    Releasing Monthly: Shannon’s Sharp

    Hi, welcome to Shannon’s Sharp! I’m your host Shannon Ecker, and this is where I talk about what I want to because it’s my show not yours! If you get that reference, how’s therapy going? In my life I’ve spent a lot of time masked and having to pretend. I don’t need help looking at the bright side, that’s my default. Trust that I will always find a joke! If you get my references, even better. Im currently trying to let the darker sides of my story breathe and seek their own light. To be seen while estranged and being myself out loud for the first time. I must be unafraid to meet myself and the world where it’s biting and bitter and intense. Where it’s sharpest. This is for people who don’t want to sugarcoat things but still appreciate nuance and relentless hope. I’m not here to complain, but examine things as they are. And they often suck! I’ve had a lot of bad shit happen to me that has forever changed me. I am in constant pain and this is a place to hold space for chronic illness and the hurts that never go away. It’s a place for grief you don’t have names for but that stab all the same. It’s for holding all the pieces of yourself, even the sharp ones. It’s for late diagnosed autistics and burnout high achievers, For fat folks and fan girls and chronically ill queers. For eldest daughters and old souls and estranged adults and all the people who through me may see themselves. It’s for witches and southern leftists deconstructing Bible Belt upbringings. for those who’ve left the church but also lost family and community. For those who’ve been gaslit. For people who left their home state desperate to find something better, those who left their hometown to find themselves. Its for people with migraines and chronic pain who’s bodies carries scores they should have never had to endure. for those who have had to choose themselves, even when it hurts. it’s for nonbinary femmes and recovering people pleasers and poets and dreamers and shippers who yearn and for chronically online gays, Ok, I contain multitudes and this is gonna be a good f*****g time! I don’t know what you’ve been through, but I hope hearing my thoughts, memories, jokes, analysis or even singing (yes you will get to hear me sing a lot!) brings you comfort or makes you laugh. I think the beauty of life is seeing where the intense and fierce parts of us thrive, and this is where I’m starting. I’m ready to be seen. Or heard, technically - you get it. I’ve got a lot of topics I can cover, from my lived experience, hobbies, and burgeoning writing career, to diving into gender politics and psychology. I guess it’s Time to dust off that psych degree! We’re getting sharp.
