Before this podcast found its voice and I decided I wanted specifically to feature women who have been stigmatized or shamed for being quote unquote bad girls (my favorite kind) I had the idea to feature people who were in transition. So. I put a call out on Instagram for stories. Hundreds responded. It was so overwhelming it took me weeks to go through every email. I ultimately decided to go in a slightly different direction but Shannon, who responded to my original call for stories of transition was ALSO VERY ALIGNED with what I wanted to explore here on NO SHAME and I am THRILLED that she agreed to talk to me today because she is one of the bravest women I have ever met and when you hear her tell her story today you are going to absolutely understand why. 

If you have a story of No Shame, I want to hear it. Please email me at [email protected]
