[@Flowerchyld222]

This is possibly my fav video you’ve uploaded. Listening to your thoughts & how you’ve processed postpartum realities is endearing bc it’s extremely relatable. You are the only KZbinr I’ve stuck around for in the last 10 years. Your makeup artistry, chats and creativity magnetize me to your channel; never change. Thanks for being you. You’re evolving into the best version of yourself & I’m happy to see it.

[@sharaey3552]

I've been following makeup videos since early 2013 and can confirm that you are the only artist who doesn't use filters in your videos which makes it easier for the viewers to get a realistic idea of the performance of products. Thank you for keeping that integrity of authenticity ❤️

[@maryelizabeth2096]

Shan i resonated so much with you through this whole entire video. This made me feel so much less alone. First of all my 13 year old dog is progressively getting sicker and and its so hard to deal with especially when the sickness is out of your control. Zues might have a food allergy. Id try feeding him a grain free diet for a while and that should help with his allergies and weight. Also i was THE healthiest version of myself in this past year (walking 3 miles every single day, eating super healthy, not consuming alcohol, ect) and yet i weigh the most i ever have in my life. It is so frustrating. You are not alone girl. Thank you for sharing these types of videos. It literally brought me to tears. Love to you and your family

[@Noora_Spruce]

I feel you! I ate super healthy, limited my amounts so i wont eat out of boredom, went on walks etc my weight didnt do anything. I started to eat more and went on 2 walks a day not even long ones and started to lose weight. Also cutting out all sugars help too. Also grain is the worst enemy for weight loss

[@thecreightonfamily]

Oh my goodness I needed this, I’ve been feeling so lost lately.. not sure why I’m just lost but there’s something about watching your videos that help so much ❤

[@tonidavie3635]

I think that keeping your head above water and caring for your family is enough

[@Noora_Spruce]

Im dealing with anxiety for the last 2 weeks and this is my safe/calm place. this is a drama free place Shannon makes me feel safe and calm. Thank you Shannon for creating a safe place to unwind.I made a Shaaanxo playlist to watch before bed and throughout the day. Also Shannon is very real and seems like a sweet girl. Love you lots!

[@boogiebear3095]

Wishing you the best. My panic disorder hasn’t been kind to me. Shan is great and helps keep you focused on something else.

[@NatashaDawn82]

I completely understand! I have anxiety as well and Shannons content is so calming and comforting. I feel relaxed watching her videos.

[@Paper_Ghosty]

I think this is the first year in a long time where I actually have goals that I want to accomplish! Not necessarily resolutions but actual long term goals that I’m very excited about. I hope 2025 is good to you and your family Shan ☺️💕

[@Jessica-rz1fo]

I have been in a deep depression for a while now and tried to act like I was fine but you have made me feel so much better don’t ever doubt your feelings and what you are going through thank you for this video

[@Ginmabes]

This was lovely to watch, Shan, thank you for this beautiful honesty. You're such a warm and genuine soul x

[@ashleyc2525]

Re: Zeus, it’s probably the food. Dogs can develop allergies at any time. I have bulldogs and they are allergic to everything so I did allergy testing for my male Olde English Bulldog. The company is called 5 Strands and every vet, breeder, owner, etc says those aren’t accurate and while I agree to an extent they give you a baseline to start with. I thought my dog might be allergic to grass and the test came back that he was, same thing for common grains. It also said he was allergic to kangaroo meat so there’s that and it kind of made me wonder how reliable the test is! 😂 I made the switch to grain free based on that test anyway and that seems to have done the trick. His armpits and belly no longer have rashes and bumps and his paws are healed. You know how humans can get celiacs or a gluten sensitivity later in life? I think it’s the same deal for dogs. You should definitely give the test a try though, you just send in their fur so it’s super easy. I’m in the US and just checked the website to see if they ship internationally but didn’t find anything so I don’t know for sure but you can email them. The website is just www.5strands.com Hopefully he gets better soon! ❤

[@sorina1306]

Hey Shan, I just wanted to say that I really resonate with you. I've been feeling a bit lost lately, and hearing that you're going through something similar helps a lot. Thank you for being so vulnerable with us!

