Through her own life journey, she saw firsthand how fear can limit potential, create enormous self-doubt, and hinder abilities to have what others have. But Shannon also knew the power of dreaming. She watched her mother constantly think beyond their current circumstances, seeking to make a difference while guided by a spiritual compass.
About Shannon Wallis
Shannon knows what it’s like to live with a poverty mindset and overcome adversity with the aspiration of knowing what true opportunity means.
In 2002, guided by that compass, Shannon embarked on a spiritual, nomadic pilgrimage along the Camino de Santiago that would alter the course of her life. She recognized that life is about being of service, which reminded her of her soulful role: to lead as a messenger of hope, an agent of transformation, a guardian of the innocent, and a mother to her own “lovelies.” This is where she finds solace in knowing that leadership can and will always be led from the heart.
Today, she helps senior executives remove their inner critic, reframe their poverty mindset, and reclaim their abundant voice to reveal their full selves. This is where love and leadership coexist as compassionate champions for meaningful change. You could even say… it’s the dawn of a new kind of revival.
“I help senior executives remove their inner critic, reframe their poverty mindset, and reclaim their abundant voice so they can revive the heart of leadership.”
