Thought Partnership + Mindful Marketing

MaggieGentry-work-with-me.jpg

You know that big idea you've been holding onto, unsure of how to make it real?

Through our work together, not only will we make sense of what might feel like a mental mess, we will also take those first steps together in making it real.

Thought Partnership is that bridge between your vision and reality, between the WHAT and the HOW. This is how you finally get over that rift between the idea and the execution!

What is a thought partner anyway?

A thought partner is someone who challenges your thinking in such a way that it generates value for you in your life and business. I’ve intentionally given the work I do a broad title because it does encapsulate a few seemingly dichotomous facets. On one hand, I have a mathematician's mind, and yet I approach every situation with a healer’s heart. It’s my deepest wish to meet you—exactly where you are—and help elevate you, your message, and your systems so that you may expand your capacity to share your gifts with the world. I’ll be a partner who is equally invested in your business, who can dream big with you and then work alongside you to make those dreams real. I will hold your vision for the future as fiercely as if it is my own, and I will also encourage you to take action so that this vision of yours becomes reality. Because we need more people in this world who are leading with their hearts.

FAQs

What happens after a Shift Session or a Mindful Marketing Working Session?

After a Shift Session, I'll send you a copy of the notes I took on our call, along with any resources I promised to share with you. From there, my inbox will be open to you for 2 more weeks where you may continue to ask questions and keep the conversation alive to ensure the questions you brought to the session are fully answered.

After a Mindful Marketing Working Session, I'll send you a copy of the notes I took, along with any resources I promised to share with you. Since this is a little more in-depth and often includes me creating something for you, this can generally take 1-2 days for me to deliver. From there, you have 2 more weeks to connect with me via email and Voxer so that we may keep the conversation alive and resolve any outstanding questions. After 2 weeks have passed, we connect again for one more 30-minute follow-up call to explore any final questions and ensure you feel confident about your next steps.

Who can benefit most from each of the offerings?

Shift Sessions are great if you have a specific question or two and appreciate having someone outside of yourself who can help you see the larger picture that you're just too close to see with clarity on your own. Since they are pay-what-you're-able, they're also a lovely resource if other business coaching/consulting services are cost-prohibitive to you.

Mindful Marketing Working Sessions are most supportive for folx who have a more complex problem to solve or are curious about doing a proper audit of their entire business. It's also best suited for business owners who have big visions but struggle to implement them. As a part of the deliverables, I support you in creating an action plan to help you cross that bridge between the idea and the execution.

What kind of result can I expect to see?

It's not very satisfying to say, "It depends," but it's true. To get a sense of how this has been supportive to some of my past clients, feel free to read through some of the Client Spotlights. The people who I've found that get the most out of either of these offerings are those that come in with clear intentions and fully utilize the opportunity to connect with me after the initial call concludes. As someone who needs to sleep on things and let things marinate, I cherish the time after that initial session to allow more things to come into focus at a softer pace.

I know you're a lover of solo business retreats. Could I book either of these for my own business retreat?

Oh heck YES! And love that you thought of this. Honestly, either of these would be great to schedule on or around your retreat. Since both come with 2 weeks of support after the session, we could do the session on retreat and then the 2 weeks after to help you integrate once you're back into the everyday groove. Or... we could also do the session in advance to help you craft your retreat agenda, and then let your retreat fall somewhere within that 2-week window of additional support. These are flexible, and you get to create the structure that would be most supportive to you!

 
 

Here is what I know to be true

We are human beings sharing our stories with other human beings, with the intention that those stories resonate with someone else out there. At its core, that's a soulful connection.

We are creative creatures who have egos, dislike uncertainty, and love creating plans as a way to assert some semblance of control over that uncertainty. But too much planning results in rigidity, stagnation, and disconnect.

So as I consider how much codification is permissible while still allowing for a sincere human connection, I find an unsatisfying answer—it depends.

And therein lies the magic. ✨

I believe the only "formula" then is to establish some predetermined checkpoints along the path. As you arrive at each one, the main inquiry is: How can I share more of this story in such a way that anchors me in the ground of my being?

From there you decide to proceed, halt, or alter.

It's a constant inquiry, a perpetual evolution, an ongoing conversation.

Not at all predictable, but utterly life-changing.

Are you ready to organize your business around your soul?

If you’re feeling a yes, but not quite sure where to start, let’s be sure to connect and see if we might be a fit.

