Why outdoors?

Pure, accelerated, distraction-free thinking and planning is best done outdoors.

Being outdoors, from just one day each month, fuels big-picture business and personal progression and growth immediately – and faster than any other approach we know.

Being outdoors is the best environment within which to pause, and think, clearly. About the clutter holding you back. And the opportunities passing you by.

    Jane is not your typical consultant; she’s a navigator who excels at unpicking the puzzle that stands between founders and their visions. With a keen eye for detail, she delves beneath the surface, going beyond the obvious to identify the often-unseen cracks that hinder progress.

  • Louise Demetriou, Founder & MD at Louise Demetriou Consultancy & Coaching

    I wanted my business to grow, so enlisted Jane’s consultancy support to help me define my strategy. With some outdoor thinking, we deep-dived to analyse all aspects of the business and systematically worked on the strategy, breaking it down into smaller chunks, whilst referring back to my vision and values to ensure it aligned.
