Meet Vashanti Taylor | Comedian| Author |Speaker |Life Coach

We had the good fortune of connecting with Vashanti Taylor and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Vashanti, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I have been an entrepreneur since 16. So its always been in me to do. Started my business in my 20’s doing crochet braids on the side. In 2010 I took a leap of faith and left corporate to pursue my passion of being full time entrepreneur. Being a Inspirational Comedian,- Author- Motivational Speaker I loved doing all the things that involved me encouraging others. Realizing that this did not just have to be something to just do on the side but I could make it as business.
 

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Vashanti A. Taylor is a businesswoman who creatively balances the many roles of womanhood.

I often uses everyday life experiences about my family, faith, and love of food and turn them into laughing matters. I believe that laughter is good medicine and we can all use a daily dose.

As a Comedian-Author-Speaker-Life Coach I use my platform to empower, influence, and motivate others to change their lives for the better. Using the foundation of my book CHANGE YOUR MIND CHANGE YOUR LIFE has been a vehicle to help many in changing their mindset to over obstacles.

I am most excited about becoming a certified Life Coach with an emphasis in change. (Feb 2024) Not only am I coach in this area but my experience in the game has helped me to lead others to change their mind and change their lives as well.

My biggest challenge in life I finally overcame losing over 60lbs naturally and maintained and many years of failed attempts. This was a result of a MINDSET SHIFT which was a journey worth taking and the biggest lesson that I have learned. I used that experience to create the ABC’s of change to take you on a 28 day journey of mindset change. No matter the goal to be accomplished it all starts with
Action and having the right (A) attitude.
Believe you can and match it with your (B) behavior
Commitment and (C) consistency on the journey is key to seeing results

I want to the world to know that I can only do what I do because of the source of my strength and help from God.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Of course I would take her to visit the King Historic District and have a little history lesson. Since I like to eat I would take her to a couple of simple places that I like such as Breakfast Boys, Slutty Vegan and we are up hanging late at night a trip to the Waffle house. Also for good laughs and a good time we would also check out the Atlanta Comedy Theatre.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I dedicate this Shoutout to my biggest supporters. My husband first for ALWAYS believing in me and encouraging me on my journey of following my passions and living in purpose. My parents have also been instrumental in helping me along the way as well. I’m forever grateful for them.
