-
Feeling deeply called, but unsure how you can be more impactful.

Lacking confidence, or feeling a sense of imposter syndrome.
-
Pushing up against procrastination, perfectionism or people-pleasing
-
Burnt-out, under-resourced or unclear of what builds your resilience.
-
Finding aspects of your leadership challenging or overwhelming.
-
Facing challenges in your professional relationships.

What does being a part of
this community look like?
The Change:Maker Collective is a coaching-based community that has been designed to help you feel resourced, gain clarity, and move through the challenges you face with greater ease, intentionality and support.
We know that our inner and outer worlds are intrinsically connected and doing the inner work supports greater joy, congruence and external impact. We also believe emphatically in the collective power of community for bringing about change and turbo-boosting our impact. We have designed a rich menu of offerings and we welcome you to join us in as many of the sessions per week serve you. Everything is opt-in.
Inner Development Sessions
Tending to what we need to stay resilient and well resourced.
Themed sessions, using a mix of embodiment, breathwork, visualisation, mindfulness, and reflective writing, to support you to connect with your bodies wisdom, regulate your nervous system, and make space to cultivate clarity and uplevel your wellbeing.
Hot-Seat Coaching
Getting unstuck, moving forward, and amplifying the change we make.
A space to bring your challenges or questions and receive in-person coaching to shift your mindset and unlock growth.
Co-working sessions / Connecting Conversations
Fostering collaboration, shared learning, and cross-pollination.
A chance to build meaningful connections and work alongside community peers and colleagues. Fantastic if a sense of togetherness, or accountability to do the deep work, is what you seek.
We welcome new members joining the community for a month at a time, rolling, at the beginning of the month. We recommend a minimum of 3 months of membership and encourage you to consider this your commitment when you join as this will ensure you’re proactive in your change journey.
"When we come together with a common purpose, we can create something far greater than what any one of us could do alone."

platforms
Circle
We use the Circle community building platform as our online hangout. We find it to be perfectly functional and intuitive. On Circle we have:
- A members directory to support crosspollination and collaboration between community members.
-
Several conversation threads where you can ask for help and share your wins with the community
-
A progress tracker - an online form to support a regular reflection practice sharing successes, and clarifying where you need help and next steps.
We have a closed whatsapp group for light communications between sessions.
why join us
-
Because we understand that being a change-maker can feel lonely and isolating - and we recognise the incredible value of a supportive and inspiring community both to our sense of wellbeing, and professional effectiveness.
-
Because we believe in the value of creating trusting, open, non-judgemental spaces in which we feel comfortable and trusting enough to express ourselves, our needs and our aspirations fully.
-
Because there is so much more to ‘succeeding’ and ‘progress’ than getting things done. How we show up, our ‘being’ state, and the quality of our relationships, matter enormously. This programme is designed to help you align your inner and outer worlds, which will in turn help you feel a greater sense of connection, ease and integrity.
-
Because when you’re stacked at work, and you're busy at home, making time to reflect and create clarity around your vision, or your challenges, can be very difficult indeed. Yet we know how important doing the deep work is. Having space held for you to dive into your challenges and your dreams means you make time where you otherwise wouldn’t. We know- we’ve been there!
-
Ultimately, because what you bring to this world matters. Because YOU matter. You’re a brilliant, passionate, caring, intelligent changemaker (we know that because you’re reading this). As changemakers, we are all working to create the society we know is possible. What if we walked the road together?
why Joey & Sol?
This community is a collaboration between myself, Sol and Joey Clifton. You can learn more about Joey here.
We have over 25 years of combined personal and professional experience in coaching, facilitation, meditation, mindfulness, NLP, positive intelligence, somatics, & breathwork. We love, and deeply believe in these disciplines as tools of creating powerful change.
Professionally, we are also passionate changemakers, having both dedicated our working lives for the last 20+ years, in various capacities to a more just, equitable society.
Most importantly of all though, we offer this space and do this work because, we care. We care deeply about the world around us, and we care not just about the world we are creating but how we get there matters too. We’ve both felt at times deeply stuck, isolated, uncertain and unsure. Through our own journeys we have discovered that the biggest blocker for most of us isn’t external or systemic (although these are undeniably real) it’s internal. How we think and what we believe is possible for ourselves plays a profound role in shaping our reality.
Which is why we’re creating a powerful community space for changemakers to come together as they do the inner work alongside the outer work. We hope you’ll consider joining us. You can learn more about Sol at thrivewithsol.com and Joey at sustainableyou.co.uk.
