In 2016, Niyia Whitsett reached a conclusion that still shapes her work: knowing what to do doesn’t always mean knowing how to live it. Self Approved Systems grew from that gap. It provides health education, consultations, organizational training, program development, and practical products for people who want to understand their options and use them.
Niyia is a Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses alumna, a published author, and a holistic practitioner since 2016.
