I Love My Community: Shannon Marie Stallings

Shannon Marie Stallings, a Realtor and transformational coach, sat down with HERLIFE Magazine recently to share her dedication to family and community.

HLM: How long have you lived here? What do you love most?
SS: I was born and raised in Lodi. I love Lodi for its family feel and the location two hours from the beach and two hours from the snow. I was recently reminded at a birthday party that there are so many kind and loving people in Lodi and so many new relationships to be made. We are here to serve, love and to create everlasting relationships with fond memories. Life is short and we should take each day and be blessed in all we do. I remind myself every day the blessings God has given me and continue to choose joy, love, kindness and forgiveness. If there is one thing that I will continue to bring to Lodi, it’s my passion to help others in all I do.

HLM: How is your heart inspired to serve the community?
SS: Where there is a need, I will always try to help. I give back to many local organizations and this year I adopted a family of six to provide them a Christmas.

HLM: What sparks joy for you?
SS: I have so much passion in my real estate business to help others become successful in real estate, working with first-time homebuyers or sellers looking to take advantage of their equity, or simply working with my investors. Being a Realtor brings me so much joy that I can be a part of one’s life to help them live a life by design and better their life through real estate investing. I also recently opened a wellness center where I can help guide and coach women who suffer from past experiences that leave them in a stuck state or feeling so lost and alone. I stepped away and did five years of training so I could bring empowerment, love and light into our community and help these women in need.

HLM: Top three bucket list goals?
SS: My wellness center to transform as many women as I can; more investment properties outside of California; travel the world and learn all the different cultures; serve on
a mission.

HLM: What accomplishment are you most proud of?
SS: Being a local Realtor is one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever accomplished. Then adding Wellness at the Ranch was a dream of mine that has recently come true, healing and empowering women from all over. Most important is having my husband and best friend by my side.

HLM: Can you describe a key event that had an impact on your life?
SS: Making Gary Keller’s Top 100 in Real Estate is a huge accomplishment and being in the top 1 percent. Completing all of my certification as a Transformational Coach has also been so rewarding.

HLM: How is your time best spent outside work?
SS: With family and friends. I am always looking for the best opportunity in investing in real estate and always learning in personal growth and development. I strive to better myself to be the best leader, wife, mother and friend I can be. I want to make a difference in every person I meet.

HLM: Do you have a favorite quote?
SS: Each day is a gift to be opened with prayer. For with God, nothing shall be impossible. Luke 1:37.

HLM: What are you currently reading?
SS: NIV Woman’s Study Bible; The Breakthrough Experience by Dr. John F. Demartini.

HLM: Favorite food or dessert?
SS: I love to eat very clean! I love lots of veggies, Thai food and love a great grassfed steak. Ice cream is my weakness!
