With a busy career and a family she was working hard to keep it all

going, then everything fell apart.  In 2013 she lost her

seemingly healthy mom unexpectedly, to a massive heart attack. They were

sharing a coffee in the morning and that afternoon she was performing CPR

on her mom trying to save her life.  Shari's life was changed in an instant. Then one year later

her then 10 yr. old son was in ICU fighting for his life and was diagnosed with a severe case of Diabetic Ketoacidosis, which ultimately led to her learning he had Type 1 Diabetes. She learned that

his condition was so critical in the hospital that he narrowly escaped with his life. Her life was turned upside down again. And then just 5 years later her never sick Dad went from healthy to fighting for his life from a fatal blood infection in an afternoon...and died that same day.  It seemed that without warning her life was turned upside down....again and again and again.  In a five year period she lost 6 other family members and friends suddenly without warning. 

 

She began to question every part of her life, asking "What now?" "What next?". Answers didn't come quickly. The loud and clear message she kept hearing was.... life grants us zero promises and we don't have all the time in the world to "be", "do" or "have" all that we desire.

​

In time she learned to DO Success & Life differently because she decided that a life without meaning, happiness & the important stuff was a waste of precious time.

​

She realized that moving products and pushing sales agendas wasn't how she wanted to use her skills or how she wanted to help people.  She wanted to "move people", "push" missions--and find real meaning in life.  She wanted her work and life to move "her" again....so she fired most of her clients and started helping non-profits, passionate entrepreneurs, start-ups and mission based organizations start their movements and change the world.  It was time to build a life instead of a resume!  And now it's her ongoing journey.
