The Guiding Light Collective

There are only 2 components to entrepreneurship:

1. The Entrepreneur (You)
2. The Ship (Your business/company)

As an entrepreneur, I'm 100% sure you're focusing all your time and energy on building The Ship.

You're focusing on:

→ Sales
→ Marketing
→ Product
→ Tech
→ Ops

And so on.

In the pursuit of building your Ship, you're forgetting to focus on the most important aspect of this journey:

YOURSELF.


We focus on helping you develop yourself while you can focus on developing your company.

We do this by coaching you on:

→ Time, Energy and Stress Management
→ Self-Awareness and Personal Growth
→ Decision Making
→ Emotional & Social Intelligence
→ Conscious Communication
→ Breaking Your Limiting Beliefs & Thoughts
→ Ideal Work-Life Relationship
→ Personal Issues that show up in your Business
→ Aligning YOUR vision & purpose to your company's


Since, 52% of businesses fail because of leadership issues, we also help rapidly scaling businesses develop their next generation key leadership team.

The growth of a business depends on the growth of the key people in the business.

And that's exactly what we do for you.

There are 2 reasons why people start their own business:

1. They want to create an impact or leave a legacy.
2. They want freedom and financial independence.

If you’re an entrepreneur and you’re reading this, I’m sure you agree.

Now, here’s the interesting thing.

You can’t build an impactful business without other people.

That’s great news because the right people will accelerate your progress.

But it’s bad news because the wrong people will completely ruin it.

This is relevant because:

- 52% of businesses fail because of leadership issues.
- 77% of businesses report they have lacking leadership.
- 63% of next generation leaders aren’t adequately equipped.


On the other hand, a company’s growth depends on the entrepreneur’s ability to:

- Make Key Decisions Objectively.
- Be Resilient and Adapt Constantly.
- Be Emotionally & Socially Intelligent.
- Manage Time, Stress and Energy effectively.
- Develop Self-Awareness and Personal Growth.
- Build & Maintain an Ideal Work-Life Relationship.
- Break Unconscious Destructive Patterns & Beliefs.
- Live and Perform in Alignment with their Vision & Purpose.

Simply put, a company’s growth depends on the entrepreneur’s growth.

And these are the two problems I solve.


I’m a life coach for millennial business owners and founders of recently-funded rapidly-scaling startups and their core leadership team.

My job is to:

- Make sure you’re performing at your peak in your professional AND personal life.
- While developing your key leaders and aligning them to your vision and culture.


You started your business because you wanted freedom and to create an impact.

Let’s make sure you’re doing that by working on the business and not IN the business.

Send me a message and let’s get going!
