    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!

    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!!!

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    If any hate comes towards you for this video, they simply don’t understand what you are going through. I went through something similar when I decided to quit my teaching position. I decided I needed to take a step back and focus on my own mental health. I am happier than I have ever been and have never regretted my decision. I know that if I ever wanted to go back to teaching, I can when the time is right for me and my family.
    My guess for the big surprise is that you are moving and possibly you are going to change your channel to Zac and Clancy. I know Zac takes your camera every so often, but I’m thinking maybe he will have more of a consistent role?

      @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 UA-cam and Google Ads are paying her. Or that we don't notice that she bought herself giant plastic titties with her UA-cam 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 UA-camr 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.

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!

    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 UA-cam 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!

    I’m glad that it was your decision and not something thrusted on you. I was let go of my last job (actual stupid reasons) and now I am working in my local high school as a substitute teacher and I can say this has been the best job I’ve had. Change is good!

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! ❤️

    Night sweats is common in women who have breast implants too. It is the toxins. :( Some of it might have been anxiety, but sometimes the body has these symptoms including anxiety to show you something is wrong in your body. I am glad you figured out some things, but seriously get some blood work and check for toxins from the implants. There was a talk show host Jenny something that was so sick from her implants. Night sweats was one of the first symptoms.

    The news industry is so hard. We're understaffed, overworked, and under paid. I'm in a top 25 market and I thought it would be way different, but no. The industry sucks and we're all expected to just take it, because that's the norm, even though it causes so many health issues. Everyone is dropping like flies because it sucks so much. Tired of scraping by and hating life. Anyway, congrats on getting out!! I think you could jump into PR and live a much better, less anxious life.
