Shannon Cason's Homemade

I’ve used alter egos my whole life - from basketball to everyday responsibilities. Sometimes self-awareness means knowing how to shift into the version of you that gets things done.

My old pastor sent me a friend request, and I didn’t accept it...yet. Sometimes self-awareness means knowing what parts of your past you may or may not need to revisit. But who knows - sometimes I do things just for the story!

I spent the entire day shopping with my mom - something I used to hate as a kid. Funny how things change as time goes.

I went through a whole day feeling off and couldn’t figure out why. Turns out it was something small I didn’t do...WATER!

We didn’t say much, and that's alright. Silence says it all sometimes.

I’m not violent, but my gym playlist says otherwise. Makes me think about what we take in and what it does to us - good and bad...or a mix of both.

I judged a debate competition, and I almost had to run the whole debate. I wasn’t ready… but I was ready. The kids impressed me. It made me think about what’s possible now.

When the weather warms up in the city, everything shifts - how people move, how spaces feel, and how you carry yourself. Always stay aware.

A day of running errands with my uncle turned into something deeper about being seen. Sometimes you have to shift the energy to remind people you’re there.

My mind was somewhere else all day, and I kept doubling back for everything. However, who knew doubling back was a great exercise?

After talking about checking in, people started reaching out. My friend Miles paid me a visit. You have to have friends that you can talk to about anything.

The story is already there. You just have to notice it. A quick explanation of Everyday is a Story. What's your story?

We built a connection through music and kept it going over time. I hadn’t heard from my friend in a while, so I reached out. You never really know what someone’s going through until you check in.

A ride to the doctor and family errands turned into a quiet lesson about music, timing, and listening. Remember to get as much information as you can from your elders.

Fasting had me in a full conversation with myself all day. But not every voice in your head deserves your attention. What’s something you argue with yourself about?

I'm a Grandpa to seven kids...yeah seven. None are by blood, but I've been Grandpa Shannon all of their lives. They are part of my story, and I'm a part of theirs. Nuff said.

A late-night craving had me pulling into a gas station when I usually wouldn’t. Sugar can override common sense.

I heard my daughter talking with her friend this morning and realized how different she sounds when she’s just being herself. It made me think about how we all find our own voice...then the voice we use with our parents.

I have to hit multiple Detroit soul food restaurants to bring my uncle exactly what he wanted. No one makes everything just right, but all together it works out - ribs to oxtails to drumsticks - every stop had its own vibe.

Just getting started training in kickboxing and Muay Thai, and it’s already been a reality check. After watching an experienced grandma and breaking it all down with my dad, I realize it’s less about throwing punches and more about timing, control, and strategy. Kinda like life...

I came across someone I used to date on a dating app. We had real chemistry, but not much compatibility. Now I’m sitting with a simple question - swipe right or leave it alone?

I’ve been looking for the right opportunity. This one felt right. But sometimes even when you know… you still have to wait. Waiting sucks!

I took my time installing shelves for my home office. When I finished, I was impressed with my work. Right now, they are completely empty - no books, no pictures, no nothing. However, the vision of everything is already here.

Recently, I realized I’ve been talking louder than usual. Spending more time taking care of my elders has changed how I communicate. I just have to remember to TURN IT OFF!

I worked out with my dad and his friends. He's 85. No one was under 70.
