Reading all your comments and I wanted to say I’m so so grateful for you all. Thank you for being such an understanding, warm and positive community. I hope that reading the comments under this video makes you feel less alone during this time like it did for me. Love to you all ❤️
"Saying someone shouldn't be sad because it could be worse is like saying someone shouldn't be happy because it could be better" You're allowed to feel however you want ❤️
Exactly!! It annoys me so much when you open up to someone and tell them how you feel and they answer with 'well, think that you're not in a very bad position based on (whatever), there's people who is in a worse position, so you shouldn't feel like that' Noooooo, WRONG! Don't undervalue how someone feels based on that, we're all allowed to feel bad/good despite our situation, privilege or whatever, we're still human.
Also? The light at the end of the tunnel? Is NOT a train... you are right on schedule and right where you are supposed to be in your Gods perfect time... keep moving toward the light...🤗🙋♀️♥️🥰
Oh Jamie!! Thank you for being so authentically you--you are doing a lot: you're working on 2+ businesses, you're moving, there's a pandemic, you have fur babies to look after, you have to look after yourself, and your husband cut off hair he wasn't supposed to. Everything adds up and beats you down eventually no matter how privileged you are. Just a stupid thing called life
Jamie your feelings are valid no matter how your situation might be “better” than others. This pandemic has effected everyone no matter their situation and you don’t need to feel guilty because you have rough days 💕 Good luck with your move! I can’t wait to see your new home 🏡
In some way, many of us feel we don’t have the right to complain, it’s such a normal reaction, I appreciate how difficult it is to do this publicly, but then it shows how real you are and I love that ❤️. I think we are always hardest on ourselves, that’s what friends are for xx
The end got me, Jamie ❤️ It's not DIFFICULT to always have perspective...it's IMPOSSIBLE!! You and Jack bring joy to SO many with your vlogs. It's not just OK to feel "down" at times, it's necessary so you can feel joy when you come back "up." You're doing great!
Aww the ending broke my heart. Jamie you shouldn’t apologise for feeling the way you do. We all have our moments especially atm. But your doing amazing. Keep your chin up sweet ❤️❤️
I am only just watching these VLogs. I didn’t realise that they covered you moving and weirdly I am moving too. Only 18 months later. I just wanted to say how much these vlogs have helped me stay sane, get organised and cope with the emotional overflow. Thank you so much.
A friend was just talking about how we “gaslight” ourselves at the moment, telling ourselves that our feelings aren’t important, that we are being stupid and trying to squeeze our valid feelings and emotions down. We all have good and bad days, weeks and months. I watch you knowing that you are human and have these ups and downs. Please don’t feel the need to sanitise your content to only show the highs. There is enough of that already out there x You never need to apologise, all emotions are valid and necessary. Anger, disappointment, regret all need to be felt and when allowed to run their course give way to peace and calm. Feel all the feels JG
Just because you have a good life, doesn’t mean you can’t have a bad day or week. You’re human and I think everyone who watches your blogs understands that. You’re kinda hard on yourself and I think your best attribute is your humility and gratitude. You DESERVE the things you have and you’re never “entitled”. It’s a joy to watch you and relate to how you feel. Stay strong!
Just because someone else has it worse it doesn’t mean that your struggle is any less significant or difficult in your situation, you are so entitled to feel sad! Thank you for being transparent and real, showing how you feel makes your viewers feel less alone and makes us realise that even though we may be in different boats, we are all in the same storm, lots of love xxx
I think as influencers we are told so often how privileged we are and that we almost have no right to complain and It's so wrong. Yes we may not have the same worries as some but we are living through the same crisis so if you are feeling it one week then go ahead and share it. It helps people more than you know to show the good and bad!
Really Suzy? Well I am sorry that anyone ever says any of that, how dare they. No more privileged than anyone else and entitled to the same as anyone else. 💙💚
You are allowed to be stressed, sad, etc. Your emotions are valid please be kind to yourself because everyone has had so much going on in the last year. No one's feelings are less important it would be odd if your were upbeat all the time. It makes you more relatable just being you! You're lovely X
Please please please don’t downplay your feelings. Every single person is going through things in life and no matter what happens to you, someone will always be in a more difficult position. It’s good to remind yourself that you are lucky and what your grateful for but please let your feelings be felt and & don’t try to downplay them because you feel someone might have it worse. We are all going through it & that’s okay. I hope you find more happiness & peace in the weeks to come ❤️
Your real and your human. You never have to apologise for not feeling 100% all the time as no-one ever does. I’m so happy you showed this at the end as a lot of people are feeling the same or similar so it’s very relatable and makes it easier to know that everyone is feeling abit down at the minute. Thank you for this video and can’t wait for your next ones 💖
I never comment on TH-cam videos but I feel so passionately about this. Yes, it can always be worse but that doesn’t mean that it isn’t bad right now. My favourite analogy is ‘just because the person next to you is in a full body cast, doesn’t mean your broken arm doesn’t hurt’. Never feel guilty for feeling however you may feel, especially at the moment ❤️❤️
Just because you're fortunate and blessed doesn't mean you don't have the right to have bad days/weeks. Especially at the moment, it's ok to let yourself feel a bit shit because allowing yourself to feel that way without beating yourself up is quite helpful sometimes. It also helps you to really appreciate the good times! I just want you to know that I really enjoyed the vlog and I'm glad you decided to upload
Don't ever feel like you should or shouldn't feel a certain way. I really struggled last week, this lockdown has been TOUGH! It's been almost a year of uncertainty and while there is hopefully now a plan to get us out of this it's not set in stone. I do a lot of work on my mindset and have still really struggled so it's 100% ok not to be ok right now!
