Life is moving right along and I’m moving right along with it. I’m happy. I’m blessed. I’m grateful. I’m humbled. I’m content. I’m at peace. And I’m loved.

As I’ve said before, I’m truly loving this space I’m in. According to my journals, it’s taken me decades to get here, but I’m finally here. And it’s such a wonderful feeling! I don’t ever want to go back to where I was or the way things were.

As the song says, “This joy that I have, the world didn’t give it to me… This peace that I have, the world didn’t give it to me. The world didn’t give it and the world can’t take it away.” Amen

Thank You, Lord, for guiding me through the tough times. For giving me hope when I was hopeless. And for granting me peace like no other. Amen

Thanks for reading! I pray that you’ve also found peace, contentment, love and joy. Be Blessed

Believe. It’s Already Done!

Believe it’s already done.
OR.. Believe. It’s already done. Listen, that period makes a difference. It’s assurance that whatever you’re believing for IS already done. You may not see it yet, but it’s done. So stop worrying and start living. It’s done! ~ Shaun

Hello Sunday

Last week marked the one year anniversary of LaShaundreaB, LLC. For some reason I didn’t celebrate. Actually, the date snuck up on me and I didn’t have time to celebrate. I was too focused on other things. Well, since every entrepreneur I’ve listened to over the past few years has encouraged celebrating milestones, even the small ones, I may still celebrate. I mean, it really is significant because I didn’t give up. I didn’t breakdown and return to the corporate world. No, I rolled with the punches and made it through. So, yes, a celebration is warranted!

Happy One Year Anniversary, LaShaundreaB, LLC! Shaun, I’m so proud of you. XOXO (Self Love)

By the way, Nutrition with LaShaundreaB will be launching soon!

Sneak peek:

Fun Fact: My mom gifted me the induction cooktop over 10 years ago so that I could do cooking demonstrations. Yesterday was my first time opening it. It wasn’t because I didn’t appreciate it, but never had a need to use it. Well, now I do. It really is all about timing. See, God already knew what I needed long before I knew I would need it. Grateful. Thank you, Momma!♥️

“Move the immovable. Break the unbreakable. God, we believe. We believe for it.” CeCe Winans’ Believe for It

This song has been stuck in my head for well over a week now. Just can’t shake it. Honestly, I’m not sure what I’m believing for but my soul knows. Maybe it’s something that I’ve given up on that my spirit is fighting for. They say the Holy Spirit will intervene on our behalf. Perhaps this is what’s happening. Whatever it is I guess I’ll believe for it too.

So yesterday morning, as I was looking in the mirror, I had one of my “Aha” moments. While attempting to do something with my hair, I looked at myself and said, “I got you. I got you, Shaun.” Y’all, at that moment something clicked. It was like I finally realized I was fully responsible for my own well-being. Even though I’ve known this forever – been totally responsible for myself and well-being for about 30 years now – I have never taken the time to fully understand what that entailed. Yet, in that split second, it dawned on me that I.. yes, me.. am responsible for protecting, supporting, encouraging and loving myself. I.. yes, Shaun.. am responsible for ensuring I live my BEST life. Yes, it’s on me, solely on me.

Perhaps what my soul is believing for is tied to me believing in myself and loving myself like I’ve never done before. That the only way I can live my best life is to care for myself like I care for my babies. To want for myself the same things I want for them. As many of you know, my son will be graduating in one month. As I’m trying to prepare him for this new wave of freedom he’s about to experience, I’m also preparing myself as well. It’s been about 30 years since I last rolled solo. Anxious to see what lies ahead. Hopeful

Anyhoo.. I’ll end here. I pray my soul receives whatever it’s believing for. It’s a little after 4:30 AM so I’m going to publish this and try to go back to sleep. I’m not ready for my day to start.

Be Blessed

Shaun
