weekly vlog: come on a work trip with me - running a business, harvard, trying to stay sane

[@tallulahxrose]

Dear Santa for Christmas I would like Grace to put her uni vlogs back up

[@chiziyarawoka3413]

Dear Santa, that’s all I’d want to

[@lisacollymore1563]

They were very therapeutic to watch! 😊

[@jimeruiz3415]

Pretty please ! Been wishing for this for years. They were my comfort videos 💗

[@blessings7875]

Sameee

[@KemuelSemase]

This makes me miss your vlogs from uni while you were still starting your business ❤

[@Grace-Beverley]

hahaha recording it made me miss them!

[@sunpi]

Omg her uni vlogs!

[@Emi-km9tc]

I wish she didn’t delete them

[@terezac5583]

I know 😭 she used to be my biggest uni motivation​@@Emi-km9tc

[@SavannahSkyeEvans]

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 ❤❤

[@jules_cart]

Grace you are a literal BOSS QUEEN, but even boss queens need to prioritize rest. Breaks my heart to see you at the 34-minute mark. Your best self is your rested self, schedule in non-negotiable R&R! Work will always be there no matter what. Love your vlogs! Sending love and all of the best vibes!

[@JulienizBaez]

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! ❤

[@sunpi]

Finally the vlogs are back 😭 I missed them so much

[@cassiecrotzer]

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 ❤

[@HelenaLienNielsen]

Grace I never comment on anything on here - but thank youuuuu for this sharing this week in your life and being transparent about the challenges you face as a founder. Pleaseeee keep the vlogs coming 🥺💛

[@paijhamilton3683]

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 ❤

[@fallonpretorius3577]

So grateful you kept it raw and unfiltered.... how messy life and work is, shit sleep, bad skin, and tears of overwhelm 😅❤ I feel so much less alone... You truly inspire me to do better and get my ass up and at it. Lots of love from South Africa 🎉❤

[@zikrabouhafs]

It’s okay to feel emotional and cry. It’s not stupid. Allow yourself to cry and feel all the emotions. Sending you so much love 🖤

[@CffeeLucy]

I don’t often comment on KZbin videos, but I absolutely love this vlog They are my favourite type of videos. They are really chilled but also motivating ,inspiring,Interesting ,fun and I just find it amazing to see what the people I see on social media do day to day! can’t wait for more videos like this from you :) ❤️

[@cassiemallon8445]

thank you so much for including that bit where you got upset. so validating to normalise feeling overwhelmed and finding hard to balance all the amazing things you're doing. no one is perfect and your life often looks perfect ahahha but this was comforting to see the other perspective that not every day is a movie.

[@RainBow-wp2lv]

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❤

[@sophiacohen1249]

so appreciate your vulnerability and showing all of it, the glamor and the struggle. your vlogs are my favorite ever, i always get so happy when a new one comes out. i look forward to tuning in in the future and hearing you talk abt how you've found that balance and can enjoy these opportunities without the burnout. it's hard but if anyone can do it, it's you!

[@gillianquirke2762]

Loved this vlog so much and so appreciate how honest and open you are with the struggles/lows alongside the highs of owning your own business. You are so inspiring and should be so incredibly proud of yourself and how hard you work.❤

[@OMO06]

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

[@lwandeagape]

Your transparency in every area that you show us is admirable. “Look how far you’ve come” “You did the best you could with what you knew at the time. The only reason you know better now is because you lived through it and learned.” 35:01

[@sarahiftikhar1985]

Omg your book choices made me love you even more 🥺🇵🇸

[@sarahiftikhar1985]

Also thank you for showing the raw truth, I love that you’re always so honest. Hope your feeling better 💕

[@denarendall]

40 mins of Grez? Oh what a treaaaaaat! Very glad you chose to vlog this specific trip as Boston has been on my bucket list for ages now. It looks so beautiful and romantic. Hope you had the best time ever! Can’t believe how crazy it must feel for you seeing TALA in the wild (especially in other countries) and speaking at HARVARD???? Wanna be you when I grow up!

[@asimahrizvi9668]

This was so nostalgic to watch! And such an old school style of video! Amazing to see how far you have come over the years I have watched you! 💙💙💙

[@tinag.617]

Girl, I normally do not comment but this vlog had it all ❤thanks for the vibes, the atmosphere, the real ness, the inspiration, lots of love from Germany. You’re literally A QUEEN 🎉

[@merisoo3051]

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

[@eleabolar]

I’m sooo glad you’re back routinely to KZbin. I love your videos so much and find your personality so calming! Love vlogs and all topics you speak on! Would loveeee more running/hiking videos sometime…I watch your playlist for hiking when I feel like some cozy background company!! ❤

[@chelseamunyuki4215]

Thank you for being vulnerable with us. Glad you started feeling better, you’re killing it! So inspirational ❤

[@Demiwmy]

Just want to give you a huge hug because you are so hard on yourself. We know you love your career and you are definitely working hard, but it’s never going to end, and you’re so right to say you are working hard for all these experiences. Please remember to LIVE while you are pushing yourself so hard, please grab that drink the next time!!!! LIVE, please ❤ work and play hard ❤❤❤❤❤

[@lauraholden1784]

Grace, you saying these emotions are stupid, kills me. It’s not stupid, you are human. The balance between having control and letting go of responsibilities is tough. You work hard to ensure every customer has high quality goods, but you also need to have a high quality life. Over time Work might change and that’s fine, just spent everyday how you want to spend them, not everyone else. You are an inspiration

[@jasminmirpuri461]

Broke my heart to see you cry 🥺 you are without a doubt my absolute hero Grace! I never fangirl over anyone but watching you speak at websummit was the reason I went❤ thank you for gracing us with your insane talents and beautiful products! I hope you get the rest you deserve soon ❤️

[@brookeconlon8818]

YES THIS IS WHAT WE NEED LONG DIML VLOGS THANKYOU 🩷🩵🩵🩵🩵

[@caoimhehogan4229]

this is the best day ever!!!! Absolutely love your vlogs :)

[@Grace-Beverley]

Thank you!! Let me know what you think about this one I never used to do a whole week!

