On this episode, Shontavia Johnson takes us on her journey of walking away from pain into purpose. She speaks on identifying the "why" of your existence as the basis for your career and business decisions. Life gives cues in things we have natural aptitude for and friends & family who have a front row seat to who we are, Shontavia says to seek that feedback. Her signature "Create a Vision" program is an insightful yet easy guide to help you nail your core life expressions and outlook for the next level of your life.
On labels and societal expectations, she highlights how we "define ourselves based on our relationship to other people and not our relationship with ourselves". So beyond her background as an engineer and a lawyer, Shontavia is ultimately the person who "wants to help others succeed". She leaves us with tips on branding, content creation, intellectual property and business.
Shontavia Johnson helps working professionals start their business while employed full-time. Twice named one of the top young lawyers in America, and one of 200 black women to follow on Twitter, Shontavia’s unique background in intellectual property law, technology, education and business make her the perfect strategist for working professionals who are also creatives, side-hustlers, and entrepreneurs. As host of The Shontavia Show, a conversational web series and podcast (see all podcast apps and YouTube), Shontavia tackles the most common questions about starting, operating and growing a business and personal brand.
