One of the barbell sports that is gainining in popularity is Strongman (or in this case StrongWOman). Shannon Smith found powerlifting and then her love shifted to strongman in 2017. Rising in the ranks, Shannon won Worlds Strongest Woman in 2021 just after the COVID shutdowns.

Knowing she always wanted to have a family and having reached her sport goal, her and her husband decided to try to start a family.

Shannon is currently 33 weeks (at the time of this episode) pregnant with her first child  and competing in a POWERLIFTING meet. She is a baddie in so many respects but she is also completing her training with HYPEREMESIS GRAVIDARUM. Hyperemesis is a condition in pregnancy that makes you feel like you have the flu... every single day!
