Well, you know there are many, many people who end up in business because they've got something they want to contribute to the world, but there's no job description that let's them do that.

So they end up in business for themselves, wanting to contribute to the world...

... and the 'business' thing drives them crazy. It feels alien, separate, challenging- keeps them from engaging with what they love.

I help those people connect with the spiritual and PRACTICAL essence of business, so that it doesn't feel alien, so that they can see the link between their heart, the sacred, what they do, and can still be profitable and support themselves and their families.

I especially love marketing, and business strategy.

Tenderize business. Yup. Business doesn't have to be 'hard-edged' to work. It does need to be practical and grounded, but it can also be beautiful, sacred and spiritual.

Profits. and Heart.

Strategic partners- people who have noncompeting businesses, but similar audiences to us, to brainstorm strategic partner marketing ideas.

We work with small business owners who want to make a difference in the world, and who need to make a profit. Certain niches we're focusing on this year are holistic practitioners, like massage therapists, naturapaths, and others. But, we're open to any submarkets ideas at all.
