Sharon Onyinye

In our Founder's Pulse series, we spoke with Sharon Onyinye , an experienced product designer of about 7 years who has worked in roles across Nigeria, Germany and the UK. Her journey from product designer to tech founder of Coachli , a platform helping people monetize their expertise through digital products, live events, and one-on-one sessions is anything but ordinary. In this exclusive conversation, we dived into her entrepreneurial journey, her passion, the challenges that comes with founding a startup and the plans of Coachli in the next 5 years. She would also like to collaborate with a Nigeria founder who she admires 😊 Read the full story to find out: https://lnkd.in/dKu6SDTp #Techmoonshot #founder #startup #productdesign

I do not know who needs to hear this, but BE BOLD and TAKE RISKS! Life is too unpredictable to always play it safe or try to predict the exact next steps. We spend so much time asking, "What if it does not work out?" and not enough time asking, "What if it does work out?" Start that business Take that course Post that content What if all your dreams are on the other side of fear and self-doubt? What of all the answers to your prayers depends on you taking a leap without being sure where you will land? Sometimes, it's not even about the goal you have in mind. Maybe the journey there is what changes your life and exposes you to new opportunities and ways of thinking. When I started building Coachli, I had no idea how it would go after the first few months, and honestly, I was overcome by so much doubt and fear. Fast-forward to today. I still have a lot of fears, and I am figuring out so much, but I have grown a lot! I have honed so many skills, and learned about businesses, startups, customer service, and other things I normally would never have been exposed to. So to whoever is scared and looking for encouragement and confirmation, take that step; God is with you 💜 💜
