Earth & Shore, Shannon Wallace Ross

 

Dedicated to a life led with heart and intuition, in reverence
to the natural world & the divinity and hilarity of it all

Expressing my unique song & enjoying
my unfolding of fulfillment & flow

I love the creative transformational process

I have held classes & circles with a focus on breath, meditation, yoga, dance,
the chakras, the seasons, the cycles, the elements, art, and alchemy 

I have taught workshops on jewelry making, watercolor painting, mandala drawing,
macrame wall hangings & plant holders, weaving, & flower crowns

I have written two poetry books and made hundreds of unique pieces of
jewellery & interiors

I have been an interior designer & decorated storefronts & yoga studios

I love supporting connection for positive momentum

I have a background hiring, training, and placing young professionals in local
community organizations, managing employment programs for youth at risk,
being a vocational counsellor for the local health authority and the national
mental health association, and as a mentorship interviewer, matchmaker
and advisor for women and girls

I love stepping through the archway to the next evolution
