I love the part where Skylar realized that Shaye being herself gave Skylar permission to totally be himself.
Agreed 🎯
Pretty powerful.
What is Skylar ?
@@joangelaparker2845 her brother 🎈
I knew it!!!!
I am a strong Christian woman who values and appreciates you and your authentic self. I share your video with my kids to teach them about God's love for all people. Your videos and family are beautiful.
This is true Christianity ❤ May god bless you
I'm an atheist and I love your post!
Beautifully said, I would add that God created each and every one of us, perfect in their own unique way.
You can love people without accepting their sins.
sandrabrosier5216,
Thinking you might be confused by patriarchal religious dogma as to what is a sin! You are a spiritual being having a human experience, you have come into this realm for growth to be a better soul (or not), it's totally up to you. Maybe you should take some time here in UA-cam to study the thousands who have experienced NDE's, you could expand your understanding and consciousness of what and who we really are. Good Luck
You have no clue how much doing these types of videos are going to pave the pathway for so many others. I’m so happy for you being able to be YOU.
That is so true. Exponential impact!
Thanks for being you Shaye! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
You two are amazing. Thank you for sharing your story ❤
Thank you both for being you and doing what makes you both happy at the end of the days to come. . Life to short to not be you. Sending love and hugs from Florida 🩷
Omg! I had no idea that you two were siblings 🤦♀️ I just thought you were friends growing up. This was so beautifully heartbreaking by the way. All the support and love to you both
Sweet Shay. I have no idea why the algorithm gods put this particular video in my rotation today. I have watched a couple of Skylar’s videos, so I recognized him talking to this beautiful woman (you) and decided to watch. I am a sixty something wife mother & grandmother. I am also a “recovering Baptist” lol. The God that I have come to know, does not make mistakes and he/she/they say we are all created in “his” image. What a wonderful story you have to share.
This is such a profound and weight-lifting conversation to witness. I am getting emotional watching you both share truths with one another and validate each other’s journeys. This is unconditional love. This is God’s love.
As someone who transitioned 20 years ago, this reminded me of my own experience with my family. My oldest brother (who died this past February) was my biggest supporter. Thanks for sharing your experiences with Skyler.
Sorry for your loss!
Thank you for sharing this journey with us and be who you are ❤take care 🙂
Sorry for your loss, it's hard to lose a sibling much less one that you were so close to. I hope you know that he is now you're special angel that is always with you.

“They come into this world full of love and only learn to hate”. Never were truer words spoken.
Raised in Eastern Idaho and feel all of this in the LDS community. You have a huge cheerleader in me on your journey. What a great brother.
Shaye, coming from me, a family member, I feel like I know you far more now than before you transitioned. And I’m so happy to see you happy and yourself! Love you
If people say my wife and I are going to hell for being gay, I just say “at least all our friends will be there” ❤️🇬🇧🏳️🌈
And chances are some of those same people will be there too!
I LOVE THIS COMBINATION of Skyler & Shay! You should start a PODCAST together! I’ve been following 5/2 LOVE for five years now (one of my favs) and recently fell onto Great Scotts and loving your content. THANKS to you both for this honest, vulnerable and important chat today!
“Yeah, Chuckina” had me cackling
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences! Lots of love to both of you from a 73-year old woman who was brought up in the Mormon church! ❤ I left the church in my early teens because of the way the members treated non-complying members, and non-members. I understand that there have been changes, but their stance on LGBTQIA+ is not acceptable to me - a straight ally of LGBTQIA+
I knew you were awakening Skylar, I could see it and felt. Once you are awake, you can't go back. God or universe does not judge. I'm so happy with both of you. Life is going to be so different. I got there through meditation. ❤❤❤
Shaye - your heart is so beautiful and your outside is matching the beauty more and more every day. I so admire your courage to talk about the painful parts of your journey. In doing so, you are a catalyst in changing our world for the better. 🌈
Conversations like this are too rare. I loved everything about it. Thanks for sharing with so much vulnerability. The world needs more of that and of you both!
Thank you for this video and I highly recommend that you offer yourself up for some seminars to help families go through the changes that you and your family and friends are going through. I think this would be extremely helpful.
