Imagine...
-
... Being Authentically You: You show up as your true self in your marketing, not some prescribed version of who you should be in order to get customers. No more masks
-
… Doing the right thing: Your integrity is everything. And your clients love you for that and seek you out because they trust you to always tell them the truth.
- … Doing Good AND Getting Paid: Your clients resonate with you and tell you "It's YOU I want to work with!"
-
… Contributing to making this world a better place: You’re growing a business that financially supports you, helps others, and makes an impact in this world.
That's our common goal in the Gentle Business Circle
The Circle is an intimate and global community of Humane Marketers.
It's a calm space to hang out with like minded conscious entrepreneurs and help each other build our business and grow our impact.
By exchanging knowledge, skills and experiences we develop:
- Our individual and collective competence

Here's what matters to us Humane Marketers:
We run our business to make a positive difference and to support ourselves financially
We embrace gentleness throughout our business
We align who we are with what we do
We aim to bring back the human connection to marketing
We approach marketing from a place of abundance
We are gentle visioneers, part visionaries, part pioneers.

There is no discrimination depending on revenue in the Circle. No need to be in the 6 or 7-Figure club. If that's where you're at: great! We'd love to have you!! But know that in the circle we don't typically measure success by the number of zeros in your revenue :-)
The Circle is a place for people who believe they can learn from each other to improve and consolidate their practice.
“A circle is a way of doing things differently than we have become accustomed to. The Circle is a return to our original form of community as well as a leap forward to create a new form of
community. It's an ancient process of consultation and communion that, for tens of thousands of years, had held the human community together and shaped its course.”
- Christina Baldwin, Calling the Circle
What will I learn?
The Gentle Business Circle is based on the principle of 'a leader in each chair'.
Rather than ‘teaching’, Sarah will be sharing her know-how, point of view, tools, ideas etc. based on 12 years of running an Online Business.
And, the idea is also to bring in the know-how of all the members since everyone in the Circle has a unique expertise that can be tapped into.
We create something new and different: a modern leadership model that’s focused on the inclusion of everyone’s unique life & business experience.
You will:
- Find new ways to think, feel and act in your business
- Consolidate your professional identity by comparing your approach to those of others
- Call forward the best of who you are
- Learn how to help and to be helped
- Listen attentively and speak with intention
- Appreciate the level of vulnerability in the group
- Get feedback from the collective intelligence, not just one guru.
How will I feel when I join
