“The Braid Framework™ doesn’t ask you to prove yourself or perform. It invites you to practice presence by living in rhythm with what’s real in your work, your relationships, & yourSelf.”
—Shannon Wooten
Hello, Lover!
These guides weren’t planned. They were lived. I wrote them in the thick of noticing who I am. Not to become something else. But to stay with myself while everything old stopped making sense. The more I wrote, the more I stopped dissolving. And, I saw a thread. A throughline. A rhythm. Not linear or sequential. Just… honest.
What emerged from self-awareness wasn’t a method, but a mirror. A non-framework, framework for congruence, anchored in presence, values, emotional regulation, perspective, & romance. These guides are my body of work. They’re a devotion. To the misunderstood. Sensitive. To the ones who feel “too much” or “not enough.” To anyone who ever wondered if they were the problem.
I didn’t write them to sell. I wrote them to help process all I was experiencing. Because I believed I was good even when the World said otherwise. Because I was afraid of myself, & needed to see if that fear was telling the truth. Because if there were a way to live with myself honestly, maybe I wouldn’t want to leave my life anymore.
I didn’t plan to share them. But they wouldn’t let me go. The Presence guide alone demanded pages of flowcharts & handwritten reflections. I tried to package it neatly, & it refused. She said: Tell the truth. Or don’t tell it at all. So I kept writing. Through grief, trauma, suicidal ideation, failure, disappointment, changing, regulating, & the realization that I was either going to keep resisting life…or finally learn to live it in a way that included Me. My truths.
I wrote the guides for the part of me that went on a rescue mission to save herself. And for the part of you that’s ready to stop abandoning who you really are to survive.
This is self-honoring. It’s not about fixing your feelings or mastering your mindset. It’s about being with the truth of your experience & choosing how to live from there. And now they’re here for you – the guides. For the ones who want to live with honesty, anchor to integrity, & stay with themselves. Even when it would be easier to disappear.
This is how I contribute to the world I believe in. One where we walk with our truth, not away from it. One where love and neutrality can finally sit at the same table.
What Each Guide Costs & Why? >>
Why The Guides Cost What They Cost?
Let’s talk about price, because I respect your energy: attention, connection, & money.
These guides are not fluff. They’re not PDFs full of platitudes or one-size-fits-all strategies. They are lived frameworks, filled with real tools, nuanced insights, & deep invitations into personal alignment, clarity, & right-relationship. Their creation took years of lived experience, practice, & refinement. And yet, I’ve priced them accessibly on purpose. Because the world is tender right now. The economy is uncertain. And navigating your inner world shouldn't require financial strain or spiritual bypassing. Not because they’re worth less, but because I believe self-honoring work should be financially reachable without performance, pressure, or shame. I believe clarity & congruence should be available, not aspirational.
The Braid Framework Guides:
🔹 Presence & Values: $99
(click guide name to review & purchase)
A path to living fully & with integrity: for those anchoring their awareness & laying foundational clarity.
These guides are not “entry-level.” They are essential. They bring you into contact with your own rhythm: your clarity, energy, & values. And they do it without prescription, without hierarchy, & without shame. $99 doesn’t reflect what they’re “worth”. It reflects a conscious choice to make foundational alignment available to those ready to live it.
🔹 Emotional Regulation Spectrum: $129
(click guide name to review & purchase)
A path from overwhelm to aligned action: for those learning how to hold intensity without collapsing, & stabilize without shutting down.
This guide doesn’t promise to “fix” your emotions. It helps you find their range, capacity & resonance. It helps you recognize the rhythm of how they move, what they mean, & how to meet them with presence. This isn’t about managing symptoms. It’s about honoring your system. $129 is not a discount. It’s a deliberate offering. A decision to make emotional steadiness reachable for those ready to practice it with care & capacity.
🔹 Perspective Shifting & Romancing Reality: $149
(click guide name to review & purchase)
A path to conscious congruence & reverent relationship with life: for those ready to see clearly, choose integrity, & meet life with Love.
Your life is a gift. So is noticing how you see to it. These guides walk with the wholeness of life's paradox & invite you to recognize how you see, relate, & choose in it. Perspective offers you the dignity and divinity of your own view. Romancing Reality invites the kind of presence that makes love possible, even when life doesn’t feel lovely.
$149 doesn’t measure the magnitude of this work. This is deeply alive work. A container for revelation, not prescription. It reflects a commitment to make deeper self-honesty & soulful relating possible for those ready to meet it.
This is for the parts of you that no longer want to struggle to betray yourself. The parts that want to hear you out before debate, denial, or disappointment take over. The parts that want the relief & ease of living what’s honest… even when it hurts. Because at least then, the hurt makes sense.
Because the truth is, You care. You care a lot. About your feelings. About others. About life. It’s why you’re here. Confused about who is the ultimate authority over you? Outraged about the constant overriding of choice. Battered, Beaten, & Belittled at everything that rejects you. Suspects you. Silences you. And aware that it, what challenges you, includes you.
Over-ready to quit attempting to be everything to everyone, you're finished with trying to know the most ‘right’ thing. You're eager to end the exhaustion. And, painfully aware that authenticity is the only way through this (season, this resistance, this self-contempt, etc.) for you.
-
Carefully considering a capacity you’re not sure you're capable of carrying.
-
Holy-harassed by an unrelenting desire to ride the wave that comes with embodying the experience of what’s true.
-
Endlessly seduced by the strength & ease you know comes with living aligned.
I meet you where you are. Not as a gimmick. Not to change you. Because I learned the significance of meeting myself.
Welcome to the work of living honestly.
Work that honors rhythm. Respects capacity. Anchors clarity. Whether you’re here for personal alignment or professional congruence, you’re invited to begin. You're invited to live bold. You're invited to Be.
This is The Braid Framework™. This is devotion in motion, baby. This is for the Lover in You.
