"A few months ago, I thought I was just never going to be "normal" and that this terrible, debilitating anxiety was a life sentence. It has not be an easy road, but I can honestly say I am on the path to recovery. I have overcome so many fears and obstacles that were holding me back. It is amazing what some empathy and encouragement from someone who knows how you feel can do! It has been so long since I felt this way! I still have anxiety, but it's different. It doesn't ruin my day like it used to. I haven't had a panic attack in months, but even if I did, I think I would be able to just let it happen and move on with my day. I have started traveling again, joining new clubs and activities, and feel so much excitement for the future. Shannon helped me really put into perspective my "why"- which is to experience all of life's adventures, the good ones and the hard ones and not let anxiety dictate my future. But my most treasured result from working with Shannon is that I feel like I am a calmer, stronger, happier mommy to my kiddos. The ability to wake up and feel empowered to take on whatever the day brings brings me so much peace, which in turn makes for a happier home. Forever grateful :)"
