Short bio

Copy bio ›

Our next guest will tell you she was doing everything right, but life didn’t feel right, so she changed that and create a purpose driven way of existence.

She’ll also tell you what it took to get there — an early launch into adulthood, climbing the career ladder, personal challenges with young children, and years of living with a rare chronic illness that doesn’t announce itself to anyone in the room.

What she built out of that is called Shelby on Purpose. She’s here to talk about waking up — what it costs, and what it’s worth.

Please welcome Shelby
