P.S. Please don't delete your videos, I always enjoy watching them, especially the ones with the wonderful landscape shots or your adventures on the road. Your live videos from 2022 were also great! Please don't delete them.
PSS. Speaking of snakes never reach your hand inside a tire laying on the ground! Ditto turning something over laying on the ground with your hand! It won't just ruin your day but could ruin your career, or worse.
@@dantimber Hmm as someone from Australia our dogs always sense and find and know where snakes are before we do and am sure her dog would of found it first and given a idea of it. Depends if her and her dog have worked together finding snakes etc as to if she would know it found something too, But if you have no dog yes taking more care is very smart, Australia we have red back spider issues in tyres laying around we need to be careful of.
You don't know how many people you might have saved by being so open, and vulnerable. I'll be thinking of you! Thank you for the beautiful views. Stay safe out there. :-)
@@ShelbyHBTM You are one of my favorite channels Wish you the best You make the life of a trucker very interesting And, the ONLY trucking channel I will ever watch I'm into ships and trains never got to do either one the crews are getting smaller train crews are down to 1 -2 And, the merchant industry isn't want it was like back in the old days Loved your ferry vids :) Love ALL your vids For years I look at the trailers on the road to see the company name like E B Hunt or where it came from like COSCO which is China Ocean Shipping CO Am a subscriber
Sometimes in life all you need is somebody to open up and realize hey there's other people out there like me does a lot of times when you're lonely sad depressed you think it's only you
This is the first video of yours I’ve seen - and woah. The fact that you’re able to meet your delivery times while also filming yourself and so many unique compositions - impressed is an understatement. Mad respect. New sub 🤍
Shelby, my wife and I have followed your videos for years and love them. We really love to see your interaction with Dakota, your driving buddy/security officer. Remember that your not alone in your struggles and the more you share of the "trucking life" only helps all to understand the challenges that are faced in this industry. Nothing happens without trucks - no food, no products, no fuels - no anything! Truckers are like "Captains of the Road". Their Trucks are like a boat on the sea, with a very limited crew. Dakota is your first mate, but who is doing your filming (a deck hand). LoL Wonderful videos, we live in Bullhead City AZ about 30 miles west of Kingman. Please keep fighting the good fight and you will win!
I’ve been living/driving in my truck for just about three years. I get what yer saying. I found my peace and joy through Jesus Christ. I make sure every day to take the time to reflect on what is truly important, despite whatever chaos my day is in. I’m praying for you dear.
Trucking can be very stressful that's for sure. I have been trucking for 45 year's but you always have to keep people around you that have positive energy. There is a fine line between adventure and ordeal , but always look for the adventure. Mistakes are part of the job and just look at them figuring out how not to do it . Find a handful of people in the trucking industry that you can trust. I have life long friends that I have trucked with that you can call and ( talk you off the ledge ) when things are not going well. Always remember that beautiful sun rise or sunset you seen and don't let the WTF stuff ruin your day. You have done things in life most people just talk about. Always stay positive.
You took the thoughts right out of my head i been trucking for only 10 years now but many many hours behind the wheel and i have two or three people i know if i need to call them usually no matter the time they will pick up an let me ramble my thoughts or tell me tomorrow is another day when stuff hits the fan and feels like nothing goes right
@@someguysfishing I don't think I would still be trucking if it wasn't for my other friends that are trucking also. It's kinda a support group that knows that it's like out on the road. Like you said you can call them or they can call you anytime and just talk .
I just gotta say that you were one of the RUclips drivers that encouraged me to become a CDL A driver almost four years ago. I can remember when your channel was just called “Shelby”. I’ve been driving since 2020, and I do understand all the trials and tribulations that are entailed with truck driving. I appreciate you and your videos. Thank you!❤
Wow it’s been almost a year. Glad to see you’re ok. I’m a retired Truck Driver after 26 years OTR. I’m Glad to be home safely relaxing and working on my projects. Trucking is stressful at times. I remember the guy who trained me said “There will be times when you will want to cry!” He was correct!
I as a driver experienced isolation and loneliness. Trucking for me was a job I loved. Here today gone tomorrow. Yup it was stressful at times and there were times I would freak out. Even today at 71 I want to go back out. There is a very big truth in you can take the driver out of the truck but you can’t take the truck out of the driver. Once you get diesel in your vains, it keeps calling you, as it does that to me all the time. Trucking is tuff on drivers, it spits them out regularly. You my dear I have always loved your videos. Your special in my eyes. Maybe run with someone you like. But please keep getting help. Get help with the things that are dragging you down I can see it in your eyes and your facial expressions . I was much the same so I recognize it in others. If you need to talk reach out. I am here for a fellow driver. Thank you for posting. Have a great and a safe day. Happy trails to you. D..
This video could not have came at a better time for me. It helps to know I’m not the only one who is struggling with the emotional turmoil that comes with trucking. Trucking is very rewarding but it can also completely shatter you if your not careful. I am currently about to take a year off of trucking for myself after 8 years…because trucking is is killing my mental. But I love trucking so I’ll be back. So glad your doing better…thanks for this video..❤
We are certainly a masochistic bunch aren't we. Lol. Ain't a trucker out there who isn't brand new (I specify cuz every rookie is super pumped off the hop but a couple years in you start to understand the hate part of the love/hate relationship lol) who doesn't have a love hate relationship with this profession. All the best my friend, take care of yourself!
@@ShelbyHBTM I fall into the 2nd camp. I do genuinely love this job. 3 years in myself and although the honeymoon phase ended around 1 year mark for me the last 2 years have still been extremely rewarding. I have way more good days than bad. BUT that being said, the little things add up enough that when I have a bad day I REALLY have a bad day like mentally off the rails kinda day where every small thing feels like someone just murdered my family. Basically my highs are HIGH and my lows are LOW there's not much in between. Blessed enough though that I have way more high/great days than low/bad days. But you really spoke to me though about the mental health side as realistically even though there's more good days than bad days, if my bad days cause me to completely go off my rocker that's an obvious sign I have a lot going on deeper that needs to be addressed. My patience on my bad days is non-existent. Shelby you really are a great person and following your journey has always been great we are all grateful you brought up the mental health topic more in depth as it's something that doesn't get enough attention in this industry!
Shelby !!!!!!! Me and my wife are still trucking . 4 Yrs ago you inspired us to take the leap. We look for you all the time . We are on 80 just left Salt Lake City headed to Pa .
