SHARN Khaira - Speaker
Sharn Khaira is an ex-luxury wedding planner in Asian and Fusion weddings at Desi Bride Dreams. She is an advocate for Asian Female Entrepreneurs and has set up the AFEC (Asian Female Entrepreneurs Collective) to help others be successful in business.
She loves helping female entrepreneurs step into their purpose, and she views it as an honor to watch as they discover the best versions of themselves while creating the impact and income they crave. She believes you can build the life you desire because anything is possible. Why? She has walked the same path.
She grew up on the roughest streets of Swindon surrounded by drugs and prostitutes. Then she became a bullied corporate employee where she felt stuck, unfulfilled, and miserable. Through every phase of my life, she never failed to realise she held the power to change my own course. So, I decided to leave my high-flying marketing agency role with a firm belief that I was meant for more than days spent working 9-5 with a mere 4 weeks of holiday per year. She was laughed at but she knew I had it in her.
Sharn left university and started work just as the recession in 2009 began to bite. Long hours and a culture of workplace bullying didn’t beat Sharn entirely but her job certainly wasn’t making her happy. Sharn left her high-flying agency marketing role to follow her heart and found a very different style of business in the wedding planning world when she launched Desi Bride Dreams in September 2015.
Desi Bride Dreams has been featured in some of the biggest UK wedding titles including You & Your Wedding magazine and Perfect Wedding magazine. The power bloggers behind the likes of B.Loved, Nu-Bride, and Secret Wedding Blog have also supported Desi Bride Dreams, a rarity for a new business.
Sharn has also spoken out about the Asian wedding market and her role for titles such as Asian Today and Asian Leader as well as being featured on the BBC Breakfast show as a guest expert and the BBC Asian Network. She’s fast becoming the go-to commentator for anything and everything related to Asian weddings.
Apart from having a successful wedding planning business, she knew she had a deeper and more meaningful calling. In 2017 she set up a community for Asian Female Entrepreneurs so they could come together to talk about business, cultural challenges, Taboo topics, and more! The group now has over 1600 members.
Now Sharn is on a global mission to support, empower, and educate as many Asian female entrepreneurs as possible to smash down cultural blocks and live the lives they deserve. She started by sharing all she had learned with other female entrepreneurs, and now she serves as a business and mindset mentor, offers one to one mentoring, masterminds.
She is now also the host of the biggest Asian female entrepreneur events in the UK.
She likes to lead by example because if she can do it so can you!
