FEARLESS FOCUS MASTERMIND AND MENTORING PROGRAM
Fearless Focus is a 6-month group mastermind and 1-on-1 creative business mentoring program for food photographers and food bloggers who are looking to increase their profit, create exceptionally beautiful photographs for dream clients and define and achieve their ambitious goals.
Ready to earn an
income doing what you love?
Eager to use Instagram in a way that’s impactful, thoughtful and strategic, rather than depleting and time consuming?
Keen to develop a food photography portfolio that will attract the right clients instead of brands that want the cheapest photographer possible?
Interested in figuring out your pricing, so that you can communicate your rates with confidence?
Looking for support in identifying your goals and creating a road map to help you achieve them?
How amazing would it be to have someone in the industry mentor you to this next chapter full of financial opportunities?
Imagine what could be possible if you combined your talent for food photography with a powerful creative business strategy!
In the Fearless Focus mastermind & mentorship program
YOU’RE EMPOWERED TO REACH YOUR FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY BUSINESS GOALS!
YOU DON’T HAVE TO DO THIS ALONE!
Maybe you have a supportive partner or incredible friends, but often they simply don’t get what it’s really like being your own boss - the ups, the downs, the decision fatigue, the wins! That’s where the support of creatives in your mastermind group comes into play!
They know exactly how you feel and are there to support you to aim higher, feel listened to and find solutions to any stumbling blocks you may encounter on your creative business journey!
PERMISSION TO PUT YOUR BUSINESS GOALS FIRST!
Got big dreams and ambitions, but unsure quite how to make them come true? Getting distracted or putting other demands before your business needs?
In the 1-on-1 sessions you’ll be empowered to find clarity, move forward with focus and identify a roadmap that will set you up for business success!
CAN WE TALK ABOUT MONEY?
Unsure how to price your services? Can’t shake the feeling you’re undercharging for your beautiful work?
Here’s the thing - pricing is HARD, partly because there is no one-size-fits-all formula, partly because there are so many doubts, fears and insecurities attached to pricing, know what I mean? Now the question is, are you open to delve deep, use the resources provided in this program to start allowing yourself to get paid what you deserve?
FIND MORE CLIENTS, THE RIGHT WAY
Perhaps you’ve pitched a number of brands, but haven’t heard back, even after following up with them - twice! Maybe you’ve worked so hard on your portfolio website, but still can’t land the clients you’re after? There is a different way…
Get guidance on how to enhance your portfolio to attract the clients you want, get feedback on your pitching strategy and learn a different way of marketing your services, so your dream clients find you!
STEP INTO YOUR ROLE AS CEO OF your FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY & FOOD BLOGGING BUSINESS!
Here’s what’s included in the 6-month Fearless Focus mastermind & 1-on-1 mentoring program…
✔ 12 90-MINUTE MONTHLY VIRTUAL MASTERMIND GROUP CALLS.
During out bi-weekly group mastermind calls I teach on a specific topic such as pricing, developing a strong social media strategy or working with brands and/or we have ‘hot seats’ where you will also have the opportunity to talk through a stumbling block you’ve encountered and get feedback, ideas and support from myself and your peers.
✔ 3 60-MINUTE MONTHLY VIRTUAL 1-ON-1 MENTORING SESSIONS.
You can use the 1-on-1 sessions in whatever way you’d find most helpful; this may include getting personalised feedback on your work, exploring how to manage any sense of self doubt or imposter syndrome, finally getting clarity on what you really want or developing an action plan that will help you meet your revenue goals.
✔ WEEKLY WHATSAPP OFFICE HOURS.
If you have a doubt or concern that’s stopping you from moving forward in between our virtual calls, there’s no need to hold on to these until our next session. Instead, you can leave quick voice notes and questions and get a response within 48 hours! That way you can get unstuck quicker and focus on your next actionable step!
✔ WEEKLY EMAIL SUPPORT.
