Shane's Shorts - Juneteenth

Shane's Shorts - Juneteenth

Juneteenth is a holiday to commemorate the freedom, resilience, and pursuit of equality for black Americans in the United States. It is a time to honor the strength and perseverance of persons of color. And it is celebrated on the 19th of June...marking the day in 1865 (more than two years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation) when Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, TX to announce that all enslaved persons were free. #authenticity [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/authenticity] #itstimetobeyou [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/itstimetobeyou] #sphproductions [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/sphproductions] #juneteenth [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/juneteenth] #endofslavery [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/endofslavery] #emancipationproclamation [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/emancipationproclamation] #perserverance [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/perserverance] #strength [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/strength] #resilience [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/resilience] #freedom [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/freedom] #equality [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/equality]

2-Year Anniversary - It's Time to Be YOU!

June 2026 is the 2-year anniversary of publishing my book and establishing my company, SPH Productions! It also happens to be my 50th birthday! So I thought I'd share a bit about what the past 2 years have been like...and ask all of you to help me celebrate! #authenticity [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/authenticity] #itstimetobeyou [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/itstimetobeyou] #sphproductions [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/sphproductions] #books [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/books] #podcast [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/podcast] #author [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/author] #publicspeaking [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/publicspeaking] #birthday [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/birthday] #50thbirthday [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/50thbirthday] #celebration [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/celebration] #anniversary [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/anniversary] #gift [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/gift] #subscribe [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/subscribe] #followme [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/followme] #like [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/like] #likeandsubscribe [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/likeandsubscribe] #favor [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/favor]

Shane's Shorts - Aging

Aging is something we all experience. Some of us fear it, some of us celebrate it. In this video, I talk about varying views on aging and what it can represent. Regardless of your feelings about it, aging isn't something you can stop. It's important to consider your mindset about it and how you allow it to affect you. #authenticity [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/authenticity] #itstimetobeyou [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/itstimetobeyou] #sphproductions [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/sphproductions] #aging [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/aging] #age [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/age] #gettingolder [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/gettingolder] #ageisjustanumber [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/ageisjustanumber] #wisdom [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/wisdom]

Shane's Shorts - Men's Mental Health Awareness Month

June is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month so I thought I'd take a moment to acknowledge some of the mental health challenges men face. No matter who you are, it's ok to ask for help. And having emotions is a natural part of being a human being. #authenticity [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/authenticity] #itstimetobeyou [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/itstimetobeyou] #sphproductions [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/sphproductions] #men [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/men] #mentalhealth [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/mentalhealth] #weakness [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/weakness] #menhavefeelingstoo [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/menhavefeelingstoo] #mensmentalhealthawareness [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/mensmentalhealthawareness]

Being YOU! Season 4, Episode 10: Roundtable

Based on the amazing feedback from last season, we decided to bring back the roundtable discussion. Our conversation revolved around the intersection of mental health challenges and being part of the LGBTQ+ community. This time, my panel of guests included Phoebe Weng, Isabel, Serafin, and Andrew Robertson. They shared personal stories about their own experiences with being queer, gave feedback on mental health challenges within the community, and offered feedback on suggestions on how to help others find resources and improve their mental health. And of course, we touched on authenticity throughout the conversation.    This was another open and real discussion with some really great people! Thank you all for participating, sharing, laughing, and offering feedback on something that impacts most (if not all) members of our community. I am VERY appreciative! This Season's Authenticity Ambassador is the Transgender Center of the Rockies. Check them out at transgendercenteroftherockies.org A big THANK YOU to all of our sponsors this season!
