About this listen

What do you do when you become someone you swore you’d never be?

In this powerful first episode of Out of Focus, Shannon Stewart—former America’s Next Top Model finalist and Miss Ohio USA runner-up—opens up about the slow unraveling that led to an affair she never imagined… and the mercy that met her in the middle of it.

This episode isn’t about defending what she did.

It’s about telling the truth—with honesty, humility, and hope.

In this episode, Shannon shares:

-A childhood encounter with Jesus that changed everything

-The pressure behind the “good girl” image

-Her battle with crippling anxiety

-The emotional drift that led to compromise

-How God carried her shame and began the process of restoration


This isn’t a comeback story.

It’s a grace story.

If you’ve ever questioned whether God could still use you after failure… this episode will remind you that shame doesn’t have the final say. God does.
