Meet Anthony Joshua | Life Coach & Therapist

We had the good fortune of connecting with Anthony Joshua and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Anthony, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
When I got into the field of Social Work I knew that at some point I would want to start my own practice, I just didn’t know when or how I would go about it. After gaining experience in different sectors of the field of mental health, I contracted with an online Life Coaching agency which was the catalyst to me starting my business. I knew I wanted to positively impact clients without being limited to a specific state, I also knew I no longer wanted to split profit. Being my own boss seemed like the only option to be able to take full control of my life, so that’s what I did.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Mental Wealth Coaching is a mental health and personal development program founded in 2021 by Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Anthony Joshua. Our focus is to equip Founders, Entrepreneurs, and Creatives with the tools to eliminate stress and overwhelm so they can scale their businesses without burning out and live a more fulfilled life with heightened consciousness. Our primary areas of expertise are mindset, communication, emotional intelligence, handling change, unlearning, vulnerability, and conflict management.

I’m most proud of the growth that I witness in my clients week by week. I commend anyone who is able to acknowledge that their current way of being isn’t serving them, and they take action to do something about it.

Getting my business from point A, a thought, to point B, serving clients Nation wide was no easy feat. I had to overcome imposter syndrome and really embrace an entrepreneurial mindset. I had to take a step back from the distractions and commit to focusing on my business. I struggled with a lack of support, there were days when I was winging it. All in all, the lessons learned along the way were worthwhile.

I want the world to know the Mental Wealth Coaching is a Black owned business dedicated to empowering those who those who struggle seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Our philosophy, “You are your greatest investment”, stems from the understanding that you have to be whole in order to effectively show up for others. Fill your cup, and pour into others with the overflow.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
South Florida is a very exciting place. The weather and palm trees alone makes everyday feel like a vacation. If some friends were in town I’d take them bar hopping on Ocean Drive, dinner at Barton G or Victory Lounge. We would hit up Dukunoo Jamaican Kitchen for the vibes, and walk around Wynwood Walls. A relaxing day at the beach would be on the itinerary as well, maybe do some shopping at Dolphin Mall or Aventura Mall.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Along my entrepreneurial journey I’ve had several people support and assist me with making my vision come to life. I’d like to dedicate this shout out to Dr. Marsha Evans. She has supported my ideas since the very beginning and played an integral role in my decision to start my business when I did. Having someone to believe in you when you’re stepping into the unknown is helpful, it takes the pressure off a bit and increases confidence.
