Join me and 8 designers in my 1:1/group hybrid program to bring ease back into the not-so-easy parts of running a design business. The Design Minimind™ combines 1:1 time and attention, a small-group-style community, and a video curriculum. Add in an extensive template library and a voice-note small group? I like to call it a win-win-win.
The second cohort of this program runs from Jan. 9 - June 27, 2024. Each month has a featured topic that we'll be working through in the modules individually in Teachable and as a group in Circle and our calls. However, the flexibility of a small group like this allows for us to explore custom topics that feel relevant to you and your business. Think loose structure with no topic off-limits.
The designers alongside you will be the most positive, supportive people you might be missing from your solopreneur journey. The intentionally small group allows your voice to be heard and truly lasting connections to be made. The other designers will be in similar seasons of business, but they will also have different stories and lifestyles. Learning from and growing alongside others is so powerful (and more fun, in my opinion!)
Circle is an online community platform that will allows us to get to know one another, follow threads, post questions, and find what you need. It will be the hub of the Minimind! Imagine if Facebook Groups and Slack had a baby - but make it ~aesthetic~ (and SO user-friendly).
A major difference from my 1:1 Mentorship container, the Minimind will feature a pre-recorded curriculum in Teachable that you will work through on your own time each month. Each video will be short and simple, and you'll also be able to listen without looking at the slides in case you're busy with littles ones or something else.
Sometimes you just need a listening ear to challenges specific to you (a tough client, a new discovery call, scoping a project, mapping out your marketing, etc.). You'll have a private voice memo and text channel with me in Voxer where I will pop in 1x/week to answer your questions.
Want to steal basically everything in my business? The HJC Resource Library is a Notion database full of all my Figma/Illustrator templates, Notion templates, videos of me designing and presenting to clients, and more. It's always being updated with new content so you have a behind-the-scenes view into the operations of Hello June, in real time.
Seeing the way Jen has built her business around the life she wants to live was the reason I KNEW I needed to learn from her because she embodies everything I am striving to be as a business owner. I now have all the tools I need to take my business to new heights and create the life and business of my dreams!
Jen is thought out, organized, intentional, attentive, and patient. She created a platform with so many amazing resources, guides and the curriculum which covered every aspect of a business. Not only did I get Jen's 1 on 1 guidance and coaching, but I connected with a group of like-minded business women who were a huge source of inspiration.
I gained clarity, confidence and perspective in the the next steps to take in my business. This group has helped me turn a dream into a reality. I'm now starting to see the ROI with relaunching my business in the fall. I can't wait to serve my clients with the best service and position myself as an branding expert in the food industry."
Jen is BEYOND generous with her knowledge and resources and does not gate keep success. She truly wants everyone to succeed in whatever way that looks like and feels like to them. I was able to create a solid foundation for my business that I didn't have before and that I will continue to build upon.
Jen is an amazing mentor who has a wealth of knowledge (I constantly refer back to her extensive Notion templates and guides) and she cares so much about you as a mentee and as a friend. Talking to Jen and getting her guidance gave me so much confidence to believe in myself.
Working with Jen was completely transformational for my business! I saw immediate change in my work life balance, client relationships, and pricing within the first 4 weeks of the program. I've never had a mentor so aligned in values with mine, and that made everything so much easier!
I found my true values and have so much clarity for what I want to do moving forward in my business as well as what I share online. It was so awesome to have Jen as a mentor and have the other ladies in the Minimind to chat with! It was worth every penny, Jen knows what she is doing and this was so much more than I could have imagined!"
Jen is your go-to if you want to scale your design studio in a sustainable way. She will help you gain the confidence to increase your prices in a way that feels good to you—she pushed me just enough to be slightly uncomfortable (in a good way!) She also has great advice about hiring, team structuring, and systems."
I LOVE Jen - she has made a massive impact on my life as a business owner and mum. I would 100% recommend her to anyone but especially if you’re a time-poor mum or someone who wants to simplify and do things better and smarter.

Past students have seen the following from our time together—it's the best way to describe the value you might see from The Design Minimind™. Of course, this all depends on you and your vision (but I'll be right there by your side supporting you through it all). This could be you:
See yourself in any of the following? The Design Minimind™ was crafted specifically for you. The other designers learning alongside you will be in similar stages of business, with different stories.
I'm the owner of Hello June Creative, a boutique brand & web design studio for creative service providers. I'm in year 5 of my design business and have been through it all to get to where I am today (see below!) I help designers make more and take more time off through my podcast (at 175k downloads!), and my signature group/1:1 program The Design Minimind™.
The following curriculum outlines the short watch- or listen-anywhere videos that will be available to you in your Teachable account. Our community platform Circle hosts our curriculum, your Voxer group is a space for small-group discussion, and your private 1:1 Voxer channel with Jen ensures that no questions go unanswered. It's the best combo of a flexible learning environment *and* 1:1 support.
If it's not fun, it's not getting done. This mindset has helped me craft a conversion-focused marketing plan that I actually implement (and see results from!) and work on fewer projects but pay myself more than I ever have. I've truly focused on raising my *net* revenue AND working fewer hours - the numbers that actually matter. If you're seeking the profitability that will lead to flexibility and time freedom (the reason you started your business in the first place), let's work together.