[@melaniegroah6736]

@@Grace-Beverleyloved it! Missed seeing your vlogs!

[@melissakerin8391]

Vulnerability is useful for self reflection, recalibration and redirection. Thank you for sharing this with us. As a fellow workaholic, I relate so much to this freeze / emotional state when it all gets too much! You work so hard, and deserve to make space for fun. Problems will always exist within any workplace, but they are always solvable, regardless if you take yourself on a 20 minute walk or meet someone for a drink 😊

[@taniaasimionesei]

Congrats on your amazing bucket list moments and thank you so much for sharing your authentic week, not just the highlights. I had weeks when I would travel to London for work and between team activities, 1:1 with the team members, workshops, QBRs, HBRs and stakeholder catchups, I would always feel like I'm behind on my work as I would leave my hotel room at 7am and come back at midnight. So ended up spending my 8h flight back and the weekend just working to get back to the surface line. Thank you for not making me feel alone in this crazy path and hope you manage to celebrate your pinch-me milestones :)

[@pardiehgoerl]

i looooved this long vlog. and thank you so much for being so real and vulnerable.

[@alishajesudasen-adams4581]

Everything at 35 mins is exactly my feelings, especially the last month at work. I so appreciated not feeling like the only one. Hope things improve for you x

[@roxellamels1762]

34:43 I can relate to this point so much! It’s a struggle navigating business and balancing enjoying the moment too! I’m glad you were comfortable sharing this because being an entrepreneur definitely has its downside. Keep going Grace

[@sophiepeter225]

loved this vlog!!! I am 3 months into my business and it is absolutely flying. I feel that cry about not working on a weekend and failing to pushing through to my core. Tysm for making me feel sane

[@lorenss124]

book 'The Art of Self-Love' by Sabrina Windale can change your life. Habit must be not outcome based but rather identity based. Stay blessed.

[@vivianwoltman8416]

Thank you so so so much for sharing every side of entrepreneurship and being open about how overwhelmed you can get wanting to prioritize your team, making your businesses thrive etc. It’s def not easy and even though it can feel “so stupid”, I totally get you just want to go for a walk in the morning. 😂🥹 You’re such an inspiration to so many women - especially because you are so vulnerable and honest. Sending you lots of love 💕

[@bettymaguireuk]

Grace I absolutely loved the whole vlog but also can I just say thank you for showing your bare/ natural skin. Such a simple act has a huge impact.

[@Rachael2d]

Ilysm Grace! I enjoyed this so much. You’re doing such amazing things and I adore that I can still see the same Grace from the uni vlogs as well 🫶🏻

[@gemmaohagan7518]

I’ve been so excited for this vlog!!

[@Grace-Beverley]

thank yewww it’s been a long time coming

[@arsedakelo7619]

Grace you are phenomenal!! What a great, real vlog. You are so genuine and funny. Please more vlogs🤍🤍🤍 and bring the uni vlogs backkk

[@christinanwabugo9591]

yes! just normal vlog, nothing over intellectual, just vibes.

[@camilacabreraarias7049]

You are simply amazing and I know being a Girlboss is a lonely and tiring path but remember that you’ll have those calm moments too Such an inspiration, thank you 💙

[@juliao.5089]

Love this vlog! one of the most enjoyable vlogs I’ve ever seen, minus your stress obviously. But seriously you are so inspirational and real.

[@WillyKathy21]

I’d love to be able to watch your old vlogs. Never seen them but would fond it really useful to see how you started everything ❤

[@marly_lt]

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 ❤

[@elleofellemanagement526]

33:00❤love your vulnerability! It’s real life blessings and curse of a true entrepreneur! As I watch this clip thinking in my head 💭I’ll take a “mental saturation break” from work and watch Grace, then go for a run, but I have so much work to do and I’m crazy insane to take a break because it’ll be Monday in 5 minutes😢😂😂 I’m so glad it’s not just ME❤

[@elisekerr_]

Loved loved loved this and completely relate to the burnout of wanting to do it all. Thank you for keeping it in the vlog, definitely helps everyone to know you go through the same shit as us ♥️ can’t wait for the next one

[@vn2.9]

you inspire, girl! so amazing! i am a new fan of your channel and insta, you are amazing! sending love and support! keep on shinning, boss babe❤️ also, these weekly vlogs are everything!

[@celinaschreiner584]

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 😊 X

[@hannahwood3080]

I would love for you to share your tips and tricks for when travelling with work and adapting to different environments and not having your usual routine. 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

[@RomyDandelion]

Thaaank you for taking us along ❤️ absolutely love your vlogs!

[@she_goes_simply]

“I’m just obsessed with Gilmore Girls at the moment…” … GOES TO HARVARD !!! You don’t say lol Loving the return of the vlog!!!

[@mccurmj]

I felt 35:00 so hard because I have been here ❤ your body needed that breakdown. I say this because I have been here, find ways to delegate so you can protect your peace and honor yourself. Loved this vlog so much!

[@lauralarosa.]

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).

[@philippaford4693]

Missed vlogs from you! So happy you made one, so worth the wait 😊

Babe I was struggling with mild adult acne (I know I shouldn't complain) but some flare ups were so frustrating... I tried a LOT of things, but nothing really helped until I found a new facialist who did acid peels (don't know the details) on a two weekly basis and my skin has never been better!
