Hi, I'm Shannon,
My story is one of resilience, transformation, and healing. Learning to thrive again after cancer treatment inspired me to become a certified integrative health coach. I am deeply passionate about supporting women in rediscovering themselves, redefining what it means to be radiant, and regaining their health after treatment.
Emerging from cancer treatment, I felt a deep loss of myself and who I thought I was. But through that loss, I learned how to transform and move forward. I discovered a path to redefining and healing. I reclaimed and redefined the brilliance of life radiating from within.
​
Life’s ebbs and flows have brought me countless opportunities to grow and learn. Dust doesn’t have a chance to settle on my ever-expanding toolbox. I’ve learned the value of self-worth after a long and toxic relationship. In 2009, I graduated from Fire Academy and worked as a Firefighter/EMT for over 10 years. In 2012, after hard training, I earned my Russian Kettlebell Certification as a Certified Instructor. These experiences allowed me to live my dream of traveling internationally. My health and fitness were at their peak, and I was in the prime of my life.

In 2017, my life took an unexpected turn when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. The diagnosis was devastating, and treatment—encompassing surgeries, chemotherapy, and recovery—was grueling. Though I was eventually declared cancer-free, the aftermath left me feeling lost, both physically and emotionally. My body was broken, my soul depleted, my mind foggy, and my heart heavy with grief. I struggled to recognize the vibrant person I once was.
But from the ashes of that darkness, I found an inner strength and a spark of resilience. The path to healing was far from linear—I stumbled, took wrong turns, and faced countless challenges. Yet, I emerged stronger, healthier, and more radiant than ever before. And eventually, I regained my health, returning to work as a full-time firefighter overseas in challenging and unstable conditions. That experience brought new hardships, growth, and opportunities. Like the phoenix, I’ve risen from the ashes time and again.
I believe we all go through stages—caterpillar, chrysalis, butterfly—many times throughout life. Each regeneration offers a new opportunity to redefine who we are and what we can become. Today, I embrace my journey with gratitude, peace, and contentment.
Even the darkest moments have brought me to where I am now, and I wouldn’t change a thing.
If you’ve emerged from treatment feeling lost, disconnected from yourself, or unsure of where to turn, I would be honored to walk alongside you. As your health coach, I’ll help you reclaim your health, rediscover your brilliance, and redefine your radiance.
Are you ready to join me?
Wishing radiance to light your journey,
Shannon
