    hello my angels ! today's video is a bit particular because I wanted to share with you some big mindset shifts I have had around letting go and releasing anxiety and control that have truly changed my life. I feel like especially as creatives we try to control as a way to feel a sense of being safe, when in reality we are keeping the magic of the universe out of the equation by sending the message that our ego can do it all on our own. Everytime I have ever attracted abundance or manifested something I was dreaming of, it was when I let go of attachment to a certain outcome and focused instead on feeling good and the process of getting there. Anyway, I hope you find my own personal story and experiences inspiring or motivational to your own journey. I know that we have been taught for so long that we need to hold on tightly and work hard or struggle to reach our goals, and now everyone is talking about lucky girl syndrome like it's a delusional self help idea, but truly in my experience anytime I have ever experienced abundance was when I was able to release and trust. anyway, thank you for watching! if you enjoyed you can subscribe for videos every Tuesday xx

    "when I was a little girl I used to spend hours looking for ladybugs. Finally, I'd just give up and fall asleep in the grass. When I woke up, they were crawling all over me." 🐞 (from under the tuscan sun). Happy birthday Shayna!!! ✨

    No TH-cam channel has ever brought me as much emotional healing as yours. This year, I gave up my fear of failure and finally created an Instagram account. It sounds silly, but I stopped myself from doing it FOR YEARS. I let my perfectionism paralyze me. Your channel helped me to let go. I create from a place of joy and it has been one of the best decisions I've ever made for myself. Thank you for reminding me that it's okay to choose me, and to put joy first ❤️

      Sam thank you so much for sharing. I feel so validated reading your comment. I’m hoping I will be like you next year and finally put myself out there. I’ve been so afraid to put my music on instagram and even post because of my fear of failure, perfectionism, shame. I’m hopeful I can get to the place where I let go and put joy first. It’s so nice to see I’m not alone- far from it. Sending you so much love. Thank you for validating me through your vulnerability. ❤️

    I had an affirmation come to me right before an intimidating interview with three senior producers from a big news org last week: "I am not attached to the outcome, I am PRESENT to the EXPERIENCE" --- it has low-key become my mantra in the last week!!
    I was more relaxed/honest during the interview than I'd usually be and it worked in my favor -- I got out of the interview and had an email offer for a *different* job that I thought I'd been passed over for. I ended up choosing that different job, and the news org told me they'd have an offer for me in the spring (my work is project-based documentary). The new job has been amazing and I feel so surrounded by creative people who want the best for me! I used the same mantra before a first date last night. In the past I've held on really tight to what I thought I needed to be successful, but you're so right that letting go is the best way to unblock the energy! happy birthday, enjoy your time away

    Thank you for these words of wisdom. I don’t know or remember anything I let go of. I tend to overthink things, and cannot relax or be in the moment. So when I am impulsive, I go all out. Because it rarely ever happens. I played Minecraft yesterday, which I haven’t for a long time, and I just sat there and enjoyed myself, building and tearing down. And I stopped thinking so much and it was wonderful.

    I am catching up on the videos of yours that I have not seen and I just wanted to say thank you from another Aquarius. This paradigm really resonated with me. This is exactly how I am living now and I have stopped being depressed and anxious the moment I chose to just have fun, be in the moment and make art without carrying about the outcome.

    Shayna your videos bring so much clarity to my life. It's so hard for me to let go and is a constant theme in my therapy sessions, but what you say is exactly what I try to tell myself. But it's amazing to hear someone else voice those insecurities and desires. It's a relief to see that there's a community of people struggling with similar feelings and experiences to me.

