my last days as a tv news reporter

[@derpylovecosplay]

It’s just like they always say “as one door closes, another one opens.” So proud of everything that you’ve done and I know you will find your next calling very soon!

[@ClancyBurkeX]

Aww thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@jpann26]

I don't know how you didn't choke up when that veteran was speaking and the tears rolled down his face. Very inspiring! I look forward to see what else you're going to achieve!!

[@ClancyBurkeX]

I thought I was going to. He is amazing. Thank you!! ❤️

[@Lili_LaRae]

You seem soooo happy and content with this change! Usually you are so anxious and second guessing yourself. Its so cool to see this side of you♡ I can't wait for the videos to come! ✌️ much love!

[@ClancyBurkeX]

Aww that’s so true! Thank you!! I really do feel so much happier! :)

[@kgreene460]

The 3 pillars of health are: diet, exercise and SLEEP! They all work together, without one the benefit of the others decline. You did the right thing, Clancy!!

[@ClancyBurkeX]

SO TRUE!!! Thank you! 💞

[@ashleycanas2080]

When my baby didn’t slept for over a year, I didn’t either and I got so depressed

[@lindseybaltich7180]

I feel like this was the first vlog where Clancy didn't feel she had to be immediately on performance mode. It's so good to see her more at ease ❤️

[@4328898]

You already seem like a weight has been lifted. Genuinely so happy for you and Zac too. Someone put a mean comment on your last video about Zac not seeming excited about travelling, but I can 100% tell that he's super excited in his own way to embark on this new adventure with you and spend more time together! My bf is the same. It could literally be the happiest day of his life and if I ask if he's happy/excited he's like "sure?" 🤣 that's just men!

[@ClancyBurkeX]

HAHA omg I’m so glad someone else understands 😂😂 he just doesn’t express himself the same way as my upbeat, energizer bunny-type personality 😂💞

[@Brandratalks77]

Congrats!!!! As someone deep in their 40’s I can tell you that you really have the rest of your life to work hard and have a family. This is the time to go out and enjoy your time with your fiancé and live it up!! Great decision on your part. I’m so happy for you!!!!!

[@ClancyBurkeX]

Aww thank you!!! That makes me really happy to hear 🥰

[@bratalie9227]

Well said!♥️

[@iyaabdo7524]

I always thought that it would be so miserable and depressing to live your schedule but I thought you were just a different breed and could handle it. I’m genuinely so happy for you!

[@ClancyBurkeX]

Thank you so much!! Honestly, it was rough haha

[@aidasa3791]

Her work ethic is unmatched!

[@AraceliTV]

As a news reporter and anchor that left the industry I can totally relate. It’s just part of your identity. Some how it makes me feel better to say “former news reporter” than to pretend it never existed. Even though it’s been years!

[@sunfairy_19]

Not ashamed to say I shed some tears while watching this! I’ve been watching your videos since November 2019, and you’ve grown and accomplished so much since then. I’m excited for Saturday’s video and all the ones after that as you navigate life outside of TV news reporting! Welcome to your new chapter, Clancy!! ☺️💛

[@ClancyBurkeX]

Aww thank you so much for all of the support!! It seriously means the world to me ❤️❤️❤️

[@BreaMichelle3]

My family member who is a veteran made a good point- if you see someone wearing a shirt, hat, pin, etc that says “veteran” they will most likely very much appreciate you thanking them for their service. I think you did an amazing job interviewing that veteran Clancy. I was tearing up. You were very empathetic and asked the right questions in a situation that is not easy to be in.

[@ClancyBurkeX]

Thank you!! ❤️❤️

[@NickzAndMikz]

Good call. I’ve never thought of that

[@thexxit]

You speaking to those veterans got me. I know we're so thankful for their service, but the mental and emotional aspect of seeing war and combat like you said does different things to different people. Seeing that veteran's tears was just such an honest reflection of the experience there, the friends, the loss... all of it. I teared up, too! Also, amazing book. I'll have to look for it.

[@debbie7771]

You should be so proud. Someone with your work ethic, skills and discipline will always be ok. Just knowing that you should feel free to do whatever you want. I’m 43 now and used to work an overnight shift in my 20s. It was a sad time and all I remember is how stressed I was trying to hang out with my friends and be “normal”. Lol. Now I work for myself and do what I want. So much better. Congratulations! 🎊🍾🎉

[@amyfentress4257]

You did it! You finished strong & didn’t leave them hanging. So happy that you & Zack will be having new adventures together!!!!!!

