Startingbloq Coaching

from $1,000.00

For leaders who don’t just need a story once — they need a partner as they live it out.

Startingbloq Coaching is 1:1 coaching for executive directors, pastors, and communications leads who are carrying real nonprofit messaging decisions every week. Instead of facing campaigns, appeals, board questions, and public statements alone, you get a regular huddle with a trusted partner who lives at the intersection of journalism, production, and civic leadership.

Each huddle is a focused 45‑minute Zoom session, anchored in the real work on your desk right now.

We’ll:

  • Work through 1–2 concrete pieces together — an appeal email, grant narrative, speech, web page, or board deck.

  • Diagnose what is truly stuck: clarity, courage, politics, or process.

  • Rewrite key lines live so your message is clear, honest, and aligned with your story.

  • End with one concrete next step you can take this week.

All packages are a 2‑month commitment, so we have enough runway to build momentum without dragging things out.
