well, but my views are so small I don’t even get all of the insights. Anyhooo…you are amazing! I love everything you put out, and I hope you don’t get discouraged. Your people love you! 🩵✨
I love everyday ordinary things like tending to your plants, decorating, cleaning. Soon it will be time to plant your garden. I want to know how you make the various coffees.
This sparked many thoughts but particularly empathy as you work your way through an abundance of what you love. It seems to have achieved critical mass most recently with a lot on your mind and calendar. I'm often reminded that your body is your instrument and you're performing multiple parts, so I'm sending warm thoughts as you continue to move between and among them. Take care.
Can we please discuss the grey dress you wore to recording? I am loving it.
also very much hear you on the burnout. Probably because of the ADHD I hit it easily, quickly, and often. Finally at a point in my life where I can pace myself a little bit better so it's not as bad. In any case, ear available if you want/need.
Right?! I was so glad she backed away so we could see the whole thing. It is SO cute!!
2 min in...here's the thing. I actually find it refreshing to have a human being be honest with me. And I feel that when someone is open and honest, I'm honored that I'm trusted with the information. ❤
And yeah...you are allowed to be tired and have your emotions ebb and flow!
Content creation is such a hamster wheel! I do a small fraction of the amount you do for my biz, and even that feels like too much a lot of the time. I feel like the hardest parts are the stats like you mentioned in the video and the unrelenting churn, where you're rewarded for never taking a break and punished any time you do. I wish there was a way to hide the stats until/unless you actively want to see them. And I wish the algorithms weren't so dependent on consistency.
I don't have any answers, but I have solidarity!
❤
any labor is still labor. It makes sense that you're tired. I am willing to help in any way I can. I am impressed by your creator award. Poor Clover with his hearing! :( sending you hugs and love!
Kay, you have a LOT going on right now so of course you’re tired! Please take more time to recharge after a big work day/week and then if inspired, do the content that you feel like doing whenever you feel like it. I enjoy all your content and also want the best for you, so please go easy on yourself.🩷
I’m sorry to hear about Clover’s heart and hearing. My Cavaliers had developed mild murmurs as they got older and lived long full lives. We had them see a cardiologist initially, ran tests and set up a plan. My current Cavalier is 13-1/2 & mostly deaf but she still understands hand signals and loves life. She follows me everywhere. She’s my girl! Hugs to you both!🥰
Oh hunny you have SOOO much on your plate right now!!! Every single one of them needs your full attention so that fact that you are still functioning at this level is amazing. That's why you are feeling burnt out Hugs to you for Clover. Can you take a day next week and do nothing? And I mean sit on your porch or watch a movie or play a game for YOU and not to your audience?? Might be something to consider....... Love your channel, it's my go to on a Sunday morning.
I’m sorry to hear about the clover stuff, that’s always tough. But as far as the yt stuff, I agree with what some commenters have said on here. You need to post more often and don’t overthink the quality of the vlog. I mean not every vlog is going to be perfect and polished. Social media now a days is about casual “slice of life” content, plus RUclips will always prioritize a content creator if they upload frequently.
Kay, friend..take a break. Take care of you...Chat soon 😊
I have turned notifications on for your channels since RUclips will recommend trash videos of people that I’m not even subscribed to rather than videos of people that I am subscribed to and would rather watch. Your channels are valuable to us that are subscribed so please give yourself grace and go at your own pace. We’ll still be here. ❤
I have enjoyed your content for a few years now and if it is at all helpful, please know that I love your Organized Soprano channel. You are fun, funny, smart, kind and interesting. If I met you out and about, I would think you a friend. You’re just lovely.
Oh I wonder if the protest is from Kathy griffin coming to town. Love her comedy!
I have been watching for years and love you. Please take the rest you need, sending love to you and clover. I am turning 47 on the 19, and I have found myself being anxious, feeling like things have passed me by and I haven’t achieved what I wanted. I went back to therapy and have started meds bc I realized that mental health is so important. Maybe therapy would help? I hope you know what an amazing person you are
It's not too late as long as you have the drive to push for what you want with diligence and focus. I'm right behind you at 46 and back in school with my 20 year old daughter. I'm LOVING living out something that most would have considered a lost opportunity. If you want it, take steps, even if they're tiny and just keep moving towards your goals and dreams. You can do it!!! Don't give up on you!
Sliding into 1st comment ❤ hey Kay ❤ 🥰
Kay, we love you. Rest & re-group. ❤
Singing is incredibly tiring already as an amateur. Can't imagine how much more as a professional.
You are doing well considering what you have been through the last few years between your father and Clover.
Take care of yourself and the little guy.
My calvie cross has become deaf over the last 2 years and has now also lost hearing of ultrasound dog whistle. For a while, she still heard it allowed me to let her off-lead but it is now over. I realise now that you never teach them enough hand signals.
You are doing well.
My older dog is beginning to have a teeny bit of hearing loss, but reading your comment, I think we will begin teaching him hand signals as he's very smart and it will be a way to be able to communicate with him when it becomes more pronounced. Thank you for sharing and so sorry about your fur baby.
You have been working like a fiend so you ‘deserve’ to feel tired. And deserve a break.
I also wonder if you are feeling pulled between your different careers?
Singing is your first love and content creation is your backup. You love content creation and are very, very good but isn’t your dream. Over the last couple of years your singing career has blossomed and maybe you want to devote yourself to it completely but you also feel committed to your channels. You know we love you and it is fun and rewarding. Especially during the down years. It is also a nice (moderately) stable base for if the music opportunities get sparse again. Subconsciously are you sabotaging some of your online work so you don’t have to feel so conflicted?
I could be (and probably am) way off base, but may be something to think about?
Sending love and support ❤
hi kay! i am so sorry to hear about clover! i also just wanted to say i love your content and it has gotten me through undergrad and is getting me through graduate school!
Have you considered getting an assistant to help you plan?
❤❤❤
Kay patterson, #1 you haven’t posted to organized soprano in a minute. I think you should just focus on that. Stop worrying about the views. You r stretched to thin and this channel is not as big. Love your singing and organizing content girl 😊
Did you watch it without special glasses?
I was able to see it via shadow 🥰
@@kaypattersonvlogs That's good
What kind of mirror is that? I need one of those!!
It’s a simple human sensor mirror! I swear by it! Worth the money!