Thank you for being so vulnerable during this very emotional discussion. The love and care you have for each other really shows. ❤️
I was hoping this video would happen but I never wanted to straight up ask. I’m glad you two did this 💗 thank you for being vulnerable and sharing!
Wow this conversation was so beautiful, so honest and raw. I learned so much. Thank you for sharing. I know that you know that by talking about your journey so openly will help others. As for Skylar… what a great brother you have. Awesome. Much love from London England ❤️👏👏🥰
What a beautiful, honest conversation. Seeing true examples of leaving conformity and how that doesn’t mean you’ve “gone to the dark side”. That was something that left me just going through the motions for so long. I’m on the other side now, but I wish a video similar to this had been available all those years ago. ❤️
I couldn't help but notice the 'I'm on the other side now' bit... And that the comment was edited (the post says from 4 mths ago). I don't know if this means you have passed on and someone has edited it on your behalf 😢 If you have passed on OG .. I hope you're at peace ♥️ love from Australia
@@nicksiii I’m still here and doing well! I just meant that I’ve been through the thick of it. Leaving the comfortability of blending in and doing as expected was not easy. For many, that road is the scary part, but it can get better.
I appreciate both of you talking about these sensitive subjects. When you spoke of women/girls having so many restrictions it really struck a chord with me. Yes, definitely, being an individual was not encouraged, and there was a definite dress code. I remember once in church, in the chapel, in front of the congregation, another teenager walked up to the pew where my family sat and put her sweater over my teenage daughters' shoulders because she had on a modest but sleeveless blouse, much like Shaye has on today. It was so embarrassing my daughter never went back to church.
Not sure if you’ve addressed this already but I’m super curious of how your parents have been handling this transition?
Same !
Thank you for opening up and sharing your journey with us. I am so happy to see that you have such a wonderful support system close to you. Your brother seems like a great person.
I was drawn so intently into this conversation. It was so real, so honest and so natural. I wish you both the strength to travel along your destined paths and peace of mind. Thank you for sharing your stories.
It's difficult to put into words how powerful this video is. Thank you to Shay and Skyler for sharing a big part of yourselves on camera. This video is very powerful and likely one that I will share with friends who are struggling with gender, faith or authenticity. You both deserve all the happiness in the world.
Thank you for this video! Seeing your pain, when you remember the hard parts and seeing the joy and happiness you have now, it touches my heart ❤
THANK YOU BOTH S O much.
I am listening again after I just finished. This is so healing for me.
Thank you all SO much.
As your peer from southern Utah who has gone through my own transition out of the LDS church (and who has named all my manat children with names
Like your mother did-lol) I want to say thank you. My journey has been of a similar time frame and your videos lately have been a lifeline of courage and love and genuine kindness. Thank you. ❤️☀️
Love, love, love this chat. Support, love and understanding is all anyone could ever ask for. Bucket loads of all of it in this video. 100% agree about the kids. They’re so accepting, it’s everyone else who can cause them pain and confusion.
This video is all about love, courage,respect, and empathy ❤
Shaye you go GRRRLLLL!!! So happy for you that you have been able to realize your true self and that you have a supportive partner to share the journey with. Good luck and all the blessings to you and your family!
So much to say! Your story resonates with me so much. Our daughter came out to us and that was the switch that allowed us to see the world the way we wanted. Deconstruction is so very hard but so worth it. We are not broken, we are worthy of a beautiful life!❤❤❤
This was really beautiful to watch! As a formerly Catholic lesbian- this resonated on many levels, especially around shame. It gave me some hope for future improved relationships within my own family. And I will definitely be looking into the plant medicine. Super interesting discussion! Thank you for sharing.
I have followed Skylar for many years and that is how I was lead to your channel. I admire you Shaye for putting your story out there for the world to see, it certainly helps me to continue to grow in understanding and knowledge. You are beautiful inside and out. 🙂
What a beautiful video!! Thank you for your vulnerability ❤
Beautiful. Vulnerable, Transparent, Courageous, Honest, Inspiring and therapeutic for me on so many levels. So much appreciation for what both you have shared here for others to see. You have helped so many by this honest true to the Self open dialogue and discussion. I will rewatch this to soak more of it up. Thank You So Much . ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love you both! Thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing your stories with the world! You are beautiful, wonderful Human Beings!❤
This video made me feel happy and so filled with love and gratitude! I respect and admire both of you! Keep sharing your story as it gives me such hope:)
This is so amazing. Everyone wants the same thing at the core- to be happy, loved, seen, heard, recognized - im so grateful you’re able to have all of that in speaking out.
