[VLOG] Week in My Life in NYC: Christmas Tree, Apartment Decor, Self-Care, Workouts & Friend Dates!

[@Elenatravels]

you are doing so great, no one talks about how hard the holidays can be for so many. family dis functions, challenges in life, grief of loved ones. I think we need normalize that too around all holidays. holidays can be very triggering for many. big hugs so happy you are doing better. Proud of you and your commitment to a healthy life. 💕

For myself, I appreciate your openness and realness. I think most of us appreciate authenticity over fake cheerfulness. You will get through this and be stronger and wiser. Merry Christmas, Shayla. Have a wonderful time with your Mama.

You know, as someone who has kind of always dreaded Christmastime (childhood trauma, and also losing a cat unexpectedly this time of year 10 years ago) it’s been refreshing seeing the realness of someone else who (although maybe only temporarily) is experiencing the same kinds of feelings. Hope you have a peaceful holiday, and just know that penny is looking down on you always 😊

Wishing you and Bali a merry Christmas!! Love your vlogs, they are so comforting to watch. Also just ordered your journal! I can’t wait to get aligned in 2025

I had to write this to you. I am so sad you’re not doing vlogmas this year. However I totally understand. I have currently been watching last years to stay festive. Keep on shining. Wishing you the happiest of holidays and the best new year ever. 2025 is gonna be all our year! ❤

Hey girl!! So happy to see mom on your next vlog ! And I actually like that you are being yourself around this time of the year . Sometimes being all festive and following the trend is just not the vibe. So thank you for showing up as your authentic self ❤❤❤

You got me into Fredda McFadden. I’ve read 12 of her books this year. Good choice the Locked Door is great! Happy holidays to you and yours

[@lexilovejoy]

Merry Christmas, Shayla! I've missed your longer vlogs. This was so nice. I just want to say.. I see your strength. Breakups and ups and downs in life are hard. I feel like you navigate them with such grace. Also, having a great support system is essential. I love you, I glad you are getting time to spend with your momma! Enjoy! 😍💕💕💕💕

I’m not really feeling the holidays this year either for some reason. Really enjoy seeing your routine and self care practices. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@teenz29683]

Do you have an updated makeup routine Shayla? What’s on your lips? 😍

[@alyshafradette8125]

Coffee IS the best I get it 😍

[@rachal900]

Have a Merry Christmas 🎄. I'm the same with my pancakes. I should try making thin pancakes strips. Wonder if that will work. ❤

[@rachal900]

P.s. you do you. No holiday content needed I just like watching your weekly vlogs whatever you choose to share and create

[@kimbelford9932]

My tree in Florida was $190 and i was in shock. However I did get a 9 ft from a reputable tree farm. The only one where my tree lasts for 8 weeks without browning
