She got married to Keion in a beautiful tropical destination wedding last year. And you know what they say, the more time you spend with someone, the more you end up absorbing their traits. And that’s what seems to have happened to Shaunie in recent times, as she once again relayed a powerful message to overcome hardships and bleak times in life, the same way that she did.

Shaunie Henderson recently channeled her inner Keion Henderson to send out an uplifting message to those in despair. Having gone through a painful divorce herself, it seems like she wants to offer a helping hand to those in pain.

Shaunie was recently in the mood to send out good vibes to anyone in need of it. Hence, she took to Instagram to post an uplifting and powerful reel.

The reel had audio of her sending out a clear message. Shaunie said to her followers in a clear, assuring voice, “Don’t make decisions for now. Make decisions for your future. I know it looks horrible and hard and sad and depressing right now.”

“But you dont know what this moment is setting you up for. You dont know that this is building you up for then. you can not see it. I know it s*cks. I know you just don’t wanna be in this space. But I promise you, whatever is happening, it’s a purpose for what’s coming.”

This message can easily be related to Shaunie’s own life. She was at the lowest point in her life following her messy public divorce from Shaq, which saw the public subjecting her to all kinds of vile accusations and mistreatment. However, she overcame the dark phase of her life and is currently enjoying the fruits of her labor.
