Hi, I’m Shannon.

My story might sound familiar…

I spent my life chasing “success” as it was described to me as child - i.e. being healthy (looking), joining the corporate world and climbing that ladder, making more money, etc.

After college I spent the better part of 20 years in corporate America “succeeding,” climbing that ladder and reaching leadership roles.

I found myself staying in jobs where I was undervalued and working long hours, because I felt stuck and unmotivated.

During that time I battled burnout caused by massive amounts of stress, which led me to adrenal fatigue and a variety of sleep and digestive issues as well.

After I had my daughter, things got EVEN HARDER. I was back in my job 8 weeks after her birth, but struggling with postpartum anxiety and hormone levels so out of whack that my cycle became increasingly painful and sleep was elusive. Finally, I was losing DAYS each month to debilitating pain.

After getting no answers or guidance from healthcare professionals (my doctors and resources), I took matters into my own hands. I researched, learned about my hormones, experimented with cycle-syncing, learned about my metabolism, and then delved into a long-standing interest - traditional medicine.

I grew up with a skilled acupuncturist as a mother and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as my primary healthcare system. When I began seeing Ayurveda (translated it means “the science of life”) coming up in my research, I grabbed onto that spark of curiosity and followed it into a full Wellbeing Coach certification through the Chopra Institute, which provided certifications in Ayurvedic health, meditation and transformational coaching.

I learned to heal myself through the lifestyle principles of Ayurveda and energetic healing of TCM. I had been using tools like meditation for years, but learning and practicing Primordial Sound Meditation took what was an interest and made it into a true passion.

I’ve navigated the corporate world while healing myself and then redefined success for myself, deciding to make my professional life about helping others make the same aligned change.

we are capable of absolute magic when we live in alignment with our true selves.

What if I told you that you were a powerful being of creation?

What would you create?

Most of us know when something doesn’t feel quite right in our lives. But we’re not great at identifying what feels right.

We are also not actively taught how to navigate and activate meaningful change. Instead, we are told to get through or manage change that happens to us.

Learning what aligns with you and your heart and then actively seeking out creating that for yourself is not only possible, it’s what you are here for.

the Align method

A - Awareness development

Developing a strong sense of self awareness will help ensure you can hold yourself accountable and keep you on track with your goals.

L - Learn new skills

Take in the lessons and learn the skills needed to inform how you will create this change.

I - Integrate

Create an action plan for integrating and applying necessary changes, habits, steps into your daily life.

G - Growth mindset

Tackle the mindset issues and other conditioned thinking that might get in your way of lasting change and ensure you can maintain a growth-focused approach.

N - Normalize

Ensure your change will last by evaluating and facing any obstacles holding you back from fully normalizing it into your life.
