Hello everyone, I'm Shannon – a dynamic keynote speaker, relationship coach, and an expert in personal and organizational development with a fervent passion for coaching coaches. Boasting over 20 years of experience as a nurse, speaker, and coach, coupled with a rich background in the United States Army, I bring a unique perspective to leadership and personal growth. My approach is simple yet profound: coach the shepherd first, then the sheep. I believe in empowering coaches to become transformative leaders, who in turn inspire and guide their teams to greatness.My journey has been shaped by resilience, having overcome significant health challenges as a disabled veteran, including open heart surgery and three bouts with cancer. These experiences have not only tested but also strengthened my resolve, enabling me to connect with others through a genuine and impactful narrative. My speaking and coaching style is engaging and heartfelt, designed to motivate, inspire, and usher in transformation.Amid my journey as a keynote speaker and coach, I’m now facing a new challenge: a diagnosis of multiple myeloma. Rooted in my faith as a Christian, I’m embracing this battle with a spirit of resilience and purpose, grounded in trust in God’s plan. This journey has brought deep lifestyle changes, including a commitment to whole-food, plant-based eating, and a holistic approach that includes the standard of medical care alongside spiritual and emotional practices. With the incredible support of my medical team, these combined efforts are leading me toward deep remission. Today, I’m not only committed to my work but also to sharing my story as a beacon of hope and perseverance, encouraging others to find strength and purpose in the battles they face, whatever they may be.I pride myself on my ability to craft experiences that resonate deeply with my audience, addressing their unique needs and challenges. My interactions are more than just speeches or workshops; they are catalysts for change, focusing on the importance of mindset and personal responsibility. It's not just about facing life's challenges but transforming them into opportunities for growth and leadership. With me as your guide, expect to embark on a journey that leads to profound revelations and lasting change. Let's unlock the potential within every leader/coach and, in turn, their organizations/teams.
