    STORYPOWER TV INTERVIEW J LOREN NORRIS WITH DAWN SHANNON

    Transformational speaker and Results Coach Dawn Shannon shares her empowering message for high-achieving leaders who are ready to stop running on empty and start leading with clarity, energy, and purpose.

    Dawn works with visionary leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals who feel pulled in too many directions—constantly busy, yet still not seeing the results they know they’re capable of. She helps them Reclaim Their Time, Optimize Their Energy, and finally Finish What Matters Most so they can lead with confidence and focus. Her approach cuts through the noise of hustle culture—what she calls the “92% Trap”—and helps leaders build real momentum through alignment, not overwork.

    Her signature approach to focused leadership is grounded in years of experience helping overwhelmed achievers shift from survival mode to intentional success. She highlights the power of saying yes to what truly matters—and no to what drains you, distracts you, or keeps you stuck in cycles of burnout and busyness.

    Dawn challenges the belief that success requires doing more. Instead, she helps her audience and clients focus on what actually moves the needle—so they can finish what they start and experience true freedom in both business and life.

    Listeners will resonate with Dawn’s relatable, down-to-earth style as she speaks directly to the internal struggles of high-capacity leaders: the constant pressure to perform, the fear of letting go, and the belief that rest must be earned. Her insights reframe the narrative that hustle equals success—and offer a healthier, more powerful alternative.

    Dawn’s story and message are a timely reminder: you don’t have to do it all to be successful—you just have to do the right things with focused intention.

    If you’ve been feeling pulled in every direction, or telling yourself, “I’ll slow down when things settle down,” this is your wake-up call. Dawn’s message will leave you not only inspired—but equipped—with a new lens on time, energy, and the power of focused follow-through.
