Enlivening the Genius in Your People, Your Culture and You.
Change Resilience
Today, shifts and volatility are the new normal, and navigating change can be tough. Practicing spontaneity and collaboration skills can help you and your teams come out the other side with a commitment to your work, continued wellbeing and overall resilience.
Communicating with Impact
Honing skills around intentional listening, curiosity, storytelling and a 'yes' mindset will equip you and your teams to remain agile and confident while delivering presentations, talking with clients and leading with impact in your organization.
Connective Engagement
Only a third of employees, globally, feel a level of meaningful engagement at work.* They expect empathy and trust to define office culture. Flexing skills around awareness, non-judgment and interdependence will keep your employees energized and fueled for success.
EnlivenUp!
Being human is a wild and crazy feat, laden with all sorts of opportunities for growth and adventure. Every moment we're presented with offers to engage with life through curiosity, vulnerability and creative expression. All we need to do is say, "yes".
Using modalities like storytelling, play, movement, writing and mindfulness, EnlivenUp! sessions are designed to support authentic connection and whole-self presence. The work may be light-hearted and fun, or it might nurture deeper personal discovery. It all depends on our theme, and what's in the room when the group is together.
About
Hi there! I’m Shannon and I want to connect and learn with you.
Um...why? you might be asking. You don’t even know me. True, but I'd venture to guess you're here because:
you are a conscious leader ready to ignite the genius of your people so they can fly.
you have a vision for your company’s culture, that propels you into the work you do with impact and influence.
you value transparency, thrive on discovery and nurture your community with inclusivity and heart.
Am I right? Great, you're in the right place.
Because I stand for those things too. That's why I founded Enlivened Studios -- a consultancy and training practice that uses experiential techniques that embolden you to live fully, lead consciously and impact the world.
Let's connect! I think we have a lot to learn from one another.
The bio version of what I do: I am culture consultant and experiential trainer with a calling to enliven the innate genius, creative resourcefulness and easeful collaboration in businesses of all shapes and sizes. In my practice, Enlivened Studios, I bring strategic business mentorship and experiential teaching practices to break down cross-team silos and embolden transformational leadership.
With 20+ years of corporate marketing and HR strategy experience, plus a lifetime of proven leadership, performance and creative devotion, Shannon combines skill + heart into every Enlivened Studios session. Through this work, she's on a mission to help people live fully, lead consciously and impact the world with joy and collective aliveness.

BUSINESS TRAININGS
Are you looking to increase productivity and retention through impactful employee engagement? Maybe you're on-boarding new talent who are brand new to your company culture. Or perhaps your sales team is passionate and hungry to perform well and meet their goals, but they need a little nudge of agility and confidence.
Business retreats are designed with your company's dynamics, market challenges and growth goals top of mind. The sessions are a well-curated mix of guided exercises and insightful debriefs, providing your teams with the tools they need to be change agents in your business; all within an inclusive, safe and playful space.
LEADERSHIP COACHING
Do you struggle with public speaking, delivering charismatic presentations or finding fluidity in your communication with your manager, clients or family? In our 1:1 coaching sessions, we’ll use on-your-feet learning exercises to shush that noisy inner critic, practicing spontaneity and communicating with confidence. The take-away is a robust goody bag of skills to relate more fully with the world.
SPEAKING AT YOUR EVENT
A born performer, and student of acting and writing most of her life -- the stage is where Shannon comes alive. This, combined with 20+ years in corporate marketing where she delivered business pitches and brand strategies to hundreds of Fortune 500 leaders, positions Shannon perfectly to speak at your event. Her keynotes are a unique blend of talk + experiential learning, getting audiences on their feet and engaged with one another as a collective. Themes have included change resilience, millennial employee engagement, generative creativity for growth and intentional awareness/listening.
CULTURE CONSULTING
Is it time to have a deeper look into your people programs to assess what’s working brilliantly, and fix what’s not? Perhaps you’ve been onboarding new clients virtually and want to be sure you make a stellar impression through company trainings. Or the power of your organization’s values is not yet fully integrated into the hearts and minds of your staff. Consulting takes a deep dive into your current culture landscape to identify areas of improvement — across the entire employment continuum — so that you attract, nurture and retain the talent you need to shine.
CUSTOM
RETREATS
Need something new and different to bring to your team offsite? Maybe your wellness or writing retreat needs a lively session to boost creativity and sharing. No matter the theme, the learning your group will experience through Enlivened Studios' interactive workshops is the greatest antidote. We will conduct an intake session beforehand, to identify the best way to craft a session that is both relevant and resonant - leaving your team sparked with a usable "toolkit" they can pull from time and again.
