The Authentic Life Credo
Awareness → Alignment → Transformation.
Awareness is the beginning. Alignment is the practice. Transformation is what follows.
Jeffrey & Shanda Lee
Jeffrey and Shanda Lee have been married for over 30 years and are the proud parents of two grown daughters. With a shared background in youth pastoring, mentoring, teaching, coaching, entrepreneurship, and business, their lives have been shaped by helping others grow, navigate change, and move forward with greater purpose.
Together, they founded The Authentication Process (TAP) from a shared belief that meaningful transformation begins with becoming more aware of what has shaped you—and learning to live in greater alignment with who you truly are.
The TAP Experience
A journey from awareness to authentic living.
The TAP Experience is a transformational process designed to help you understand what has shaped you, recognize what may be keeping you stuck, and reconnect with who you authentically are.
Through awareness, healing, alignment, and integration, we help you move beyond simply understanding the work to living it.
TAP isn't about telling you who to become. It's about helping you authenticate who you already are and create a life that reflects it.
Awareness → Awakening → Healing → Alignment → Integration → Embodiment
This is The TAP Experience.

My Authentic Me
Shanda Lee is an author, blogger, Awakening & Transformation Coach, and co-creator of The Authentication Process (TAP). Her work centers on helping people reconnect with who they are beneath expectations, old identities, and the stories they have learned to carry.
Shanda holds a Bachelor of Science in Organizational Leadership & Supervision from Purdue University and an Associate degree in Communication. Her professional background includes more than 15 years working with youth with special needs, 10 years of experience in behavioral analysis, mentoring at-risk youth, advocacy, entrepreneurship, and years of coaching and supporting individuals and families.
She is the author of My Authentic Me: Finding Purpose to Pain and The Journey of Me: Awakening My Truth. Across both books, Shanda explores the deeply personal terrain of identity, purpose, pain, truth, healing, and what it means to find your way back to yourself.
Through her personal platform, My Authentic Me, Shanda continues that conversation through writing and reflection centered on identity, awakening, healing, faith, self-trust, and the journey of becoming more fully aligned with what is true. Her work is rooted in the belief that transformation isn’t always about becoming someone new—sometimes it’s about remembering who you were before the world told you who to be.
Her work through My Authentic Me brings another dimension to what she and Jeff have created through TAP: helping people move from awareness into alignment, purpose, and authentic living.
