Black Swan Connect is a business community for female entrepreneurs, and women who are interested in starting their own business.

Running a business is flipping hard, and we could all use a little support, a sounding board, and some advice from people who’ve been there, done that. This group brings women together from around the world to network, support and learn from each other.

A ‘black swan’ is an event that’s unpredictable, surprising, and out of the ordinary – something that causes your life to take a different turn. I hope this group helps you to take the next exciting steps in your business!

Join us and join in – let’s have some fun while we take over the world!

My passion is ensuring everything about your company’s messaging is being broadcast at the highest caliber possible - the copy, the visual presentation, the grammatical structure, and of course the clarity and understanding of the message.

My specialty niche is assisting companies who are targeting the US market. Bearing in mind that not only is spelling completely different, so is the structure of 'business speak', the brevity of communication, and the 'get to the point' mindset in writing for the business context.

I help women who are fearful or unsure about upcoming surgery or medical events to prepare mentally, physically & spiritually every step of the way (pre, during & post surgery) so they can face the event with confidence and even excitement for a successful outcome.
As a Hope coach I help women who are stuck, lost, unmotivated or unsure of their next step, (often as a result of a disease or terminal illness diagnosis or life tragedy) to navigate the difficult situation and together we will create the route to get you back on track to where you always wanted & absolutely deserve to be in life, with Hope for the future!
