LEAP = Leverage Experience, Act with Purpose.

You didn't spend decades building expertise to leave it all behind. You're here to put it to work.

This is for you if...

  • ✓ You have a clear idea — maybe even a full plan in a document somewhere — and you keep opening it and closing it without moving

    You have a clear idea, a fully documented plan, and you keep opening it and closing it without moving forward.

  • ✓ You are done doing this alone but also terrified to ask for help (we see you, and it makes complete sense)

    You are done doing this alone but also terrified to ask for help (we see you, and it makes complete sense).

  • ✓ You have the financial runway to build this right and the hunger to actually do it

    You have the financial runway to build this right and the hunger to actually do it.

  • You want a strong consultant to guide you.

    You want someone who will tell you the truth, challenge your thinking, and build this with you. Not a sideline cheerleader.

Not a course. Not a cheerleading squad. Something better.

What building with us actually looks like…

Live Working Sessions

Twice a month, we work. Not watch. Not listen. Work. You bring your challenge, your draft, your stuck point; and you leave with a plan and accountability for what comes next.

  • Game Changer

    Within my first few weeks in BoldLEAP, I had better conversations with potential clients than I'd had in months of going it alone. The branding and presence feedback alone changed how people responded to me. This is not a cheerleader community. And through the support of this amazing community, I've been able to do real work that will bring my business to the next level.

  • Accountability - just what I needed.

    Even though I am a week late “getting it done,”

    I am inspired to keep going when roadblocks show up.

  • Y'all are creating a wonderful environment to nurture and grow female business owners

    This directly aligns with my business as reflected in my Statement of Purpose: "My purpose in this life is to uplift and empower women, guiding them to build and sustain wealth while embracing their affluence. By doing so, they not only transform their own lives but also enrich their families and contribute positively to the universe!

    - Donna C., Knowledge Partner

  • At a crossroads...

    I came in post-corporate, not sure if I was going back or going forward. BoldLEAP gave me the clarity to stop considering and start building. I know my why now — and I know my next move.

  • Affirming Invaluable Space

    BoldLEAP has been an affirming, invaluable space in my first 90 days as a business owner. From expert advice to peer connection, it’s helped me grow with clarity and confidence. What I love most is the culture—generous, uplifting, and rooted in paying it forward. I often say I’m a newbie in the business gym, building my form. With BoldLEAP Collective - their support and positive peer reinforcement, I know I’ll keep leveling up.

  • ...coaching to sharpen and sustain my impact,

    BoldLEAP offers a strong framework to elevate my advisory work: coaching to sharpen and sustain my impact, a community of peers who “get it,” visibility to boost my practice, and a platform to share my financial expertise. All grounded in my drive to empower others.

    - Donna Cates, Independent Financial Advisor

  • I've already made recommendations and look forward to being a part of the community!

  • Surrounded by other smart and driven women

    Building your own business can be exciting - but also isolating. So being surrounded by other smart and driven women who get it, is a must-have for me. With BoldLEAP Collective, I get a community of collective wisdom, a sounding board, an expanded network, and opportunities to collaborate in ways I had not thought of before. I’ve also had the opportunity to share my expertise and support other female founders along the way - and that's meaningful to me.

    - Rosaline Raj, Founder, Creative Chaos Communications

  • Impressive and inspiring

    Well done. Very clear and polished business communication.

  • Being a Knowledge Partner for BoldLEAP is one of the greatest honors...

    …not just because of the exchange of knowledge with incredibly accomplished women, but because the community is down to earth. I came from the corporate tech world (which gives one a slightly different perspective on business and life in general), which is why I suppose I also like this community so much, it feels like we all get each other. It’s a special feeling.

  • Propels solopreneurs to prosper joyfully

    Bold Leap Collective is an organization built on a heartfelt mission that propels solopreneurs to prosper joyfully.  And with the community, knowledge, and accountability opportunities it provides, BLC delivers! I have experienced this first-hand as a Knowledge Partner, a collaboration that empowers me and others to make an impact, while earning a platform to share our services with other Bold Leap members.

    I’ve learned important insights on branding, artificial intelligence, wealth management and other relevant topics from fellow Knowledge Partners with whom I intend to deepen my connection.  And I’m always uplifted by the authentic support, guidance and encouragement provided by Founders, Charissa Gant and Tammy Willey. Thank you ladies for the difference you are making for us and with us!
