- Yes, it's true. I quit my job as a TV news reporter. There's A LOT that I haven't told you on RUclips, but finally I'm sitting down and sharing all of it. I hope you guys understand that this decision is what's best for me right now. Love you!

Quitting is not giving up when you're quitting because another path is better for you. I started watching your channel because of your job, but I stayed because of your personality and who you are. I will be a viewer for as long as you keep making content. I'm proud of you for prioritizing yourself, Clancy!
Aww!!! Thank you so much. Your support means the world. 🥺💞
AMEN
Well said 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😄😄😄😄
I 100% agree with this! It was cool but than I’m like wow she is such a genuine person! Good luck to you girly!
Very well said!!
I once heard a quote "I hope you learn the difference between quitting and changing direction." So happy for you, Clancy! ❤️
I love this!! I've never thought of it that way.
This reminds me of a song by Agust D, 'Burn it': "I hope you don’t forget that giving up decisively also counts as courage"
@@livingg2331 Love this too!
@@KristinaKk_xx120 I know! I feel like there's so much truth in these kind of qoutes. Agust D is the alter ego of SUGA of BTS by the way, in case you didn't know 😉
Clancy, it's medically proven that lack of sleep and those who don't get enough sleep are more likely to have heart attacks and have significant health issues. You did the right thing!!! Best of luck in all of your future endeavors❤❤
Well, I guess that's my sign to go to bed
Diabetes n cancer also
As an RN, I felt this video in my soul!!! The anxiety and lack of sleep is real! You’re not a quitter, you’re an inspiration
I'm also an RN and am debating quitting nursing for similar reasons! Ugh
This is what I came to say
I always see nurses so overworked! It’s easier in the early stages of career, but I keep telling my nursing friends they should look into cosmetics or try and get a position at a 9-5 GP office, you can see it on their faces and in the energy they have to live any normal life.
Obviously someone has to do the job, but it’s just so hard to watch.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16
“and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.”
Mark 1:15
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”
John 10:10
Jesus loves you
Feeling like I’m one of the few RN’s who still enjoy nursing..and I work in one of the worst hospitals per the media 🤣🥴 but yes, we are insanely overworked.
Clancy you have to realize that those people who complained to your boss about your you tube channel saw your talent and it scared them. They were jealous at how good you were and how much the public likes you. Hope you find something that makes you happy and you can use your talents better. Anxiety is horrible. I have battled it for the last few years for the first time in my 71 years. Can hardly wait to see your future. YOU GO GIRL!!!
Exactly! Having this channel makes her that much more relatable. Rightfully so, they recognized the threat that she is. It's a competitive industry.
If disclosing behind the scenes footage was not prohibited in your contract, who cares? They are jealous.
yes jealousy!!
I don’t watch you every week because you’re a news reporter, I watch you because of YOU and I’m so excited to see what life has in store for you 😁 congrats!!
Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Didn’t see this coming!!! We have your back no matter what’s your decision is
Don’t make me cry!!! THANK YOU!
@@ClancyBurkeX I’ll cry for you 🥲🥲
@@ClancyBurkeX You nearly made me cry. That's payback lol(jk I'm sorry, I don't mean it in a mean way! I'm just joking!!)
Girl, stop saying you're quitting! You're moving on! There's nothing wrong with that! I'm so sad that people were able to make you feel weird or insecure. You are one of the sweetest people on RUclips and I know you are going to find much bigger and better things! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
cant wait to see like an 8am morning routine or some normal morning time!! congrats on this big change! excited to see you find balance and well-being in this
yes SAME!! i’ve never seen Clancy sleep normally. i’m so excited for her to be able to finally sleep!!
Ive gotta say, seeing you- a type A, seemingly rigid person- do this, is so exciting!! And inspiring!! Wishing you the best on your next endeavor! Live your life!!!
Hahaha thank you!!
@@ClancyBurkeX us Type-A can try new things 😂 we love change 😂😂😂😭 lollllk
Rigid? Wdym rigid
No girl! We don't just know you as a "TV news reporter" we know you as Clancy! And we also know nobody knows whats best for YOU and YOUR life more than you do. As long as your happy that is all that matters... and you look pretty happy to me, so were happy for you!! 💞
👏👏
Aww!! Thank you so much, Brooke!! 💞
Why did this make me get tears in my eyes?! 🥹❤️
I’m starting to believe that most people go to college to pursue their dream job.. but then realize it’s not for them. That’s why I can’t settle on a career. Anyways! thanks for being transparent with us Clancy ❤️
True! But then you never know what you like until you try something
Yes! We can have multiple careers in our lives, it’s normal. 🫶🏼
“You is kind, you is smart, you is important!” Forget the haters. I am excited to be along on this new chapter with you!