[@jessleigh4622]

This was definitely NOT boring!! I really enjoy just listening to you talk while I get ready in the morning. Don’t change!

[@charleepenna6984]

I loved how real and raw you were in this video! With the world in the climate it is currently, I think we all just need to be honest and raw and treat each other with kindness and love. ❤️❤️

[@crystalgreiser]

I can totally relate to what you said. You are so good at putting how you're feeling into words and I usually feel the exact same way. It definitely helps to know I'm not alone in how I feel. Thank you!

[@jessicagaray2122]

I totally get this!! I’m a newish mom, my baby is 3. I feel like I’m barely starting to get to know myself again. For me it started with falling back in love with doing my makeup and feeling pretty. Like actually FEELING. Which is something I noticed I didn’t do (feel) anything. I was on fight/flight mode and now I calm myself by saying: ‘I can control this (present/within reach)/I can’t control that (future)’. I’m taking it slow; I can say there’s days I just feel so so so low and need to take time to myself and hype myself up again 😅 We have this one life, take it second by second quite literally 💖

[@wishangel3]

I relate so much to your personality, you value your downtime and that's okay. That's actually the main reason I don't want kids, even though everyone around me says I would love my child and of course I would...but I don't want that extra mental stress, and people don't realize how much mothers are responsible for so many things and all the weight that carries on their shoulders. So sorry to hear about your dogs condition, I'm praying for a quick recovery ❤

[@lilleeble]

aw i teared up with you when you shared that lovely moment with porter :' ) those sweet seconds of life that we get to cherish make all the struggles and grief so worth it

[@gns000]

I love your content! I love watching your journey I have been watching for over a decade. As a mum of 3 almost 4 you are the only youtuber that I will actually stop and watch your whole vid. It is completely normal to feel how you'ee feeling - a year of no sleep and relaxation so understandable. Its so hard to get out of the mum life funk but hang in there is completely gets better. Its only a short time and then blink and theyre big. This year it sounds like your new years resolution is to not put so much pressure on yourself. You are doing amazing. 🎉❤

[@gretaelsh3634]

So so glad you talked about this. I experience what you’re talking about every six months around new years and in June (birth month). It’s like a mini crisis/re-finding myself and goals and getting on track and it helps to approach your self talk and goals from a non-judgmental stance. ❤

[@tracycornett9967]

Motherhood is hard. We lose our identities all while building a new one. Therapy was not something I wanted but when you find the person for you it can be an amazing resource.

[@sum3855]

My gosh that was not boring in the slightest I just zoned into the tv listened to every word you said and so felt it! So relatable but my life is so different to yours yet the uncertainty on life and anxiety about everything is such a head f**k it’s so reassuring that others feel like that! I’ve always loved your videos ur a cool person compassionate and such an inspiration in so many ways Thank you! Legit helped me sort my own thoughts about shit in my own head in a way 😂 Thank you!

[@makeitup2112]

It's been a hard year just gone. I became a mother to a beautiful, wonderful little boy 7 months ago and as amazing as this journey has been I related so much to all the things you said about motherhood especially the newborn stage. It's been a really hard adjustment and I just feel so guilty all the time, feeling like I'm constantly letting everyone down and suffering motherhood burnout. Hearing you talk about your struggles and experiences helped me more than you know. You're an amazing person thank you for sharing Xoxo

[@chloeolivia3680]

A former vet nurse here! Please don’t feel bad, our doggos often develop allergies as they get older and their systems get more sensitive. And you’re 100% right, as they get older and less active keeping their weight healthy gets increasingly difficult. You may feel like you’re feeding him next to nothing to get him there, but his body is getting all it needs. Give my love to Zeus!

