"This was elegantly designed. Simple and powerful. Now I feel excited and hopeful instead of just scared and overwhelmed. Design Your Dream Business takes what feels like an overwhelming, impossible task and breaks it down into doable steps in a powerful process."
"Before joining Design Your Dream Business, I was struggling with feeling pulled in too many directions as I contemplated the next steps for my business. I felt I should pursue more and more trainings and certifications, which felt exhausting and daunting.
Recognizing that this is a part of me that doesn't need to be in charge of all my business decisions has opened up space for me to imagine how to let shine what I'm already good at, what I love and want to others.
You'll leave with a plan you can use and a deeper sense of what you're doing, what may get in the way, and how to set yourself up for success despite those obstacles. I highly recommend this! It’s great opportunity to get support with making your dream business a reality.”
– Sarah Stone, MFA, LICSW
"Design Your Dream Business is WELL worth the money– Sara over-delivers for sure. if you want clarity, a plan, and not just another program you buy and never do, this is a winner."
"When I signed up for this, I felt very overwhelmed by tasks but unsure where/how to start and guide myself. I didn’t know how to focus on an actual plan for my business or how to design my life to achieve what I wanted.
I’ve done so many yearly reviews/yearly plans…and they've never really worked. This year, I really wanted to be in a community as i designed my year. I think that was one of the main reasons the other things had failed me in the past. I wanted accountability but also just company.
I love and trust Sara and her judgment, and I appreciated how this was bridging the inner and outer work– and outlining how important that is.
Now, I feel much clearer about my year, each quarter, and what I want to achieve. I have much less anxiety. I'm really glad I participated in this program and I would highly recommend it. It truly helped me both clarify my vision for 2024, but also to know how to continually refine it as I go...as opposed to designing something and then feeling like I've failed a month in. The inner work is so huge and allows for a continuation of parts dialogue to see the dream through."

You'll walk away from Design Your Dream Business with:
↪ A clear view of exactly what has–and hasn’t–worked well in your business over the past 12 months (so you know what to eliminate and amplify in the year ahead).
↪ A guided visioning process to identify the inner resources & obstacles connected with your vision for 2025, along with a plan for how to relate to them skillfully.
↪ Clear goals for your business, health, spirituality, lifestyle, and relationships in the year ahead– as well as a process to reverse engineer them, helping ensure their fulfillment.
↪ A powerful meeting of your “inner committee” to harness the inner support you need to root into your wholeness so you can work smarter, not harder, toward fulfilling your dreams this year.
↪ A personalized-to-you 12-month plan — a map of your income, marketing, sales, and creation strategies that are aligned with your values, so you know exactly what to do each month to cultivate success while allowing your business to be a conduit for the Sacred in the world.
“It's 10/10 effective, accessible, and offers a gentle, heart-centered approach to designing and planning for success."
"I joined Design Your Dream Business because I felt like I was lacking clarity and direction. This program made it easily accessible to do the work and lay a foundation for the year ahead. It also offered community and support directly from members of the program and Sara, which is always very much appreciated.
This program is eye-opening and gives amazing insights and direction, as long as you are fully invested in doing the work. It's not hard, and the rewards are incredible. It's one of the best bite-sized offerings I have participated in.
I was inspired by how well-developed the themes were and how each day had direct activities that correlated to what the teachings were. It was very nicely put together!"