@@ShelbyHBTM we was so happy to hear from you . Your video really hit home for us . As we also have had very difficult life’s. We actually discussed the possibility of getting some counseling. Our life’s growing up was filled with cruel and toxic people. We both feel that we rescued each other . Keep your head up and keep trucking.
@@Jeffrey-xs3px ariat ropers why ! What does that have to do with it ahh I get it you want to no if I wear flip flops . Nope but this 260 pound NC mountain boy loves to go around wearing nothing but my bib overhauls . Driving for 25yrs Married to my high school sweetheart. What about you ? Jeffrey !
You make me smile and laugh. I drove in the late 70s on the east coast I drove an old cab over kw Black on black with no ac I am an air force veteran going through hard times now
Thank you for your Service - Lets get Shelby to the RUclips ... and better supportive platforms she deserves to be part of! I hope in my crouds her numbers will make a tangable difference to her bank account ... she (you Shelby) is just such a Natural friend that draws us in for more ... TO TEACH US PATIENCE when times get too tough for her to post ...
Good to see you again, Happy. I was just watching a sad video from Big Rig Becca....her company decided flatbedding wasn't their bag and shut it down leaving her wondering what to do next. I recommended team driving with a friend and actually having time to stop sometimes and have fun. I forgot to say I'm glad to see Dakota happy and healthy....I was afraid something really bad happened when you said she got hurt and then you kind of disappeared. For anyone thinking they want to "see the country!" in a truck....it's not like what they say in the brochures;....most of the time trucking is like riding a seesaw by yourself.
You got a new camera person. Yay!! Lucky person. 🙂 Hope you and Dakota are doing good. You look Great. Welcome back. We missed you. ❤ Keep on keeping on. 🕺
I can only admire Shelby's courage to talk about it so openly. I know it's more common in the States than in many other countries, but it's still very admirable.
I have been trucking 36 years and I can tell you this job is not for the weak but I must say you have done a good job and don't worry it gets to everyone at some point . Remember you health is more important than the job . Take care and be safe .
As an injured longhaul OTR driver, your videos have always brought me hope. My biggest hurdle right now is my mental health but as you said, we are all in it together. The attitude of gratitude has gotten me this far in my recovery. I'll be back to all the places you were in this video. I miss it so much. Safe travels to you and Dakota and your support team. (I honestly hoped you would make a vid about mental health- I would like to contribute one day if we ever cross paths).
Same here! I'm an injured long haul driver, i was injured 2 years ago. My doctor informed me about 5 months ago that i won't be able to return to the job i was doing. I drove OTR for 32+ years!
The camera angles, the views, the editing, music choice... Amazing!! You are clearly an inspiration for many people in the trade and just regular folks like me. Your aura, the look in your eyes, your honesty, and just being real in front of the camera. The whole thing put together is truly therapeutic. DON'T stop making these videos. I kinda hope someday I could run into you and thank you in person for what you do and maybe we could share in the consumption of adult beverages...😇
Mental health for drivers is huge. You helped me realize that stopping and "smelling the roses" is something we all should do. Also, the benefits of a "traveling companion," especially a dog could help all drivers with safety and companionship could help sole the problems associated with mental health and the over population of dogs in the shelter situations. Thank you for your openness and sharing this crucial part of trucking.
On the dog comment, I say companies that don't allow pets, don't care about their drivers, plain and simple. You wanna charge a deposit to drivers due to cleanup and damage risks sure. But to outright not allow pets is a red flag for me in a company who have no clue what being on the road is really like and run by desk jockeys who have never been over the road. I have a dog and am thankful to be with a company who is very supportive of pets and actually encourages drivers to get them as they know how much our pets keep us sane.
Mental health needs to stop being a taboo subject. The society we live in puts too much pressure on our shoulders, and there are simply times when our minds say "enough." You took the most difficult step, which is admitting that you need help to regain your focus. I hope everything gets better for you! A big hug!
Thank you for your transparency, your honesty, your openess, and your humility. You are a bright and very brave person. Thank you for the message and for this video!
Hello Shelby I very rarely add any comments, but thank you for sharing this video with your Truth. Mental and physical health are so closely related and when people understand that both are valuable and both need attention, the world will be a better place. I am very glad you are better and back on RUclips. If you and Dakota need a peaceful place to rest & experience healing in Colorado mountains near Black Hawk, let me know. I have unspoiled acreage adjoining National Forest. I keep it wild and help people experience Mindfulness in the Wild Forest there. Sending you positive, healing energy!
I'm so glad your back and feeling at peace now. Thank you so much for sharing your love/hate journey with us . Know that you are very appreciated by this rookie trucker :)..... "love/hate" is the perfect way to describe this profession. Be safe out there.
Keep at it. Don’t let the industry take you down. But at the same time listen to your heart and body. Go where it calls you 🥰 Thank you for this comment
Nice to see you and to see you smiling too Shelby, had wondered if you were ok. You and Dakota have been missed. Wishing the best of everything for you.
You are in a word, adorable. Your character really shines and I appreciate your openness and willingness to share your highs and lows. While I’m not a trucker, I think all of us can relate that our lives sometimes feel like we are in a lonely cab, while we attempt to navigate through all the pitfalls we encounter on our journey. You are an inspiration and the world is a far better place with you in it. Much love to you ❤
I’m so glad you’re back but, most importantly, I’m glad you’re feeling better. You have a big heart Shelby. My favorite video was when you made cookies for your fellow truckers. Really warmed my heart. I hope you’ll make more videos for us. Never forget to stop and smell the flowers.❤😊
So sorry you are going through this. I am glad you have found some help. I missed seeing your videos. Happy you are back looking forward for more videos.
You're an inspiration and I'm sorry to hear you've struggled Shelby. Thank you for being brave and willing to share this. Wishing you nothing but the best whatever you decide to pursue.
Missed ya a bunch. You've helped my wife and I transition into the industry and take our place, to running our own rig. Thank you for your vulnerability, expertise, and heart.
After 17 years of driving, I went on my own mental health Journey last 3 years trying different work and facing my fears as to what kept me in that lifestyle. It's a very thankless high demanding job, for anyone thinking of getting out just do it, not sure I will ever return, stay blessed Shelby time is the most valuable thing we have do what you love most. Thanks for being a positive influence in an industry that made me the worst version of myself. Love from Robert ❤
YES, we have missed you. Glad to see again, please always take great care. I hope you do find the answers you are looking for, but just never isolate yourself.
