Hey, I'm Janic (Zsa-Nick) ...
Your Host and Facilitator
I'm on a mission to help solo business owners and entrepreneurs ditch the overwhelm and lead their businesses with confidence (without the constant chaos and burnout).
As your mentor in kick-ass leadership, I'm here to help you own your role as the leader your biz needs. Think of me as your strategic partner, your permission-giver, and the voice reminding you that you've totally got this... even on the days when it doesn't feel like it.
With 25 years of leadership experience, mostly without the fancy titles or corporate structure, I've figured out what actually works when you're the one wearing all the hats.
Let me save you years of trial and error!
Janic 💜
