Have you ever known someone who can’t stand their job and all they ever seem to want to do is complain but never actually do something about it? Can I be honest with you? I’ve not only known someone like this, I've been someone like this. 😳
I spent years complaining about my 9-5 until I eventually noticed it was taking a serious toll on my mental health. I couldn’t bear being that person any longer. As much as I didn’t want to face it, I knew I was the only one who could do something about it.
So, even though it felt scary and overwhelming, I started working on becoming the professional portrait photographer I always wanted to be. Along the way, I discovered a coaching framework that helped me turn my passion for Portrait Photography into income and finally put all jobs and lifestyles that didn’t truly align with me in the past!
You read that right! Using the coaching framework I now teach in Thinking Grand, I have more than replaced the cosy salary I earned at my 9-5 with stream*s* of income that I love and am passionate about!!! (And now I direct most of my time and energy to creating rather than complaining, thank you very much. 😀)
I want you to imagine with me...
Loving your work so much that you're excited to pick it back up after time off.... Having the freedom to take time off whenever you want to.... Being in demand for the thing(s) you love to do... Consistently attracting dream clients and opportunities ...Feeling confident in your abundant cash flow...And clocking out of jobs you don't love once and for all!!
Those visions sound pretty dreamy, don't you think? What if I told you they don't have to exist solely in your imagination? And what if I told you that you already possess everything you need to turn your dreamy visions into your reality?
Thinking Grand is for you if:
Getting paid to do what you love is easier than you think! And contrary to popular beliefs, you don't need a degree in business to have your own successful business.
If you already know your way around your craft pretty well, your current experience and knowledge are enough to get started today!!
What if I told you starting to earn money doing what you love can be as simple as creating a single offer, telling the right people about it and getting comfortable selling yourself?
That's it! It really is that simple. So why does it seem so scary and hard? It's because human minds are conditioned to resist and fear change, even when the change is something we really, really want.
I know that stepping into the unknown can be scary as hell but let me tell you...
As someone who has turned my passion into income, I can go on and on about why it's so worth confronting the fears that get between us and our dreams.
For me the #1 reason is that achieving my goal of earning money doing what I love, something I would happily do for free, truly feels like hitting the jackpot in life.
I used to dread going into my 9-5 job and now I get to spend my days working on a business that is deeply meaningful to me and allows me to spend more of my life doing what I love while experiencing the fulfilment of making a difference in the lives of others.
To reach this point I had to start...thinking GRAND!
In this inspiring group program you start with the simple goal of making your investment back.
I'll walk you through every step and tell you everything you need to know to keep things simple so you can feel more relaxed in the early stages of getting paid to do what you love! I'll also tell you everything you don't need to do, so you don't lose focus on your goal.
In the beginning you might think you need the perfect website, a list of impressive clients, a business degree, thousands of followers, or a fancy studio filled with high-end equipment.
You don't! You can start earning money doing what you love with the equipment and resources you have access to now.
What I've learned along my journey of turning my passion into income is that knowing what to do and actually doing it are two different very things.
I've also learned that we are so much more likely to take action when we have guidance, support, accountability and structure from someone who has done it before. It makes the risk feel safer to explore.
Another valuable lesson I've learned is that it's a lot more fun and inspiring to take action when you're surrounded by other like-minded creatives who are also willing to do what it takes to reach their goals and live their dreams. We're all in this together and together we form a beautiful community.
This is a 6 month group coaching program with the option to renew if you would like to remain in the community after you've graduated. You can enrol anytime!

Thinking Grand takes you through a series of mindset and business lessons that pertain to the starting stage of earning money doing what you love.
Here are some of the topics you can expect:
Reaching a point where you feel so confident in your ability to attract money doing what you love that it finally feels safe to give your two-weeks notice to all other opportunities that simply do not light you up, once and for all.
Here's the truth - this is 100% possible for YOU but no one can create this reality for you, except you. The good news is, you don't have to do it alone. You can do it with the guidance and support from a coach and community if you start Thinking Grand today!
“Thinking Grand gave me the courage to go forward with my business. I wasn’t taking action before because I wasn’t feeling like I could do it and that I wasn't ready. I was always thinking “maybe later, you know, when I get better”. So this program actually made me do what I want to do.
Now I feel more comfortable to show my work and market myself. And the portrait event I offered, I don't know if I would have been able to do that If I wasn't listening to you, and the things we learned here.”

“I'm still riding high on the transformation I witnessed in my fellow students and my unexpected home run in the very last week. Thanks to the Thinking Grand coaching program for creatives I earned back more than my original investment doing what I love to do! Along with the lessons, tools and coaching led by Shannon, I had front row seats to witness the growth of the other students which was so inspiring and encouraging! Thank you Shannon and fellow creatives for the fun journey and transformative experience.”
