Shannon Nering
Shannon Nering is a writer, speaker, and former television reporter who spent more than two decades producing and directing documentary and reality TV. In midlife, she and her family made a bold leap—buying a small farm on Kauai and shipping everything they owned across the ocean in a 40-foot container to begin a new life. That move sparked a profound personal transformation, including an unexpected encounter with ayahuasca. Her memoir, The Mother Vine: How I Healed My Heart with Ayahuasca, explores motherhood, marriage, burnout, identity, and the search for deeper meaning. Today, as a holistic nutritionist immersed in body-mind-spirit healing and energetics, Shannon guides women on their own paths of transformation.
