Meet Dharmi Shah | Diversified Multi Industry Entrepreneur

We had the good fortune of connecting with Dharmi Shah and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Dharmi, let’s talk legacy – what do you want yours to be?
I want my legacy to be that of an entrepreneur with a heart, dedicated to creating a positive impact and meaningful experiences for everyone I encounter. I hope to be remembered as someone who prioritized crafting memorable experiences for others, helping them build lasting memories and providing a safe space for growth and flourishing. Whether through my business ventures or in personal relationships, my goal is always to bring positivity into the lives of those around me.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Running a business is no easy task! My entrepreneurial journey began as a wedding and event planner with a business I named Evenings of Elegance, and I later expanded into corporate events and fundraisers. From there, I developed The Corporate Experience, where I started working on events and activations in the sports arena and have now expanded into a relationship and experiential marketing firm focused on building brand experiences, strong partnerships, and client relations.

Through it all, I felt a deep desire to support those going through tough times, which led me to create Refresh & Revitalize, a life coaching platform designed to offer clarity and self-confidence, with a special focus on family planning and infertility challenges.

Looking ahead, I aspire to own a fantastic restaurant and bar, and I’m currently working on finishing my cookbook!

The challenges I faced didn’t hold me back—I pushed through, constantly seeking new ways to grow both personally and professionally.

The key lessons I’ve learned: Always do your best. Even if things don’t work out as expected, success lies in knowing you gave it your all. The biggest lesson has been learning to trust myself and remind myself, “You’ve got this!”

I want to inspire others to know that adversity builds resilience and strength. Keep moving forward and never let challenges defeat you!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I’m passionate about food and drinks and truly believe that the best memories and relationships are made around the table! My ideal week would be all about creating unforgettable experiences.

Here’s what it would include:

Visits to wineries and breweries
Plenty of dining adventures
Cooking for my guests
Charcuterie & Grazing Boards
Ice cream
A walk with my Dog, Brody
Golf or Top Golf
Cooking classes
Music

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My family and friends have always been an incredible source of support, especially my parents. Initially, they were unsure about my decision to enter the wedding and event industry at just 21, but over time, they embraced the idea of me being an entrepreneur rather than the girl behind a desk. Today, they’re my biggest supporters. I also owe a lot to the universe for hearing my wishes and guiding me through tough times and adversity, always giving me the strength to keep going, no matter how many times I stumbled.