Welcome back Shelby!! Mental health is no joke. Thank you for sharing your story. You inspire me and others. Hi Dakota!!! Take care and stay safe. You are a strong lady!! You got this!!😊
Dear Shelby Welcome back. Noone is more happy to see you & Dakoda again. Much thanks to your camera help as well. I hope others back me up on my assessment that the work you are doing is the biggest factor of your stress level. My wife and i traveled all 48 with our GSD's Monk & Dayzee for 6 years. Please let me share career notes with you and your team via email or chat or whatever works best for you. Your content brightens my day and certainly many others as well. We care about you very much. Just give us a listen. Yours truly, Bill & Lisa, GSD Logistic SW MS
I'm not a trucker, I do live with mental health struggles. We get stuck inside ourselves, believing others couldn't understand. Turns out we're not alone. Thank you for sharing parts of your life with us. One day, one mile at a time 💙
I drove for Swift for 2 years and now I’m in the office as a dispatcher taking care of forty-something drivers. Your video is motivation to me to continue pushing myself to do what I can to provide even better care for each of the drivers I have, thank you for that!
Shelby, I am at the wee beginning of my trucking career (school). I aspire to provide for myself financially as a single lady and be a positive force in the world like you - thank you for your vulnerability and inspiration 💛 Love from SLC
Shelby, we subscribers missed you indeed!! Glad to see that you've gotten some help and are back making videos. I'm out of trucking - not because of the lifestyle, stress or strain but because of the lousy pay. I just got tired of being gone so much, and not having a whole lot of money to show for it. I regret that I never got to meet you and Dakota out on the highway. Is BKM still doing your videos for you? Good luck, best wishes, and keep smiling!!!(and making videos 👍👍)
Good for you Shelby. No harm in getting help from whatever source makes you whole. I missed your videos. I don't truck, I ride motorcycles, but always enjoy watching your content. You have an amazing life. We are enjoying it vicariously through you, and my wish for you is that you enjoy your life as much as we do. You've got a lot of support here!
It is wonderful to see you and Dakota back! Thank you for sharing your journey, both your trucking journey as well as your mental and spiritual health journey, with us. Your openness, candor, and honesty are deeply appreciated. Thank you for just being you and not just striving for viewership. Truckers and Mariners are people we don't know, all doing jobs we don't ever think about, but without them civilized life for the rest of us would not be possible. I wish you well on your journey of recovery and discovery. You have been missed by many people around the world, including me.
Great to see you're back. We all have our struggles. But you're definitely right. Trucking is a love/hate relationship. The general public has no idea how stressful this job is. I'm glad to hear that you're getting some therapy. I know from experience that it helps a lot. Be it mentally or physically. Stay safe out there and will be looking forward to your next video.
So good to see a new video and catch up with you, you have been missed. I also want to say you did an excellent job on the camera work on this video. Great scenery shots. Take care and all the best to you.
Appreciate what you do driving on the road all the time. Hope you feel better soon and thank you and all the truckers out there keeping America going. With all respect let keeps truckers safe.
Welcome back Shelby. Keep up the good fight. We look forward to seeing you feeling better. And a big thank you to Taylor for conveying your message so beautifully!
Other Drivers always told me trucking is the job "you love to hate." Good luck with the new adventure and thanks for making this video. My motto is keep on truckin.
Welcome back, I have missed your videos. Thanks for sharing your journey, I was driving a flatbed to Milwaukee and a stroke on July 5 2023 I’ve trying to get back to work since. So I understand to struggle.
I'm so happy to see you again I know you need a break but I say you help me see something different when I had heart attack last 4 years ago. Anyway I enjoy watching your video's thank you help me 😊😊😊😊 though doctor office check my heart. Don't forget take care of yourself Shelby you are beautiful person and like shiny star 🌟 never go down into rabbit hole 🕳. Happy see you again take care of yourself and your puppy 🐶. Great video but waiting was great .
Shelby I truly just adore you. Your personality is amazing, your energy is vibrant. You have some serious dedication. Never give up, the good things never come easy. No matter what you do, just be thankful you are alive and keep pushing threw to the next day. Happiness doesn't find you, you gotta find it. But I beleive you'll do just fine in your journey of life no matter what is thrown at you. Keep fighting and keep on keeping on and you'll be just fine. ❤
I am a former semi driver myself. I am going to try and drive a dump truck, but I am not sure if I can. I’m in menopause, and I never fully wake up. I start orientation on March 12 th. I will try not sure what my future holds? And I was dumped by a guy friend last Friday just a very heartless man. Good luck with your driving. I’ve been in your shoes with my late in heaven Richard. We drove team all 48 states.
So so great to see you back. I truly missed your cheerful personality and commitment to the trucking industry. I know you will continue on with an updated and manageable life style and continue to have 'Happiness by the mile'. Lot of love and respect from Australia!
Welcome back! I have been there and taking that first step to get help was the most difficult. Still finding my way back. You are not alone and you will make it back stronger than ever before! God bless!
I continue to be in awe and wonder at your strength, courage, and insight at such a young age. I hope that your life continues to get better and better as the days, weeks, months, and years pass. Not every one of them will feel or be letter, but I strongly suspect they will. Thanks to you, your cinematographer, drone pilot, and editor for beautiful and inspiring work.
Always wonderful to see you again Shelby. I'll come on to your YT channel and FB page every so often to see if you've posted. I'm glad that you are putting time and attention into your personal wellbeing and mental health, especially with the challenges you have mentioned you have been facing the last few years. Loved the Southwest scenery, drone, and gopro shots, as usual with your videos - they're awesome! - and seeing Dakota again too. She's a wonderful companion. Take care and stay safe and well. ❤🛣❤
Thanks for coming back. The road warriors salute you and we tell you "Welcome to the jungle again, we missing your explanatory videos to complement this warm winter.
My dad was a long haul trucker in the 70’s and 80’s. He suffered with mental health issues really bad and didn’t get help, mostly because it was a taboo topic. Thanks for being transparent as you could to help others, that’s very kind of you to touch a sensitive topic.
