Hiya, I'm Jo
And I know what it's like to love your work but hate the thought of promoting it
If you’re lost in a confusing sea of WAY TOO MANY options for building your business, I’ve got you.
Believe me, I get it – I’ve been there.
I’m the coach you come to when you’ve grown tired of the bro marketers and their obsessions over the size of their funnels and how early they get up in the morning.



I’m not your usual business coach
It felt like there wasn’t really a place for a nerdy, middle aged, sweary scatterbrains like me to ‘make it’ in the coaching industry.
- I’m not shiny and I most certainly do not have it all together (I’m suspicious of people who say they DO have it all together)
- I’ve never worn a wide brimmed boho hat
- I think unicorns are fine…if you’re 7
- I dislike the term ‘boss babe’ with the fire of a 1000 suns
- I come out in hives at the thought of getting out of bed before 8am (so no, not a big ‘miracle morning’ fan)
- I believe in critical thinking and magic in equal measure

I can help you get the word out about your work, own your message, your gifts and the impact you want to have – so that you get to be YOUR version of success, in your own way. AND make great money along the way.
I fully believe that we need a new way of doing business – one that allows us to create companies that are financially, emotionally and energetically sustainable. So that your business can be a gorgeous extension of yourself.
I also believe that when we find our perfect way of expressing ourselves in the world, we thrive – as does our business.

Just So's You Know...
- I was diagnosed as Autistic in 2021 and feel like this knowledge has made many pieces of my life fall into place. Yay – to finally realise I’m not broken but living with a quirky, occasionally tricksy brain.
- I have many pairs of yellow shoes (they go with a surprising amount of outfits)
- I love, in no particular order: tattoos, deep conversation (I find small talk impossibly hard to maintain), textile crafts – currently I’m very into punch needle embroidery and making my own clothes (some of which have even proved wearable), and singing (amongst other things.)
- I dislike: bigotry, whataboutism, porridge, bullies, bad faith arguments, squeaky noises, uncomfortable clothing, and baked beans.
- I prefer listening to podcasts and audiobooks to reading
- I think Jesus Christ Superstar the musical is an underrated classic.
The more ‘formal’ stuff (things I put on my LinkedIn Profile)

But I’ve also worked with many no less wonderful smaller ventures, micro businesses and SME’s .

I’ve a Masters Degree is in Coaching and Organizational Development and I’m an NLP Master Practitioner, MBTI qualified professional certified Emotional Intelligence EQi 2.0 consultant.
I’ve been coaching for almost 20 years now – clocking up over 1250 hours of coaching experience. Basically, I carefully tread that line between being passionate and a tiny bit obsessive about what I do (obsession often wins).
I run accredited coach training programs and coach people from all over the world via the power of the internet.
