Stop Spinning Plates and Start Building Your Empire: 1:1 Accountability Coaching for Solopreneurs

Feeling overwhelmed by opportunity, relationships, and a never-ending to-do list?

As a solopreneur, it's easy to get lost in the busy, neglecting what truly matters.

But what if you could do less, achieve more, and finally stop feeling like you're drowning in your own business?

You're not alone.

Running a solo business is incredible, but it can also be isolating and overwhelming. You wear all the hats, make all the decisions, and face all the challenges alone.

Are you a solopreneur drowning in a sea of to-dos? You know where to focus, but the overwhelm is crushing your motivation. You see the opportunities, but self-doubt whispers in your ear, holding you back. You've built a successful business, but you're burnt out and lonely, yearning for connection and support.


Sound familiar?

Do you:

  • Struggle to prioritize and focus on high-impact activities?

  • Feel constantly pulled in a million directions?

  • Wrestle with self-doubt and imposter syndrome?

  • Dream of a shorter to-do list and more free time?

  • Feel like your closest relationships are under pressure?

But what if you could:

  • Work less, achieve more: Learn to delegate, automate, and prioritize like a pro, freeing up your time and energy for what truly matters.

  • Conquer overwhelm: Develop systems and strategies to manage your time, energy, and attention effectively.

  • Transform your to-do list: Ditch the endless cycle of busy work and focus on small, consistent actions that deliver big results.

  • Focus on high-impact actions: Ditch the endless to-do list and laser-focus on the small, consistent actions that drive explosive growth.

  • Manage self-doubt and imposter syndrome: Silence the inner critic and build unshakeable confidence to conquer any challenge.

  • Build meaningful relationships: Reconnect with those around that haven’t been getting the best of you?

I’d recommend Grant for one simple reason. He’ll help you get where you want to go. And you’ll enjoy the journey.

Accountability is about writing a contract with yourself to leave no stone unturned.

Over the past 13 years, I have learned that talent and passion will only get you so far. We are most at risk of the things that go on inside our minds.

In that time, I learned to understand that voice, when to listen and when to ignore. I’ve dug deep into why we behave like we do and how that affects our lives and businesses.

All fear can be overcome only if we know why it exists. I believe in our potential that our thoughts are a tool, and that action is our greatest asset.

We have found Grant excellent in drawing out important discussion points in our business and helping us re focus our energy in the right direction.
— Roland
If you want an honest assessment of your business position and opportunities, with enough kindness to help you hear the truth, I recommend Grant and Waking Giants.
— Mary

Over the years I have worked with 100s of business leaders that have been trapped by their self-doubt. For those that overcome, they get to make all the choices.

  • Let’s be clear right up front, as I would expect of any relationship. My fixed fee for coaching is from $450 per calendar month. That includes 1 hour of concentrated coaching in person or online. Access to The Lone Leader App, which has all of my accountability tools, notes and frameworks and a confidential chat tool. So wherever you are, I’m right with you.

  • Six months is the shortest contract I offer. At that point, we can review and renew if we agree. If you need a short term strategic advisor then I would suggest looking at my workshop advisory service.

  • Firstly, I have been running businesses since I was 7, so it is in my blood, but my passion for supporting leaders has been prominent since before I started Waking Giants in 2011. Having held various senior and advisory roles in private businesses, I have been exposed to high-level strategy and how humans behave. In 2019, I realised that it was the potential of these individuals that motivated me, and I have been focused on strategic coaching since.

  • My knowledge is driven by my natural curiosity, so I have worked in industries including legal, logistics, technology, service businesses, sales, media, insurance, and e-commerce, to name a few.

  • It’s nice and straightforward. You pay for your first session three days before we kick off through our Stripe payment gateway. Once this is received, you will be onboarded with the app, membership and scheduled. Your future sessions will be automatically invoiced upon the completion of each session. We can also offer subscriptions if that makes it easier.

  • My app takes care of all of that. It’s on your device with reminders and frameworks to support you. You focus is to turn up, make a plan and do the work.

  • I am privileged to live in New Zealand, but I have coached all around the world including the UK, New York, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Costa Rica, Norway, Philippines and of course New Zealand. The beauty of technology.

  • You can contact me about your needs here.

  • I formally coach a maximum of 10 individuals at one time (within a month). Otherwise, I have group engagements.