Aw seeing Jamie cry made me tear up 😭😭 so relatable, I'm inspired to be happier and a more cheerful person by following Jamie, but we are human and of course will have off days especially being so isolated. Thank you for always being such a genuine person 😭❤❤❤
I thought you seemed really excited the whole way through this vlog but it just goes to show that we never know what’s going on behind closed doors, even in situations like this! You can allow yourself to feel sad and upset as well as feeling grateful for the life you have - those things can and should co-exist. Sending you the positive vibes for next week, and hoping that the move goes smoothly and that you feel rested, inspired and a bit happier ❤️❤️
Your feelings are valid Jamie! I often feel guilty for being sad or upset over something but that’s okay! Life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. Don’t ever feel bad for feeling a certain way. We love you🖤🖤
Don’t get angry with yourself for being sad, everyone has their own struggles and we shouldn’t measure whether or not we should allow ourselves to be sad because someone else’s life situation may be ‘worse’. Don’t be so hard on yourself 💗
I dunno if you'll see this Jamie but your raw honesty in these vlogs has made a genuine positive impact on me. I don't see someone who has lost perspective and is entitled, I see someone who I look up to who is being human and sharing it with us ❤️ there's pressure to post ourselves only at our best online when actually these are the moments I've connected with you the most. Thank you for these vlogs and for everything you do x
Apart from being a bit tired, I thought you came across as so excited, positive and hopeful. Don't be so hard on yourself! How are you getting on with the eye cream? Is it worth the money (they don't do testers)? Looking forward to seeing more videos from you. 💐♥️ xxx
One of my favourite things to remember during all this is that while we aren’t all in the same boat, we’re all dealing with the same storm. Don’t beat yourself up about feeling the way you feel, you’re going through this at the same rate the rest of us are, and you’ve had to put major things on hold and make adjustments like the rest of us have. You’re absolutely allowed to feel sad 💕
Awww bless you, just seen the end. You're moving house and there are all the challenges and stress that covid/lockdown brings, you and everyone else, has the right to have an off day, off week, off year!! We're all in the same boat, just different size boats, and we all handle things differently, so don't put pressure on yourself to not be you because that's what we all love about you xx
I think it was refreshing to see the end of that video. I have had my weeks that were struggles as well, as we all have, and I have a very good life and have been very blessed during this time as well. But it’s still a struggle. We are social beings and being isolated from so many we love is very difficult, not to mention the way everyone’s lives were turned upside down over the last year. Watching your vlogs is one of the things I do to keep myself occupied and lift my spirits, so you keep being authentic and we will be here to support and love you through it all!
Hey Jamie, loved your vlog this week. It’s strange times you know. Don’t ever feel worried about what your subscribers might think. We are here because we love you and your content. Your a genuine , real , lovely down to earth person. It’s totally normal to feel sad, and lost at the moment. I think it may feel heightened for you. Because your moving house. Your in a translation phase. Letting go is difficult at the best of times. Wait till you and Jack are in the new house. You’ll not know yourself. Your creativity will come out. You’ll be focused on setting up the place , just as you want it. All the best with the move. Better times are coming. Love your perspective on how to look at lockdowns. Everyday is one day closer to the end goal. It made me feel positive to hear that. Take care of yourself loads of love. Xx
Aww Jamie!! I’ve followed you for years and you’ve always come across as such a positive upbeat person...you are allowed to feel overwhelmed or sad at times that doesn’t mean you don’t appreciate what you have/achieved. It’s such a difficult time for everyone regardless of their situations we all have days! Don’t be so hard on yourself we all love you ❤️❤️
Oh Jamie this brought a tear to my eye, you’re human it doesn’t matter ‘who’ you’re, you’re allowed to feel emotions & everything feels 10x harder at the moment. You’re like a friend to us all but you have to look after yourself. 💗💗💗
Babe, I feel you. I get overwhelmed by all kinds of stuff lately too. I struggle to keep perspective just like you and my own feelings confuse me all the time. Some days are good, some I just try to get through. I’m blessed in many ways and I still don’t feel this way most of the time lately. I hope it gets better this year, for you, for me, for everyone. Sending all of you lots of strength and love.
Awh it makes me sad to see someone struggle about feeling their feelings. It’s ok to feel down and it’s ok to feel negative. It’s human nature. Your feeling are not invalid because someone else may have it worse. We are all in our own heads and we are all allowed to feel bad for ourselves. We heal from that oddly enough and it helps us to feel better eventually. For anyone out there who is struggling. Let it happen let it out and then realize that it’s ok. It’s ok to not be ok as corny as that is. It’s true. Yeah some are more fortunate than others but they are still human and stu have feeling. We are not perfect and that’s 100% ok.
Don’t give yourself a tough time for being a bit flat Jamie!! It’s the reality of the world. You are MOVING house which is a huge stresser. You feel reflective and that can be an odd mix of emotions and you are entitled to feel em. Thanks for sharing (honestly) you make us feel normal. It’s nice to see x
Give yourself a little Grace, everyone suffers even if their suffering doesn’t “compare” to others. You are moving which is incredibly stressful, change isn’t ever easy even if it’s something you are looking forward to. Your feelings are valid, and you are allowed to feel them and share them. Sending love and peace from Oklahoma!
Girl, never be annoyed when you are real. It makes us relate to you more! We’re all struggling. Keep being you....even if you think you’re not being super upbeat.❤️
I can really relate to being upset then looking on the bright side then being cross again at myself, it’s so nice and comforting to know others are doing this too, it’s normal to feel like this and thank you for showing it ❤️
sending my love with you having this stressful time, it's okay to be stressed and have bad days especially when you are moving so soon!! it will all be worth it love you!!
Just because you have people watching you online doesn't mean you don't have the right to feel the feels, Jamie! We know you appreciate everything you have and it's okey to fall apart sometimes. We got you! ❤
You can be as sad as you want, your a human being. You might be a business owner and successful but you worked so hard and mentally run yourself to the ground bringing out such amazing content and products. So be sad if you feel sad, smile if your happy and know we are all here for you
Your Sunday vlogs are keeping me going, you’re doing great hun! Don’t feel bad for feeling sad! I have had an emotional day today as well missing my friends and family so much 💔 but it’s Sunday and the sun is finally shining in Glasgow 🥳 have a great day 😘 x
woo i dont think ive ever seen jamie get upset and teary before, honestly ur posativaty radiates all the time , u brighten my mood every week, its ok to feel down moving is stressfull ontop of everything else going on in the world, love ya girl x
I’m not sure you’ll ever see this but you actually made me laugh in this vlog so many times! we all watch your vlogs as a way to get closer/relate to you in someway or any other. that comes with the good, bad & the sad. I think no matter what circumstances were all in now that were coming up on a year of lock down were reaching a breaking point. You being so raw and yourself helps us to get through this way more than you’ll ever realize!
