This weekend is Canadian Thanksgiving and it's really such a lovely time of the year to be thankful - the leaves on the trees are gorgeous shades of yellow, orange, and red, the sun is shining, and the farmers markets are bountiful! It's also the time of year I am so grateful to have a healthy, happy family and the ability to pursue entrepreneurship so that I can be more present for them. Alongside that, I am forever grateful for this amazing community and all of you who make it the warm, welcoming, and collaborative place that it is. The vibe her is one-of-a-kind, and so many people who join comment immediately that it feels like a great space - and that is all because of you! A few days ago, I accidentally allowed in someone who I shouldn't have. This person sent hundreds of spam messages using AI. Two amazing things happened as a results. First, three different people immediately reported the comments to me so that I could take fast action and ban him from the group. But also what occurred to me was that his comments were so easy to spot because they were so different from the usual lovely comments that are authentic and genuine and full of real connection. I appreciate so much how you all show up here every day posting authentically about how you are able to help others and then commenting on each others posts with genuine interest and questions. Running a group of this size is not easy, and I really depend on the vigilance of the group to help me keep it the safe space it is. I also really appreciate how the majority of you take it upon yourselves to make sure that you are following the community guidelines so that we don't have to do as much enforcing. So, on this lovely October Sunday, thank you and I hope you have a lovely day no matter where you are in the world. ❤️Shannon

You bought it to improve wine aroma identification and never opened the box. Why? Nobody told you how. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘫𝘪𝘨𝘴𝘢𝘸 𝘱𝘶𝘻𝘻𝘭𝘦 𝘣𝘰𝘹 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘦. But 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 if you're still struggling to describe what you smell and taste in a glass of wine. In this video, I'll show you exactly how to use your wine aroma kit. Watch it now.

One guru swears that a weekly webinar funnel got them to $10K MRR in just a few weeks. Another stands by their "exact Instagram reel" that got them their first $5K day. Yet another says cold outreach and a bevy of AI appointment setters is the real, REAL deal. Who the hell do you believe? How on earth do you figure out what you DO need and what's just a waste of your damn time? On Wednesday you're invited to Wait, I Need WHAT Now?! right here in the skool CLASSIFIEDS. And over the weekend I built y'all an ideal funnel fit tool I'm calling "What's My Funnel?" — which I'll be demo-ing live on the call. It's a quizlet that helps you determine what's the best funnel for you, your offer, and your capacity—which NONE of the gurus take into consideration. But you need to. Because they are not you, their offer is not your offer, and their capacity for marketing is not the same as yours. Hope you can join in and give this thing a big fat test drive with us!

I almost didn’t share this… But I lived for more than 20 years feeling invisible. Alone. As if I moved through the world speaking a language nobody could understand. Nobody saw my weirdness, my wildness, or my wisdom. Nobody saw the depths of my inner world. I felt disconnected from the world, and I started to disconnect from myself more and more. I built walls to protect myself, but that meant I wasn't letting anyone in either. It meant I pretended to be strong when in reality I was drowning in my own tears. I spent years trying to prove my worth. Years of living at the mercy of external and empty expectations. Years of living in fear, anxiety, and overwhelm. Everything changed when I stopped waiting for someone to see me and had the courage to see myself instead. To look at myself in the mirror and love myself despite all my flaws and wounds. To see how perfectly imperfect and beautiful I am. You see… When you're capable of holding and embracing everything you are (your dreams, fears, strengths, weaknesses, silliness, love…) You find inner peace. You find true self-love. You reconnect with the woman you truly are. And you unlock all the power you need to create your dream reality. But I know looking at yourself in the mirror and reconnecting with who you truly are isn’t easy, especially when you’ve spent years hiding while carrying deep emotional wounds. That’s exactly why I included ‘Mirror Witness’ (guided by me every step of the way) as the first exercise of my free somatic workflow, HER Relief & Reset. ☀️ So, if you’re a female solopreneur tired of feeling invisible and want to take the first step to reconnect with yourself today… Grab HER Relief & Reset for FREE here.