Thanks for this! You are an inspiration to us all, also thank you for the shots of my home state, Vail, Glenwood Canyon, Grand Junction....Funny you were also in Kingman. I currently live near there in Bullhead City, AZ. Keep on truckin'! :)
I'm with you. Been trough a depression, the time my family ended (and Holly from Buddy&Holly died). Trucking, travelling all Europe on tight schedules (motorsport logistics) and Buddy (oes, 12 years old soon) have been my connection to the world. Now I'm still in the business, out of the cockpit, but back on the ground. The dark moments come back from time to time. But theres always a solution. And if I need to free my mind, I pack Buddy in the boot and start over to the sea. Three hours trip, but it calms my soul. Thx for sharing, as always, take care!
Good to see you and Dakota in a new vlog! Best wishes always as you journey thru work and life. We all come up against rough decisions due to changes in life. Some things we have control over and some things we don't. Please stay positive and do what's best for you along the way.
I love your spirit! Keep fighting life's fights. The sun will rise again tomorrow. I was wondering why I haven't seen any of your recent videos, then today, just as I got home from graduating from my CDL school and passing DMV, with my interim CDL in hand, I got a Shelby and Dakota notification. 😂😁 Life works in mysterious ways. My current struggle is how to get a local job as a beginner because I have 3 dogs and nobody to help watch them. I live in Redding, Ca. so my options are very limited, but I'll keep trying until I succeed. Keep smiling, young lady, you're an inspiration to a lot of us. God bless you both! ❤ 🙏
Been Following you for Years !!! We met on Hwy 395 years ago and you introduced me to your channel when you started. That was somewhere in Ridgecrest or Lone Pine, CA I have been driving for 15 years now. Since I was 18, I am 33 now lol
I have followed your channel for several years. What stands out is your strength and the guts to deal with all situations. Keep being positive. Rosemary and Dave
Love your show. You started your videos right when I started driving trucks, and the way you show truckers life just gets better and better. Love the under the truck videos 😊
Dear Shelby, You have no idea how many young women you have inspired by your channel. I have been watching you since you first started and I remember watching you in those first videos and thinking: “This determined woman will go far! She is fearless, loves a challenge and is fiercely independent!” I write this as your final video has not even released itself to watch yet. As an older woman of 63 years old all I can say is DO what moves your spirit, brings you peace and makes you smile! You never know how many days you have left on this Earth. So make them all count. I personally believe you have the adventures of trucking in your blood and a normal job would bore the snot out of you like a caged bird. If you need a break, go an RV for a bit. Just remember, there are a lot of people who care about you and thought of you and were even worried about you when you didn’t post videos for a while. Please be safe and enjoy what life has to offer you. It will all unfold as you need it too. ☮️❤️😊🙏
ive been driving a long time too. i can tell you for sure that Jesus is the only way. Jesus can take any depression, anxiety, and loneliness away from you and its amazing. give it all to Him.
I appreciate you being honest and open about your mental health. I have thought about going OTR. I have severe anxiety/PTSD and think the quiet time would help me. I was a local/regional driver for several years on my days off from the Fire/EMS Department. I’m still weighing my options. I love your channel and enjoy your positive energy. Thank you!
Just the fact that you are sharring shows that you are strong and caring. the world is better off in tha fact you are not afraid to share. have a good one and be safe.
So Happy to see you back Shelby! We've missed your awesome smile and spirit. Love the videos from the dash, drone and of course the music. Look forward to the next one! 💙
I’ve been a driver for almost a year now. I hate telling people this these days, but before I became a driver I was a Sheriff’s Deputy for 18 years. I had to medically retire due to an accident when I was hit by a drunk driver. But the last 5 years that I was a Deputy, I was the Mental Health Officer for the county that I worked in. It takes a lot of courage to ask for help. Thankfully the world is becoming more and more aware of the importance of Mental Health!! From my experience as a Mental Health Officer, I know this video will help some people get the help they need!! I commend you for making this video!! I’m hoping one day soon, I will be able to combine my old profession with my new one, and start something for truckers Mental Health!! It’s so very important!! Stay safe out there drivers!!
Glad you found the resolve to get help! You won't regret it!! Too many times, folks avoid help because they fear the stigma thats attached to the issues. People ignorant of the facts are usually the ones promoting the stigma. Keep on with what you're doing...in your work and for yourself. My wife and i, while retired both drove...as a team. Thoroughly enjoyed our time on the road and the great people we met. Take care, lady...be safe. ...and keep sending vids as you find time. We enjoy them🇺🇸👍👍👍🐕🇺🇸
Shelby, you and your upbeat attitude have always been encouraging to me. I have loved watching your videos from the beginning, and learned a lot about trucking from you. My dad was a local trucker most of my life, and I inherited the love of driving from him. I have done some part time non CDL truck driving, mostly in the Northeast, but have been as far as LA. Last year I finally got my license to drive school bus, and I love it! I'm in PA. Go you! Thank you for opening up your world to us.
P.S. Please don't delete your videos, I always enjoy watching them, especially the ones with the wonderful landscape shots or your adventures on the road. Your live videos from 2022 were also great! Please don't delete them.
PSS. Speaking of snakes never reach your hand inside a tire laying on the ground! Ditto turning something over laying on the ground with your hand! It won't just ruin your day but could ruin your career, or worse.
@@dantimber Hmm as someone from Australia our dogs always sense and find and know where snakes are before we do and am sure her dog would of found it first and given a idea of it.
Depends if her and her dog have worked together finding snakes etc as to if she would know it found something too,
But if you have no dog yes taking more care is very smart, Australia we have red back spider issues in tyres laying around we need to be careful of.
If you tube presents awards for best cinematography you would win hands down! Welcome back.
You don't know how many people you might have saved by being so open, and vulnerable. I'll be thinking of you! Thank you for the beautiful views. Stay safe out there. :-)
I hope at least a few seek the help they need and a few more consider taking a look at how they feel more closely ❤️
@@ShelbyHBTM You are one of my favorite channels Wish you the best You make the life of a trucker very interesting And, the ONLY trucking channel I will ever watch I'm into ships and trains never got to do either one the crews are getting smaller train crews are down to 1 -2 And, the merchant industry isn't want it was like back in the old days Loved your ferry vids :) Love ALL your vids For years I look at the trailers on the road to see the company name like E B Hunt or where it came from like COSCO which is China Ocean Shipping CO Am a subscriber

So Well put "Old Guy"
@The_Oldguy Hello from Bullhead here on the parkway..
I’ve been living/driving in my truck for just about three years. I get what yer saying. I found my peace and joy through Jesus Christ. I make sure every day to take the time to reflect on what is truly important, despite whatever chaos my day is in. I’m praying for you dear.
