You’ll feel clearer about the purpose and direction of your business again, while gaining the confidence to connect with those who need what you do.

Systems & Processes


We’ll review your current systems and processes and see what tweaks you can make so you can work smarter, not harder in your business.

Kind Words

I appreciate that Portia is so client-centered. She allowed me to focus on what was important to me each session and tailored the conversation to my needs. Anytime I fell short of my own goals, or considered changing my timelines, I was always met with her encouragement and acceptance which helped me to have more grace with myself.

Portia is very easy to talk to and she provides a good balance of accountability and encouragement. She creates an atmosphere in which it feels safe to explore ideas and challenges in a constructive way.

My confidence was definitely lower before we started our sessions. I felt like I was pouring so much time into my business, and not seeing the returns I hoped for. But I have a healthier perspective on my business now. I still set goals and believe in accountability, but I’m also giving myself the grace to say that it’s okay if I need to change my priorities/goals/timelines along the way.

Portia is friendly, encouraging, and a great listener. If you’re looking for some direction in your business, or some mentoring along the way, I would definitely recommend her!

Career & Life Coach

This Journey is Right for You If. . .

You’re an introvert or gentle soul navigating through a noisy world (with everyone telling you what you "should" be doing), and your yearning to be seen, heard and acknowledged as you build your business on your terms.

You want a one-on-one coaching experience that's aligned, flexible and tailored to YOUR needs and business vision, not a one-size-fits-all framework.

You're ready to stop letting perfectionism or imposter complex hold you back from stepping up and moving your business forward.

You're excited to love your business back by investing in the support and guidance you need to keep you motivated and accountable to your goals.

You’re shifting or transforming your business (and feel lost, confused, alone, or unsure of what to do next), yet you're eager to reclaim your time, boundaries, power and confidence.

You question or second-guess your ideas and next steps, yet you know you want to feel focused, grounded and joyous about your offers, content, connection plan, etc.

You want to run a socially conscious business that gives back and makes a difference in the world, and you’re ready to shape your business around your values and truths.

You know in the depths of your soul that your business is an extension of your elevated self, and you’re willing to trust your intuition and the process to see what happens.

But This Journey Isn't For. . .

🚫 Those who aren’t willing to dedicate the time it takes to grow and transform.

🚫 Those who are resistant to change, new ideas and challenges.

🚫 Those who don’t believe in doing the work (aka the action steps or assignments) along the way.

🚫 Those who want a framework or a coach to tell them exactly what to do and when.

🚫 Those who just don’t feel excited to embark on this journey together.

Ready to make things happen?

Let’s make it magical, empowered and easeful along the way.

Hi, I'm Portia.

Why choose me as your coach? Because I wholeheartedly believe in you and the business vision you want to bring to life. 

No matter what challenges you’re going through right now, I’m here to support you as you discover new possibilities, experiment with offers or content strategies, and so much more.

As your business coach and creative mentor, I’ll guide you through the messy, magical avenues of your business ecosystem (with you leading the way of course!) Because you don’t have to do it alone or stay stuck in the realm of uncertainty.

Together in Empowered Ease, we’ll sift through your brilliant ideas, discover your next best steps, and create doable goals—all while taking intentional, imperfect and inspired action.

Coaching Sessions

Our remaining sessions (6 x 60 minutes) will happen every two weeks over the course of three months. We’ll dive into your progress, explore your challenges, and create new intentional action steps so you’re moving towards the life and business you want to lead.

Creative Exercises

To boost your inspiration and motivation, you’ll receive custom worksheets, journal prompts, and other creative exercises as needed.

Copy Bonus

With over 10+ years of creative writing, journalism, and copywriting experience, I’ll review the copy on your website, landing page, or any other content you’ve created (as needed during our coaching experience).

Kind Words

I loved working with Portia. When I found her, I was struggling with fatigue, no time and not making art. I was in the middle of renovations and moving during Covid and it was all a lot to handle.

