For Mothers and Others
Your life is unique, but we bet you can relate to Shannon’s story. You might not have grown up in South Central LA during the crack epidemic and riots. You might not have lost your little brother to a tragic accident when you were nine years old. You might not have started AdultHood as a teen mom on welfare. But your experiences have likely left you with some of the same problematic patterns and challenges Shannon had to overcome.
Do you make decisions based on fear, uncertainty, chaos, or division? (Yes, that spells FUCD.)
Do you find yourself worrying about worst-case outcomes?
Do you ever feel like others are holding you back?
If you’re nodding your head right now, then you’re in VictimHood—and that’s a tough place to be. Shannon spent plenty of time there herself, and it took her many years and a lot of self-exploration and hard work to leave it behind. And she wants to share the how with you.
In this book, Shannon gives you the tools that have worked for her and shows you that everything you need to live a joyful life is already inside you. She invites you to learn from her experiences, gain from her growth, and join her on her Conqueror’s Journey.

Key Insights from this Book
Joy can be birthed from hardship. Our past challenges are a source of strength for the present moment.
VictimHood is the crappy place we end up when life doesn’t go our way. Learning how to manage our emotions starts with recognizing when we don’t feel good about being ourselves.
True compassion changes the way we live and interact with others. When we stop telling ourselves comforting lies, we pave the way for forgiveness of self and others.
Fear is our imagination working against us. Once we learn how to acknowledge what we’re afraid of, we can let it go.
Your life can always have a different finish. Just because we start in one place—or are born into one life—we can still have a much different ending.
