The Inspiration Behind the Business

Jodi’s journey is rooted in personal experience. As a mother and mid-career professional, she faced the same challenges many of her clients do—navigating change, seeking fulfillment, and striving for balance. Her business was born from a passion to help others find clarity and confidence in their careers and to support organizations in building healthier, more connected workplaces.

The BACD Journey

Jodi turned to the Business Advisory Centre Durham to help transition her business from part-time to a scalable model. Through the Starter Company Plus program funded by The Ministry of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade, she received a grant, in-depth guidance on business structure, marketing, and sustainability.

“BACD has been a pivotal support system. They helped me build a sustainable business model and market to the right audience.”
