So I talk a lot about how much I hate business coaching as an industry, Marissa is the primary exception to my disdain and loathing 😂 Create The Rules as a toolkit has been super helpful to me, and unlike a number of other business coaches I’ve done sales calls and thought about working with, Marissa *really understands* and respects my neurodivergence, as well as my political commitments and values for my life and how I want to do business, while still encouraging me and making space for me to actually grow a sustainable enterprise and not put myself under the nearest bus out of a misguided sense of service or community.
I cannot tell you how infuriating it has been to have to navigate for the last 10 years through industries and conversations where I was told that honoring my *fundamental values* as a person was “limiting beliefs” or other bullshiterous nonsense. Since I started working with Marissa I’ve double and a half’d my annual income (and the important part: increased my take home) while still being very much myself.