Jamie YOU are a human being! You are allowed to feel sad and down. This is a hard time for so many this time round. The total halt of normal day to day life is really taking it’s toll. Even strong people are struggling. If you feel you need time out to move and focus on your personal life then take it darling. We will all be here waiting when you come back. We are all in this together. ITS OK NOT TO BE OK ✅ Sending love ❤️xXx
Oh Jamie girl, just because you are more fortunate than others does not mean that your feelings are any less valid. You have a lot on your plate dear girl, and it's okay to feel your feelings. I deal with seasonal depression and this year especially, winter has just beat me down. We will make it through this. Sending you and yours all the love from Philadelphia. 🖤🖤🖤
You don't at all come across moany or negative. You're just a wee distracted cause you've got shit loads on lovely. Talking about this stuff is so much more powerful and inspiring than just shoving it under the carpet. I want you to know how much I appreciate you letting us in weekly. It's helped me through this weird period of life so much. All the love to you Jamie xxx
Oh Jamie - you are allowed to feel your feelings - not every week is going to be upbeat and amazing regardless of your situation. I have stopped watching a number of people over this period because they are not relatable but you are one of my faves - our lives are very different but you are just a lovely genuine human. Good luck with the house move.
Your 'good fortune' is the result of extremely hard work and HEAPS of talent! 💙💙 Your situation does not negate your emotions! And anyone who disagrees I'll happily stick the heid on them 👀
Omg it actually breaks my heart seeing you cry!! You are always allowed to be upset you can’t ever compare yourself, struggling is something we all go through no matter for what reason or on what scale. We all love you loads and are all in this together 🥰
Seeing you cry broke my wee heart angel🥺❤️ It’s okay to be sad, we’re all in same storm but we’re not in the same boat, everyone deals with things different in different ways and that’s okay. You’ll be alright, it can’t last forever. Thanks for being real. Love you xx
Don’t think you come across as woe is me at all, you’re going through this the same way everyone else is and you’re entitled to feel what you feel! Hope the new week is a better one for you ❤️
So glad you were just able to let yourself feel how you needed to feel. Yes there is always someone worse off, but the way you feel right now is so so valid and no one can take that away from you. You’re amazing!
Jamie, my therapist said the collective trauma we're experiencing from the pandemic cannot be overstated. It is devastating everyone. Globally life is shut down, we cannot see people, and all we can do is wait for scientists and politicians to create vaccines and issue mandates. You are allowed to feel distressed, because we're powerless to do anything. You're allowed to feel your feelings, and it is not bad to have "bad" thoughts. Sending good vibes
24:40 I struggle with those feelings too (being sad about something then realizing some have it worse which makes me feel angry at myself). Best advice I ever got from a therapist was just because there are worse situations doesn't mean that you aren't allowed to feel sad about your situation now. You are valid in how you feel.
Hey Jamie we are a mother & daughter who recently started our wreath making business on Instagram and would love to gift you one for you & Jack's new home, pop over to amberandlavender and let us know if you would like one xxxx
Aw Jamie! Don’t beat yourself up about not feeling 100% and not having a good week - that is more than okay and normal! And you’ve got to where you are by being so hard working and relatable and amazing, and seeing you have a moment just shows that even more. We’re all having moments no matter what boat we’re in! Good luck with the move and this will all get better soon ❤️
Oh Jamie 🥺 The ending made me cry because I know we all can relate to everything you’re saying. I’m so ready for normal life. I’ve got a 15 month old son that I so desperately want to do fun things with but with everything being closed and the fear of us getting sick it just sucks. Thankful for your weekly vlogs to keep me sane in this time! I love you guys and am so excited about the move and to see the new house! 💕 xoxoxoxo
Jamie, I have said from the beginning of lockdown in the UK that no matter what other people are doing/feeling it does not diminish how you feel. Someone is always going to be having a worse time or a better time but focus on yourself. Allow yourself to have some time and have some down days because it only makes the good days better, you're only human and we all love you regardless! x
It is very refreshing to see someone like yourself be so raw and open about how u actually feel. I have felt the exact same this week but I cant pin point the exact reason why. Just know it's ok not to be 'on' all the time and it's ok to feel how you feel. Your always an inspiration xx
The end when you said that it's hard to always have perspective. That really resonated with me. I've been trying to 'see the big picture' all this time and its exhausting. More recently I've been finding it so so hard because in reality, the 'now' really sucks sometimes. Thank you for your honesty - love your vlogs so much xx
Never apologise for being real Jamie, we're all going through this and all have bad days and good days. Your 'realness' and honesty is why we all keep coming back. ❤❤❤
Had a wee cry with you at the end of that Jamie 🧡. Yes, there may be people in worse positions but that doesn’t make the way you feel any less valid, and we’re allowed to feel however we want. Things will get better, and like you said - every day we are one step closer. Sending lots of love xxx
Your feelings are so so valid and you shouldnt feel angry for just feeling, even if someones situation is "worse" than your own, that doesnt diminish your own stressful situation and it is still so valid. It's refreshing to see you be so real with your emotions rather than pretend to be happy all the time because thats so not realistic especially during times like this, love you soso much jamie x
One thing I read after I moved which I thought would be so useful for future moves is to pack a suitcase for say one week when you move. Almost like you would if you were going on holiday. That way you know that everything you need (toiletries, clothes, pjs etc) will be in one place so even if you don't get round to unpacking you've got the essentials in one place. I didn't do this but wish I had!!
