My career has evolved greatly over the past 25+ years. But one thing has always remained consistent, my core strengths. I’ve been a people person and a problem solver my whole life. I’ve been blessed with a passion to connect to, and support others. I have a talent for hearing someone explain their current challenge, and give that person some unique ideas for how to tackle them. It’s how I became an award-winning corporate coach back in 2006, and then created my own company, The Business of Marriage coaching program, that helped hundreds of high-performance couples with their marriages. Helping numerous orthodontists with their marriages, serendipitously crossed over into helping them with their practices and their “second wives”- the office manager relationship.
Before I knew it, I was coaching whole teams on how to elevate their relationships, their office culture and their mindsets. Noticing the lack of business training doctors receive while in dental school, led to me creating the Propreneur Path- a comprehensive curriculum and consulting program designed to give professionals like you the entrepreneur and intrapersonal skills to succeed in business and life.
In 2015 I wrote the international best-selling book, The Practice RX, which is the foundation of my philosophies on magnetic office culture and effective leadership. In 2019 I released Hire and Fire Like a Boss to help practice owners reduce the waste of time and money in the hiring process.
Helping teams excel continues to drive my passion for this industry. I love people! I’m grateful for the opportunity to surround myself with really cool people who teach me and challenge me to up my game constantly.
My other passions include Zumba dancing, bottomless chips and salsa, watching movies in an actual theatre (remember those days?), singing musicals or 80’s sitcom theme songs while cooking, and traveling to whatever exotic place is next on Shannon’s bucket list.
If you’re still reading this, you’re awesome! I hope our paths cross soon, I’m looking forward to meeting you.
November 2019 my wife, Shannon, came to me with an idea she got in the middle of the night. (She frequently gets great ideas at 4am) My client roster was almost maxed out. So the inspiration was to create The Propreneur Network, a virtual community that combined what I taught in my 3-day live mastermind and in- person coaching sessions, but in an online group format people all over the globe could experience it. Financial budget and time- intensive travel shouldn’t restrict people from accessing the value of the Proprenuer movement.
While I liked the idea, my coaching, speaking and travel schedule was filled to the brim and my response was to put it on the back burner and revisit in 6 months. But the Universe had other plans!
A few months later Covid happened FOR me, not to me. My calendar was cleared, the busyness of my business paused. I made a conscious decision to just serve where I could and try to be a lighthouse during a very tumultuous storm.
I went straight to work hosting multiple trainings on Facebook live sessions, creating free virtual events and adding value where possible. I gathered KOLs and great minds from varied companies to support the dental and orthodontic community in those unprecedented first few months of quarantine. The response was awesome! People shared ideas and crowdsourced solutions and felt validated when someone shared a thought that they were feeling too. The community created in such a short time was magical.
I don’t say this to brag, but to illustrate that I had been wrong all those months ago when I thought a group format couldn’t be as powerful as one-on-one interaction. I watched people embrace virtual learning and connecting to colleagues through the screen. I got to see firsthand how 1+1=3. I saw the power created when a group of like-minded individuals came together to workshop solutions to their challenges and support each other. I got to see fear and pessimism transformed into hope and optimism, and more importantly, into action. My paradigm shifted and I knew the network was the next evolution of my consulting business.
The interesting part is, I have personally belonged to networks and masterminds for years. From the Genius Network, to EO and even Strategic Coach, I have seen my personal businesses grow and thrive by being a member of a group coaching model, so of course it would work. Sometimes the thing you are looking for is right in front of you.
My team has been working diligently over the past few months to bring this inspired idea to fruition. And here we are now, out of the ashes of a pandemic, committed to creating the highest level mastermind for entrepreneurial dental specialists.
Our goal is to build enduring relationships and for our businesses to grow stronger, together.
