I lost my job as a teacher in Paris because of the confinement and had to leave the country three days ago, with no idea when/if i can ever move back. thank you for being a window into my favorite place.
We are free. We are alive. We are souls dancing to the sound of music. We create art and we are art ourselves. We can be messy, we can struggle, we don't have to always feel ok. We are humans, not perfect but at the same time perfect in our own way. We are magical.
@@alexandratrianta2340 Hi, I just watched your videos and I love them! They're very relaxing and your smile is contagious. Subscribed on YT and followed on IG, I wish you good luck to the future
@@thepurplepalace85 thank you for sharing your life in Paris, I would love to live in Paris, such a dream. Also, I love your energy. Do you work on yourself to have an energy/ vision of the world like that? Do you read a lot to inspire yourself ? Or you believe it’s part of who you are because you were also born this way or due to upbringing/education? Sorry to ask all those questions, I am someone who has been through a big burnout/depression... I feel like I lost my spark these 5 past years , I want to change it. Cheers 🌷🌹🌷🌹
I feel like women are always taught that they shouldn’t take up space in this world. Thank you for always sharing your beautiful and genuine self. It is inspiring and truly meaningful. Sending positive thoughts your way ✨ We are free 💕
LOVE when you film your hands reaching for the sky, touching the flowers, wanting treats in small cake shops. makes me feel some type of way. a nostalgic childlike longing. i cherish you
I agree with your POV on happiness, don’t make it conditional on externals. As I approach 70 years in my life, I’m happy now but also grateful that I took chances and had adventures in my youth that would be difficult if not impossible to have now, had I waited until I “retired“. Enjoy every day. We are free.
That thing you just said about if you aren't yourself, you'll prevent the close connections you really need and the friends you really need .... just really really resonated with me. This is just so very true. I've been on this journey for the last few years of really discovering myself and loving myself and honestly, you have to find the love for yourself so that you can really love and connect with other people. It's just so true. Thank you!
I watch you because you remind me of myself - or what I could be/have been if I was a bit bolder. I am also creative and a bit unconventional. For me you are an aspiration. You also have an 'old soul' - an ability to see things clearly, deeply and speak the truth. Keep being who you are, because you are a light in the world, and only the insecure or bitter will try to darken it.
I’m so annoyed that your neighbor wasn’t just kicked out 🤦🏽♀️ I know things are different in France but damn! I’m at least happy that she’ll be leaving soon. And congrats on your book 💗 you are thriving and doing a great job dealing with this crap!
Yes. That is my thought why isn't she removed from that space by the other Landlord person...DAMN BUT here is why: French Landlord Tenant generously protects the tenant(the locataire) The tenant can leave anytime they wish with a. three or two month notice unless it is because the lost their health or job or over a particular age. Then they can leave at a months notice. In France the landlord is NOT free to give such notice. There is the issue and that is why the other landlord can't make such a move or demand on that tenant.
@@oussama9183 We are always finding what's "better than" when defending our point. Your home ought to be a space of PEACE...perhaps iF the person experienced a little "homeless" ness better conversations would be had, and even a bit of understanding...You know?
maybe homes should just have better isolation so you don’t have to hear your neighbors all the time, if landords were really providing a good service they should make all thos appartments islands of peace. Obviously if someone has mental problems throwing them to the streets isnt a good answer lmao that will simply worsen their case... They need mental healthcare which is too often (almost everywhere in the world) innacessible or expesnive. this is where theproblems is rooted @@startpage717
@@alexandratrianta2340 sorry Alex but i reported you. Not a nice way to promite yourself, you know? You should harras other content subribers to come to your Chanel and you shouldn't make publici on other content. If you're good, you will get subscriere. But this type of sneaky self promotion never works, it just makes people lose more intrest and respect for you. I hope you do better than that în The future
We are free!! Another goldmine this week: "In our life, we can have so many things going on. In one part of our life, when something is flourishing, often times we find that we have issues in another part of our life. It's important to normalize that our life can't be perfect in all areas. The most important part is to protect your energy. Just because somebody wants to have an argument with you doesn't mean you have to engage with them. If you want to have the power in the situation, you have to decide when and where" Thank you Shayna!! And please please stay safe!!
The blue skies, the music, the strolls through Paris, the ups & downs all bravely faced, the determination, the beauty inside and out, the SMILE... all these moments you share just brighten and uplift any day!!! We are free, and sharing in your stories and your little corner of Paris, sets my mind and soul free to fly above aaaaall the world's current problems and I love you for that. 💕💕💕
Isn’t it a good job you took no notice of the teacher who said you shouldn’t print this in English? I’m the type of person that is really affected by external negative criticism, it can sometimes really affect my day and stop me achieving my goals and doing things I love. This video has taught me to listen and to trust myself more, even when others doubt me. I’m only 10:24 in, and it’s 8:24am - but I’m already feeling 10x more positive about today. Congratulations on your poetry book, it’s warming to see you doing so well.