Trucking can be very stressful that's for sure.
I have been trucking for 45 year's but you always have to keep people around you that have positive energy.
There is a fine line between adventure and ordeal , but always look for the adventure.
Mistakes are part of the job and just look at them figuring out how not to do it .
Find a handful of people in the trucking industry that you can trust.
I have life long friends that I have trucked with that you can call and ( talk you off the ledge ) when things are not going well.
Always remember that beautiful sun rise or sunset you seen and don't let the WTF stuff ruin your day.
You have done things in life most people just talk about.
Always stay positive.
Perfectly said
Much respect for your 45 years. Im at 32, just before the start of the CDL. Thank you for your service.
You took the thoughts right out of my head i been trucking for only 10 years now but many many hours behind the wheel and i have two or three people i know if i need to call them usually no matter the time they will pick up an let me ramble my thoughts or tell me tomorrow is another day when stuff hits the fan and feels like nothing goes right
@@someguysfishing
I don't think I would still be trucking if it wasn't for my other friends that are trucking also.
It's kinda a support group that knows that it's like out on the road. Like you said you can call them or they can call you anytime and just talk .
I just gotta say that you were one of the RUclips drivers that encouraged me to become a CDL A driver almost four years ago. I can remember when your channel was just called “Shelby”. I’ve been driving since 2020, and I do understand all the trials and tribulations that are entailed with truck driving. I appreciate you and your videos. Thank you!❤
Wow it’s been almost a year. Glad to see you’re ok.
I’m a retired Truck Driver after 26 years OTR. I’m Glad to be home safely relaxing and working on my projects.
Trucking is stressful at times.
I remember the guy who trained me said “There will be times when you will want to cry!” He was correct!
I as a driver experienced isolation and loneliness. Trucking for me was a job I loved. Here today gone tomorrow. Yup it was stressful at times and there were times I would freak out. Even today at 71 I want to go back out. There is a very big truth in you can take the driver out of the truck but you can’t take the truck out of the driver. Once you get diesel in your vains, it keeps calling you, as it does that to me all the time. Trucking is tuff on drivers, it spits them out regularly. You my dear I have always loved your videos. Your special in my eyes. Maybe run with someone you like. But please keep getting help.
Get help with the things that are dragging you down
I can see it in your eyes and your facial expressions . I was much the same so I recognize it in others. If you need to talk reach out. I am here for a fellow driver. Thank you for posting. Have a great and a safe day. Happy trails to you. D..
This video could not have came at a better time for me. It helps to know I’m not the only one who is struggling with the emotional turmoil that comes with trucking. Trucking is very rewarding but it can also completely shatter you if your not careful. I am currently about to take a year off of trucking for myself after 8 years…because trucking is is killing my mental. But I love trucking so I’ll be back. So glad your doing better…thanks for this video..❤
We are certainly a masochistic bunch aren't we. Lol. Ain't a trucker out there who isn't brand new (I specify cuz every rookie is super pumped off the hop but a couple years in you start to understand the hate part of the love/hate relationship lol) who doesn't have a love hate relationship with this profession. All the best my friend, take care of yourself!
It’s the push and pull. That’s the toxic bit. Not sure if we are chasing something imagined or something we love and put up with all that comes with.
@@ShelbyHBTM I fall into the 2nd camp. I do genuinely love this job. 3 years in myself and although the honeymoon phase ended around 1 year mark for me the last 2 years have still been extremely rewarding. I have way more good days than bad. BUT that being said, the little things add up enough that when I have a bad day I REALLY have a bad day like mentally off the rails kinda day where every small thing feels like someone just murdered my family. Basically my highs are HIGH and my lows are LOW there's not much in between. Blessed enough though that I have way more high/great days than low/bad days. But you really spoke to me though about the mental health side as realistically even though there's more good days than bad days, if my bad days cause me to completely go off my rocker that's an obvious sign I have a lot going on deeper that needs to be addressed. My patience on my bad days is non-existent. Shelby you really are a great person and following your journey has always been great we are all grateful you brought up the mental health topic more in depth as it's something that doesn't get enough attention in this industry!
@@ShelbyHBTM i am a huge fan of you and your dog and I love watching your trucking videos on your RUclips channel
@@ShelbyHBTM I agree…this is exactly how I feel about it…
Shelby !!!!!!! Me and my wife are still trucking . 4 Yrs ago you inspired us to take the leap. We look for you all the time . We are on 80 just left Salt Lake City headed to Pa .
I’ll be heading across 80 in the next few days. I’ll be around still doing my thing
@@ShelbyHBTM we was so happy to hear from you . Your video really hit home for us . As we also have had very difficult life’s. We actually discussed the possibility of getting some counseling. Our life’s growing up was filled with cruel and toxic people. We both feel that we rescued each other . Keep your head up and keep trucking.
What shoes do you wear when you drive
@@Jeffrey-xs3px ariat ropers why ! What does that have to do with it ahh I get it you want to no if I wear flip flops . Nope but this 260 pound NC mountain boy loves to go around wearing nothing but my bib overhauls . Driving for 25yrs
Married to my high school sweetheart. What about you ? Jeffrey !
I love your video of you
You make me smile and laugh. I drove in the late 70s on the east coast
I drove an old cab over kw
Black on black with no ac
I am an air force veteran going through hard times now
Thank you for your Service - Lets get Shelby to the RUclips ... and better supportive platforms she deserves to be part of! I hope in my crouds her numbers will make a tangable difference to her bank account ... she (you Shelby) is just such a Natural friend that draws us in for more ... TO TEACH US PATIENCE when times get too tough for her to post ...
You are a Beautiful Lady,You are a Awesome Lady Trucker,,Love Your Smile,Please Keep Smiling
Thanks for sharing, Shelby. You’re helping people you’ll never meet or know. 🎉
Thanks for being a voice. You're extremely brave for sharing your story and speaking for people. I commend you. You got this.
I appreciate this. Thank you
Good to see you again, Happy. I was just watching a sad video from Big Rig Becca....her company decided flatbedding wasn't their bag and shut it down leaving her wondering what to do next. I recommended team driving with a friend and actually having time to stop sometimes and have fun.
I forgot to say I'm glad to see Dakota happy and healthy....I was afraid something really bad happened when you said she got hurt and then you kind of disappeared.
