I get asked all the time about the different tools & software I use and about the courses I take & communities I'm in. I decided to pop it all together on this one page so that you can see exactly which tools & software I recommend you use, some of my favourite courses & the people who bring out consistently brilliant products that I love and have bought from in the online community!
Wandering Aimfully is a group coaching community for intentional business owners. I've been a part of WAIM for over 4 years now, and credit the community & the support from Carol & Jason with being one of the main drivers behind the successes I've had with my business in the last few years. Equal parts encouragement, coaching & humour - it's for you if you want to learn how to create a business and life that works for YOU.
I use Square over everything else for all of my client services. They’ve also recently introduced contracts and bookable packages, meaning I can use it for all sorts of client services stuff! I also love that Square integrates so readily with other tools. (PS - If you sign up to Square through my affiliate link, we both get £1000 free of processing fees!)
My client & customer group, The Forest, is hosted on Heartbeat and it's fantastic. Super simple to use with great features and it makes it really easy to manage my online community. I also use it to host extra things like an affiliate-specific chat as well as dedicated spaces for each of my courses to help my students get support when needed.
I've used ConvertKit for years and it's the email platform I come back to time and time again - simple, flexible and extremely powerful under the hood. I love that I can integrate it via my other favourite tools & heavily rely on the sequences and automations.
I adore a good user experience, and the folks at LemonSqueezy are incredible. As they're Merchant of Record, EU VAT and all taxes are sorted for you, and they make it ridiculously easy (as lemon squeezy! 🍋😂) to set up your online products & sell them online. Plus the folks that run it are fab!
Krystal are my choice of web hosts - UK based, 100% green hosting, and a registered B-Corp - and their hosting itself is fantastic! The quickest speeds I've ever had with my websites and with great features like staging servers, privacy protection, and caching built-in.
Privacy as both a consumer and business owner is really important to me, so I use Fathom as my analytics of choice across all my websites. (PS If you use my link, you get $10 off your first payment!)
I have been a long-time user of 1Password and I think online security is so blummin’ important. I use this to store all my business passwords, and ensure that they are secure and can be easily reset. I can’t shout enough good things about this, and their newest versions of the apps are just sublime 😍
I use Loom for SO many video-related things in my business! I use them to send quick videos to clients, I use it to record all of my course videos, and I also use it to host existing videos recorded elsewhere. The videos are easily branded on their Pro plan, with captions included by default on all videos. They also recently brought in the ability to edit the captions on the videos & to export a transcript of the video content as well!
This is what powers my emails & I use it for file storage via google drive, google docs & sheets as well.
Despite other one-off apps being available, I love my Adobe Creative Cloud - it works brilliantly for a lot of the work I do, and I plain prefer it over other alternatives for things like my PDF guide designs! Plus, I love Lightroom for all my photo editing.
I feel like Calm is one of my secret weapons - not only do I love doing their daily meditations, but their music features have some fantastic options to work from! I can't work without some form of music, so it's this or Spotify playlists all the way.
