It’s Monday! Yayyy!!😅
It’s barely mid-morning, and I have already done a day or more of work. So, this Facebook memory is so timely. It’s a reminder to stop, breathe, and find bright moments when things become a little hectic.
Remember…
Stop.
Breathe.
Find something that makes you smile.🥰
Then, carry on.
You got this!♥️
Love you,
Shaun

God is always working and moving, even when it appears He’s not. Here are a few memories from April 7th.
April 7, 2022 and 2018
April 7, 2024
In 2018, I was going through a weird phase in my career and wanted change. I needed it! I was losing confidence and trust in the work I was doing and in myself. So, a few months after the conference, I enrolled in a doctoral program to pursue a Doctor of Public Health (DrPH) degree. I had already been working in community and public health nutrition, so it seemed like the logical move at the time. Plus, as I mentioned earlier, I needed a change. That was 2018.
Three years later (2021), I took a leap to become a full-time, independent consultant. That was around the end of the pandemic. At that time, I hadn’t seen my colleagues in person for over a year, so I felt pretty isolated. However, it was also during that time that I decided to promote our profession and my colleagues on my social media platform, Mississippi Thriving. I wanted Mississippians to know who we were and what our contributions were to improving our citizens’ health. So, I reached out to our dietitians asking if they’d be willing to be showcased on Mississippi Thriving’s “RDN Saturdays” (something I came up with early one morning🤷🏽♀️☺️), and several agreed! Hence, one of the reasons for the award I received.
Looking back, I’ve actually done a lot more than I thought over the past ten years. In no way am I bragging. I’m only acknowledging my accomplishments. For the longest time, I’ve felt like my life’s been stagnant, but in reality, it’s been moving. God’s been moving!
Y’all, I can’t say it enough, I am truly, truly blessed.🥰

Setbacks will happen. They are a part of life. But so are comebacks!
You got this!!♥️

When I tell you God KNOWS just what we need when we need it! I needed this message below to kick off today’s celebration.🎉
“Leave No Crumbs” by Sarah Jakes Roberts
Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts’ (SJR) words reminded me that I’m not who I used to be. I’m no longer the person I was ten years ago, not even a year ago (yeah…my life is transitioning fast). As she suggested in her message, the self-preservation method I was using before is no longer effective for where God is taking me. It’s time for me to let it go, stop resisting the change, and embrace the newest version of myself so I can move forward. I’ve been feeling this a lot lately. I just needed to hear it, and hear it clearly.
I’m listening, God! I’m ready for where you’re taking me!
Forever grateful and beyond blessed to experience and reside in God’s love.♥️

Good Morning☀️
Ten years ago, I ended my journal entry with, “Lord, please guide me.”
Ten years ago, my entire world changed. During the final days of March 2015, I experienced my greatest heartbreak but also my greatest relief. My ex-husband had finally moved out. That was the relief. However, the greatest heartbreak came from those I always thought would have my back but instead turned their backs on me.
Y’all, it’s been a very long ten years. Not only did I have to rebuild a life for me and my two (my hearts and rocks!), but I had to rebuild relationships. I’m not going to go into details, but just know that when I say I made it, believe me—I MADE IT!!!
I am forever indebted to God. I know I wouldn’t be here had it not been for Him. I am so grateful for His love, mercy, grace, kindness, patience and GUIDANCE. I asked for His guidance, and He answered.
Today, I’m celebrating.
Yes, I’m celebrating!
I made it!!🎉
Thank you so much for your love and continued support. I pray you have a beautifully, blessed day!♥️
I love you,
Shaun
For the past two days I have been seeing and hearing the message—“Be still.”
Honestly, I didn’t think that I was moving at all. I’ve been feeling like I haven’t been moving or doing enough. You know how you get the feeling that you should be further along than you are, the feeling of being behind? Well, that’s exactly what I’ve been feeling lately.
A few minutes ago, I revisited my Facebook memories and found the same message tucked away within another message. Earlier, I only noticed “Finding Balance.” However, this time, I noticed the hashtag “Be Still.”
Being obedient.
I’m listening, God.🙏🏽