Whether you want feedback on an email you received from a client, or you’d like me to provide you with constructive criticism on your brand new website copy, it can be done! You’re welcome to email weekly for support, accountability and a fresh perspective.
✔ ACCESS TO A PRIVATE FACEBOOK COMMUNITY GROUP.
Imagine having a community of like-minded, ambitious, supportive and talented creatives who hold you accountable and make you feel more confident and less alone on your creative business journey? The private Facebook community group offers just that, so you don’t feel alone in between our group calls.
✔ YEAR-LONG ACCESS TO REPLAYS OF THE GROUP CALLS.
Our online communicate portal will be a content library that contains all the recording of the group mastermind calls, meaning you can rewatch sessions at your heart’s content or catch up on group calls you’ve missed!
The 6 business topics we’ll cover during our group calls:
OUR GROUP MASTERMIND CALLS WILL LAST APPROXIMATELY 90-120 MINUTES DURING WHICH I’LL TEACH ON THE TOPICS OUTLINED BELOW.

A high touch, high support 6-month close knit and intimate mastermind and 1-on-1 creative business mentoring program like this one is an investment of time, energy and money. It’s also an incredible opportunity to put your growth and the growth of your creative business front and centre, to break through glass ceilings and push through income barriers!
My question to you is, why not give your food photography or food blogging business the support structure needed to thrive like never before? Why not see what’s possible when you receive clear guidance and in depth teaching on how to earn a really good income doing what you love? Why not experience what can happen when you surround yourself with a mentor and peers who believe in you and continuously reassure you that you are capable of all the things you dream of (even when you doubt yourself)? Why not create this opportunity for yourself?
WHO IS THE FEARLESS FOCUS MASTERMIND PROGRAM FOR?
✔ You’re a food photographer or food blogger already working part- or full-time in the industry or well on your way to doing so!
✔ You have experience working with clients and/or brands, but are now looking to increase your income, attract better and more clients as well as take on challenging, interesting and exciting work projects.
✔ You’re open to new ideas and new ways of approaching your creative business. You don’t know everything yet, but are curious to learn from a mentor as well as your peers!
✔ You’re excited to share your knowledge and experience in the group mastermind calls and to contribute to your peers’ learning opportunities in the same way that they are to contributing to yours.
✔ Your determination to put your learning into action is palpable, yet you are realistic about the time and commitment required to obtain the business results you aspire to achieve.
✔ Like most creatives, you’re busy doing all the things, but you’re determined to carve out space for your growth and the evolution of your business.
✔ You are available for a 15-minute interview and happy to complete a short application form to ascertain that this mastermind program is indeed the right fit for you.
WHO IS THE FEARLESS FOCUS MASTERMIND NOT FOR…
✖ You have no ambitions right now to do food photography or food blogging professionally.
✖ You have not yet had the opportunity to work with clients or brands in your role as a food photographer or food blogger.
✖ You have read all the books, listened to all the podcasts and tried all the things and are doubtful that there is anything new to learn when it comes to running a creative business.
✖ Everything you do know, you keep close to your heart; you’re nervous and unsure about sharing your insights with ‘the competition’ in your mastermind group.
✖ You’re waiting for the ‘perfect’ time to start and are unsure when, if ever that moment will arrive.
✖ A 15-minute interview and application is something you’d love to do, but simply don’t have the time for right this moment.
HOW MANY CREATIVES CAN JOIN THE MASTERMIND?
The Fearless Focus mastermind and mentoring program is the only way to closely work with me on your creative food photography or food blogging business in 2022/23. It’s open for enrolment just twice a year and hence I’m committed to making this high touch, high impact program a special experience! That means that I want to be fully present for each and every mastermind member and I can only do that if I keep this group small and intimate. Hence, I can only make approximately 15 spots available for the Fearless Focus mastermind and mentoring program! Might one of those spots have your name on it?
Now, are you excited (and a touch nervous) to take the next step forward?
