"As black people, we never hold each other accountable, it has become so easy for us to blame someone for something. We allow certain things to happen within ourselves and our circles that we shouldn't. The first thing we never call each other out when we brutally and blatantly go out of our way to pull down and destroy another successful person."

Shona expressed how he has set boundaries for himself in terms of the people he allows around him. Nasty people are not welcome in his circle and that has made the world of difference.

"I made it a point that if you are going to be in my circle, you are negative and you are toxic, I'm going to cut you out, I don't care who you are. I'm not going to have regrets about it. If you are negative and toxic in my circle, you are gone. It's simple."
