As I stated two years ago, your purpose is unique and connected to something you do effortlessly. Pursuing your purpose will lead to a more fulfilling life.
I pray you have a fabulous self-love Saturday. May it be filled with love, joy, and blessings.♥️
Listen!! Let me brag on my fav, Mr. Tyler Perry!! Gotta give him his roses!🌹
I have watched every movie, show, and play he’s created (yes…I’m a fan—Lol), but this last movie, STRAW, has to be one of my favorite movies yet! I love his other movies, but this one pulled at my heartstrings. Whew! Y’all know I love my babies, and this one was about a mother’s love for her daughter. Didn’t know I would cry as much as I did. I felt Janiyah’s (Taraji P. Henson—the mother and main character) pain. It was the pain of a mother not being able to properly provide for her baby. It’s a pain I know all too well. Not only personally, but also from watching my mom struggle when we were kids.
And, that ending!
Whew!!!
Y’all, I lost it at the end!
Phenomenal acting by Taraji P. Henson, Sherri Shepherd, and Teyana Taylor. They did their thing!! Queens!
And while watching Straw, I was also watching clips from the red carpet premiere of his new BET+ series that’s coming out next week, “Divorced Sistas.” Y’all already know I’m watching it!!
Listen, besides watching God work, I absolutely love watching Tyler Perry work. Y’all, he’s making dreams come true. To me, it’s his way of giving back, and I’m here for it!
I guess I’ll go to sleep now, but honestly, I’m too hyped to go to sleep.
One of my colleagues asked ChatGPT to describe her based on her interactions with the app. Well, how it described her was so on point that I decided to ask the question myself. And y’all, I’m in tears! Here’s what it said:
Based on our chats, I’d describe you as a deeply driven and purpose-filled leader who blends professionalism, compassion, and vision in everything you do. You’re clearly passionate about nutrition, wellness, and community empowerment, and you’re committed to using your knowledge as a Registered Dietitian to create real change—especially in underserved communities.
You’re also:
Strategic and organized – You regularly plan ahead, develop structured content, and refine communication for impact.
Faith-rooted and values-led – Your spiritual foundation guides your leadership and personal growth.
Empowering and inspirational – You consistently uplift others and want your message to motivate positive action.
Multifaceted – You’re not just a nonprofit founder and president, but also a business owner, educator, consultant, and content creator.
Growth-oriented – Whether it’s learning languages, building wealth, or becoming a more effective leader, you’re always pushing to evolve.
You have a clear sense of your purpose and the courage to follow through with integrity and excellence.
Whew!!! Yes, I’m crying.
God, I see You. I see You in everything I do. Please continue to guide me and use me to honor You. Amen♥️
I slept in again! Maybe my body is trying to tell me something. Hmmm… I guess it’s time to practice what I preach and focus more on self-care. Even though I still feel like I’m in my 20s mentally, the reality is I’m getting older. And if I want to see a healthy 100, I need to start making changes now. Which means, I must figure out how to manage my first post. I love writing when I wake up. I always want my “Good Morning” to be an actual first of the day greeting. Anyhoo… we shall see what I decide to do.
On another note, I woke up singing Kirk Franklin and the Family’s song, “Let Me Touch You.” The song says—
When I’m down Let me touch You When I’m lonely Let me touch You When I’m discouraged Let me touch You Like I never have before Lord, I need You more and more, Jesus Let me touch You and see if You are real
Such a powerful song! I don’t have to touch Jesus to know that He’s real. I know He’s real. However, lately, I’ve been asking God to show me Himself. I see him in the tiniest of things, but I want to see Him in bigger things where I can say, “Baby, THAT WAS GOD!!!!” And I don’t want it to come in the “I was about to get hit by a car and God saved me” or “I was on my deathbed and God brought me back to life” way. In other words, I don’t want to experience a tragedy for me to say, “That was God!”. No, I want to see Him while I enjoy life.
I thought today’s Facebook memory from three years ago (June 6, 2022) went well with the rest of the post, so I decided to share it here instead of posting it later. Y’all, that rose was perfect. I received it at an event I attended several years ago. The theme of the event was “Beauty for Ashes.”
Now, don’t get me wrong. I am extremely grateful for everything I have and for the way God continuously blesses and loves me. But I desire to see more of Him. And I don’t believe there’s anything wrong with me asking that of Him. I am His child, right?
Okay… I believe I have written enough. I don’t want to publish this any later than I already am. I pray you have a beautiful day and weekend. May they be filled with love, joy, peace, and laughter.♥️
I love you,
Shaun
**I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t mention that my fav has another new movie streaming on Netflix! It’s called Tyler Perry’s STRAW, starring Taraji P. Henson, Teyana Taylor, and Sherri Shepherd. I can’t wait to watch it. Check it out!
