In 2013 Shawn discovered the critical nature of work-life balance when working and flying throughout North America for a billion-dollar US conglomerate pretty much non-stop. On a flight into Tampa, he looked out the plane window to see a bay filled with boats moored close to shore. Serving as a reminder of the simple life, by the sea, that he one dreamed of, he resolved to make changes. In short, he gave up his corporate job, and created a ‘dash plan’ that began with starting his own company.

Shawn realized that success in his new company was dependent on discovering a more balanced approach to life. After spending so much time on his career, he was experiencing burnout. He failed to understand how important balance is to sustainable success.

Since then, he developed his signature program The 3 Pillars of a Balanced Life, and used it to re-discover his passions and re-invigorate his energy. He took action: he sold his house, bought a boat, and lived and worked on it while sailing south.

His over 30 years of experience in strategic business planning, progressive leadership roles in sales and marketing, and a wealth of knowledge of the home improvement industry in Canada and the USA, have served him well in his own company.

From quarterbacking new product start-ups and growing multimillion-dollar programs to building thriving business relationships with conglomerates like Home Depot, Lowes, Orgill, and Canadian Tire, Shawn knows how to help others find their path to success in the corporate world and their lives.
