Change:Maker Collective
An online home for purpose-led individuals and leaders to feel better resourced, deepen their impact, and be supported by a thriving peer community.
So that working to create change doesn’t feel so heavy or lonely.
"Alone, we can do so little;
together, we can do so much"
Helen Keller
Who is this for?
This is a space for purpose-led people across diverse fields who are driven to do good and feel called to create change: to make things more generative, respectful, equitable, hopeful, and just.
​
You might recognise yourself here if you’re:
-
Struggling to define a clear vision in your work or life
-
Feeling called but unsure how to increase your impact
-
Lacking confidence or experiencing imposter feelings
-
Caught in procrastination, perfectionism, or people-pleasing
-
Feeling burnt out, under-resourced, or unclear on what builds your resilience
-
Finding leadership or professional relationships challenging
you would love to feel
-
Inspired by a clear long-term vision for your life and work
-
Confident and grounded in yourself and your path
-
Well-resourced, with stronger boundaries and greater resilience
-
Able to lead with authenticity and ease
-
Supported by a thoughtful community that understands the human side of creating change
​
Ultimately, you want to fulfil your potential, achieve meaningful goals, and amplify your impact, while feeling more clarity, calm, and ease along the way.
What being part of the community looks like
We believe our inner and outer worlds are deeply connected, and that doing the inner work brings greater joy, congruence, and impact. We also know the collective power of community; how much further we can go when we walk together.
​
You’re welcome to join as many sessions as serve you each week. Everything is opt-in.
​
A Space to Think
A lightly held space to pause and untangle what’s on your mind. Not to plan or decide, just to think, openly and curiously.
Come as you are to:
-
Think out loud: bring what’s on your mind and explore it with the group.
-
Offer reflections when invited
-
Or simply listen and let it wash over you. Just being here supports the space.
It’s often the difference between feeling stuck and seeing a way forward, between stewing alone and realising you’re not alone at all.
A Space to Be
In a world wired for urgency and output, this is something quietly radical: a space to pause, slow down, and simply be. It sounds simple, but for many of us, it’s one of the hardest things to give ourselves.
​​
We use gentle doorways back to yourself: breathwork, mindfulness, movement, journaling, stillness to feel what’s really here and soften into presence.
Small moments like this add up. Over time, this kind of pause can change how you meet the rest of your life: more present, steadier under pressure, and more connected to what truly matters to you.
​
A Space to Connect
Because we all need meaningful connection, and what we can create together is far greater than what we can do alone.
​
This is our space to share stories, deepen relationships, and build a strong web of support and inspiration. Over time, we’re weaving a network of brilliant, purpose-led individuals who amplify each other’s impact and open doors together that might stay closed alone.
​
​
A Space to Do​​​​
Got things to get done, but don’t want to do it alone? This is our calm, low-key co-working session.
We begin with a short check-in to set intentions, then quietly get on with our work- emails, writing, life admin, planning- before closing with a quick reflection.
Sometimes the most helpful thing is simply a shared rhythm and some quiet company.
​
We have a closed WhatsApp group for light communications between sessions. ​​
New members join on a rolling basis. We recommend a minimum of three months to get the most from the experience and commit to your own 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."
Barack Obama
why join us
-
Because being a change-maker can feel lonely. And because the road feels lighter when we walk it together.
-
Because we believe in open, trusting spaces where you can express yourself fully — your needs, your challenges, your aspirations.
-
Because success isn’t only about getting things done. How you show up, how you relate, and how resourced you feel matter deeply. This community helps you align your inner and outer worlds so you can live and lead with more connection, ease, and integrity.
-
Because making time for reflection is hard when you’re busy at work and home. Here, space is held for you — so you can think, feel, and dream where you otherwise wouldn’t.
-
And ultimately, because what you bring to this world matters. You matter.
why Joey & Sol?
This community is a collaboration between Sol Mehta-Slade and Joey Clifton, who share over 25 years’ experience in coaching, facilitation, mindfulness, somatics, NLP, Positive Intelligence, and breathwork.
​
We’ve both dedicated our working lives to building a more just and equitable world. And we care deeply — not just about what we create, but how we get there.
​
We’ve each known what it’s like to feel stuck, uncertain, or isolated. What we’ve discovered is that the biggest barrier isn’t always external — it’s often internal. How we think, and what we believe is possible, shapes everything.
​
That’s why we created the Change:Maker Collective: a space to do the inner work alongside the outer work, together.

Curious?
When we launched the Change:Maker Collective we asked for one thing from our founding members: lean in. Please bring your presence and your energy. Be here and share this space with us. If we were a start-up, we'd call it a KPI 😋
​
We chose to evolve the Collective slowly, allowing us to tweak things and better meet the needs of the group. We now feel like we're in a really good place to open our doors and let a few more people in. Growth is also a part of what this space is about.
If you think it might be a place for you, pop your details on this form in the comments and apply for a gift passes to a couple of upcoming sessions, on us.
