After doing the hard work of healing herself, she helps others escape the trap of victimhood and choose a better life.
Shalonda “Shay” Anderson has gone through some things. After childhood trauma and devastating adulthood losses and betrayals, she ended up angry, hurt, and “in a really dark space.” Feeling as if she’d lost everything and was on the verge of losing herself, she surrendered to God. And through a process of prayer, fasting, journaling, she healed and hit upon the idea of rebirth. “That word just kept sticking out: rebirth,” she says. “Where I am right now is a rebirth. And so I just stuck with it.”
That led to her truly addressing the feelings and experiences she had kept bottled up inside for so long and freed her to become the positive entrepreneur and inspiration to others that she now understands she was destined to be. Her clothing company is named for the recovery she experienced: Rebirth Custom Brand, what she refers to as “an empowerment brand.”
“Sometimes we need that confidence, the little statements on our shirts. So it’s almost like you put your shirt on and you feel that boost. You’re wearing your confidence.” And while she sees her brand as empowering and inspirational, she emphasizes that the motivation has to come from within. “No matter what you’ve been through, if you make a choice to want to get over it, you can get over it. But it has to be a choice. It has to be something you want to do. Either you’re going to be a victim or you’re not.”
Shay has the experience to back up her words. You can read more of her story in the inspiring new book Moms Who Boss Up Post-Pandemic, by Tam Luc, the author, educator, and podcaster dedicated to helping women “boss up.” The book collects 16 interviews with moms who are side hustlers and multitaskers, who faced the uncertainties of the Covid pandemic—and other obstacles—by embracing their strengths and finding their authentic paths. They have so much to share and to teach, and while every story is unique, there is creativity and perseverance at the core of each one.