[@roxanaghanadian9228]

Love the honesty in this video ❤️ honestly resonated a lot! Would love more chit chat grwms like this or foundation first impressions for the new year xxx

[@emilylouise124]

I have been watching you for years, pretty much since you first started. You’ll always be my comfort creator, someone I can watch and forget about my worries. You’ve been there with me through heartbreak, mental health struggles and pain, but also through the happy moments. Just wanted to say thank you for that. I hope that you never forget how incredible you are

[@laurenklatman6918]

You resonate so much with me! You are a wonderful human! You are an amazing mom and content creator! We love you babes! Take care of you and yours! ♥️

[@georgiebrewin8563]

Happy New year to you and your family Shannon 🎉❤❤❤

[@lahserravite]

The way at the end you realised you understood your resolutions while talking is a very good indicative that you should do therapy. They could help you get your priorities in check and not overwhelm yourself with all that you want to do. Trust me I hated going to therapy at first bc I hated talking about myself to a stranger but it's actually good to have someone to vent and it being someone that can actually help you sort your stuff out. I'd say you should try it.

[@stephs5416]

Shan, i am so proud of you! i have been watching you for almost 10 years now and i just love the content you put out. You are so original, loveable, calming to watch and you keep it real. Keep posting what you do. Thank you for being there for me when i have nothing else to do, or when life gets hard and i need to distract myself from the horrible moments in my life. I appreciate you

[@Heidithune]

Being a mother is so overwhelming and it never stops, I worry constantly and now they are bigger now they are teenagers and it worries me just as much as when I became a mother to a newborn ❤

[@TaylahMadeComingSoon]

This video was real!! It's exactly what I needed, and everything you touched on was super relatable! For the longest time, I've hated the new year, absolutely despised it, yet I could never put my finger on exactly why that was. This video helped me realise that it's a combination of (unrealistic) social expectations, that looming fear of NEEDING to change something in my life in order to feel productive and that my time within that 12 months has been worth while. It's nice to know that others feel this way too and that it's okay to come into the new year with hesitation and without resolutions... it's okay if that doesn't work for you. You've put my mind at ease. You've made me reflect and realise a few things that will most definitely make a difference to my world and the way in which I view it. Thank you, Shan! ❤

[@steph_ad]

its so nice to be able to come here and watch your lovely videos after so many years. sending you all the love shan!!

[@BsmhGorgeous]

Yaaay soo happy see you upload!🤍🤍🤍 you are my favorite KZbinr ever, love you🤍

[@kagrakchmarakkagrakchmarak3877]

a while back, i hit a point where i felt like everything was out of my control. i kept wondering why other people seemed to get what they wanted while i was stuck in the same place. then i came across this book called Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane. i wasn’t expecting much, but the way it explains the connection between your energy and the life you create? it blew my mind. it’s not just a book, it’s like a blueprint for turning your life around.

[@julie5137]

Can you buy this in the UK?

[@emilypattison4996]

My favourite KZbinr & comfort channel ❤ thank you for always being so honest and just YOU Shan. Your new years chat I resonated with so so much. I’m so glad it’s not just me feeling the pressure 😅 xx

[@francescaagogo]

Shan, it gets better. ❤ Love how the look turned out! Excited for the purple packaging video. 💜

[@rebekahcarroll4445]

I actually really enjoyed this video, about you talking about all those things. Reminds me i’m not alone when people talk about how I or most of us can feel about a lot of different things.

[@newshabbirali353]

so there was this period in my life when i kept attracting the wrong people, wrong opportunities, everything just felt…off. i couldn’t figure out why it kept happening. then one day, a friend mentioned a book called Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, saying it helped them see the patterns they didn’t even realize they had. i decided to give it a read, and wow, it opened my eyes to how much my own energy was shaping my life. seriously, this book is something else.

[@melissamiew4056]

I completely understand. I try to give myself goals and hold myself accountable. Try to do more positive reinforcement and not be so hard on myself. No one knows what they are doing and this life is new to you. Live this life with all it's twists and turns. Smile more and slow down if you need to. Your needs count.

