Business as Soulwork

When business sets the path for personal, professional and soulful growth.

Business as Soulwork is an intimate deep dive over six months that fuses the purpose and growth of your business, with the unique callings of your soul.

Meeting fortnightly over 12 sessions, this journey is built on the premise that our business goals, life dreams and visions for the world are akin to the soul speaking the lessons it wants to learn.

For many, our business and creative projects set the curriculum for the soul-growth and life experiences we yearn for. 

Our soul can seduce us to follow seemingly impossible dreams.

Equally, they are impossible to ignore.

Our vision sets the path.

Perhaps you:

>> Feel running your business is simultaneously the hardest thing you’ve ever done and your life’s calling;

>> Believe your business is the vehicle for big, soul-level life lessons;

>> Want to your business to incorporate equal parts logic and magic, strategy and flow; practical and personal;

>> Aim to design your life and business to be guided by nature, cycles and ecological intelligence;

>> Are yearning for connection with and understanding of your purpose in the world;

>> Are ready for the next layer of depth, knowledge and structure in your journey and business.

How it works,
how we work together:

Business as Soulwork offers you a consistent, in-depth and held space to explore yourself, your relationship with your business, and the needs of the business itself. 

There is no set curriculum – the path is determined by what is most relevant and important to you. At the start of the engagement, we will map out your objectives and create a plan (in as much or as little detail as feels good for you).

Over the six months, I am here for mentorship, advice and accountability – but ultimately I am guided by you and the goals, structure and creative flow you are looking for. 

When needed, I will offer structure, wisdom and more formal learning – drawing on a suite of themes, theories and frameworks to customise your journey according to what you need.

These include >>

Personal development frameworks:

  • Development Theory and the self-transforming mind

  • Mindfulness, neuroscience and guided meditation

  • Exploration of what Bill Plotkin calls your ‘eco-niche’

  • Nature-based practices 

  • Decolonising the self

  • Shifting relationship with capitalism and consumerism

  • The fears and joys of being seen

  • Vulnerability and comfort zones

Business and leadership frameworks:

  • Social Enterprise Business Model Canvas

  • Strategic Planning

  • Brand Messaging & Strategy

  • Ideation and Brainstorming Techniques

  • Social Impact Models

  • Third Horizon Thinking

  • Systems Awareness

  • Regenerative Leadership

  • The Art of Facilitation

About your mentor, Lucy (she/they).

I have 15 years experience in facilitation, business and social impact – from the grassroots in advocacy through to CEO and Board roles. Given the economy permeates every aspect of society and is essential to our survival, I truly believe we can (and must) harness the potential of business for good. Together, we can design new ways of doing business that weave in our greater gifts, purpose and dreams. You can learn more about me here.
