Empowering entrepreneurs to build clarity, momentum, and sustainable growth
Hi, I'm Carrie
a Business and Mindset Coach who helps mission-driven entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders build momentum with clear strategies and simple systems, so they can grow their impact.
I know what it feels like to have passion and big ideas — but still feel stuck when it comes to systems, strategy, and consistency.
When I launched my own children’s enrichment business, I started with nothing but an idea and a whole lot of trial-and-error. Step by step, I figured out what worked (and what didn’t), and built simple strategies that made running a business actually feel doable.
Now I help mission-driven entrepreneurs take the business that means so much to them and build systems and strategies that create momentum instead of burnout.
Here’s how we do it together:
Market Your Unique Value → so your message stands out and attracts the right people.
Create Aligned & Authentic Sales Strategies → no pushy tactics, just a clear way to bring clients in consistently.
Build Simple Systems → so your business grows smoothly and sustainably, without burning you out.
I’ve built multiple mission-driven businesses and worked over a decade in child welfare — and I know firsthand how the right systems prevent overwhelm and create space for impact.
⭐I’ve grown PlayMotion Kids from one idea into a thriving movement + mindfulness program for kids and families.
⭐ I’ve layered on a coaching practice that helps entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders find clarity and build systems that last.
⭐ And I’ve done it all while balancing grad school, family, and business (not to mention that time I beat cancer) — proving you don’t need 70+ hours a week to create momentum and growth.
⭐ I’ve supported clients to organize the “messy middle” of their businesses so they can scale their impact with confidence.
⭐ And my favorite: I’ve shown leaders how to grow without losing themselves — building businesses that fit their life, not the other way around.
So yes — you absolutely can build a business that thrives, even if life feels full. I’ve done it, and so have my clients.
What about you? Are you next?
(Spoiler: the answer is yes!)
Around here.....
We build sustainable businesses that are simple, time-efficient, and built on systems that actually work.
So, if you’ve ever thought, “I wish someone would help me clean up the chaos behind the business I love and show me what to focus on first,” you’re in the right place.
This is where mission-driven leaders get custom strategy, simple systems, and real human support.
Having a thriving business doesn’t have to mean working endless hours, burning yourself out, or sacrificing your values. It just takes a clear plan and the right structures in place.
Excuse me while I get on my soapbox: Shiny tactics, chat-gpt, and one-size-fits-all blueprints aren’t a business strategy.
Instead I'll help you:
⭐ Strip away what’s not working
⭐ Double down on the things that are
⭐ Build simple, repeatable systems so you can scale with confidence
You don’t need to do everything to make your business sustainable — you just need to do the right things consistently.
Most of the time, it’s not about adding more to your plate; it’s about letting go so you can focus on what actually creates impact.
If this sounds like the way you want to grow — you’re in the right place
You care deeply about your business and you want it to grow
You started because you care about the impact you make — the people you serve, the cause you believe in, the product or service you know can change lives.
But behind the scenes? It’s not always matching the vision you have in your head.
Maybe you...
Laid your head on the desk at least once this week because the overwhelm is real
Have 1,247 unread emails and no plan for how to tackle them
Googled “time management strategy” and immediately broke into a stress sweat
Wrote out a gorgeous plan on paper, but can’t figure out why you can’t execute it
Or feel like you’re working harder than ever without actually moving forward
If that sounds familiar, you just need clarity, strategy, and systems that fit the way you work and the mission you care so deeply about.
Imagine your mission with momentum.
No more staring at a messy to-do list wondering how you'll get it all done. No more chasing every new idea or feeling like your systems are working against you.
With the right strategies and sustainable systems in place, you can:
✨ Follow a clear roadmap that shows you exactly where to focus next
✨ Have confidence knowing your business is set up to grow
✨ Lead with clarity instead of constantly playing catch-up
✨ Free up your energy to do the work you actually love — serving your people, growing your programs, and making a difference
✨ Seeing your creative ideas come to life.
✨ Making consistent income doing work that feels aligned and impactful.
I believe in the CEO Framework:
Connection, Ease, Outcome
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to already have a business to work with you?
Not necessarily but many of my clients are already teaching, freelancing, running a side hustle, or a small business/nonprofit — but feel stuck on how to make it sustainable.
What kinds of businesses does this work for?
I work with mission-driven entrepreneurs who care deeply about helping others — but feel stuck when it comes to clarity, strategy, and systems.
That often looks like:
Children’s Enrichment Leaders → yoga, dance, fitness, music, tutoring, or other creative programs for kids.
Wellness & Creative Entrepreneurs → coaches, teachers, and service-based solopreneurs who want to grow with more ease and less overwhelm.
Purpose-Driven Founders & Side Hustlers → leaders turning their skills and passions into consistent, sustainable income.
If your work matters deeply to you, but messy systems or inconsistent results are holding you back — this coaching is for you
How is your approach different from other business coaches?
Many coaches focus only on mindset or pieces of a strategy like marketing or social media. My philosophy is rooted in the CEO Framework: Connection, Ease, and Outcome. That means we build relationships, create simple systems, and focus on long-term impact. We do a deep dive into your business and create a customized 12 month plan to encompass a complete business strategy. I will hold you accountable and help you pivot. No shiny tactics, no burnout. Real support.
Does this work for nonprofit leaders too?
Yes. As a social worker with over a decade in child welfare and certification as a Nonprofit Professional (CNP) and Certified Volunteer Administrator (CVA), I understand the unique challenges nonprofits face — from structuring volunteer programs to building sustainable systems. My approach works whether you’re growing a mission-driven business or strengthening an existing nonprofit
I don’t have a lot of time. Will this still work for me?
Absolutely. I know what it’s like to balance a full life. That’s why everything I teach is designed to fit into realistic schedules — no 70-hour weeks required. We focus on the strategies that move the needle and at a pace that is sustainable, so you get results without adding more chaos.
What makes this different from a course or free info online?
You don’t need more information. You need personalized support, simple systems, and someone to help you stay consistent. That’s what I provide as your business coach.
