SUSTAINHER
The business performance toolkit designed for the next level founder.
 
 
 
 

It’s not about picking up the pace, it's changing the game.

An 8 -month immersive online and in-person experience designed for an intimate group of like-minded foundhers ready to see and reach their next horizons.

Founders looking to redefine work, business and life, for good.

While everyone has advice on how to be successful,
no one ever talks about what to do once you get there.
 
 
 
 

Becoming successful is one thing, but staying there? Is another.

Our culture. Our upbringing. Our work experience. These things have shaped the way we all see, view, and think about this idea of “life”, “work” and “success”.

But our world isn’t what it used to be.

The way we used to do things, won’t take us to where we need to keep growing and evolve ourselves and our business. In fact, not updating ourselves and not learning new approaches to business is our greatest business threat.

Our modern world? Is anything but the status quo. Doing things the way they have always been done is now riskier, then evolving and growing in new ways. And owing to the complexity (VUCA) that makes up the new business landscape we live and work in – it means that the foundations you’ve built your success on are inherently unsteady. Outdated.

Today, it’s not just about having a big bang plan for success or a high-performing product or service for life.

It’s about knowing how to continue thriving even when your business is hit by a pandemic. Transparency of supplier chain is a standard - reputation online is everything.

Our new world? Learning to not simply comprehend but adapt for HOW climate change WILL impact your market. Analytics, customer pressure and expectations aren’t going to subside - These are the new business problems to solve. You need to know how to survive supply chain loss. The seemingly overnight changes that have the capacity to flip your business on its head.

And the paradox of having an overwhelming amount of unknown unknowns and simultaneously more information than ever before, right at your fingertips.

It’s about continuing your momentum when a competitor starts doing what you’re doing, and does it better.

That education and learning you cultivated from your past experience. Your study. Your MBA? Your expertise?

It helped you get to where you are now.
But It won’t get you to where you want to be.
Where we need you to be.

Which is why we’re here.

 
 
 
Welcome…

Welcome to a new kind of growth and learning experience - a new way to create success.
We’re done with the tired notion of harder faster or longer as the only way to be successful.
We’re ready to stop just talking about people burning out and our planet melting down.  Why? Because we believe that humans are far more capable.
We're equipping you with....
Stable foundations that keep you and your business running.
Clarity and capacity to build and scale what's next.
Higher order learning to innovate and evolve your strategy

Inner development that creates far greater reaching results
The EQ. The strategy. The 360° comprehension.
To grow through our turbulent world.

So you can be that “somebody” who will do something about that.

Elana helped me gain such an incredible grounding and focus on the future. I was able to grasp what’s needed to really grow my product in the market and facilitate the growth and expansion I need to scale to the next level.I could not be more grateful for the way you have helped me grow, not just in my business but as a person. You have been so fundamental in my growth and I could not thank you enough.It's a level of insight that can only be achieved when working in such a way with someone as intelligent and insightful as Elana.

In an ever changing industry, we are constantly looking at how we grow our business, always ensuring our commitment to ethical and sustainable practices remains at the heart of what we do. Our business and leadership practices are now more aligned with this too. Simply being more strategically organised, less stressed and excited for new things has allowed us to design and spend more time thinking about where we want to take our business, and setting plans and actions in motion. We are not just ‘stuck’ in the day to day. Knowing that you can be busy/productive with structure and calming rituals has been transformative. As a result of working with Elana we’re feeling ABUNDANT! Thank you so much you are a blessing to us and we are so excited to work with you more and more.

— JANELLE R.

It is seriously life-changing and eye-opening. For business founders especially, it provides direction, thoughtful guidance and redefining purpose, all of which is incredibly crucial for the growth and continuation of any business. The result is almost impossible to express, in ways greatly unimagined. I feel clearer in my vision, stronger in my leadership, calmer in my approach and determined in my purpose. I am ready to take my life and my businesses to the next level, with no doubt in my mind only intensely burning passion.

— ATHENA S.

The SUSTAINHER Happiness Guarantee

This program draws together my wealth of experience in high-performing arenas, every element of the foundher Ripple Effect Framework, and my belief that to thrive in the modern world, leaders of change will gain greater results and have a bigger impact. Every thing we do as part of this program has both educational and experiential learning that I have studied and achieved with clients.

Because I so deeply believe in the value of this experience, I am offering you the Sustainher Happiness Guarantee. 

