The CEO Collective®
Basically… your business feels like herding kittens.
You’re making real money. You have real clients. You’ve built something and it’s kinda working.
In reality – it feels like you are the only thing holding it together. Like if you slow down, even for a week, everything stops.
That’s not a you problem. That’s a systems problem. And it has a solution.
What’s Actually Going On
You’ve built an expert business.
Here’s what nobody tells you about what happens next.
You’re already past $100K. Maybe you’re at $250K, $500K… even more. You have clients who love you. You have real expertise. By every external measure, you have succeeded. And yet…
You feel maxed out – like growing without working more hours seems impossible
You can’t take more than a few days off without checking in constantly
You’re spending more time running the business than doing the work you love
You’ve tried hiring help, but somehow you’re still the bottleneck
🤦🏽♀️ Your to-do list runneth over and your calendar is full before the week starts
You feel like the best-kept secret in your industry – and aren’t sure why
You feel maxed out – like growing without working more hours seems impossible
You can’t take more than a few days off without checking in constantly
You’re spending more time running the business than doing the work you love
You’ve tried hiring help, but somehow you’re still the bottleneck
🤦🏽♀️ Your to-do list runneth over and your calendar is full before the week starts
You feel like the best-kept secret in your industry – and aren’t sure why
This is what we call the messy middle. You have enough success that the old “hustle your way through it” approach clearly isn’t going to work anymore. But you don’t quite have the resources, the infrastructure, or the clarity to take the next step.
You’re making enough to know you need a team. But your business doesn’t have enough infrastructure yet to make a team actually work. Chicken. Egg. Chaos.
The answer isn’t more hustle. You can throw money at the problem…
but that’s just hiring cowboys to herd kittens.
The Real Problem
You’ve been following the wrong roadmap.
Most of the marketing and business advice out there – including programs you’ve probably already invested in – was built for a completely different kind of business than the one you’re running.
The coaches and course-creators who dominate the business-building space are running high-volume, transactional businesses. They make money selling to thousands and their advice was built for that model. If you paid $30K for a program designed for online course creators or digital product businesses, but you’re running a high-touch service business… it was like getting a map for the wrong terrain.
You’re running a high-trust, relational business – one built on client relationships, referrals, reputation, and results you can measure by name.
| High-Volume Transactional | High-Trust Relational - You |
|---|---|
| Needs thousands of clients per month | Needs 10–100 clients per year |
| Grows by going viral and scaling ads | Grows by referrals and reputation |
| Clients are transactions in Stripe | Clients are people you know by name |
| Built on funnels and automation | Built on trust earned over time |
When you apply a transactional playbook to a relational business, nothing works the way it’s supposed to. And when it doesn’t work, you blame yourself.
You are not behind. You are not broken. You have been following the wrong roadmap.
The SOLUTION
Introducing The CEO Collective®
A 12-month operating system and leadership mentorship for service-based women entrepreneurs at $100K-$1M – ready to run your business with clarity, not chaos.
The CEO Collective® is not a course. It’s not a peer community. It’s not a marketing tactics program. It is a proven, registered operating system – the 90 Day CEO Operating System® – implemented inside a 12-month mentorship experience with quarterly planning retreats, weekly strategy support, and a community of women who understand exactly where you are.
This framework has been pressure tested across 80+ live CEO Retreats and thousands of service-based business owners – through recessions, chronic illness, caregiving, grief, and a global pandemic. It holds.
The 90 Day CEO Operating System® Framework
Five pillars. Built for the business you’re actually running.
01 · Vision & Values · THE FOUNDATION
Your vision is where you’re headed. Your values are the rules of the road. Without both documented and actively used, every decision is a negotiation from scratch. With them, you have a filter – and a team that can align behind something bigger than your personal revenue targets.
02 · CEO Leadership · LEAD YOURSELF & OTHERS
Your business will not grow past your current level of leadership. This pillar covers your habits, boundaries, communication, decision-making, and ability to ask for and receive support – including unlearning the toxic leadership patterns so many of us absorbed before we knew better.
03 · Client Growth Engine™ · MARKETING · SALES · CX
Attract → Engage → Nurture → Invite → Delight. For a relational service business, this does not mean funnels, paid ads, or a content team. It means a repeatable system for generating referrals, converting warm conversations, and delivering a client experience so exceptional that renewal and word-of-mouth are built in. Build the assets once. Your team runs it. When this is working, you can predict your revenue within 10% every single month.
04 · Team Growth Engine™ · SELF-DIRECTED TEAM
For most service-based businesses at this stage, this means a 2–5 person team – not a 20-person content operation. Recruit, hire, onboard, and lead that small team so they take real ownership of their roles. Not task-completers who wait for your instructions – a team that makes decisions, grows their skills, and earns a genuine career trajectory. Approached from an equitable lens: you are not extracting labor. You are building an organization that outlasts any individual in it – including you.
05 · 90-Day Planning Rhythm · CLARITY EVERY QUARTER
Every quarter you step away to review your vision and build your next plan. Every week, a CEO Date. Every month, assessed against results. This is how “do the work once and rinse and repeat” actually gets implemented – and how your business becomes compoundingly more efficient, quarter after quarter.
The 90 Day CEO Operating System®
Five interconnected pillars. None optional. All of them compound.
Tested across 80+ CEO Retreats · 2,500+ business owners · 15+ years