[@DeannaEGarcia]

I honestly feel the same I feel lost in life no New Year’s resolutions yet I hope this year is better than last year

[@RachelLaMotte]

Thank you for sharing your life with us, Shan 💖 I’ll be sending Zeus good energy! We love and appreciate you so much. Your videos and GRWMs are part of MY routine (for the last 10+ years hehe) ❤️❤️ Happy new year, keep being you!

[@kandirain_1172]

Everything u said is so relatable! I can’t address all of it but I feel u girl! U got this tho. U’re good about stopping and analyzing what u’re thinking (which I suck at) so u know what u need at a certain point. Be kind to yourself. U’re amazing ❤

[@Kayhxo]

Yay new video from Shan. Missed youuuuuu ❤❤

[@c4arla]

LOVE this more chill unplanned conversations and I too think my new years resolution needs to be to give myself more grace and maybe making my work more chill not pushing myself so badly. Also excited to see your best of 2024

[@laracossar5219]

Thank you for this vid ❤ I’m in such a weird stage in my life right and even tho we are both at very different stages in our lives, hearing how you are feeling, even if there is only a little bit I resonate with, it helps. Content wise i would love more gardening and house plant videos!!

[@tropicalladyj8033]

Dearest Shannon, I completely understand how you feel. Life is so challenging. I am the same way with touch, and I think what you said about being gentle with yourself is absolutely true and important. We all need to be kind to that person in the mirror ;) All my best to you, and I hope the upcoming year brings the best for you and your family. 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

[@saramarkwith2560]

Therapy is a must Shan!! Just do it!!!

[@Fauziia.a]

✨ you look so radiant

[@nssssss7667]

This video was perfection! More like this please! Hope you have a beautiful year! ❤

[@Dovahfinn95]

YES, I'm a skin-picker when I'm stressed too. It's horrible! You look beautiful. Try not to focus on it too much. When I feel the need to start picking, I ban myself from mirrors for a while. It helps.

[@sean.paki_]

I’m feeling it. Nearly back to work which is not ideal but maybe back to routine. Quick question: what’s your favourite eyeshadow palette that has heaps of colour? I have an old Morphe palette that needs to be replaced 😛

[@storminicole3991]

This video is not boring. Actually thank you for opening up. It helps a lot of people just to know they aren’t alone . And Remember that being a mom is being productive. You are literally shaping your child’s future and giving him the love and care he needs. If you have to step back a little from your job don’t think of it as not being productive. Also try better help for a therapist. You can do it through text and video calls etc.

[@Mrs.America2010]

I make my dogs meat, veggie and rice, equal parts. No problems so far. My vet said they need grains so I added a sprinkle of regular granual dog food on top. Minus the dog food I’ve eaten it too and it’s delicious. Easy to do.

[@wollielou]

I try not to set goals/NY resolutions in January because I don’t see the NY officially start until April. Remember, Winter is the time to rest & hibernate, even nature stops or goes slower in the colder months. Spring is when everything wakes up so why would humans be any different? Don’t be too hard on yourself about setting goals rn. Just rest and recoup and you feel better in Spring 🥰

[@ninavalocka7013]

Hey Shannon, I just want to tell you, that you are (were in that video) not alone. I'm struggling with anxiety especially durimg holidays, even though I freakin love Christmas. It's really weird, but the thing you were talking about was so relatable for me. I'm speaking for myself - I feel like I just need to accept who I am with everything, even with my flaws.. And stay positive, focus on good thing etc. 😊❣️ You are my "comforting" youtuber and the only one I'm following since idk maybe 2013 or whatever it feels like a century 😄

[@LakinRhianna]

Love videos like this - I appreciate how real you are! I definitely relate to feeling overwhelmed with new years resolutions because I hate when something doesn't turn out the way I plan! I find just doing little goals that I know I can do are good haha

[@ninam6206]

This was so enjoyable to watch and everything you said made sense, you truly are a lovely young lady xx

[@sunsongss]

Thanks for being down to earth and so relatable. Anixety and being lost is just my standard mood right now but I will know it will get better.

