Your initial problem reminds me of that meme where the man is digging and he quits right before he reaches the diamond that was literally inches on the other side of the tunnel. Your channel is awesome and I wish you much success. don't stop till you get that diamond! ✊

[@pridechronicles]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@UrUrbanRockstar]

About time someone was honest and didn't sugar coat that failing and struggling is part of life. People love to act as if they have it all together but it is OK not to be OK sometimes. You have to be honest with yourself before you can progress. Thanks for the transparency. Now let me get back to the last edits of writing my first novel and losing these 20lbs lol. I needed this.

[@nsrobinhood5300]

What you said about loyalty was so on point. Why keep people in your circle if they drain you, put you second, tear you down, can't level with your greatness? I recently cut out some toxic people from my life and i am so much happier. Love how real you are in this vid.

[@shanboody]

HEY ahh I am loving my supportive community of luvas more than ever today, will try to respond to every comment. ALSO I put up a poll (click the "i" in the corner to take it) where you can answer the following: where do you feel you are in life? What role does loyalty play in your life currently? What is your next step?

[@lisamarie4048]

+Shan BOODY I just took the mini survey and was surprised to find that "loyalty" has held me back... I guess i was investing time and effort into so called friends and family who were really just using me and wasting my time.It's interesting, the idea of loyalty. we all really do need to be a bit "selfish" sometimes

[@itsmeLori]

I don't think loyalty is the problem, I think it's unreciprocated loyalty. People get defensive, and she should have realized that to earn YOUR loyalty, she had to show some loyalty herself. And that includes either helping you, or recognizing that she wasn't the best person to be in your corner. Recognizing one's own limits and wanting the best for the person they are working with, means being real with themselves and knowing when it's time let go. When they don't do that, it's probably because they entered the whole relationship for selfish reasons to begin with--whether for money or for gratitude, it was never really about what was best for you. Not to say it wasn't subconscious or unintentional, but your interests were not her priority. I know you're past that point now but I hope you don't feel even a little bit bad about how it ended with your friend. Good luck Shannon, you're great and you deserve every success!

[@princeaceradio7296]

[@cafepiel82]

Shannon thank you for this. I just started my online tee shirt line and this gave me the inspiration to go to the tree top and reach for the stars

[@lisbethpichardo7755]

Wow.. when you said “it is not my fault that you are fucked up” it reminded me of when i told my ex “i can’t keep hating and sacrificing myself to love you, when it will be enough for you? When would you have caused me enough hurt for you to see that I do need to walk away from you and deserve better than what you are giving me or capable of giving me” and that.. was so freeing. Liberating and empowering!

[@helloedlyn2139]

Your agent knew EXACTLY what you are capable of doing and becoming and she wanted to be your agent when you blew up to use you for her advantage. You did the right thing Shannon. Loyalty has not gotten me anywhere either and I need to realize that I need to move on to bigger and better things. I am too, in the same industry as you and it is hard but you have opened my eyes. Thank you xoxo. I am a big fan of yours and I wish you the absolute best and in your journey to success. But remember that just how you look up to all your friends who are more successful thank you, you have a ton of following who is looking up at you because you are already far more successful than us. Love you!

[@bykendrajo]

He is pleased in you and I just wanted to say "thank you".

[@jdoe3240]

It's so awesome you came to that epiphany about yourself and are doing something about it. Others will come to epiphanies, but will stay stagnant. They will do the same thing and get pissed when things don't go their way. I know this video will help so many people. Thank you so much for sharing this.

[@TurtlesOnAFence]

I have been watching you since your TGAW days and I have admired your honesty and truth ever since. This video has resonated with me in so many ways it's crazy. You've always been one of the hardest working people on my radar and the fact that you talk so openly about your struggles and what you are doing to overcome them and improve yourself is eye opening and uplifting. It has taken me a long ass time to feel comfortable in my skin and learn that I am more than I give myself credit for. I thank you for being someone who I can look to for inspiration in all sorts of ways. All the best and good luck with your Green card application and your future endeavours. ❤ a fellow Torontonian

I’m so proud of all you’ve done, you’re an inspiration and so classy. You know what’s crazy, downfalls give you blessings. I only even found out about you because of Lani’s comments on the real and now I’m a regular listener. Keep up the good work!

