My name is Tawanda Chirenda. I founded Becoming a Willing Student to empower visionary, smart and passionate 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 isn’t easy because I have been through it myself.

Unlock the Next-Level Business Growth

Before I founded Becoming a Willing Student, I had to ask myself some very tough questions. I was dealing with a lot of challenges as an entrepreneur, and I wanted help breaking past these barriers. I wanted to take my business 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 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 Becoming a Willing Student. Our entrepreneurial approach is 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 team 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 program has been designed with you in mind. Each program level builds on and compliments previous program levels, 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 an entrepreneur and build the business and team you’ve always wanted. In our coaching program, we’ll talk about everything that you might be worried about as an entrepreneur - your products, services, customers, sales, goals, income, brand, and team.

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

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

  • It’s about needs.

  • It’s about your craft.

  • It’s about being compelling and flourishing.