    I was diagnosed with endometriosis. I was put on a bunch of pain killers basically telling me I really have no hope unless I get a hysterectomy....I have been really burdened with this and having Chronic fatigue syndrome after having covid the first time being a sick for a month and never full recovering my strength / energy. I was lost...depressed...I finally chose me and let go I can't solve all these issues by myself. I found a PT instructor to help me who gave guidance and winks of hope I could get better. I found a acupuncturist that almost serves as my therapist that I let go of that control and just melted being open in my healing process. Over finally letting go of that control and that nothing is wrong with me mindset I received the support I needed. The universe sent me little signals of hope even watching your videos I believe is another way of the universe sending hope, encouragement, and support too...
    Thank you for being a powerful women spiritual guide. You do make a difference and hearing a fellow artist story and encourgement gives me motivation to keep pushing to keep just loving myself and allowing the path the universe has made for me to take effect.

    Yes, well, I wanted for so long to move in to a cottage and live a countrlife close to nature and the more I thought about it, the more it felt like it was slipping away from me ... but now that I've released that thought and let it be for a while, it has sort of worked on its own and now the vision is hatching and I am finally moving ...

    Wow, this is so strange for me. I literally wrote a massive journal entry a few hours ago that listed every single one of my fantasies of the future, so that I could let them all go.. Let them go without disparaging or disrespecting them, but just so I can be open to what is going to be, instead of letting my strong visions dictate all my present actions. ❤️☺️🔥 Enjoy Greece!

    Mine was similar in the way that I actually got what I "thought" I wanted and pushed For and once I did OMG! I hated it and pulled out! I was not sure what to do but I knew it wasn't for me and that something was better for me. So I stepped back and sure enough it has arrived and I am moving forward, grateful, thankful, peaceful and blessed. The doors are opening now better than I even could have planned. Example my new space, I knew I wanted to move and really REALLY wanted to move...but let it go (that's the short of it) and BAM! a place came TO ME that I never even know I could get!! But the universe has worked it so that I have and I am in this wonderful place. So, don't stop planning and dreaming but Let go...know but then don't know...Let it Go...Trust! 😊Keep you energy on you (headphone example good one).
    HAPPY DAY TO YOU!! KEEP CREATING AND BEING YOU AND THE BEST WILL COME TO US!!

    It happens to me every time. I forget about what I was trying so hard for and then it pops right into my life. I’m a person who is very goal oriented, but it’s hard to make goals when you don’t know what the end result will be. I guess that’s where the idea of just having fun with what you are called to do or create comes in and the universe will take care of everything else. Yep! That’s the plan Shayna, you got it! Have fun in Greece! 🎂

    Loooove love love love the analogy with trying to chase a dog. I have a cat and the situation is even worse! You very consciously have to adjust your energy and convince yourself and the cat that you're just "joining them" to see what interesting thing has caught their eye. Any attempt at capture/control means they're escaping into a hiding spot you can't even physically access!

    I think this mentality goes for anything in life. If you just let go and trust yourself, you'll be able to tackle anything life throws at you. I had such horrible anxiety last year and I had to learn that I couldn't control the outcomes, the only thing I could control was my reaction to it. And I found that this helped in the creative process as well. Its this free, chaotic, wild energy that I can easily tap into now because I just think "You have everything you need." I don't have to wait for something to happen or for myself to be good enough, I can just start and then everything else will fall into place. Whether we believe that's powered by ourselves as individuals or by "angels" I think at the very least that type of mentality can give us peace of mind.

    I really like the one week challenge. I am currently looking for a job and i am so impatient. I was refused for some ordinary job, and the guy told me to not give up because i can find something better. I see this as a sign that there is something better meant for me, even though i wanted that one (its just shelf stocking). Sometimes we cling onto things that are really not meant for us

But now that we realigned our goals to just move out of the country and travel instead, I fully believe this is the right thing for us and the universe was protecting us :) it's shifted my mindset a lot in regards to letting things happen and what i "think" I need. happy birthday and enjoy greece!!

I had cases where i was really clinging on to a goal, for a very important matter in my life, and at some point i thought...wait a minute...who I am to demand something from life? why should i be so greedy or spoilt in that sense. life is so large and there are so many other beautiful thing out there to do! if one door is closed, there must be a reason for it, or is not a good time. so let's go back to love ourselves and love where we are already and what we have achieved so far. be proud of who we are now.