That's from the help? 💕
I always thought it was crazy we’re expected at 18 to go off to college and decide what to do with the rest of our lives?! Change is natural! It’s called growth, and our careers should evolve with us as humans. Excited to hear about your next chapter!
Aww Clancy I don’t think anyone saw this coming! Good for you taking care of your health! So proud of you! So happy you found some answers to everything that’s been going on!
Thank you!!!
I actually did see it coming. I didn’t think it’d happen so soon but I could tell she was burned out for a while. Still watching…
I don't see a"girl" ,I see a woman living her life, and I am here for it. I feel proud of you and excited to see what is next.
I saw on Zac's Instagram yesterday then stalked all the local 12 reporters fb pages and saw them all saying goodbye to you. I am surprised but happy you're doing what's good for you.
Zac let the cat out of the bag a day early 😂😂
@@ClancyBurkeX I totally thanked him for it via DM!!!!!!!!!
This is a very healthy decision you've made. I was stuck in a job that I didn't like, and it was making me angry and bitter. Quitting that job just changed my life and my mental health. I totally understand you and support you in this decision, and wish you luck and success along the new path you're about to walk!! Much love! ❤️
That feeling you had leaving your managers office after people were talking negatively about you behind your back happened to be a couple times while working in corporate finance and it really rocked me too. The anxiety I felt was so overwhelming and I feel like once people see they can shake you and get away with it they sometimes don’t stop. It’s one of the reasons I left corporate finance, opened my own firm, and now I make videos on my channel trying to make finance more approachable and simple.
Stupid workplace competition, toxicity especially between females.People are really evil.
Girl I was wondering what took you so long to do this!! I am so happy for you!! You’re health should not be compromised from a job
Thank you so much!!! Your support means the world 🥺
Yes, I agree! I worked with a particular group of people/clients that made me realize that I can't help them if I was having issues myself. Now I am a stay-at-home mom at 29 after working since I was 15. No more attacks, no more feeling like I had to take medicine just to go to work. Just feeling like me again. It's wonderful. (Also shout-out to the Hubs for letting me. 😂) Good luck Clancy. Always love watching your videos! ❤️
Second this !!!!
It takes a brave person to leave a “good job” when they are not happy. It’s so easy to complain but stay in that position, you are taking a huge leap and it’s inspiring! Can’t wait to see where your adventure leads you and wishing you so much luck and happiness!
So true. I worked in the corporate world and left it for non profit. Even took a 2 dollar an hour pay cut. I was sad but then the money I saved on gas and the new company’s affordable health insurance it literally evened out.
Giving up would have been sticking with a career you weren’t happy or fulfilled by just because it’s easier. You’re doing a really brave thing and as always, remaining transparent with your audience here on RUclips which is so important! So excited to see what’s next for you and Zac!!
This is so true!
I wish I could upvote this a million times! ❤️
Yes....exactly 💯💟
I nervously interviewed you for a college course in 2020. You have been an inspiration for me for years and this truly inspires me because taking care of your mental and physical health is number one! I understand what you are going through because I’m going through it now. Good luck on your life journey!!
Oh my goodness! When you said life isn't linear, I teared up. Everyone I know, myself included, has been going through these same emotions and making these big changes for themselves. You are not alone in this. I am very excited to see what you have planned!
I don't think you're "quitting" or "giving up", I see it as letting go and moving forward. :) best of luck and excited to see what you all have in store!
I legit almost got an endoscopy because I thought something was wrong with me. Turns out it was anxiety! It’s so wild, people don’t realize how intensely it can affect you! Proud of you for making this decision for yourself! ❤️❤️
Wow, I’m glad I’m not the only one!!! Anxiety is so powerful. I hope you found ways to ease it!!
I did get an endoscopy a couple years back and guess what… it was anxiety! It’s so insane what it can do to your body and mind
@@ClancyBurkeX I had so many health problems when I was in a job I hated. I quit and suddenly everything resolved itself. it was weird! I hope that happens for you.