Thank you both for sharing such an amazing, open, honest conversation. I really appreciate it more than you know. Proud of you both.
What a wonderful, awe inspiring, raw, emotional, etc video. Shay - I know how hard it was for you to come out to your family and how much you struggled for all those years knowing that you were “different” and how unhappy you were during those years. My oldest (now 43 yrs) came out as Non-Binary last year and it was something I had to wrap my head around (not that he came out, but I had never heard of Non-Binary before). It was only then that they talked about their struggles of never feeling like they fit in as being “normal” in their own body. They have been so much happier since they have come out. When they decided to tell my side of the family, they received so many words of support and encouragement. Did some of my siblings have questions - absolutely (for the most part, their cousins understood), but they have all embraced them. Cade (was Chad and is changing their name to Cadence) has only seen a few of the family members since they came out to them last March because we are kind of all spread out distance wise), but I know that Cade will be embraced and is still loved and accepted by them all.
Hearing about how much the both of you have struggled with your own individual identities through the years brought tears to my eyes. Hearing about your individual journey’s helped me more to realize the journey my son has been on (both emotionally due to trauma from their past and with coming out). Thank you for being open and honest with us - I know that it couldn’t have been easy. Much love to both of you and your families
🌈❤🧡💛💚💙
'If this is who I am, send me to hell.'
This made me break down. 😭 Shaye, you should be so incredibly proud of yourself. You took the pivotal, profound leap into truth. It's a privilege to have been able to see it. ❤
Also, love hearing about your positive experience with plant medicine. 🪴🍄❤
I relate to both of you so much in terms of trauma that comes from being raised in a church. I’m so happy seeing people coming out and being bold in their own self. Proud of you both for spreading the love and speaking out.
This is so emotional. What a fantastic relationship. It's great that you support each other and you've been through a lot. Also, I love both names of Skylar and Shaye. I gave my child my middle name.
Great video.
This what real family is all about. Unconditional love ❤️ thank you for sharing this.
You are so blessed to have such a compassionate and empathetic brother. 💞And Shaye, I am so proud of you for having the strength and courage to be your authentic self and that you are able to live life to its fullest with your incredible wife Amanda and your amazing children. 💞
The love that just radiates from every single person I’ve seen on this channel is truly palpable. I just found your channel last night and I’ve watched 4-5 vids already. I too was raised LDS in Utah. I’m a straight cis woman in my 60’s who left the religion over 40 yrs ago, and I’ve struggled with the judgement from extended family because of it. You all are a breath of fresh air. You do the hard work and then share it, I’ll bet there are thousands of people who gain from your willingness to share
Shay you are beautiful inside and out! Skyler, I'm so glad you're a supportive big brother!!
Sending you both so much love!
Thank you for opening yourselves up to being so vulnerable like this. i appreciate your honesty and I feel our being educated about your life journeys helps us understand and in turn understand others.
You are both beautiful individuals. Go forth and let your light shine!
Your dialog is beautiful and truthful beyond words. Just LOVE. Thank you sooooooo much for sharing and by that lightening up our world 💫🌈💚
"Being true to myself is where I found God" - Exactly! It's a simple but profound truth for everyone. Loved this conversation Skylar and Shaye!
What a beautiful video from two loving and caring siblings. You are both so lucky to have such a close bond. Looking forward to more of your videos together.. ❤
Such a powerful video!! Thank you so much for sharing your hearts with us!! ❤
This is such a beautiful, authentic and loving conversation between siblings. It really meant a lot to me to watch you talk with each other. I’m so glad I stayed up late to watch the whole thing.
I had been introduced to the Scotts through Five Two Love and more recently found Great Scotts. I truly appreciate your willingness to let us in on your journey. I’ve never been LDS or even religious but I’ve been also going through a faith expansion…unlearning and understanding all at the same time. This type of conversation completely affirms the divinity I know is within us all. You and your families are so beautiful! Thank you.
