#21 Defining Success For Yourself: Align Your Online Course Business With Your Values and Priorities

What does success really mean to you? Is it about hitting six-figure launches, or is it something more personal—like picking your kids up from school every day, staying healthy, or building a legacy?

In this episode, Shannon takes you on a reflective journey to explore how success isn’t just about the numbers. Through personal stories and fresh insights, she challenges the idea of a one-size-fits-all definition and helps you uncover what success looks like for you.

Get ready to rethink your goals and design a business that truly supports the life you want to live. Whether you’re dreaming of more time for family, better health, or simply enjoying the ride, this episode will inspire you to align your course business with what matters most.

Plus, Shannon shares a candid moment about her own struggles with balance this year—and the changes she’s making to prioritize her well-being in the year ahead.

In this episode, Shannon covers:

• The mindset shift you need to define success on your own terms.
• How to create a business that works for your life, not the other way around.
• Personal reflections, actionable questions, and the inspiration to dream bigger (or smaller—whatever feels right for you).
