Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Iyanifa Shondra Cheris. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Iyanifa Shondra, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today We believe kindness is contagious and so we’d love for you to share with us and our audience about the kindest thing anyone has ever done for you?
I know that my response is going to be unconventional. It also may mot be the chapter or entire novel response I like to give. However, I feel it is on divine time and the right message for those reading this at this very moment. Let me explain .
I originally was going to mention strangers and family praying for me from around the world, regardless of the spiritual or religious practice; hiring me to fulfill whatever need a person has depending on my business at that time, gifting me with items that the researched, heard me say I like or made by hand. So much more to list, however, one common theme.
What is that theme you may ask? Read what I listed again and see if you can guess.
Time … each person gave of themselves the one currency in life you cannot get back. Their time. So when asked, what is the kindest thing anyone has ever done for me, it is give me their time. The ome sacrifice people take for granted.
So with that said … to all my clients in my lifetime and to you all reading this right now, thank you for your time. Thank you for making the decision to do something that involves giving of something you will never get back. Thank you for doing it so effortlessly that you never even saw it as a big deal.
May you all have a divine morning, afternoon or evening after reading this.

Please forgive any typos. I didn’t want to delay this any longer and I am actually writing this via my cell while flying to Nigeria. I appreciate your patience with me responding. My schedule has been tight and sleepless. I love helping people.
I have a group following me to Nigeria to spiritually change their lives. Some have never flown outside the U.S. I’m excited for them. Here they are giving of their time to someone they only met via social media/online.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
Spiritual Life Coach and Business Strategists that is an Ìyánífá in the Yoruba people’s of Nigeria Isese Tradition commonly known as Ifa.
What’s worked well for you in terms of a source for new clients?
The best source of new clients for me outside of me educating individuals on social media about Ifa or business practices is referrals from individuals in the wellness, spiritual and business spaces.
Client testimonials in those spaces as to the work we do (I don’t do this alone) is really awesome. If not their, we get emails or phone updates on how their lives have changed.
How did you build your audience on social media?
Short answer is I saw a need to educate and aid others. Content comes to me through my interactions with those that watch me.
So I utilize teachable moments or inquiries to give them a reason to come back and follow me on social media.
No real magic sauce. I’m just meeting their needs and I am thankful that I am able to do so.
