Her dad was an addict and as such Shauna grew up very fast. For much of her young life, she felt unsafe in her own home.  Their home was broken into more than seven times, and they took everything, including the plastic jewelry from her jewelry box.   She talks about what it was like being a kid. And while life was hard, she shares how they found joy and laughter.  She also shares how she got to have a relationship with her dad, but how her forgiveness had to happen after his death. How do you forgive someone who's no longer here to accept that forgiveness. Shauna tells us how she did it.  This conversation is so rich. She  offers advice to parents going through similar situations and how they can help their kids. She  also shares  what to do when you feel burnt out as a single parent. Shauna is a single mom of 3 beautiful kids, a life coach for moms, and an IR Technologist.  She is an adventure seeker with hiking, traveling and exploring new places along with making memories with her family and friends.  She loves helping others and believes that working towards being our best selves, filling ourselves up first and leading by example is the light that starts that ripple effect to others, especially our kiddos.  If you want to connect more with Shauna here are a few ways:Website  or email at [email protected]: Shauna with Ignited DecisionsInstagram: ignited_decisionsOr check out her podcast Release Your Inner PowerThe information presented on this podcast is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose or prescribe for any medical or psychological condition, nor to prevent, treat, mitigate or cure any such conditions.