Just a note to you ....I’m 60, SWF, living in San Francisco, and adoring your book of poetry and illustrations. They are so you and fill me with feelings that often thrill me with how much they resonate. Just beautiful and what wonderful selections and reading your work ....seeing your drawings....takes me on vacation.
Dear Shayna, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for putting your vulnerabilities out there because they're allowing me to understand myself & the universal experiences we share. I'm having problems with my house share and it's drained me so much but i'm finally ready to stand up for myself, be myself and not let anyone belittle my creative vision. Lots of love, a franco-british fan xx
We are f*cking free! We can decide whether we want to engage or not. And if somebody’s surrounded by irrational, bad energy it’s usually the best decision to leave that person to themselves. Everyone’s on their own journey and we don’t know what she’s going through, but it is not our responsibility to take care of it. Love you ❤️
you inspire me to be myself but better. I don't know how to explain it, but the energy and atmosphere of your videos is exactly what I need in life. and you motivate me to improve my french. so thanks for everything
We are free!!! I love your videos, art and vibes. ❤️ I'm sending out positive energy that the situation with your neighbor is resolved. Thank you for being such a positive influence in my life. Sending you love from the United States.
This part about "watering ourself down to please everybody" and then missing out on people who would be "crazy about chocolate" 😉 really resonated with me at this time where I am trying to build a different type of yoga channel... Thank you for being you and inspiring me to stick to the actual me!!! 🙏✨🧡
Watching this a bit late because its been a difficult couple of weeks, but life always has a way of giving you the things you need at the right time, and right now for me its hearing your outlook on perspective and shaping one's reality to manifest positivity and happiness. Your videos really pull me out of my internal thought chaos and remind me to own who I am and where I am at as exactly where I need to be right now. Truthfully, the new outlook I take from this video, that I need more than anything: we are free! Thank you, Shayna, sending you so much love!
j'aime trop tes vlogs. Ils me plongent dans l'esprit de calme et de solidarité. Je te souhaite beaucoup de bonheur et j'espère que tout va bien se passer par rapport à ton logement ! Prends soins de toi
This was very helpful as I have had very strange dynamics and interactions with some neighbours over the past year who repeatedly block me into my home. I've never had trouble in the past and I had recently decided that I won't give them any more energy or power. Really good to know that others have experienced this too.
From a young artist and author trying to grow, thank you so much for the light and inspiration you give💖 I'm using some of your beautiful work as research for a coursework project I'm doing atm🥰
I started watching your videos when you started over and started living alone, because I was (and still am) going through a heartbreak as well, I could relate to you and you comforted me a lot. I watched all your art vlogs too, even though I’m an engineer student. Now I am at home in quarantine because I got COVID, so it’s really hard to say we’re free, but in a way we are free always :) I loved the first half of the video, it’s amazing how you’re handling the neighbor situation, and seeing sunny Paris made me so happy. Congratulations on your poetry book and thank you for showing us that we can keep a positive attitude even if things are tough. I can’t tell you how grateful I am. Thank you
Just bought your book! So excited for you and so excited to read! Loved your conversation about contrasts this morning and seeing the everyday as beautiful. Your reminders about being yourself and being with yourself and finding the love in that are so important. You are seriously such a true and insightful voice in this world. Your words are very centering and remind us all to truly appreciate and savor the moments of life.
So many quotable lines from this vlog !! “Practice gratitude, physically” and “today is the time to be alive “ really impacted me ! So much love ✨ We are free 💕
I look forward to your beautiful videos every week. Your words are so encouraging - as a young person I wanted to be an artist but I believed the people closest to me when they said I didn't have the personality to succeed and allowed myself to be pushed into taking a different path which I didn't really want (there were other things going on which made me feel too guilty to rebel and say, 'screw you, I'm going to do it anyway!') I'm now 40 and at a turning point because I can't continue with my usual job due to chronic illness - it feels like an opportunity to really spend time focusing on art, practising and improving and making it my new career. But I am constantly fighting the mindset of 'waiting for permission'. Your weekly truth bombs really help me remember that I already have everything I need to do this, I don't need to wait for anyone else to tell me what to do or say it's ok. Thank you Shayna! ❤
thank you for being so raw, open and vulnerable with us, you really inspire me to be anapologetically myself and also congratulations for the book release!!
