Hey there. I am slowly but surely building my coaching practice from the ground up, but in the meantime, I'm looking for a source of stable income so that I can build this business from my heart instead of trying to make something happen right away so that I can pay my bills on time.

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for part-time/contract opportunities that would be a good fit for someone who loves going deep with people one-on-one and helping them experience more peace and joy in their lives.

My primary work experience has been in my own coaching practice and in my former job doing clinical intakes for a virtual mental health company. I have a passion for serving LGBTQ + people and highly-sensitive people, and I'm really good at noticing where people are getting in their own way, and helping them discover new ways to enjoy more ease and flow in their work and in their life. 

Please let me know if you have any ideas for roles that might be worth exploring.

Hello Everyone!! 😊

It's an absolute delight being here with all of you!! 🙏

I'm Mary, & I work with highly sensitive people (HSPs) as a counselor/mentor. Thus far, I've attracted/worked mostly with young women in their 20s - early 30s. I absolutely love this "demographic." My work is a beautiful fit for me because:

🌻 I am an HSP (to the Nth degree) & intuitively understand the challenges & gifts of highly sensitive souls - including the following: deeply processing just about everything (very draining) + frequently feeling  overwhelmed + extreme noise sensitivity + more.

🌿I care deeply about people (& am inherently curious *very much so* about humans & human behavior) 

🌻Listening + supporting + gently challenging non-optimal beliefs & behaviors come naturally to me.

Currently, my offerings include 1:1 counseling sessions and/or a lovely (if I do say so myself), self-paced, online, resilience building course (The HSP Resilience Toolkit). 📓✏

My biz is new-ish & has been on pause for a bit due to "an interrupted life" situation. I'm overjoyed to be able to jump back into my biz - part-time. (I work @ a fancy dessert restaurant for a regular paycheck.) 🧁🍨 My background is in high school teaching + mental health counseling + parish ministry. I have grad degrees in both psychology & theology, my lifelong passions of 50+ years.

I look forward to many things while being part of ABC - most notably, learning more about small biz building & (un)*marketing* (I like to think of it as connecting & sharing) + creating consistent *content* + sharpening some tech skills (oh my!!) + connecting with all of you lovely humans. "Joyful Productivity" intrigues me to no end!! ♥️ I'm all about the joy!! 😊

I've been *following* George Kao for awhile now - via FB & YouTube. Of all the folks I've "stumbled" across on this wild biz/personal development journey, George & Tad Hargrave have captured my mind + heart + soul the very most. I have wanted to join MH or ABC for a couple of years now, & the time is finally as purrfect as it gets!! Eventually, when I have more time, I hope to participate in Soul Gym as well. 🌟

I live in San Diego, CA.

A few of my favorite things include strong black tea, scones, pink gerber daisies, books, deep conversations, solitude, the rain, Joni Mitchell's voice, ice cream & cats. 🫖 🍪 🌸 📚 ☔ 🎼 🍦 🐈‍⬛

I hope to add a short video at some point - once I become a bit more tech savvy. 🎥 The tech learning curve has been IMMENSE for this Baby Boomer!!

Hi All, I'm DeShawn :)

I've had a biz for the last 12 years while I worked full-time and raised my family. I'm a grandma, mom, friend, coach, and wife, but for the last 12 years, I have felt like a robot. I want this to change. 

I have found that I've been a little walled off as I've worked. I knew I was missing something, and I feel I've found it with George and you all. I'm calling the 'it' a soul community and a place to be real. I especially love the community here and hope to find a way to build my own community by enjoying the support and care I get through the Soul Gym and other interactions here. My hope and intention is that I can be as attentive and kind to my community as I've received in this place. 

I retired and stepped away from my biz in 2022, only promising myself to pick it up if I missed it because, in truth, I didn't want to be obsessive about it, and I knew that was a real probability. 

This time away has dramatically changed how I see myself supporting others, and that change prompted me to offer a self-discovery approach to understanding strengths, identifying 'what' is satisfying, and then creating a personalized productivity approach using that information. Then I found the Launch A Group Course and felt supported.

Because of the balm I've found here, I have a group launch for a four-week systematic self-discovery mastermind in January, so I'm excitedly working on that. I have a December Summit I've been invited to and hope to be taken up for another offer in February. 

I also hope to find out how I can connect more with other like-minded folks, start to grow my list so it gets warmer, learn more about my signature energy, and feel more confident taking this list from close friends to those I don't know yet but can support.

My husband and I are empty-nesters as of  June, so I have much more time to serve others and learn more about myself. Much of my attention has been outwardly focused, and I'm finding it important to center, especially now that I am working to serve others more. 

I hope to grow friendships here and support others in this playfully structured place with you all!
