My name is Latoya Shanell and I am a lady boss who juggles being a wife and toddler mommy with owning multiple businesses and managing multiple brands. I created L’ Shanell Events, LLC in 2008, Etsy shop, L’ Shanell Party Boutique, in 2015, Etsy pop up shop, Biden Harris Merch, in 2020 and L’ Shanell Consulting in 2020. I founded brands Event Pros Unplugged in 2015, I Am Chicago Fashion in 2017 and Lady Boss Round Table in 2018. My journey has been exciting, frustrating, exhilarating, exhausting, inspiring and everything in between. I’ve definitely felt alone in my business and I know I’m not the only one. I discovered that being surrounded by a community of small business owners who truly understand the ups and downs of entrepreneurship is the key to truly reaching a new level of success. It gives me joy to pass along a new resource or tool that can bring fellow entrepreneurs success.
