This brand didn’t come from a business plan — it was birthed from a prophecy. A promise whispered in the darkest hour, when I was fighting for my life and didn’t know if I’d see my children again. As a single mom, I didn’t have a team. I didn’t have funding. I didn’t even know how to build a website. But I had a word from God — and I had the fire to obey it. Every piece you see, every product, every post, every healing kit — was made for the woman I used to be. The woman searching for light after trauma. The woman holding pain in silence. The woman who’s still here, against all odds.
Now that the vision has been born, the legacy begins. Moments Collective is more than a store — it’s a movement. It’s a mirror for women to see themselves again. Every color, quote, and collection was crafted with intention to comfort, uplift, and empower. What started with a hospital bed and a prayer has now become a legacy of healing for women everywhere. This isn’t just about survival — it’s about building something eternal. The prophecy spoke life. The labor brought it forth. And now, this legacy will speak for generations.
💫 PROPHECY TO LEGACY
Born Aug 1985- Clinical Died Aug 2019
Shawnise Chantell, a 39-year-old mother of three from Arkansas, lives with Congestive Heart Failure. In 2019, after a near-death experience during childbirth, Shawnise's life took a dramatic turn. Just one week after turning 33, a ventricular cardiac arrest occurred the night before returning home. Despite facing challenges like a speech impediment, child molestation, teenage pregnancy, homelessness, and divorce, Shawnise persevered, instilled with core values by her mother.

ABOUT ME:
🎓 Education
After high school, I felt led to the medical profession. I earned a medical technical certificate and subsequently an associate degree from The University Of Arkansas For Medical Science.
I secured a prestigious job at The Arkansas Heart Hospital. Working with heart patients instilled in me a profound appreciation for the preciousness of time, leading me to embrace my adulthood with joy. I didn’t know down the line I would be in the very shoes of a heart patient.
It wasn’t an easy journey as a single mother, but I recognized the immense strength I would later need to survive.
Spirituality has enriched Shawnise's life more than religion. Like a device needing electricity, Shawnise's life thrives on a connection to Jesus.
Throughout my life, I have been fortunate to maintain excellent health. I have never had frequent hospital visits, significant illnesses, surgeries. In fact my life was filled with thrill and adventure. From Skydiving, climbing mountains to traveling. Beyond my responsibilities as a mother, these enjoyable activities became increasingly important in my early thirties.
ABOUT ME:
🪞 The Scars Ain’t Pretty
Sadly, the best parts of my life ceased the night my bowel was nicked from the tubal ligation procedure. Out of nowhere I was leaving a nightmare. My organs failed to function properly and I became fully disabled.
Although the trills I used to enjoy will only remain a memory, I decided to create memories of moments with my family that my disability does restrict!
