Book Shannon for Your Event or Podcast

If you have an audience of service providers that needs to know more about pricing, money mindset or marketing, I'm your girl! 

I *really* love to talk about what keeps service providers from experiencing the freedom, flexibility and financial independence they started their businesses for in the first place… and how to fix it!

Whether it's a podcast, summit, workshop, panel, in-person or virtual event, I bring the insight, the step-by-step strategy, and the permission slips your audience didn’t know they needed.

If you want someone who can inspire, educate, and make your audience feel seen and take action… let's chat about how we can put together something your audience won’t stop talking about.

Pricing Mindset Makeover​

Whether your audience wants to raise prices, figure out what to charge, or just stop undercharging and overdelivering, they'll learn an entirely new way to think about their pricing so they can charge premium prices without the guilt.

  • Pricing Paradigms and how to leverage them.
  • How to sell yourself first.
  • How to find clients willing to pay what you want to charge.

ANCHOR HIGH: The Package Matrix Strategy

Perfect for audiences of service-based business owners who are undercharging and overworking.

In this session, I teach my signature Package Matrix™ Strategy—a simple, powerful framework that helps business owners simplify their offers and increase revenue without adding more to their already overflowing plate.

This talk is both mindset-shifting and deeply practical. Your audience will:

  • Identify the hidden pricing and delivery traps that cap their income (even when they’re “successful”)
  • Learn a new approach to pricing that removes emotion and uncertainty.
  • Understand price anchoring to confidently price premium packages—and actually sell them.

Custom Topics for Your Audience

 Every audience is different—and I believe the best talks meet people exactly where they are.

If you're planning an event, summit, podcast, or workshop and you're not sure one of my signature topics is the perfect fit, I’m happy to craft a custom session tailored specifically to your audience’s goals, challenges, and level of experience.

Whether your audience needs a money mindset reset, a next-level breakthrough, or a practical plan to take their next step—I’ll build a talk that’s clear, empowering, and aligned with what they need most right now.

Let’s collaborate to create something powerful and personalized.
