Running a business can be a lot!
The decisions. The pivots. The WTF am I doing moments.
You’re wearing all the hats, spinning all the plates, and trying to make the right moves - without second guessing EVERY DAMN THING 🤯 That’s where I come in!
I help ambitious business owners cut through the chaos, make confident moves, and build a business that actually works - for them. Whether you need a sounding board, a strategy that makes sense, or someone to help you figure things out in real time - I’ve got you.
Because let’s be real: you don’t need another PDF strategy that sits in your inbox untouched.
You need someone who gets in the trenches with you, helps you cut through the noise, advocates for you, and actually helps you to make things happen - without working yourself into the ground.
This isn’t about "one-size-fits-all" business advice. Let’s make sure the moves you’re making actually get you where you want to go. Your goals, your business, your way - just a lot less solo.
If...
👉 You’re growing, but everything feels messy - and not in the cool 'messy action' way.
👉 You’ve got big ideas but keep overthinking, spiraling or going round in circles.
👉 You want to make bold moves but need a sounding board to help you challenge and refine things.
👉 You’re done with DIY-ing everything and craving structure, clarity, and a strategy that gets results.
👉 You want more than just advice. You want support, accountability, and someone in your corner who gets it.
👉 You want someone who's from the industry in your corner, cheering you on and guiding you along the way.
“the benefits were immense”
When I started out, I was uncertain about the direction of my business - whether to focus on veggie or meat options, sell at markets or shops, or even dream of owning my store. I joined various support programs, but the lack of personalised guidance left me feeling lost.
That’s when I met Sophie, the Founder of Market & Me, and everything changed. Sophie’s approach was tailored to my needs. She listened, understood my creativity, and helped craft a plan that worked for my unique business. Her insights on refining my product line to highlight its key selling points - like locally sourced ingredients and authentic
Caribbean flavours - were invaluable. Plus, her guidance on crafting pitch decks for retail meetings helped me secure partnerships with local shops and markets. The benefits were immense.
Working with Sophie gave me the support, emotional backing, and confidence I needed. She transformed my mindset from doubt to action. Beyond business strategy, Sophie also celebrated my wins, helped me navigate challenges, and provided a space for sharing my doubts. Our relationship grew from mentorship to genuine friendship, where we work through challenges and celebrate success together. Thanks to Sophie’s support, my journey with Lula’s Artisan Patties has been a story of growth, flavourful innovation, and collaboration. I’m excited for what’s ahead and grateful for the community that has embraced my passion for creating delicious vegetarian patties.

Meet your business strategist & coach, Sophie
I’ve spent 20+ years in retail, hospitality, and leisure, working with startups, independents, and global brands - helping them grow, pivot, and build businesses that actually work.
I’ve been on both sides of the table - leading commercial strategy for Westfield Shopping Centres and TfL’s 2,500-property estate, and on the brand side, heading up operations, marketing, and retail teams. I know what it takes to make a business thrive in competitive spaces—and what holds it back.
I’ve also worked with 50+ founders who were stuck in the cycle of overthinking, second-guessing, and trying to do it all alone - until we built clear strategies that actually moved them forward.
If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels and start making real progress - let’s get going!
