Build Your Passion

"Investing is Shawna’s BYP has been one of the best decision I’ve made for myself! Her extensive knowledge, care and understanding of what it takes to build your passion is impressive to say the least. I had been sitting on my passions and ideas not knowing how to move forward for over 5 years. When I saw that Shawna was offering a program to help bring these ideas to life, I did not hesitate. Her program is easy to follow and offers incredible insights on how to build a thriving business based on her first hand experience. She also offers endless support and encouragement which truly helped me get through some heavy self doubts and uncertainties I faced along the way. I’m proud to say, with Shawna’s help, I have finally built and launched my website and created and ran my first bigger offering (an online program with five participants). I continue to grow and expand my passion projects with greater ease and awareness having taken Shawna’s course and am running my program again in one month. I look forward to continue working with Shawna and am ever grateful for her continued support! "

- Natalie Rogers from Keep Expanding

"I am so grateful for Shawna’s guidance and the learnings within the Build Your Passion course. Since enrolling a couple months ago I have become much more confident posting on my social media page and have built a strong brand that I am proud of. Shawna’s course takes you step-by-step through the process of becoming a leader, building confidence in your craft, tips for growing your community and creating your offer from start to finish. Since being in the program I've created a social media platform, a website, I run monthly soul circle classes and retreats, I've signed my first two private coaching clients and I'm currently building my first online program! Her monthly Biz Social Circles are a great way to build confidence, share experiences with others and not feel alone in the journey to entrepreneurship. I am SO happy I said yes. This course is just what I needed. Thank you so much Shawna!"

- Meredith Litchy from Movement With Meredith

...with a small obsession with entrepreneurship.

8 years ago, I was a full-time nurse...

until 1 year into the job I looked around and thought "no way am I doing this forever"...

Plus, I had bigger dreams that were deep within my heart and I knew I could serve people more powerfully in my own ways.

By following the nudges and taking strategic action, I've shifted dreams into reality by replacing my full-time nursing career with full-time abundant entrepreneurship (bringing in over $300,000 this year so far).

It all started back in 2014 when I began running community meditation classes. In 2014 I also started working privately with women, teaching stress reduction techniques and spiritual concepts to help with mental & emotional health.

From 2014-2018, my business didn't generate very much income - (I was one foot in the door and one foot out). Deep down though, I knew I was much more aligned to being an entrepreneur and teaching what I was passionate about versus being a nurse.

In 2019, everything shifted. I hired a new business coach, worked through a business program and implemented the step-by-step actions that were laid out. I restructured my business, my services and offerings and the way I marketed. By 2020 I made just under 6 figures in my business. 2021 was my first year that I brought in over 6 figures in my business and in 2022, I've brought in (so far) over $300,000 (cue the celebrating!)

This journey though, hasn't involved a game of guessing. Over the past 8 years, I've invested in and worked with leading entrepreneurial experts in business building, course creation, email marketing, social media marketing & brand building.

I go into the hospital now, on my own terms...to say hi to co-workers and to see if the coffee has changed.

Build Your Passion teaches you the step-by-step process on how I created everything from the ground up.

"I am so happy that I made the investment to join the Build Your Passion Program. I had been searching to find the perfect program that would help me gain clarity on how to turn my passion into a business. This program was it! The way that the course is put together is easy to follow and implement. For the first time ever I feel I have a clear direction towards my goals. Not only has this program helped me create a clear vision, it has helped me to grow as a person pushing me to be my best self and confront any fears that have been holding me back. Shawna has been an incredible coach. She is patient and genuinely cares. She has been there every step of the way to answer all of my questions and guide me to problem solve along the way. I love the 1:1 sessions with Shawna and the monthly Biz circles create such a wonderful community where you can really connect and share thoughts and ideas with others. Joining this program was a game changer for me and I highly recommend working with Shawna!"

- Chrissa Carrrier from Chrissa Carrier Coaching

"Working with Shawna has been life-transforming. I completed Radiant Mind Academy in 2020 and then moved onto Build Your Passion. Since being in Build Your Passion, I've created my own business and I'm currently creating my first online program that I'll be offering in the fall. Build Your Passion walks you through every step needed to create a business, create your services and create your platform. This program has been perfect for me and has allowed me to actually take action on my ideas and goals. Highly recommend Shawna and highly recommend Build Your Passion if you're looking to bring a service, class, program or creation into the world!"

- Becky Salter from Sovereign One Society

You might be stuck in the comparison trap... Or rehearsing the 100 reasons why you're not good enough to do the things you want to do. Sound familiar? I've been there too! When I finally decided to change the narrative and STOP listening to my limiting beliefs, I was then able to begin creating, building and actually sharing my gifts and service with the world. We all have something to offer and we all connect to different people through our unique personality, past story and ways we can enhance their lives. And plus, the more service-based, supportive leaders we have out there, the more impact and change we're able to create.

Many of us get stuck on taking action from a deep fear that if the ball starts rolling, we won't actually be able to handle it. We fear we'll get overwhelmed... that we won't know next steps...that we won't have enough time to build what needs to be built or take care of the back end of business. We fear that we might fail and be shown...we're actually NOT a good leader. Our mind jumps to thinking, "how embarrassing would that be?" ...But everything is "figure-outable". As an entrepreneur, you learn as you go... And with every action, you become stronger and more comfortable, enabling you to take the next steps after that. Business building is best done at a pace that works for you. And having support, helps get all your questions & unknowns ANSWERED.

"I am half way through my "Build Your Passion" experience with Shawna and loving every moment! I am a big picture thinker and have a huge vision for the way I would like to serve and impact my community. I have tried several other coaching programs to implement this vision, but have found it difficult to translate the big vision into 'bite sized' implementable steps. In the past, I would quickly become overwhelmed and my progress would deteriorate and stop. In Build Your Passion, Shawna has broken down exactly what you need to do to get clear on your vision and implement in step-by-step manageable, systematic way. I am making steady, meaningful progress towards launching my business this Fall! Instead of feeling overwhelmed, I feel energized and inspired. I love the monthly Biz Circles too - it's an opportunity to connect with other like-hearted entrepreneurs and share the ups and downs of working towards launching a business. It has been an added layer that has contributed to my inspiration and focus. Finally, an aspect of Shawna's program that brings it all to another level is her focus on personal growth and tools to support this growth (i.e. Law of Attraction work, establishing a morning routine, Guided Meditation AND super valuable 1-1 coaching sessions.) This has been a wonderful component to ground all of the implementation work and to maintain my energy and focus. Shawna's Build Your Passion is a well-paced program and jam packed with value - I would recommend it to anyone who has a big vision, but isn't sure exactly how to implement it - Build Your Passion is your Blueprint!"

- Sarah Madamba from The Mindful Job Seeker

"I decided to join Shawna's Build Your Passion program immediately after having a consult call with her and started with a non-existent business. Shawna helped me discover the potential I had to help others by guiding me through some limiting beliefs. The program opened my eyes up even more! Great content with easy to apply action steps that help you create a business unique to your gifts. The monthly social circle for the program members is a fantastic addition. We share wins, struggles and ideas about our journey - One of my favorite meetings of the month. Since joining Build Your Passion, I've ran my first pilot group coaching program that I created from scratch and I've signed my first two 1:1 coaching clients, teaching them concepts and practices that have helped me in my life. Shawna makes the creation of services easy to follow. Highly recommend this program! "