Ultimately you are only human Jamie, you are one of my faves. You are so REAL. WE WILL GET OUR LIVES BACK. With being in the music biz, it has been horrible, no gigs, no festivals, no making music with my friends :( it all comes in waves..sending love to you all. xx
The world is so crazy at the moment everyone has these types of days! My friend told me the other day this quote:” Even if the person next to you is in a full body cast, doesn't mean your broken arm doesn't hurt. “ Sending positive energies your way. Love your videos! X
I’m sure I’m not the only one who actually appreciates you being open and vulnerable about how you’re really feeling. You have the right to feel upset, overwhelmed, angry, lonely regardless of what may be going on in your life, good or bad. Remember to look after you Jamie. Sending you the biggest ever hug! Xxxx
The end...I feel that so deeply. It's a vicious cycle trying to remind ourselves (for those of us lucky enough) that things are OK, and we're privileged enough to have jobs, homes, etc. But we're not really all ok. The collective trauma is real and sometimes we just have to feel the way we do. Wishing you a better day tomorrow.
The end chat and these comments are so helpful as someone who’s struggling with depression rn and unable to see their boyfriend and much of a light at the end of the tunnel. Everyone around me seems to be fine and carrying on with their lives and my goal is literally just to get through the day to go back to sleep and keep doing that until things improve so thanks for being honest because sometimes it really does feel like everyone’s got their shizzle together bar me 🤍
The end of this left me with a lump in my throat. Conflicting feelings are the worst - just because someone else’s struggles seem worse than yours, doesn’t discount the fact you’re struggling too. Thank you for letting us in like that and showing vulnerability, sending lots of love ❤️
You are far too hard on yourself doll! Showing us that life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. It’s nice to feel that you’re not alone. Life is hard at the moment and you are only human. You need to let yourself feel the sad times in order to appreciate the happy times. Love your vlogs ❤️❤️❤️
Oh Jamie.. we all have our tough days, sad weeks, miserable months.. to be perfectly honest I’m glad you shared this video ☺️ you and your vlogs feel all the more REAL to your viewers because you post how you TRULY feel and what you TRULY do in your day today life, without the preconceived notion of needing to do “exciting things” for a video, or having to be happy 24/7! ❤️ When you are truly YOURSELF you portray the most honest version of yourself... and that’s who we’re all here to see ❤️🥰 we love youuuuu Jamie (and Jack). Good luck with your move 🏡 we wish you all the best
Don't beat yourself up Jamie, you are allowed to let your feelings show, no-one can be bubbly and possitive all the time. Being real and honest is why we love you guys X take time for you and Jack, make sure you always look after yourselves first, the you tube community would never want you to feel pressured to keep banging out content when you don't feel up to it. Take a deep breath and know we all have off days ❤️
Oh Jamie, your chat at the end resonated so deeply. Something my therapist reminds me a lot is that emotions are just feelings - not concrete evidence of morals, just reactions to everything going on and past experience. Moving is stressful, distancing from family and friends is isolating, starting a new brand is exhausting. Yes, other people's struggles are different, but minimising your own experiences only layers on guilt which isn't productive. I hope next week is brighter and happier and the pockets of joy are easier to find
Never put yourself down for feeling upset or down. I recently went through counselling, and also mentioned that I felt guilty for feeling like shit when there are people worse off out there. My counsellor told me that even though there are always going to be people worse off, it doesn't take away from what we are going through in this current climate. It is so overwhelming. I think viewers appreciate seeing this as they may think that they are alone in having the same feelings. 💗
The biggest reason you're my favorite person, is because regardless of where you are in life- high or low. You're always relatable 'human' and you don't pretend to always be perfect, so don't feel bad and change. I respect that in you so so much because of that you will only continue to grow! Love ya 🤍
Awk Jamie, so many of us feel the same way you do. I've been so drained recently and so sad, and you can tell yourself how lucky you are all the time but that doesn't mean you can't feel sad. I don't think any of us who love watching your content (because of how fabulous you are) would ever blame you for not being super happy positive ALL the time!! We all need a wee cry and you're just showing life ❤️
Aww sweetheart, please don’t apologise. You’re overwhelmed with everything that’s going on and it’s been going on for far too long now. There’s a term that’s being used which Is “Covid Lockdown Fatigue”......House moving is the 3rd most stressful thing to deal with after death and divorce. You brighten A LOT of people’s Sunday, and you are so relatable, that’s what we all love about you. You are the “Real Deal” and we wouldn’t want you any other way. Please never change❤️
It’s so important to feel your feels!! In the prairies 🇨🇦 it’s been -45 for a week or two and now we’re being treated with -5 and sun! There is hope. It’s okay to have a sad moment, as long as we do not to unpack and live there
Jamie never feel like that! Totally normal to feel the way your feeling and you should be able to express how you feel no matter what so don’t feel guilty for it! We’re all having our down days right now no matter if your in a good situation or a bad one, so hard being away from friends & family! Sending love 🤍🤍
Reading all your comments and I wanted to say I’m so so grateful for you all. Thank you for being such an understanding, warm and positive community. I hope that reading the comments under this video makes you feel less alone during this time like it did for me. Love to you all ❤️
Such a lovely sentiment. Just remember the times when we're sad or down mean we can appreciate the highs and happy times even more.
💛💛💛
Thanks for sharing your vulnerability xx
Jamie you are adorable, look after you x
Please film all these declutter things, you packing everything out do 😀 would love to watch it all xx
"Saying someone shouldn't be sad because it could be worse is like saying someone shouldn't be happy because it could be better"
You're allowed to feel however you want ❤️
Exactly this!!! 💖💖
Exactly!! It annoys me so much when you open up to someone and tell them how you feel and they answer with 'well, think that you're not in a very bad position based on (whatever), there's people who is in a worse position, so you shouldn't feel like that' Noooooo, WRONG! Don't undervalue how someone feels based on that, we're all allowed to feel bad/good despite our situation, privilege or whatever, we're still human.
I needed to hear this today. Thank you ❤️
I was just about to comment this!! It’s my favourite saying. Everyone is fully entitled to feel like shit at times!
the end, so relatable: feeling guilty about being sad. there is light at the end of the tunnel :) thank you for the videos every week.
