Which was great! Until you realised that meant holding yourself accountable. And being your own colleague. And having only "me, myself and I" to bounce ideas off of.
Now, you're stuck in an awkward midpoint of knowing where you want your business to be, but not actually knowing how to get to that point. You miss having other creatives around to talk through your ideas or give you sparks of motivation.
Dare we say it: sometimes you even miss having a boss to hold you accountable to getting things done on a deadline.
You probably started your business so you could work on your own terms.
But imagine if you could start each month knowing:
That support & accountability you're looking for are both out there. You just need to know where to find them.
Week 2
Week 4
The final week of the month is all about wrapping things up: checking in with your business finances, prepping your workload for the month ahead and starting to think about your SMART goal for the following month. By this point, you've made great progress on your goal for the month and you're feeling excited and ready to continue growing upwards!
Set a SMART goal based on the monthly theme and share it with the group. Talk through any roadblocks or hesitations you've got, so you can leave the call feeling confident and motivated. Spend the rest of Week 1 prepping your SMART goal and getting ready for our action-taking week.
Last week you started the push to achieving your monthly SMART goal. This week is all about riding that wave and continuing with the action. If something's come up (a mindset block, a limiting belief, an external factor) that's stopping you from making progress, share it with the group for a boost of support and motivation.
Week 3
Week 4
Your action-taking week! Start implementing the steps you mapped out in Week 1 with plenty of accountability and support in our private community. This is the freelance-equivalent of coming out of an office meeting feeling seriously fired up. Except you're doing it from the comfort of your house/coworking space/favourite cafe!
Week 1
Updated your website? Posted on Linkedin for the first time? About to send a scary pitch? Post it in the group and we'll give you feedback!
Previous calls have included women from the UK, US, Europe, South Africa, India, South America and more! Make URL and IRL creative friends.
Meet other global female business owners in the creative world. Perfect for networking, making new friends and learning from each other.
A new training each month from myself or another female entrepreneur to fit the monthly theme. So you can knowledgeably tackle each goal.
One week for setting and prepping the goal. A second Get It Done week with regular check-ins to see how you're doing. A third week for final touches.
Share your goal for the month with the group, break down your SMART steps to achieve it and be held accountable with an update the following month!
Tayla Blaire, travel & food writer
"You realise just how much of what you're going through is a shared, common experience, and having these ladies rooting for you (and rooting for them) was easily the most valuable addition."
Emilie Tveitan, copywriter
"With a diverse group of women, there was always someone who could answer your question based on different backgrounds and experiences, and I think this was the most valuable for me."
Think of Momentum Magic as a mix of laser coaching, networking and accountability all rolled into one. As well as our monthly call, you'll have access to our vault of trainings and our private community, where you're free to post daily or get involved with our free Get It Done challenges.
You can join and leave Momentum Magic whenever you fancy, month by month. If you need to scale back on finances for a while but want to rejoin in the future, you're always welcome back.
Our monthly calls will take place on the first Tuesday of each month at 12pm Eastern Time. They will all be recorded so, even if you can't attend live, you can watch the replay.
