You Are Not Alone

During this time of uncertainty, we must remember that we are not alone. WE are in this together.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

When I originally shared this as an IG story, I shared it with Michael Jackson’s song, “You Are Not Alone.” I can’t believe Michael and Lisa Marie are both gone.😔

What If…

What if…

Thanking God for keeping and blessing me through every decision I’ve made—good and bad. Thanking Him for His protection from things I didn’t know I needed protecting from. Thanking Him for guiding my steps to keep me on track when I venture off. Thanking Him for surrounding me with His love, mercy, and grace.

I am thankful, grateful, and beyond blessed. Amen ~Shaun♥️

Focus On What You Have

Shaun Bradford

A few days ago, God had to remind me once again to stay focused on what I already have, not what I don’t have or believe I need. If you have been following me for a few years, you’ll know I am forever doing something new. This week, God reminded me of all the “new” things I had created and needed to revisit. One was my culinary nutrition project/venture. The last time I had been actively creating in that space was in 2023.

While downloading videos from TikTok, I came across videos I had shared on August 24, 2022 (this date is significant) about my frustration with trying to create a YouTube video. One was the before, and the other was the after. This led me to revisit that particular video. After I made it, I decided to unlist it after only a few days of it being public. For some reason, I hated that video. Well, after rewatching it the other day, I made it public again. Then, I shared it on my Facebook pages.

Y’all, it wasn’t until I shared it on another page this morning that I realized I created it on August 24, 2022. On the morning of August 27, 2022, my brother found my mom unconscious. She didn’t wake until almost a week later, with most of her hearing gone and no use of her right (dominant) arm. For those who don’t know, she suffered from paraplegia (at that time, 24 years). So, I had made plans to officially launch Nutrition with LaShaundreaB, and then had to pause everything to care for her—which I will never regret. Whew! So many memories of that time…

Anyway, I’m finally working on Nutrition with LaShaundreaB again. I’m focusing on what I already have. Here is the link to my once-hidden video. When I tell you the things I was so self-conscious about back then don’t bother me anymore. Baby, this is me! And I truly love ME!🥰 ~Shaun