Also? The light at the end of the tunnel? Is NOT a train... you are right on schedule and right where you are supposed to be in your Gods perfect time... keep moving toward the light...🤗🙋♀️♥️🥰
Everybody is allowed to feel sad or stressed out and take a break from everything xxxx
Oh Jamie!! Thank you for being so authentically you--you are doing a lot: you're working on 2+ businesses, you're moving, there's a pandemic, you have fur babies to look after, you have to look after yourself, and your husband cut off hair he wasn't supposed to. Everything adds up and beats you down eventually no matter how privileged you are. Just a stupid thing called life
Jamie your feelings are valid no matter how your situation might be “better” than others. This pandemic has effected everyone no matter their situation and you don’t need to feel guilty because you have rough days 💕 Good luck with your move! I can’t wait to see your new home 🏡
Absolutely this🖤
In some way, many of us feel we don’t have the right to complain, it’s such a normal reaction, I appreciate how difficult it is to do this publicly, but then it shows how real you are and I love that ❤️. I think we are always hardest on ourselves, that’s what friends are for xx
“What were you on about, buy the slice” howling at how offended u were 🤣🤣🤣
The end got me, Jamie ❤️ It's not DIFFICULT to always have perspective...it's IMPOSSIBLE!! You and Jack bring joy to SO many with your vlogs. It's not just OK to feel "down" at times, it's necessary so you can feel joy when you come back "up." You're doing great!
Aww the ending broke my heart. Jamie you shouldn’t apologise for feeling the way you do. We all have our moments especially atm. But your doing amazing. Keep your chin up sweet ❤️❤️
I am only just watching these VLogs. I didn’t realise that they covered you moving and weirdly I am moving too. Only 18 months later. I just wanted to say how much these vlogs have helped me stay sane, get organised and cope with the emotional overflow. Thank you so much.
A friend was just talking about how we “gaslight” ourselves at the moment, telling ourselves that our feelings aren’t important, that we are being stupid and trying to squeeze our valid feelings and emotions down.
We all have good and bad days, weeks and months. I watch you knowing that you are human and have these ups and downs. Please don’t feel the need to sanitise your content to only show the highs. There is enough of that already out there x You never need to apologise, all emotions are valid and necessary. Anger, disappointment, regret all need to be felt and when allowed to run their course give way to peace and calm. Feel all the feels JG
It’s okay to be sad. We all struggle sometimes but the fact you show it on your vlogs makes you one amazing person 💕
Just because you have a good life, doesn’t mean you can’t have a bad day or week. You’re human and I think everyone who watches your blogs understands that. You’re kinda hard on yourself and I think your best attribute is your humility and gratitude. You DESERVE the things you have and you’re never “entitled”. It’s a joy to watch you and relate to how you feel. Stay strong!
Just because someone else has it worse it doesn’t mean that your struggle is any less significant or difficult in your situation, you are so entitled to feel sad! Thank you for being transparent and real, showing how you feel makes your viewers feel less alone and makes us realise that even though we may be in different boats, we are all in the same storm, lots of love xxx
I think as influencers we are told so often how privileged we are and that we almost have no right to complain and It's so wrong. Yes we may not have the same worries as some but we are living through the same crisis so if you are feeling it one week then go ahead and share it. It helps people more than you know to show the good and bad!
Really Suzy? Well I am sorry that anyone ever says any of that, how dare they. No more privileged than anyone else and entitled to the same as anyone else. 💙💚

You are allowed to be stressed, sad, etc. Your emotions are valid please be kind to yourself because everyone has had so much going on in the last year. No one's feelings are less important it would be odd if your were upbeat all the time. It makes you more relatable just being you! You're lovely X
Please please please don’t downplay your feelings. Every single person is going through things in life and no matter what happens to you, someone will always be in a more difficult position. It’s good to remind yourself that you are lucky and what your grateful for but please let your feelings be felt and & don’t try to downplay them because you feel someone might have it worse. We are all going through it & that’s okay. I hope you find more happiness & peace in the weeks to come ❤️
It’s okay to have bad days. I know better ones are ahead for you. I appreciate your honesty. It’s relatable.
If you come across a VIEVE jumper in your closet clear out, I know a good home for it 👀😂 Can’t wait for them to launch 🙌🏻
me too!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Me three 🥰🥰
Your real and your human. You never have to apologise for not feeling 100% all the time as no-one ever does. I’m so happy you showed this at the end as a lot of people are feeling the same or similar so it’s very relatable and makes it easier to know that everyone is feeling abit down at the minute. Thank you for this video and can’t wait for your next ones 💖
We’re all feeling very much the same hun! We’re all a bit fragile but there’s light at the end of the tunnel and we’ll get there❤️
I never comment on TH-cam videos but I feel so passionately about this. Yes, it can always be worse but that doesn’t mean that it isn’t bad right now. My favourite analogy is ‘just because the person next to you is in a full body cast, doesn’t mean your broken arm doesn’t hurt’. Never feel guilty for feeling however you may feel, especially at the moment ❤️❤️
Just because you're fortunate and blessed doesn't mean you don't have the right to have bad days/weeks. Especially at the moment, it's ok to let yourself feel a bit shit because allowing yourself to feel that way without beating yourself up is quite helpful sometimes. It also helps you to really appreciate the good times! I just want you to know that I really enjoyed the vlog and I'm glad you decided to upload
Don't ever feel like you should or shouldn't feel a certain way. I really struggled last week, this lockdown has been TOUGH! It's been almost a year of uncertainty and while there is hopefully now a plan to get us out of this it's not set in stone. I do a lot of work on my mindset and have still really struggled so it's 100% ok not to be ok right now!
Aw seeing Jamie cry made me tear up 😭😭 so relatable, I'm inspired to be happier and a more cheerful person by following Jamie, but we are human and of course will have off days especially being so isolated. Thank you for always being such a genuine person 😭❤❤❤
I started to cry when you cried at the end 😭 I think we’ve all felt like that many times through this lockdown ❤️
Same x
Me too ☹️
Yeppa yeppa!
Same
I thought you seemed really excited the whole way through this vlog but it just goes to show that we never know what’s going on behind closed doors, even in situations like this!
You can allow yourself to feel sad and upset as well as feeling grateful for the life you have - those things can and should co-exist.
