About Project Enough
Project Enough began as a space for stories that were too often ignored, silenced, or pushed aside. What started with storytelling has grown into a platform for learning, connection, and community-based action.
Today, Project Enough creates experiences that bring people together through workshops, film screenings, conversations, and storytelling—connecting lived experiences to larger cultural and social issues.
What We Believe
We believe learning should be accessible, community-centered, and connected to the world we live in.
We believe in the power of storytelling to build understanding.
We believe that gathering—whether to create, watch, listen, or discuss—is a meaningful step toward connection and change.
Because sometimes, the most important thing isn’t just learning new information—
it’s learning to question what we thought we already knew.
What We Do
Project Enough offers a range of programming designed to inform, connect, and engage:
-
Storytelling experiences that center lived experiences and amplify underrepresented voices
-
Film screenings and discussions that explore culture, power, and lived realities
-
Workshops and creative gatherings that bring people together through hands-on experiences
-
Courses and learning opportunities that build critical thinking and deepen understanding
-
Community conversations that make complex ideas accessible and engaging
Our Approach
Our work is rooted in the idea that education doesn’t have to be formal to be impactful.
We create spaces that are welcoming, thoughtful, and grounded in real experiences—where people can engage, reflect, and leave feeling more connected and informed
Our Founder
Project Enough was founded by Shannon Bauerle, an educator, speaker, and community leader passionate about storytelling, critical thinking, and creating spaces where people can engage with ideas in meaningful ways.
With over 20 years of teaching experience in English, Women’s and Gender Studies, and American Studies, Shannon has spent her career helping students explore how history, culture, and power shape the world around them. She has designed and taught original courses on topics such as gender and power, media representation, protest and resistance, and intersectional feminism—work that continues to inform everything she does through Project Enough.
Shannon is also the Executive Director of Charlotte for Choice, where she leads efforts focused on expanding access, education, and advocacy around reproductive health. Her work is rooted in connecting people to information, resources, and each other—while addressing the systems that impact real lives.
Through Project Enough, Shannon brings together her background in education, storytelling, and advocacy to create experiences that are engaging, accessible, and grounded in purpose. Whether through talks, workshops, or live storytelling events, her goal is to create spaces where people feel curious, challenged, and inspired to think—and act—differently.