I just want to acknowledge how much courage it takes to make this decision, rooting for you Clancy! I’m excited to see what you do next :)
Good for you!!! Mental health is so important!! 🫶🏻
There’s nothing more admirable or courageous than stepping away from something that no longer serves you in the way you need it to.
Amen.
Former tv reporter from Australia here and this video resonated with me so much! I quit my job in April after struggling with anxiety - panic attacks, night sweats, thinking of ways I could hurt myself or make myself sick so I didn’t have to go into work. What’s strange is I was amazing at my job and was told I was one of the best in the company but ultimately my mental health plummeted and it was so isolating. The universe was looking out for me though and now I’ve accepted a new role with less responsibilities (yay) closer to family. Proud of you for taking a step back and spreading awareness, especially in an industry that can be so consumed with pride and egos.
I have never respected someone MORE then I do right now!!! The courage it takes to walk away from anything you’ve invested so much time into, is so vast. Feels like you have broken from the corporate chains and are spreading your wings 🥺 I always saw you as so much more then the new tv news reporter. Can’t wait to see more of your creative side 👏🏼🤍 cheers to the next chapters
I love your channel for who you are not what you do for a living. Excited for this new chapter. 🙂
I didn't see it coming... but I definitely understand. Even more after your explanation.. health above all! And you DO have us 😉
Wishing you all the best ❤❤❤
Thank you!!💞
Yes! Your health is more important! I’m looking forward to Clancy’s next adventure!
I remember when you graduated college and trying to "figure it out", and you began your journey as a reporter. This step is just another journey in your life. Leaving does not mean you do not love it or have no direction. I wish you the best of luck and I can't wait to find out what's next.
@Say Hi Tina I remember when she was flat chested before her makeup tutorial blew up. She thinks we don't see her view numbers and subscriber count and we don't already know how much money RUclips and Google Ads are paying her. Or that we don't notice that she bought herself giant plastic titties with her RUclips money and keeps shoving them in every shot LOL LOL LOL LOL Nobody is questioning why she got to do whatever she wanted at her job. It's very obvious. Bubbly blonde airhead RUclipsr buys herself giant fake titties with her YouYube money. Deludes herself into believing that's actual "journalism" and her colleagues are just "haters" because they have professional standards of conduct and "they just don't understand media." I can only imagine the party all those actual reporters threw when they heard she was quitting. LOL The total lack of self-awareness is strong with this bimbo.
When I found your channel, the first thing I thought was “wow. My local news women would never share this much of their personal lives,” and thought it was great. My favorite videos involved your neighbor complaining about you ... “she must be a model”. So snarky and so real!
I wouldn't necessary say you are "quitting" as much as moving on, many people get burnt out and switch positions to a different job or do something else. You made the right choice!!
Zaçhary !!!!!!!!!
as an absolute stranger, I wanted this for you ever since that week you took off and reported (no pun intended) to us how normal you felt, how you could even see a difference reflected in how you feel. I'm screeching internally for you Clancy ❤
Omg same!!
Same!!
Yesssss the tea was SPILLED! There's always going to be people in a workplace that won't like something you do. I was surprised you had never mentioned an employee or co-worker complaining about you doing RUclips but now we know it actually did occur.
I'm going to guess Real Estate. Zac works as a recruiter so he has those skills and you have an engaging personality from TV reporting; I think that'd be the perfect combo for real estate.
I’ve really learned this year how INTENSELY anxiety can affect our health/bodies. This clarifies it even further, and helps me realize I’m not the only way that deals with my body physically showing me other symptoms of stress and anxiety. Been watching you since you made that hair tutorial of braids for “overnight curls” ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing your perspective ❤️ my husband quit last week and I support him 100% to protect his mental health but helps to understand from the other side.
I just wanted to say that I’m glad you didn’t quit RUclips, the 2am morning routine video is how I found your channel and you have been one of my favorite RUclipsrs since, and you will continue to be my favorite as you start your new journey❤️
So very proud of you, Clancy 💜 you’re right, this was NOT an easy decision but for now, it’s the RIGHT decision for you. We will all still support you no matter what you do! I’m excited to learn of your new plans! You are more than your job 💜 Sending you love, sweet girl.
I am so so so happy for you! I’m 55 and I regret not quitting the 9-5 and going to work ski slopes in CO for just one year. You are in the stage of life where you figure things out and experience things. Yay you!!!
