I admire ( envy) your ambition and determination to get back to something you once enjoyed and most of all something that is for YOU! Listening to you talking about your experience in high school with dance and the judgment you felt is not only relatable but to hear where you are at now mentally and not giving a damn is so encouraging and admirable. Love that you are doing this 💕

Hi Grace! I love that you are doing ballet. I also started doing ballet again in January of this year after almost 15 years of not doing ballet. I decided to go for it as a form of doing something for myself, that made me feel like me again, that challenged me and that got my body moving. It has been so good for my mental health and my body. After starting working as an attorney last year, mixed with chronic health issues, my mental health got really bad and thought I was not going to practice the law after all that hard work. Had to realize that I was forcing myself to like areas of the law I am not passionate about, and that I am an overachiever, perfectionist that needs to relax and rest more. When I started working in areas that were more suited for me (corporate attorney, with no litigation involved) everything started to get better and with starting ballet I have felt I am doing stuff for me, that I simply enjoy again. Also, in my jurisdiction pro bono work is mandatory or you can be assigned a criminal case, and since I don't want to be assigned a criminal case, I am currently researching pro bono things I can do in my country. I have also considered an LLM, specially in intellectual property or tax law because I love studying, but decided to go through the learn as I go route since I don't want more debt and already have 3 professions. Will see what happens. I want to thank you for your transparency, for always being you, for sharing so much of your journey, and accompanying many of us through our law school journey, and now what comes after.

Loved the car chat! I took ballet for years growing up, but honestly still feel really traumatized by it at 28. I remember my dance teacher telling me I had no rhythm. I hope I can get to a place like you being confident and not caring what others think!!

@selinaleewright5730 5 месяцев назад

Grace-look at you getting back in the groove! I have enjoyed watching you grow as a mother and wife. Now you are getting back to yourself! You look great and it comes through the screen ! You are delightful

@ANM5437 5 месяцев назад

You freaking kill me. Hilarious. I was actually laughing out loud multiple times and my 3yo kept asking what’s so funny.

@CurlyDal 5 месяцев назад

I think you would benefit from starting your own law firm. You could start up a virtual law firm and take as many or as little clients as you want.

@MarissaMcNeace 5 месяцев назад

Loved this vlog!!! The car chat about not caring about what others think was something I needed to hear today. Thank you for that ❤

Did anyone else witness the adorable ms.peach fall off the bed when trying to cozy up into a hoodie? 😂

@accountforwastingtime 5 месяцев назад

I did adult ballet awhile back ~30yr old it was the BEST!!! I did dance as a kid/teen too and was not that great of it, was also very aware in class I was not that great. You're so right about how it gets so different as you get older. You don't have the patience anymore to care what other people think, you know it literally doesn't matter. Adult ballet is so different! I've learned the best technique in those classes. And if you did ballet when you were younger it is SO different adjusting with your adult body lol Also your parking lot commentary was good😂(and it is SO awkward showing up and just hoping the class is "real" and on!)

@bethanyjoyyokeke 5 месяцев назад

Kudos for you getting back into ballet!!! Yay!!! 👏🏽👏🏽

@brendathompson4939 5 месяцев назад

I'm so thankful that you shared your experience approaching the ballet! The fear, the determination, questioning dress/ability...this is EXACTLY what I go through sometimes approaching a new idea. I needed to hear and see that I'm not the only one who has apprehensive feelings!! You are SOOOO relatable! Thanks for not faking it!

