Shannon Clarke is an ICF-certified coach who helps high-achieving, purpose-driven 

women cultivate unshakeable confidence, self-belief, and joy as they make their unique 

mark on the world. Her journey into this transformative work began after experiencing a 

profound burnout as a senior leader in university student services, which ignited her 

passion for helping women reclaim their power. With a unique blend of education, 

storytelling, and soul-deep wisdom, Shannon guides her clients to create lasting change 

by fostering greater self-compassion, presence, and creative energy.
