When you lean into your values and your path reveals itself with Sharniya Ferdinand.

Today, I am deeply delighted to share a coffee with someone whose journey is purposeful and inspiring. Sharniya Ferdinand is the Strategic Partnership Inclusion Lead for the NatWest Accelerator. Multi-talented, Sharniya not only leads on Strategic Partnerships, but is a conference facilitator, public speaker, Rising Star award winner, and passionate advocate for global majority aka ethnic minority business owners and diverse professionals! Sharniya is living, breathing proof that when you lean into your values, the path has a way of revealing itself. So grab your coffee, get comfortable… and let's sip into that inspiration! Key takeaways: Pivoted during further education: Sharniya switched degrees after finding the research-heavy BSc didn't align with her passion for bringing people together. Advocated for a New Role: Created her current position by advocating for support for the "global majority" (ethnic minorities), inspired by existing programs for female founders. Honesty Secured a Dream Job: Disclosed a pre-booked 2-month trip during an interview, which led the hiring manager to wait for her. Manages Multiple Passions with "Balance Over Time": Sharniya rejects "daily balance" as a fallacy, instead focusing intensely on different priorities (work, family, hobbies) over longer periods like a year.
