Introducing Me

Live life to its fullest. You’ll have no regrets!

I am a storyteller and dreamer. I enjoy creating a life that is meaningful and peaceful. In a world that treasures a fast-paced lifestyle, I focus on finding those quiet moments where I prioritize a less planned life. Those moments in which I can share time with those who I value the most, my friends and family. 

For almost three years, life has been chaotic. Long days of operating a business, homeschooling my children, and writing…It was exhausting. In this time, I have realized that we all need time to breathe. I needed time to breathe. I began seeking ways to slow down and make each day count. Daily, I found myself asking questions. How can I embrace a slow, meaningful life? Am I practicing gratitude enough daily? What does a simple life mean? 

The hustler lifestyle meant little to no rest each day. That is not what I wanted for my family or me. The Hustler (me) would come home exhausted each day, continue to work, and have no time for recovery. I found myself constantly depleted. I knew that was not a way to live. 

There must be more than this provincial life.

My mission:: Find magical moments in my everyday life. 

I wanted to create a haven for my home. One that my family would know is their safe space. I crave an abundant life with whimsy. This is me following my heart to be my authentic self. Patrice Shawntia…That is me…The real me; the writer and the dreamer. Perhaps you want to explore your authenticity and seek clarity in your daily life. Follow your heart, Love. If you want the magic, it’s right there waiting for you.  

I am an entrepreneur, writer, and teacher. I enjoy sharing magical moments in my life with hopes to show that no matter how big or small, we all experience beautiful moments each day. Moments that are filled with gratitude, love, and hope for all that we desire in life.
