Wanted to be Jane Bond but ended up in journalism 🤷🏻‍♀️
I help entrepreneurs and startups impact the world with their stories. Life is too short to play small.
Those who tell the stories run the world.
George Monbiot
Storytelling is a powerful tool for personal and professional growth.
Strategic support
I can help you with your content strategy and marketing campaigns—startup stories, interviews, thought leadership pieces, case studies, ebooks, long-form blog posts, newsletters, research, whitepapers, plus content facelifts/refreshers.
I work by project, retainer, or day rate (from ÂŁ500). I also offer packages, see below.
#1 Founder Journey Package
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
Maya Angelou
Good stories surprise us—make us think and feel. Stories are remembered up to 22 times more than facts alone.
I can interview you/your co-founder about your why and mission. What problem are you solving? We align with a person and a story more than with a business or brand.
True big picture editorial. A cornerstone/foundational piece of content that you can use in all your communications.
Perfect for startups to establish you as one of a kind. Learn more
Here are some interviews I’ve done recently:
• Bold Types: Adriana Tica 🇷🇴 [The Shift]
• Ambercycle takes on the world of fast fashion [The Green Techpreneur]
Interested in finding out more? Leave your details below and I’ll be in touch.
Thank you for your thoughtful questions. Answering them felt more like a journaling session than an interview. Very great!
Johanna Renoth, Founder, Bye, Social Media!
#2 Newsletter Package
Newsletters done for you.
Build your email list and cultivate your community.
I think newsletters are the best thing since sliced bread—the best way to build a sustainable biz and your freedom vehicle.
A powerful (yet often underrated tool) for really engaging with your audience.
I can help you start and grow your newsletter. I love Substack as it’s a joy to use – great UI and a community spirit, but I work across platforms. Learn more
