Never Give Up

Shaun Bradford

Here’s today’s Facebook memory from my Nutrition with LaShaundreaB page:

Y’all, I needed to see this memory today. Earlier, I saw where Tabitha Brown had shared a couple of posts from years ago, years before she became well known. One of her messages was, “Never stop DREAMING!!” She shared it on March 1, 2011, thirteen years ago!

As I said, I needed to see this memory today. Y’all, I haven’t shared any food pictures or made any cooking videos in months. Honestly, I had decided to let that dream go. I felt like it was taking too much time and focus away from things that I should have been focusing on. Same with drawing. Whew. I have so many decisions to make. Do I follow my passions now, or put them off until later? I really wish I was superwoman and could do it all. Life…

Here’s the video that I had made showing me preparing the salad. I had shared it as a Facebook reel, but for some reason the link won’t work on here. And for some crazy reason I didn’t share it on Instagram. Anyhoo…here’s the YouTube short.

March 2, 2023

Yeah… I definitely needed to see this today. God is so good. As Tabitha said all those years ago, we should never stop dreaming. She didn’t and now she’s living in hers.

When I tell you Year50 is doing a number on me! But it is what I asked for, right? If I want the next 50+ to be different, I have to do something different. Which means I have to focus on what I desire the next 50 years to be like, and can’t continue doing what was comfortable the last 50.

Okay, that’s all. Just felt like sharing.

Keep going! It will happen!!♥️

Unconditional Love Begins Within

Shaun Bradford

Happy Self-Love Saturday!

I spent decades yearning for someone to love me for me. To love all of me unconditionally. To love me not only when I was at my best, but when I was at my worst—insecure, unmotivated, feeling ugly, and unsure of myself. To love me when I did not make the best decisions. To love me through both good and bad times. Just to love me.

Well, I have finally realized and accepted I am that person I spent years searching for. I had to learn to love myself not only when I was up, but also when I was down. Had to learn to stop criticizing and beating myself up over mistakes and bad decisions. Yeah, I had to love and accept all of me.

I am so very thankful I finally—took forever—found me.♥️ ~ Shaun

You deserve unconditional love, and there is no better person to give it to you than yourself.♥️

Shaun Bradford
We are history in the making.

Keep shining.

Keep glowing.

Keep loving.

Keep sowing.

Through you, life grows.

You were not meant to carry the world on your shoulders, yet you do. It is what you do without a second thought. Your love and nurturing is invaluable.

This month, we celebrate all of the strong, brilliant and tenacious women who paved the way for us to live in our strengths and truth. This month we celebrate YOU!♥️

Expect Great Things To Happen

Shaun Bradford
Look and think beyond what you see. Great things are already happening. Yes, they are ALREADY happening and will continue to happen!♥️

Yes, my first post for today has the same message. Smile. After sharing it here and across my social media platforms, I actually felt the message. It’s one thing to speak/say it and another to feel it. Well, I felt and still feel it, so I am sharing it…again.

Expect great things to happen! Expect it with all your heart and soul. Block the thoughts that you’re only psyching yourself up for disappointment. Baby nawl! NOT TODAY!! From here on out, despite our current situation or what we currently feel and see—keep hope and optimism flowing—great things will happen. Let’s intentionally expect them to happen. Just like I truly believe love conquers all, hope does also. Let’s fill the atmosphere with hope.

Love you!♥️

Shaun

P.S. Couldn’t wait until my schedule time to share. Had to share it now. Listen, God is working and moving. Let’s move with Him.

Wait with expectation!

Hello March: I Am Expecting Great Things To Happen

Shaun Bradford

Could not decide between the two memories so I am sharing both.

Hello March!🌷
New Month
New Blessings
Wishing you a month of peace, love, happiness and blessings.♥️

March 1, 2022

New Day.
New Month.
Never lower your expectations. Always expect something wonderful to happen!🌸

Never stop expecting great things to happen even when you can’t see or feel anything happening. There was a time when I had stopped expecting anything at all. I had lost all hope. So grateful that time was short lived.

Today, I am expecting great things happen because I know God loves me. I can never lose hope again. Not on this side of 50. I have witnessed too many great things happen in my life and for others to believe I have already received and/or experienced all life has to offer. I know there is so much more to come.

Hello March! I am expecting great things to happen.♥️
