In this episode of PWRD by Purpose, Brandi DeVries sits down with Shannon Bingham—entrepreneur, keynote speaker, author of Your Ultimate Impact, and award-winning community and adoption advocate—to explore how serving others can uncover your purpose and create a ripple effect that reaches far beyond you.
Shannon shares how her journey evolved from business ownership and pageantry to adoption advocacy, public speaking, and authorship. Along the way, she discovered that making a difference isn’t about having the biggest platform or standing on the biggest stage. Sometimes, the most meaningful impact begins with the small, often unseen acts of service that change someone’s life.
In this inspiring conversation, Shannon opens up about overcoming fear, trusting yourself when others question your path, being intentional with your voice and social media, and finding the courage to use your gifts for something bigger than yourself.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- How serving others can help you discover your purpose.
- Why you don’t need a big platform or title to make a meaningful impact.
- How one intentional decision can create a ripple effect of change.
- What keeps people from taking action—and how to move beyond fear and self-doubt.
- Why showing up authentically can inspire others more than a perfectly curated highlight reel.
- Three practical ways to begin making your own impact today.
Your purpose in action starts here: Identify what matters to you, find a way to serve, share your story authentically, and trust yourself enough to take the next step.
