My awesome food list …. for now :)
As music feeds my soul, certain food lights up my life. The colors, the presentation and of course, the taste. My top 10 awesome food list looks as follows:
Food Lovers Market in the CBD, I have recently started introducing fish into my diet, the only ones I can eat (i.e. face does not swell up [...]
Six months in review …
Okay so it’s been more than six months, but lots has transpired. Yes, I said “transpired“. Using the word “happened” feels insignificant at least.
So, we’re looking back and taking stock. What exactly has been filling my time? The new baby/business, the new-new business, new projects, new clients, new experiences.
I’ve officially decided to keep www.shanakay.com as [...]
Entrepreneur, how art thou? Patient and persistent, that’s how :)
I haven’t blogged about entrepreneurship or technology in a while. Why? I’ve been busy with various social media campaigns for other companies. However, in the interim, I have learned a few valuable lessons I thought best to share :)?
Onto my second business, oh, I’ve started a third, called Onyx Interweb, which has a Digital Agency [...]
The eBiz truth, honest to blog….
I’ve learned so much, since starting another business and they are hard lessons to learn. I wish someone had shared them with me, but I guess one needs to go through them to emerge victoriously. Here are some of my lessons i.t.o challenges I feel are the most pertinent ones for start-ups to realize:

Shiny penny or nitty gritty?
I’ve been told (many times) that I have “shiny penny” syndrome, evident in this very blog post since it has been inspired by the detail I was involved in. However, in addition to this, my magnifying eye for detail exists. This often leads me to send feedback for issues I have no involvement in, mainly [...]
The loneliness of being an entrepreneur, it’s not what you think…
I’ve heard it many times and been there a while ago, but the true meaning of this only hits home now. Going from a growing business with people, process and politics (not much), suddenly, there is no “office” to go to, no friends around during the day to catch up with (since they are working [...]
Tomorrow, last year, my life changed – in every way possible!
Last year on March 3rd, getting ready for another Software Symposium, little did I know that the events that would transpire this day, would have a rolling effect on my very being. My relationship status changed, my name changed, my business changed and my location changed, well slightly. All this resulting from one brief meeting [...]
Today I fed my soul and it feels great (”,)
It all started with feeding my body and mind. After a terrible night of broken sleep and nightmares, I woke up slightly (okay more than slightly, babies would have crawled away screaming :D) cranky or rather mad at something or someone. In no mood for gym, I knew if I did not go, I would [...]
