Hello dimedime222,


You may try toggling off Find My in Settings > [your name] > Find My. Then wait a full 60 seconds. During that time period force the Find My app, the Messages app, and the Settings app to close: Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support


After the 60 seconds have passed head back to Settings > [your name] > Find My, and re-enable Find My. Go ahead and then try to share your location once again and see if it works well now.


Cheers.