I took this video, very seriously and very personally. So many of the things you have said really showed me a reflection of who I am.. I have a lot of fixing to do.. A lot of goals to go after..that I am in the process of going after, but nothing is going MY WAY!!!! I need to change my ways, and invest more into myself, dreams, and desires if I feel as shitty as Ido... Shannon.. Thank you. I needed this.

[@leahkavanaugh6748]

this is exactly what I needed right now. I have been thinking about dropping out of college (for the second time) because at this point I feel like no one around me believes in me, and that's what they are expecting me to do anyway. But I know exactly what I want to do with my life and where I want to live and who I want to be, and to get there I need a degree and I will not listen to anymore negativity, or stop when I feel like I am not getting anywhere. So thank you. You are an amazing inspiration. Don't quit. You are brilliant.

[@MillionaireHoyOriginal]

Girl, I feel you on getting SOOOO CLOSE to being at the top of many things and hitting plateaus over and over again. I've tried MANY things [putting my heart and soul into them each time] but I would inevitably hit a plateau and eventually move on to the next thing. The great thing is that by giving my all each time, I've been collecting a wide range of skills and experiences and have been indirectly working on becoming my best self... so I guess there is a light at the end of the tunnel lol

[@halliejamison7127]

You are such an inspiration. As an 18 year old, I struggle all the time to follow through with the big dreams I have for myself. Thank you for reminding me that my fait is in my hands. Thank you for making me self empowered. Thank you for showing me how strong I am. Keep doing what you do!

In addition to this i also doubt myself quite a lot :( and it's slowly ruining me because it's gotten to the point where I'm always asking everyone else whether or not I should go forward with things or what/ how I should do things and from listening to this it really opened my eyes and hopefully I'll change this toxic habit :)

Hi Shan, you have inspired me with this video, I have at least a five pound of sack potatoes holding me back. The sad thing is; I'm 61 years of age, just graduated in Film Studies, and need that extra support. I have a dream to write this documentary about my family history which why I went back to school in the first place. With no one, I can collaborate with school at this moment. I feel lost, and this relationship isn't helping, but hearing this video has given me strength to put my foot down and give this person either you straighten up by September are I'm gone. I know this is a little personal, but I needed to get this out. You are a very smart and intelligent young lady that found your way out of the jungle on your own good for you.

this is going to sound patronizing and cliché, but I am a firm believer of experience as credentials. what I mean is that all of these things you are experiencing are setting you up to uplift others much better than anyone else because your experience will speak to them. everything you will ever say to anyone will hold so much weight because your experience gives you credentials that diplomas simply can't. I am so rooting for you Shannon, putting all my prayer tokens in you waiting for you to light up and slay! so glad you found your way back to you, and this breakthrough is sure to propel you.

I appreciated it so much I haven't stopped watching since. the points you made about surrounding yourself with 2 types of people...people who have the passion to believe in you (as well as answering the question, how much do I believe in myself)& people who have the tools to support you. And #2. That the two have to do more than just have good intentions. Had me in such a heavy/deep aha moment! Thank you for sharing!

Your video inspired me to continue and keep pushing myself to be the best that I can be.

