Kickstart your business ...
Running your own business is amazing – it allows you to shine at what you do best. But let's be honest, doing everything on your own feels tremendously overwhelming sometimes.
The good news is – you don't have to be alone any longer...!
The 2025 Mastermind is designed to help you fast track your business to the next level.


What is it?
The Mastermind is a six-week online group programme designed to support you in the growth of your business, consisting of 3-hour sessions, once a week. It is run by myself, Jo Ferrone, founder of the How DOES She Do It?! business community.
Why join the Mastermind programme?
The daily challenges of running your own business can feel overwhelming: making all the decisions, choosing which ideas to put into action, wearing all the hats and facing setbacks alone. You know you need support, accountability and fresh perspectives, but who else is really going to ‘get it’?
That's where the Mastermind comes into its own. In this six week programme, you'll be enriched by an inspiring group of women who will become your business cheerleaders, accountability partners and lifelong supporters. Together, we'll tackle the key areas holding your business back, whilst building the confidence and connections enabling you to thrive.


This is perfect for you if you're a female in business who...
"As someone who rarely invests financially in my own business, being part of Jo's Mastermind was an excellent decision, not just professionally but personally too.
Being matched and working alongside other women in business enabled me to share, learn and bounce ideas about how to grow my business in a variety of different ways.
I have come away with a group of friends who I can continue to lean on when I have concerns or run new ideas past them."

Integration & Moving Forward
As our journey concludes, this final week focusses on your continued success beyond the programme.

"If you are a new business owner just needing that little nudge to get started and become more visible - or if you are established in your business but feel that you could do with renewed energy, motivation and direction - this Mastermind is your answer!
Getting to tap into the power of females getting together - and leaning into a network of people who've got your back and help you see your own blind spots and what's available to you, is invaluable.
I can highly recommend this Mastermind to help you step into your own vision of your business."

What if I can't attend all the sessions, and can I get a refund if the programme isn't right for me?
The programme is designed for maximum benefit through weekly attendance, but you'll still gain substantial value even if you can't make every session.
