Are you an ambitious entrepreneur
juggling all the plates? feeling overwhelmed, frustrated and stuck in a rut?
I'm Rhiannon: business mentor,
mother/carer and burnout survivor.
and I am here to help you.
mentorship, storytelling + support
for women growing businesses
while raising small humans
You're passionate and excited about growing your business- but you're doing it while juggling ALL the plates. Time is in short supply (so is headspace) and you're struggling to find a way to keep up with the day to day of running a business AND a household- never mind finding time for the big picture goals (or *gasp* a few spare moments for yourself).
Adapting your business in a way that works for you is not as complicated as it seems (really- hear me out). With clear direction and focus, a strategy for managing your time, and a sustainability plan to keep you on track you CAN create a business that helps you achieve your dreams while still allowing you the time and energy you need for your other very important role as mum/ carer.
If you, like me, are a busy-brained/ neurodivergent entrepreneur with a whole lot of responsibilities in your life- you might be thinking none of this will work for you.
I was there too. I rebel against strict rules, I don't like rigid structure and I really didn't believe I could implement a strategy to make my business suit my chaotic life.
What's the secret? Flexibility, rewriting the rules and thinking outside the box- plus a little support to keep you going.
I've managed to do it with my own business, even with all the odds stacked against me, and I can help you do it with yours too.
In case you're thinking "what does she know about juggling all the plates"? I'll share here that I'm mum to two young girls, one of whom has a rare genetic disorder and complex needs, I run two small businesses, I host a podcast, I co-host networking events, I'm training a therapy dog, renovating a Victorian Terrace and somehow managing to find a little bit of time for me too.

WHY choose me over other business mentors?
First and foremost: I get it. I really do. I too am juggling a lot of heavy plates- and I've learned a fair bit about this balancing act over the past ten years as an entrepreneur.
I am confident I can help you because I have been where you are. I've felt stuck, overwhelmed, burnt out and frustrated. I've spent ALL my spare hours working on my business and felt like I was getting nowhere. I've dealt with the guilt (oh, the mum guilt!) and I've made the big mistakes- learning my lessons the hard way.
But now? I've come out the other side. Last year, my business grew to the point I had to cut off bookings: I hit 89k in revenue, shooting way past my financial goal despite working less hours than the years before- and navigating some really tough stuff in my personal life too.
How? I adapted my business to fit my needs- in my OWN way. I am someone with a busy (and likely neurodivergent) brain, a rebellious personality and a real hatred of structure and rules- so I had to rewrite those rules to make this new framework work for me. If my stubborn, rule breaking self can do it- so can you. I'm sure of it. You just need a little help to get you back on track!
Along with that relatable experience, I am beyond passionate about what I do. You won't find anyone who believes in supporting small businesses as much as me- especially those led by women. I'm a fierce feminist with anti-capitalist values and I am a firm believer in community over competition.
And you definitely won't find anyone who takes a more unique, customised and rebellious approach to mentorship: I believe in thinking outside the box, breaking outdated corporate "rules" and TAKING UP SPACE- especially as women in business.
If you want some credentials too, though:
Any small part I can play in encouraging more women* to become entrepreneurs, to follow their passion and create the kind of lifestyle they want for themselves- despite juggling other important plates- that's the kind of work I was born to do.
*women means ALL who identify as women, by the way: non binary, gender fluid and trans women are welcome too. Inclusivity is a core value for me!
so... What are you waiting for? Let's do this!
You know it's time for a change. You know you can't continue on as you are (unless you want to hit major burnout mode- and having been there twice myself and learned the hard way... trust me, you don't). And you know that you need someone to guide you along the way: to help you find clear direction and focus, to better manage your time and energy, and to put a framework in place that's sustainable no matter what life throws your way (life with small children is anything but predictable).
Self employed life can feel lonely, but it doesn't have to be. If you're feeling stuck in a rut, unsure of how to tackle your current obstacles, or drowning in the day to day while you dream about goals that seem out of reach? It's time to invest in yourself and your business and bring the right mentor on board to get things back on track. Drop me a message at hello@rhiannonlouden.co.uk or book a call via the link below.

What people say
"Rhiannon was instrumental in helping me clarify & quantify my brand values and ethos. It was a consultative process that was hugely informative & helped form the basis of my offering.
She also helped with brand content and planning, again very helpful and full of knowledge. To top it all off she's also a fantastic photographer so was able to take photos of me, already knowing my brand and what we were trying to achieve. I could not recommend her highly enough!"