[@elysedunn6409]

I resonated with this so much. Thank you for being yourself and sharing - would much rather watch this than the edited highlights 😊 x

[@98TMT]

Keep continuing with your usual content, I still like that you do what you want to do 🤍

[@kayliecanda3033]

Hi Shan! I’m a veterinarian from the US and also have a pup with allergies. My pug got severe ear infections due to allergies to the point of needing surgery. He was on steroids multiple times for his ears and it does really help the itching! But allergies in general are super frustrating to treat, so I’m sorry you and him are going through that. I wouldn’t worry too much about it the weight gain- depends on how long the vet plans to keep him on the steroids of course. If he gets sore during walks the steroids could actually help, since they’re an anti-inflammatory. I don’t have any exact medical advice, since I haven’t examined him myself. It may not be a food allergy but it doesn’t hurt to try to eliminate that possibility. I recommend clients switch to a food with a different protein- chicken and beef are the two most common food allergies in the US, so usually recommend lamb, fish, duck, etc. but also like you said his weight is important. You could run the diet past your vet to see what they think!

[@laurenhuffman6449]

Loved this and needed this ❤

[@erdc97]

Been watching for probably 10+ years, love watching any of your videos!

[@suryansh8978]

i remember this one time i felt completely stuck, like no matter what i did, life just wasn’t moving forward. i tried everything-manifestation journals, vision boards, all that stuff-but it felt like i was missing something. then i stumbled across this book, Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, and it hit different. it wasn’t just about manifesting; it was about understanding the energy i was putting out into the world. honestly, it changed everything. if you’re feeling stuck too, you might want to check out this book.

[@meryyyeem]

You are speaking out of my soul ❤ I love you ❤️

[@satisfyinggift1013]

Shan, we love you and thank you for keeping real. Life is challenging and the holidays can be super tough with hosting family and friends! Hang in there and pace yourself; as you said 'give yourself grace' and continue being who you are ❤🙏🏽.

[@annaseifert4371]

Hi Shanon! I usually never wright in the comments but hearing about Zeus’s situation I really wanted to share my parents experience with their dog. Just disclaimer I’m absolutely not a veterinarian. So basically my parents got a rescue dog and she was not in the best condition physically. She had a very very similar situation to you dog. She had bumps all aver her body that than turned in to scabs and she was always itching everywhere. Than at one point she had really raw red skin under her armpits, in between her paws and on her belly. Their veterinarian suggested them the following (and it really really worked, she has no more problems): -she gave her a hypoallergenic kibble (from the brand Royal Canin) -applying zinc oxide paste on the raw red areas, it’s truly truly magical, she would almost immediately stopped scratching! It immediately calms down the area and after a few days of application it’s totally vanished (if applied 2 times a day). He will go around with some white spots because the paste is thick and very white but who cares right? The brand is Fissan -and finally some supplements with probiotics and other awesome things inside targeted for those dogs that have food allergies with a reaction on the skin (the brand is from eu it’s called Integropet and the product is called Digestive Probiotic, I’m not sure if they do worldwide shipping but maybe check and if not possible maybe just see the key ingredients to find something similar) And I also wanted to add that there are nowadays food allergies and intolerance’s test you can do on dogs, that really helps to narrow down the causes of the allergies/intolerances. I’m so sorry for the very long message but I truly wanted to share it with you. Wish you all the best ❤

[@reganocallaghan4955]

My toxic trait when anxious is add to cart when I really shouldn't lol.

[@CC-cv6gx]

I really love your series videos! All/any of them haha. I like seeing videos with the same theme but different ideas.

[@astrofortuneco1338]

girl the BLUSH…😮 made for you! what is that shade???

