For the woman everyone counts on

You get things done.
But this one's still on your list.

You can run the meeting, solve the problem, and keep everyone moving. But when it comes to your own personal growth? Suddenly there are seventeen other things to do.

01

You keep waiting for a quieter week. It hasn't arrived.

02

The idea is in your notes. The next move isn't on your calendar.

03

You can see ten ways forward. Choosing one is where you get stuck.

04

You want help getting it done—not another thing to catch up on.

If executive functioning skills like planning, prioritizing, getting started, or staying focused are a struggle, it can feel like you're getting in your own way—even when the goal really matters to you. Here, we turn that stuck feeling into a smaller next step, a workable plan, and support to keep practicing.

Exactly what you get

The right women.
The support to keep going.

Your $1,600 includes four months in a hand-selected community, live coaching, and practical habit-building—not just a plan to put in a drawer.

01

Women you don't have to explain your ambition to.

A hand-selected circle + four months of private community access

Exchange ideas, ask for an honest perspective, and celebrate the steps other people might miss. Every application is personally reviewed for fit: meaningful goals, a generous outlook, and a willingness to show up for yourself and each other.

02

Coaching with space to put it to work.

8 live group sessions · 2 per month

One 75-minute goal-and-habit workshop, plus one 60-minute coaching circle each month. Get direction, work through sticking points, and learn from the women beside you. Opening and closing sessions are included in these eight.

03

Your plan. Fresh eyes on it.

A personal goal-and-habit map + feedback from your circle

Build your plan with guided prompts, then share it with like-minded women in the workshop. Get thoughtful questions, honest feedback, and ideas you may not have considered. Choose what fits, refine your next steps, and connect them to a small daily practice.

04

Tiny habits. Something to build on.

Microhabit practice cards + a simple tracker

Give your habit a cue, a two-minute starting version, and a place to record each attempt. Practice, notice what gets in the way, and adjust—without making a perfect streak the goal.

05

A little “how did it go?”

Optional accountability partner + peer check-in prompts

Share what you're working on, ask for a nudge, and return the favor. Arrange a check-in or work alongside another member when it suits you. These are peer-led, not extra required coaching calls.

06

A way back when life happens.

Weekly self-review, reset guide + next 90-day plan

Keep what's helping. Shrink what's too much. Use the closing group session to review your progress and choose the habits and next steps you'll carry forward.

What does a microhabit look like?

Small enough to start. Connected to your goal.

After my morning coffee, I'll open my project and work on the next step for two minutes. You can keep going. On a busy day, practice starting. Pair that with a short weekly review: what worked, what got in the way, what changes next?

Two live sessions a month. The practice happens in your life. Between sessions, use the tools and optional peer support at your own pace. Coach feedback is provided in the scheduled sessions; this is not ongoing one-to-one messaging.

November through February

Set it. Claim it.
Keep showing up for it.

Move your goal forward while practicing the habits that support it. A clear next step. A way to restart. People to share it with.

NOVEMBER

Claim your goal.

Build your plan, get feedback from your circle, and choose a meaningful milestone. Attach your first microhabit to something you already do.

DECEMBER

Make starting easier.

Practice the small version, remove a source of friction, and make your next visible move—even in a busy month.

JANUARY

Learn how to return.

Use a weekly review, get perspective from your peers, and restart after interruptions without reinventing the whole plan.

FEBRUARY

Take it with you.

Review your milestone, keep the habits that helped, and leave with a personal next-90-days plan and ways to continue the connections you've made.

Women who get it.
And want you to go for it.

Bring your plan before it's perfect. Talk it through with women who share your drive, hear their ideas, and offer yours. This circle is selected for shared ambition, mutual respect, and the willingness to contribute—not matching job titles.

Theresa Delano
Hi, I'm Theresa

Let's get specific about what you want.

My background is in strategy, marketing, business development, and leading people. What I bring here is practical: helping you sort the options, make a decision, and turn it into a next step.

I'll ask questions, help you troubleshoot, and come back to what you said matters. You make the choices and do the work. You don't have to figure it all out alone.

Questions, answered

Before you apply.

What does hand-selected mean?

Theresa personally reviews applications and discusses fit before enrollment. We look for women with a meaningful goal, a willingness to participate, and respect for other members' perspectives and privacy. Everyone is expected to contribute, not simply collect contacts. No seat is reserved by preparing an application.

How often do we meet—and is this one-to-one coaching?

This is a group intensive: two coach-led sessions per month, eight total. Each month includes a 75-minute workshop and a 60-minute coaching circle. Kickoff and the closing review are included in the eight sessions. Private coaching appointments and ongoing direct-message coaching are not included. Optional peer check-ins are arranged by members.

When does it start?

The program begins November 1, 2026, and runs through February 2027. We meet on the first and third Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m. Central (America/Chicago). Workshops last 75 minutes; coaching circles last 60 minutes. The kickoff and closing sessions are included in the eight sessions below.

  • November 4, 2026 · Kickoff workshop · 7:00–8:15 p.m.
  • November 18, 2026 · Coaching circle · 7:00–8:00 p.m.
  • December 2, 2026 · Workshop · 7:00–8:15 p.m.
  • December 16, 2026 · Coaching circle · 7:00–8:00 p.m.
  • January 6, 2027 · Workshop · 7:00–8:15 p.m.
  • January 20, 2027 · Coaching circle · 7:00–8:00 p.m.
  • February 3, 2027 · Workshop · 7:00–8:15 p.m.
  • February 17, 2027 · Closing coaching circle · 7:00–8:00 p.m.

All times are Central Standard Time.

Do I need my exact goal figured out?

No. Bring a direction: a career move, a health habit, a race, a business idea, a savings goal, or something that brings you joy. We'll discuss fit first. Then you'll build your plan through the intake and workshop, get feedback from the group, and choose your starting habit. Health and savings goals focus on everyday actions and accountability, not medical or financial advice.

What if I tend to start and stall?

That's where your community comes in. Talk through what's keeping you stuck, hear a different perspective, and let like-minded women encourage you and help hold you accountable. With fresh ideas, small next steps, and women rooting for you, you have support to restart, keep growing, and thrive.

What if I have a bad week?

Use the reset guide to shrink your next action and return to the practice. Ask your peer partner for a check-in, or bring the sticking point to the next coaching circle. A missed week doesn't mean starting the entire program over.

Can you guarantee I'll reach my goal?

No. Promotions, revenue, and other people's decisions can't be promised. You receive the coaching and support described here; progress depends on your actions, circumstances, and chosen goal.

What happens before I pay?

We discuss your goal and fit, then confirm session dates, attendance expectations, payment terms, and cancellation terms before you decide to enroll.

How do payments and refunds work?

Pay $1,600 in full, or choose four monthly payments of $425 ($1,700 total). The first installment is due at enrollment, followed by three automatic monthly payments.

A full refund is available if you cancel before the program begins on November 1, 2026. After the program begins, there are no refunds unless Theresa cancels the program. The refund details for that exception will be confirmed before enrollment. Missed sessions do not reduce the price.