[@kristenweaver3146]

GIRL! As a fellow tv reporter I feel you on the bittersweet thought of leaving-- but you are GLOWING!! I cannot wait to continue watching you shine with a little more sleep :)

[@breannasimmons868]

I can’t wait to see the packing/traveling vlogs!! Congratulations. I can’t wait to see your next adventures.

[@ClancyBurkeX]

Thank you!! I’m excited to film them!! 🥰

[@lelekv4042]

Man ...Clancy I really hope you never regret this! I truly believe you did the very best thing for yourself and the ones who love you. I'm originally from Columbus Ohio and this was back in mid 2000s but there was this morning news reporter that I seriously adored and felt like my mornings wouldn't be the same without her...she got sick and got cancer and almost died. I've watched you before you moved to Ohio but after you got the jobs there it made me think of her...and then when you kept having random health problems due to your schedule...it made me think of her again. I really hope you look back knowing the time people spent with you during their mornings probably lit up more than one life, but I also hope you know that however fondly you remember your time there, that you never regret it and remember that your life is not worth a job...not even a dream job. I'm excited for your new adventures 🤗

[@meaganmccullah8882]

You should be proud of yourself! I have no idea how you have done so much. I couldn’t do it. You did and this is now your time!!! Also, it’s okay to be scared to close this chapter. You’ve never made a leap like this and that’s scary. It’s going to be amazing!!! And if it’s not? That’s okay. You can always go back to know you know ♥️

[@ClancyBurkeX]

Aww!! This is the sweetest comment ever. Thank you so much, Meagan!! ❤️

[@haleya4236]

It’s never lame to feel or say you’re proud of yourself!! I’ve recently learned this & it’s definitely weird to say but it feels so good to remind yourself “hey you did a good job!” You seem super happy about this new chapter & we can’t wait to see what you find out there on your travels.

[@ClancyBurkeX]

SO TRUE!! Thank you for the reminder! 💞💞

[@cathy.peterson9756]

Congratulations Clancy! My husband and I decided to cut loose and travel when the last of 7 children went off to college. We bought an rv and traveled for 4 years until my husband’s parents began to experience serious health issues and required attention. We traveled the country and it was absolutely amazing! You’re going to love this journey ❤️

[@ClancyBurkeX]

Wow, that’s amazing and so inspiring! Thank you!

[@livingnlalaland]

I’ve been watching since first day at Dayton. Clancy is the reason I continued to the journalism path. This is so emotional but I am also soooooo happy for you! 🤍

[@rachelgrant2401]

I worked in radio for a few years after college and I remember when I left my job at the station I worked at I experienced a lot of similar emotions to what you were feeling in this vlog. It’s so bittersweet! Congrats to you though, I’ve so enjoyed watching your reporter content and can’t wait to see what is to come. You’re one of my all time favorite youtubers! 😊🥳

This is really bittersweet but I'm so happy for you girl and completely understand!! I wish you nothing but love and happiness for your future! 💜

[@ApartmentKing66]

With your beauty, Clancy, and the way you handle yourself on camera, I don't see a news director anywhere who wouldn't want to treat his station's viewers to seeing you on a daily basis, if possible. In fact, I'm gonna go out on a limb here, but unless you decide you don't want to, I see a network gig in your future. At least major market work (NYC, Chicago, LA, Bay Area, Philly, Boston).

[@tatianasouza2361]

I feel you deeply when you say that you are good at faking how you feel because us, humans, are so good at making our outside look amazing even when our inside is almost dead. God bless you on your new adventure. 🙌❤️🥰

[@imElainee]

Aaaaa, Clancy this is so big. I remember when you would do your student reporting at Marist, whether it was stopping students on campus to get their takes on things or “in the studio” at the desk. Wow. Amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@cottonpickinshoppe6920]

Oh my goodnesss, tears galore, my dad and my family are all veterans and still in military. I wish my dad would tell his testimony.

I'm happy for you that you will hopefully be able to have a normal sleep schedule in the future. It's so much healthier to get 7 to 8 hours of sleep and not waking up at 2am. I've never heard of the book Chico's Promise. I find stories about dogs saving their humans so heartwarming. Sounds like it will be a great read! I'm going to put that on my reading list for the future. Your news cast crew seem so cool! That was so sweet that they said you are their family.
