Foundational Business Training & Mentoring

Foundational Business Training & MentoringFoundational Business Training & MentoringFoundational Business Training & Mentoring

for Start-Up Coaches & Freelance Professionals

There are 2 sides to being self-employed: your expertise (e.g. Coaching); and running a business. To make money from what you love, you need to bring the two together.

However, if you’ve never run a business before, you might be wondering where to start, what to do and how to start making money.


You need to learn practical business skills so you can get your business off the ground, market effectively and make sales. You also need someone to show you where to start and what to do, which is where I come in.


Through my training academy, business coaching and mentoring, we’ll help you develop the skills you need, so you can get your business off the ground and make money doing what you love.

Kind words from my clients & colleagues

Tracey Redwood, Grief Coach, The Grief Whisperer

Claire Burgess, Donna’s Tutor at University of Cambridge

Tracey Redwood, Grief Coach, The Grief Whisperer

"Donna appeared in my timeline just as I was about to give up on my grief coaching business. Having no corporate background she clarified the foundations of my business with me and made things easier to understand and was very patient with me while I got all my ducks in a row. I am now thinking like a business woman and feel more confident about the future thanks to her hard work and enthusiasm for my dream x Thank you Donna"​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Wen Falana, Coaching Rainbows

Claire Burgess, Donna’s Tutor at University of Cambridge

Tracey Redwood, Grief Coach, The Grief Whisperer

"Whilst it’s still early days, I have already had remarkable learning experiences. For example, during the first 2 learning modules, I have already discovered (more) different perspectives and gained new insights for helping me more clearly define my vision and create better goals than before for my business. Every learning module, workbook task, resource and discussion convinces me further that  by choosing the  Business 101 pathway, I’m  investing in the success of my business and my future."

"I had the pleasure of being Donna’s tutor while she was undertaking her coaching qualification. I can say without reservation that she is an amazing coach, her sessions that I observed showed insight and an incredible ability to connect with others and make them feel heard. She is empowering and knows just the right way to help people move towards success in her goals. Coupled with her business experience and acumen, this puts her in a very rare position of being able to occupy both a coaching and mentoring space to help others move forward in their own businesses. I can recommend her with confidence and would say that investing in her time and expertise would be money well spent."

Ways I can help you

Business Skills can be learnt, just like anything else

So, you’ve completed your training to become an expert in your field. Now you’re wondering...


  • Where do I start when it comes to setting up my new business?
  • How do I market myself?
  • How do I grow my audience?
  • How do I generate leads and get clients?
  • How do I sell when I hate selling?


I wholeheartedly believe its possible to learn all of this, especially with the right support and guidance from someone who’s been there, overcome the same obstacles and successfully implemented a system that will allow you to fast track an otherwise lengthy and costly process.


I know there's a lot to take onboard when you start a business. All around me I see coaches full of knowledge, but struggling to get going, unsure of the processes, scared of selling, and not being effective in their marketing. 


If this is you, you don't have to guess or struggle because I've devised solutions just for you. 


I’ll take you through a structured pathway, so you do things, one at a time, in the right order. It's intentionally fully guided and supported, taking away the guesswork. 


There's never been a better time to build your business. The world needs you and what you have to offer. Having spent time and money on your training up to now, its time to take that next step and get confident with all things business. 


So, if you’re unsure where to start and want to make a plan, book a free, no obligation call today and let’s hit the ground running.
