What Perfectionism Taught Me About Marketing with Savannah

On today’s episode of Shift Happens I sit down with Savannah — a pastor’s kid, the oldest daughter, and someone who learned early that being “good” often meant being exceptional. Excellence wasn’t just encouraged in her world — it was expected. And over time, that striving didn’t just shape who she was personally… it shaped how she showed up professionally. That same drive for precision, performance, and getting it right helped her rise quickly in the marketing world — building a reputation for clarity, strategy, and results, and helping businesses communicate in a way that actually connects and converts. But behind the success is a deeper tension we unpack today: how her upbringing wired her for perfection, how that fueled both her growth and her burnout, and what she’s learned about showing up differently — not just in life, but in business. This is Savannahs story. RESOURCES  FREE STORY METHOD GUIDE- to help you process, own and share your story  FOLLOW @alexisnandra @shifthappensthepod RESOURCES FREE STORY METHOD GUIDE- to help you process, own and share your story  FOLLOW@alexisnandra @shifthappensthepod
