RHONY: What Is Bershan Shaw's Net Worth And How Did She Get Rich?

The Big Apple is about to get a little bigger! The Real Housewives of New York are welcoming two new women to the series: Eboni K. Williams and Bershan Shaw. 

The cast shakeup was announced following season 12 newcomer Leah McSweeney's call for RHONY to truly reflect New York City. "I hope that there's not only diversity of race, but an even deeper diversity of where someone lives or what their interests are," McSweeney told Page Six in August 2020. "I hope that there's just more diversity all across the board because New Yorkers are not a monolith, obviously." 

While rumors were circulating of Bershan being cast back in September 2020, it wasn't until March 3, 2021, that both she and Bravo confirmed the news. "It's exciting and invigorating, and the women on the show are truly amazing with great stories," Shaw wrote on Instagram. "We are funny, crazy, interesting, shocking, dope, diverse and warriors. Stay tuned!" 

So who is businesswoman Bershan Shaw, and how did she make her fortune? Keep scrolling to find out!

Real Housewives of New York star Bershan Shaw is a multifaceted woman. Per The Daily Dish, Bershan is "a business coach, motivational speaker, author, and host of the podcast Buckle Up with Bershan." Her personal website boasts that Shaw is "America's #1 Business Coach," and she even became a member of the 2019 Forbes Coaches Council. 

Bershan lists keynote speaking as a top source of income. Her "Warrior Method" technique has been revealed to audiences of 20,000+ people. Bershan Shaw also offers "Transformative Coaching" for individual sessions. She even formerly had her own reality series Love in the City on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN), chronicling her new lease on life after surviving breast cancer, per Showbiz Cheat Sheet. Bershan also regularly had a guest spot on ABC 7's Good Morning Washington. Meanwhile, Shaw's current Buckle Up podcast welcomes film producers, fashion designers, and entrepreneurs to spill their secrets to success. 

After all of her business ventures, Bershan is estimated to be worth $5 million. While that doesn't put Bershan amongst the richest Housewives, it's clear she's self-made and knows how to cash in on her talents!
