Sharrah. You are such a beautiful soul. I totally get what you are saying. I always think this way. When the chips are down will you say I wish I spent more time on RUclips and my work or I wish I spent more time with my children and husband. I think you are making a wise decision. Your children will grow so fast snd you will wonder where the time went. I wish you and your family many blessings.
This is so well said!! Exactly how I feel. I don’t want to look back and feel like I’m missing the best years of their life. I know creating content will always be a part of my joy and life and I’m excited to be able to diversify what I share and how often I share it. Thanks for being so encouraging 🫶🏻🙏🏻
Amen!💗
@@sharrah.stevens My pleasure lovely lady. Wishing you the best life can give.
Well said.❤
Hi Sharrah. Family is first.
Thank you for the content you've created. And we look forward to what is next. Blessings on your journey and success.
This is my first comment. I am a mother and grandmother. You cannot get these years back. Enjoy your children. Making your children and your husband a priority is never the wrong thing to do. May God bless your honesty and allow you to be the mother you want to be!
Amen!💗
You only get one chance with your children. Don't miss a moment of it! They need a mother who is all in. You can come back to RUclips anytime. Invest in your children's lives first. You'll never regret that decision! ❤ Blessings to you for your wise decision.
I agree!
Beautifully said! So true 🤍
I completely agree! My kids are now in college and I see how fast their childhoods went! Everything else can wait. It is not a badge of honor to say “I can do it all” - it’s a fallacy. We can do it all, but not all of it will be done well.
I am also encouraged by your honesty here because now I am at a place to consider other possibilities in my life. I love my current job, but have always worked part time (to make space for my family) and now am wondering what’s next. It’s hard to let go not knowing If the thing I grab next will be as fulfilling. Thank you! Enjoy your Beautiful children!
As a 69 year old who has followed your Mom and you several years, I am so proud of you for making the decision to put your family first. You will never regret this decision. I know you are a praying young lady who hears from the Lord. Praying for you Sweetie as you move forward!
As a grandma, I’ve experienced the same thing. Your husband and children come first. Always. Everything will come in time, when it is the season of life for it. You will never get a second chance with your family, but you will with your job. One step at a time and day by day love those babies and your hubs.
As a first time mother I totally understand and I am so proud of you for putting your family first. Godspeed as you continue on your journey
Mom and grandma here. Enjoy the season of raising your family nurturing your home for your beautiful family. God has blessed you abundantly. You will never regret putting your family first. You can always work but you can only raise your children once. God bless you. You are amazing.
People looked at like I was crazy for giving up teaching art at 42( AP/ Upper Art Dept Lead) but I'll never regret as I hold my baby. You're walking mom video made me so grateful for her and my hubby, 2 other littles and you for telling people! Ty darlin!
I had a baby last year and it’s soooo unbelievably emotional and overwhelming. Everyone knows that but for me it still hasn’t gone away. I had a traumatic birth. I feel like I should be “over it” by now and that people will think I’m lazy if they see I’m depressed. I will watch anyone on RUclips who is genuine and honest and that’s what you’re being!
This is the craziest thing. Several years ago I started following your channel for the interior design content. I was constantly redecorating my house and planning for seasonal decor. In December 2021 I had my first son and about 4 months ago I actually unsubscribed from your channel because that content no longer served me in my current season of life. I found myself looking for motherhood journeys, tips and tricks for toddlers, etc. This video popped up on my recommended page today and I immediately resubscribed to your channel! I totally understand that your perspective has changed and I am grateful to see a content creator who is being true to their heart and family values. Best of luck and I am super excited for the new direction!
You changed how I viewed interior design and during college when I was poor until I got married and grew a business and changed my life. You made such a positive impact.
I think God not an algorithm brought me to this page and I couldn’t have needed this video more then right now. After 7 years of trying to have a baby we are pregnant (failed IVF miscarriage the works) and my baby has been my business I Am florist I grew it from the ground up and I was AGONIZING About closing for two months after the baby. You being courageous enough to share this made me feel less insane to want time with my child. To switch my focus and to learn to be a mom and give myself some for that when they’re little. Thank you for your encouragement in interior design, but also in life
I love this video. New subscriber. People will change and grow with you. People really are loyal for the most part and I have no doubt your channel will only grow as your content changes and expands. We’ll be here for your journey and hope you’ll enjoy the time you want and need with your family. ❤
I’m 2001 I had these same feelings about my job! I will never regret stepping back from that world to focus on raising my two boys full time.I cherish those years, which are over now of course. They go so fast!
