Coaching for rebellious business owners

Rule-breaking business strategies and beliefs building to help you build a successful and sustainable business without burning out

LET’S BUILD A BLOODY GREAT LIFE

Hey business owner, does this sound familiar?

Your business is growing, flying, but it’s dragging you along with it. When you’re really honest with yourself it’s dragging you down the yellow brick road to burnout.

You’re in that messy middle of growth. Business is mushrooming, but you’re working way more than you really want to be.

It’s becoming all consuming – is that really what you want for yourself??

I didn’t think so.

You want a bloody great life, right?

You want to be excited by work, not bogged down by it. You want the time and energy to enjoy the money the business is bringing in.

You care about shiz and wanna do what’s right for others, but it’s gotta be right for you too.

We don’t sacrifice ourselves on the altar of caring around here, pals.

I see you

Step one

Get really honest with yourself, pal

I can coach you to set your business strategy and price your services

First off, we’ll get really honest about whether the life you’re living right now is what you want.

Then we’ll:

✨Set a new business strategy to get you out of the messy middle of growth and into the soaring stage

✨Build some rock solid beliefs so you KNOW what you want is more than possible

✨Check up on the ole prices (underpricing is NOT gonna help you work less and live happier)

What people say about being coached by me

I enlisted the help of Jo for a few reason: I was finding it challenging to reach my ideal clients for my social media agency. I wanted to address my work life balance, and better prioritise my work as I went through a period of rapid growth. My 1:1 sessions with Jo give me SO much food for thought and I come away with so much clarity. I feel like I am making so much more progress in my business than if I was going to figure this all out on my own.

Jo's inimitable approach has helped me raise my prices, set boundaries, and ultimately run a better business for both me and my clients.

You'll learn so much about yourself in ways you could never imagine. You'll also have Jo as your cheerleader the whole way through, celebrating your wins and nudging you to challenge your own negative thoughts.

I don’t believe you want to work this much. You don’t have to.

I can coach you to set boundaries to stop burnout

To maintain growth and keep scaling, you don’t have to keep working the way you are now.

To make sure you’re ONLY working how much you honestly, actually want to, we’ll:

✨Figure out what your business boundaries need to be in this phase

✨Work out how you to easily communicate them with your clients, your team, suppliers and collaborators

✨Get real about what you need to delegate so you can focus on what you really enjoy and what really makes a difference

Step two

What other business owners say about working with me

I have a sense of clarity now. I know that I can do it my way and that it works. And that I will no longer allow others to unwittingly put me within their boundaries.

I have so much more clarity on what matters to me and a new sense of self-respect. I have made a lot of impactful changes and dramatically reduced the levels of stress and overwhelm.

If you are a solo business owner and find it all a bit overwhelming sometimes, I would definitely recommend Jo. She is a breath of fresh air! Being coached by her is confronting, but in the best possible way!

The other steps

Success doesn’t have to be a result of back breaking work

I can coach you through a TON of other business stuff

It’s a well worn cliche for a reason – it’s a rollercoaster. You’re on Oblivion (that’s a rollercoaster, right?)

You’re bloody doing it, it’s exciting, but ruddy heck it’s A LOT. I’m here to walk alongside you in all of the a-lot-ness.

From kicking non-ideal clients to the kerb (check out my advice on that here); to figuring out if you need a new VA; to making sure you’re set up to have that bloody great holiday and not take your laptop to the pool.

✨Through your everyday actions, we’ll build a business and life that’s JOYFUL, successful and sustainable ✨

What my clients say about being coached by me

Jo does this incredible balancing act of being generous and warm, while knowing when to reign in your overcomplicating and overthinking. Of helping you see everything's possible and also helping you make a realistic plan.

Jo is an opening, welcoming force that will change your business, whether you like it or not. She'll just keep going until you make that change you need to make and I'm eternally grateful for her.

Jo has changed my business. Our family life is different and better. We’re happier, our team is happier. She’s changed my life. She’s changed my husband’s life.

NOT YOUR AVERAGE BUSINESS COACH

Hi, I'm Jo Hooper

A patriarchy butt-kicking; abelism dismantling; capitalism bitch slapping rebellious business coach.

I live an unconventional life – I don’t own a home and live in my best friend’s house in rural West Wales.

I don’t want kids, have been happily living in sin with my boyfriend for 12 years.

I don’t want to work really hard and I don’t believe we have to.

I am STUBBORN. Don’t believe me? My client Cara said:

“Jo is an opening, welcoming force that will change your business, whether you like it or not. She’ll just keep going until you make that change you need to make.”

Thanks Cara 🤭

Why me

Bye bullshiz

We don’t play by anyone’s rules but our own

The bullshiz business rules you can break

Around here you get rule-breaking business advice. The rules that Capitalism, the patriarchy, ableism, white supremacism and all the systems of oppression want us to live by.

Rules like:
💩 Women should be nurturing and kind (to everyone but themselves)
💩 Productivity is THE goal we should strive for (no thanks Capitalism. Happiness, anyone?!)
💩 Hard work is noble, easy work is shameful (which capitalist genius came up with that one?!)
💩 Don’t get too big for your boots (my boots grow as I do, thanking you)
💩 If you’re different, you don’t fit (difference is my JAM pal!)
💩 All work is good work (NAH. Not if it drains you chum)

These bullshiz rules leave us over working, under-valuing ourselves and unhappy. As Glennon Doyle says, “The end goal of any system of oppression is to get the oppressed to oppress themselves.” That’s exactly what these rules do.

We do not do that around here pal.

No more over-working for you my friend
