Shanice Love was born on October 25, 1982 in Miami, Florida the oldest of six children born to Haitian parents. She was always ambitious and reliable keeping with the first born trait and always a natural leader. Shanice was born into a family where the patriarch and matriarch functioned in the tradition of their former Island home, Haiti, ruling with an iron fist and not giving way to modern practices and beliefs when it came to their home. The home was filled with love and encouragement not based on an image, but the world outside of her home gave a message contradictory, the meeting of those two places is where she would be forced to define herself for herself, putting to rest some things and bringing forth a new life through others.
​
When asked about this period in her life and the significance it holds to the woman she is still becoming she responds, “Suffering from depression and not understanding what was draining my energy and stealing my joy was unbearable. No more no less, during the times of my pre teen and teenage years, depression and mental illness was not something discussed. It was not believed to affect people of my descent. I was struggling with accepting my sexuality, I am a lesbian. I was struggling with accepting my body changes, I was developing, becoming a woman, I was blind to what was wrong, and therefore I delayed my healing process. I could not become the person I was destined to become because I did not know who I was; I simply existed so I needed to find out what it was like to live, my rebirth started with acceptance.”
​
Shanice accepted that the perception society holds of one does not have to become one's reality and her self-image would not be bound in insecurities because of how she was perceived or put into a box by society. She became educated on the subject matter of depression and used her vulnerabilities about herself to empower her to become a catalyst for change. She is the phoenix, self doubt was put to rest, and self-assurance and self love were birthed; out of the ashes rose, First Lady Truth.
​
First Lady Truth is the business woman, the advocate, the key note and motivational speaker. First Lady Truth is the variable in the equation which functions to drive the whole of Shanice to success; she is focused and understands that to constantly evolve one must always align themselves with opportunities to grow.
​
First Lady Truth is always working to better every aspect of her empire believing everything can be improved upon and she is always in search of the next innovative idea or cause to be aligned with. Loyalty Enterprise and First Lady Truth are supporters of Breast Cancer, Lupus, Autism and Domestic Violence Awareness. Both entities, Loyalty Enterprise and First Lady Truth, are also aligned with the Body Positive Movement.
​
First Lady Truth is a woman on the move and when asked what she does in her free time she gives a slight chuckle and then asks, “What is free time?” “I have no free time, in the moments I find, where I do not have a meeting, an event or class to attend, I am running after and with my son the underlying reason I go so hard in all I do.”
​
Shanice Love, is a powerful woman poised to prosper but she knows she is nothing without her faith; her faith does not lie in religion but in the maker of all things and the one who sustains her. She believes with the spirit that dwells within her, she controls her destiny acting on the free will granted to her; to control her thoughts, then her words and then her actions.
​
First Lady Truth is standing on the precipice of greatness advocating for justice, promoting social change and togetherness creating new avenues for expression while remaining centered and humble.