Thank you for sharing this. It’s absolutely understandable you want a break. Please take care of yourself. I love your videos/tips and will continue to view them. Thank you!
New life level unlocked. I hit this realization when I turned 40 or so. I’m 44 now. My most happy times are spending time with kids and family. I had to find a way to do more of that and not be focused so much on things that don’t bring me the same level of happiness. Kids grow fast and I’m glad to look back and say that I was able to be available for them during the majority of their life “stuffs.” My kids, 17 and 21, are good people and I’m glad I was able to help them get to that and I don’t regret a thing.
Hi Sharrah !! I honestly can’t wait to see this transition!! You deserve the break and most of all joy! We love and support you!
I have been feeling stuck and torn too. My kids are heading into their teenage years and I have been working while they are at school but I know my mind is spread thin. Then my mom got cancer and will be having chemo and I will need to take her to appointments. So I quit my job. I just wasn't feeling that it was right to continue working in a job I wasn't happy in when my family needed me and I needed time to take care of myself too. Now I have more time for my family and I think that it is the right place for me in this next season. Kids grow so fast. You are doing the right thing.
Sis, we understand. 🙏🏾 Pivot how you must and do whatever you need for you and your family to thrive. I have 4 kiddos, ages 18 to 2 and seeing how quickly it all went by with my older ones… do everything to fully enjoy this season with your littles!!! Please know we are cheering you on and there are good things ahead!!! The Lord is going before you! 🙌🏾🙏🏾💓
You have 900K+ subscribers. You can do whatever makes you happy at this point. If you lose a few, you will gain so many more who are drawn to the new content and style!
Sharrah i feel you.Thank you for letting us be apart of your life and the lesson you thought.
You have made the right decision your kids should be first priority.
Enjoy them .God bless.
Good for you, Sharrah! I have a lump in my throat listening to you right now. You've built a positive and wonderful community that will always stand by you. I love your videos and I've loved to be part of the different stages in your life. Thank you for sharing that with us! Your message is powerful: there are a lot of good things to pursue, but there are also things that are best to focus on: family, mental health, and enjoying life. I hope to see your beautiful face in a video again in the future. Best wishes with your plans!
As a mama bear of 3 lil ones, 7, 6, & 2, I feel like I can relate a lot. Have to remind myself this is just a season and perhaps when the kids are a bit older, I can go back to doing work in the area I’m passionate about. You got me emotional when I watched this! ❤ Will definitely continue to follow you (and your mom :)) and am excited to see some your motherhood content!! ❤❤❤
i totally get you. you are a very beautiful person inside and out and you deserve to live a quality life with your family. kids grow up so fast and then off to their own life.
Sharrah, you are an angel. I say that because there are women out there listening to your message, like myself, who needed to hear your words of wisdom. You are giving us a reminder that yes, life is taxing, and it is up to us to call on our own strength of mind and spirit to create a life that nourishes us. Family comes first. The decisions we make in life need to support that. I wish that I had the insight to do things differently when I lost my husband and became a single mom to three teenagers. But you are making these decisions now and I applaud you for your honesty and courage. You are a resilient woman borne from resilient stock like your mom. The world needs women like you. ♡♡♡
Good for you! Be with your kids. As a mom of adult children, I’m glad I spent as much time as I could with them by putting my career second. Because now they are off living in other states. And I miss them. RUclips is weird with their algorithm and having everything run by numbers. I have a channel but only use it for a library of education for my in person clients. Because I learned real quick, I couldn’t keep up and have a fulfilled life.
So proud of you! This video was such an encouragment to follow your heart and what you know is right for you and not be swayed and controlled by external forces! It takes courage to do what you are doing. You are blazing a new trail and leaving an amazing example for others in the same boat. So thankful for your openess about letting the Lord lead you, you go girl!
