build your resilience, prepare to thrive

Be part of the growing movement of inspired, empowered and more enlightened entrepreneurs doing business in a better way. The Resilience Masterclasses are a collection of four masterclasses and supporting content that will set your business up for a truly sustainable future.

A unique opportunity to learn from Fiona Humberstone and Elizabeth Cairns, author of The Empowered Entrepreneur and co-hosts of Style and Substance podcast for a series of recorded sessions that draw on the wisdom of a collective 40+ years in business.

hustling is not a business model we'd recommend

If the past twenty years have taught us anything, it's that resilience is key to a thriving business. Crafting a highly successful business is about more than just putting in the hours and running yourself ragged. It's about prioritising you as the entrepreneur; taking care of your wellbeing and creating the conditions for you to thrive.

In these masterclasses we'll show you a more sustainable approach to business. We'll help rethink your approach to work, sidestep the hustle and bring joy and balance back to the heart of your business.

Let's create a thoroughly resilient business

We'll help you reset your boundaries; feel good about your pricing and be able to say 'no' with confidence and grace. We'll explore promotion without burnout, aligning your core offerings with your magic and inspire you to truly do business on your terms.

"A huge THANK YOU for running this wonderful course. Thank you for the careful consideration you have obviously given to the content so as to produce something genuinely meaningful and for the energy, enthusiasm and care with which it has been delivered."

learn, empower, energise

Join us to gain the insights, energy and momentum of an approach that will serve you and your business better. Here's what you'll gain:

  • the knowledge

    A path out of the hustle and the inevitable burnout that comes with that towards a better way of doing business. Alongside over five hours of recorded video content we've handpicked and created a collection of resources that will really inform your thinking and deepen your resilience know-how. We want to show you how you can create a more sustainable and wholly empowered way of working that energises, inspires and opens the doors to opportunity.

  • the perspective

    There's more to running a successful business than fear, formuale, income boasting and squeeze pages. Ultimately it has to serve you, and the life you want to create and we want to show you how to balance that. As entrepreneurs we're in this for the long haul so let's create businesses that sustain you and are sustainable for the long term.

  • the energy

    Our businesses need the right energy to sustain them. What you learn from these masterclasses will put you back at the heart of your business and will give you the energy and agency to move forwards with intention.

"I’m getting SO MUCH from the resilience seminars. Just what I need to help me move forward this year so thank you. It’s perfect."