@mariap9826 5 месяцев назад

Your ballet outfit was sooo cute, Grace!! Thanks for the car pep talk. I care way too much about what people think of me 😂

@princesaerie1977 5 месяцев назад

Yesss 46 min vlog 😍😍

@danielag7092 5 месяцев назад

I did the same thing with soccer!!! Last year I started working as a first year associate and decided I would get back to it since HS/college. I remember in HS the girls on my team would be so mean and in college it was cliquey as well. I joined a random league in Brooklyn and a women's league on LI and I decided I DONT CARE and I'm just going to do my best and play for fun. I wish I felt that way in HS, I probably would have been a stronger player

Hey Grace, I'm going through a similar journey to Jesse, and have been trying the candida diet which has helped quite a bit with my symptoms, I also take refrigerated probiotics each day. It sounds like the SIBO diet is quite similar. It's wild how so many people are experiencing the same thing, but no one seems to know what is causing it...I'm also so happy that you are taking time for yourself! x

@kirstenwood8192 5 месяцев назад

Great blog! Also, loving the more frequent/longer videos.

@leanneeggenberger9127 5 месяцев назад

That is so freaking cool that you started ballet! God I remember those type of girls in high school 🙄.. love this! 🙌💜

@paris13sanders 5 месяцев назад

Grace!! I always recently got back into ballet, thanks tik tok 🤣 but honestly, I totally feel the hobby struggle. Kudos to us for putting ourselves out there. I was so nervous going back lol

@paris13sanders 5 месяцев назад

Omgggg yes idgafffff once I got in that studio I was like I don’t remember half of these moves but at least I’m here. Also, not the body comment 🥲 I couldn’t even put a leotard on but you’ve inspired me!!

@jodianne4619 5 месяцев назад

I’m starting adult horseback riding lessons tomorrow! I also feel like I need a hobby so we will see how it goes! Aha Glad to see ballet went well for you! :)

@LipsticksandLattes 5 месяцев назад

Awesome! I also wanted to try that :)

@kaseyb4721 5 месяцев назад

I went back to work after my maternity leave on Thursday. My baby will be 5 months next week. I am NOT ready… something like this seems like it would be way more manageable than just BOOM I’m an attorney again.

I love the ballet content !

@latinbeautymaria 5 месяцев назад

I loved this vlog so much!!

@madtay26 5 месяцев назад

I’m a legal research attorney for my state’s judicial branch and it’s awesome. Part time and I can be fully remote too! Not sure if that’s in the same realm as the research you were looking to do but it’s been great and super flexible!

@kcmusings 5 месяцев назад

This makes me want to get back into ballet after like a decade. I don't think I could handle looking at myself in the mirror 😢

@selinaleewright5730 5 месяцев назад

Oh I forgot my number one question is not when are you going back to work rather what is the color of your nails? Looks like ballet slippers from Essie but not sure

@LipsticksandLattes 5 месяцев назад

Let’s be friends OPI! 🫶🏻

@TheMaggiesDad 5 месяцев назад

Does the website provide access to an online law library for research? I think I'm one of the ones who asked if you were going back to work. LOL But honestly, I think you're doing the right thing taking care of your kid. It's not financially possible for everyone but if you can do it you should. i started following you when you started law school and I was prepping for the LSATs you really were a great source of what law school was going to like.

@artsygirlmarilyn6296 5 месяцев назад

❤❤wow you look fantastic in black ballet clothes. I feel like you are so happy now and your old self. Glowing and wearing makeup 💄 and beautiful. Black pants rather than grey would accentuate your figure as you dance 💃🏽 your way into life. 💃🎶🎶🎶🎶💃🎶 ballet 🩰 🩰🩰🩰1000 calories is brilliant too 🧠💋🌊💄😂😂😂

@becca3357 5 месяцев назад

I’ve been wanting to go back to ballet too but I’m starting law school in the fall. Do you think you’d have been able to dance casually while in law school?

@mariacampbell3899 5 месяцев назад

You definitely could. I danced once a week while I was in law school. It was super helpful to my mental health! I say do it! Hold on to something that you enjoy ❤️

@LipsticksandLattes 5 месяцев назад

Definitely!

O and get quinoa flakes! Much better than using whole quinoa for “oatmeals” it cooks like instant oats in the microwave 🎉

Hi! So, do you not drink coffee every morning, now? That use to be your thing during your law school vlogs. And you have a TODDLER! In general, I love Ballet, great job in picking it up! :)