Sending you the positive vibes for next week, and hoping that the move goes smoothly and that you feel rested, inspired and a bit happier ❤️❤️
I’ve had the shittiest week and been so depressed . So this really lifted my spirit 😃. I love Jamie and jack so much ❤️
Your feelings are valid Jamie! I often feel guilty for being sad or upset over something but that’s okay! Life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. Don’t ever feel bad for feeling a certain way. We love you🖤🖤
Don’t get angry with yourself for being sad, everyone has their own struggles and we shouldn’t measure whether or not we should allow ourselves to be sad because someone else’s life situation may be ‘worse’. Don’t be so hard on yourself 💗
I dunno if you'll see this Jamie but your raw honesty in these vlogs has made a genuine positive impact on me. I don't see someone who has lost perspective and is entitled, I see someone who I look up to who is being human and sharing it with us ❤️ there's pressure to post ourselves only at our best online when actually these are the moments I've connected with you the most. Thank you for these vlogs and for everything you do x
Apart from being a bit tired, I thought you came across as so excited, positive and hopeful. Don't be so hard on yourself! How are you getting on with the eye cream? Is it worth the money (they don't do testers)? Looking forward to seeing more videos from you. 💐♥️ xxx
I couldn't agree more, love you Jamie 💕
One of my favourite things to remember during all this is that while we aren’t all in the same boat, we’re all dealing with the same storm. Don’t beat yourself up about feeling the way you feel, you’re going through this at the same rate the rest of us are, and you’ve had to put major things on hold and make adjustments like the rest of us have. You’re absolutely allowed to feel sad 💕
Awww bless you, just seen the end. You're moving house and there are all the challenges and stress that covid/lockdown brings, you and everyone else, has the right to have an off day, off week, off year!! We're all in the same boat, just different size boats, and we all handle things differently, so don't put pressure on yourself to not be you because that's what we all love about you xx
I think it was refreshing to see the end of that video. I have had my weeks that were struggles as well, as we all have, and I have a very good life and have been very blessed during this time as well. But it’s still a struggle. We are social beings and being isolated from so many we love is very difficult, not to mention the way everyone’s lives were turned upside down over the last year. Watching your vlogs is one of the things I do to keep myself occupied and lift my spirits, so you keep being authentic and we will be here to support and love you through it all!
Hey Jamie, loved your vlog this week. It’s strange times you know. Don’t ever feel worried about what your subscribers might think. We are here because we love you and your content. Your a genuine , real , lovely down to earth person. It’s totally normal to feel sad, and lost at the moment. I think it may feel heightened for you. Because your moving house. Your in a translation phase. Letting go is difficult at the best of times. Wait till you and Jack are in the new house. You’ll not know yourself. Your creativity will come out. You’ll be focused on setting up the place , just as you want it. All the best with the move. Better times are coming. Love your perspective on how to look at lockdowns. Everyday is one day closer to the end goal. It made me feel positive to hear that. Take care of yourself loads of love. Xx
Aww Jamie!! I’ve followed you for years and you’ve always come across as such a positive upbeat person...you are allowed to feel overwhelmed or sad at times that doesn’t mean you don’t appreciate what you have/achieved. It’s such a difficult time for everyone regardless of their situations we all have days!
Don’t be so hard on yourself we all love you ❤️❤️
Oh Jamie this brought a tear to my eye, you’re human it doesn’t matter ‘who’ you’re, you’re allowed to feel emotions & everything feels 10x harder at the moment. You’re like a friend to us all but you have to look after yourself. 💗💗💗
Moving is super stressful - no need to apologize for anything - you are so relatable & we all love your vlogs 💖
Babe, I feel you. I get overwhelmed by all kinds of stuff lately too. I struggle to keep perspective just like you and my own feelings confuse me all the time. Some days are good, some I just try to get through. I’m blessed in many ways and I still don’t feel this way most of the time lately. I hope it gets better this year, for you, for me, for everyone.
Sending all of you lots of strength and love.
Jamie you are such a kind soul and thank you for being real and showing us we can’t be happy all the time! Sending all my love x
Awh it makes me sad to see someone struggle about feeling their feelings. It’s ok to feel down and it’s ok to feel negative. It’s human nature. Your feeling are not invalid because someone else may have it worse. We are all in our own heads and we are all allowed to feel bad for ourselves. We heal from that oddly enough and it helps us to feel better eventually. For anyone out there who is struggling. Let it happen let it out and then realize that it’s ok. It’s ok to not be ok as corny as that is. It’s true. Yeah some are more fortunate than others but they are still human and stu have feeling. We are not perfect and that’s 100% ok.
Don’t give yourself a tough time for being a bit flat Jamie!! It’s the reality of the world.
You are MOVING house which is a huge stresser.
You feel reflective and that can be an odd mix of emotions and you are entitled to feel em. Thanks for sharing (honestly) you make us feel normal. It’s nice to see x
Give yourself a little Grace, everyone suffers even if their suffering doesn’t “compare” to others. You are moving which is incredibly stressful, change isn’t ever easy even if it’s something you are looking forward to. Your feelings are valid, and you are allowed to feel them and share them. Sending love and peace from Oklahoma!
Girl, never be annoyed when you are real. It makes us relate to you more! We’re all struggling. Keep being you....even if you think you’re not being super upbeat.❤️
Just because someone has it worse than you, it doesn’t mean your feelings are invalid. Be mad. Be sad. Be happy. Be excited. Just be what you feel.
I can really relate to being upset then looking on the bright side then being cross again at myself, it’s so nice and comforting to know others are doing this too, it’s normal to feel like this and thank you for showing it ❤️
sending my love with you having this stressful time, it's okay to be stressed and have bad days especially when you are moving so soon!! it will all be worth it love you!!
