Your coach, mentor and career partner

She founded Walk of Life, the first-of-its kind international career advisory business focused solely on corporate sustainability and ESG, more than 15 years ago.

As an ICF-certified executive coach accredited in the Leadership Circle Profile™, Shannon was selected as a meta coach for the Goleman Emotional Intelligence certification program. She is a published author of the book "Good Work" and has been a GreenBiz columnist for more than 10 years.

I can't say enough about how valuable Shannon was to my job search. Her vast knowledge of today's sustainability landscape allowed her to quickly guide me toward the niche that best fit my skills. She coached me through her logical process to develop better search strategies and marketing materials. I am now much more confident in how I represent myself. Shannon is also a pleasure to work with - I really couldn't have asked for a better career coaching experience.

What more is there to say than Shannon is beyond talented at what she does. Her insights into how I was relaying my message as well as the technical, hands-on support in reimagining my CV, LinkedIn and communication strategies, were, and still are, invaluable. Not only am I grateful for Shannon's professionalism, skill-sets, and know-how, but also to know she is out there pushing forward impact-driven careers.

Shannon was one of the first people who encouraged me as I pivoted into a career in sustainability over a decade ago. She knows the skills, certifications and recruiters needed to be a leader in this space. The Walk of Life community and Impact Leaders Lab that she's pioneered has been invaluable for me over the years.
