This is a place of stories

This is a place of stories

where the white picket fence ends,
& real stories begin

i'm shannon

I've spent most of my life outside of what you'd imagine behind a white picket fence - meaning I've spent more time in the muck of life than I was ever prepared for.
From early childhood, to being a young wife and mom, to parenting a teen - many of my experiences haven't looked felt or ended up like others around me. It's felt hard and lonely to look up and not often see my life reflected back at me in the lives of those around me.
The ache of feeling alone has become the reason I share. My story won't match yours completely - but if even one piece of what I've lived through or am living with makes you feel a little less alone, a little more seen - that's everything.
This space is for you. For us. A place for you to feel embraced in the experiences that have left you feeling or wondering if you're the only one.