This was so enlightening. Your honesty and relationship is eye opening. I have wondered a lot about how one lives through these changes. So many horrible fearful people that condemn without trying to understand, hurt someone like Shaye and her family. God loves us all.
What a pleasant surprise to find this video on my home page! Hello Shaye, I just met you on Skylars channel, I especially loved the outtakes at the end because we got to see the real you. This is a beautiful video of you two talking about finding yourselves as you both step into the next chapter of this life's journey, and I'm impressed especially because of your Mormon background. I am so looking forward to more about how you have learned to embrace life by being true to you. Thank you for sharing!
So proud of you Shaye and Skylar…..two incredible and insightful human beings. ❤️
You two are the best! Thank for sharing I know it was not easy. Now that you have that hard part out of the way I hope to have more vlogs of you together. You have a great relationship and can put a smile on a lot of people’s faces.
The sibling bond that the two of you share is truly unbelievable and strongly unbreakable. I love the Scott families you both have created; you are living your truth and living by our Lord’s teachings of love, forgiveness and acceptance. 💕💕
Thank you so so much for educating, and helping us to understand. Love, light, and peace to your families ❤
Wow, this video was such a cool introduction to Skylar for me! I'll have to watch his channel too now. Shaye, if you read this, thank you for talking about growing up thinking you were the only one in the world experiencing (what you now know to be...) gender dysphoria. (I saw that in your MS interview too.) I realized I grew up thinking I was the only one in the world experiencing (what I now know to be...) neurodivergence, and so you inadvertently helped me be more compassionate/understanding toward past-me. Above all, thank you for sharing your amazing, beautiful, wise self!
I loved both of your channels for a long time, but I love them even more now 🤍 seeing you both chase authenticity and the joy in it, is beautiful
Your stories are amazing. I've been watching you both and I'm amazed at your strengths and love. Please keep growing! We stopped going to church after our trans daughter came out to us.
Excellent! Wow! Brave! Courageous! The words in my mind. I related as being raised & lived & was active in The Catholic Church, yet I have felt that I did " graduate" & moved on to bring Christ to others in His Ways that I was taught. Thank you so much. 💓 😊
You are inspiring to listen to, because many of us have something like this. Or at least I did and yet not all of us can share it, but like most other recovery your journey helps us. Amanda and your vulnerability to sit out and reveal is breathtaking. You clearly have support.
I love you!! Thank you, for enlightening so many of us. I love that, GO FORTH AND SLAY IT!!!!❤❤
This video just helped me clear my head on how i felt about following skylar's journeh still, i didnt know where he stood on things and i didnt know that Shaye had come out as trans and now i can confidently say, im a huge supporter of Skylar and now Shaye. I loved hearing your journey and being so open and honest. Shaye i have only ever seen one video of yours before this and it was before your transition so i had no idea, but i am so happy for you and proud of you for being your genuine self. I look forward to more content from the both of you.
Beautiful video, and I applaude both of you for your courage to create it and share it. There are so many great points and truths in it that will surely help everyone learn about their own journey to live their own true life.
Thanks for sharing your vulnerability, courage & hearts. Truth is Beautiful!
Oh, I have waited so long for this video. Love to all of you
I just love seeing people who live their lives in authenticity of who they really are!
I am just so incredibly proud and in awe of you both for your raw honesty of your individual journeys, wow! 💕
What a beautiful conversation with two divine & genuinely loving people. The world needs more of this. ❤❤❤
Ah…Richard Rohr! Life changing author. Thank you so much for being authentically real. You are both amazing.
