When most women set out to build a six-figure business, they start by asking the wrong question:
“What strategy should I follow?”

They start piecing together other people’s blueprints.
They join programs built around one specific business model.
They assume the secret is in the funnel, the launch, or the niche.

Here’s the truth: There isn’t one strategy that works.
There isn’t one path to 10k months.
And if you’re following someone else’s map, you’re probably building a business you’ll want to burn down later.

If you want to build a business that actually fits your life, and gets you to six figures, you need to flip the entire model on its head.

It doesn’t start with the offer.
It doesn’t start with the funnel.
It starts with your life.

Start With the Life You Want

The biggest mistake I see?
Smart, ambitious women forcing themselves into a business model that looks successful, but doesn’t actually feel good to them.

Ask yourself:

  • How many calls per week do I want to take?
  • What kind of relationship do I want with my clients?
  • Do I want deep, private support or something scalable with less touch?
  • How do I want to spend my day-to-day?

That’s how you build an aligned business model, one that supports your energy, your lifestyle, and your values.
From there, you can reverse-engineer your offer suite and strategy.
Because your business should serve your life. Not the other way around.

Choose a Strategy That Matches Your Model

This is where most people fall off.
They choose a strategy that doesn’t match the model they want.

If you want low-touch, high-scale?
You might need evergreen funnels, paid ads, and digital products.

If you want high-touch connection and transformation?
You might lean toward high-ticket 1:1, group coaching, or intensives.

There’s no “right” answer here.
But you need a strategy that fits the business you actually want—not what’s trending on Instagram.

Mindset, Energetics & Embodiment: The Real Work

Once your business model and strategy are clear, here’s the missing piece:
Who you are when you execute matters more than what you’re executing.

  • Mindset is about identity. You need to believe you’re the kind of woman who can build a six-figure business, or you’ll unconsciously self-sabotage.
  • Energetics is the frequency behind your actions. It’s what your audience feels from you, and it’s why two people can post the same content but only one gets sales.
  • Embodiment is about congruence. Are you walking your talk behind the scenes? Or are you saying one thing online while panicking privately?

A solid business strategy for women needs to include all three: strategy, mindset, and embodiment.
That’s what builds sustainable growth. That’s what gets you long-term results.

Build Your Business Like a CEO

You don’t need another formula.
You don’t need another offer hack or niche script.

You need to own your power, choose your path, and stop trying to copy people who don’t live or work like you.
The only six-figure business worth building is the one that feels like yours.

I help ambitious women build six and multi-six-figure businesses that are bold, profitable, and fully aligned with who they are,  without following cookie-cutter strategies or burning out trying to do it all.

I’ve built three multi-six-figure businesses from scratch, and I’ve helped hundreds of women refine their offers, master their messaging, step into their power with positioning that actually gets them paid.

I don’t teach one way to grow your business online. I help you find YOUR way. The way that matches your energy, your vision, and your big goals. I know you are building an empire, not a cute little side business. 

As a mom of a 6 years old boy, living on a tiny 7km² island in Asia, running a business I love and working just four days a week, I know that you don’t have to choose between ambition and freedom. You get to have both.

Ready to stop doing business like everyone else and finally become the one people buy from because your content and offers are fire?! Let’s go!!
