Season the pork shoulder with salt and black pepper.
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork shoulder and sear on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the pork from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic, sliced carrots, and sliced celery to the pot. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Return the pork shoulder to the pot and pour in the chicken broth and coconut aminos. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to a low simmer, cover, and cook until the pork is tender and cooked through, about 30 minutes.
Remove the pork from the pot and shred using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the pot.
Add the spiralized zucchini noodles to the soup and simmer for an additional 3-4 minutes until the noodles are tender.
Stir in the chopped parsley and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
