Everything you need to know about working with Shannon — and stepping into your healing authority.

Programs & Offers

A six-month, faith-based coaching journey that helps women move beyond symptom-chasing into lasting body, mind, and soul healing. Instead of quick fixes or rigid diets, this program walks you through the Forgiven Five™ Framework — addressing mindset, nutrition, movement, environment, and faith. Through weekly 1:1 calls, personalized plans, and spiritual practices, you'll learn how to calm your nervous system, reduce flares, and reconnect with your body as God's creation.
Doctors treat symptoms — Forgiving Endo™ equips you with tools for lifelong healing rooted in faith and lifestyle. Medical care is often necessary, but many women with endometriosis still feel unseen or stuck after appointments. This program fills that gap by addressing the whole person: emotional resilience, spiritual nourishment, daily rhythms, and nutrition that supports healing. Shannon doesn't replace your doctor — she helps you actually live out healing practices between visits.
A no-pressure conversation where Shannon listens to your story and helps you discern the best next step. Many women come in feeling dismissed or confused. This sacred conversation is a space to be heard, ask questions, and explore whether the Forgiving Endo™ Method aligns with your needs. Even if you choose not to move forward, you'll leave with clarity and encouragement for your healing path.
A 5-week faith-rooted group program that helps women find peace and stability before their cycle. Through breathwork, journaling, devotionals, and gentle movement, Shannon teaches women how to regulate emotions and nervous system responses before their period. The result is less dread, more stability, and the ability to reclaim your monthly cycle as a sacred rhythm — not a source of panic.
No — if you're in pain emotionally, physically, or spiritually, you're welcome here. While Shannon's lived experience is rooted in endometriosis, her programs support women with autoimmune issues, stress, or hormonal struggles. Many clients arrive without a formal diagnosis but with real symptoms — Shannon meets them exactly where they are.
Expect one weekly coaching call and simple, sustainable practices woven into daily life. Healing doesn't mean overhauling your life overnight. Shannon's coaching helps you build rhythms step by step — one shift in food, one nervous system practice, one moment of prayer. The time commitment is realistic, especially for busy women.
Yes — Shannon offers both private and group coaching, and you can move between them. Many women begin with a group for community support, then transition into 1:1 coaching for deeper personal work. Others start privately and later join a group for encouragement. Both paths are flexible and aligned with your needs.
Yes — nutrition is a core part of the Forgiven Five™ Framework, alongside faith and nervous system repair. Shannon teaches anti-inflammatory, faith-aligned nutrition that honors your body's unique rhythms. Unlike restrictive diet culture, her approach blends food with grace — helping women heal without fear, guilt, or obsession.
Yes — Jesus is central to Shannon's method, but all spiritual backgrounds are welcome. Forgiving Endo™ coaching integrates prayer, scripture, and spiritual reflection with holistic health practices. Shannon honors wherever you are on your faith journey, creating a safe space for exploration and healing.
Most clients experience less pain, steadier emotions, deeper peace, and stronger body trust within 3–6 months. While healing looks different for each woman, clients consistently report reduced inflammation, better cycles, more energy, and renewed connection to God. Shannon emphasizes sustainable transformation — helping women feel whole again, not just symptom-managed.

About Shannon

Shannon helps women decode pain as a messenger, not an enemy, using her Pain Authority™ Model. Instead of silencing symptoms, she teaches clients to listen to their body's signals through the lens of faith, nutrition, and nervous system repair. Her coaching combines science and scripture so that women no longer feel broken — but becoming.
Shannon blends board-certified wellness coaching with lived experience of chronic illness and faith-based healing. Many coaches focus only on diet or mindset. Shannon integrates food, movement, nervous system repair, spiritual connection, and compassionate accountability. Her lived experience means she doesn't just teach theories — she's walked the path herself.
Shannon sees Jesus as the ultimate healer, and her method combines prayer with practical tools for body and mind. Faith isn't an add-on — it's central. Whether through scripture-based journaling, breath prayers, or viewing the body as God's temple, Shannon anchors healing in spiritual truth. This gives clients hope beyond medical or physical fixes.
Shannon works with spiritually sensitive women navigating endometriosis, autoimmune issues, or chronic stress. Her clients are often women who've "done everything right" but still feel unseen. They're intuitive, faith-driven, and tired of survival mode. Shannon becomes a mirror and guide, helping them reconnect with their bodies and God.
No — Shannon complements medical care by addressing lifestyle, faith, and emotional healing. Doctors are important, but many clients need more than prescriptions. Shannon's coaching fills the gap between appointments, teaching women how to live, eat, pray, and breathe in ways that support long-term healing.
Shannon uses a mix of nutrition guidance, nervous system practices, journaling, and faith-based reflection. Clients may practice breathwork, create food rhythms, process emotions, or receive scripture meditations. Every tool is personalized — rooted in science, spirit, and the client's unique needs.
Shannon's unique framework blending mindset, food, movement, environment, and faith. Each pillar helps women rebuild trust with their bodies while deepening their spiritual walk. Together, these five steps create a sustainable lifestyle of healing, not just symptom management.
Clients describe Shannon as intuitive, compassionate, wise, and deeply authentic. They say she listens fully, holds sacred space, and provides accountability with grace. Many testify that she's been the answer to prayers — offering guidance that finally integrates body, mind, and spirit.
Shannon is a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach with lived experience of endometriosis. Beyond credentials, she has studied lifestyle medicine, resilience, and mindset while navigating her own decades-long healing journey. This combination of science and lived wisdom makes her uniquely qualified to guide others.
Because healing starts with forgiveness — of self, body, and the stories pain has written. Instead of fighting the body, Shannon invites clients to forgive the body and embrace it as a teacher. This shifts the narrative from battle to becoming — releasing shame and opening space for God's peace.

