Shonda’s childhood was a far cry from a picturesque family behind a white picket fence. From leaving an abusive home while still in elementary school, to struggling with body image issues in high school, her early years were filled with chaos. However, her outer world built up resilience within, and driven by a desire to take control of her wellbeing, Shonda turned to fitness. As her self worth grew, her newfound confidence brought her to modeling, and eventually to the world of social media, where she thrived.

Shonda’s tumultuous beginnings did not stop her dreams, in fact, they alchemized into an inspiring journey of self love.

This is her story.