[@janaeradack3865]

you are so inspiring. I love it. I skipped around and watched your videos out of order, but you really are an inspiration and i love your channel. You have opened up a board of conversation between me and friends and me and my husband. I'm somewhat of a prude i guess and never would talk about some of the things i should with my other half, and since i have subscribed to your channel, your video's are now a conversation starter. Now i can come to him and say "Shannon was talking about this today, and how this is fun or how most get this wrong or don't do this, what do you think?" and then we actually have an adult conversation about it, with out making fun of it, or without it being awkward. Which was never really a possibility before. And listening to this and a ton of your other videos, you should be very proud of how many you encourage daily. Not all subjects i understand or feel comfortable talking about but now i listen to them on you page and can appreciate the knowledge and art. You inspired me to look deeper into love and love making, you inspired me to be myself and confident with myself. Not that i was a wall flower or anything, just now i have more confidence in myself at the stage i'm at now. Instead of dwelling on what i don't have or what i do have (weight gain mostly) but listening to your videos about sexuality and being proud of what i have to offer with my body to my spouse, it really boost my confidence. I appreciate it. Sorry, i wasn't expecting this to be a long post. lol Your fan from MD. :-)

You're a God sent! Did you know that?! I was just literally saying how I'm going to quit something that's making me happy because I'm not getting the results I want then here you go with this video basically saying don't... man the impact ! Thank you... That's all I can say! THANK YOUU! 💞

[@gayepaul9371]

I found this video very interesting. My 17 year old son is a musician, his dream is to live in LA and make it in the industry. I sat him down and showed him this video, he has a much better idea of the real world and what to expect. I have always encouraged him to chase his dream, but a dream is nothing more than a dream if we don't plan and take action. Thank you for sharing your experience. We live in Melbourne Australia.

[@libwood5181]

I'm so happy that you created this video..like seriously I am going through the same exact thing! I have been having a hard time really growing as a lover, model, and overall human being cause I am always stopping or holding on too long to the wrong things in life and I KNOW it's no longer serving me for my greater good. I can't explain how much courage you just help me to keep moving. Thank you! 🌹

[@shahdbatal]

It's scary how much I see myself in you. Thank you for this, you're gonna do great thangs girl

[@a.emmadiallo5889]

[@thelaag]

**NEW SUBBIE ALERT** I just want to say thank you. Thank you for making this video because I needed this. I've been plateauing for the last 12 -15 years of my life because of the fear of failing and I'm over it. I want more for myself... my family and you just gave me that extra push. God bless you!

[@THEGAM3RK1NG]

You look even more flawless without make up Shan😍 wow just wow.

[@shanboody]

+THEGAM3RK1NG I feel responsible to keep it real with you guys although there is no makeup there still is 3 lights and one reflector underneath me + the video is brightened and color corrected - I don't walk abound all glowy with no bags like this lol

[@THEGAM3RK1NG]

+Shan BOODY doesn't matter tbh. Forever gonna be my YTer crush 😂😂 BTW this video was extremely enlightening. I appreciate your content and hope other do as well.

[@THEGAM3RK1NG]

+Shan BOODY time and time again you always remind me of why you're always one of my role models

[@elimo3901]

+THEGAM3RK1NG Agreed! The natural look is stunning on you Shannon, you don't need all those material things. Haha, you could even save money ;) I've actually noticed that I get more attention from guys when I don't wear makeup, and my hair is just doing it's own thing. A bit frustrating, compared to when I actually go out of my way to make myself look hot. On the other hand it's a good thing, the industry is so wrong.

[@Shauntrice1014]

I needed to hear this today. I've been slacking for the past few years on photography, but this year I said I would get back to my passion. Ever since I spoke that I would get back into it, I've been getting offer after offer for work. It's not enough to sustain me financially, so I do that in conjunction with my full time job. I can't work two jobs that I hate, so I decided to let my second job be my passion. Thanks again, Shannon! I'm learning to stop talking myself out of the things I deserve.

