My name is Tawanda Chirenda. I founded BAWS Academy to empower visionary, smart and passionate young entrepreneurs like you with the authentic entrepreneurial mindset and tools you need to become who you want to be. If you want more from your business, I get you because I was you. I know what’s at stake. I understand that becoming who you want to be in business and in your life isn’t easy because I have been through it myself.

Unlock the Next-Level Business Growth

Before I founded BAWS Academy, I had to ask myself some very tough questions. I was dealing with a lot of challenges as a young entrepreneur, and I wanted help breaking past these barriers. I wanted to take my business and life to the next level, but I was stuck.

I wanted to stretch myself, but I didn’t know how. I wanted more authenticity, impact and influence. I wanted to grow my personal brand presence. I wanted to influence others in powerful ways, but I wasn’t sure how to go about it.

I needed a coach to help me and I didn’t know it then. When I started working with my first coach, my life changed for the better. Working with my first coach taught me the power of leading myself first before I could influence anyone else. It taught me how to sell a new idea or product to myself first before I could sell to anyone else. It taught me how to build a smart, fun and caring team around me by building myself first.

It was a thought-provoking and creative process that gave me perspective. I had to become a Willing Student first before I could get the outcomes I wanted.

That’s what we do at BAWS Academy. Our business coaching programs are designed to give you a perspective that will change your life for the better. And then we get to watch you create the business and life you’ve always dreamed about.

I am you.

I know what it means to spend sleepless nights starring at the ceiling worrying about your business. I know what it means to have a racing mind thinking about your next move. I know what it means to have your heart pounding all the time. I know what it means to ask these questions.

What if this doesn’t work out?

What if I lose everything?

May be like me, you lost everything. That’s a story for another day. Be still. If you build right, you will get it all back. I promise. I can show you how to get back up after a hard fall.

I believe in self-reliance. I believe in time alone. However, I don’t want you to be silent. I don’t want you to be stuck. I know you are the rock of your team. I know you are tough. It’s okay to ask for help.

You have more power than you think. You can choose to think differently about your business and your life. You can choose clarity. You can choose calmness. You can choose you. You can choose to be okay right now. As Theodore Roosevelt said “In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.”

Growing your business begins with you. Our business coaching programs have been designed with you in mind. Each program builds on and compliments previous programs, all adding up to a new way of thinking about your business and your life. Your business and your life will change, for the better.

You’ll know exactly what you need to do to grow your impact and influence as a young entrepreneur and build the business and life you’ve always wanted. In our coaching programs, we’ll talk about everything that you might be worried about as a young entrepreneur - your value proposition, sales, competition, customers, team, strategy, goals, income, and brand, etc.

  • It’s about elevating your impact and influence in the global marketplace.

  • It’s about driving long-term strategic value to your business and your customers.

  • It’s about needs.

  • It’s about your craft.

  • It’s about being compelling and flourishing.
