Hi!  I'm Shannon!

Your happiness means a lot to me!  Not just because you deserve it (which you totally do!), but because I know you take care of a lot of other people.  When you are happy, comfortable in your own skin, operating from that place of deep contentment, your light and your gifts shine on everyone around you... and you, quite literally, make the world a better place!  

I am a Certified Professional Life Coach, Accredited EFT Practitioner and Science of Happiness junkie. 

I have created The I A.M. Coaching Method™ teaching women how to Integrate Action and Mindset so they can experience the deep contentment and joy they are looking for in every area of their life.  I empower women to take better care of themselves by internally changing the way they talk to themselves and externally transforming their self-care. 

True happiness is not happy-birthday-polly-anna happy.  Happiness is a place where all emotions are welcome. At its core is a confidence that comes from knowing that no matter what life throws at you, you've got all the tools you need to handle it.  So bring it on!   

Happiness is a lifestyle choice.  It is a skill.  Something you can learn and practice.  Just like anything else.  Even if you live with chronic illness.  And I can teach you how to do it.  

Oh... I also happen to live with a chronic condition called Primary Immunodeficiency Disease.  I know firsthand how hard it can be to genuinely find joy when you live with a chronic condition. 

That is why I started Finally Effing Happy and why I am passionate about teaching women how to be kind to themselves, both inside and out. 

On my own journey, the support I found was either depressing or dismissive of what it's like to live with a chronic condition.  I often felt hopelessly broken, like no one really understood. 

YOU KNOW YOU best.  You know what does and doesn't work for you, your condition, your lifestyle, your family.  You have been on this journey a long time and have already done some A-MAZ-ING work.      

Let's turn all that knowing into action so that you can finally start getting the results you've been searching for!

When your self-care foundation is solid and strong (not perfect... but strong) EVERYTHING is possible from there!  

On a personal note, I am a wife and mom: bio mom, stepmom, adopted mom, doggie mom. I love coffee, dancing, nature's beauty and learning about cultures and perspectives different from mine.  

My life is perfectly imperfect and there isn't anything I teach that I haven't personally done or do on an ongoing basis myself.  I am passionate about this work because I know it works, for me, and many others.   

I am so effing excited you are here and hopefully we get to meet in person, or at least via zoom, sometimes soon!
