Bershan Shaw

UNSTOPPABLE

B

ershan wasn’t born a warrior, she became one. She survived Stage 4 breast cancer after being given a three-month sentence to live. She is now thirteen years cancer free, and she is not only surviving but she is thriving. Bershan decided at the moment she got diagnosed to get busy living and not dying. She went through a dark period of dealing with depression, anxiety, and stress. Her mental health was taking a toll on her and she knew that she had to do something about it. That’s when she started to do research on positive living and a positive mindset. She became a certified life and business coach to help others who were suffering in silence just like her. During her time in the chemo room, she birthed the idea of launching her mental health app URAWARRIOR. URAWARRIOR is a positive social networking site with a purpose. No bullying, no trolling, and no negativity because Ms. Shaw believes that you are what you think, and you are what you believe. She has come up with a methodology called THE URAWARRIOR METHOD to help people with their mindset to make them do better and be better. Her life now is focused on mental health advocacy and giving back to those who have suffered as she lost her brother and her mother to breast cancer and mental health battles, and she is now the champion carrying the torch to heal as they both struggled with mental health struggles. Now, she wants to start a movement to “Remove the Stigma” and help people heal through human connection. Go to www.urawarrior.com to sign up now. As I continued my interview, I found Bershan Shaw to be bold, daring, beautiful and UNSTOPPABLE! More importantly, She is a walking, living testimony of God’s healing power! She states, “I made a choice every, single day that I was going to LIVEI I believed what the scriptures said and, “live and not die and declare the works of the Lord”, says Bershan! Did I mention that Bershan Shaw is a survivor, a thriver, a daughter to her dad whom she is so close to. Bershan is a tv personality who spreads love and motivation. In truth, Bershan is an international transformational speaker, a business and leadership coach, Bershan is no longer a people pleaser. She is a warrior and passionate about helping young girls and women thrive.
