Shannon Harrell

Shannon Harrell has two decades of Fortune 100 and start-up leadership, along with six years of yoga teaching. As a certified E-RYT 500 instructor and Prosci ADKAR practitioner, her mission is to translate ancient yogic philosophies into practical tools that enhance executive performance, team cohesion, and organizational culture.

In her corporate career, Shannon has partnered with executive teams at Progressive, Nestlé, Teladoc, and Independence Pet Holdings (IPH) to drive transformative communications and change initiatives—consistently earning top culture-survey scores under her leadership.

At IPH she architected and led enterprise-wide internal and external communications for seven B2C and B2B brands—ghostwriting C-suite speeches, steering crisis-response during acquisitions, and producing award-winning campaigns that generated over 13 billion media impressions and earned recognition from PRWeek, Ragan, and the Shorty Awards.

At Nestlé, her ESG and purpose-driven messaging garnered 27 billion impressions through pandemic, culturally relevant, and social-justice moments. At Progressive, she championed communications ROI, aligned sales-and-marketing narratives, and built scalable change communications playbooks.

Over the course of her career, Shannon has designed and delivered hundreds of customized workshops and retreats—from high-stakes sales conferences and executive intensives to six-week leadership cohorts—helping teams and individuals tap into deeper clarity, resilience, and innovation. Today, she weaves yoga philosophy, movement, breathwork, and mindful inquiry into every program, creating a powerful blend of strategic insight and self-care that unlocks lasting impact.

When she’s not on the mat or in the boardroom, you’ll catch Shannon wandering the Cleveland Metroparks with her family, scouting the latest craft brewery, or exploring new places. Her down-to-earth energy and playful curiosity infuse each experience, ensuring participants leave recharged, balanced, authentic, and ready to lead with intention and lasting impact.