It is more valuable to be an example to your kids and family by standing in your truth and valuing what’s important to you, than anything else. Everyone who cares and values the same will support you no matter what your content is. I left the corporate world last year to raise my kids and it about broke me. I thought being a “working mom” and doing it all made me powerful and a good example for my kids. It was the hardest thing ever! Turning the curve into this year has been like a breath of fresh air! The absolute best it could have ever been and I have received so many blessing and grace in the experience! It is SO freeing! Go get it girl. Absolutely incredible. Go with your gut! It will never steer you astray. ❤
God bless you.😊
Sharrah, today I stumbled onto your video, ...I heard your heart today, you have such a real soul, your honesty of how you feel. "Real is rare"...I see you have wonderful community here, a team of understanding souls. Yes! God first, your inner peace and your family is your priority. Without your inner peace, you can't march forward. Take all the time in the world... Do not feel pressure, just pop in whenever you want too... I bet you will have a HUGE TEAM that will await to see your next passionate journey. Enjoy your life, your kids and family and that will give you the inner peace. Many blessing to you and your family!
Oh gosh Sharra. ❤️ Your design insight is wonderful, and I love seeing the beautiful spaces you create. But I think I can speak for mostly all of us here we subscribe because we enjoy YOU. That means all of you. Praying for you sis, that you will feel joy as you step into this new season and the burden of expecting be laid down. That you will feel the peace of the Holy Spirit and the freedom to be fully present to watch your babies grow. It goes too fast. ❤️
Good for you. Youv'e accomplished a foundation of career, family, knowledge. Time to regroup.
This is a smart move. Be human. Not just producing and producing. We will wait .
You were the first person I started watching on you tube when you were in your studio. You really got me loving interior design and you are so likable and relatable. Good for you, follow your heart and you can’t go wrong. God will always lead the way!
I love when channels evolve with their lives! We will grow and evolve with you. I’m excited for you to create content that makes you happy, it will shine through and be even more enjoyable to watch 💗
Girl, you are a Rockstar! Don't ever doubt that! I built an interior design business from the ground up and had to walk away to focus on my children.
The HARDEST part was the fear of what my clients would say and how it would affect them. But, when the lord calls you to be with your family, the only opinion that matters is his. Everything he does is for the good! It will be so beautiful to have family content for you to look back on and for your kids to see how much you did for them!
I felt this video in my bones... I've been there. And I'm here to tell you that even though life looks different than I thought it would, I am so grateful to have the time with my children. Have grace with yourself. Don't jump back into ID posting the day they go into school because you feel like you "should". Do it when you feel called to.
I am more inspired by you today than I have ever been by your channels which is saying a LOT because kinwoven is part of what inspired me to become an interior designer in the first place.
Go on vacation, don't turn on the camera, play with your babies, kiss your husband. Just enjoy life. You only get one!
All my love,
Andrea ❤
Go for it girl! Take your time!
Can’t wait for your new content! You have no idea how much you inspired many of us 😊😗😗 love y’all
Sharrah, I’ve followed you a long time but never commented. You will never regret stepping back to devote yourself to your children. Trust me, I am sure you have been told how fast the time goes. That is an understatement. I left my career 10 years ago because I felt that pull that something needed to change. It’s a sacrifice of course as a woman to give your job a backseat today. But the time with your children, raising them and being present with them, you don’t ever get it back. Embrace this time. Follow your heart. You are an amazing presence on RUclips and your dedicated viewers will stay and support your content. Bless you for sharing your honesty. That’s not easy. Take care and go be present for your babies. You will cherish it. I can speak from experience I don’t regret my decision at all. My boys were 5 and 7 when I left my career and they are 15 and 17 now. The time flies. It feels like it was just yesterday that I felt the same way and shed those same tears. My boys remember when I left my job to prioritize our family. Not all have that choice of course. It is something I don’t take for granted. Take care and follow your heart. ❤
I’m excited for this change!! I’m here for your personality more than I am just for interior design! Love that you’re in the season of motherhood, cuz I’m a mom of 2 little boys (7 and 4.5 year olds), and I love to see RUclipsrs transcoding their content to more lifestyle videos!
Good for you! As a 62 year old mother of two I am astonished at how fast the years have and are flying by. We as women think we can “have it all” but the truth is we can’t do it all well at the same time. Something will always be less than it could be. Also, imo, I think children growing up with a camera in their face constantly isn’t healthy for them. It’s kind of similar to having your phone in your hand while having a conversation with someone-the subliminal message is-I’m not fully paying attention to YOU.
