  I joined Sarah's Digital Queens Mastermind in January 2023. We are in month 5 and I am transformed! I have a plan! We set out our annual goals, and revist these monthly and quarterley. I plan my social media content for the month, not just post ad-hoc! Our guest experts are amazing, I learn each and every time. The overall feel of our Mastermind is planning, support, sharing wins and hard times plus Sarah is a great motivator. The feeling of being in a group is great for me as I work from home, alone. It is the best thing I have done and cannot wait to see how far I will go in my business in another 5 months!

  I highly recommend Sarah's mastermind 'Digital Queens'.  I've loved the monthly planning sessions (this has been a needle-mover for me), the monthly expert training, the accountability that the co-working sessions and the check-ins give me, and the monthly sessions where we get to share our wins and our challenges.  I've also loved the input from the group - having a group of smart, fellow-business owners, with amazing insight, experience and advice has been a game-changer for me.  Entrepreneurship can be a pretty lonely game and this group has been an amazing sounding board for my ideas, a vent for my fears and frustrations and all-round cheer-leaders.  They've given me some amazing little nuggets of wisdom and ideas that have increased the trajectory of my business.  I definitely wouldn't be where I am, with the mindset that I have, without my (Digital) Queens.  Join.  Just Join.

  Sarah has encouraged me to step out of the shadows of my family business, kick imposter syndrome to the curb, clarify my role and take my business to the next level. Sarah has been more than a mentor, she’s my trusted non-judgementor and all round business fairy godmother! I can confidently say that without her support and transformative programs such as Digital Queen Masterminds and Blooming Biz Academy my family business wouldn’t be where it is today. I am truly grateful.