This means that if in 30 days, you’ve attended our sessions, put in the time and energy to complete the activities, yet are unhappy with the experience I will put the cost of investment back in your pocket. 

That is how sure I am of this experience’s transformational value.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A note to you, who is in the thick of change and knows something has to change...

The Sustainher program is for the expert and experienced business owner who already know that inner development around old rules and ways of being is the new hard skill.

You already know systemic change is needed, not binary bandaid fixes. And you are excited to expand your thinking, enabling your business to have more possibility and know how good it can get when you are part of a collective that are all ready for the step-change.

Imagine what it would be like to have a toolkit you can come back to time and time again. A toolkit that would anchor you. Propel you. And keep you on track to accomplishing your biggest, most audacious goals. 

Imagine what you could accomplish with a small group of dedicated women authentically participating with you and had the tools to equip you to thrive regardless of the curveballs our modern, messy world threw your way. 

Imagine having a business with a solid foundational rhythm, so you can focus on growth and evolution with a whole new mindset of possibility, a higher order of EQ so your work and results are far reaching…

Imagine how all of this? Would ripple into the rest of your life. Your work. Your relationships. 

This? Is what Sustainher is all about.

Frequently asked questions

1/ How is Sustainher different to other programs or experiences out there?

Great question. In short? Sustainher is an experience that’s not simply designed on information, process, or simply outcomes. It’s about transformation.And getting results.

And we do this in three (3) ways:

  1. A focus on “being” before “doing”: because to catalyse your greatest impact yet, this starts with who you need to be so you can uncover your endless capabilities, and amplify powerful actions in what you do.

  2. Sustainable success: today, we live in a world that is volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous. What got us here, won’t get us “there”. Which is why we believe to achievesuccess and greater results, we must embark on a new path; which leads us to...

  3. Our creation of a new performance toolkit for work and for life: that will completely redefine the way you see and approach your work, how you do business, and how you show up and take back control of your life, instead of the other way around.

2/ What are the requirements to be part of Sustainher, the experience?

Here’s the truth: your placement in Sustainher is not about minimum revenue, nor is it about the number of years you’ve spent in business. We ain’t funny like that.

We look for one thing, and that is, business founders who are on the growth trajectory who have the awareness that the work combines behaviour and habits to be successful AND business plans, more ideas and do-do-do’s.

Sustainher is for founders who are ready to see and reach new horizons, and feel that pull to fully step into being who they need to become, in order to do what they’re here to do.

3/ How much time do I need to commit?

To get the most out of this experience, you need to invest formally 4 hours per month in our live masterclasses, accountability check ins and coaching and action learning groups and clear your schedule so you can participate in our 2 immersive in-person business retreats.

4/ How is this different to Pace?

Powerful outer work begins with powerful inner work. And this is what our 8-week Pace program is anchored in. A foundational stepping stone to creating big shifts, Pace is for those who setting the rhythm for sustainable success.

Sustainher is a 8-month immersive experience that targets not just your being mode, but your doing mode too. This experience will equip you with a new toolkit to approach your business, work, and life, functionally and strategically.

5/ How often will new intakes happen?

Owing to the intimate and personalised nature of the Sustainher experience, we will only have one (1) intake per year. Applications will open in the 2nd quarter of 2021, and start February 2022.

6/ How many people will be part of Sustainher?

To curate an experience that is transformational, not just informational, there are only 8 places offered for each intake in our introductory year. For you, this translates to an experience that embraces you and your individual goals, and curates a tight-knit, intimate community to support you and your growth. Together, we're a group of ambitious leaders no longer committed to the status quo but committed to creating ripples of change individually for our businesses and as a powerful collective.

7/ I think I want a deeper mentorship experience. Can you help?

For fully immersive, entirely personalised mentoring experience, I offer 6- and 12-month 1:1 partnerships to catalyse 360° transformation in your business, life, and being.

Owing to the individually tailored nature of these partnerships, there are extremely limited places available. Curious to know more? Learn about 1:1 mentorship opportunities.

8/ HOW DO I TAKE THE NEXT STEP TO FIND OUT EVEN MORE?

Success this year. Non- negotiable, right? So is ours.
The next step, is complete the application form and then talk with Elana. Her role - to listen and talk with about your yearly goals and plans and for you to decide if this is the program that will support you to make it happen, faster and with greater results than you imagined. Coaches get you there faster.