Life is really like a good book; twists and turns, with chapters starting and ending. Blessings to you Clancy, on your new chapter. Also, blessings to Zac, for being so supportive; he's definitely a keeper, sis! I really hope you and Zac get a dog.
As soon as I saw this title I clicked on it and said “I have to make sure she’s okay.” Not because you couldn’t be okay quitting your job but because I had noticed your videos being different even just the titles. I love your videos, personality, and look on life Clancy! I don’t watch because you are a tv news reporter I watch because you are funny, caring, and genuine. I can’t wait to see what this next chapter brings you!
I was so shocked by this news that I told my mom (who doesn’t even watch you). After watching this video, I completely 1000% understand your decision. I’m happy that you’re making YOU happy :)
Same. I told my little sister all shocked and she was like "umm okayy"😂
Me too I texted my husband lmao. He said Oo wow!
Clancy, we are fully behind you and support your new journey!!!!
As I get older, I realize just how interconnected every single decision or thing that happens to me actually is, and your story is the same. Congrats - you're definitely correct on sleep. Fix that first, everything else is easier. Best wishes for the future!
I can still remember watching that sweet girl unbox an iPod Touch, and I’m SO PROUD to call myself a longtime fan. Watching you grow into the talented and inspirational woman you are today has meant so much, and I wish you all the happiness as you continue your journey!
Clancy I'm so happy for you! I literally just went through something like this and I just truly cannot believe how happy I am! I went from being an underpaid, Construction Project Manager (Civil Engineer by education), working long long hours, missing holidays and gatherings with friends like you, to taking a tangent Project Manager job at a different company (still in construction) with a 40% raise, flexible work, and 3 times as much vacation! If something doesn't feel right, take the leap!! I am soooooo happy I did! Congratulations and so happy to watch you on this new journey!
I literally think of you Clancy as a friend. We’ve seen your family, your friends, you and Zac and all your life adventures and struggles. I look forward to all your content and so many exciting things to come ❤️
So glad you’re putting yourself and your health first!!! ✨❤️ “There is a difference between quitting and knowing when you’ve had enough” we support you!
Aww! Thank you!!❤️❤️
I am shook! 😲 It all makes sense now. The sweating, the anxiety, the sleep walking. It makes sense. I didn’t see this coming so soon, but you have to do what’s best for you. I hope the change diminishes your anxiety. This new journey should be interesting 🤗
Although we’re in totally different careers, I’ve been in your shoes girl! Two years ago I quit an amazing job with no back-up plan because I was truly burned out and depressed! It was so scary at the time and like you, I was sweating every night along with waking up shaking! Listening to you share how you felt and how supportive Zack was/is, reminded me of myself and my hubby. I’m a firm believer that everything happens for a reason and learning to separate our identities from work is a huge milestone in life! We’re socialized from a young age to put our worth in our work, but the truth is we’re so much more than than our jobs! We are valuable regardless if we’re employed or not! Plus, over time we evolve/grow (like we’re supposed to!) and a job may not suit us anymore and that’s okay! I had to work with a coach to be able to recognize that! A quote that got me through that tough time that I’d love to share with you is, “Not all storms come to disrupt your life, some come to clear your path” -Paulo Coelho.
Have faith in the universe ❤️ it has your back!
im a small youtuber and i totally understand people "not getting it". so happy you kept going!
Clancy, though we've never met, you have had such a major impact on my life and as a fellow TV reporter in Ohio, I'm seriously inspired and encouraged by all that you've done. Growing up in Ohio but having worked in the entertainment industry in LA for 10+ years, I really didn't think I was truly cut out for news. That was until one day I stumbled upon your channel and thought - wow, there are so many styles of news and this reporter uses her PERSONALITY. I got a job as a morning reporter back in Toledo where I loved it but was also struggling with my health. I reached out to you and I remember you saying - health above all!! along with some helpful tips. I ended up landing a dayside reporter job in Columbus and it really has felt like such a great next step. Fascinating where life brings us and stoked to see where ya'll land next. Thank you for putting yourself out there even on the hard days, I can't imagine continuing RUclips after getting so many comments from work, talk about bravery! (still trying to balance and figure out my voice on here among the multiple personas it feels like we have in news!) If ya'll are ever in Cbus, I'll take ya out for a drink! Congrats on the journey ahead!
You said it yourself. "Mental health comes before everything else."
Thats it, girl. That's allllllll that matters. Much love and best wishes!!!
