The Circle - Your Cyclical, Simple, System focused business
A 4 week coaching and teaching group programme for female solopreneurs, small business owners, multi-passionates and creatives
How would it feel to have sustainable systems and an approach in line with your energy - no more feast or famine - in your business and life.
Moving away from unsustainable, flat-out “busy” work and towards clarity, confidence, and sustainable energy in your work and life practices?
Discovering the transformative power of cyclical living (an explanation of this below if you’re new to it) in a way that feels relevant to your life and business?
Learning from an expert teacher about the different systems and strategies we can apply to goal setting in our business and life that actually work and are easily repeatable?
Trusting in the vision for your business and life, and knowing that freedom and space is yours to have?
Achieving ONE AMAZING THING in this programme, and knowing you have the tools, confidence and space to do the same time and time again?
The Circle isn’t a “one-size-fits all” methodology for your business and life. It combines a potent mix of knowledge acquisition (taught material), a profound understanding of yourself and your energy, and a highly supportive and accountable community lead by coach and teacher Laura Oldfield to prove that with the right understanding and support you can achieve amazing things.

I have felt so held and supported by Laura and the other women in the group. I really looked forward to our weekly group sessions and would definitely recommend this way of working to others looking for support and mutual understanding with business goals. The support, thoughtful guidance and accountability is so valuable and I’m carrying forward so much of what we discussed in the sessions and am so grateful to have utilised the opportunity.

Does this feel like you right now?
-
you started this business because you believed in yourself and in a better way of bringing what you had to offer to the world, but you’re totally confused by what you should be doing when and how
-
You started with a very clear vision, but you’ve lost it in the noise of every one else’s ideas and “advice”
-
Whilst you’ve got nothing against working instinctively, you feel like you’re winging it!
-
You feel like you know “self-care” is important, but you beat yourself up for being tired and not having enough time.
-
You worry that to reach your financial dreams you will burn out, or have to spend all your time hustling on social media
Hi, I’m Laura!
I live a life and run a business where all of my multi-faceted self is welcome, working with clients who want businesses that are sustainable, energy giving and in line with the rest of their lives.
I’ve been through the feast and famine cycle I know you want to avoid and helped my clients ensure they miss out this tricky part of building their portfolio of work.
I’ve successfully run two businesses while teaching in a secondary school and raising two beautiful children (with a third on the way).
I value my garden, music, Midsomer Murders and good coffee as much as my work (but adore what I do and am ambitious for success on my terms).
I worked with Laura over several months and it was a joy. I was after support, guidance, a sound board and generally help understanding what direction I was taking with my work. Laura has a magically way of seeing things differently and breaking them apart. She is practical, realistic and takes a very personal and holistic approach to what you are and where you are. She's also an all round lovely lady sprinkling her magic on the world.
— Kate Shirley - Wild Freedom, Seasonal Living, Forest School Leader
Before we go any further Laura, what exactly is cyclical living?
Cyclical living is an approach to life and your business that responds to the natural cycles that affect us: for many that’s menstrual; for all its lunar and seasonal.
If you don’t have a period (I’ve had clients who are menopausal, have PCOS, are breastfeeding or pregnant) then we examine the lunar cycle as an opportunity to organise your working routines and rhythms in a way that maximises your creative, mental, physical and savvy energy.
If you do menstruate we’ll examine how and when you show up, when you’re at your most exuberant, creative, reflective, organised…
And we’ll look at the seasons of selling and client acquisition alongside the four seasons.
You don’t have to be interested in the moon or astrology, or embrace a lot of the language around this (or you might love it), but you’ll be amazed and inspired by how much it teaches you about you and the way you run your business.
How will The Circle work, and what will happen?
By the end of the programme you will go from feeling:
Capable but confused, tired and indecisive to confident in your decisions and systems
Confident in your systems, knowing they will always work for your business
Know how to schedule your work and life around your energetic levels and commitments with ease
Know how to create goals and strategy that actually stick, in response to your energy in time
Understand why you feel tired and overwhelmed and how we can change that (mindset, environment and projects)
Not feel like you have to apologise for having multiple interests, but feel able to focus on what needs doing NOW, making business decisions easy and obvious
Over 4 weeks you will DO IT (see the DO IT model below)

Frequently Asked Questions
Am I the right kind of person for this?
If you are ready to plan, think, take action and get support over the next 3 weeks, to work with someone to give you accountability, support and warmth (oh yes and accountability again) then hell yes! It's not for you if you're not into accountability!
Who exactly is this for?
I work with solopreneurs and small business owners (cake designers, forest school founders, coaches, photographers, artists, musicians, mentors, online educators, multi-passionates and broad creatives). All of my clients want to stop feeling so tired, find clarity and confidence and build businesses that support their multi-faceted selves and are sustainably profitable.
Do I need to drop everything else for this process?
No! But you do need to commit to your ideas and the evolution of them if you want to see results with this process
What's your refund policy?
This process is non-refundable so consider your investment carefully, as I'm sure you will (and as I always do). That said, if your circumstances change I'm happy to work with you to move your investment to a better container/ time fit if that's what you need.
Is this going to be pure coaching?
No - because I'm teaching you for the first week and giving you very specific things to try. These six weeks bring with them a large element of teaching (why do you think I love this kind of day) - I help you problem solve but I also offer you tangible solutions!
I still have a question!
