Hello

Ja’Shanna is a Certified Life Coach, Author, and Transformational Speaker whose journey is rooted in resilience, faith, and personal growth. Raised in the small town of Warrenton, Georgia, she learned early the power of perseverance, discipline, and faith while balancing college as a full-time student and working multiple jobs to support her family.

​

Despite enduring childhood trauma that followed her into adulthood, Ja’Shanna refused to allow her past to define her future. In August 2015, she took a bold leap of faith and relocated to Atlanta, Georgia to pursue her God-given calling. Even through personal struggles, major life transitions, and seasons of homelessness, she committed herself to healing, renewing her mind, and rebuilding her life with purpose and intention.

​

Through this transformative journey, Shanna Shine was born—along with The Shine Collection, a powerful line of workbooks and journals created to support mental health awareness, personal development, and spiritual growth. Her collection includes Walking into Uncertainty, It Starts with Me, You Have Permission, and two personalized Decree and Declare journals, designed to help individuals align their thoughts, words, and actions.

​

Today, Shanna stands as a transformed and empowered woman of faith, fully devoted to helping others believe in themselves, pursue their purpose, and grow beyond their limitations. As a Certified Life Coach and Transformational Speaker, she is passionate about mental health awareness, personal development, suicide prevention, and creating healthy, honest conversations that lead to emotional and spiritual healing.

​

Shanna began her speaking journey by sharing her story within her community and across social media platforms, which later led to the creation of the “Girl, You Guess’d It,” Media (GYGI) co-produced with Jahnique. Her voice and impact have continued to expand through collaborations with social media influencers, interview appearances, and features in BoldJourney Magazine, Canvasrebel Magazine, and VoyageAtl Magazine. 

​

In addition to her speaking and coaching work, Ja’Shanna coaches individuals in becoming writers and assists first-time authors with self-publishing, helping them bring their stories, journals, and books to life with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

​

She is also the founder of clothing apparel “Shine in Your Identity,” a brand built on the belief that transformation begins from the inside out—by what you see, speak, think, and hear. Shanna invites you to join the Shine family, take intentional action, and begin creating a life aligned with faith, purpose, and truth.