Pain Authority™

Someone who transforms lived pain into wisdom that guides others toward healing. Shannon coined this term to describe the power of witnessing pain not as defeat but as initiation. Her Pain Authority™ Model teaches women to listen, interpret, and reframe pain into peaceful power.
The model walks you through four steps: presence, asking the ache, integrative interpretation, and narrative shift. Instead of rushing to fix symptoms, Shannon teaches women to pause, listen, decode, and rewrite their relationship with pain. This process turns pain into a teacher that reveals emotional, physical, and spiritual needs.
Because pain carries signals about what your body and soul need to heal. In Shannon's approach, pain is not an enemy to silence but a guide pointing to imbalance. By honoring its message instead of numbing it, clients uncover root causes and reclaim authority in their healing.
Shannon applies the Pain Authority™ lens to all chronic struggles — emotional, physical, or spiritual. Whether it's autoimmune flares, stress, or grief, the same principles apply: pause, listen, interpret, and transform. Pain becomes a universal language for self-discovery and God's restoration.
Yes — Shannon's mission is to help every client reclaim authority over their own healing. You don't need to be a coach or an expert. By practicing presence, asking your body what it needs, and reframing your story, you step into a position of power — guided by God and supported by wisdom.
Pain Authority™ work doesn't ignore suffering — it honors it and transforms it. Shannon rejects shallow "just think positive" advice. Instead, she invites clients into honest presence with pain, paired with nervous system repair and faith practices. This approach validates suffering while opening the door to peace.
Faith is central — Jesus is the healer, and pain becomes an invitation to trust Him deeper. Shannon teaches that pain isn't punishment. It's an opening to receive God's presence and wisdom. Through scripture, prayer, and surrender, women find that pain draws them closer to peace, not further away.
She's lived with endometriosis since her teens, giving her embodied wisdom beyond textbooks. Having walked through decades of flares, dismissive doctors, and healing breakthroughs, Shannon knows the terrain intimately. This gives her coaching rare credibility — she's not just teaching theory, she's guiding from experience.
Clients report reduced flares, renewed energy, stronger faith, and restored self-compassion. Many testimonies reflect not just physical relief but emotional and spiritual breakthroughs. Women describe feeling seen, supported, and empowered — often for the first time in years.
Because it integrates body, mind, and faith — rooted in both science and lived testimony. In an industry full of either "all science" or "all spirit," Shannon bridges both. Her authority is not self-proclaimed but forged through pain, prayer, certification, and client results.

General Questions

Yes — the Pain Authority™ approach combines biblical wisdom with evidence-based somatic practices so you can experience both spiritual peace and physical relief. Too often, women feel forced to choose between prayer and practical solutions. My coaching shows how they reinforce each other. By listening to your body's signals (Ask the Ache™), practicing nervous system regulation, and aligning with God's design for wholeness, you gain a roadmap that honors both faith and science.
I don't replace your medical care — I bridge the gaps with a holistic, faith-rooted framework that doctors don't have time to teach. Physicians and therapists are vital, but most only address one layer: physical or emotional. My Pain Authority™ coaching integrates six pillars — nutrition, movement, mindset, emotions, environment, and faith. Through Sacred Somatic Discipleship™, I guide you to release trauma stored in the body while also anchoring your identity in Christ.
Most clients begin noticing relief in the first 30 days, with deeper transformation unfolding over 3–6 months. Pain patterns don't shift overnight, but they do shift with consistent, guided support. In the early weeks, you may notice less anxiety, fewer flare triggers, and more resilience. By 90 days, clients often experience a new relationship with their pain. At 6 months, many step fully into their role as Pain Authorities — equipped to calm their nervous systems, steward their bodies, and live abundantly beyond diagnosis.
Not at all. My coaching complements your medical plan — whether you're on medication, post-surgery, or deciding what's next. The Pain Authority™ method isn't about rejecting doctors. It's about helping you steward your healing in partnership with them. Coaching equips you with tools like strategic nutrition, emotional processing, and faith practices that can support medical interventions and make recovery smoother. You stay in control of your choices, with my support reinforcing them.
Because the Pain Authority™ model doesn't just treat symptoms; it transforms how you see, respond to, and lead yourself through pain. Most programs target the body or the mind. Pain Authority™ works at the intersection of spirit, soul, and body. We use the Forgiven Five™ framework to reframe your story, build emotional resilience, and create practical rhythms that last. When you stop fighting pain as the enemy and start leading it with authority, you unlock shifts that no single pill, diet, or therapy session could achieve alone.
I work with Christian women whose lives have been disrupted by chronic pain — from endometriosis to autoimmune conditions — who are ready to lead their healing with faith and authority. My clients include women like Emily, the high-achieving professional burnt out by flare cycles; Tanya, the survivor rebuilding spiritual safety; and Grace, the sensitive seeker craving nervous system peace. Whether diagnosed or still searching for answers, they share one thing: the readiness to stop suffering silently and step into authority.
Coaching is a co-created process, not a quick fix — your results depend on your engagement, but I guarantee you won't walk the journey alone. Unlike products, services can't be returned. That's why I offer a consultation first — to ensure alignment before you invest. What I guarantee is a structured, faith-rooted framework, compassionate accountability, and tools you can use for a lifetime.
