Warning: the energy in this episode is super contagious. We take no responsibility for the boundless audacity and unapologetic joy you'll be experiencing from here on out.
We bring you the embodiment of limitless spirit - Shavon Woolfolk. Forget what you thought you knew about boxes --they don't exist here. As a self-styled "black unicorn", Shavon lives a multifaceted life as a marketing manager, life coach, fashion stylist, model, CEO, salsa dance instructor, comedy writer, boxer, surfer, and teacher -- all with a delicious side of "seasonal boyfriends." She laughs in the face of societal norms and dances with her fears, encouraging us all to embrace our individuality, learn, unlearn, and seize the frickin' day. From her beginnings as a shy girl from a conservative Christian household to her liberating journey of self and sexual discovery, her story is a rollercoaster ride of fun, courage, and unfiltered authenticity.
Shavon also brings it with an abundance of truth and wisdom, taking us through lessons on freedom, the power of expressing our intentions out loud, the transformative potential of play, and so much more. As the founder of the Match Education program, Shavon aims to unlock children's potential by fostering an environment that promotes freedom of expression -- but turns out she does this everywhere she goes. This one-of-a-kind conversation will have you questioning your own limits, crack open your mind to new possibilities -- and hopefully get you to dance wild, even when everyone's watching.
This conversation is uninhibited in EVERY respect. Please be aware that it includes open discussions about adult topics, including sexuality.