[@Minn7]

Shan! I’m a silent follower of yours. By that I mean I don’t comment/use KZbin for much other than watching your videos and for music. I am an OG from way before your Hellofresh videos, Im from way back of your clubbing get ready with me’s😂❤ I’ve watched you grow and your family grow! I loved watching you build a beautiful house and I’ve watched you become a mum. I found out I was pregnant 2 months after you, I loved watching your videos while you were pregnant, it was like a guide of what I was to expect during my pregnancy. I’m commenting this so you know you have support and don’t feel so alone. You are much stronger than you think and I agree this year you should take it easy and take more care of yourself ❤ 2.5 years later and I am also only just starting to shake postpartum! It’s tough 🫶🏼

[@meagantixier9446]

Youre doing great Shannon! Thank you for always being real and honest and open. Love you so much ❤ i would love to see more series videos from you. I loved the cocktails series and the gemstones as well. Maybe you could also do a few videos when you do 2 or 3 looks with 1 palette. Xoxo

[@AnnieLynn]

Keep up the videos and vlogs coming!

[@FallenHellcat]

As a mum of 3 I fully understand how you are feeling. Life has been kicking my butt lately and life has been stressful. As for goals I am also the same because something always comes up. But I also found it's because I kept putting everyone else first and not prioritizing myself. So this year I am going to start the work out when they are back at school and focus on my wants/need more. Money is a scary topic atm tho so 😅

[@ShelbyPhelps-f2d]

I agree with some of the other comments, he most likely has a food allergy. My dog used to have terrible ear infections almost every week (caused from her itching them) and once I stopped feeding her food that contained chicken they have gotten WAY better. Vets always jump to giving medication for allergies when it's not always environmental allergies but food allergies. I would try switching his food and see if that helps.

[@heidirivera5203]

It’s normal to feel the way you do. The important part is to remember you will always be a mother. You are still a woman though! Don’t forget about YOU. No it ain’t selfish. It’s healthy since we all see through our screens how you love your kid. We will get emotional. Hormones are no joke. There’s no need for resolutions IMO. (I understand some people enjoy having some -if you do,then do you! ❤) Work everyday on whatever it is you want to attack or TRY. & Love! I get it. If you have help with your child take advantage and go on dates take a day or 2 to be with your spouse OR ALONE? Whatever is going to help you have to try. Btw been here for a long time! Love ❤long content and chats. I would add more but I don’t want to overwhelm. 😂 Hopefully this resonates with someone.

[@sheenamarie8739]

Aw. My friends doodle had massive allergies over Christmas from a treat and she developed sores on her nose, loss of hair around her eyes and itchy paws. The vet in Canada said that some allergies last way longer in dogs when compared to humans. She's in a cone, and they are just giving her normal food she's always been on and cut out everything else. Hope he feels better soon!

[@shelley749]

Totally can relate! I have a 2.5 year old and a 5 month old. I love my kids but my son climbing all over me feels similar to nails on a chalk board sometimes! I only realise now I’m a mum how much I love my alone time and took it for granted previously! X

[@dvanopynen88]

My new year's resolutions are mainly involving reducing screen time and making time for hobbies and learning new skills. As a Mum of 4 Motherhood is overwhelming and the constant start-stopping and putting their needs before yours can be super draining, especially with toddlers/little ones. With Zeus I wonder if it's a yeast dermatitis, hope something works for him soon ❤

[@whitneylaurenjones]

I’m so sorry Zeus is struggling with allergies, I’m sending you, Hamish and Zeus so much love ❤ I’m struggling with feeling overwhelmed in the new year. In terms of new year goals my goal is to hit my 10 stone weight loss goal, I’ve struggled with my weight all my life but during lockdown I gained a lot of weight and I was so unhealthy and was struggling with the way I looked. 3 years ago I started a calorie deficit and exercise regularly and now I’ve lost over 8 stone and I feel so much healthier mentally and physically and I’ve gained a bit of confidence. I don’t really share my new year resolutions as I don’t want people to think they have to change just because it’s new year or set unrealistic goals and it can be triggering. I needed to change for my health which is why I prioritised that goal last year and will continue to prioritise this year ❤ It sounds like you smashed your goals for last year so well done. 🫶🏻Your videos always make me so happy and make me feel so relaxed. I struggle with thinking negativity sometimes so I’m sending you so much love ❤

[@lotx990]

Thank you so much for sharing this Shan! 🩷 you’re already doing so much, please don’t beat yourself up when stuff doesn’t go as planned sometimes. We can only control what we can! P.s. please create a baby pink lipstick for XO Beauty! 😍

[@kellieprestidge9346]

I enjoyed this so much!

