In this episode of Cseking In, Shandi Schwartz, the owner of Strut Footwear & Apperal Inc., shares how she found her footing as a businesswoman. 

Throughout the discussion, the former teacher tells the tale of how following the advice she'd give to students, "leap and the net will appear," became the first step towards opening a business in the Misson Park Shopping Centre. 

In this welcoming atmosphere, she blends an affinity for fashion and footwear along with a natural ability to bond with others, to provide professional working women, who are busy and on their feet all day, with fashionable shoes they could wear all day, but also feel really good.

Shandi adds that the big gamechanger for her was when she sat down with Futurpreneur. This program assisted her with writing a business plan, identifying the market, demographic and ultimately, became a pivotal moment in building this business.

'Cseking In' is a series that tells the story of how local leaders got to where they are today.

Guided by Nikki Csek, an exceptionally experienced and compassionate host, her fascination and inquisitive nature guides us through a story that uncovers why and how people grow, persevere and ultimately, achieve success.
