Off To Boot Camp We Go
Having signed up to join the U.S Marine Corps, Shannon soon found herself traveling to South Carolina to take part in boot camp. Over the next 90 days, she trained in a variety of fields, including rifle training, mixed martial arts, and more. She would later call this the toughest experience of her life, pushing her both physically and mentally like she could have never imagined. This was not a deterrent, however, and she wanted to prove to everyone, including herself, that she was able to take on such a hard task and get through it anyway.

Not All Bad
While certainly a challenge, Shannon ended up finding enjoyment from the experience of being in boot camp. After she completed the process, she realised that she actually had a lot of support from the people around her, who were especially proud of her. She went back to the recruiter after completing the camp to let him know that she loved the experience. He knew she would be fine, especially as she had what he called an “alpha personality”. As it turns out, he was using a technique to encourage her to take on the challenge, which clearly worked.
