      Came to say this! The way they talked and bonded over BOOKS. Not gossiping about celebrities or frivolous things…but BOOKS. And the way they just seemed so comfortable together even though some of them had never even met face-to-face before! Just a wonderful example of the magic and bonds of sisterhood. Love!

    Two of my favorite BookTubers! Yay! Great trip!
    I just want to say that I started reading Harry Potter in my 40s…yes…40s. Never read it or watched the movies when it first came out. I love the series! I’m not much of a fantasy reader either but I have a wand, I claim Slytherin (that’s what the sorting hat kept giving me so I had to accept it), and I’ve been to Harry Potter World twice. There are messages within the story and it’s just exciting and cozy at the same time.
    Glad you all had a good time. Nice to meet creators new to me.

    • @ShawnaciSchroeder
      @ShawnaciSchroeder  Před 4 měsíci +1

    Watching this video made me want to plan a trip to Gatlinburg for my friends and I because we definitely need something like this! Life is hard and we can all use a soft place to land where we can fully ourselves without fear, shame, or judgement 💜

  • @TheBlackqueen85
    @TheBlackqueen85 Před 4 měsíci +10

    Thank you for opening up. It just made me ball my eyes out. I don’t speak about my feelings. Growing up I didn’t have parents that cared. They were alive and I lived with them but didn’t care. It made me isolate myself. Life been very hard for months. I’m in therapy but at times it doesn’t feel like it’s enough. I lost my sister due to cancer out of nowhere and my marriage hit a bump in the road. A lot of times I don’t feel like I will make it. Thank you for opening up and your kind words.

    • @ShawnaciSchroeder
      @ShawnaciSchroeder  Před 4 měsíci +2

      So so sorry you’re going through this. Just know you’re not alone, I promise. It’s so easy to feel like no one else is struggling, but I think the more we open up and are vulnerable like this the more we will realize that we all are going through hard things. Just know I’m always here to listen 🥹🫶🏽

    @tinawonderfullymade Před 4 měsíci +5

    I absolutely loved every second of this!!! I especially felt ya at the end when you were talking about being isolated and closed in. I keep to myself because of childhood trauma and friend issues. I thank God everyday that I have my husband (he’s my rock & bff). I think that’s why I started posting vids on here because the bookish girlies have been so kind. Thank you for opening up and sharing ❤

Let me just insert myself in the trip please 🤣 no but seriously, it’s so nice to see beautiful black women going through life and enjoying each other’s company while trying new things. I also love and respect you for always being transparent. I know how harsh people can be and I hope that having this kind of community reminds you of how special you are to the world and that your trauma doesn’t take away all the work you’ve put in or the joy you bring to so many people. Literally you’re the best internet friend a girl could have lol. Please never stop being you! ♥️

  • @ErinDarlyn
    @ErinDarlyn Před 4 měsíci +2

    What you said about vulnerability and being open is so relatable.
    It’s so scary to put vulnerable parts of ourselves out there for strangers on the internet or people we don’t know if we can fully trust! I sometimes write or film things and then never post them because people online can be so cruel and I just don’t know if I have the bandwidth to deal with that kind of response. But then I see other people who are being brave and sharing and I respect them so much for it, and I love seeing them find community, kindness, and shared humanity because they were brave and open.
    It’s such a conundrum! There’s wisdom in choosing who to be vulnerable with but also value in being that brave one who speaks.🤷🏻‍♀️

    • @ShawnaciSchroeder
      @ShawnaciSchroeder  Před 4 měsíci

      You’re so so right! I think the more we normalize opening up, the more we will all feel comfortable to do it and have grace for those that aren’t ready to share their lives just yet 🥹

Discovered Kaliliah through you and she is such a joy to watch.

