My name is Lashaun Forbes (A.K.A Shaunie). I currently live in South Florida, but I am originally from the beautiful island of Jamaica. Making the transition at the age of 8 was challenging. Two words…culture shock. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. But looking back I wouldn’t trade my experiences and lessons for anything in the world. They’ve shaped me into the woman I am today.
Over the years, I’ve discovered my passion and have been blessed to be able to walk in it every day. My passion include serving and teaching, mostly small serviced-based business owners.
I made the decision at the end of 2019 to step away from the typical 9 to 5 job, and jump into my entrepreneur journey full time. In previous years, I would do some work on the side, only wishing my circumstances would change.
I made the leap and yup…it felt like a dream come true. Every day I woke up excited to work. Then I realized the difference between being an employee and business owner as far as my finances.
I’d graduated with an Associate Accounting degree, but I NEVER knew things would work out in a way where I could use it. It’s funny how dark/unforeseen situations can bring you back on track and open your eyes to greater opportunities. Well, after losing my biggest client it forced me to start thinking outside my typical “box”, which at the time was mostly around marketing and being a Virtual Assistant.
I discovered that I could use my wisdom, knowledge, and experience to help others not just in the area of social media/marketing, but with their finances. Becoming whole and knowledgeable in this area could rid you of unnecessary stress. It would be my delight to partner with you along your journey. You don’t have to go the DIY route making a ton of mistakes as I did. Let me lighten your burden with my passion of helping, serving, accountability, creating and meeting goals.
Your dreams are not impossible. You may just be lacking the tools, inspiration, accountability, and attainable goals needed to make them your reality. Just like I had to tell myself in 2019, “It’s time.”

Hey Natalyah! Thank you for the encouragement.
Hi, I am looking for help with my daughter’s hair. She is 4, and I never plan on using a relaxed for her. It will be her choice when she is older, but right now I am washing her hair 2x-3x a week and the products I use are As I am shampoo, Cantu leave in conditioner and Blue magic hair grease. I use a moisturizer and water as needed when combing, when it is not braided. I can’t say it’s not working, but would love for tips on products that are good for kids. Love your page. Thanks in advance

Hi Angie! Thank you!
If the products you use work great on her hair, awesome. Keep using them. But there’s nothing wrong with wanting to see if there’s BETTER out there. One thing that really stand out to me is the fact that you’re washing your daughter’s hair 2-3 times every week. Applying shampoo that often to afro-textured hair can make it very dry. I would suggest cutting back to once a week. If you feel the need to wash her hair more than once a week, try As I Am Coconut Cowash. You can shampoo once a week and then use the cowash whenever else you feel like washing it that same week.
Also…check out Shea moisture’s line for kids.
Am so proud of you hunni. Keep it on
Thank you!!!!
Thanks!
