Small business community group and coaching

I'm a business strategist and founder of Market & Me. I help established independent founders grow with confidence - after years of watching great businesses lose direction trying to do it all. My career started in retail and hospitality, leading teams and running national brands. I then spent almost a decade working with landlords and developers including Westfield and Transport for London, leading strategy and performance across retail and mixed-use destinations. That mix means I understand both sides: the founder balancing everyday realities, and the landlord focused on long-term results. Now, I bridge the gap, helping independent businesses perform at their best. What I help with: Finding clarity when you're scaling or figuring out what's next Growing sustainably in a way that works for how you actually want to run your business Standing out in crowded markets Creating space to think strategically, not just operationally Peer support through Founders Sessions - monthly work days for independent founders who get it My approach is practical, people-first and grounded in experience. I help business owners step back from the noise, find clarity and make decisions that build businesses they're proud to run. Because when people thrive, their businesses do too.