Spend these years raising them with your influence and values. They’ll always be time later when they’re grown to jump back into whatever it is that you feel like. But this time now-it’s crucial for you to raise children that you will love as adults. They WILL give back what you gave them❤
I wish you and your family every blessing and much happiness🙏🏻
Family first. Always. I’d walk away in a heartbeat for mine. My kids came over this for years… they are older now and it’s still a complicated balance, but when they are so little they need you more. 💕 I totally recognize and understand this struggle. Don’t feel guilty at all!
I’m So proud of you Sherri! It is a joy and a blessing to be a mother! Your career and your content and your videos you can do any time. But those babies will only be young once. Enjoy them love them! I’m glad you were answering God‘s call to be a mother and a wife! When you answer God’s call he will make away for you!
Yes mommy channel please! That’s why I started following you cuz you are very relatable. Interior design is part of your life but not the most important right now, motherhood is your current priority. I would love so see more of your lifestyle/motherhood and all the tips, tricks and things you’ve been learning along the way❤ I support you in your wise decision!👍🏼👍🏼
I'm so glad you shared this because, as a content creator, I have been struggling with the same feelings of frustration having my channel of a similar niche, and I couldn't agree more😔 I just want to support you and encourage you to do what your heart feels is right. I wish you all the best in your future work and life in general❤
Hi sweetie!!I have always had so much respect for you and have loved following you here on RUclips and Ig since before you got engaged,putting your mental health and your happiness and family first is❤-we all go through seasons of life and trust me when I say the days are long but the years are short-cherish this time with your babies,Husband,family and I know you still will busy at work-all of us that love and follow you will always be here with you no matter what or when your able to and feel the passion to vlog and or post/we love and support you and so proud of you in what you have done and will continue to do
You are not alone! As a mother of 3, grandmother of 2, change is difficult. The Lord is moving you into another season of life. It is exciting! It will be beautiful! Your family is your ministry now. This world is determined to destroy the family unit. Be
courageous, follow the Lord's leading, and build your families foundation on the Lord. The wisdom gained will spill over into content that honors the Lord when and if you feel led to keep posting. We appreciate your time and sacrifice. We will continue with you on your journey.
The Lord had not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7
Be at peace ❤
I feel what you are going through right now. You are a daughter of a very strong woman, and I am sure you are a great mother too. What you are feeling right now is a mom guilt which all mothers have and totally normal. There are times when we feel overwhelmed but you are doing great. Keep it up 👍
Sharrah, This is my first comment to u. I love the content u and mom show. Our Heavenly Father has blessed u and your family. U have to talk with Him and your family. Please do what u have to do. Time is something none us can buy. Your time with God and your family is important. We, your fans/supporters ❤ your informative content and will continue to watch.
Oh my goodness 😢my heart breaks for you. I totally 💯 relate. I went to school for years while working full time and one day I woke up and missed my son growing up. He was starting high school and I quit school to go to every game and event for him. Never finished school. But I love my family. You do what you have to do the Lord will help you. We will watch what you put out and when you have time. Good for you! Love ❤️ you and your beautiful family. Love the new adventure you are about to go thru. 😘
I admire you for prioritizing what you love to do! You're an awesome human being! ❤🙏👏 Thank you so much for letting us know about the beautiful change 👍🏻
If you need to take a break do it! If you want to make different content do it! Make sure your happy with what you are doing for you and your family! As a mom there is alot on our shoulders! Make sure you take care of yourself! You cant take care of others if your not doing well yourself! 💕
I hope you can listen to your own words and find joy back in what you are doing! I love when people are being real and that is what you are doing!
I'm super proud of you! Putting God and your family first is the way to go😊
And taking care of yourself is super important ❤
So proud of you mama you to step into your new season! God bless you as you discover the joy of the Lord, He is your strength and establishing your path!
My baby is 19 and I had lunch with her today in Hawaii. She brought me flowers and I looked at her just full of pride and joy. The years go so fast, you have to remember who will be at your bedside, who will be at your funeral and put those hours into them. We love your videos but nothing is more valuable then time with your babies and family. Enjoy a break.
I am so excited to see your new content as a mother myself. Please don’t feel bad. You deserve a headline influencer puts family first!
Wow...so proud of you for braving this change. You will NEVER be sorry you put your children and family first....for always or for a season. Bless you for being brave!
I love when you post different stuff, just random things. Like your mom's organizing videos, I love to see other parts of your life too. Not just perfection. I mean, I like int design vids but we already have alot of those, I would love some other things woven between your int design work.