You both are a light in this world! Thank you for your your courage and Wisdom❤
Thank you all for making this video. It’s easy to see the love you share between you. Very interesting about the “ plant medicine “ . Seems that it can be very very helpful for people. Following you both for years now,and will continue. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
I am 65 years young, and you are helping me find myself. I am not transgender, BUT I have always been looking for the REAL ME. I have been controlled and manipulated for 45 years of marriage. These last few years I have been looking for my true self. I have not found her yet, BUT the journey is REAL. Thank you both for this incredible wonderful video 🤗 ❤️ Much love from Green 🌲Ohio 😊
This is a beautiful video! Acceptance, love, and support are the most important things you can give to someone. Siblings may get on your nerves sometimes, but I feel they can understand the true you better than anyone because of the bond that’s there. We are never too old to stop learning and grow! You’re both great and beautiful people and your story is helping so many people in many many many different ways 💗💓💞
i enjoyed this so so much. i found your channel through skyler's many years ago, and watching your transition has been amazing. i know that i am just a random stranger on the internet, but i admire both of you so very much. thank you for sharing with us, you are both so incredibly strong
I love you both! Thank you for being so open and sharing your life with us
Thanks for sharing, i think being ones genuine self, no matter how that looks, is so refreshing. The amount of hate in this world is just sad, and its true children are pure, its how there raised that creates the divide, being yourself, is the best gift you can give yourself. ❤
Thank you both x it’s helped me see my own trauma and healing n journey in a different light 🙏❤️
Lots of love to both of you! What a great video! 🥰
Absolutely amazing and so important and I am so proud of you both. My heart is overflowing with care and love. Thank you both, so very much.
Could you talk more about that clinic and plant based med you took? PTSD is something that seems very hard to conquer in talk therapy or EMDR. I’d be very interested in a video on that - perhaps with your physician friend who runs the clinic to answer questions?
Thanks again for this brave and important video.
☮️❤️🌷
You two are such special people! I smiled through most of this video. The warmth of your love for each other shines. I got a good laugh at "Chuckita" too haha, quick witted you are! :) Happy Holidays to you all!
❤️It's your honesty, and this love, that will heal those raw wounds.
Thankyou both, for counselling thousands with this video❤️
First. That was a beautiful conversation.
Second. Thank you for being respectful about how you talk about the church even though you have left the church.
Third. God loves you both so much. Mo matter what.
Fourth. I love how you mentioned Ketamine. After my attempted suicide, Ketamine helped me heal in so many ways.
Thank you for sharing your stories. I wish I was as close to my siblings as the two of you are. That is a beautiful gift
Merry Christmas!
This is so beautiful. I’m also raised LDS. I’m lesbian. I’m single and childless. I’m at the point where I go to church for the social aspect because I literally have no life or friends outside of it. I’m also a recovering alcoholic and addict. Go figure with all of the self-hate I experienced growing up. I’ve been in denial for so long. Thank you for having this conversation. This is going to help so many others like you, and like me. The church is supposed to be so good and accepting and loving yet I feel like a total outsider. I’m just so grateful to you both for sharing this.
God bless both of you and your families.
Thank you, Shaye and Skyler! Truly beautiful inside and out.
OH MY GOD! You are both the most INCREDIBLE, beautiful souls! And let's not forget about Amanda. I am so grateful that you have decided to share your incredible journey to self discovery, enlightenment, and the incredible love you have found on your journey. I hope you all realize the amazing message you are sharing with the world with every incredible interview. It goes beyond our wildest dreams. Thank you for sharing, and thank your for sharing your journey. You are all amazing!
I don't usually comment on videos ever but I'd just like to say .. WOW .. thankyou both for being your true selves and loving eachother
People are people.. it's that simple. Live your truest and best lives ❤
You both are amazing finding your true selves and finding your own connection with God is so important!❤
Love listening to you both talk about your experiences and the way you view life. You will inspire others. So much of what is in our internal talk doesn't need to exist when it's causing so much pain. We do no one including our selves any service continuing that narrative. People will always find ways to hate what they don't understand and haven't allowed themselves the opportunity to evaluate why those thoughts even exist to begin with. Beautiful ❣️
Shaye, i have to say I am incredibly proud of you. I’ve followed skyler for awhile and had no idea your channel existed until the video you guys made where you helped him shop for clothes. I hate to admit that I judged you before I watched any of your videos, but now I can see how beautiful of a person you really are and it’s taught me to not judge people just because they are different from you. Please continue to spread your light.
P.s. we share the same name and I can’t think of anyone cooler to share my name with!
I could add so much- but there’s so much personal reflection that wouldn’t be taking place for me & others had you both not been so vulnerable and transparent. You stayed alive for a bigger purpose than you could possibly imagine. You are changing lives nust because you’re being you and being supported.
You two are wonderful! Thanks for sharing ❤️
