Wani Iris Manly
Esq.
Paris, FRANCE
Wani Iris Manly, Esq. is an international speaker, consultant, two-time bestselling author, entrepreneur and attorney. She is the founder of W. Manly, P.A., a boutique corporate and securities law firm she started in 2008 in Miami, Florida, while serving some of the most recognizable companies in the world including, MasterCard Int'l, Inc., Visa, Inc., and Office Depot, Inc., to name a few. Licensed in both the states of Florida and Illinois, Wani has over 16 years of international business, corporate law and securities law experience working with U.S. public traded companies, small business enterprises, entrepreneurs, individual stockholders.
She is the bestselling author of "Get Out Of SURVIVAL MODE And Live the Life You Really Want," "There Is Spirituality And Then There Is Truth," and is currently writing her third book, "84 Rue Nollet," which depicts the story of her daredevil move to Paris in 2012, a city where Wani knew no one, not one word of the language, without a Plan A, B or C, purely on universal signs she received that lead her to the iconic City of Lights.
There, Wani discovered that when you take bold steps in life and business, let go of any false obligation that you have to remain who you were five minutes ago, you then step into who you were meant to be and life serves you immense rewards and dividends.
Along with speaking, Wani also consults for French companies and organizations in their humanitarian missions in Africa.
Fueled by an unquenchable thirst for inspiring others for aliveness, Wani serves as an example to those who say to hell with their fears, dare take the road less traveled, and live extraordinarily in life and business, while being a valuable contributor to this world.
Engaging. Entertaining. Action-driven. Powerful. Leadership influenced.
