SHAWNA CHRISMAN is the successful CEO of Destination Aesthetics Medical Spa. In just over 10 years, what started as a solo project has now turned into opening up DA's fifth location in El Dorado Hills in March. Today we get a peek into what is behind Shawna's success. And then it all comes together when Shawna shares her adoption story and what she discovered over 40-plus years later. You will be inspired by today's episode.

In today's episode of Experience the Buzz, Host Steve Buzzard discovers the amazing story of Chrisman. "I have observed and watched Shawna's success in a very popular space. She has the 'it' factor which makes DA the blueprint for Medical Spas. And yet she will tell you that there isn't a competition with others. Brilliant!"  Our conversation hits three areas: 

• SEGMENT 1 ❤️ begins with a snapshot of Destination Aesthetics and what is behind the incredible growth the company has seen in the past 10 years. Shawna shares with us how it all started. We then transition into understanding rejuvenation and getting away from the stigmas when we hear words like 'botox' and 'needles.' Chrisman shares the DA Menu and explains why there is such a high retention rate.
• SEGMENT 2 ❤️ gets into what the pivot looked like for DA when Covid hit two years ago. As the DA family grows bigger, Chrisman describes the importance of her DA family and what goes into hiring people to come on board. Speaking of family, Chrisman shares the love story between her and husband Josh, who is part of the DA team after working for his family business. We finish the segment with talk about Sacramento and the amazing and iconic DA Billboards that are up around town.
• SEGMENT 3 ❤️ is powerful. Shawna gives us the deep dive into her adoption story. There was an 'out of left field' moment that was shared that you won't want to miss. 

Our Connection |  I have had the pleasure of knowing the Chrisman family over the years. Her son and daughter (now teenagers) participated in my Buzzardball basketball program. I also had the pleasure of having her daughter Elyse attend St. Michael's while I was a teacher there.

FUN FACTS
🎯Before DA, Shawna was the owner of Chrisman Community Center.
🎯In addition, she was a nurse practitioner at both Sutter and Kaiser Hospital.
🎯Shawna has no shame in saying that husband Josh is the poster boy for many DA campaigns.
