This Thing Called Wellness

🎙️ Welcome to This Thing Called Wellness — Helping Women Heal, Rediscover, and Reclaim Their Joy—One Conversation at a Time.

I’m Shannon Martin—Certified Health and Wellness Coach, mental health advocate, and a woman who's spent over 11 years healing through depression, anxiety, and panic disorder. 💚

Now in this new season of life, I’m rediscovering who I am beyond the roles I’ve held—mother, caregiver, wife—and reconnecting with the woman I’m becoming. This Thing Called Wellness was born from that journey. It's a heart-centered space for women navigating life transitions, burnout, or simply figuring out what comes next in this “other half” of life.

Every other Wednesday, join me for soul-stirring conversations with inspiring guests and women who’ve walked through the fire and found healing on the other side. Together, we share real stories, gentle wisdom, and practical tools to help you reconnect with yourself—emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically. 🌿

Whether you’re rebuilding your life, reclaiming your peace, or just beginning to ask, “Who am I now?”—you are not alone. This space is for you. ✨

Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio, Amazon Music, YouTube, and wherever you tune in.

Here’s to healing, rediscovery, and embracing your next chapter—together. 🌟
