Built on strategy, soul, and saying what needs to be said

The original version of this was born on January 29, 2020, in a mastermind Zoom room filled with big visions, big dreams, and zero flippin’ clue what was about to hit the world one month later.

Then… well, you know what happened.

So it sat — quietly, patiently — in a dusty “someday” folder on Google Drive.
I rediscovered this during a 2024 summer purge, gave it a glow-up, and still?
Still didn’t hit publish.

But now?
Now I feel possessed in the best possible way.

Maybe it’s the Generator in me.
Maybe it’s the astrology (Capricorn grit meets Sagittarius truth meets Gemini chaos).
Maybe it’s my rage and grief of watching brilliant women get sidelined, silenced, or burned out while trying to “do business right.”
Maybe it’s my perimenopause-fueled fire that has zero time for bullshit.

Honestly, it’s probably all of the above.

But here’s what I know:
It’s TIME.

It’s time for this to stop hiding.
It’s time for me — for us — to name what we stand for.
Loudly. Boldly. Unapologetically.

And it’s the heartbeat behind everything we do at Sprk’d.

LFG.

The Sprk’d Womanifesto

Business as Unusual.

I didn’t start Sprk’d to scale a marketing agency. I started it to survive.

Then I stayed in it to change things.

Because I’ve seen how the business world breaks people — especially women. How it burns us out. Gaslights our genius. Rewards complexity over clarity. Rewards hustle over health. And constantly makes us feel like we’re the problem if we don’t want to play by the rules.

I call bullshit.

Sprk’d is my rebellion.
It’s my love letter to the women I’ve coached, cried with, laughed with, and lifted up.

To the ones just like me who know they’re meant for more — but are done chasing it the old way.

This isn’t simply business, marketing, writing, publishing, workshops, course creation…

This is liberation.

Here’s what we believe:

⚡ Empowerment isn’t optional

We’re not here to outpace men. We’re here to outgrow the systems that hold everyone back. We help women redefine success on their terms and reclaim what’s always been theirs: power, peace, and paychecks with purpose.

⚡ Keep it simple. Make it work.

The most effective business strategies aren’t the fanciest… they’re the most aligned.
We use soul, systems, and science (especially neuroscience) to create business strategies and marketing that actually feels good — and works!

⚡ Truth-telling is a sales strategy

We don’t do gimmicks. We don’t do guru worship.

We help women say what they really mean, sell what they really believe in, and show up as their whole damn self. Because that’s what magnetizes high-value clients.

⚡ Our values walk with us

Everything we do is rooted in radical honesty, curiosity, collaboration, and intuition.
We’re not just checking DEI boxes, we’re rebuilding the damn table (and bringing seats).

⚡ Business is better in community

We don’t hustle in isolation.

We link arms. Celebrate wins. Talk mindset, money, and magic.

We’re building a circle where you don’t have to code-switch, over-explain, or shrink to fit.

⚡ Success = freedom

We believe success means working less.

Feeling more alive.

Owning your time, energy, and yes — your fucks to give.

⚡ The $1M Club, reimagined

Only 2% of women-owned businesses hit 7 figures. We’re here to change that — one soulful CEO at a time. Not through grind. Through guidance, groundedness, and growth that actually fits your life.

⚡ Loyalty is sacred

When you’re in our world, you’re protected.

We don’t compete. We co-create.

We don’t tear down. We bear witness, cheer wildly, and hold the vision when you forget.

⚡ Bold stances only

We’re feminist. Spiritual. Strategic. And tired of pretending those things can’t live in the same sentence. We believe love is love, Black lives matter, trans rights are human rights, and business can be a force for good.

⚡ We burn shit down, ethically

Old ways of marketing are dying — and we brought the matches.

Transparency > tactics. Resonance > reach. Impact > impressions.

Sprk’d isn’t just a business. It’s a portal.

For truth-tellers.
For change-makers.
For women ready to stop settling and start leading.

This is my mission.
This is my why.

Because I know what it’s like to play small.
To be underestimated.
To do everything fucking right and still feel behind.

And I also know what it’s like to feel the spark again and fan it into a wildfire.

Let’s burn down the bullshit.
Let’s build what we actually believe in.
Let’s Live a Sparked Life™.

Together.
