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

Hi Manëësh, maybe we can start at the very start – the idea – how did you come up with the idea for your business?
Since I can remember I’ve always been involved in some kind of physical activity, especially being in the military for 10 years. Now being older I decided weightlifting was going to be my primary focus; getting as big as my body will allow me to get. At the age of 25, I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in both knees and I began having many health problems. Sparing the details, I would get so sick that I would have to be out of the gym for weeks and months sometimes.

Not being able to workout, walk up and down stairs or play with my pets, along with other factors began to keep me in a state of constant depression. At which point, I had given up and accepted that I was never going to meet my goals and I was going to be in pain for the rest of my life.

So many thoughts swirling through my mind, giving up screamed the loudest. Holding on for dear life, that there must be more to it than this. I set out a spiritual journey to find my purpose. That’s when a former close friend introduced me to the world of herbal living. I was so fascinated that I began to research all day, all night; I never would have guessed this would change the way I lived life. Seeing how all this helped me, I felt obligated to share how I got to state I am in at this very moment.

Now carrying a passion to help people on their spiritual journey, gain back control of their health with herbal remedies and boost confidence levels with fitness; I created my company INNER-G Wellness.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
At INNER-G Wellness, we focus on the three common areas of life – health, fitness, and spirituality. INNER-G Wellness makes it easy for you to address your needs all in one place, and its LGBTQ friendly!

Our services consist of alternative health methods, physical training, and spiritual alignment. Our alternative health services come with specialty blended herbal teas, decoctions, and oils. Our fitness service focuses on improving heart health and mental health through a focus on physical health. Our spiritual services focus on clearing negative energy and aligning chakras to heal and balance your energy centers. We use aromatherapy, energetic hands, sound therapy, crystal therapy, and vibration therapy to complete this alignment.

Our services and modern medicine, herbology, and fitness create a harmonious and prosperous union for our customers to live happy, peaceful lives.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Truthfully speaking, I am not the friend that shows people around the city lol. I’m a huge home body but if I were to go anywhere it would be to local parks, gem/crystal shows, museums and places of healing and restoration. Going to spas is one example of that. Also being vegetarian pushing vegan, I’d probably get them some Slutty Vegan for the first meal in Atlanta. If they wanted to go somewhere in particular, I would certainly accompany them.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
When I say Ja’Mel Ware has been pivotal in the expansion of my business and mental business growth, that is an understatement. The list of things he has taught me, showed and helped me with would appear to be never ending. I’m so very grateful.

Omega Chuckii has jumped in feet first and has backed me from the moment he realized the mission I am on. It is rare these days to have people come into your journey for the shear pleasure of seeing you succeed. For him, I am also very grateful.

My loyal and consistent customer base. You all have proven to me that I am on the right path each time you seek my services. Whether it be advice, an Energetic Realignment, herbal remedies or guidance on your fitness journey; I am so grateful that you trust and have chosen me to guide you back to your center of peace.

To everyone else, thank you for being the contrast I needed to see I am more than I was allowing myself to be.

I love you all. Agape.