Just because you have people watching you online doesn't mean you don't have the right to feel the feels, Jamie! We know you appreciate everything you have and it's okey to fall apart sometimes. We got you! ❤
Awww Jamie , moving is the most stressful time .... AND in the middle of a pandemic
Great to see real ness xx
You can be as sad as you want, your a human being. You might be a business owner and successful but you worked so hard and mentally run yourself to the ground bringing out such amazing content and products. So be sad if you feel sad, smile if your happy and know we are all here for you
Your Sunday vlogs are keeping me going, you’re doing great hun! Don’t feel bad for feeling sad! I have had an emotional day today as well missing my friends and family so much 💔 but it’s Sunday and the sun is finally shining in Glasgow 🥳 have a great day 😘 x
woo i dont think ive ever seen jamie get upset and teary before, honestly ur posativaty radiates all the time , u brighten my mood every week, its ok to feel down moving is stressfull ontop of everything else going on in the world, love ya girl x
The amount of serotonin I get from Jamie saying "it's Wednesday my dudes" is a bit embarrassing
I’m not sure you’ll ever see this but you actually made me laugh in this vlog so many times! we all watch your vlogs as a way to get closer/relate to you in someway or any other. that comes with the good, bad & the sad. I think no matter what circumstances were all in now that were coming up on a year of lock down were reaching a breaking point. You being so raw and yourself helps us to get through this way more than you’ll ever realize!
Been having such a weird and anxious week as well and this is just what I needed xx
Jamie YOU are a human being! You are allowed to feel sad and down. This is a hard time for so many this time round. The total halt of normal day to day life is really taking it’s toll. Even strong people are struggling. If you feel you need time out to move and focus on your personal life then take it darling. We will all be here waiting when you come back. We are all in this together. ITS OK NOT TO BE OK ✅ Sending love ❤️xXx
Absolutely lost it when Jack handed the hair to Jamie 😂😂😂
Oh Jamie girl, just because you are more fortunate than others does not mean that your feelings are any less valid. You have a lot on your plate dear girl, and it's okay to feel your feelings. I deal with seasonal depression and this year especially, winter has just beat me down. We will make it through this. Sending you and yours all the love from Philadelphia. 🖤🖤🖤
And suddenly my day just got a whole lot better 💚💚💚
You don't at all come across moany or negative. You're just a wee distracted cause you've got shit loads on lovely.
Talking about this stuff is so much more powerful and inspiring than just shoving it under the carpet. I want you to know how much I appreciate you letting us in weekly. It's helped me through this weird period of life so much. All the love to you Jamie xxx
Literally all I look forward to. Still adore using your products every single time I put make up on ❤️❤️
Oh Jamie - you are allowed to feel your feelings - not every week is going to be upbeat and amazing regardless of your situation. I have stopped watching a number of people over this period because they are not relatable but you are one of my faves - our lives are very different but you are just a lovely genuine human. Good luck with the house move.
Your 'good fortune' is the result of extremely hard work and HEAPS of talent! 💙💙 Your situation does not negate your emotions!
And anyone who disagrees I'll happily stick the heid on them 👀
Omg it actually breaks my heart seeing you cry!! You are always allowed to be upset you can’t ever compare yourself, struggling is something we all go through no matter for what reason or on what scale. We all love you loads and are all in this together 🥰
The way you said “by the slice” so ✨spicy✨ ...it absolutely sent me 😂
Seeing you cry broke my wee heart angel🥺❤️
It’s okay to be sad, we’re all in same storm but we’re not in the same boat, everyone deals with things different in different ways and that’s okay. You’ll be alright, it can’t last forever. Thanks for being real. Love you xx
Don’t think you come across as woe is me at all, you’re going through this the same way everyone else is and you’re entitled to feel what you feel! Hope the new week is a better one for you ❤️
So glad you were just able to let yourself feel how you needed to feel. Yes there is always someone worse off, but the way you feel right now is so so valid and no one can take that away from you. You’re amazing!
Jamie, my therapist said the collective trauma we're experiencing from the pandemic cannot be overstated. It is devastating everyone. Globally life is shut down, we cannot see people, and all we can do is wait for scientists and politicians to create vaccines and issue mandates. You are allowed to feel distressed, because we're powerless to do anything. You're allowed to feel your feelings, and it is not bad to have "bad" thoughts. Sending good vibes
24:40 I struggle with those feelings too (being sad about something then realizing some have it worse which makes me feel angry at myself). Best advice I ever got from a therapist was just because there are worse situations doesn't mean that you aren't allowed to feel sad about your situation now. You are valid in how you feel.
Hey Jamie we are a mother & daughter who recently started our wreath making business on Instagram and would love to gift you one for you & Jack's new home, pop over to amberandlavender and let us know if you would like one xxxx
Aw Jamie! Don’t beat yourself up about not feeling 100% and not having a good week - that is more than okay and normal! And you’ve got to where you are by being so hard working and relatable and amazing, and seeing you have a moment just shows that even more. We’re all having moments no matter what boat we’re in! Good luck with the move and this will all get better soon ❤️
Oh Jamie 🥺 The ending made me cry because I know we all can relate to everything you’re saying. I’m so ready for normal life. I’ve got a 15 month old son that I so desperately want to do fun things with but with everything being closed and the fear of us getting sick it just sucks. Thankful for your weekly vlogs to keep me sane in this time! I love you guys and am so excited about the move and to see the new house! 💕 xoxoxoxo
Jamie, I have said from the beginning of lockdown in the UK that no matter what other people are doing/feeling it does not diminish how you feel. Someone is always going to be having a worse time or a better time but focus on yourself. Allow yourself to have some time and have some down days because it only makes the good days better, you're only human and we all love you regardless! x
It is very refreshing to see someone like yourself be so raw and open about how u actually feel. I have felt the exact same this week but I cant pin point the exact reason why. Just know it's ok not to be 'on' all the time and it's ok to feel how you feel. Your always an inspiration xx
The end when you said that it's hard to always have perspective. That really resonated with me. I've been trying to 'see the big picture' all this time and its exhausting. More recently I've been finding it so so hard because in reality, the 'now' really sucks sometimes. Thank you for your honesty - love your vlogs so much xx
You don’t need to apologise Jamie. You are very real and that’s what’s make everyone love you. Hope your week is better xxx
Never apologise for being real Jamie, we're all going through this and all have bad days and good days. Your 'realness' and honesty is why we all keep coming back. ❤❤❤
Had a wee cry with you at the end of that Jamie 🧡. Yes, there may be people in worse positions but that doesn’t make the way you feel any less valid, and we’re allowed to feel however we want. Things will get better, and like you said - every day we are one step closer. Sending lots of love xxx
Your feelings are so so valid and you shouldnt feel angry for just feeling, even if someones situation is "worse" than your own, that doesnt diminish your own stressful situation and it is still so valid. It's refreshing to see you be so real with your emotions rather than pretend to be happy all the time because thats so not realistic especially during times like this, love you soso much jamie x
One thing I read after I moved which I thought would be so useful for future moves is to pack a suitcase for say one week when you move. Almost like you would if you were going on holiday. That way you know that everything you need (toiletries, clothes, pjs etc) will be in one place so even if you don't get round to unpacking you've got the essentials in one place. I didn't do this but wish I had!!
