Come Home to What’s True in You

The journey to your most authentic life means remembering who you are and defining what truly matters to you — even when the world, or your thoughts, try to tell you otherwise.

In a world of constant change, coaching is a space to come home to yourself — to what’s real, steady, and true.

Why This Work Matters

Coaching isn’t about fixing you — it’s about returning to the wisdom you already carry inside you. We are born with an inner compass — our heart, mind, body, and spirit working together to guide us where we are meant to go.

And how do you know you’re moving in the right direction? You feel freedom. Together, we quiet the noise, reconnect with what matters most. When you move from what’s deeply true, clarity, ease, and purpose follow naturally.

What Clients Say After Finding Their North Star

Shannon is a deeply transformational coach! I can walk into a session struggling with a big decision, unable to untangle what feels like a confusing knot of thoughts and feelings... and walk away with complete clarity about the right thing for me to do. I am so grateful for her deep wisdom and skill that helps me find my center and lead in the direction I know is right.

- W.G., Public Health Director/Mom

As I make a major transition over the next year, Shannon Yu’s coaching has helped me immensely to move forward with deliberation and purpose. I have learned so much about how to discover what is most important to me and to reflect on what I most value. I’m so grateful for Shannon’s guidance in visualizing and navigating this new and exciting path into a fulfilling future.

Meet Shannon

My life has taken me through corporations and public sector - but the real map of my life is written in quiet trails, meaningful work, and moments of deep connection.

Coaching found me through lived experience and deep listening, and I believe it is a sacred space to return to what’s real.

My work blends reflection, values, and forward movement.
