MEET THE FOUNDER
Hey, I'm Holly!
I'm a business strategist who loves a good plan and flow chart and is crazy passionate about teaching women like you how to build your dream job and scale to 6-figures and beyond without sacrificing your weekends or priorities.
I believe strongly that you can create a routine you love and with the right strategy, product suite (what you are actually selling) and simple systems to create a lifestyle that works and a business that scales without burnout. There is a difference between time management and time freedom. Let's work on finding freedom.
After 22 years in corporate strategy work for Fortune 500 companies, I ditched the office to build a business with my husband full-time. (Oh and we did it in less than 2 years, during the pandemic with twins!)
You can usually find me chatting biz strategy on my podcast “Crush the Rush”, raising our girls in Columbus, Ohio, and probably binging Real Housewives or planning our next vacation!

Weekly Pep Talks with Holly
Every Friday, join me in a quick 15-minute pep talk to end your week strong. Recorded in "almost" real-time we bring relevant and timely questions and issues to the table and walk you through how to solve them. Plus, I take you behind the scenes on how we are growing and scaling our business, sharing lessons learned, and even interviewing my husband (in the he said / she said episodes) a time or two!
