CLIENT EXPERIENCE

From Survival to Expansion

“I feel so much lighter, and it's allowed me to expand into projects that are allowing my business to expand versus merely survive. I've doubled and tripled my monthly sales goals since working with her, and we've only just begun.”

— Michelle N-M
Founder, M. Hisae

Begin With Clarity

If your business feels scattered, reactive, or constrained, it is not a motivation problem.

It’s a structural one.

Curious Visionary® Monthly Business Strategy is a strategic partnership designed to help you refine positioning, complete high-impact projects, and build sustainable systems that support your growth.

This is not generic coaching.
It is hands-on, co-creative execution.

Working with Michelle from M. Hisae

Checking in with a past client: *

  • Feelings

    Zoë: How has your day to day business been feeling since working with me?

    Michelle: “Fluid, creative, and up leveled.”

  • Practices

    Zoë: Are there any solid practices you have in place that came from our collaboration?

    Michelle: “Email marketing!! Zoë created an invaluable structure and strategy for my email marketing that has pushed my sales into the next bracket. She understands that delicate balance of weaving in tried-and-true marketing strategies that work within the brand voice. I'm most excited about the automated email series we setup - I'm communicating with customers weekly without the stress of having to come up with new content over and over.”

  • Results

    Zoë: Has anything important happened as a result of us working together?

    Michelle: “A huge shift that came from working together is how much more care I have for my customer's experience, beyond a great product.

    Before, I assumed that if I met the baseline standards of customer service, I was doing enough. I also thought that investing more into their experiences would require a ton of work on my part, which I didn't have the bandwidth for at the time.

    Zoë shifted that for me - she showed me how the power of communication, even small tweaks, can create less work for me while simultaneously making the customer feel cared for, excited to purchase, and in the loop.

    Our work together revealed how deeply I care about my customers, and my business has flourished as a result.”

  • Experience

    Zoë: Can you touch on our work together in a holistic sense, spiritually etc. ?

    Michelle: “Zoë speaks, leads, and co-creates with love and calm, and that's felt in each and every meeting.

    If I presented an issue I was experiencing in life or business, she had this magical ability to see beyond my stress, find its root, and create practical solutions for now and future.

    It can be really hard to see things from a wide lens as a small business owner. But doing this enough times with her, I developed the muscle to do it on my own.

    I can't tell you how many times that's saved me from saying yes to things that I knew confidently were a no, for the health of myself and my business.”

  • Improvements

    Zoë: Is there anything you would have liked more clarity around or something you would have wanted to change about our co creation?

    Michelle: “I wish it was in person :) “

    Zoe also skillfully handled vendor negotiations, saving costs and securing the best solutions. Her technical skills, creativity, and initiative left a lasting, positive impact on our organization. “

    — Dave Mosley
    Founder, Delaware Center for Homeless Veterans

  • “Zoë shined a whole new light on my business. She reoriented me toward what I do best and found solutions, easy ones, for the things I didn't need to be spending time on. I feel so much lighter, and it's allowed me to expand into projects that are allowing my business to expand versus merely survive. I've doubled and tripled my monthly sales goals since working with her, and we've only just begun.”

    — Michelle N-M
    Founder, M. Hisae

  • “Working with Zoë was a breath of fresh air because there was ample space for me to be a person with her, not just a business following a bunch of predetermined rules. She helped give me the permission I needed to act decisively on behalf of my vision, rather than looking outwardly. Her coaching and business insights were approachable and emphasized ease and building the life I want for myself.”

    — Kate Ellen
    Founder, Crown Nine Jewelry

  • “Zoë’s quick expertise can quickly convey authority and credibility to organizations seeking to scale and grow. Her work to develop strong public-facing web design and other collateral has been crucial for the launch of my org.”

    — Joe Britton
    Founder, Pioneer Public Affairs

  • “It was so smooth! You made it super organized and easy for me to understand. I knew I was making an investment but I never expected how good it would feel to see my site so elevated. I would honestly recommend it to anyone who’s ready to grow their business. I also felt super prepared to take over the website when our time was up. Overall you made the process feel really accessible and I felt so supported along the way.”

    — Clare Parks
    Founder, Nature + Nurture Doula and Herbal Care

  • “Zoë is a gift to the world. Her ability to see the world through lenses besides her own means that a session with her might be the first time you’ve ever felt genuinely seen, and genuinely understood - a.k.a. the end of you, alone vs. the world. She’s a formidable businesswoman with limitless creative vision and creates a practical, step-by-step path through the most daunting of obstacles.”

    — Onami

  • “Your wise contemplations, existential humor and supportive reflections have been incredibly valuable on my path as a woman and creative. I always walk away from our spaces feeling confident and inspired to honor my own inner guidance and grateful for a positive sounding board and friend.”

    — Monica G.

  • “Before our call, I felt stuck and was having trouble figuring out my next steps. While speaking with Zoë, she was able to help me visualize and better understand my path to success. Her Strategy Assessment of me allowed me to regain the confidence I feel I had lost in myself and my abilities over the last few years. Thank you so much for your time and help. I definitely recommend booking a session with Zoë, you won’t regret it!”

    — Lyl R.

  • “ Zoë I absolutely loved this session! I was able to take my very nebulous ideas to you and you created structure around them that I needed to get going. When I have a session with you I truly believe it is possible to do what I love and be energetically supported for it. I am super excited about the steps we created to bring more flow into my business. Thank you!!”

    — Clare P.

  • “Zoë brought my vision to life and truly honored the process. With careful attention to detail and a genuine understanding of my passions and purpose, Zoë was able to help introduce me to myself in the final product. The experience was a true joy!!”

    — Dr. Nia Nunn

  • “The website that Zoë created when we worked together has gone on to house additional pages for Paulo Redeem’s portfolio and line sheet, which were core materials for our application to the 2021 Amiri Prize, for which Paulo Redeem is the inaugural winner of the fashion incubator.”

    — NaaAmerley Badger

  • “Zoë gave me the confidence I needed to start my own website and simplify my business offerings directly from my website. Zoë introduced me to various programs that I knew nothing of that I now use almost daily for all my design, email marketing, website design and management needs. Her knowledge is spot on, her delivery is approachable and clear. She is a gem.”

    — Olivia Rivard Hill

  • “Zoë is the absolute best! My website started as a single-page summary of services and my phone number. Zoë revamped my website and I now have a fully interactive and dynamic site that truly reflects who I am as a business owner and the ways I can support my customers. After the site launched, I was receiving more traffic than ever before and clients signed up for services through the various funnels on my website. I’ll never go to another person for website design and refer other solo-preneurs and small business owners to sign on with Zoë.“

    — Dr. Cammy Froude
