    My friend thought I was crazy when I told her I sometimes sit at a bar and have a drink and read by myself, or take myself on a dinner and a movie date. You have to get past the social anxiety, but I think it’s important to treat yourself the way you deserve to be treated. Why wait for others to treat you?!

    I know its tempting to buy from amazon, but i really encourage you to keep buying from bookstores if you can because it helps keep them open! unfortunately online corporations, like amazon, are the main reason bookstores are going out of business quickly nowadays. So if you can, please keep supporting barnes and noble. I know spending 15-20 dollars on a book is insane but I always just tell myself im helping B&N and i just smile through the pain LOL

    I love spending time alone and going on little solo dates from time to time. Browsing bookstores is one of my favorite things. I would recommend, instead of buying from Amazon going to your local public library. Where you can read and check out books for “free”, and then buy the ones you really loved and would re-read again from a bookstore.

    👻This is my first time watching your channel & it couldn’t have come at a better time. I’ve been in a 3 year relationship & we went to an event at our local coffee shop that hosts vendors, which I love bc it’s been awhile since we’ve last gone. The previous time we went I was super anxious bc of how packed it was & today I just had the worst social anxiety that it ruined my night. We were only there for 30 minutes & the whole way home I was thinking how my relationship has caused me to become anxious. I’m in a healthy relationship, but I believe that I’ve become dependent on doing things with him that I don’t know how to interact with other people. I asked myself, “what does Estrella like? What does she want to do?” We do things as a couple, but sometimes I just want to be in my own world without him & truly connect with my energy. So, this video was sign to start connecting with myself more & face my anxiety, bc it is not who I am. So, thank you! 💫 I hope all my ladies who are in relationships connect with themselves & pour the whole damn water into their cup, so we can truly flourish. 🌻

    This is all out of love, but please don’t tell people to always order from Amazon. We own a local bookstore, and that’s one of the main reasons there aren’t a lot of bookstores around anymore. Yes, it’s more expensive to support a bookstore, but like you said you’re able to walk around, look at the book before buying it and workers ask if you need help. If people only order from Amazon, you won’t be able to do that anymore.

    Amazon purposely lowers the price under the publishers price to cut out bookstores. Amazon loses money when you buy books from them, but they don't care because they want you to choose them over the bookstore. It's better for the authors if you buy from a bookstore or even get the books from the library. Libraries actually pay more for the books than regular bookstores so the author gets a higher royalty when libraries buy their books.
