Hi, I'm Shelly Hansen
Six years ago, I was a successful lawyer, a busy mom of four, and living what most people would call a “good life.” Then I got cancer.
Nothing wakes you up like almost losing everything. I realized how much of my life I’d been putting on hold, how many dreams I’d been saving for “someday,” and how much I was settling for a life that didn’t feel fully lived. When I survived, I made a promise to myself: I would never live another day on autopilot.
Today, I’m still a practising lawyer, but I’m also the host of The Shelly Hansen Show, a published author, and a creator committed to making personal development practical. I blend real, lived experience with science-backed tools and mindset theories that help people create real change—not just think about it. I’m not here to sell quick fixes or motivation that fades. I’m here to help you rewrite the thoughts, habits, and beliefs that are keeping you stuck, so you can finally build the life you’ve been waiting for.
If you’re done waiting to feel ready—and you know there’s more for you—you’re in the right place. One decision. One day. One mindset shift at a time.

How to Actually Achieve the Life You Want
by Shelly Hansen
Goal Mastery is a simple, science-backed training course designed to help you follow through, even if motivation fades.
 You’ll learn how to set goals that actually stick, build consistency without burning out, and stop starting over every few weeks.
This isn’t about willpower or hype, it’s about understanding how your brain works and using that to your advantage.
A Few Truths I Live By
Â
 You’re not stuck—you’re patterned. Patterns can be rewired.Â
Â
 Repetition builds identity. Identity builds outcomes.Â
Â
 Your future depends on the habits you practice when no one is watching.Â
Â
 Don’t wait for the feeling. Create the evidence.Â
Â
If this resonates, you’re in the right place.
Who This Is ForÂ
→ This work is for people who are doing their best, but know there’s more.
Â
→ For those who don’t need hype or pressure, just tools that work.
Â
→ And for anyone ready to step off autopilot and build a life that actually feels like theirs.
