Be Seen, Be Heard, Be Proud! From Invisible to Unstoppable: Dr. Shannon’s Story Begins
Welcome to the premiere episode of Be Seen. Be Heard. Be Proud., the podcast for anyone who’s ever longed for connection, community, and the courage to step into their light.
In this heartfelt and humorous debut, Dr. Shannon Whittington shares her personal journey from the quiet countryside to the towering high-rises of New York City—and the culture shock that came with it. Feeling disconnected and invisible, Shannon decided to change her world with a simple, intentional act of kindness: a candle and a note.
What unfolded next was a transformation—not just of her apartment building’s lobby, but of the way neighbors connected, supported each other, and built community from the inside out.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why Dr. Shannon believes community is essential to mental and emotional health
- How one small gesture led to deep connections and unexpected leadership
- A powerful reminder that you don’t need permission to create change
- The mission behind this podcast: to build a place where every voice matters
This is more than a podcast—it’s a movement. And it starts with you.
