Shanthra , we’re thrilled to have you on our platform and we think there is so much folks can learn from you and your story. Something that matters deeply to us is living a life and leading a career filled with purpose and so let’s start by chatting about how you found your purpose.
I discovered my purpose by asking myself, How can I serve God, my family, others, and my community?

As an accomplished author, I published The Ninth Hour: Getting Through Life Transitions. ( You can purchase the book on Amazon) I have traveled locally and nationally to inspire and inform people of all ages, encouraging them to walk in their God-given purpose.
I am also the founder and president of the Enlightenment Center, a training and development organization that collaborates with experts across various fields. The mission of the Enlightenment Center is to encourage participants, educate families, and empower communities to live fulfilled, balanced, and healthy lives using the resources we provide.
Nearly everything I am called to do stems from a foundation of servanthood.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
The three most qualities and skills I have to share with others:
1. Leadership Abilities- I strive to help guide people towards achieving a common goal.
2. Compassion- Showing empathy and sympathy for others.
3. Public Speaking- Effectively empowering people to live life with Purpose.
Before we go, maybe you can tell us a bit about your parents and what you feel was the most impactful thing they did for you?
The most impactful thing my parents did for me, was to teach me how to serve others and in serving others you will find your passion and purpose. I grew up in an environment seeing them give to those in need and just simply be selfless. My parents took in foster children and also adopted children. I grew up with them spreading so much Love and care for families and so many communities.
