This Is Me
Joybringer, Spaceholder and Fierce heart.
Here to remind you who you are.
This is what I do:
- I create spaces where people feel safe to be real.
- Where joy isn’t performative—it’s reclaimed.
- Where stories matter.
- And where healing happens through truth, shared.
What if joy isn’t something you feel—but something you choose, even in the messiest moments of life?
I believe in the power of connection, the healing that comes from truth, and the quiet kind of courage it takes to keep your heart open—even when it’s been broken.
I’m Shannon Donohoe-Simpson. Over the years, I’ve been an educator, a community creator, a storyteller. But the title that feels closest to my soul is this: Joybringer.
Not because I’m always joyful.
But because I choose joy—especially in the uncertain, in-between places where life feels most tender.
I’ve walked through illness, heartbreak, and reinvention.
I’ve weathered separation, grief, the stretching complexity of parenting children who needed more love than I sometimes knew how to give.
I’ve returned to myself again and again.
And still—I rise.
For years, I’ve been gathering people. Around tables, on dance floors, inside retreat spaces and circles where truth lives and laughter coexists with tears. Whether it’s a Toolbox Tuesday episode, a community celebration, or a late-night kitchen conversation—I live to spark connection, raise the energy in the room, and remind people of the light they’ve forgotten they carry.
Let’s shine together
A dear friend once wrote me these words, and I carry them in my heart:
“Darling Shannon, in your grace you hold the strength of a thousand warriors. And in your fierceness you emanate a light that guides others through the darkest of nights… You are a marvel, my friend—a symphony of grace and fierceness. And in every note of your existence, the world finds inspiration and solace.”
So no, I may not always feel like a Joybringer.
But I am one.
Because joy isn’t the absence of hardship—it’s the decision to keep shining through it.
And that’s what I’m here to help others do, too.
Whether I’m guiding a circle, speaking on stage, or creating content for the soul—I’m here to light the way back to joy. To truth. To self.
You don’t need to be “healed” to feel whole.
You don’t need to have it all figured out to take the next step.
You just need someone to remind you of who you already are.
That’s why I’m here.