I watched like three or four of your videos, can't help myself but come back to this one. So far this 5:05-8:36 part was my favorite. You're an unbelievably talented and amazing soul.
I have much admiration for you and the concepts you espouse. And, your music is always wonderful! My expectation is that you will remain safe and protected. It is disappointing to recognize there are angry, wounded people with whom reason does not work, and compromise becomes almost impossible. May your neighbor move away soon, and find her own peace elsewhere, and leave you to enjoy the beauty you create around you. We are free!
We are free! Honestly your videos have helped a lot this year, hearing your perspective on life and reminding us that we are in fact in control of our own lives has helped me make big changes that I otherwise wouldn't have had the courage to do. It reminded me that I don't have to stay in a toxic work environment and I don't have any obligations to anyone if I don't want to. Thank you so much and have an amazing day! 🥰✨
I am a Parisienne living in the US, lol same but other way around! I discovered you recently and I have to say I freaking love you. And I don’t say that often. You help me going through tough times. I admire your beautifulness way to see life about every little details we tent to forgot. You are an inspiration ❤️
We are freeeeee :) love you Shayna, you’re a special soul and honestly helped me fall back in love with life during dark times. Congratulations for your book ❤️
I can describe how much of what you said about minimising yourself for the comfort of others resonated with me. I'm finding it really difficult right now and losing myself. Fresh start in Paris is coming soon, maybe not soon enough.
We. Are. Free!!!! Woooohooooo, yes. yes. And yes again. Thank you Shayna! I loved your sharing of your dream for all your friends/ subscribers. So loved!
These few days i feel terrible because nothing goes right and i was like i don’t wanna live this life, i feel depressed But this vlog really make me to not think about these shits for 30 minutes. ILY 💗 have a great day
"Glass half empty, glass half full Well, either way you won't be going thirsty Count your blessings not your flaws You've got it all You lost your mind in the sound There's so much more, you can reclaim your crown"🤎
We are free damnit! We are free to especially pick and choose the power in our lives and how and when to use it! Thanks for reminding us all. I received your book on Monday and I have been reading a page a day. Well done! I am very proud of you. I hope when you went home that your neighbor was able to find her inner peace and sought the help she needs to conquer what demons that she is projecting your way. I ask everyone to ask the universe to heal her neighbor and ask it to assist her in her suffering. I truly hope she can heal. In the meantime...enjoy your happiness and gosh...it sure is an exciting time for you and thank you for sharing your road trip with so many.
I love the goofy side of you, those moments you lean into YOU. We will never make ourselves small, never, darling. 💪❤️💪 💞 So much love sending to you from across the pond.
Bloody neighbours! I’m actually relieved for you, nobody should have to put up with that! The landlord will struggle renting that place out whilst this dreadful person continues to live there. I love that you continue enjoying your Paris! All the best in your vacation home
We are free! Hope all turned out well with the cwazy neighbour! Congrats on your book. You are an inspiration as always. Love that idea of being your true, authentic self and as a result having friends and community who truly love and accept you. Great wisdom and advise.
Get Felicia (I think that is her name) ranting on film and upload it for our entertainment! As I have made it to the end of the viddy I am pleased to give this weeks phrase... WE ARE FREE!!! BTW book arrived safely thanks. It's is beautiful. I think there may be a craze to do some 'colouring in'.
Hi beautiful!! So glad the situation is changing for the better. Just keep your head up, keep your peace of mind, and be patient for this neighbor to leave... in the end, we are free! Have a good week too. Hugs.
last spring, I was studying abroad in France and had to abruptly leave my incredible life there bc of covid. i'm finishing up my bachelor's degree and am planning to resume living there once I've graduated in the fall. your vids have helped me so much during the confinement, and I'll never have the words to describe how thankful I am to you for all that you are and all that you do. watching you makes me feel like I'm back in France already. thank you for showing how much strength there is in love, truth, and vulnerability. I hope I get to meet you someday once I'm back in the wonderful and complicated country that is France. sending love from the states
I know it's too late to give you this advice at the moment as you're probably already back in your apartment. But I think I would have asked the police to escort me back to my apartment just for safety sake.
We are FREE !!! “Protect your energy “. 100% . Thanks Shay. You are the best. I’ve been having a hard time lately, and your advice has hit the right note in my life right now. You should become a life coach. I always appreciate your candor and perspective. Thanks again friend. 🌞
I'm really scared for you returning while that crazy neigbor is still there. She's clearly very unstable and very unpredictable. She doesn't seem like she cares of consequences at all, and these people are dangerous, you don't know when nad how she would get off. Some people are extremly pitty, really. This whole story make me angry and makes me want to slap some sense into this girl
We are free! We are here! And we are heard!!! I am free, I am here, and I am heard. Definitely my mantra today during journaling and (maybe if I get my act together) meditation.
