We had the pleasure of interviewing our credit repair and tax professional expert BOSS located in Aubrey, Texas. Let’s see what she has to say!

Tell us about yourself!

My name is Shakila Morris and I am 24 years old. I like to label myself as a serial entrepreneur because I operate multiple successful businesses. My journey started approximately 2 years ago when I lost my daughter and grandmother. This took a toll on me and I was determined to bring light to both tragic situations. I took that leap of faith and became an entrepreneur and never looked back! I knew I was not returning to Corporate America. When I reflect, I think of the times I borrowed money from friends and family just to survive. Now, I am a 6-figure business owner and well on my way to becoming a 7-figure business owner. Throughout this journey, I’ve thanked God for allowing me to get to where I am in life. I am very grateful for the drastic but positive changes in my life and the woman and business owner I’ve become.

What is your profession? What do you do as an entrepreneur?

I am a tax preparer and I own a credit restoration company. Elegance Financial Services is a company that focuses on financial literacy in addition to preparing individuals to reach financial independence. Elegance Financial Services, also provide business consulting services to help individual elevate and expand their brands. I have helped over 300 individuals purchase homes and counting.

Who or what is your number one motivator and why?

Undoubtedly, my children and my grandmother serve as my number one motivators.

What is your "why"?

My why is centered around the pain I experienced prior to starting Elegance Financial Services. Prior to entrepreneurship, I lived in motels, lost my unborn daughter, and also lost my grandmother within months of losing my daughter. The pain and defeat I experienced were unmatched and those experiences ultimately fueled me to better myself. I decided to face depression and face all the defeat I was experiencing in such a short period of time, and now here we are! I am Shakila Morris. A 6 figure business owner and living in my purpose.

If you could give a piece of advice to someone who aspires to become an entrepreneur, what would your advice be?

My advice would be to never give up. Entrepreneurship is hard and it’s not for everyone, however, your determination and grit will allow you to maneuver through the obstacles you face as an entrepreneur. As an entrepreneur, you will work long hours, have sleepless nights, and there will be many challenges you face; but trust me, the end reward is amazing.
