Shannon Simpson’s passion and personal commitment is apparent in everything she does. Shannon is an excellent listener and a clear communicator with idealistic principles, yet realistic goals. She is a valuable community mentor and helps others to find wholesome solutions and discover their own potential. In the years that I have known Shannon, she has woven her passion for healthy foods and nurturing relationships into acting as a creative and constructive role model for her own two children, her husband, friends in the community and then the world. She is an inspirational powerhouse whose energy and exuberance looms much larger than her unassuming stature, and she brings both experiential knowledge from a life of personal discovery and a lighthearted and ambitious sparkle to every interaction. It is an honor to count her as a friend and to continue to be inspired by her inherent vibrance and perpetual desire for integral community wellness.

Shannon Simpson has been in my life for over three years now and it’s been an absolute blessing. Perhaps what inspires me most about Shannon is her tenacity and her joyful, playful optimism. She always helps me to feel worthy, she amplifies with her appreciation all the parts of myself and my life that I love, it’s so helpful to be seen in the way that she sees me. She reminds me just how worthy of love I am, not by simply saying the words but by demonstrating just how much she actually believes it. She believes in me, she believes in people. Her empathy is palpable, it’s clear that she actually cares about my feelings and my sense of well-being. She’s a natural care-taker, a natural helper. She hears my issues and makes them her own, she meets me there and together, we can find a way through. She embodies the qualities of someone who believes in community and family. I know I can depend on Shannon, I know she’s in my corner, and that alone is enough for me.

It has been said that if throughout a child’s education they come to the end of it still not knowing who they are and what they have to offer the world, then the education has failed them. Shannon has recognized this and has put her heart and soul into addressing this missing piece in our current conventional education system. Through her own personal experience and passion, Shannon and her team help to connect youth to themselves and all that they are. This is such a gift and blessing to our community.

I have journeyed alongside Shannon for over twenty years and witnessed close-up and personally her determination and perseverance to overcome some huge life challenges. Many people would have been buried by the weight of just some of the issues she has faced. Her personal experience, knowledge, compassion and ability to share skills and techniques that support healing are valuable and I would recommend trusting her to help in achieving your personal health and wellbeing goals.

The growth and support that I have felt from Shannon is amazing. She has given me “real life” tools on how to cope with parenting and interpersonal relationship struggles, always understanding and recognizing me. I have learned ways to improve myself and situations. Shannon has been so passionate and kind, her rousing spirit has made an incredible impact on my life. I genuinely recommend connecting with her. I am so grateful to know you Shannon.

Shannon is the kind of visionary that makes it look easy. Envisioning a world where acceptance, compassion, and encouragement is common is possible when you step into Shannon’s realm. Hearing her speak about Masterpiece Magic is a chance to hear passion and commitment – straight from the heart. Love shines a golden aura around Shannon in spite of the fact that she is working very hard and doing the heaving lifting that is required to instigate change. Keep going Shannon!
Pauline Stevenson
President, Excel Career College
I met Shannon what feels like ages ago, her children were small and I was their nanny. I watched as she tirelessly put all her efforts into ensuring they got the best of it all. Whether it was nutrition, education or enriching their environments, Shannon was thoughtful and purposeful in everything she did. Outside of her family and home life she had an amazing balance of setting boundaries and lifting others up. Both having the kindest heart but also knowing her limits and what she needed, and being remarkably self-aware. Shannon has always reached for the stars regardless of what obstacles may be in her way, she will tackle them with grace. Shannon has been an inspiration to me and many around her with her drive to make a difference and create positive change. I know she will continue to walk her journey in a good way and will continue to be a blessing to anyone who gets the privilege to walk alongside her.

Shannon came to an event of ours and offered a passionate and stimulating presentation. She made sure to bring products with her so people could see what she was talking about. It is clear how much she loves what she does and that transpired in how she presented her information. We loved having her at our event and would definitely consider asking her again!
Karine Chalifour
Program Director, Young Adult Cancer Canada
Shannon volunteered with a program called Girls in Action on Saturdays for two years (2014 – 2016) with up to 50 girls from the Surrey School Board. Shannon is such an enthusiastic and passionate proponent of healthy eating. Her knowledge was fascinating to hear explained in very accessible ways, for kids and adults alike. Her enthusiasm excited students and staff alike and she had lots of practical suggestions. She is easy to work with and became a great part of our program team.
Ruth Des Cotes
Program Manager, A Rocha Canada
Shannon Simpson is an amazing woman and passionate educator. She shared her courageous fight against cancer and taught my students how she helped to heal herself with food. Her program provides children practical skills to critically examine their food choices as well as how to investigate the chemicals in products they use.

I had the privilege of meeting Shannon leading a field trip to A Rocha in Surrey. I work as an outreach worker for the Surrey School District and lead a program called Girls in Action on Saturdays. Girls in Action is an eight-week program that is run through the Community Schools Department within the Surrey School District. It gives young girls the opportunity to gain leadership skills, build confidence and make new friends. Throughout the eight-week program, the girls visit A Rocha three times. Each visit Shannon teaches about nutrition at one of the stations. Shannon’s love and passion for her work is contagious. Every Saturday we visited she would show up with a huge smile and be eager to share her knowledge with the girls about healthy eating. It was amazing to see the girls be challenged to rethink what they put in their bodies. The sessions were hands on and interactive making the knowledge Shannon shared much easier to process. Shannon is down to earth, relatable and passionate about helping others live a full and healthy life. Thank you for being such an inspiration to myself and the girls in the program.

Outreach Worker, Surrey School District
Shannon is incredible to work with. Her knowledge, compassion, and passion to help people is phenomenal. I was diagnosed with polymyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, and only had 50% mobility in my shoulder and 20% in both hips. Ligaments and tendons bulging out of my body. Working with Shannon has been such a huge blessing for me. She taught me so much without overwhelming me at the same time. Her recipes working around my allergies and using anti-inflammatory foods my whole family enjoys has been a game-changer.
Shannon suggested taking vitamins/supplements as well. She stayed within my budget and has helped my overall physical and mental well-being. My diabetes is so much more controlled now as well. Even my doctor asked what had changed. She was so thankful I connected with Shannon and the positive outcome I was seeing already. I now have 90% of my shoulder mobility back and 45% in my hips.
If you had even the slightest interest, jump in with both feet. You will not regret working with Shannon and the knowledge you come away with. She has been a savior to me in a time of need. Supported me through my tears, frustration, etc. I can’t wait to follow up and tweak my plan in the future with her.

Shannon is an enthusiastic presenter with a wealth of knowledge on nutrition, foods and the environment, and much much more. I highly recommend her workshops. They are engaging for all ages and bring another perspective on food and nutrition into the lives of our children.
