Anikka Wright

Anikka Wright has been on her entrepreneurial journey since 2020. Mid-way through her college career, she decided that she was more interested in joining her Dad (Neo Wright, our Founder) in his business endeavors. After being coached by her father and learning time-tested success principles, Anikka has transformed her life in the 3 most important areas which are mind, body and spirit.

Anikka’s title at 24 years old is Senior Vice President. She is working closely with her Dad and is acting as his personal assistant. Like her Father, Anikka’s dreams have no limits. She is a true “people person” and FUN to be around.

Say hello to Anikka.