We are free! So glad your landlord has been so kind and accommodating through this all--and congratulations on your book! I love these peeks into your life. :) I saw someone else comment that it's like a half hour facetime call with you--and I have to agree! I live for it :) Wishing you a wonderful week!
you are my simple pleasure in life!! i feel such peace and hope from watching your videos. times are certainly tough, it can feel very lonely. but you’re right- it’s wonderful to ground yourself in whatever small pleasures life gives you
your energy is incredible. what a privilege is getting to watch you flourish. also congrats on the success on your book!
Thank you so much!
When our fears win, no matter how they come out, we are all made smaller. The world and the universe is at your back for thriving through them. It will be okay. Take peace within yourself and those that bring you love and joy and security. Don’t be afraid to protect yourself. It will be okay. This is a message for anyone. You are wonderful. We are free.

I'm now 40 and at a turning point because I can't continue with my usual job due to chronic illness - it feels like an opportunity to really spend time focusing on art, practising and improving and making it my new career. But I am constantly fighting the mindset of 'waiting for permission'. Your weekly truth bombs really help me remember that I already have everything I need to do this, I don't need to wait for anyone else to tell me what to do or say it's ok. Thank you Shayna! ❤
thank you for being so raw, open and vulnerable with us, you really inspire me to be anapologetically myself
and also congratulations for the book release!!
Thank you so much!! sending love :)
@@alexandratrianta2340 I‘m reporting all your comments. One might be fine, but you are spamming a lot.
I watched like three or four of your videos, can't help myself but come back to this one. So far this 5:05-8:36 part was my favorite. You're an unbelievably talented and amazing soul.
Absolutely love your videos! Love from Georgia ❤️🇬🇪
Thank you so much!!
I have much admiration for you and the concepts you espouse. And, your music is always wonderful! My expectation is that you will remain safe and protected. It is disappointing to recognize there are angry, wounded people with whom reason does not work, and compromise becomes almost impossible. May your neighbor move away soon, and find her own peace elsewhere, and leave you to enjoy the beauty you create around you. We are free!
what a beautiful way of living! you posting every tuesday is definitely the highlight of me week
Elena!! this made my day
We are free 🖤 I love love your energy , you are such an opposite of me and I love your videos so much because of that. So positive and so kind 💕
This moment. ❤️🙏. Trust me, time flies in the blink of your eye. Enjoy. 🎉
Yes it does!
We are free! Honestly your videos have helped a lot this year, hearing your perspective on life and reminding us that we are in fact in control of our own lives has helped me make big changes that I otherwise wouldn't have had the courage to do. It reminded me that I don't have to stay in a toxic work environment and I don't have any obligations to anyone if I don't want to. Thank you so much and have an amazing day! 🥰✨
We are free, loved to see Paris blooming through your eyes 🌻💕
I am a Parisienne living in the US, lol same but other way around! I discovered you recently and I have to say I freaking love you. And I don’t say that often. You help me going through tough times. I admire your beautifulness way to see life about every little details we tent to forgot. You are an inspiration ❤️
We are freeeeee :) love you Shayna, you’re a special soul and honestly helped me fall back in love with life during dark times. Congratulations for your book ❤️
You're the best! thanks for the positivity
I can describe how much of what you said about minimising yourself for the comfort of others resonated with me. I'm finding it really difficult right now and losing myself. Fresh start in Paris is coming soon, maybe not soon enough.
If I were a pigeon here in Tucson, I would leave tomorrow for Paris. Those Paris pigeons have got to be living their dreams. Pigeons are free, too!
We. Are. Free!!!! Woooohooooo, yes. yes. And yes again. Thank you Shayna! I loved your sharing of your dream for all your friends/ subscribers. So loved!
Everything you say is so moving 🌺
I'm so glad it resonates!
Yes, We are Free!!! Thank you 🙏🏻! Gratitude truly brings freedom within! Congratulations on your book!
