What is On-Call Support…?

Let’s talk about what that is - and what it’s not. The support I offer is not therapy, and it’s not business coaching. It falls into it’s own space that hasn’t been well named or noticed… but deeply needed.

As an entrepreneur, founder, or business leader in any capacity - you are making decisions every day that even many people in your inner circle simply don’t understand. You may not be able to take these dilemmas to your board, your executive team, your partner.

It’s here that I can help. I understand these challenges and the dynamics that point to complex decision making. I understand it can be lonely where you’re sitting. I’m your third-party, impartial listener and advisor - and I have your best interests in mind. 

  • When something’s just not “clicking” and you need to find a way out of your indecision to get back on your path of success - you and I can work through that.

  • When personal feelings are clouding an issue with your team - I can provide the outside perspective to find clarity.

  • When real emotions mix with real business dilemmas - we can untangle that.

I want you to know, you are not alone… Business is not easy. And I’ll let you in on a little secret - almost every leader you meet is dealing with the same struggles on an ongoing basis. It’s normal. The reality is, these are the things they don’t teach you in business school. These are the difficult choices that your employees and even contemporaries may not understand.

I do. And that’s why I’m here.

Why is On-Call Access so effective?

Access to a confidential and judgment-free zone to discuss sensitive issues, brainstorm solutions, and receive unbiased feedback, keeps you moving forward with clarity and confidence. Additionally, it offers the following:

  1. Immediate, Tailored Support: Options up to “same-day” scheduling to access to expert advice tailored to your unique challenges and situations.

  2. Strategic Decision-Making Support: Support for strategic decision-making, offering insights and perspectives that help you navigate complex choices with confidence and clarity.

  3. Cognitive and Emotional Relief: With unlimited support, founders can alleviate the cognitive overload and emotional stress that often accompany leadership roles. This relief is vital for maintaining mental clarity and emotional stability, allowing founders to lead more effectively.

  4. Consistent, Reliable Sounding Board: Founders benefit from having a consistent sounding board for their ideas and concerns, which is essential for validating strategies and addressing uncertainties that arise in day-to-day operations.

  5. Reduced Sense of Isolation: Isolation has been shown to degrade cognitive capacity. Having access to on-call support significantly reduces the sense of isolation that many founders experience, fostering a sense of connection and understanding that is often lacking in high-level positions.

  6. Adaptability and Resilience Building: Continuous support helps founders build adaptability and resilience, equipping them to handle the ups and downs of the startup lifecycle more effectively. Most importantly, it helps them begin to trust their intuition.

  7. Personal and Professional Growth: The service supports both personal and professional growth, ensuring that founders develop skills and strategies that are beneficial for their business and their personal development.

  8. Long-term Vision and Short-term Execution Balance: Founders are assisted in balancing long-term vision with short-term execution, ensuring that daily actions align with overarching business goals.

  9. Accessibility and Convenience: The flexibility of text, email, and 1:1 sessions provides founders with support that fits into their busy schedules, making it easier to access help when needed.