For anyone thinking they want to "see the country!" in a truck....it's not like what they say in the brochures;....most of the time trucking is like riding a seesaw by yourself.
I completely agree with that last statement 😅
You got a new camera person. Yay!! Lucky person. 🙂 Hope you and Dakota are doing good. You look Great. Welcome back. We missed you. ❤ Keep on keeping on. 🕺
I can only admire Shelby's courage to talk about it so openly. I know it's more common in the States than in many other countries, but it's still very admirable.
I have been trucking 36 years and I can tell you this job is not for the weak but I must say you have done a good job and don't worry it gets to everyone at some point . Remember you health is more important than the job . Take care and be safe .
Wow, 2 drivers with more time than me in 1 day. Im at 32. Cheers driver!
As an injured longhaul OTR driver, your videos have always brought me hope. My biggest hurdle right now is my mental health but as you said, we are all in it together. The attitude of gratitude has gotten me this far in my recovery. I'll be back to all the places you were in this video. I miss it so much. Safe travels to you and Dakota and your support team. (I honestly hoped you would make a vid about mental health- I would like to contribute one day if we ever cross paths).
I wish you the best. Thank you for dropping into the comments 💛
Same here! I'm an injured long haul driver, i was injured 2 years ago. My doctor informed me about 5 months ago that i won't be able to return to the job i was doing. I drove OTR for 32+ years!
❤ ( U. SHOULD. GET. A. PROHEATER. INSTALLED. ON. TRUCK. -- SO. U. DONT. HAVE. TO. IDLE. [ FOR. INTERNAL. HEAT. IN. CAB. ) !!! ❤ .
The camera angles, the views, the editing, music choice... Amazing!! You are clearly an inspiration for many people in the trade and just regular folks like me. Your aura, the look in your eyes, your honesty, and just being real in front of the camera. The whole thing put together is truly therapeutic. DON'T stop making these videos. I kinda hope someday I could run into you and thank you in person for what you do and maybe we could share in the consumption of adult beverages...😇
You are awesome. You appear to handle the unhook like a professional. It didn’t look dorky at all.
Not possible for Shelby to ever look dorky. You are one impressive person !
lol I beg to differ. But to each their own, thank you ☺️
Dorky is the new Gorgeous.
Mental health for drivers is huge. You helped me realize that stopping and "smelling the roses" is something we all should do. Also, the benefits of a "traveling companion," especially a dog could help all drivers with safety and companionship could help sole the problems associated with mental health and the over population of dogs in the shelter situations. Thank you for your openness and sharing this crucial part of trucking.
On the dog comment, I say companies that don't allow pets, don't care about their drivers, plain and simple. You wanna charge a deposit to drivers due to cleanup and damage risks sure. But to outright not allow pets is a red flag for me in a company who have no clue what being on the road is really like and run by desk jockeys who have never been over the road. I have a dog and am thankful to be with a company who is very supportive of pets and actually encourages drivers to get them as they know how much our pets keep us sane.
Mental health needs to stop being a taboo subject. The society we live in puts too much pressure on our shoulders, and there are simply times when our minds say "enough." You took the most difficult step, which is admitting that you need help to regain your focus. I hope everything gets better for you! A big hug!
Her degree is in psychology she can return to it anytime she wants
Thank you for your transparency, your honesty, your openess, and your humility. You are a bright and very brave person. Thank you for the message and for this video!
Hello Shelby
I very rarely add any comments, but thank you for sharing this video with your Truth. Mental and physical health are so closely related and when people understand that both are valuable and both need attention, the world will be a better place. I am very glad you are better and back on RUclips. If you and Dakota need a peaceful place to rest & experience healing in Colorado mountains near Black Hawk, let me know. I have unspoiled acreage adjoining National Forest. I keep it wild and help people experience Mindfulness in the Wild Forest there. Sending you positive, healing energy!
Thank you for your insight 🙏 welcome back and hope all is well and only getting better god bless
Good to see you Shelby!
I'm so glad your back and feeling at peace now. Thank you so much for sharing your love/hate journey with us . Know that you are very appreciated by this rookie trucker :)..... "love/hate" is the perfect way to describe this profession. Be safe out there.
Keep at it. Don’t let the industry take you down. But at the same time listen to your heart and body. Go where it calls you 🥰 Thank you for this comment
Nice to see you and to see you smiling too Shelby, had wondered if you were ok. You and Dakota have been missed. Wishing the best of everything for you.
You are in a word, adorable. Your character really shines and I appreciate your openness and willingness to share your highs and lows.
While I’m not a trucker, I think all of us can relate that our lives sometimes feel like we are in a lonely cab, while we attempt to navigate through all the pitfalls we encounter on our journey.
You are an inspiration and the world is a far better place with you in it.
Much love to you ❤
I’m so glad you’re back but, most importantly, I’m glad you’re feeling better. You have a big heart Shelby. My favorite video was when you made cookies for your fellow truckers. Really warmed my heart. I hope you’ll make more videos for us. Never forget to stop and smell the flowers.❤😊
So sorry you are going through this. I am glad you have found some help. I missed seeing your videos. Happy you are back looking forward for more videos.
I appreciate you. Thank you for your support
You're an inspiration and I'm sorry to hear you've struggled Shelby. Thank you for being brave and willing to share this. Wishing you nothing but the best whatever you decide to pursue.
I’m not a trucker but a warehouse worker. I always love your take on trucking! Thanks for the video and stay safe out there!
So glad u got the help, and I can see that ur very happy now, dont ever give up, ur so worth it
Missed ya a bunch. You've helped my wife and I transition into the industry and take our place, to running our own rig. Thank you for your vulnerability, expertise, and heart.
GREAT TO SEE YOU BACK ON-LINE Shelby .
After 17 years of driving, I went on my own mental health Journey last 3 years trying different work and facing my fears as to what kept me in that lifestyle. It's a very thankless high demanding job, for anyone thinking of getting out just do it, not sure I will ever return, stay blessed Shelby time is the most valuable thing we have do what you love most. Thanks for being a positive influence in an industry that made me the worst version of myself. Love from Robert ❤
I always tell people trucking is bitter sweet and like a abusive relationship
YES, we have missed you. Glad to see again, please always take great care. I hope you do find the answers you are looking for, but just never isolate yourself.
Welcome back Shelby!! Mental health is no joke. Thank you for sharing your story. You inspire me and others. Hi Dakota!!! Take care and stay safe. You are a strong lady!! You got this!!😊
So Happy Dakota is in the photo! was worried! Hope all is Well, will try to catch the final stream!
