My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Life happens. Go with the flow.
While reading one of my fellow bloggers’ posts—Wynne Leon (Surprised by Joy)—I saw this quote and it spoke to my soul. If you know me, just about everything speaks to my heart, soul, and/or spirit. Smile. Well, I felt this one. For me, it captures the way I feel about peace, joy, love, and freedom. Once you’ve tasted them, you’ll forever want more. It’s where I am in life, today; and I am so loving this space.♥️

Good Morning!☀️
There are many things that can hold us back, but sometimes we’re the ones holding ourselves back. When I used to hear people say this, I would be like, “They just don’t understand,” “They have support,” “They didn’t have the struggles I did.” And those statements were valid and very real at the time. I felt them wholeheartedly.
Well, a few years before I decided to take my official leap into the entrepreneurial world, I had a brief conversation with international motivational speaker, Dr. Cheryl Wood, about my aspirations for my future. When asked why I wasn’t already pursuing them fully, I listed all kinds of excuses. She just listened and when I finished she said, “When you’re ready, you’ll do it.” She said she heard the excuses, but whenever I was ready, the excuses wouldn’t matter. Honestly, I thought she couldn’t relate. She was married. I was going through a divorce. She had someone to fall back on. I had no one.
Then, in 2021, while sitting at my desk working my 9-5, I decided I was ready. I still wasn’t married. Didn’t have anyone to support me. However, I knew with all my being and heart I was ready. That’s when I took the leap and never looked back.
Now, here I am nearly four years later, still no husband or extra support, and without any regrets. Y’all, I’m finally doing what I love. It may not look like what I envisioned, but it surely does feel like everything I imagined. Now, don’t get me wrong, life isn’t a cakewalk. I still struggle at times, but it’s different. Today, I don’t mind enduring the difficult times because I know without a doubt God’s got my back. Also, as I mentioned earlier, I am finally doing what I love.
Here’s what I shared 10 years ago—the Facebook memory that prompted this post.
The caption on the picture says it all, everything that was holding me back was all in my head. My mindset had to change, first. Then, I changed.
When I tell you God is so good. I am so grateful He loves me like He does. Hands down, I am truly, truly blessed.
Well, that’s it for now. Thanks for reading.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
List three jobs you’d consider pursuing if money didn’t matter.
I stopped focusing on money a few years ago to pursue what I truly wanted to do, which included: creating whatever I imagined, supporting others’ dreams, and working towards a kinder, healthier world. As they say, the money will come; and honestly, it has. I am beyond blessed.☺️
I know life has been somewhat rough at times, and you have felt like giving up more times than you care to admit, but hang in there. Please don’t give up. I promise you, you are going to make it. Speaking from a wealth of experiences. Y’all, I made it!!!
Always remember, God has the final say. You were never meant to fail, but to prosper.
Now…
Breathe and keep going!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Good Morning! Couldn’t decide which Facebook memory to share, so I decided to share both. The message—
Persevere and create the life you desire and deserve. Don’t stop going or creating until you’ve achieved both. Then… KEEP GOING!♥️
Love you,

For several days now, B. Slade’s (formerly known as Tonex) song, “Make Me Over,” has been playing in my head off and on. But today, it’s been on repeat. I fell asleep hearing it and woke up hearing it. Even believe I was hearing it while asleep. Which means it must need to be shared. Here are the lyrics.
“Make Me Over” by B. Slade
Lyrics: Musixmatch
You know my other side
I can no longer hide
Let you down so many times
Sin freshly crucifies
Thought that I had a plan
I had it all figured out
But the more that you tried to be by my side
The more I pushed you out
Lord make me over
Lord make me over
Lord make me over
Make me over again (Is that anybody’s prayer out there tonight)
Make me over again (Somebody out there sing it come on)
Make me over again
Make me over again
Time after the time I failed you
Pierced your side when they already nailed you
Jesus heal my open wounds
I just want to be more like you
Father I let you down
What’s not like you just take it out
Reconcile me Jesus, I just want to please you
Wash me and make me whole
Lord make me over
Lord make me over
Lord make me over
Make me over again
Make me over again
Make me over again
Make me over again
Y’all, there’s another shift happening in the atmosphere. I can feel it, and I’m here for it! God is making everything new again. Whatever was meant for evil or to destroy will not prevail. Keep your eyes, hearts, and minds open. Great things are headed your way!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