    This hits so close to home! I'm in a very (publishing) career oriented uni program and one time we had to interview each other on like career goals and where we see ourself in the future. I noticed when talking to my partner that I did not really have a lot of concrete goals - and at first I saw this as a negative thing. But talking to my interview partner I realized it's a good thing: I am open to any opportunity that feels good and I trust that things will go right for me. My partner had many concrete goals like being in a book jury, but admitted she felt very stressed and burnt out because of the pressure she puts on herself.. :(

    I feel like I really needed to hear these thoughts you presented to the world
    I’ve gotten into a situation that I’ve been trying to force to have an outcome I want but I don’t think it’s going to happen
    It may be difficult to deal with but hopefully like you said things will get taken care of if I just let things be ❤

    WOW. I can't express enough how much I needed this exact message, and how deeply it resonates with me right now. I think it's the combo of the start of a new year, and my 29th birthday coming up that has had me feeling a lot of internal pressure to make EVERYTHING happen with my music right this moment; it has been weighing heavily on my shoulders. But, you are so spot on that when you loosen your attempt to control life, you allow the magic to flow. At leasttt for a more positive & enjoyable energy behind the creative process, because we ALL deserve to enjoy creating, just as we are right now. It is truly such a gift.
    I appreciated your anecdote about not getting into the first art school and coming up with this whole other plan of how to go about your artistic path. I feel the same way about myself as a musician: there is absolutely nothing in the world that could stop me, I just find ways to adapt. I will always be an artist no matter what, it's in the blueprint of my soul.
    I have some important recording sessions to finish up my 3rd album tomorrow, and I'll be carrying the message of this video with me. You have been such a friend to me on my journey, I can't thank you enough. I have never commented a big thing like this before, but you inspired me to be open. I love this community and always get inspired by the whole comment section as well, so thanks for reading to anyone who has stumbled across my comment, too!
    Much love to you and happy birthday Shayna!!

    I have problems with letting go, and this was really helpful. Your videos are always the day before my therapy session, and they are always so thought provoking that I end up bringing up something you've mentioned in my session. I'm an artist too, and the way you approach art and life is inspiring to me, because you are so positive. I can be very cynical, and you remind me that beneath my cynicism and sometimes bitterness, there is a sensitive, sweet person under there that is okay and safe to bring out of hiding.
    Just wanted to share a bit about how you impact people.

    I'm so glad I chose to watch this video today of all days during breakfast. Your thought-provoking theories always make me reflect on myself and my fast-paced life, when I forget what it feels like to take a step back in a constant cycle of worry and stress. I really appreciate what you do and how much you inspire everyone here ❤️❤️❤️

    I will let go of choosing the “right” department in art school. Every single one I decide to choose will guide me towards the path I will enjoy and learn from. I can’t wait for this new experience and will turn the anxiety into excitement 🥰

    Happy Birthday, My Bday is this week too. Its interesting, sometimes I have already done the things you are suggesting without realizing it. Then you mention that thing and I think "Oh yeah, that DID work". Like putting money on a pedestal. I have lived for a long time with that fear and panic around money and my worth of it. Then in the last few years when I have felt that panic start up, I switched gears and told myself, "It will be fine, the money will come and you ARE valuable." and then a check will show up in the mail or a person will by a piece of furniture I have flipped at a higher price than I have ever charged and talk about the amazing deal they are getting - making me realize I am even more valuable than I gave myself cred it for. The big shift in thinking, for me, came when I realized, there are plenty of people in the world who will discourage, dislike and devalue me...I refuse to be one of them. I would never do it to someone else. Why would I do it to me?
    You are a constant sort of inspiration and affirmation. Enjoy your Bday!

    Can you make a video on dealing with being impatient? I'm the type of person who wants fast results and I struggle with letting go and just trusting in the universe.
