SHAY GREENWOOD HOMESCHOOL AND HOME BUSINESS MOM

Shay Greenwood is an Entrepreneur, Business & Style Coach, Author, Keynote Speaker, Founder of “The Styled Life” and “The Virtual BFF’s Community for Women!” She is passionate about helping women style-life, which could involve styling your outfit, profession, or home life, into something you love!

Shay attended 8 different elementary schools in California because of the ups and downs coming from a divorced family. Although this could be a negative part of life, Shay is the ultimate optimist! She felt her experiences trained her to connect with people easily and created a love for encouraging and supporting others.

Since she was on the Dance Team and a Cheerleader in high school, she thought she would do this professionally on a football field or basketball court. She never considered that God would give her the opportunity to professionally lead, coach, and cheer online entrepreneurs, using her skills in training rooms for businesses, as well as arenas and auditoriums with audiences!

Graduating from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Shay was able to work for a Management Research Company which allowed her to work as a Management Consultant for clients like Disney World, Toyota, Stryker Medical, and Stedman Graham (yep…Oprah’s boyfriend). In 2017, she was awarded The Encourager of the Year Award from her direct sales company that she has been a part of for 19 years.

Happily married to Roosevelt Greenwood for 23 years, she has 5 children, ages 8-24. She is passionate about helping everyone reach their fullest potential, including her children. Roosevelt and Shay have been homeschool parents for 18 years.

Currently, Shay has an online course called “Facebook Made Easy,” and teaches within the #YourVirtualBff Insiders Group, a membership community that helps women entrepreneurs live out Romans 12:2 “Be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”

Woman To Woman With Joanne The Magazine talked with Shay Greenwood about her experience homeschooling 5 children while being a stay-at-home mom and entrepreneur. It is our pleasure to share her journey.

“Train up a child in the way that he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6. This is the scripture that helped Shay make the decision to homeschool her children and to become an at-home mom.

“It was difficult for me as a brand new Christian. How do I train them if they are gone all day? That’s really when my heart started changing about what God wanted me to do. Titus 2:5 says women are to be keepers of their homes, and that really impacted me, because I didn’t realize the Bible stated that. On my way home from a Bible study one day, I called Roosevelt and said, “Did you know that women are supposed to be keepers of their home?” He said, “Yes,” and I asked when he was planning to tell me that! “I was raised to have a job, be working in corporate
