Sharnese Johnson, also known as Coach SJ, is a multi-million-dollar transportation business owner, entrepreneur, and business coach dedicated to helping others turn their ideas into income.

As the CEO of Xtra Care Transportation, LLC, Sharnese built a successful passenger transportation company specializing in student transportation, non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT), and government contracts across multiple states. Her journey didn’t start with a perfect plan—it started with determination, faith, and a desire to create a better life for herself and her daughter.

After years in corporate America, where she worked her way up to a supervisory role but still felt unfulfilled and financially stuck, Sharnese made the decision to pursue entrepreneurship. She began with freelance elderly transportation and rideshare, which ultimately led to the creation of Xtra Care Transportation.

Through persistence, hands-on experience, and strategic growth, she scaled her business
into a multi-million-dollar company.

Today, as the founder of the Coach SJ Business Readiness Institute, she helps aspiring and existing entrepreneurs start, structure, and scale profitable businesses. From business setup to securing contracts and generating consistent revenue, her approach is focused on execution, not just information.

She is also the founder of Heels Driven, a community created to empower women to succeed
in the transportation and logistics industry.
