According to The 2019 State of Women-Owned Businesses Report by American Express, the average income for all women-owned businesses in the US is a decent $142,900. However, businesses owned by African-American women only average a mere $24,000, an amount that is six times less.
One company is on a mission to even this statistical imbalance.
With a strong belief that businesses and the market should be inclusive and equitable across races and ethnicities, Solo 2 CEO Business Academy serves to empower entrepreneur women of color with the strategies, systems and support they need to become successful CEOs in business and in life.
The business coaching firm is led by award winning business strategist, Shayla N. Atkins. As a black woman herself, Shayla understands the struggles of business owners like her who are fighting against systemic barriers in order to narrow the wealth equity gap. She has helped numerous clients through her coaching services in building high powered teams, streamlining their operations and optimizing their business model and now hosts an exclusive community that is a safe space for high-performing women of color to share their experiences, successes, lessons and insights.
“We are closing the transformation gap for women of color coaches, experts & thought leaders who are ready to elevate from Solopreneurs to CEOs,” said Shayla.
Aside from being a certified coach, Shayla Atkins holds an extensive list of credentials including being a wife and mom of twins, being awarded the Brainz Magazine, one of the Top 500 Global Entrepreneurs of 2020, a Fortune 500 global D&I leader, a Lean Six Sigma Blackbelt, a sought-after speaker, and an author. She is also a Certified Change Management expert and an experienced Organizational Development strategist and practitioner.

In just 6 weeks, she has helped me streamline my business! I have identified my ideal client, increased my revenue by 300%, and put systems in place to automate my business.