My dear, follow your heart and we will be here for the journey. Blessings!
Thank you so much for sharing your heart. I’ve been wanting to start a RUclips channel but have been so afraid it’s going to be another time suck that will take me away from my kids. I so appreciate your honesty and I do believe God has amazing things in store for you. When we step out in faith and in obedience, God will take care of the rest. Can’t wait to hear the future content you put out!!
Sharrah the power of saying No is freeing...The algorithm is a choke hold ...your emotional because you feel so relieved that you got it off your chest... Your babies are priority..change is always good and listen to your inner self ..do it ❤
I understand completely. Trying to make my way back to RUclips . I’m still a very small creator but love my community … it’s been hard after having my daughter trying to find my rhythm.I have stressed so hard about coming back because I’m worried about the algorithm and getting started and staying consistent again. But I’m to the point finally where I’m just going to Create because I love to and miss interacting with my community. I think you’re new content will be incredible and relate to people on a whole other level . I’ve loved your videos for years . If this is what feels right to you , then everything will work out perfectly ❤ can’t wait to see the new content !
I lost track of you after you started Kinwoven. Where are you now? People like you and want to see anything you show us. Try to stop worrying about the numbers and do what feels good for you and your family. We will watch whatever you send our way.
What an awesome way to tell your RUclips family and friends you need a break. Thank you! Your First priority should always be your family and you deserve a life too. I will be watching all your new post and happy to know You are honest about slowing down. I will look forward to your new post!
Awe, this pulled at my momma heart strings. I've worked in retail now for over 25 years and I'm tired of it. Trying to raise a family and continue my career is exhausting. Take time off, enjoy your kids and family, your true flowers will continue watching
👏 Bravo for coming out and saying your truth, not to mention making the decisions that are right for you! I admire your honesty and confidence in changing your path (even if you didn’t feel very confident while you were making this video!)
I’ve been watching the videos of both you and your mum for a really long time now, and honestly I’ve taken a break from both of your channels for the last few years. Part of it is the way my brain works - I get into “hyperfocus” periods where I’m super into some channels and follow everything they do (as well as having different things that I’m super into at different times), and naturally some of the other channels I’m subscribed to fade into the background a bit more because there’s only so much time in the day and how much I can watch 😂
I usually come back around though and will come back to those channels and people when the the mood takes me… and I’m actually surprised to find I’m not subscribed to your channel right now and I had to come search for you! I don’t know if that’s because you’re posting from a different channel than when I was first watching you through Live Your Style, or what… or if I did actually unsubscribe on purpose at some point. That’s a possibility though, and related to another part of the reason why I haven’t been watching your videos lately… while I’m thrilled for you to have started your family and motherhood is clearly so important to you, I’m 41 and childfree so this isn’t something I’m that interested in personally… and that’s fine!
Bringing this back to what you’re saying in this video, it’s so much more important that you do what brings you joy than feeling like you have to keep making specific types of content that your heart isn’t really in anymore - this is YOUR life, and while RUclips has been a big part of it for a long time, it doesn’t rule you and you shouldn’t ever feel beholden to the algorithm! This is a bit of a “soapbox issue” for me - I’ve made a version of this comment to soooo many creators I follow, on RUclips mostly and sometimes also on Instagram, because I can see it’s all too easy to get caught up in the whole thing and feel like you’re not fully in control anymore, and have it start to take a toll on your mental health. I don’t think anyone in the audience or community for a content creator would EVER want them to just keep going through the motions instead of taking stock and figuring out what is right for them, even if it means the content they were originally there for isn’t there anymore… the “parasocial relationships” that people form on places like RUclips, where you feel like you know the creator even if you’ve not even commented before, means you tend to feel a bond with that person, and care about their wellbeing! So it’s for this reason I think ALL of the people in your community and audience would always support you (or any other creator!) in making choices that make you happier ☺️ Sure, I was originally here for the design and decor content, and I have been watching your videos less these days because our paths/interests have diverged… but even as a “lapsed subscriber”, I think of you with warmth and fondness and I hope your life is making you a bit happier than when you made this video 🥰
(And I realise I’m commenting almost a year after you posted this!)