    I just went and subbed to each of the ladies. I love all the themes they do content for. I am trying to follow more black content creators. As someone who is not part of the black community, I want to know more from others' perspectives. I am part of the LGBTQ+ community so the way you said you want to learn from another perspective is how I feel about POC creators. We all have things we can learn from others not part of our community. I'm excited about all the book recs and the other ladies' content! ❤

    This video was SO great! I caught myself smiling so much! 😊
    Thank you for opening up, even if it was just a little. Just that tiny bit you did made me feel less alone with trying to find my footing in life and figure out what I’m gonna do in this life! I’m 32 and living life for the first time really, as I lost my mom December 2022 after caregiving for her full time for 8 years.
    So now I’m out here, living with my dad (yay!), and just finally embracing that I don’t know what’s next and that’s okay! Just having fun with it and seeing what happens.
    Anyway, just checked out Magnolia Parks from Libby for my Kindle and will try Harry Potter again sometime soon (I read the first book on my like… first generation in history smartphone to hide it from my mom back in college cause I wasn’t allowed to read it when I was a tiny human lol).
    Thanks for sharing your life/videos as always!

      Thank you so much for being so vulnerable. I’m so sorry for your loss. Caregiving takes so much space in your heart and time in your life so I’m sure it’s been a big adjustment without your mom that you love so dearly. Proud of you for embracing life now!
      I really hope you enjoy magnolia parks! It’s such a great series that I love so much!!

    ❤❤❤ You guys are friend goals. I follow a couple that are in this girls trip. I love how the book community comes together for things like this. Great bonding and friendships. And the love of books is everything everything ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤ this is 😍 beautiful. We need more trips in the future. Also an idea in the future pick a place where book followers who support you guys can meet up and meet you guys. That would be epic. All the book love would be through the roof . Imagine that..at 51 i love seeing women of color support one another in their love of reading and life. I cant love this video Enough ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💓💓💓💖💖🌺🌺🌻🌻💞💖💓💓💓💓My girl Alex was most definitely missed..

    I just started following you, and I love it. So many things from this video and your other videos and podcast have made me feel not alone and resonate with me. Thank you!
    Quick question- Where did you get the pink puffy tote bag?

    I hope you do get into horror because that's one genre I really like (but not gory stuff) and would want to hear your recommendations

    Never Lie wasn’t my fave by Sister Freida 🙁. I gave it like 3.5. The Housemaid though was EVERYTHING!!! I LOVED IT!

    Hello Beautiful girl! I soooo enjoyed your girl's trip video looked like soooo much fun. You are definitely my comfort creator keep up the awesome work and I truly feel like you are a friend, I also follow Khalilah love her too. Best wishes your way and if you ever need someone to show you how to pack a suitcase call me girl, that was hard to watch from a organize girl!LOL

    • @ShawnaciSchroeder
      @ShawnaciSchroeder  Před 4 měsíci

      Hahaha omg I could definitely use some help because I just smooshed everything into that suitcase. So so glad you love hanging out here! We had the best time

    For a black influencer retreat trip, it sure is quite light. I wonder where Alex was.

    • @ShawnaciSchroeder
      @ShawnaciSchroeder  Před 4 měsíci

      This is not a brand trip. This is a space I create every year for my friends to get together and talk about the industry. In the same way you might get together with your friends on a trip.🤍

    That resort looks fantastic. I'm trying to make myself stay more focused on reading but what do I do? Start watching one of your videos instead and I'm hooked!! You and Khalilah always have such great content and I love your personalities. One thing, though, I know it doesn't make sense, but "Greenwich" is pronounced "Gren-itch". I guess it's a pronunciation that came over from England. 😃

    • @ShawnaciSchroeder
      @ShawnaciSchroeder  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Thanks for sharing this haha!! I had no idea! One thing that helps me to stay focused on reading is to set aside dedicated time for reading before the day starts! I wake up at 5am each day to read before work and it helps so much!

    @Mayareads_ Před 4 měsíci +1

    Shawnaci! 💗I love this! I watched some before work and just finished after it’s currently 2:00 in the morning. Haha! ☺️ But anyway im here with a book recommendation- As Long As The Lemon Trees Grow by Zoulfa Koutah💛💙 Have you read it?!?? It’s YA, it’s sad yet sooo beautiful. I try to diversify my reads as well and that was one that I truly enjoyed last yr and I was listening to you all talk about how books change you and make you look at the world differently- this book really does that. Consider it for one of your 12 out of norm books this yr. …I’m going to have to get Eleanor Oliphant -Khalilah has been hyping it up waaayy too long I’m convinced I should read it now! Haha! 😂
    Sending Love 💕 💞
