My Story

2000

Born on July 14, 2000 in Charleston, SC to my fantastic parents Thomas Kenneally and Cheryl Shemanski.

2002

Just a kid doing kid things.

2003

Probably my very first picture day... dreaming of one day joining my buddy as a firefighter.

2005

I always felt connected to nature from a young age. That's the face of a young boy enjoying the pure beauty of the farm life around him.

2005

Me and my cousin Sam, best of buds and always getting into trouble. As you might be able to tell from my red Kool-Aid stained lips, also the start of my addiction to sugar.

2006

Not to be superficial, but wow, look at those abs!

2008

Beginning my crusade as a classical pianist - sound and vibration has been my anchor.

2010

Yearbook photo...

2010

My first attempt at "Business" creating homemade turtle traps and selling them online. It was also the first website I ever created!

2010

Put on some weight and started becoming so self-conscious I would only go out wearing a swimshirt.

2012

As social anxiety set in, I tried to stand out and "act cool" with crazy lax shorts.

2014

Allergies started becoming the norm... 4x a year. I was in a world of discomfort and could barely keep my eyes open.

2015

Sick of being sick, tired, and not confident in myself. Trying to do pull-ups for the first time ever to get in shape thinking it will solve all my problems.

May 19, 2016

The book that changed everything and the start of my mother and I's healing journey.

2017

A year later, living a totally different reality. Vibrant, confident, energized, light, and ready to take on the world.

2018

College bound - moving into Ohio State Universities dorms to live on my own for the first time ever.

Sep 26, 2019

A big day! Hosting my very own Farmer's Market and then giving a TEDx talk in the evening!

2021

A certified Holistic health coach, diving deeper into spirituality and my purpose; growing, giving, building, expanding consciousness to create the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible.
