This Boss Woman Is Making An Impact In The World!

Shaina Renee is a serial entrepreneur, a woman of faith, a mother, and a true power woman. She was raised in Chicago but has lived in several countries such as Italy, China, and Paris. Shaina has two degrees one in business marketing and another in hospitality. She started modeling at the age of 17 and has worked with many modeling agencies (e.g.) Elite Model Management. When traveling the world she noticed the lack of diversity for models and brands and this is when The Model Knowledge Group (TMKG) was created. A diverse creative agency that focuses on elevating your art. At TMKG they produce events, marketing campaigns, and overall outstanding brand development. TMKG has been around since 2014 and is making a difference every day.

Shaina is also a business coach, she is the founder of SRSL Consulting which is quite different from her fashion background. However, helping small businesses gain access to funding is a true mission; the lack of these resources is one of the reasons why most businesses fail. She wanted to change the narrative for women-owned businesses because to her being financially literate is important.

We asked Shaina to give us two key principles on how to brush up on financial knowledge.

  1. Read books. An excellent book is Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.

  2. Learn about investment strategies and hire a mentor.

Ms. Renee’s goal is to continue to build many businesses that impact the world, so her legacy can live on forever. One of her favorite quotes is “ I don’t like being put in a box, if God calls me to the mission, I know it’s the correct path”.

High-Profile Model Priya Soars with Naked Lynx Loungewear

Naked Lynx Loungewear was founded in 2020 by Priya Jain at the height of the pandemic, one year after she moved to New York City. Priya wanted to create a fashion brand that would empower women by helping them to project success through magnifying their personal appeal and by contributing to their overall sense of self-worth.

Prior to launching Naked Lynx Loungewear, Priya was well-acquainted with the world of fashion through her countless photo shoots and projects as a leading model. Her modeling resume would be nearly impossible to cover exhaustively, although her prominence in the industry is attested to by her innumerable collaborations with the world-class photographer Ash Gupta (mainly for 838 Media Group in Los Angeles as well as in Gupta’s own galleries).

Other high-profile photographers that Priya has worked with include Kesler Tran, Yves Huy Truong, Max Thompson, Jen Senn and Sam Demshek. Priya has walked for Veronica Paegen in the Miami Swim Week and in California for Nordstrom’s Trunk Club Business Wear, and she has modeled for such illustrious brands as Brilliant Carbon Jewelry, Gooseberry Swim, Wolford, Fae Swim, Veronica Peagen Swim, Raju Clothing, Blu Dream Swim, and 138 Water. Priya’s image became so in-demand both inside and outside of the modeling industry that she featured in music videos for Snoop Dog and Monday Justice.

Priya’s prolific modeling career has given her two unique vantage points from which to approach women’s fashion:

By working with highly talented photographers as well as the personnel of top luxury brands, Priya developed an intimate understanding of exactly what communicates success, beauty and personal magnetism.

Furthermore, as an in-demand model who has posed in countless photo shoots for the crème de la crème of luxury fashion, Priya developed an uncommonly intimate understanding of what exactly makes a woman feel successful, beautiful and magnetic.

Priya incorporates her unique insights into her own company’s approach to fashion, rolling out products that will better enable women to not only be their best selves, but to feel like their best selves, too. Since these products are largely informed by Priya’s modeling career, which has had a particular emphasis on luxury resort wear, the brand’s catalog offers silk and satin robes, swimsuit tops and bottoms, and high-end sweats.

Finding New Inspiration – From Barcelona to Bora Bora 

Priya is a committed cosmopolitan, running her company from both New York City and Los Angeles. Priya also makes frequent trips to the fashion capitals of Europe where she always gathers fresh inspiration. Her influence is not limited to the European and American continents, however. A self-described ‘travel junkie,’ Priya has also visited India, Japan, Bora Bora, Cancun and Anguilla. Priya finds inspiration not only from the fashion designers in these areas around the world, but in the regional aesthetics and flavors of these places.

Priya is equally influenced by the simple pleasures of slowing down and soaking in a particular place. The feeling of laying in the sun on a picturesque beach is imbued into every one of Naked Lynx Loungewear’s products. As the company succinctly puts it, their products are “for the babe that likes to be seaside in Malibu or poolside in the Hamptons.”

The Values of Naked Lynx Loungewear  

Priya is a vegan of eight years and has an indefatigable passion for animals. For this reason, the company does not make any use of animal products in their catalog. With the proceeds from Naked Lynx Loungewear, Priya hopes to start an animal rescue sometime within the next ten years. The company also takes great care to source all of their products locally between New York City and Los Angeles, to reduce their overall carbon footprint.

With their catalog, Naked Lynx Loungewear aims to facilitate greater happiness and self-assurance in women around the world.

