“I am an introvert. Being part of a Network scares the life out of me!”

I get it! Perhaps it doesn’t scare the life out of you – but it does make you feel nervous or squeamish. The butterflies are up and about – and certainly not in formation.

What I can tell you is that this is entirely normal. Being an introvert myself (along with, I would say, 50%+ of our Members), I know how important it is to feel safe in a business environment. The HerBusiness Network is a safe and caring environment. It’s designed to support you to become known so that you become liked and trusted. We aim to help you find a way to participate that is comfortable for you entirely.

Of course, if I think you will benefit from some ‘tough love’, I will undoubtedly be very respectful and provide it in a supportive and appropriate way.

“I have a ton of experience. I feel like I should have it all worked out by now!””

Don’t you love that little voice in your head? You know, the one that just said, “I’m not a voice” or… “what’s she talking about? I don’t have a voice in my head”.

Here’s the truth. We are where we are. We can’t do anything about what has got us to this point. But of course, we CAN do something about where we’re going. One small change today can significantly change where you end up and the growth you can see in your business in the next 12 months.

Whether you think you should know it all or there’s still a lot to learn – you’re in the perfect place. I know, you’ve heard that before. But the truth is – I BELIEVE it. I really do. Over the last 30+ years, I have seen women achieve results they previously thought impossible. Some results were massive, some not so huge, but all were meaningful and vital.

Ask that little voice in your head to take a rest. Thank it for everything it contributes to you, and then… take control.

“I sell a product. I am selling a service. I need to talk to people in MY industry!”

Whether you sell a product, a service, a solution, a consultancy, or a trip to the moon – business is business!

In fact, over the years, I have learned way more from working alongside companies vastly different from mine than what I’ve learned from my competition. I’ve learned from those industries and those business ideas that have given me a massive competitive edge.

For example, when I took what I learned from working in the music industry in the early days at Virgin in Australia and applied these lessons directly to my educational events business — we flew right past our competitors.

Or the experiences that one of my friends has taken from Netflix.

She applied the lessons directly to her T-shirt business and outsmarted her competitors.

There is no monopoly on good ideas or best business practices. I can guarantee you that the broader your exposure to other businesses, the better entrepreneur you will become.

“Is this just a shiny new object? Shouldn’t I just stay focused?”

If you’re like me, maybe you’ve suffered from the Shiny New Object Syndrome. It’s where we swing from one perceived solution to another perceived solution. Perhaps it’s the next best software solution. Or the next best course. I get it. I’ve been there and done that.

That’s why I have very intentionally designed the HerBusiness Network Member Benefits in a way that supports you to focus and take action on the next thing that will get you the best possible result.

This is not about a ‘Firehose’ of information coming at you. This IS about you making progress in the area that will give you the best possible result for what you need next.

Business success is EVOLUTIONARY, not REVOLUTIONARY. It requires focus and commitment to doing what will get you the next needed result.

“I’ve tried this before - and I’ve never had success!”

Perhaps your business hasn’t turned out to be as viable as you thought. This means that you might benefit from a fresh approach, pivoting the concept towards a more sustainable business model.

Your HerBusiness Network membership can help with that.

Some people who tell me they’ve tried everything have a closed mind. And there’s not much I can do about that – other than to tell you the truth. If you’re willing to consider different points of view, then great. If not, then I don’t like the chances of anything working for you.

Another typical response I hear is: “I get stuck. I don’t understand.” But, when I ask questions, I find that this person has been stuck for a while.

And their BIG issue – is asking for help from peers, their tribe or community and mentors. You HAVE to seek advice and support. If ever I have felt like this… like there was no way forward, I have had to take an in-depth look at myself – and ask myself whether I am really trying.

Am I really giving this all I can? Once I connect with what I really want, I realise I have to keep taking that next step — because there’s no such thing as overnight success in business.

“What results can I expect to get?”

If you’ve been in business for a while, you already have solid products or services, loyal clients, and years of hard work behind you. But now, you’re ready for more.

You may be looking for a more reliable way to bring in consistent clients, repeat business, and high-quality referrals. Or you may be craving the kind of support and connections that open doors to strategic partners, alliances, and suppliers that can help you grow.

Maybe you’ve realised it’s time to evolve — to move from working one-to-one into scalable offers, to finally hire the right team, to streamline your systems, or to shift more of your business online.

At HerBusiness, we help you design your next chapter. One that fits who you are now. You’ll clarify your 12-month vision and create a practical growth plan, so you can reach more of your ideal clients, package and price your offers for profit, and lead a business that gives you the freedom and fulfilment you’ve been working toward.

Over 12 months, you’ll make meaningful progress in the areas that matter most — Money, Marketing, Mindset, People, and Systems. And you won’t be doing it alone. You’ll be surrounded by a community of women business owners who are also reshaping their businesses to grow sustainably and on their terms.

With the right guidance, frameworks, and support, you’ll finally get the return on all the years you’ve invested in your business — many times over.
