When you’re a creative woman running your own business, there’s always something to think through, decide or navigate.
The Thread gives you a trusted sounding board, someone who understands the challenges of working for yourself and can help you make decisions, develop your ideas and move forward with greater confidence.
Running your own business means making a lot of decisions, and doing a lot of different tasks, often without anyone to talk them through with. You might be weighing up a new opportunity, wondering what to focus on next, struggling with your confidence or simply feeling a bit stuck and lacking in direction.
The Thread gives you somewhere to bring all of that. It offers a regular opportunity to step away from the day-to-day, get things into perspective and work out what you want to do next, all in the company of an experienced coach and small creative business owner.
You don’t need to arrive to each session with a big problem or a carefully prepared agenda. We work with whatever feels most useful to you at the time.
Not everyone needs or wants an intensive coaching programme. Sometimes what makes the biggest difference is knowing there’s someone you can turn to when you need support and to have a regular touchpoint in the month to reflect and move forwards.
The Thread combines a monthly coaching session with regular opportunities to check in between sessions. It’s a way to maintain momentum, build confidence in your decisions and keep your business moving in a direction that feels right for you.
And because we’ll be working together over time, I’ll get to know you, your business, your ambitions and the things that tend to get in your way.
45 minutes on Zoom, dedicated entirely to you and whatever you want to explore. We’ll use the time to reflect, work through challenges, develop ideas, plan your next steps. Before the session, you fill in a quick questionnaire so we can make the best use of the time together.
Access to me during two weekly office-hour sessions, Mondays 2.30-4pm and Thursdays from 9.30-11am (UK time). You can message or voice note to share a question, talk through an idea, get a fresh perspective or ask for support. You can message me any time but I will answer in those slots.
Rather than having a fixed number of sessions and then saying goodbye, The Thread gives you an ongoing coaching relationship that can evolve as your business does. It offers an ongoing way to have me in your corner; someone who is not only a trained and ICF accredited coach but who has 30+ years of marketing and communications experience and 20+ years of running small creative businesses.
The Thread might be just what you’re looking for if you’re someone who:
It’s also a natural next step if we’ve already worked together and you’d like to continue having that support as you put what you’ve learned and planned into practice.
