Whether in my workplace trainings or in my women’s workshops, support circles and coaching, my favorite thing to teach is the way stress and trauma show up in your body on a daily basis, and how to counteract their impact by using your inherent female capacities to create your own experience of safety and connection. From that foundation, we can talk about anything you please--because whatever you're struggling with, this can help.

coaching:

I started coaching in 2014, working one-on-one with female entrepreneurs. Some years after getting sober, I trained as a recovery coach and expanded to working with women who are trying to figure out how to let go of something (or someone) they don't know how to live without. Nowadays I work with any woman who wants to learn the stuff I like to teach about. Learn more here. 

workshops:

In collaboration with the fabulous women of the Collective Agency, I facilitate a monthly two-hour online learning space for women entrepreneurs. The first hour, we learn about thriving at work by being women, and the second hour is a co-working space with optional live coaching to help you tackle in community the tasks that feel too daunting to take on alone.

women's groups:

My first business was the Female Entrepreneur Resource Network, or FERN (Fern was also my grandmother's name). To welcome all those who identify as women regardless of the body you were born into, I've gladly adopted the more inclusive term 'woman entrepreneur,' but WERN just doesn't have the same ring to it (and Grammy Brown would be miffed). So for branding's sake, FERN is still my go-to.

Fern Circles and Fern Squares are my free quarterly in-person and monthly online gatherings where women learn, share and take a deep breath together. Learn more here.