Portia helped me put things into perspective and realize that the challenges are normal. It was so relaxing to talk with her and share my struggles, while gaining a kind perspective from someone who understands what I’m going through. It felt like talking to a friend.

Portia is such a kind and wise soul—exactly what you need when going through challenging times and making your mind work with you and the way you flow in life. There’s no rush with her, things get done in a way that feels just right. 

The biggest insight I gained was that we gotta give ourselves more credit for the way we’re overcoming challenges. Sometimes they feel trivial when they’re actually impacting our life in ways we don’t quite realize. 

After our call I chilled back in life, taking my time and made taking care of myself and resting plenty a priority. Now I have my priorities in check, meaning I have time for everything I choose to do and am making art consistently! I’m super happy I decided to reach out for Portia’s help.

Kind Words

Portia does great work—she’s very accurate and with all her insights and encouragements she makes the process more light and fun. 

Before working with Portia, I hesitated to be visible and to talk about my knowledge and the method’s I use to help people. In our sessions, it was wonderful to have a space to speak about the hesitations and worries, then listening to the answers that I had in me and to plan out the next steps. It was also wonderful in between the sessions to know that I have an accountability partner and the chance to talk about the struggles that were going on.

The biggest transformation is that I started to notice and appreciate my work and progress more. I know my audience better than before. I also became more confident and willing to create content and to get it out there. I have the tendency to make myself smaller than I am, and I learned to play bigger and to be more relaxed.

Thank you so much Portia! It was wonderful to be able to advance in my business with you. I’m very grateful for this bit of our journey together!

FAQ's

Coaching helps you get from where you are now, to where you want to be in your life or business. As your business coach, we’ll focus on the present and figuring out your next, best steps toward the future biz you envision. 

Together, I’ll guide you every step of the way while you discover and tap into your own inner wisdom, strength and courage. Because deep down, you already know what’s best for you. You already have all the answers. Sometimes, all it takes is someone (like me!) to help you see them.

Therapy on the other hand, leans more towards the medical side where therapists, psychologists, or counsellors, will dive into someone’s past experiences, trauma, or mental health to help them gain clarity and move forward.

I’m in my 30’s now with plenty of life experiences gained from:

  • Graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing & Journalism.
  • Working on projects in many creative fields including: copywriting, social media, branding &  graphic design, web design, news & content writing, screenwriting, film, photography, abstract art, and more.
  • Learning and travelling to over 25+ countries.
  • Working full-time at a non-profit for 5 years as a communications specialist, while side-hustling as a freelance writer at the same time.
  • Quitting my job to run multiple businesses for 3+ years now.
  • Becoming certified as a life & business coach through the Universal Coach Institute.

Yes! If you choose a monthly payment plan, I’ll send an invoice at the beginning or end of each month (with no added interest, of course!)

Progress and growth takes time, and the sweet spot is committing to something for at least three months. But I understand if the timeline doesn’t work for you right now. And you’re in luck!

I offer breakthrough Creative Clarity Calls—super focused strategy sessions with in-depth guidance on something you’d LOVE forward momentum on (like refining your sales page copy, setting up business systems or processes, gaining clarity on your services/offers, client attraction strategies, clearing creative blocks, etc.) 

What you get:

  • 1 x 90 minute session
  • Unlimited email support for 1 week
  • Summary of notes and a copy of the audio recording
  • A new plan of action, knowledge and the motivation to start taking inspired action again
  • Cost: $449 USD

Contact me here if you’d like to book a single Creative Clarity Call!

Due to the nature of my work, refunds are not provided. But if you decide to have a change of heart, you’ll get a full refund if you cancel before our first initial session. You’ll also be able to reschedule up to three sessions in case something unexpected happens.

To be honest and upfront, there’s no guarantee you’ll make $87,423.98 next month after our Empowered Ease journey together. The results you achieve depend on the work and actions you put into this process. 

But if you’re ready for a change, and know in your heart that you want to transform your business and how you run it, then what do you have to lose?

Time and money of course, but where would you rather be three months from now? Stuck where you are right now, or making consistent progress with your business goals 😊
