Unwritten with Steph
Life doesn’t always go as planned — but it’s never too late to begin again.
Unwritten with Steph is a podcast about reinvention, resilience, and the beauty of starting over. Each week, host Stephanie Shanks sits down for honest, heart-centered conversations with people who have faced life’s unexpected turns — and found their way back to themselves.
Through stories of transformation, courage, and self-discovery, Unwritten reminds us that our past doesn’t define us — it refines us. Whether you’re navigating midlife changes, rediscovering your purpose, or healing from the past, these raw and inspiring conversations will help you reconnect with your truth and remember: it’s never too late to rewrite your story.

The Journey of Angels of Dirt: Storytelling, Spirit & the Power of Film
In this episode of Unwritten with Steph, I sit down with filmmaker Wendy Schneider to explore the nearly two-decade journey of creating the documentary Angels of Dirt. The film tells the story of Charlotte Cain and the powerful world of female motorcycle racing — a story of courage, creativity, and connection.
Wendy shares how Angels of Dirt became a spiritual and emotional experience, shaped by personal growth, community, and the music that fuels her creative process. We talk about the heart behind storytelling, the challenges of independent filmmaking, and what it means to measure success by the lives you touch, not the numbers.
This conversation is for anyone who’s ever felt called to tell their story, to keep creating, or to stay true to their vision no matter how long the road gets.
✨ Listen now to feel inspired, grounded, and creatively recharged.