Testimonials
Em Huckstep

Working with Maggie was exactly what I needed at a time when I felt lost, afraid, and uncertain. I came to her feeling very confused about the direction of my business, and lacking a lot of self-belief. She helped me find clarity and direction and encouraged me to keep connecting back to myself and my own version of success. From practical work like messaging and offer suite development to the nontangible conversations and work on elements like self-belief and confidence, I highly valued Maggie's insight, wisdom, and input. I would 100% recommend working with Maggie.

Cara Steinman

As someone who has big ideas but not a lot of follow thru or execution, Maggie was a godsend. She was able to help me envision where I wanted to go, gave me kind and logical feedback, then put together a roadmap that made it easy to get my idea from inside my head out into the world where it could actually make a difference.

- Cara Steinmann, Founder, RAVEL Collective

Amelia Hruby

I knew I wanted to work with Maggie the moment I saw she called herself a thought partner rather than a coach or an expert. Our sessions were the perfect blend of strategic and heart-centered. Maggie helped me connect with my big picture vision for my business while also reminding me to tend to my energetic capacity. She was invaluable during a time of lots of growth for my company, and I highly recommend working with her!

- Amelia Hruby, owner of Softer Sounds

Maggie Dimmick

Working with Maggie was such a delight. She helped me get to the core of what I care about and what’s really behind my purpose in the work that I do. There's now a synergy between what’s in my mind/heart and the actual messaging we deliver to our audience. I love how working with her has helped bring more concise smoothness to our message with carefully chosen words, with our Why leading the way.

She helped us pursue new projects I’ve been thinking about for a while but haven’t had the resources or expertise to bring them into fruition. Maggie is incredibly intentional, authentic, organized, and supportive. I can't recommend Maggie enough!

- Maggie Dimmick, owner of Ethel Studio

Mel Drake

Working with Maggie was amazing. Maggie listened and offered very valuable suggestions. She was patient and kept the lines of communication open at all times. I was never left wondering or guessing at any time during our work together. "HELL, YES!" I would feel more than comfortable referring her to my friends, family and colleagues.

Angie Wheeler

Working with Maggie Gentry has been truly transformational for me. She supported me in a way I didn’t realize I needed and that I would have never thought was even available to me.

I had been procrastinating a project that was really important to me for over a year and with Maggie leading the charge I was finally able to get that project done and launched in just a few short weeks. Really.

Maggie is an amazing and magical partner to have in your corner: so sharp and so skillful, and all heart.

— Angie Wheeler, Founder, Takeaway

Rachael Holman

I only wish I had a rooftop from which to sing Maggie's praises! She absolutely has the skills, expertise, and experience to bring your vision beautifully to life -- but the true value she brings is in her ability to build a strong, trusted partnership.

At every step of the process, Maggie invested in deepening her understanding of my motivations, my goals, and my needs, and from there, tailored her process to deliver exactly what I needed at exactly the right time. She's a joy and a pleasure to partner with, and someone I would be delighted to both recommend and partner with again.

Amber Ellis

Working with Maggie combines the beautiful magic of sacred intentionality, deep intuition, genuine curiosity, and strategic clarity.

As a creative business owner who leads from her heart, it's important to have someone relate deeply on that front but also to support me in the places I find myself blind to. Maggie has a very special way of connecting dots and creating structure to my creative flow that is so incredibly rare and needed. She has helped to me to ready and launch many projects.

But even outside of our work together, she offers so much beauty and wisdom to the world. Working with Maggie and being in her presence, know you will be held. That you will be supported and deeply seen. As a business owner and a human being.

Pippa Campbell

The greatest revelation I had while working with Maggie is knowing that I had found the right person to look at my business holistically. I had often used people for different jobs, and I don’t think that these were often the right people. Often the wrong systems were recommended, and they did not integrate well with my business processes. I now feel confident that all my business processes will work well together and that everything Maggie has chosen is the best thing for me. I just feel relieved that I can completely hand this over to someone who knows what she is doing and is the best in her field. I trust her completely!

David Lauterstein

At my first meeting with Maggie, I was almost immediately convinced that she was extremely genuine.  She showed an interest not merely in my success, but also in me being happy and fulfilled spiritually and professionally in my work and in our work together.  It was inspiring to work with her. Each time we met, she had a kind of effortless and elegant way of getting to the essence of the particular issues or tasks we faced. Maggie, compared to many people I’ve worked with, is entirely client-centered, not self-centered.
