The confidence to be seen. Finding your inner voice and putting the REAL YOU out there! Speldhurst

A morning of mindset and marketing for solo founders. Find your inner voice and put the real you out there.

Do you find it really cringe, the thought of talking about yourself on social?

Does the idea of videoing yourself make you want to reach for a bowl?

If the whole thing terrifies you and you've got no idea where to start, then this is your sign!

The truth is... amidst a sea of AI rubbish, it's the brands being authentic and showing up as themselves that will win the race.

But I know what it's like having Negative Nelly sat on your shoulder, talking you out of it. Don't do the video. What if someone sees it? What if they leave a horrible comment? Or worse, what if they actually like it, and share it… Oh, the fear.

Stop there! That's your mindset playing tricks on you.

And that's exactly why I've teamed up with Kathryn Allen, emotional intelligence coach, to run a workshop that doesn't just build your confidence, it gets you out of your own head and shows you how to actually do the thing.

Over one morning, in a beautiful converted barn, we will do the inner work and the practical work. You won’t just leave feeling braver. You’ll leave with content already made.

What you'll walk away with

By the end of the morning, you will have:

• Filmed your first video, yep, really!
• Found your voice, and the words that sound like you
• A pocketful of content ideas you can use straight away
• A calmer, clearer way to show up online
• And the confidence to press post!

You came in dreading the camera. You will leave with content in hand, and the nerve to keep going.

About me

I'm Gini, the marketing half of the day.

I've spent 20+ years in marketing, these days helping solo founders and small businesses stop overthinking it and start sounding like themselves.

I don't believe in posting continually. Let's be honest: you built your business because you love your craft, your therapy, your design, not because you love marketing.

So I teach you how to do less of it, not more. Less marketing, more of the right things, done in a way that suits you and your life, not your Instagram.

About Kathryn

Kathryn Allen is the mindset half, and the reason you'll leave lighter than you arrived.

She's an emotional intelligence coach and holistic wellness practitioner based in Tunbridge Wells, and she's brilliant at spotting the stuff that keeps us stuck. That Negative Nelly on your shoulder? Kathryn's whole thing is quietening Negative Nelly and helping you step out of fight or flight, out of your own head, and into a place where showing up actually feels safe.

She will do the inner work. I'll help you turn it into marketing. Together, that's the whole picture.

About Willow Barn

We could have done this in a stuffy meeting room. We chose a barn built by two architects instead.

Willow Barn in Speldhurst is the home of Dilly and her hubby, who designed and built it themselves. Inside there’s a log burner, cosy sofas and a long farmhouse table, and outside there are rolling hills and a garden full of reclaimed treasures. We’ve got the run of both, so there are loads of lovely spots to film and take photos in, whatever the weather.

And that’s the point. You can’t do brave, honest work when you’re tense and distracted. Here, warm and cosy (and yes, with beautiful light for that first video), being seen feels a whole lot easier.

Tea, coffee and breakfast snacks included.

Who it's for

Solo founders, micro business owners, makers, anyone who's ever thought 'I know I should be showing up, but I don't know what to say. No marketing experience needed. Just you.