!!!! Oh! And my guess is a travel vlog. He works remotely, and now you could travel without the crazy hours of morning reporting.
That or you're buying a house and vlogging that process as you remodel. Both on opposite ends of the continuum but, lol, those are my guesses.
This spoke to my SOUL. I felt this exact same way when I was a teacher. I signed a 2 yr contract and felt stuck. I ended up finishing the 2 yrs and then leaving bc I was so stressed out and anxious all the time. You are making the best decision in the world prioritizing your health and sanity 🥰
Oof - I feel this in my core. I've worked in radio for 8 years now and I'm on my way out unfortunately. Thank you for making this video. Love what you said that news will always be there.
I will never understand one adult wanting to undercut someone else’s success to the point that they revert to acting like a child. This channel did nothing but give insight into the other side of working for a news network, it was in absolutely no way a threat to anything so it pains me that anyone would try to frame it in a negative light to upper management. What happened to people rooting on other people? What happened to being happy for another person? It makes no sense to me and I’m not here for that gross behavior
A lot of people are miserable and want others to be miserable also.
@@TheQueenIsWithin 💯
Excited to see what's to come for you, Clancy!
Thank you for sharing. Your health and happiness is always first priority. The work life balance, missed events, holidays, and stress start to add up. You just realize its not worth it anymore. We will be here to support you with whatever you do next! We are here for you, not just your tv news stuff
Guesses :
1. Buying a house
2. Moving cities
3. Having a baby
We need to contact the song guy to get a new outro...is that what it's called?
Hey Clancy! I just wanna say, from one ex-TV news reporter to another, your RUclips channel has inspired many young journalists. Not a lot of people in the industry show what their life is actually like and I really, personally, appreciate you keeping it real and showing those outside the industry that it isn’t always glamorous. It’s a lot of sacrifice on our mental health and our personal lives. The fact that you are choosing YOU and what is best for your life is genuinely so inspiring! I hope this reminds all the future and current TV newsies that it’s okay to put yourself first over any job!
I may be late here but I’m so proud of you ! Im starting to learn to put myself first too and it’s the most liberating feeling
I’m so proud of you Clancy! Thank you for speaking out and sharing your story of a nontraditional path. I too had to make a difficult choice for myself to not pursue medicine like my older brother. People call me selfish for not choosing to become a provider to help people. We all need to choose ourselves and help ourselves first. I know you don’t know me, but I love you and fully support you. I am so excited for you guys’ future! I can’t wait for the next video!
First of all, thank you so much. Second of all, you are absolutely not selfish for not pursuing medicine!!! That is such a specific career path that just truly isn’t right for everyone. Good for you for following your heart!! ❤️
My parents wanted me to be a teacher, but I knew in my heart I wouldn't be good at it, so I refused. You probably realized the same with medicine. It's much better to follow your heart than go into a career you're not good at, simply so others won't think you're selfish.
you did NOT give up something, you CHOOSED something different. I absolutely support you!
Clancy, you are the last person I would ever call a quitter!! I respect you so much more for making such a difficult decision. I wish you and Zac only the best and can’t wait to see your journey continue. 💛
I remember you telling us how you would have to eat and just go straight to sleep and it was causing bloating. I asked myself, is this job really worth it for you. 😭 Definitely did not expect you to quit already but I am so happy for you, this is definitely the best decision, love you alwayss ❤️
Clancy, I have never gotten the impression that you were stuck up in any way. You come across as so down to earth and fun and I am so happy that you are prioritizing your mental health!
Also my guess is that you're moving/buying a house together?
honestly i had wondered why you didn’t do this sooner, not that being a tv news reporter is bad, you clearly loved it! but, it’s a lot on your plate and you have essentially 2 full time jobs. that’s so much. i haven’t watched much of your video, im only 2 min in so idk your reasonings but im glad you did 😌
Thank you!❤️❤️❤️
As someone who was in the news biz for 22 years (radio & TV + on & off camera).. life after TV news is glorious! I worked the overnight shift for years and ended up with health issues years later in 2007. (NHL and thankfully survived) You’ll be fine 😊
You have mentioned on your channel that this isn’t something you would be doing forever with the sleep and schedule so it’s not that shocking! Proud of you for making the jump & excited for your new journey, and how great is it that you got to share your journey with us throughout it 🥲 you are seriously my favorite RUclipsr I can’t wait to see what’s in store for you and Zach 💗
I was here for the move and honestly I felt like I noticed a shift in the dynamic. You used to film with your colleagues in Dayton but here everything seemed off. Glad you've taken the right decision for you!
