Why is it so expensive? I will answer this just in case anyone is thinking it LOL. The short answer is it isn't expensive. Expensive is subjective and so one person's "expensive" is another persons "omg why is it so cheap". The offer will be out of budget for some people and that's OK. I will never encourage people to take out loans to work with me or manhandle their price objections. This offer isn't meant to be for everyone, it's meant to be for a select few who are in the right space in life to work with a coach in this way. I have other offers at different price points for different people. However, if you break the offer down into the amount included (daily support M-F for 6 months, two calls per month for 6 months, 2 goal setting calls, the full day with me at the beach etc...) the pricing works out below average for coaching. I try hard to sit at a price point that pays me well for my expertise (qualified and accredited coach with a msc in psychology) and experience (over 10 years in business and hundreds of clients) without charging an amount that feels unfair to the person investing. So all of that to say if you are thinking this it's OK, and if despite my answer you still think this, that's also OK. I only have a couple of spaces for this and so I'd be drowning if it was for everyone!!

What if I’m neurodivergent or introverted—will the Transformation Day totally exhaust me? OH I love this question actually. I do talk more about this on the actual page for Transformation Days but when you book there is an in depth questionnaire where you will design your own day which means that whether you are neurodivergent, introverted, just hate the outdoors, or have any physical disabilities, I cater the day to you! Plus I am an introvert myself and have worked with lots of neurodivergent people so I often adapt my coaching to fit whoever is in front of me.

Is the beach thing a gimmick? Will we actually work or is it more of a photo-op? Did I make my chatgpt this sassy? Did I bring this on myself!? The reason that the Transformation Days are at the beach is because I used to do them in cities (I would travel to the client's nearest city) and I found the hustle and bustle of people rushing around in suits, the often very grey co-working spaces, and sitting at a laptop all day so intense that I often felt like I needed a holiday afterwards and couldn't wait to get home to the beach, which made me think... why aren't I doing them AT the beach?! Working on your business doesn't have to take place indoors at a laptop and it doesn't have to feel super intense and stressful. The beach (and being outdoors in general) does so many good things for our mental health, helps us think clearly, makes us more creative and ultimately just creates the perfect mindset to be working on your business from. Plus there is lots of evidence on the benefits of outdoor coaching and so my aim was to combine the coaching of a VIP Day with the rest and relaxation of a retreat = a transformation day. (However, I'm happy to be your personal photographer for the day too if you want to get lots of content!) Also just to confirm, the day will be split between having lunch, working from laptops in a cafe, coaching as we walk etc (depending on how you design your day) so it'll be a good balance between practical getting shit done at laptops and lots of spaciousness too.

What if I want the support but can’t do the beach day? Can I get a discount or an alternative? Yes. If you can't get to Devon for a transformation day you will be offered one either at a different location (depending on where you live) or online if that isn't an option. A whole day online can be very intense so it'll likely be split into two half days.

How structured are the calls? What if I don’t know what I need each session? My coaching calls aren't structured by anything other than us. If there is something you wanted to revisit in a call then we will do that during the next call but other than that, there isn't a set plan as such. You don't need to worry about what you'll need during each session because that's my job as your coach to ask the right questions.

What kind of results have other people gotten? Like… really. I'm just going to quote something for this one: "it pushed me to my next level", "helped me realise my purpose", "helped my unpick how to achieve the thing I didn't even know I wanted", "confidence in myself and my ambitions", "a real transformation", "clear actionable steps to build the life I want", "I now know it's ok to run my business differently", "I see the potential for what my business can be", "brought business in line with what I want", "confidence, direction and purpose".

Is this for people making 6 figures already? What if my business is barely off the ground? You definitely don't need to be making 6 figures or anywhere near. As long as you can afford the investment, that's the only financial requirement (for example I don't want anyone going into debt to work with me!) I find 1:1 coaching often works best for the person who is at least 2 years into either running a business/being a creator BUT if you are brand new to business then I'm happy to chat about your individual circumstances. I know that often in those early days people are craving lots of how-to guidance and strategy support (pricing, offers, marketing) which isn't what I offer. I work with individuals to create work and lives that they truly love, find purpose in, and get fulfilment from. I help people avoid burnout and design a business that feel really unique to them. I do a lot of deep mindset work, diving into purpose, values, strengths assessments and all sorts of things, but not strategy which might make it a bad fit for someone right at the beginning of their journey.

What if I hate group calls and don’t feel confident enough to speak? This isn't the right offer for you if you don't want to be part of a group. If you want to work on your mindset, one of the other 1:1 offers would be a better fit. But if you are someone who wants to be part of a group but is quieter and not the most confident, that's totally OK, you are still welcome!

Will the other people be way ahead of me (and make me feel behind)? I would argue that there is no such thing as 'behind' in mindset work. We all go through similar things at different times and we don't ever perfect mindset work, it comes in cycles. While the experience of a brand new business owner and an agency owner of 10 years might be different, they are likely to be experiencing the same things but in different ways. Having said that, I feel like the *best* fit for this offer is the service provider who is at least 2 years into business and so has the foundations of a strategy and is able to really focus on the mindset work.

What if I’m too emotional or struggling mentally—will I feel out of place? If you are feeling exhausted and a little burnt out, you are likely to find that others in the group resonate with your experience - we've all been there! However, if you are struggling with depression, severe burnout or anything similar I would always recommend having a therapist first (this goes for all my offers) or speaking to your doctor if you need more immediate support. This offer is for mastermind coaching only and I will not be offering therapy.

What if I miss calls or can’t make one—do I still get something out of it? Life happens and so it's always possible you might miss a call, but there are 6 calls in total as well as a group Slack channel for conversations in between calls and an 'office hours' once a month where you can drop in and ask questions. Missing one call won't change how much you get from the mastermind but if you are going to miss 2+ then it might not be the right time as I want to make sure you feel part of the group.

How do I know this isn’t just another group where people don’t show up or the Slack goes dead after week 2? OK so anyone who has ran a group before knows that this is worst case scenario! When there is a group, the group is partly responsible for engaging and taking part. If no one in the group showed up for calls or talked in the chat there would be no mastermind and I would pull my hair out. BUT when joining a mastermind, this is for the person who wants to engage, show up and make connections and understands that I can't force people to do that. My role is to be the best facilitator and coach that I can be (which I promise to do) and your role is to be the best mastermind participant you can be, which includes responding to questions in the chat wherever you can. It's a team effort. But I will say that I've never had this happen before so the chances are super low. The reason I keep the groups small and why it's only 3 months is to ensure that momentum is kept up and that everyone gets the chance to connect with each other. I find the bigger the group and the longer the offer, the less the engagement and so the format of the mastermind has been created with this in mind.

What kinds of mindset stuff do you actually work on? Is it all “believe in yourself” stuff or deeper? Who hurt this chatgpt?! 🤣🤣 I have a psychology background and so everything I do is deeper than those typical pop psychology toxic positivity vibes. All exercises I use have been tried and tested in research and everything I do is grounded in psychological theory. Each call will have a theme to guide the conversation, with additional time at the end for general coaching. Themes include growth mindset & failure, motivation & purpose, resilience & grit, confidence, happiness and growth & identity.

What if I want 1:1 support too—is there an option for that? There will be one office day a month where you can ask me questions over Slack but if you want ongoing 1:1 support alongside the mastermind, just let me know and we can add that on at a discounted rate (or if I remember, I'll try and add it on as an option at checkout *makes mental note to do this*).
