Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Shondra Cheris, a certified intuitive business strategist and spiritual life coach, based in Northern Virginia, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

I am an Ìyánífá and a certified intuitive business strategist & spiritual life coach for entrepreneurs, creators & influencers.

Tell us about yourself

My life experiences and spiritual and entrepreneurial journey brought me to the business you see today. I started in a totally different field in the early 2000s, and as I grew and life circumstances changed, so did I. I altered my first business and then established this one.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

My biggest accomplishment being a business owner is my ability to change lives.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

The hardest thing that comes with being a business owner is not all the time you put into your business or the late and sometimes sleepless nights; it's knowing that people depend on you.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Be authentic in your desires for your business.
  2. Determine your worth.
  3. Set up your systems to streamline your interactions with your target audience.

Is there anything else you'd like to share?

Ìyánífá may be written as Iyanifa (ee-ya-nee-fa). The name is a position obtained in the Yoruba Isese (ee-shay-shay) tradition, commonly known as Ifa (ee-fa).
