COACHING FOR MUM FOUNDERS

Build a business that fits the season you are in.

One-to-one coaching for mum founders in London. Weekly sessions, online, baby welcome.

£200 a month. Published, because you should not have to book a call to find out what something costs.

THE HONEST BIT

You did not start this to be busier.

You are the strategist, the marketer, the admin and the finance department.

You are doing all of it in fragments, after bedtime, during a nap that ended early.

And the advice out there assumes a working day you do not have.

THE METHOD

Most advice starts with what you should do. This starts with what you can actually hold.

  • 01

    Capacity

    The hours genuinely available to you.

  • 02

    Foundations

    Your offer, your pricing, solid or hope.

  • 03

    Visibility

    Being found without living online.

  • 04

    Sales

    Interest into income, without performing.

  • 05

    Systems and AI

    This is where the hours come back.

  • 06

    Money

    What you are actually left with.

Six pillars, scored one to ten. Then four phases: diagnose, decide, build, review.

ABOUT

Hey, I’m Shakila

I started a business when my daughter was four months old. No nursery, no childcare, no plan. Just a gap I could see clearly because I had fallen into it myself.

Before that I spent five years in sales and partnerships, two of them in senior commercial roles at Immediate Media, working on titles like BBC Good Food and Radio Times.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF

  • You are building in fragments and the advice you find assumes a working day you do not have.
  • You want visibility, partnerships or your time back, and you need someone to guide you.
  • You do not really understand AI and you are not sure you want to.
  • You want honest accountability from someone in the same season.

IN HER WORDS

I wouldn't have as much confidence, and I don't think the results would have come as quickly.

Now we're eight months in. I have structure, automation, and brands sending me products for my goodie bags.

That structure and efficiency meant I found the right supplier within three weeks.

We never accepted the first price, and ended up eight percent lower with custom gift bags thrown in.

I finally have someone I can bounce ideas off.

I know exactly what our strategy is, so I follow it. If something doesn't work, we rethink it.
