Founding requires inner + outer fuel...

Female founders supporting peer to peer coaching Anna B Sexton runs 1-2-1 coaching + social entrepreneurship training facilitation programmes Liverpool London UK North West New York

Starting a new business or growing an existing one can be exhausting if you don't take time to pause, reflect, and recharge. In business, we focus on goals, daily tasks, and activities that generate income.

However, some days it feels like we're stuck in a 9-to-5 job, which is what we wanted to escape when we first started.

What if entrepreneurs we need to incorporate new, non-negotiable key daily modes of committed practices?

  • RPA [Rest producing activities] *

What is the hustle culture is just more of the same toxic BS we thought we would be going beyond in the teams and cultures we dreamt we’d create when we got into building our business dreams?

Creative female leaders Liverpool Anna B Sexton start up coach image by Laura Yates Emma Bush Jane Waf Laura tech for good

We work collaboratively to seek mutually supportive solution-focused outcomes that work with whole people who are tackling thorny problems in the creative, digital, ed tech, health tech, travel tech, food security and community cohesion.

Many are juggling different ‘roles’ within their ventures alongside balancing their personal lives as learners, earners, carers, parents, and guardians.

Each are often living with experiences of mental and physical health in communities most hit by local and wider geopolitical upheaval and under investment. We work holistically, grounded in psychology, neuroscience, play work, creative thinking and common sense coaching approaches.
