Shannon Baynes
Certified Purpose and Mindset Coach
Why did I become a coach?…. To give back to society. My cup is full and I have so much to give. I love to help people reconnect with their soul, work through challenges and make positive change.
You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step."

My Story
-
I grew up in Atlanta, GA and spent all of my childhood days on a horse’s back, competing and traveling the US.
-
I attended Vanderbilt University and graduated with a BS in Human and Organizational Development.
-
Upon graduating, I moved back to Atlanta and pursued my passion of helping others by working at various non-profit organizations varying from the 1996 Olympic Games to CARE (a large international relief organization) to Chastain Horse Park (a hands-on therapeutic horseback riding program).
-
I met and married the love of my life and started a family - three boys in five years! Plus multiple furry children.
-
While the boys were still very young, we followed our outdoor passions and small town values and moved to Park City, Utah.
-
The next 18 years were a beautiful blur of sports, camping, school, friends, mountains, fostering animals and wonderful worldly adventures (including 6 months in Australia!).
-
The boys are now amazing young men and my husband and I are “empty-nesters.”
-
My next phase in life is all about bringing more happiness to the world through coaching. I chose to get certified through the Jay Shetty Coaching School because I resonate with Jay's coaching approach and mindset. He is one of the most relevant and best known coaches/influencers in the industry today.