I grew up in Dayton, watching Fox 45 and Local 12 out of Cincy. I live in NE TN now, but watching your vlogs helped me to still feel connected to my hometown. Thank you! I wish you all the best!
I have so much respect for you and your decision. Definitely wasn't expecting this but BEYOND proud you are prioritizing yourself before your work. So excited to continue to see you grow and can't wait to see what the future holds for you!!!
This video was so cathartic. I thought my entire life I wanted to be a teacher and only made it 3 years teaching. I thought I was a failure and my entire education was a joke. But you are right life is messy and now is the time to do what you’ve always been dreaming of. Good luck on your future!
Good on you for looking after yourself!! Just follow your gut/intuition and it’ll never lead you astray. I did 1:30am wake ups for 5.5 years when I worked for an airline (not every day but more often than not) and it’s bloody tough and I emphasise with you. It’s not easy at all and it’s so unbelievably tolling - not only on yourself, mental health, social life but also it’s hard on your family and friends because you’re just so tired, need sleep and often bail on outings. When I swapped to “normal” hours, I was shocked out how much my health improved and I realised how shockingly tired and drained I was.
I’m really looking forward to seeing what’s next for you and I truly believe that whatever path you choose to take you’ll absolutely smash it. All the best Clancy!! P.S. I plan to keep watching whatever you choose to do :)
Clancy I have been with you since the iPod touch video. I have watched you grow up as I have grown up. We are the same age, I started dating my boyfriend a year before you and Zac started dating. I feel like I can relate to you so much. I am SO insanely proud of you. I never finished my bachelor’s degree and always felt like I was five steps behind then my peers. Turns out, I have been working in HR since 2 years after high school. I landed my DREAM job this year after accepting a job last year that I thought I loved. I make more money then my friends who graduated college. I know it is so hard to make this decision when you have the world against you (social media and its comments). But wow - you need to know and REALIZE how inspiring you are. Chase your dreams. Get closer with Zac. You two deserve this. 💛 I think you and Zac may travel the world/country by “Van Life” or something like that?
I always enjoyed your "behind the scenes" videos...it was kinda like a "day in the life of" and was interesting to see how much goes on off camera. Miss seeing you on Chn 7.
Good luck in your future endeavors, Clancy.
This means SO MUCH for me to hear. I currently have someone at work trying to tear me down and hearing that it happened to you too makes me blame myself less, because if someone can come after you it can happen to anyone.
I’m also 26 and considering a career change and you give me hope! I’m so happy for you!!
I did at 30 going into News and I'm contemplating on changing again. Do what makes you happy.
I’ve been watching you since college. I recently left my job too six months ago for health reasons as well and it was the best decision ever. It felt like a loss and lots of grieving at first, but then i started to create an identity outside of my profession which has been hugely empowering. It’s relatable to hear you speak on this. Here you for, thanks for sharing!! ❤️
Hi Clancy, I recently walked away from my career as a news producer after 7 years. I totally understand and respect your decision! Better things are coming 🙏 wishing you the best in your new chapter.
Clancy, I have watched your channel since you uploaded the ‘What it’s like working at Victoria’s Secret’ video years ago and I’m so glad that the algorithm pushed you into my feed all those years ago. This video couldn’t have come at a better time as I also recently left my ‘dream job’ of five years for similar reasons - thank-you for posting this! I hope everything works out in the long run, and as you said, everything happens for a reason ❤️ congrats on a great career so far!
I had a similar toxic work environment a few years ago, I also considered changing so many things about who I am to appease the people around me. I learned that some of my peers and boss were talking about how I wasn't doing enough, when I was staying behind an extra 3 hours every night to make sure I got everything done. I also get the stuck up/reserved comments. You are so strong and we're all so proud of you!!
I can’t see anything wrong with this channel its not like things where being leaked before the news stories came out. All the best too you in whatever you do next!
