Episode 20 - From Frustration to Fulfillment: Shannon's Transition to MFR

In this episode, host Unu interviews Shannon Whittall, a licensed massage therapist with 25 years of experience who shares her journey into practicing Myofascial Release (MFR). Shannon explains how she transitioned from deep tissue massage to MFR after attending a seminar by John Barnes that left her "completely blown away" by the healing potential of the gentle techniques.

Shannon's spiritual faith plays a significant role in her MFR practice, as she believes the work is "spirit-led" and has witnessed miraculous results that go beyond the physical. She emphasizes the importance of starting each day with intention and seeking guidance from the Holy Spirit to deepen her connection to the work and help her clients.

The conversation also delves into the challenges of transitioning from a supportive seminar environment to running a solo practice, highlighting the importance of persistence, consistency, and learning from failures. Shannon shares how her partnership with her husband has strengthened her business, as his grounded approach complements her visionary spirit. \

The episode concludes with Shannon sharing information on her MFR practice in San Diego, California, and Unu offering assistance to MFR practitioners looking to build their own websites. Throughout the conversation, the hosts stress the importance of authenticity, intentionality, and embracing growth opportunities in pursuing a passion for Myofascial Release.
