    Oh grace 😢 I hated seeing you upset at 35:00 bless you, you can see the burnout and you need to give yourself more credit and you 1000% need to enjoy and be in the moment of the incredible experiences you’re being given without worrying about work. I’m sure you’ll figure it out but I hope you do and soon because you deserve to enjoy a full life that grants you opportunities you’ve worked for without fear/guilt for not being at your screen ❤❤

    I’m very always wondered about founders with successful companies, like do they ever get burnout? Than you for being vulnerable with us, Grace. It’s not stupid to cry, let it out. I also have a business, not on the scale as yours, but the commitment entrepreneurs put, we do miss the simple things of just having a lazy day, spending time with friends, pets, going out for a walk etc.
    I get inspired from women entrepreneurs like yourself. Hope you’ll be able to find more flexibility to relax from time to time - you truly need and deserve it ❤

    Grace, I was holding my breath and didn’t even realise it until 34:04, vicariously feeling your overwhelm…knowing that although you’ve just experienced some professional highs, your day to day responsibilities are still there, all the while you are jet lagged and knackered! Grace you’re incredible you love and are fulfilled with your career, but would you consider a board related role in TALA for example to give you time for Retrogade / podcast etc and LIFE! Anyway I pray everything that was not going to plan falls exactly into place and the peace that surpasses all understanding meets you. Xx

    34:13 Thank you for sharing this-it’s so real, and I know a lot of us can relate. You’ve built something amazing, but please don’t be too hard on yourself. Your health and well-being come first because your business wouldn’t be the same without you. Maybe it’s worth thinking about how to adjust or delegate some responsibilities so you can breathe a little easier. You’re doing incredible work, and you deserve to enjoy it, too! ❤

    This is my sign to go through all your older vlogs!!! I felt so seen when you broke down, I really appreciate you keeping that in the vlog. It can be hard to sit in that feeling of what day is it, and I feel like I'm barely a human being right now but then also having to feel so grateful to be in the position where you are given those opportunities. They can be tough opposing feelings. It comes in phases, and I totally understand the feeling of not being able to see two feet in front of you. Most of the time it's my poor bf who just sits and strokes my hair as I let it out lol so I feel for you not having those comforts of home in that moment, but the way you picked yourself up to continue the day was so beautiful and inspiring. Schedule a day (or half a day) of nothing even if it's weeks in the future ❤

    Grace, have all the meltdowns you want and need. You crying is absolutely NOT stupid. Take it from someone who used to despise crying and would be so hard on myself about it. A lot of work with my therapist has taught me to view crying as my body's way of expressing the overwhelming emotions and stress that I'm continuously trying to process. It's cathartic, it's necessary. Hot Girls Cry! Anywho, I loved this vlog and getting to see this side of your work (typical day or not). Thank you so much for sharing it with us

    Minute 34:00
    I felt this soooo deeply. As a self employed in Marketing I do find myself in beating myself up so many times. Especially when I decide to just rest or have a good time while I know I have a shit load things to do.
    But these resting moments are the moments where I charge my battery - and still, I beat myself up for having these important breaks. So, don’t be hard on yourself dear❤

Like what is your staple, vitamins? keeping a workout routine? taking certain snacks, or try to ensure you eat well to keep energy up? or do you have a certain way of packing? I have just started travelling with work/ staying in London every other week and it is so difficult on my routine and missing home comforts :) ty x

    First of all - love!! I love these vlogs!
    Second, just as a tip for next time - if you feel congested and fly be very careful because you have hurt your ear drum but what can help is if you use nose spray when the approach starts. It can clear your pathways
    (Former flight attendant hacks 😅)
    Additional to the part at 36:08 - I completely understand the feeling!
    The overwhelming feeling of having so much work that you can’t even make headway. It wouldn’t matter how much headway you make a few days ago (or could have) because then you would just have different work waiting. You got this and you’re doing amazing work 😊

    Looooong time subscriber here and let me tell you I was SO EXCITED to watch this. Your vulnerability at the end made me so sad, so sending love and light and reminding you that although you often appear to be superhuman, you are in fact not. Also, it reminded me of something you shared a while ago (which has stuck with me and gets me through moments of overwhelm) take a deep breath and ask yourself the following: “Am I tired? Am I hungry? Am I dehydrated? Where am I in my cycle?” etc. ..Allows me to extend a bit more grace to myself. Anyway, you’re our shero with or without cute menty bs ❤

    I so appreciate your rawness in this. That level of tiredness is awful, especially when you can't see light at the end of the tunnel any time soon. I can see you having a really whip smart EA one day, if you haven't already got one. A good EA can help prevent overload from happening too often as they can be a voice of reason and can be quite disciplined in helping to create a bit more breathing room in your schedule (easier said than done, I know).

    Girl get yourself a COO / Chief of Staff and start delegating more. You do not do anyone any favours by running yourself into the ground and burning out. Take it from someone who took a year off work after running a business pre and post acquisition for a few years. It always feels like you are the only person who can do these things but that's just not true. Much love from a long standing fan since the early uni bedroom days

      @@Grace-Beverley One thing I think should be spoken about more, is that it’s very common to be overwhelmed by work and feel like you have a million things to do all the time. You are unique in that you have millions of eyes watching you and it’s powerful that you can show that so openly. But we should also normalise that it’s totally normal to have up and down days, regardless of your job. “You’re doing great sweetie” .. don’t forget to enjoy the journey (all aspects of it!) God bless you. 🙏🏾❤️