You are the cutest little fairy god sister I’ve ever seen. I love your face and your life 💜
aw thank you!! sending love
These few days i feel terrible because nothing goes right and i was like i don’t wanna live this life, i feel depressed But this vlog really make me to not think about these shits for 30 minutes. ILY 💗
have a great day
"Glass half empty, glass half full
Well, either way you won't be going thirsty
Count your blessings not your flaws
You've got it all
You lost your mind in the sound
There's so much more, you can reclaim your crown"🤎
We are free damnit! We are free to especially pick and choose the power in our lives and how and when to use it! Thanks for reminding us all. I received your book on Monday and I have been reading a page a day. Well done! I am very proud of you. I hope when you went home that your neighbor was able to find her inner peace and sought the help she needs to conquer what demons that she is projecting your way. I ask everyone to ask the universe to heal her neighbor and ask it to assist her in her suffering. I truly hope she can heal. In the meantime...enjoy your happiness and gosh...it sure is an exciting time for you and thank you for sharing your road trip with so many.
we are free and alive, hehe thank you for accompanying me as I ate breakfast 💓
it's my pleasure!! Thanks for hanging with me :)
I love the goofy side of you, those moments you lean into YOU. We will never make ourselves small, never, darling. 💪❤️💪
💞 So much love sending to you from across the pond.
ahh even hearing about this neighbor gets me stressed, i’m so sorry you have to deal with it :((
Beautiful vlog! The views of Paris, the music and of course your delightful reflections. We are free❣️💕❣️💕❣️
We are Freeeeeee 🙏🏻💖✨❤️
I came back from work tired and unmotivated, she and her video just gave me some energy
Bloody neighbours! I’m actually relieved for you, nobody should have to put up with that! The landlord will struggle renting that place out whilst this dreadful person continues to live there. I love that you continue enjoying your Paris! All the best in your vacation home
We are free! Hope all turned out well with the cwazy neighbour! Congrats on your book. You are an inspiration as always. Love that idea of being your true, authentic self and as a result having friends and community who truly love and accept you. Great wisdom and advise.
Get Felicia (I think that is her name) ranting on film and upload it for our entertainment! As I have made it to the end of the viddy I am pleased to give this weeks phrase... WE ARE FREE!!! BTW book arrived safely thanks. It's is beautiful. I think there may be a craze to do some 'colouring in'.
Hi beautiful!! So glad the situation is changing for the better. Just keep your head up, keep your peace of mind, and be patient for this neighbor to leave... in the end, we are free!
Have a good week too. Hugs.
this would’ve been an epic enemies-to-lovers set up
last spring, I was studying abroad in France and had to abruptly leave my incredible life there bc of covid. i'm finishing up my bachelor's degree and am planning to resume living there once I've graduated in the fall. your vids have helped me so much during the confinement, and I'll never have the words to describe how thankful I am to you for all that you are and all that you do. watching you makes me feel like I'm back in France already. thank you for showing how much strength there is in love, truth, and vulnerability. I hope I get to meet you someday once I'm back in the wonderful and complicated country that is France. sending love from the states
WE ARE FREEEEE like a biiiiiird 🐥 sending lots of love heheh 💛💛
You’re so sweet, I hope you attract good luck and happiness today. Thank you for your beautiful thoughts and sharing your authentic self.
We are FREE 😍 have a lovely week! 😘✨
Yes you are!
we are free! I love it! I'm so sharing that kind of attitude with you! non attached to outcomes 💗and just happy to be living
I know it's too late to give you this advice at the moment as you're probably already back in your apartment. But I think I would have asked the police to escort me back to my apartment just for safety sake.
We are FREE !!! “Protect your energy “. 100% . Thanks Shay. You are the best. I’ve been having a hard time lately, and your advice has hit the right note in my life right now. You should become a life coach. I always appreciate your candor and perspective. Thanks again friend. 🌞
I'm really scared for you returning while that crazy neigbor is still there. She's clearly very unstable and very unpredictable. She doesn't seem like she cares of consequences at all, and these people are dangerous, you don't know when nad how she would get off. Some people are extremly pitty, really. This whole story make me angry and makes me want to slap some sense into this girl
We are free! Full of Love! And ready to experience all the corners life has in store for us! All the best!
We are free! We are here! And we are heard!!! I am free, I am here, and I am heard. Definitely my mantra today during journaling and (maybe if I get my act together) meditation.
we are free to feel happy in the face of any situation!
THAT 8:40 TRANSITION WAS SO GOOD
We are free!
So glad your landlord has been so kind and accommodating through this all--and congratulations on your book! I love these peeks into your life. :) I saw someone else comment that it's like a half hour facetime call with you--and I have to agree! I live for it :) Wishing you a wonderful week!
you are my simple pleasure in life!! i feel such peace and hope from watching your videos. times are certainly tough, it can feel very lonely. but you’re right- it’s wonderful to ground yourself in whatever small pleasures life gives you
We ARE free 🤍 we are deserving of great things and we give our energy into what serves us. Needed this.
Thank you for sharing your light and life. We are free. I just need to remind myself. Have a great week.
We are free! Glad to see you thriving Shayna, despite all the crazy. Have a lovely day everyone!