Kudos to you!!! I think we have plenty of vapid, ditzy pantry organizers making perfect labels and showing us how to vacuum, wash a dish and make a seasonal coffee bar. They make us set unrealistic goals and expectations of ourselves and our lives. So refreshing to hear your raw honesty and saying that your family is more important than a social media presence. I love your videos and will continue watching no matter where your path leads!❤️❤️❤️
G’Mornin Sharrah
I’m a relatively new subscriber (1.5 yrs) I’m a Mom now a Grandma. I support your decision(s) to be present in real time with your family. Time flies once you start a family, each day is New bringing New moments that are far too valuable to miss as we rarely get a 2nd chance to experience lost moments. Do what FEELS RIGHT FOR YOU & YOUR PRECIOUS FAMILY ❤️ that will NEVAH be wrong. God’s Blessings to you & your family now & always.
Sharrah, we will love you and follow you even if you take a break. The second you come back, we will be here. You have created enough videos we can entertain ourselves. We love you and support whatever decision you make. ❤❤❤
So happy for you! The courage to speak the truth, your truth! You can’t redeem the time only GOD CAN! I appreciate your content. All the best!!!!
OMG! You are definitely making the right decision! No need to apologize for putting your family first! Babies grow up so fast right before your eyes and you can never get that time back! Embrace being a full time Mom! You will not regret this decision. God bless you and your family!🙏
God bless you for your honesty and transparency the thing to consider I heard you say twice you might lose subscribes but you might also gain much more subscribes with the new content you've evolved as a person we shift as our lives shift so shifting is a good thing dont fret go and grow fly baby girl fly do you I heard its very hard opening up your life here before the world but I say focus on you and your family nowwww they grow very fast !!!
Sharrah, I am an old mom who took my son to a sitter and went to work. Actually, he seemed to like going, but I have always regretted working while he was a
baby and before nursery school.
What I am trying to say is if you can be with your children while they are so young, I hope you
will. Not only for the immediate time, but as the children grow, I think your peace of mind and well being will be so much better. Sorry, I know I am saying these things because I feel this is the choice I should have made.
I am telling you this because I can see you are a loving mother wanting to enjoy your time with your children and give them the best life. I am sure you won’t regret this decision!
Enjoy!!
You will never regret this decision. Your family will always be first. If your channel changes, you may lose subscribers but your new content may also drive new subscribers to you! Change is always scary, but sometimes change is necessary!! Many blessing on your new journey!!!
I understand how challenging it must be to balance your time between your children, your RUclips channel, and Kinwowen. Motherhood is an emotional journey, and your children are your top priority and you love them a lot. I can imagine that it's tough because having kids also means having a lot of responsibilities. I fully understand your excitement about exploring other content, and if you decide to come back with new videos, know that I'll be here to support you.
Thank you for the explanation, don’t worry, I am mother of 4 I understand your position, so go ahead with your priorities, and calm down, enjoy your family, hugs
Poor you. I certainly won't unsubscribe but I'll just watch the interiors content! Simple....everyone's happy 😊 Good Luck x
It's okay to not be okay. Way to recognize the season you're in and make a change. Inspiring for someone like me who is also seeking change.
Sharrah, you answered many of my unasked questions in this video. How do creators do it? Are the cameras always readily available? What do they think is worth posting? Etc., etc. I often felt sad that you felt the need to share many of the special moments of your life when I thought they should have been yours to keep. You have taught me so much about interior decoration, but you have also enlightened this 68-year-old grandma of four about how remarkable married life and motherhood still are. Don't worry about followers leaving your channel because if they do, they never were meant to be in your life. As you stated, life has its stages, and you are living one of the most important and memorable ones of all!
I look forward to watching you cook great recipes and sharing time with Tyler and the kids. Enjoy your blessings, and I will patiently await this new chapter of your life. ❤❤❤ Virtual hug going your way.
I have watched you from the beginning of your RUclips career. I loved your content. Around the time you got pregnant with Sawyer I noticed that your content changed. I found myself impatiently wading through the baby content to find the interior decorating content. But I realized that while I do love decorating, I have watched so long because was invested in you. And you were a mother for the first time. Sharing your ups and downs, your highs and lows. You were sharing your heart. You are not the same young woman and your channel such not be the same. I love your content even more now!!!!! I end most of my days checking on Sawyer and Brody.
