I met Shannon at an IFA conference a few months backs. When I went to introduce myself I was so nervous however when I finally spoke to her, she made the conversation so easy and light. From that moment I knew I wanted her to mentor me. She’s a successful woman that has built a franchise from scratch and she is so genuine. Shannon guides you from her heart and gives you the tools to apply her knowledge with great care.
