About Us

Who Am I? 

My name is Shannon Stueber-Mallrich.

First and foremost, I am defined by my relationships, connections that I desire to nurture and grow: I am a mom, a wife, a daughter, a friend, and a teacher.  After over two decades in teaching, I felt a calling to shift into another passion of mine: designing and directing retreats.  For years, a small group of dear friends and I have been taking time out - first in the spring for a weekend of guided Quiet Retreat and then, starting in the fall of 2019, an annual retreat that I design and guide.  After our first Quiet Retreat, we all were so thrilled with the rejuvenating experience of retreat that we wanted to make it a monthly outing…but, alas, our busy lives prevailed.  We saw such value in the retreat experience though, that we committed to retreat twice a year, and we are all better for it.

After experiencing the life-altering experience of retreats, I am eager to share the opportunity with others through Seeking Sabbath Retreats.  My goal is to create a sacred space that allows for rest and restoration.  Call or email me today to start on your journey of renewal.

My training includes over two decades of classroom teaching and theater directing: I often say that retreats are the best parts of my career in education because I get to use my creativity to build retreats just like I get to use my creativity to build engaging lessons for my students, and I am have the opportunity to facilitate learning and growth through thought-provoking questions and dynamic discussions as I do in our classroom.  The only difference with retreats is that every retreatant wants to be there, and the same cannot always be said for all of the thousands of students who have been through English II!

I am also a trained Stephen Minister, and have recently completed the following coursework:

• Enneagram Essence Embodiment Certification with Tammy Hendrix, LCSW

• Spiritual Coach Certification with Joeel and Natalie Rivera and Emily Andrews

• Introduction to Contemplative Prayer and Meditation with Thomas Bushlack, PhD.

• Teresa's Labyrinth with Marissa Myers

• Developing Your Intuition with Michael Hetherington

• Life Coach Certification with Joeel and Natalie Rivera

In addition, I am certified in the art of spiritual direction through the University of Wisconsin - Green Bay.
