Let’s Be Honest: I’m Not a Thought Leader, I’m a Working Mom With a Coaching Business

Last week, someone messaged me on LinkedIn and said: “I love how you’ve become a thought leader on here.”
It was kind. It made me smile. But here’s the truth:
I’m not a thought leader.
’m a small business owner.
A small business owner who loves helping people build careers that feel aligned. A small business owner who cares deeply about work that doesn’t burn people out. And a small business owner who is realizing she needs to be much clearer about her services, because clarity isn’t just good marketing, it’s how I put food on my family’s table.
So instead of being profound today, I want to be practical. If you’ve ever wondered, “How do I work with Brandi?”, let’s walk through it.
This is the most accessible offering I have and the best place to start if you're feeling stuck, discouraged, burned out, or unsure what you want next.
Inside the course, you’ll learn:
What your true core values are
How to make career decisions that don’t lead to burnout
How to rebuild clarity and direction
How to create work that actually aligns with who you are
It’s self-paced, ADHD-friendly, reflective, and gives you the foundation for every future career decision.
If you're craving clarity without diving into coaching yet, start here for only $49.99 and it has an option to get your full money back if you complete the course, assessment, and social share within 30 days.
This is where the momentum happens fast.
These sessions are for the moments when you want someone in your corner who sees your potential, helps you get out of your head, and gives you a concrete plan.
Topics I help with include:
Job search strategy that works today
Leadership growth for new or first-time managers
Burnout recovery and reclaiming balance
Career pivots, confidence rebuilding, and navigating uncertainty
Thought partnership when big decisions feel heavy
These sessions are practical, personal, and structured. You will walk away with action steps, not vague encouragement.
And you have the option to pay as you go, $229/session, or buy a pack of 6 for a $200 savings.
This is my highest-level offer, a 3-month partnership for women and barrier breakers who are ready for tangible, sustainable growth.
You receive:
A full development plan
Assessments and tailored resources
Homework, tools, and frameworks
Voxer-style access for in-between support
A coach who walks beside you, not above you
This program is for people who are truly ready to level up their leadership, confidence, and clarity.
It’s intense, supportive, and transformational.
Let’s Talk About the Hard Part: Investing in Yourself During the Holidays
This time of year is expensive. There are gifts, travel, food, traditions, and it can feel impossible to justify spending money on yourself.
But here’s what I want you to hear:
If you want to be more successful, more aligned, more confident, and better supported in 2026…No one is coming to save you.
You get to choose yourself. You get to invest in your clarity, momentum, and growth.
And even if it feels uncomfortable, you’re allowed to put yourself first.
To make that easier, I’m offering two December-only holiday bundles.

If you only take one thing away from this article:
You are worth investing in.
Your future deserves clarity and support.
And 2026 can be the year everything shifts, but only if you say yes to yourself.
I may not be a thought leader. But I am a coach who believes deeply in helping people feel seen, heard, and valued. If you’re ready for change, I’m ready when you are.