This video was so beautifully put together. Welcome back!
Thank you! Feel this, mental health is real and we all need to be kind to yourself and others. Love this, great work Shelby and co ✨
Dear Shelby
Welcome back. Noone is more happy to see you & Dakoda again. Much thanks to your camera help as well. I hope others back me up on my assessment that the work you are doing is the biggest factor of your stress level. My wife and i traveled all 48 with our GSD's Monk & Dayzee for 6 years. Please let me share career notes with you and your team via email or chat or whatever works best for you. Your content brightens my day and certainly many others as well. We care about you very much. Just give us a listen. Yours truly, Bill & Lisa, GSD Logistic SW MS
I'm not a trucker, I do live with mental health struggles. We get stuck inside ourselves, believing others couldn't understand. Turns out we're not alone. Thank you for sharing parts of your life with us. One day, one mile at a time 💙
I drove for Swift for 2 years and now I’m in the office as a dispatcher taking care of forty-something drivers. Your video is motivation to me to continue pushing myself to do what I can to provide even better care for each of the drivers I have, thank you for that!
Shelby, I am at the wee beginning of my trucking career (school). I aspire to provide for myself financially as a single lady and be a positive force in the world like you - thank you for your vulnerability and inspiration 💛 Love from SLC
Good things come to those (of us) who wait.
Welcome back Shel, u’ve been missed.
Shelby, we subscribers missed you indeed!! Glad to see that you've gotten some help and are back making videos.
I'm out of trucking - not because of the lifestyle, stress or strain but because of the lousy pay. I just got tired of being gone so much, and not having a whole lot of money to show for it. I regret that I never got to meet you and Dakota out on the highway. Is BKM still doing your videos for you?
Good luck, best wishes, and keep smiling!!!(and making videos 👍👍)
Good for you Shelby. No harm in getting help from whatever source makes you whole. I missed your videos. I don't truck, I ride motorcycles, but always enjoy watching your content. You have an amazing life. We are enjoying it vicariously through you, and my wish for you is that you enjoy your life as much as we do. You've got a lot of support here!
It is wonderful to see you and Dakota back! Thank you for sharing your journey, both your trucking journey as well as your mental and spiritual health journey, with us. Your openness, candor, and honesty are deeply appreciated. Thank you for just being you and not just striving for viewership. Truckers and Mariners are people we don't know, all doing jobs we don't ever think about, but without them civilized life for the rest of us would not be possible. I wish you well on your journey of recovery and discovery. You have been missed by many people around the world, including me.
Best trucking channel on the Tube. Keep on trucking -
Great to see you're back. We all have our struggles. But you're definitely right. Trucking is a love/hate relationship. The general public has no idea how stressful this job is. I'm glad to hear that you're getting some therapy. I know from experience that it helps a lot. Be it mentally or physically. Stay safe out there and will be looking forward to your next video.
So good to see a new video and catch up with you, you have been missed. I also want to say you did an excellent job on the camera work on this video. Great scenery shots. Take care and all the best to you.
Appreciate what you do driving on the road all the time. Hope you feel better soon and thank you and all the truckers out there keeping America going. With all respect let keeps truckers safe.
Happy Easter. Love ya.❤
Welcome back Shelby. Keep up the good fight. We look forward to seeing you feeling better. And a big thank you to Taylor for conveying your message so beautifully!
Other Drivers always told me trucking is the job "you love to hate." Good luck with the new adventure and thanks for making this video. My motto is keep on truckin.
So glad to hear from you. We’re pulling for you. Take care of yourself. It’s the one time we can be rightfully selfish. God bless 🙏🏿
Welcome back, I have missed your videos. Thanks for sharing your journey, I was driving a flatbed to Milwaukee and a stroke on July 5 2023 I’ve trying to get back to work since. So I understand to struggle.
Congrats on making your way back to work. I hope you make it through any medical hurdles you have ahead of you.
I'm glad to see you back on RUclips. Keep pushing on, girl. I love the music always 💯
I'm so happy to see you again I know you need a break but I say you help me see something different when I had heart attack last 4 years ago. Anyway I enjoy watching your video's thank you help me 😊😊😊😊 though doctor office check my heart. Don't forget take care of yourself Shelby you are beautiful person and like shiny star 🌟 never go down into rabbit hole 🕳. Happy see you again take care of yourself and your puppy 🐶. Great video but waiting was great .
Shelby I truly just adore you. Your personality is amazing, your energy is vibrant. You have some serious dedication. Never give up, the good things never come easy. No matter what you do, just be thankful you are alive and keep pushing threw to the next day. Happiness doesn't find you, you gotta find it. But I beleive you'll do just fine in your journey of life no matter what is thrown at you. Keep fighting and keep on keeping on and you'll be just fine. ❤
Thank you so much. That was really sweet of you.
I am a former semi driver myself. I am going to try and drive a dump truck, but I am not sure if I can. I’m in menopause, and I never fully wake up. I start orientation on March 12 th. I will try not sure what my future holds? And I was dumped by a guy friend last Friday just a very heartless man.
Good luck with your driving. I’ve been in your shoes with my late in heaven Richard. We drove team all 48 states.
GOOD. LUCK. TO. U. MAM. , FELLOW. DRIVER. ❤❤❤! .
we love you shelby hugs xx you helped methrough a tough time xx
So so great to see you back. I truly missed your cheerful personality and commitment to the trucking industry. I know you will continue on with an updated and manageable life style and continue to have 'Happiness by the mile'. Lot of love and respect from Australia!
Welcome back! I have been there and taking that first step to get help was the most difficult. Still finding my way back. You are not alone and you will make it back stronger than ever before! God bless!
Amazing video. Thank you you for sharing with us. We miss you here, glad you are back.
I love your channel and I’m so glad to see a new video. Stay blessed and keep on trucking.
I continue to be in awe and wonder at your strength, courage, and insight at such a young age. I hope that your life continues to get better and better as the days, weeks, months, and years pass. Not every one of them will feel or be letter, but I strongly suspect they will.
Thanks to you, your cinematographer, drone pilot, and editor for beautiful and inspiring work.