I am soooooo proud of you Clancy! Mental health is so important and putting it first especially when it comes to your work/career is so hard! I literally have been going through the same thing for the last 5 or so years and this year I took the big leap and left my "career" in Property Management. I'm so excited to see what you do next. Best of luck! Xo
Clancy, just because you’re quitting, doesn’t mean you fail! You are moving on and that’s okay! I also wanted to say thank you so much for posting this video. I have been dealing with this decision myself for quite some time. I spent 4 years of college obtaining my BA in music and now am a music teacher. It can be very hard and draining sometimes, but I have also wanted to try something different since I have also had bad anxiety recently… so let’s see what happens!!! Thank you for always being so genuine in your videos and inspiring people every day! You truly inspire me and put a smile on my face every time I watch your videos! Continue to follow your heart! ❤️
The people who complained were literally just jealous of your success. Changing your life is the best decision to ever make
Clancy...I'm an aspiring reporter...and I have to tell you the story about others trying to get you fired...I have gone through at every place I've worked at in my journey....It's not until my last expierence that I learned no matter where you go people will do this...I had panic attacks everday and it got do the point where I was calling out constantly to avoid these people...
Your intimidating them by your confidence and ability to outshine...People inevitably will revert to childish behavior when they feel threatened...I'm glad you kept doing this channel and stuck it out...I applaud your perseverance and admire that you have the confidence to walk away for your own betterment....I wish you well in your future endeavors....Please keep.us updated...
Long time watcher, first time commenting - this video was truly inspiring. Hearing someone speak about anxiety the same way I feel it, really helps me realize I'm not crazy, especially coming from someone who seems so confident all the time 🖤 you have to do what's best for you & I'm so excited for the content you'll create on this new path!
I am so happy to hear of this news! I worked graveyard for years as it worked with someone always being home with the children. I relate to everything you have experienced. That shift really caused so many health problems. So many days by the time I got the kids to school and tasks done I was only getting around 4 hours of sleep. I constantly was having to adapt to day time appointments and kids sporting events. I also ended up with fibromyalgia and serious sleep problems which I now realize was anxiety. My marriage suffered and eventually ended in divorce. So with this written I am grateful Zack and you will start your marriage being on the same schedule. I’m also happy you have RUclips revenue and that it is allowing you to pursue a new career. I wish that I would of had other options but at the time I had to work to support the family. Please know that the people that have seen your health problems are all cheering you on! You deserve to learn how to live with more normal work hours!
My favorite quote and life rule: quitting is for winners. But don’t quit because it’s hard, quit because it sucks.
I watched your videos when you did vlogmas, family vacations, and probably sooner. I love tapping in to see how you’re doing. When you said your job becomes your identity, I just imagined your happiness being the independent person that I grew to enjoy watching because your personality resonated with me so much. You resonate such high qualities that it was and is inspiring to be lighthearted, chase after your dreams, enjoy your company, eat good, and be a goofy girl yet solid individual. I know how devastating leaving a job can feel, I have been there. The growth within that comes afterwards though, is unmatched. You only are who you are. I am so glad you did not give up on RUclips. Get your sleep and rejuvenate, the rest will take care of itself. Love your channel always Clancy!
I found you because I enjoy one of your coworkers social media presence on FB. But I stayed because I just like YOU and your perspectives. I don’t live in that news area, I just appreciate people who create interesting content. I’m not going anywhere. I don’t watch local Las Vegas news, but I watch a lot of RUclips! Media and journalism is evolving constantly. You will have a very bright future, I’m certain. I want to see you healthy and happy!
You are such an inspiration! As a 2nd career teacher, I always tell my students that you are allowed to rewrite your story. ❤️ Good luck to you!
Ahhhh I love that!! And I couldn’t agree more!
I legit started watching your channel (and subscribed) after watching your 2am morning routine video. I am so so glad and thankful to you for not stopping your RUclips thing. Your work environment was similar to mine and I took you as my inspiration to keep going at my last job. Thanks for everything Clancy. Love you a lot!
I feel this in my soul. So many of the reporters at my station, including myself, struggle with a lot of this so much.
I cried when you said Zack said don’t worry about the pay out. That kind of love is priceless and something i pray for.
Last year I quit my job as a wedding photographer. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done, and I've been to hell and back several times. Wedding Photography consumes your entire life and becomes your identity. I really grieved it thinking, "If I'm not Dawn Kelly Photography, who am I?" I'm doing other forms of photography, but it's hard to rebuild. But I HAD to because of the stress. I had ulcers, hives, anxiety, insomnia..... I was so sick and I'm already chronically ill. Finally in January of 2021 I had a nervous breakdown. Then it was no longer a choice. I'm so so happy I left. It got so toxic.
