Brain Bounce

B

Find yourself feeling *ahem* creatively constipated?

There’s nothing like brainstorming with someone else to really get the inspiration and motivation flowing again.

Get some relief by booking some 1:1 time with me to bounce ideas, address the big questions, get my perspective, and ultimately release yourself from that uncomfortable stuck feeling.

Is this you?

  • I’m an established business owner. I want to test some ideas with a creative thinker.
  • I’m feeling “over” generating content ideas or strategies. I need some expert help coming unstuck.
  • I have a new idea, venture or website. I want to sense-check it with an experienced writer before I launch or promote it.
  • I’m an introvert. I tend to overthink things, or get lost in my head, which stops me from taking action or knowing the next best step.
  • I feel too close to the idea. I’m not sure if it resonates or if I’m expressing it in the best way.
  • I’m in business on my own. I miss having someone else to bounce ideas off.
  • I need a safe space to ask the “silly questions.” (P.S. There’s no such thing, but I know what you mean.)
  • I’ve been using AI for ideas, but it’s lacking the human touch.
  • I feel most creative when I’m talking over my thoughts. This helps me come unstuck.
  • I have sooooo many ideas. I find it hard to prioritise or decide where to invest my energy and resources.
  • I’m neurodivergent. It helps to talk things through to gain clarity and have our conversation in writing.

Bag the best deal: Bumper Brain Bounce Day

Every month, I have one dedicated day where four lucky people can nab an hour of my fast, beautiful and creative brain to bounce off any idea.

I am talking teasing out and detangling:

  • a particular content challenge (blog, staff profiles, success stories, case studies and more)
  • thought leadership or storytelling concepts (books, white papers, your Substack, and more)
  • your long-form content writing ideas for the next quarter/six months.

Seize my fast, creative and beautiful brain (for an hour)

Unmuddle your thinking

Feel more clarity and confidence

Ask me questions (and I’ll ask you some back)

So much more helpful, human and nuanced than using AI!

This hour only costs you $100 plus GST.

Plus by the next business day you’ll also get a full summary of what we discussed including your next best steps.

My next Bumper Brain Bounce Days are:

  • Tuesday 21st April
  • Tuesday 5th May
  • Tuesday 2nd June


Pricing options.

*If you’re Auckland-based, and you prefer face-to-face meetings, we can do this at a cafe or your workplace. Please note, it will incur an extra cost for travel.

With your permission, all conversations – whether virtual or in-person – are recorded to help me generate the meeting summary and report. And to allow me to give you my full attention (I don’t have to frantically handwrite everything you say).

**All prices are in New Zealand Dollars.

Need my brain for longer?

You’ll like this half-day option.

  • Book four hours of my time in person for a deeper dive into any writing, strategy, content ideas or challenges you have.
  • Plus receive all the benefits of the Ultimate Brain Bounce above.

I decided to work with Katie (specifically her Brain Bounce service) as I trust her insights and experience. She has a wealth of expertise that I knew could help me talk through my thinking, my barriers to delivering some of my own storytelling, and that she is a thorough communicator – the Brain Bounce was going to set me up with a good foundation to proceed with.

I appreciated Katie’s excellent communication and concise and clear recommendations. I received a report after our hui which gave me some strong recommendations that have helped direct my next steps and unmuddle my thinking.

I would absolutely recommend Katie – especially for solo practitioners who need to build their profile but aren’t able to necessarily secure someone to tell their stories for them. The Brain Bounce was a great tool for where me and my business are at.

“I reached out to Katie as I was seeking help with clarity, direction and confidence with my Substack blog.

I appreciated Katie’s trusted tailor-made advice and practical suggestions that provided me with a lot of encouragement and clarity. Plus, the option of further editorial support was also appreciated.

Katie’s a good listener and asked very good questions which led to great advice. I recommend her Brain Bounce because it’s helpful to bounce your ideas off someone external for a confidence boost and sanity check.”
