Author: Shanna Vavra April 14, 2025 Duration: 51:31
Today on Sense of Soul we have Jon Chandonnet, he was on the fast track to success, earning his master's from MIT and leading teams to develop software to launch startups, while also scaling mountain peaks and running marathons. But at 33, his life took an unexpected turn when he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. For years, Jon lived in denial, ignoring his condition as he pushed himself to even greater extremes.Eventually, his health deteriorated, forcing him to embark on an eight-year journey to understand life's essential elements for vibrant well-being despite his illness. His book Shadow Summit chronicles this inspiring odyssey through denial, suffering, and ultimately healing and wholeness.On this quest, Jon identified seven foundational elements for creating one's healthiest, most fulfilled life. Drawing on his software background, he realized humans, like computers, process daily inputs that shape their outputs.Jon distilled these insights into the 7 VIBRANTs™ well-being system, a holistic framework to mindfully curate the inputs we receive through food, thoughts, emotions and social interactions. This allows anyone to naturally cultivate the vibrant life they desire with greater focus, persistence, joy and ease. Jon is also the author of Shadow Summit, an incredible story of Jon's journey through denial and suffering, to a vibrant life of love, healing, and wholeness that he was determined to make possible. MS knocked Jon down, but it didn't knock him out. It motivated him to become more conscious and intentional about life. Putting into practice his learnings about diet, exercise and spirituality, Jon has reversed his symptoms. Available on here on Amazon. www.vibrantuacademy.com www.senseofsoulpodcast.com

Hosted by Shanna Vavra, Sense of Soul is a space for deep conversation about the often messy path toward personal and spiritual understanding. Rather than offering simple answers, this podcast sits with the complexities of healing and growth, drawing from a well of diverse perspectives. Shanna connects with guests from various cultural and spiritual backgrounds, each bringing a raw account of how profound challenges were met with resilience and reframed into a sense of purpose. What you’ll hear in these dialogues are not polished success stories, but genuine narratives about confronting pain, questioning beliefs, and discovering an inner light that often feels hidden. The discussions naturally weave through themes of faith, self-improvement, and education in the broadest sense-learning from life itself. Tuning into this podcast feels like joining a thoughtful gathering where the focus is on authentic human experience across different traditions and personal journeys. It’s for anyone curious about the intersection of spirituality and daily life, seeking a sense of connection and reflection through the shared wisdom of others walking a similar path.
