In this episode of the Love Strength, Strengthens Love podcast, host Shavonda Marie sits down with Savannah Burks for an empowering conversation about the transformative power of life coaching, alignment, and finding your purpose through personal healing. Clarity doesn't always come from the outside; sometimes it has to rise within you. But how do you bridge the gap between being a "warrior" and a successful "CEO" when life's challenges feel overwhelming?

Join Shavonda Marie as she introduces her own life coach and "extra special guest," Savannah Burks. Savannah is a wellness life coach, author, nurse, and the founder of the nonprofit Lupus Has No Face. In this episode, they dive deep into


The "Why" Behind the Coach: Savannah shares her journey of being diagnosed with lupus at age 12 and how the lack of support led her to create the very tools she needed to thrive.

Life Coaching vs. Therapy: Understanding the difference—where therapy often processes the past, life coaching provides the active tools to solve problems and achieve alignment in the present.

Defining True Success: Moving beyond materialistic goals to celebrate the personal milestones created through consistency and persistence.

The Power of Vulnerability: Why high achievers, including doctors and lawyers, need coaching to address the areas of life where they are not operating at their best. It’s time to take off the layers and identify who you really are!
