“When you love someone and decide to spend your life as one, your dreams and goals are now shared, so when an injury or hardship comes, it hits you both. But if you focus on your love, you’ll find a way to get through, and, if need be, create new goals together.” – Shevon Nieto
When Shavon first encountered Jaime it was at a track meet. They were both Olympians and he had just won his heat and she thought he was cute. Fast forward 4 years later to another track meet at UCLA and Jaime would ask Shavon out to dinner. They were inseparable ever since. It wouldn't be until years later when a terrible accident would put their love to a test. Listen in to this 2018 interview for Black Love Doc as Shavon and Jaime share what they learned about love through hardships, shifting one's goals, and how love truly is the foundation to it all.