Thank you for the heart felt update! I will enjoy any of the content you share! Also enjoy watch you & Kin woven! You've had a lot going on. Its ok to pump the brakes and reset. There's no life manual that says it has to be a certain way! My children are in their mid to late 20s. I have young grandchildren and wonder where the time has gone! Slow down and enjoy the journey!
Your seasons in life are always changing and this one is a very special and important one. Your children need you now and they grow so fast that you really don’t want to miss it because it is the one thing I regret in my motherhood season that I did not stop and spend the necessary time with them and now they are grown and doing their own thing and it’s very hard. Enjoy your time with them guilt free. ❤
Do what make YOU happy. I am going to be your subscriber and I know many people will be to, a change is always scary, just jump in. Enjoy your time with family.
Oh Sharrah. I’m sorry you are feeling this struggle. You are so talented and obviously a wonderful mother to your beautiful boys. I’ve learned so much from you and enjoy your videos. But please DO NOT feel guilty for prioritizing your family. Make more content when you have the capacity, and I will be the first to watch. But you can’t get back this time with your kids. I wish you the best.
I'm glad you hear the call from the lord, family is first! Pay attention to your husband and kids, the rest can wait! The Lord bless you and your family.
Thankyou for sharing your heart.
Its sound like your ready and in need if a life change
Your decision is very admirable and brave.
Your time with your children is precious, enjoy that time.
I don't think you'll see a drop in viewer's, if anything, it'll increase.
Your real and authentic, and that's what people want.
Also so excited for your new content ps. It’s okay to slow down in this speedy world ☺️
It is such an American “thing” to never take time or a break or a proper vacation. Honestly, it is unrealistic and crazy thinking. I am so proud of you for standing up for your family and your kids and saying “no” this isn’t okay, and it needs to change. You are such a strong person and thank you for letting us know. Sending lots of love ❤
That's so true. Here you get 2 years off of work (paid) after you got a baby. It's so brave of you Sharrah,.
Yeah, i do wonder why Americans , mostly, are workaholic ..
Just wanted to say - we might just love the changes you make! Some of us watching are also in this motherhood stage - this is so healthy! And it's so relatable even for other types of work and life choices + being a mum! Thankyou for being real! You got this! I hope you have a lovely healthy break and we love seeing what you're up to when it suits. No pressure. You're doing amazing! Have a great fam time together ❤
You are totally making the right decision, may God bless you and your beautiful family ❤
I came for the interior design but I stayed for YOU! You are such a light Sharrah and will keep watching whatever and whenever you post! 💕
Yes!
This is why we are here! YASSS!!!
I couldn’t have said it better myself!!
Exactly. I don’t think there’s any content she could make that I wouldn’t like 😂❤
Me 2 ✌
Sharrah, so glad you are sorting this out and following how God is leading you. You won't regret being more involved with your family. Time is precious. Love you.
Girl… let me tell you.. I have LOVED watching you grow on RUclips and IG for years and years! I recently stopped working my job to be a stay at home Mom too! Because I also was missing out on my two kids and just time I was never gonna get back and it wasn’t worth it … I do not regret, leaving my job. You have to do what makes you happy! I’m happy your choosing your family and doing what makes you happy!
Go be a mom!!! No one can be upset with you for that. It’s not a job you can do over, you get the one shot with your kids. We will be here for any and all content you choose to share. Much love and understanding of your heart.
I know exactly how you feel. Be a present mom. It is the best time in your life. The here, the now. Savor it while you can. Much love to you. Being a successful entrepreneur, wife, and mother is so hard to balance.
Sharrah… you can have it all, just maybe not all at the very same time. You are an amazing woman. Whatever direction you decide to go in with your channel we are here for it!
You must evolve, we understand that ❤
Couldn't have said it better if I tried. Sharrah we stand with you and beside you. Let us lift you up
n love and prayers and know that we will be here in all your seasons of life when you share them with us.
As a young mom, I totally understand how your time/attention/love for your kids pulls you away from other passions, and it can be so frustrating at first. But you're doing the right thing by pulling back (even if it means getting penalized at work), focusing on your kids and your own mental health, and recognizing that this is just a season. You won't regret it. Great job, Sharrah! ❤️
We love you Sharrah. Your mama raised a smart woman. To know what your priorities are and to do something about it now, before the time flies by, is incredible. We'll be here. ❤
I am so happy for you that you decided to absorb family life! The world needs families and well raised children before it needs interior design! I look forward to watching you explore and grow!