Ultimately you are only human Jamie, you are one of my faves. You are so REAL. WE WILL GET OUR LIVES BACK. With being in the music biz, it has been horrible, no gigs, no festivals, no making music with my friends :( it all comes in waves..sending love to you all. xx
The world is so crazy at the moment everyone has these types of days! My friend told me the other day this quote:” Even if the person next to you is in a full body cast, doesn't mean your broken arm doesn't hurt. “
Sending positive energies your way. Love your videos! X
I’m sure I’m not the only one who actually appreciates you being open and vulnerable about how you’re really feeling. You have the right to feel upset, overwhelmed, angry, lonely regardless of what may be going on in your life, good or bad. Remember to look after you Jamie. Sending you the biggest ever hug! Xxxx
The end...I feel that so deeply. It's a vicious cycle trying to remind ourselves (for those of us lucky enough) that things are OK, and we're privileged enough to have jobs, homes, etc. But we're not really all ok. The collective trauma is real and sometimes we just have to feel the way we do. Wishing you a better day tomorrow.
The end chat and these comments are so helpful as someone who’s struggling with depression rn and unable to see their boyfriend and much of a light at the end of the tunnel. Everyone around me seems to be fine and carrying on with their lives and my goal is literally just to get through the day to go back to sleep and keep doing that until things improve so thanks for being honest because sometimes it really does feel like everyone’s got their shizzle together bar me 🤍
The end of this left me with a lump in my throat. Conflicting feelings are the worst - just because someone else’s struggles seem worse than yours, doesn’t discount the fact you’re struggling too. Thank you for letting us in like that and showing vulnerability, sending lots of love ❤️
You are far too hard on yourself doll! Showing us that life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. It’s nice to feel that you’re not alone. Life is hard at the moment and you are only human. You need to let yourself feel the sad times in order to appreciate the happy times. Love your vlogs ❤️❤️❤️
Oh Jamie.. we all have our tough days, sad weeks, miserable months.. to be perfectly honest I’m glad you shared this video ☺️ you and your vlogs feel all the more REAL to your viewers because you post how you TRULY feel and what you TRULY do in your day today life, without the preconceived notion of needing to do “exciting things” for a video, or having to be happy 24/7! ❤️ When you are truly YOURSELF you portray the most honest version of yourself... and that’s who we’re all here to see ❤️🥰 we love youuuuu Jamie (and Jack). Good luck with your move 🏡 we wish you all the best
Don't beat yourself up Jamie, you are allowed to let your feelings show, no-one can be bubbly and possitive all the time. Being real and honest is why we love you guys X take time for you and Jack, make sure you always look after yourselves first, the you tube community would never want you to feel pressured to keep banging out content when you don't feel up to it. Take a deep breath and know we all have off days ❤️
Oh Jamie, your chat at the end resonated so deeply. Something my therapist reminds me a lot is that emotions are just feelings - not concrete evidence of morals, just reactions to everything going on and past experience. Moving is stressful, distancing from family and friends is isolating, starting a new brand is exhausting. Yes, other people's struggles are different, but minimising your own experiences only layers on guilt which isn't productive. I hope next week is brighter and happier and the pockets of joy are easier to find
Never put yourself down for feeling upset or down. I recently went through counselling, and also mentioned that I felt guilty for feeling like shit when there are people worse off out there. My counsellor told me that even though there are always going to be people worse off, it doesn't take away from what we are going through in this current climate. It is so overwhelming. I think viewers appreciate seeing this as they may think that they are alone in having the same feelings. 💗
We live you Jamie and Jack. 🤍 your authenticity is always appreciated xxx
The biggest reason you're my favorite person, is because regardless of where you are in life- high or low. You're always relatable 'human' and you don't pretend to always be perfect, so don't feel bad and change. I respect that in you so so much because of that you will only continue to grow! Love ya 🤍
Awk Jamie, so many of us feel the same way you do. I've been so drained recently and so sad, and you can tell yourself how lucky you are all the time but that doesn't mean you can't feel sad. I don't think any of us who love watching your content (because of how fabulous you are) would ever blame you for not being super happy positive ALL the time!! We all need a wee cry and you're just showing life ❤️
Aww sweetheart, please don’t apologise. You’re overwhelmed with everything that’s going on and it’s been going on for far too long now. There’s a term that’s being used which Is “Covid Lockdown Fatigue”......House moving is the 3rd most stressful thing to deal with after death and divorce. You brighten A LOT of people’s Sunday, and you are so relatable, that’s what we all love about you. You are the “Real Deal” and we wouldn’t want you any other way. Please never change❤️
It’s so important to feel your feels!! In the prairies 🇨🇦 it’s been -45 for a week or two and now we’re being treated with -5 and sun! There is hope. It’s okay to have a sad moment, as long as we do not to unpack and live there
Aw bless, don’t be so hard on yourself. A lot of us feel the same, which makes you so relatable and genuine. Love you xx
Jamie never feel like that! Totally normal to feel the way your feeling and you should be able to express how you feel no matter what so don’t feel guilty for it!
We’re all having our down days right now no matter if your in a good situation or a bad one, so hard being away from friends & family!
Sending love 🤍🤍
