I’ve never felt so free in my life..” - Shannon Svingen-Jones
A few months ago we released an episode of the Succeed Against the Odds Show with special guest Shannon Svingen-Jones. As you probably remember, Shannon is the founder and publisher of FabUplus magazine, the only North American magazine geared towards plus sized women. If by any chance you have not seen that episode yet, you can watch it here.
So much was discussed during that interview including Shannon’s journey, the reason for starting this magazine and her goals for what it can achieve. In fact, due to just how much was discussed, we were not able to fit all of the content in one video. Due to this, we have decided to release a part two of the interview with Shannon as part of the After Show series we sometimes release. If you are interested in more After Show episodes, you can find the episode with Sue Ferreira and Jenny Mourad here.
If you enjoyed the first episode or even if you have not seen it, I recommend checking out this week’s After Show episode. Shannon is a powerhouse of a woman and we delve into some pretty interesting topics. As women, the majority of us are taught to hate something about our bodies. Shannon and her FabUplus team are attempting to eliminate this way of thinking, one magazine at a time.
