Hi there T - B0ne.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities and thanks for asking about how to share playlists you've made in Apple Music with friends and family. I love sharing playlists and I'll be happy to help you.

Create and share playlists
You can make your playlists public and send them to friends.
When you create a playlist, make sure to turn on "Show on My Profile and in Search" to make your playlist public. When you make a playlist public, people can find it using Search.
You can send your playlists to friends through Messages, Mail, Twitter, Facebook, using AirDrop, and more. To share a playlist, find the playlist that you want to share, then follow these steps:
- On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Tap
, then Share Playlist
.
- On your Mac or PC: Click
, then Share Playlist.
- On your Android phone, tap the Share icon
to see your sharing options.
When you choose how you want to share your playlist, a new window opens in the app that you chose and a link to your playlist appears. In some apps, you can add a message before sending your playlist.
I think you're on the right track, but in order to share a playlist you must make it public. Please let me know that this resolved your issue.
Take care.
