(Get it here: https://tally.so/r/wodXoP )


So far we're onto something.

Our last Climate Drift Career Accelerator cohort received a Net Promotor Score (NPS) of 75 and 4.7/5 star rating from senior professionals who are notoriously hard to impress.

Plus we’re getting reviews like this: 😍

1️⃣ “This is truly like no cohort out there! (I've done a few). The intimate community setting and amazing, intelligent speakers are unmatched.”

2️⃣ “I’ve already gotten tremendous value out of the course; specifically the action-oriented nature of the course (learning + doing, not just learning) and the orientation towards landing a career in climate and HOW to do it”

3️⃣ ”I learned SO MUCH and feel 10x more equipped for my climate career goals than before.”

4️⃣ “10 out of 10: The content is in-depth and interesting, and gives the cohort opportunities to get involved by tackling challenges hands on (which in my opinion, is the best way to learn!)


We do all of this in partnership with World-class Climate VCs and Climate Tech Companies 🙏

Product Manager for UX

Jana

It's a start-up and we wear many fancy hats around here. My favorite hat is Product Management.

Creating new products for our B2B platform means starting with use cases, sketching wire frames and writing detailed product specifications. Every product feature we build, I test myself and communicate consistently with engineering to deliver scalable solutions.

When I don't work on our core research product I optimize landing pages, test lead generation strategies through case studies and run global research projects for our Fortune 500 clients.

I also instituted a weekly ice-cream budget which benefits... well, mostly me!

Product Manager

“**Daddy, what have you done to keep Mother Earth healthy?**”  👉 Having a good answer for my kids when this Q hits is my personal North Star.

Over the last decade, I bootstrapped my technical education company to be the market leader (60+ NPS), helped 1,000s of people transition careers, sold the first $2M in revenue by myself, got acquired by the fastest growing EdTech company in the US, and scaled the entire online offering to 8-figures ARR in year 1, leading to a $750M acquisition. 

And learning an unbelievable amount of company-building skills (12 to 500 to 4,000 people).

Today, I use all this experience for my next chapter: 

Transitioning 1M people into the Climate Economy. 

My portfolio:
> I’m on the board of 3 high-impact organizations in climate and education. 
> I mentor impact entrepreneurs through the Edmund Hillary Fellowship.
> I built one 6-figure, one 7-figure, and one 8-figure business.

Marco Morawec

I’m ALL about lifting others up.

And I asked my friend Eugene Kirpichov to send me a 1 min video.

Explaining what he does at Work on Climate.

(One of the most respected Climate non-profits I know).

So others can get behind it.

And just to be clear:

I’ve donated my time (I’m on the WOC board) and money (whatever I could give) to WOC before.

And will continue to do so.

Yes, I am building Climate Drift.

Yes, we’re moving a lot of people into climate (we focus exclusively on senior /exec level).

But I never looked at this game as a zero-sum, winner takes all.

Eugene and I have been supporting and helping each other for years.

Go do the same and pick WOC as the non-profit you support this holiday season.

And please tell Eugene what you liked best about his 1-minute pitch in the comments.

(he hates that I make him do those pitch videos 🤣).


Let’s go!

Education for Sustainable Development Leader

Hi, I’m Rachel!

I work with value-aligned B2B and B2C brands to help them get their messages and solutions out to the world.

🌱 Why sustainability and wellness?

Because people and businesses are creating incredible, innovative solutions to improve minds, lives, and the state of the world. The more we can educate, inspire and empower your audience, the quicker we can move towards a healthy, sustainable future.

And when I say sustainability and wellness, I mean the whole gamut: environmental protection, gender equality, mental health, education and more. 

💻 What can I help you with?

I offer a holistic content strategy that includes:

📄 Blogs and articles to engage and inform your audience
📱 Social media content to build and maintain your online presence
📚 Ebooks that showcase your expertise and provide value to your audience
📑 Whitepapers that present in-depth research and insights

🖐️ Five things you’ll get when working with me:

✅ High-quality, original writing
✅ Thoroughly researched content
✅ Copy that’s search engine optimized
✅ Tone of voice appropriate to your audience
✅ A friendly, professional working relationship

📣 Here’s what others have said:

“During her time with us, Rachel has been involved in editing and proofreading, researching and writing a number of engaging, educational, and evidence-based articles based on a wide range of health topics.

We have experienced Rachel as an intelligent, creative, and reliable team member. Her passion and sheer natural talent for editing, combined with her diligence, attention to detail, and excellent time-management skills, make for a superb editor who consistently produces meticulous and accurate work.”

“With little prior background knowledge on energy efficiency, Rachel was extremely open to researching and learning more about the topic and very open to guidance and feedback.

She delivered an excellent article on energy poverty that was concise, well-written, and in line with the content brief I had shared. I am already looking forward to working with Rachel again soon, and highly recommend her for any content writing needs you have in any sector!”

💁‍♀️ Okay, but who am I, really?

Well, since you asked:

🦙 I’m from Bristol, England, but live in Peru
📕 100 Years of Solitude is my favourite book
👩‍🎨 I’m always creating: singing, sewing, piano, painting
☕ I love coffee and welcome your recommendations!

Take a look at some of my work on my website: rachelannelawton.com

And if you want me to join you in making a difference in the world, I’d love to hear from you.
