THE
BEHIND THE BIZ
20 ENTREPRENEUR moms YOU’LL LOVE
MMIA: How did you get started in
your business?
SHANNON: I recognized my true
gift of writing and allowed it to tell
creative, technical, business and social
stories. I started as my own client and
then it involved into an ever-growing
client base.
MMIA: How long did you stay stuck
in the “start-up stage” of your business
and what did you do to get “unstuck”?
SHANNON: I always get “stuck”, but
that’s a magical place because it allows
me to re-envision my business and its
purpose and develop new services and
ideas. As far as building
my business, I was stuck with the
“details” of what it would be for a few
months. T hen I started taking action
to just live through my gift of writing
and I slowly became “unstuck” with
the idea of what I’m supposed to be
doing.
MMIA: Do you ever regret your
decision to become a full-time
entrepreneur?
SHANNON: Never. I do regret not
being more faithful in the beginning
of my entrepreneurial journey. H