Always wonderful to see you again Shelby. I'll come on to your YT channel and FB page every so often to see if you've posted. I'm glad that you are putting time and attention into your personal wellbeing and mental health, especially with the challenges you have mentioned you have been facing the last few years. Loved the Southwest scenery, drone, and gopro shots, as usual with your videos - they're awesome! - and seeing Dakota again too. She's a wonderful companion. Take care and stay safe and well. ❤🛣❤
Thanks for coming back. The road warriors salute you and we tell you "Welcome to the jungle again, we missing your explanatory videos to complement this warm winter.
Hi Shelby!! You made my day when your video popped up!! Glad to see your smiling face again!! Sending lots of love to you!! ❤❤❤❤❤
My dad was a long haul trucker in the 70’s and 80’s. He suffered with mental health issues really bad and didn’t get help, mostly because it was a taboo topic. Thanks for being transparent as you could to help others, that’s very kind of you to touch a sensitive topic.
Thanks for this! You are an inspiration to us all, also thank you for the shots of my home state, Vail, Glenwood Canyon, Grand Junction....Funny you were also in Kingman. I currently live near there in Bullhead City, AZ. Keep on truckin'! :)
I'm with you.
Been trough a depression, the time my family ended (and Holly from Buddy&Holly died). Trucking, travelling all Europe on tight schedules (motorsport logistics) and Buddy (oes, 12 years old soon) have been my connection to the world.
Now I'm still in the business, out of the cockpit, but back on the ground.
The dark moments come back from time to time.
But theres always a solution.
And if I need to free my mind, I pack Buddy in the boot and start over to the sea. Three hours trip, but it calms my soul.
Thx for sharing, as always, take care!
Good to see you and Dakota in a new vlog! Best wishes always as you journey thru work and life. We all come up against rough decisions due to changes in life. Some things we have control over and some things we don't. Please stay positive and do what's best for you along the way.
I watch your videos every morning ! I also like the place you go and the landscape .
I love your spirit! Keep fighting life's fights. The sun will rise again tomorrow. I was wondering why I haven't seen any of your recent videos, then today, just as I got home from graduating from my CDL school and passing DMV, with my interim CDL in hand, I got a Shelby and Dakota notification. 😂😁 Life works in mysterious ways. My current struggle is how to get a local job as a beginner because I have 3 dogs and nobody to help watch them. I live in Redding, Ca. so my options are very limited, but I'll keep trying until I succeed. Keep smiling, young lady, you're an inspiration to a lot of us. God bless you both! ❤ 🙏
Look at mixer jobs. They will hire new folks as well.
@@mattjv2142 Thank you. I appreciate that.
Been Following you for Years !!!
We met on Hwy 395 years ago and you introduced me to your channel when you started. That was somewhere in Ridgecrest or Lone Pine, CA
I have been driving for 15 years now.
Since I was 18, I am 33 now lol
Glad we get one more video.
I have followed your channel for several years. What stands out is your strength and the guts to deal with all situations. Keep being positive.
Rosemary and Dave
No finals please.
Love your show. You started your videos right when I started driving trucks, and the way you show truckers life just gets better and better. Love the under the truck videos 😊
Dear Shelby,
You have no idea how many young women you have inspired by your channel. I have been watching you since you first started and I remember watching you in those first videos and thinking: “This determined woman will go far! She is fearless, loves a challenge and is fiercely independent!” I write this as your final video has not even released itself to watch yet. As an older woman of 63 years old all I can say is DO what moves your spirit, brings you peace and makes you smile! You never know how many days you have left on this Earth. So make them all count. I personally believe you have the adventures of trucking in your blood and a normal job would bore the snot out of you like a caged bird. If you need a break, go an RV for a bit. Just remember, there are a lot of people who care about you and thought of you and were even worried about you when you didn’t post videos for a while. Please be safe and enjoy what life has to offer you. It will all unfold as you need it too. ☮️❤️😊🙏
This was so sweet and kind. Thank you so much for all the love and support 🥰
Thank you for your wonderful videos. You were an inspiration to us all. I love watching the places that you go. Be proud of yourself too., we are!
ive been driving a long time too. i can tell you for sure that Jesus is the only way. Jesus can take any depression, anxiety, and loneliness away from you and its amazing. give it all to Him.
I appreciate you being honest and open about your mental health. I have thought about going OTR. I have severe anxiety/PTSD and think the quiet time would help me. I was a local/regional driver for several years on my days off from the Fire/EMS Department. I’m still weighing my options. I love your channel and enjoy your positive energy. Thank you!
Just the fact that you are sharring shows that you are strong and caring. the world is better off in tha fact you are not afraid to share. have a good one and be safe.
So Happy to see you back Shelby! We've missed your awesome smile and spirit. Love the videos from the dash, drone and of course the music. Look forward to the next one! 💙
Thank you for your video. This speaks to all of us so much.
I’ve been a driver for almost a year now. I hate telling people this these days, but before I became a driver I was a Sheriff’s Deputy for 18 years. I had to medically retire due to an accident when I was hit by a drunk driver.
But the last 5 years that I was a Deputy, I was the Mental Health Officer for the county that I worked in. It takes a lot of courage to ask for help. Thankfully the world is becoming more and more aware of the importance of Mental Health!!
From my experience as a Mental Health Officer, I know this video will help some people get the help they need!! I commend you for making this video!! I’m hoping one day soon, I will be able to combine my old profession with my new one, and start something for truckers Mental Health!! It’s so very important!! Stay safe out there drivers!!
Glad you found the resolve to get help! You won't regret it!! Too many times, folks avoid help because they fear the stigma thats attached to the issues. People ignorant of the facts are usually the ones promoting the stigma. Keep on with what you're doing...in your work and for yourself. My wife and i, while retired both drove...as a team. Thoroughly enjoyed our time on the road and the great people we met. Take care, lady...be safe. ...and keep sending vids as you find time. We enjoy them🇺🇸👍👍👍🐕🇺🇸
You’re parents should be proud very proud!
Glad to see ya back. Love your videos!
Shelby, you and your upbeat attitude have always been encouraging to me. I have loved watching your videos from the beginning, and learned a lot about trucking from you. My dad was a local trucker most of my life, and I inherited the love of driving from him. I have done some part time non CDL truck driving, mostly in the Northeast, but have been as far as LA. Last year I finally got my license to drive school bus, and I love it! I'm in PA.
Go you! Thank you for opening up your world to us.
Welcome back s&d. Good that you have help and especially lots of hugs from fluffy, especially looking forward and more vlogs... ❤❤🦾🦴