We inherited my cat when he was 7 years old and he came with a plethora of health issues. He has a very severe case of irritable bowel disease, has had gall bladder infections, and was recently diagnosed as diabetic (he's 12 now). It has been a constant battle of finding medications that work for him, foods that he can tolerate, etc. It is so emotionally taxing because pets are our fur babies, and you just want to do everything in your power to help them feel better. I'm sorry you are struggling, and I hope Zeus gets better soon! Also - Dexter (our cat) has adjusted to insulin very well and is happy, full of energy and back to being his spicy self. :)

Hi Shan Happy New Year I always love ❤❤❤

[@samanthameyer8419]

I always joke that im like a cat. I want affection, but on my terms. My love language is not physical touch, and i dont hate the physical touch, but the holidays can be very overwhelming because theres so much socializing and touching and its just ALOT. There are so many people feeling off, myself included. Focus on you, your self care, and your family. I hope this year is more positive for everyone ❤❤ AS FAR AS CONTENT FOR 2025: always love the CCGRWM and I love the "xyz picks my makeup" type videos. We love you, Shan ❤

What you're describing sounds like postpartum anxiety. It can last way longer than people think. And it is normal to feel lost after having a baby and learning who you are as an individual after having kids. My son is the same age as yours and I'm struggling with the anxiety like you are and learning who I am again.

i remember this one night i was scrolling aimlessly, feeling like i had hit rock bottom. it felt like nothing i wanted was ever going to happen for me. i don’t know why, but i clicked on this link about the book Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, and something about it drew me in. the more i read, the more i felt like it was written just for me. it’s wild how much a single book can change your perspective.

Idk but I feel like chocolate brown brunette hair would absolutely slay with those eyes !!

Feeling the lost feeling definitely, ive been made redundant after being at the job for just six months. Hate being unemployed!! Im so sorry to hear about Zeus 😢 the best doggy

Our dog got allergies later in life too. The only medication that seems to work for him are cytopoint injections. They are pricey but he only seems to need one or two a year and he’s fine. He was so bad yo the point all his hair on one side of his body was falling out and he was constantly itching. He had been on the same food too his whole life. The vet told us it just happens sometimes as dogs get older and they get these allergies from their environment. If you haven’t tried the cytopoint I really recommend it! Good luck!! I get how you feel bad about it. I felt horrible too, but once we found something that works, I felt so much relief!

Hugs to you, our animal babies are our babies 💞 I'd definitely try changing his food and a probiotic could be worth a try. Sending all the healing vibes for Zeus ❤

Hiiii my beautiful Shan! 💕Happy new year! 🌟✨ You know, my doggi girl ​​had skin allergies too...nothing helped… until we changed her diet, to the BARF diet (raw / or half cooked meat or chicken + vegetables) and sardines! Apparently she is allergic to food coloring, and some additives in dog food😅! She is 10 years old now, and she has never been healthier! Sending you all my love from Venezuela! 🇻🇪💛💙❤️ and sending so much love and blessings to Zeus, he will be fine🙏! God bless you all!

[@kristinafarnam917]

You look stunning as always Shannon I just had to say that ❤

[@Nostalgiaandclouds]

I’m going through the same thing currently! I just moved and got a backyard, my dog has been scratching at his eyes, ears and mouth constantly. I understand the worry and the anxiety!

[@beverleysteele1106]

Shan all that anxiety is not normal or good for your mental health or physical health ,have you thought of a anti depressant for a break of anxiety xx pink and brown eyes beautiful
