Your glow is that feeling when you remember who you are.

It’s the spark that shows up when you move your body, clear your mind, and take a moment just for yourself.

For some people, their glow is crossing a finish line.
For others, it’s taking the first step after a hard season in life.
Sometimes it’s simply showing up, breathing in the ocean air, and realizing you’re stronger than you thought.

Movement has a powerful way of bringing that glow back.

Running, walking, and being part of a community reminds us that we’re capable of more than we think — physically, mentally, and emotionally.

At the Define Your Glow Run, there’s no pressure to be fast or perfect.

You can run.
You can walk.
You can bring your dog, push a stroller, or participate virtually from anywhere in the world.

What matters is that you show up.

Because when people come together to move, support one another, and give back — something powerful happens.

That’s where the glow begins.

Shanell’s life is a powerful example of what can happen when someone chooses to listen to their inner voice and use their gifts to help others.

From a young age, Shanell experienced a deep sense of intuition and awareness of the energies around her. As life moved forward and she became a mother of two, she chose a more traditional path, building a career in banking while raising her family as a single mom.

In the professional world, she quickly discovered that her strong intuition and ability to read people helped her connect with clients and understand their needs on a deeper level. Those natural instincts allowed her to thrive in her career and create stability for her family.

But over time, Shanell realized something important — she had spent years taking care of everyone else without asking herself what truly brought her joy and purpose.

That realization led her to begin a new chapter.

In 2016, Shanell founded Define Your Glow, a platform dedicated to helping people reconnect with their inner strength, heal from past experiences, and rediscover their sense of purpose.

Through coaching, wellness practices, and spiritual guidance, Shanell works with people who are ready to grow, heal, and move forward in their lives.

Her mission is simple: to help others remember their strength, reconnect with their light, and define their glow.

Shanell is a Certified Run Coach who has successfully trained hundreds of athletes to reach their running goals, including completing major races such as the Boston Marathon. She is a 4 time IRONMAN finisher, and lifelong athlete who believes in the power of movement to transform both body and mind.

An avid dog lover, trail runner, and hiking enthusiast, Shanell spends as much time as possible outdoors. She believes deeply in the healing power of movement and encourages others to use running, walking, and time in nature as tools for strength, resilience, and personal growth.

Shanell recently lost her home after a devastating flood caused extensive damage, leaving the property unlivable and destroying many of her belongings.

Through her work with Define Your Glow, Shanell has spent years helping people around the world heal, grow, and rediscover their strength. Now our community is coming together to support her as she rebuilds.

Funds raised will help cover temporary housing, daily necessities, replacing essential belongings, and other recovery expenses while insurance and rebuilding are still being worked through.

Our goal is to raise $25,000 to help Shanell get back on her feet and continue the work she does for others.

If you’re unable to donate, you can still support Shanell by sharing this fundraiser or purchasing her book “Collision of Me.”

Every share. Every mile. Every act of support makes a difference.