@Tammy Fiala. Amen 💯
We have your back Sharra! Family should always be first. You can let this channel grow and change with you. You can be who you are in this stage of your life and change your channel to fit your life and share what you want. How about tips on meal prep for your kids and family, or educational fun kids events around Tulsa, kids clothing hauls, children’s room design and organizing - whatever you are already doing in your life anyway. We love you ❤
Love all of these ideas!!!
Me too! And I don’t even have littles ones! Most the time I’m just watching out of curiosity
This is so freaking relatable! How lucky and brave of you to speak up and advocate for yourself for this season of your life. Motherhood is such a rollercoaster, and these feelings are so so so valid!! You’re seen, you’re heard! YOU DO YOU! We’ll be here!!!
Good for you Sharrah! I think this shift is happening all over the world. We have been so focused on making ourselves look picture perfect in the last 10yrs; and I believe, we are quickly realizing the true meaning of life and loved ones, through this hard journey of Covid. It has simply changed things. That being said, I can't wait to see what you have in store! I would love to start hearing about your walk with the Lord even more too! Share him with us girly! Thank you for your vulnerability. Many blessings to you and the family
Oh Sharrah, this is so heartfelt.
Please know that we are your tribe and as your tribe, we will be here for whatever you want to put out whenever you can.
I personally, love all your content. I do love the interior design, but I also love the cooking and the kids and just the general conversations.
I am not a RUclipsr so I cannot speak on the algorithms, but I am a mom and family is most important. Take care of yours and hang out with us when you can. Sending hugs and positive vibes.🙏🏼
Go for it, girl! Keep bringing your honesty ON YOUR TIMETABLE. We love you and your faith and your family. Be bold and go in the direction of your dreams.
You do you Boo. I’ll share my story with you and you can take from it what you will. I quit my job in 2009 to take care of my 4 and 5 year olds. I felt just like you, I was missing them growing up and I hated it. I stayed home and raised my kids. Today I cannot get a job in my field although I’ve been on MANY interviews. I feel like they see my gray hair and not my experience. I’ve since self taught myself to build and design a website (not in my field of finance and business). I’ve started my own RUclips channel as well about with zero subscribers currently 😅. But I feel what I did for my family was the most important thing I have ever done. It was so much fun and I look back on those days with pure joy and happiness. Although in today’s society I am probably considered a failure since I am unable to contribute to the household finances, I feel like I did the best thing that I could by giving my kids their mother. These are the most precious moments. Celebrate every moment with them.
When I took a break from career to raise my children, we did have to make financial sacrifices, but it was worth every penny. When I did go back to work years later most of the colleagues told me they admired that I had put my family first, and they wish that they had done the same.
You are an amazing woman too! What a wonderful gift you gave your family and to yourself!.
If it makes you feel a little better the algorithms sent your channel my way. I just paused it to say that what you’re feeling/experiencing is for real and that I’ve seen other content creators step away to reevaluate what matters most. Having 2 kids in a span of 2 years totally takes a toll on you (ask me how I know, lol).
Take a break if you’re able to and post the content that you’re passionate about. It’s okay to change directions.
May the Lord direct your steps and fill you with peace as you embrace the new changes ahead.💛
PS - I’m subscribing to your channel now.
Oh, Ms. Sharrah! I absolutely loved this! I started watching you from your mom's Christmas decor vlogs. Before marriage, before kids. Very proud to see you evolve into an even MORE carrying and thoughtful person. Putting your faith, family and mental health first is what I wish for anyone to be able to do. It will be a treat to see what ever and whenever you decide to post as always! ❤ Thank you so much! Take care and enjoy those babies!!🎉
Your family comes first! Share what you want. Change the channel as you see fit. Most people find in for you, not so much the content. It's your sincerity that we come back for. But second to your family. We will be here when/ if your ready to post❣️
Sharrah thank you for sharing your heart and struggles of being a wife, mother and content creator. It's a lot and you never need to apologize for wanting to put your family first. I am a mother of two young adult children, I too am in a new season of life being an empty nester. I close my eyes and see my babies I open them and they have grown but I have no regrets because even though I was a single mother I knew how short and fast the years would go by. I promised to be there for everything and today when I feel sad I have those memories that warm my heart. Take the time you need make those memories and have fun with no regrets. We'll be here. ❤️❤️❤️
