WORKING WITH YOUR MIND IS WHERE TO START
Every area of our lives (emotional wellbeing, relationships, health, finances, career, purpose) is deeply shaped by the state of our inner world.
When we’re caught in negative thought patterns, past wounds, limiting beliefs, emotional patterns, and inner stories, it affects how we feel within ourselves… and how life unfolds around us.
When you learn how to work with your mind & emotions, and when you learn how to connect to the healing and guiding power of Spirit/Source/The Universe—you can create powerful shifts in your life from the inside out.
And they can be SUBSTANTIAL. They were for me…
Hi, I'm Shawna!
MEDITATION TEACHER, IFS & PSYCHOSPIRITUAL COACH + MENTAL HEALTH NURSE (RN), Author of the light that shines through
With a history of depression and anxiety, and a decade of experience as a mental health nurse, much of my life has revolved around mental health and navigating darkness. In my teens and early twenties, I struggled with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and a deep sense of unworthiness. I often found myself stuck in relationships, environments, and mental patterns that didn’t serve me and kept me feeling small. Deep down, I knew my mind and emotions were caught in negative loops—telling stories that weren’t true and keeping me disconnected from my highest, most empowered, and aligned path.
At 22, I felt a powerful inner nudge. I felt that the darkness and negativity consuming me weren’t who I truly was. I no longer wanted those patterns running my life. I also began to worry about the kind of future I’d have if they did. Around the same time, a thought emerged: if the suffering was rooted in the mind, maybe the healing could begin there too. That moment cracked the door open to a deeply transformative journey.
Over the next 14 years, I immersed myself in healing. Meditation and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) were my first doorways to healing. Meditation opened me to the world of spirituality and I began experiencing a peace of mind like I had not before. I also began accessing my intuition more clearly and CBT helped me work with my thoughts and underlying belief systems.
I was so passionate about the shifts that in 2014, I began teaching meditation and did this alongside nursing for the next 4 years.
My Journey Then Went Deeper...
In 2018, I lost my brother to an accidental drug overdose. Grief and loss took me onto another deep healing and spiritual journey. I began reaching out to a higher power for healing and for help and when I did this, synchronistic events began to occur. New teachers and modalities entered by life such as Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT Tapping), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Inner Child Work, as well as Breathwork. These modalities helped me heal, find peace, and regain strength and personal power through a challenging phase of my life, and once again, I was astounded by the power of the mind and power of connecting to Source. This made me curious about using the mind’s power within other areas of my life…
In late 2018, I began studying and applying law-of-attraction and manifestation to the area of purpose, finances & career. When I did this, my life began shifting at a very rapid pace. My business began to thrive, I was able to leave my nursing job, and I stepped into greater abundance, alignment and prosperity.
I experienced very clearly: what we focus on within our mind and the energy we’re sitting in has a direct effect on our external world.
The work I now teach in Radiant Mind Academy is a fusion of these life-changing practices and modalities. I no longer call certain practices ‘manifestation’ – instead, what we’re doing is returning to and connecting to who we are in truth and to our true Source of love, peace, healing, expansion and abundance.
Whether you’re looking to improve your mood, heal from darkness or a challenging life phase, OR if you’re learning how to use the mind to create greater expansion, empowerment and step into your highest expression, RMA can help you get there. The program is a psychospiritual approach designed to create deep healing and transformation. It combines science-based and therapeutic modalities with spiritual concepts, theory and practices to create emotional healing, personal empowerment and expansion.
I’ve long been fascinated by the grip that negative thoughts, painful emotions, and limiting beliefs can have on our lives. I’ve witnessed the impact of darkness, and how it keeps us small, disconnected, and far from our true selves. But I’ve also seen the power of healing and working with the mind and your energy. It’s now my mission to help others learn how to navigate their inner world, how to work with the darkness instead of resist it, and how to use both the mind and spirituality to create greater peace, clarity, empowerment, expansion, and a life of deep alignment.
Welcome to Radiant Mind Academy! This is a sacred space and transformational journey to experience healing, come back to yourself, reclaim your power, and live from your soul’s highest expression.
