A group coaching program for small business owners who want ongoing support while they share and promote their work with the world.
Your Journey Is Unique
What you have to offer, the way you work, how you choose to promote your business, how often you show up, how you show up, where you show up.
There is no “one size fits all” when it comes to sharing your work with the world.
Marketing and how you’ll grow your business is a personal path.
You have to find the ways that work.. for you.
Base Camp is a place for you to come back to – again and again – to get the support you need, when you need it.
It is a safe place to check in, get encouragement, feedback, advice, validation and community care.
WELCOME TO BASE CAMP
Here’s what this program is about….
Primarily it’s about support.
Growing a business is hard. It is so easy to fall pray to all the “should” and “could” and “ought-to’s” that marketing experts tell you that you MUST do to grow your business. I often talk to people who feel overwhelmed, confused and unsure about the steps they are taking.
We all so badly want to “get it right,” – whatever that means. As if there is a magic bullet that will suddenly make us successful.
There is no formula.
There is no “do this” path to success.
There is no ride or die way to go about things.
There is YOUR way. And figuring out your own unique path can be tricky.
Most of the people I work with are on the introverted side of things. We are quieter, more thoughtful, cautious about the steps we take. We don’t want to be loud and crazy visible. But, we do have good things to offer and we want to share our work with people – but we want to do so in ways that feel good – for us.
So how do you figure out your way?
With support.
These are the values and guideposts that we focus on inside of of Base Camp, our basis of support:
- Creating sustainable business practices so you don’t get burnt out
- Being true to your own unique voice
- Working with integrity and alignment
- Forget about perfection
- Being kind to ourselves
- Honoring our limits and our own pace
- Tending to what matters – focussing our attention on what we are creating
- UN-Branding and celebrating our own awesomeness
- Growing and learning as we go
Think of Base Camp like you are climbing a mountain, you are building something, creating something – it is YOUR path. Along the way of your journey, it helps to pause and take a break, to catch your breath. It is supportive – and super smart – to take a moment to intentionally reflect, check in, re-group, gather supplies, prepare, ask for help, etc…
You don’t have to journey alone.
Base Camp is a nurturing, supportive space for you to stop in, get what you need, when you need it, then launch back out onto your journey, creating your business dreams with fresh perspective, motivation and clarity.

Join as many or as few calls as works for you and your schedule.
You can see the general schedule listed below.
A SMALL GROUP
I have organized things to keep the number of people on calls smaller.
I will add additional calls and adjust the schedule as needed to keep it this way.
Having less people on calls means you can be better supported, while still learning and engaging with community.
COACHING
One of the weekly calls will be an open coaching session. You can bring anything you want support with to the call. Planning, clarity, visioning work, mapping out a launch, if you are feeling stuck, need feedback, debriefing your efforts, etc.
These are the calls to come to when you need clarity, encouragement and motivation about whatever is next for your business.
WORKSHOPS
The other weekly call will be a topic focused workshop so we can go deeper about the things that help build business.
Topics we explore: business visioning and clarity, systems and technology – finding the right solutions FOR YOU, marketing and promoting your work, selling and graphic design, writing good copy, and sustainable business practices.
“Base camp has been an absolute game changer for me in my business. Meeting every week has been the support I needed to move past internal and external blocks.”
