The Most Audacious Woman in the Room featuring Shanna Adamic
She’s a real-life Belle from Beauty and the Beast—smart, witty, kind, and undeniably driven. A true IT girl, she exudes positivity, or rather, optimism. In every room, she’s the most audacious woman, leading with a career journey that’s nothing short of impressive.
As an athlete, she led the Kansas City cheerleaders both on the sidelines and in the community for over eight years. Today, she’s the Director of Oracle Health Foundation and Executive Director of Oracle Social Impact, traveling the world as an inspirational keynote speaker, most recently in Australia. She represents global social impact, the corporate philanthropic vision, and the foundation’s mission with grace and authority. You may have seen her commanding the stage at the annual Raise Conference as both keynote speaker and emcee.
Yet, amid these professional triumphs, she finds balance in her most cherished roles: family woman, devoted wife, and mother to two beautiful children, who are already joining her in volunteer efforts.
But like any true fairy tale, her story is not without its trials.
It took 109 doctor visits for Shanna Adamic to face the unthinkable: a life-threatening diagnosis that would thrust her into the OR, followed by serious treatment and a lengthy recovery. Yet, Shanna chose to partner with her healthcare providers, embracing incredible optimism in the face of unimaginable challenges.
In this episode of Raise Nation Radio, Shanna shares her powerful journey and announces her new book, Audacious Optimism, which chronicles the inspiration that helped her and will help others in their most trying times. Shana embodies what it means to be audaciously optimistic.
Tune in to be inspired and learn how to pre-order Audacious—a book that has the potential to change your mindset and outlook on life, no matter what challenges you may be facing.