[@Devinss145]

you're going to have 1 million in the next year. ❤

[@podcast.beautyfromashes]

I believe that too

[@yana-perrault]

Thank you, Shan, for making this video. I'm in an almost EXACT same situation. I just left a really prestigious program for musical theatre (what I *thought was the dream, this was MY kind of contract that was binding me) and I had to fight through everyone's opinions of what was best for me + possibly the darkest phase my depression has ever been, and only today have I decided that if I'm going to leave the thing that's not helping me grow, I have to DO the thing I've always wanted to do. This video and a combination of others I've watched tonight really has me pumped to just go out there and pursue my desires wholeheartedly. But I just need you to know that someone like me is SO THANKFUL for someone like you and the fact that you listened to that itch that told you to make this video. I cannot thank you enough for helping me see I am not alone. xo

[@IbelongtoMUSE12]

I'm going to be a midwife. I've been studying a different degree that I fell back on because I was too scared to study something that would be difficult. I'm really terrified to change degrees. I feel like I'm running out of time. But you're right I've got to do it. I want to care for other people I want to be there for the mothers and fathers and for the new babies. I want to start up my own program that accommodates and celebrates blended families and families that don't conform to the typical mum, dad, baby. Couples using surrogacy or donors I want to support them and have their experience not be shrouded in their difference but to celebrate the awesome thing they're doing. I'd also like to maybe one day work within teen pregnancy and sex education and to be an advocate for women having the rights to their bodies. Fuck yeah. I'm excited.

[@ILOVETOLOVEYA]

Wishing you ease on your journey.

[@happydinnertime2000]

This is a great lesson on relationships. It just reinforces all the decisions I have made to keep people in my circle who are helpful to my personal growth. Thank you for sharing what it takes to be successful. It's as if I feel permission to let go of all the 'ideas' we are supposed to live by.

[@cellyjordan2138]

Wow Shannon I respect you so much. Your are such a strong woman

[@ChivonJohn]

You are truly heaven sent Shannon. I resonated with this video on so many levels. Thank you for so much for creating and sharing this testimony and most of all for never giving up.

[@brokenandunimportant]

Thank you for making this video. I really needed to hear this.

[@reesaforrester4266]

Shannon let me say....girrrrlllll you spoke to me!!!! The raw emotion and authenticity! KZbin had this video in my suggestions for at least a week and I kept sliding past, maybe it was the title or my mood but for whatever reason today was the day. I only saw you in Amber's videos at first, then I started paying attention...the truth about my love life is where I really said yesss! You see this video, everything you said is the truth! I feel you here. Sorry for the long comment but you just gained a subscriber and I will be on this path too, to push past the plateau. You will get everything you are working on... I can already tell. Reach for those stars sister.

[@Kadieloo1229]

Please keep going. its so inspiring for me.

[@shewitmikael8777]

I appreciate that you truly open up about your life, especially talking about an industry that seems impenetrable and secretive. Thank you. Your new found motivation will lead you to your path gurl!

[@ZoleeGriggs]

I needed this. Thank you.

[@SadeWatkins]

[@LuV2SkRaTcH]

Hey Shannon, started watching your videos from Ask The Feels with the Just Kidding Films crew! I loved the fact that you brought the educated aspect along with the entertaining aspect they have. Have you talked to them about collaborating with them more? Maybe not just ask the feels (which is in hiatus for now) but JKNews or anything else? Also, could the hiatus on Ask The Feels have anything to do with waiting for you to be able to be a guest on the show?

[@LuV2SkRaTcH]

+LuV2SkRaTcH well... i feel like an idiot now. haha! after posting this, i ended up watching a few of the videos you're in on JKNews. hahaha! is there any momentum getting Ask The Feels out of hiatus?

[@fearlessnita6127]

This was so awesome. So authentic and real. I'm currently in the same place and moving myself back up that hill. Continue to share your story and inspire those around you. You've definitely encouraged me to get back at it with my YT channel. Thanks!

[@itsdjgifted]

Please be my mentor Shannon ❤️

[@thegirljesslove]

I SO wish she could be mine ☹️

[@tasheone5353]

[@Ijstwannadnc]

Shannon your vulnerability is so inspirational and timely I'm so grateful for you. And you can do it!!! You're amazing and you've got this!
