Who We Are
The Art of Moxie was created by Shawn Ramsey and stems from a passion for empowering clients to create the business and life they desire — by facilitating authentic, intentional and strategic discovery, communication and connection.
Throughout her career, Shawn has helped hundreds of entrepreneurs build their businesses and pursue their dreams. Prior to following her own entrepreneurial path (starting with founding Crossroads PR & Marketing in 2003), Shawn led communication efforts at a number of successful entrepreneurial companies including TogetherSoft ($210 m acquisition) and OpenSite ($542 m acquisition).
Shawn offers services in three main categories: Strategic Communication Consulting, Coaching for Entrepreneurs and Forest Therapy. The common thread that flows through all of these services is Shawn’s desire to help clients shift the way they communicate, connect and grow. She knows that doing the work necessary to embrace clarity, authenticity and intention is essential to making that shift and creating a meaningful and purpose-driven business and life. She excels at helping clients do just that.

Forest Therapy (and More)
Shawn Ramsey is a certified Forest Therapy Guide. Inspired by the Japanese art of shinrin-yoku, Forest Therapy focuses on the therapeutic and holistic benefits of being among the trees and in connection with Nature. As a certified Forest Therapy Guide, Shawn’s role is to facilitate experiences that open the senses through a series of nature-connected invitations, and to awaken the remembrance of our interconnection with all of life.

Shawn believes that nature is the perfect catalyst for growth and exploration. With that in mind, she offers other nature-based workshops to help facilitate discovery and connection (with Nature and ourselves). These experiences are available on an individual or group-basis, and are a great addition to any company's employee wellness program. Learn more about these workshops.
