Your guide: Laurence McCahill
I’m an experienced coach, mentor, designer and co-founder of The Happy Startup School. Over the last 12 years I’ve helped thousands of entrepreneurs to find purpose, build clarity and realise their ideas through our transformational programs, events and retreats. Prior to that I ran a successful web design studio for 10 years and freelanced for 5 years as a designer in some of London’s top agencies.
I now feel drawn to working one-to-one in person with visionaries that want to make happy money – where income and impact flow more effortlessly.
6 years ago we launched Vision 20/20, our online group coaching program which has revolutionised our business, bringing in half a million in revenues over that time and countless spin-off products and collaborations.
I’ve created this day for you to to build clarity on your boldest ideas, get excited about what’s possible and launch your minimum loveable product, all in just a day.
