Clarify your vision & understand what you need for health, happiness and work you love.

Before the "how "comes the "what" and the "why."  Most people jump straight into the how-to part of business creation.

How do I market my thing? How do I create a website? How do I use advertising? How do I .....

It's easy to get swept up in other peoples visions, approaches and techniques for success, but at the end of the day, your success is defined by you and to define what success means for you,  you must get real with yourself.  Because knowing yourself and what you need is essential for you to set goals that will bring you happiness and success.  It's time to discover what's important to you because what works for others will not necessarily work for you.

It's easy to get overwhelmed or feel lost as you grow your business

You change, technology changes and you learn with every day you spend with your business.  Things don't always feel clear but if you can't move forward because you feel stuck, a coach can help get you where you need to go.

We change and our work changes and what we need, month to month and year to year changes too.

I want to empower you to stay nimble and honest and real for yourself. Questions are good: Is this still working for me, am I happy, what's working for me and what isn't, what do I need?

Seize inspiration but invite inquiry and embrace your unique needs, limits, personality, skills, likes and dislikes. Life works for the real you and when that's a bit foggy, life can get confusing.

If you're not sure of your next steps for you & your business right now - let's talk.

You and I know overthinking is a thing and perfectionism in business can be a battle, and that imposter syndrome is a creeper always lurking in the corner...

This stuff is for real. And Google can't help you out.

Working with a coach who is skilled at asking the right questions to help you know what you need, want and can do today to reach your goals is only part of what this is.

There's the huge techy piece of online business and let's be honest; today every business has to be online.

So there's that.

Let's not forget the omnipresent and ongoing blobbiness of ever-changing techy-bits, "must-have" tools, website advice, email marketing, SEO, social media, management and business growth.

Creating and growing your own business is a journey of personal development as much as it is an opportunity for freedom, alignment and joy.

But feeling stuck sucks. You're so full of ideas, desires and goals.

And you know what?

I've never met an entrepreneur who hasn't got up close and personal with some sort of struggle - often. It's the mud before the lotus and we actually need it. When it happens it means we're in the game as Brene Brown says. It's a good thing but you don't have to stay stuck.

If you want to fly before you know where you are going and if you want to skip ahead before you have solid foundations for work that will give you what we need.

I get it.

We think the exciting stuff lies ahead, but the real magic is here, right now for us to learn from and use to create our happy, healthy futures.

Work with me to find your right next steps, opportunities you can seize right now and business solutions that work with who you are today.

So you can fly now.

I'll help move you forward towards your business (and life) goals in a way that feels easy and supportive. And I've got all the webby-techy magic to move through any tech fears. I can show you how to make tech your business ally.

 

If you are a self-made person (freelancer or entrepreneur) you owe it to yourself and your business to invest in a process that will give you the objectivity and inspiration you simply don't have working on your own. And I say that as someone with ten years of marketing experience under my belt, who quite arrogantly assumed I could handle it alone. It's a no-brainer to work with Val! Cate Hogan catehogan.com

It's time for clarity and lots of "Ah-Ha" moments!

I'm going to take you on a path of self-discovery and strategic action steps so you can clearly define the next steps that will give you want and what you need. Bring me your business goals and challenges and together we will find what works for you and you will take action right away to reach goals and get what you need.

I might help you define or clarify your business idea, hammer out your niche, ideal clients and start defining your initial offering. Or we might talk about what isn't working right now in your business and find what you need today to make it all better.  Best of all, you'll finally find some clarity and feel inspired. You'll understand what will work and what won't for you in business and this will leave you empowered.

I was attracted to Val's ability to understand other people 's business and vision and help to make it happen as if it was her own.. I had tons of ideas..

Val broadened my perspective. I loved her professional approach to simple fun ideas and way of turning them into a business.  I was able to see where I wanted to go but unable to start. I was completely overwhelmed. Now my ideas are directed towards a goal, I am taking action and can see how I can make money from them.
