Today we’d like to introduce you to Chanel Scott.
Chanel Scott is Creator of CheMinistry, a relationship platform, Co-Creator of Relationship Status, an online radio talk show with 2x NBA Champion Josh Powell and Co-Author of Girl Power Uncensored, a compilation of women stories.
A prominent figure in the romantic relational sphere, Chanel moderates CheMinistry, a relationship platform, a popular relationship panel discussion and event-based in Atlanta, GA, that features celebrity and influential guests who share through experiential knowledge or expertise as it relates to the topic at hand. Notably the Queen of Relationship Talk, she evokes transparent and candid dialogue on relational topics specifically geared toward fostering healthy relationships between men and women. As the dialogue ensues, the panelists engage their audience in a series of intimate exchange and compelling conversation.
Chanel possesses an intrinsic desire to advocate for healthy relationships. Earlier this year Chanel and Co-Creator 2x NBA Champion Josh Powell launched Relationship Status online radio talk show. The dynamic duo takes to the virtual space to talk about Love and Relationships and the varying perspectives between both men and women. The idea is to change the narrative on the so-called complexities in romantic relationships. “Relationships are really simple, Josh says. Most of the complications in relationships comes from within ourselves. If you want to keep your relationship simple, you have to be willing to occasionally have the hard conversation.” On the other side of the spectrum is Chanel’s viewpoint. She also says it’s important to have transparency to simplify matters of the heart, but it can be difficult to have the ‘hard conversation’ because men complicate the relationship with mixed signals.
You see, Chanel’s desire to advocate for healthy relationships is not just another artistic and innovative idea. She has crafted an interwoven brand of successes that mirror a collage of experiences that emerged out of her life. It rivets the mind and the senses. In order to appreciate her creativity, you must understand the woman behind it, you must understand how she views the world, the struggles she faced, and the enormous giants she had to fight through to get herself and her brand (one and the same) to where it is today.
Chanel’s credentials were first burnished almost 11 years ago as a ministry volunteer who served tirelessly in the Marketing and Media sector of her local church. A progressive people of God, she was given tremendous opportunities to serve in the capacity of her gifts and talents. She sought to tap into her purpose as she had recently earned a Master of Business Administration and Marketing degree with no real direction on her next career move. She discerned that God wanted to do more through her life than just the ordinary run-of-the-mill career seeking the world’s success and no real significance. She reluctantly answered God’s call and that’s where the vision for CheMinistry, a relationship platform was birthed. She had a strong desire for healthy relationship because she’d never experienced true love from a man. Parallel to her discovery of purpose, she endured an excruciating heartbreak intertwined with a church hurt that brought her life to a screeching halt. She watched a man whom she believed God told her was her husband, marry another woman and at the same time, he was her pastor. Chanel’s story is chronicled in her newly released book, Girl Power Uncensored, a compilation of women stories.
Chanel was summoned to an unlimited place of authentic power relative to her presence here in the earth realm. The Creator Himself has invested a dimension of Himself on the inside of her which needed to be understood, embraced, and developed for release to others. You see, it didn’t become clear to Chanel until she began to reflect over her life’s journey. She derived sustenance, strength, and purpose by tapping into her authentic self. When you arise to this level of consciousness relative to the unlimited power of authenticity, you possess a God-created vessel. Chanel began to understand her created worth and function from that original place. Her journey is the epitome of a progressive process that tells a grand story from the visionary’s story to her next relationship platform.
Today, Chanel is known for her love, compassion, sincerity, and advocacy for healthy relationships among her peers and the world.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
CheMinistry was inspired by my inability to sustain healthy relationship with a man. At the time of its inception, I’d just turned 41 and I was single, never married and I had no children. I’d been celibate for eight years and now I was beginning to “explore” my options again. I wanted to understand the male perspective. I’d noticed a pattern of what I called “Dating Discouragement” prior to my eight year period of celibacy. That was four years ago… Today as I continue to evolve as a woman I’ve gained a level of self-awareness that makes me look at “ME”. Four years ago, when I began CheMinistry I had a different perspective on dating that lacked accountability and responsibility for my own actions. If this question was asked four years ago I would respond with the following: “I would go out on a date, meet someone that I’d really like, we’d talk on the phone and everything would be going well. Then all of a sudden they’d stop calling and I didn’t know why because nothing significant would’ve happened (in my opinion) and I wanted to understand the gap in communication”.
Now as I’ve grown older and become more cognizant of my own actions, I’ve noticed that I suffer from a tremendous amount of anxiety during the dating process of getting to know someone which has caused me to become overly emotional and even lash out angrily in an attempt to protect myself from what seemed to either be a man “playing games” or if I didn’t receive proper acknowledgment especially around other people. I would challenge any woman who are having similar disparities to really take a step back and assess their own individual situation to make sure they’re in a healthy mental space before engaging someone else in the dating process. This will take a great deal of transparency and vulnerability.