Some of their most notable honorees include television star Andre Bellos, retired nursing leaders Leretha Thomas, Marianne Galloway and Adia Anderson, and pageant queen/education leader Dr. Delmar Dominique Peterson.

The Fresh Faces Project is a nonprofit initiative owned by the Calynn Communications & Creative corporation.

They made history in January 2021 as being one of the largest pro bono marketing agencies in the world and have been seen on the front pages of media giants such as but not only Yahoo! Finance, Billboard HipHop, E! News Sri Lanka, New York Times Daily, The Washington Mail, The Los Angeles Tribune and more! They’ve been coined a “legion of legends” in the media led by the Founder, Calynn M. Lawrence (Ms. USA Universe Tourism 2021), that has been called “Supergirl of Small Business PR (Various outlets),” “One of The Greatest Minds In Creative PR (A Valid Review),” and “The Queen Midas of Small Business Marketing (Humor & Style Magazine).”

This year the ceremony hosted a thorough program with three separate honors that were available to guests! They bestowed LIfetime Honoree awards to guests who had shown immense support to their cause and made sizable contributions to their industries and communities. They offered Innovator Awards to creatives and entrepreneurs who have been making waves in their fields. And, most notably, they had the official coronation of their second class of Royal Ambassador queens, The Artists of Altruism, who will reign for the next year representing the organization in their philanthropy, business and entertainment work! Some of them were repeat queens who did well in their reign last year. One of whom, Destiny Faith, was the 2022 Service Leadership Award winner for having the best service portfolio.

The profiles of these chosen queens are not only notable but highly impressive and the work that they have already done in their communities speaks volumes! It is no wonder they were given the highest honors available within the organization, royal ambassadorship to reign for an entire year as the faces of the cause. Some of their quotes include:
“Throughout my rein this year I plan to focus on being the advocate for all victims of sexual assault, but most importantly children. Being a survivor myself I know how hard it is to come forward and I hope I can be the courage others need to report their own assaults.”
- Destiny Faith, Ms. Fresh Face Universal 2022, 2021 Service Leader Awardee
“Our family faced a huge tragedy this year that left my husband paralyzed chest down. During this time I've learned the hard way the complications and impacts of spinal cord injuries. I will be using my crown to not only speak out on SCI and everything surrounding it but as well as the role spouses/family take on when they become full time caregivers to one injured.” - Carolyn, Ms. Elite Fresh Face Universal 2022
“As the appointed Ms. Elite Fresh Face USA 2022, I have the opportunity to serve my reign congruently with my 2023 title as the "Most beautiful on Earth" Miss Tourism Pageant Ambassador. Although the word pageantry seems glamorous, I always gravitate towards platforms that encapsulate philanthropic qualities. With that being said, as an ambassador of the earth I will strive this year to create fun events in and around my community to showcase global awareness.”
- Michaela, Ms. Elite Fresh Face USA 2022
“My Pageantry Platform is raising awareness and garnering resources for the homeless population in America. This issue is important to me because it affects so many people, especially young mothers and members of the BIPOC community, both of whom are groups I belong to and empathize with. A quote that inspires me is ‘The Happiest People I know are those who lose themselves in the service of others’ by Gordon B.Hinckley.”
- Marshae, Miss Fresh Face America 2022 “ I'm a breast cancer survivor, 19 years and counting. This is something that is near and dear to my heart. So, this year I will focus on that, but will be open to anyone who may need a listening ear, dealing with any type of cancer or chronic illness. I'm here to support those who are fighting or have fought disease. No one should have to deal with it alone. I have supported these causes long before I was diagnosed. Thus, if I can help make even a moment in someone's life, it will be well worth my effort.”
- Miriam, Ms. Elite Fresh Face America 2022
“ I received a shining star award while thriving through the pandemic and now am advocating for Colon and Renal Cancer. My mom, Alice Morgan died from Colon Cancer in 2006 and my Nephew, John Hackney, Jr.(AKA Little John and my Fred) died from Renal Cancer in 2015. So, I want to stress to everyone the importance of screenings and early detection to help fight for this cause. Being that, My platform is bringing awareness to Colon and Renal Cancer. My mission statement is ‘When it comes to Cancer Screenings, don’t just do it for you, do it for those who love you.’ ”
- Linda, Ms. Forever Fresh Face USA 2022

God Knows Records is run by people with experience in the industry who know what kind of music your audience wants, and how to bring out the best in new artists.

This is where record label come in. Digital music distribution is not always straightforward or easy to wrap your head around. God Knows Records advise artists on which platforms to distribute their music through, and can get the music onto those platforms for them, saving the musicians time and money.
