In episode 25, Denise Shannon, a former nurse turned pastor and founder of Sassy Preacher Lady Ministries, shares her journey from a secure career in nursing to answering a spiritual call, embracing roles that straddle care and spiritual guidance. Denise discusses the “seven-year career itch,” where she experienced shifts in her career trajectory every few years, seeking new challenges and deeper meaning.
She reflects on her upbringing, pivotal life decisions, and the non-traditional path that led her to the ministry, emphasizing the importance of listening to one’s inner voice and pursuing a path fueled by passion and service, rather than conventional success. The discussion highlights her approach to pastoral care, which integrates personal storytelling with spiritual support, breaking the traditional mold of religious service.
Listeners are invited to reflect on their own paths and consider how unconventional choices can lead to fulfilling and impactful lives. Denise’s story is a compelling testimony to living authentically and embracing one’s true calling, regardless of the timing or the unconventional nature of the journey.
