    You are not complaining, you are showing that you are a human. Life is hard & so many things at once can stress us out. The body is not meant to do all that you, so shout out to you! be gracious with yourself. 🤗

    Thank you for being so honest. I often see your videos and wonder how do you manage to do it all (I am in similar situation with a full time job, side hustle, a house to take care, pets and of course myself) and still have extra time to hang out with friends and do little extra things. I think it's normal to be stressed when you have so much on your plate you constantly try to balance them. So don't worry about complaining and being honest with how you feel 💗Also sometimes, a good breakdown and crying helps a lot to feel motivated and gain clarity! 🤗

    I'm glad you talked about how you have "stress moments" every day, because that is SO relatable! I've often wondered how you made your jam packed schedule seem so effortless! It's almost a relief to know that sometimes things don't go as planned for you either, and that you still have times that you feel overwhelmed. Because girl... SAME! 🫶🏼
    But also, if you ever feel the need to go down to one video a week... that is totally understandable and might give you more space in your life for your hobbies and relaxing. I'm 40 and feeling sooo much burnout over the last few years JUST from my 9-5 (no kids), so I always try to caution people from doing TOO much and burning the candle from both ends. We, as a society, should be prioritizing rest and play and social time WAY more than we do! 🩷

    • @JennaHong
      @JennaHong  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      thank you 🥹 and honestly if i went down to one video a week i know i would still be stressed, staying on two a week is a good routine for me and it keeps me productive in all areas of life. but that's why i schedule a one-video week every 3-4 weeks too to be proactive

    Hi Jenna! Aww, I feel for you so much. I also have a 9 to 5 job, and I’ve been running my blog for over a decade. I also started a TH-cam channel six months ago. I often ask myself what I’m doing when I’m stressed about creating content, but then I remember that when I’m not stressed about it, I like it. 😂 Learning to prioritize my energy and self-care has been a big theme for 2024 so far, and if that means I’m down a video for the week, I say to myself, “Oh well, we’ll try again next week.” You’re doing a great job, and I appreciate your realistic check-in. ❤ YOU GOT THIS!

    It’s actually extremely relatable that you have a full-time job and a side hustle. People are getting laid off left & right and they’re realizing you need a backup plan. Or people aren’t making enough in this economy and need to supplement their income. I know very few people who only do 1 thing.

    Girl you are so real and so relatable! That's why I love you! Eating dinner straight out of the pan/cutting board is something I do alllll the time, and sometimes my partner will do it with me if we're sharing. Why not, less dishes!
    & the reality of the little daily stressors is so valid. They are ~constant~, so of course they're going to build up and make you cry a lil now and then! It's even harder because those are the things you usually can't do much about.
    All that to say, you're doing fantastic and you got this 👏 🫶

    First, your hair is beautiful at any length, but I LOVE the short hair☺️. Second, I know that others have said it already, but being real and saying that you're stressed and not having a good day is NOT complaining. You're a human being and being a human being is hard. There are so many things to do in a day with only so little waking moments. I use to hold back how I felt because I didn't wanna come off as unhappy at certain times, or like I’m complaining, but when people ask how I’m doing now, I say when I’ve had a bad day or when I'm not doing too good. It helps. I'm happy that you're doing better. Having a bad day SUCKS lol. And please, please don't ever sacrifice your sleep or peace for a video. We can and SHOULD wait. You're more important than a video. It can wait 💜

    I feel stress sometimes too. On the other hand youtube is what you make it. It is excess work if you already work. But ultimately i think it’s also about work style. When you began to get to points of stress in general things become unproductive. If stress is low or moderate, productivity can still happen. But we all have these moments.

    Stress can be so difficult because sometimes the stressers are things we can't control. Makes it more important for us to control the things we can. Even when under control stress can really affect your health long-term. Keep evaluating as you move forward.

    Hi Jenna, I was actually always wondering how you are able to run your creator business and having a full time 9 to 5 job. I work only 4 days a week and struggle with that alone. In good phases I can upload a video a month und do stuff for my etsy shop, but often times I just need to rest on my days off. So do what feels right for you and take breaks when needed, you don't have to power through it all. It's okay not to be okay and to rest. btw your hair looks amazing ❤
