Meet Shaunna
I grew up dancing under Spanish Moss in the South. I was always a shy child, and although I had good friends, I always kind of felt like an outsider, like I didn’t quite belong in the environments I was placed in, except dance class, my books, and my journals. These were my safe havens – my creative outlets that gave me independence, a place where I felt most myself and a place where I felt I belonged, as well as a sense of freedom from my anxieties. As I grew up, I gained deeper interest in writing, along with newfound passion in photography and film. These passions and creative outlets were there for me when relationships and friendships ended, when my life took an emotional turn or two with tragedy and trauma, and it fueled me to take it more seriously. I graduated from an art college with a BFA, after majoring in filmmaking.
I suffer from chronic illness, which is obviously a huge part of my life. I suffer from chronic migraines which are completely dibilitating, fibromyalgia, interstitial cystitis, polycystic ovary syndrome, depression, and anxiety. I hope to discover hope and positivity while sharing what my life is like with chronic illness, while meeting other amazing people that struggle with it too.
Meet Chapters of Honey
Chapters of Honey is my tiny curated corner of the internet where I can focus on all of my passions. I have been at service to other people’s visions and projects for too long, and I wanted a space where I can feature my own work. I’ve always been careful with my words, but open with my heart and honest about my emotions and experiences. I have found that the strongest bonds are created out of laying your heart on the line, and one of the greatest things is when you connect with other people and they feel a newfound strength or yearning to share their story as well. Community is everything to me and I would love for you to be apart of my small but amazing community.
Here you will find:
a shop with all of my favorite wellness products
a community chat filled with awesome people
a bookclub & occasionally a readathon
services I offer