Before Your First CEO Retreat
Your personalized onboarding.
We refuse to throw you into a program and leave you to figure out your priorities. Before you ever join a group call or attend a CEO Retreat, Racheal has her eyes on your business.
The Strategy Deep Dive
Racheal reviews your online presence, your offers, your numbers, and everything you share about your business. She's looking for leverage - the small shifts that create the biggest results. Then you have a focused 1:1 strategy call where she asks the questions no one else is asking.
Your Custom Strategy Playbook
Within a week of your call, Racheal delivers a personalized strategy playbook built for your specific business. It covers:
- Your full Client Growth Engine
- Ideal client and positioning
- Pricing and programming
- Your marketing mix
- Your highest-leverage priorities
Your First CEO Retreat
With your playbook in hand, you attend your first quarterly CEO Retreat - in person in Richmond, VA or virtually. You go into that planning day with Racheal's eyes already on your business, so your first 90-day plan is actionable, specific, and built on real clarity.
Your Year Inside the Collective
This is not a self-directed resource library.
It's a guided year of implementation.
Every month has a dedicated focus and a live coaching call (in addition to our weekly calls). in a. Four months are CEO Retreats - your quarterly planning days. The other eight each address one pillar of the 90 Day CEO OS®.
Your Weekly Rhythm
One focused hour to review your 90-day plan and set your top three priorities for the week.
Dedicated implementation time alongside other CEOs who are doing the work - not just talking about it.
Live laser coaching on your real business challenges. Your business, your situation, your next step.
24/7 access to your peer network and 15+ years of trainings, templates, and frameworks - organized by pillar.
Monthly Focus - Your Year at a Glance
What happens when you stay
Most members join thinking they'll do one year. Most stay because the results keep compounding.
The first 3–6 months are about building the foundation. Months 6–12 are where momentum builds. Year 2 is where members start truly stepping back as their team and systems take over.
Every month, Racheal sits down with one long-tenured member for a CEO Conversation - a fireside chat about what it really looks like to implement this framework over time. Every member gets access to listen in. And for our most senior alumni, the intimate Visionary CEO mastermind is where the deepest work happens. The container grows with you.

Choose Your Path
Two ways to join The CEO Collective®
Both tiers start the same way: your first 30 days are a onboarding and adeep-dive strategy intensive with Racheal. She pops the hood on your business, identifies where you’re leaving leverage on the table, and designs a Custom CEO Strategy Playbook built specifically for you. That playbook becomes the foundation for everything you implement over the next 12 months.
The difference between tiers is your stage of business and how much direct access to Racheal you want beyond that.

Is this right for you?
The CEO Collective® isn’t for everyone.
We designed this experience for a specific type of entrepreneur who is ready to step in and profit from the 90 Day CEO OS® framework. Read both sides honestly.
Not for you if…
You're still pre-revenue with no tested offer or paying clients
You want a silver-bullet tactic, a viral formula, or someone to do your marketing for you
You're running a high-volume online course or e-commerce business
You're not willing to slow down long enough to build systems
You want maximum revenue without regard for how your team or clients are doing
You're looking for someone to hand you a plan without doing the work of implementing it
You've fully bought into overhyped funnels, 47-step marketing tactics, and internet guru culture — and aren't ready to unlearn it. We're not a deprogramming service.
You do not believe that Black lives matter, that all love is love, or that every woman deserves a seat at the table regardless of her race, religion, orientation, or background. This community is not for you — and we will protect our members accordingly.
Built for you if…
You're a coach, consultant, or service provider who sells your expertise — and you have paying clients already
You're running a service-based business at $100K–$1M and ready to build real infrastructure
You've grown on referrals but need a repeatable system to bring in clients consistently
You are the bottleneck — answering every question, doing the admin, and know you need to get out of your own way
You want a self-managing team so you can focus on the work only you can do
You know systems are your Achilles heel — and you're finally ready to fix that
Planning sounds great in theory but sticking to it has never worked — until now
You believe success should be shared — by you, your team, your clients, and your community
You want a business that could survive the hardest months of your life with grace

Member Results
What our members have built
Service businesses across industries – chiropractic, financial planning, marketing, consulting, wellness, and more. All running relational businesses. All implementing the same operating system.
Your Questions
Answered.
How much time do I need each week?
The weekly rhythm — Monday CEO Date, Wednesday CoWorking, and the weekly Strategy Call — takes approximately three to four hours. Implementation of your plan typically takes another three to six hours, but most members find they’re replacing chaotic busy work with focused, high-leverage activity.
What kind of businesses does this work for?
Coaches, consultants, therapists, health practitioners, designers, event planners, bookkeepers, financial advisors, lawyers, copywriters, photographers, and any expert whose revenue comes from relationships and results — not volume and automation. If your clients know your name and your growth comes from referrals and reputation, this operating system was built for you.
What's the difference between Solo CEO and Scaling CEO?
Both tiers start with the same onboarding: a 1:1 Strategy Review with Racheal and a Custom Strategy Playbook. Solo CEO is for business owners at $100K–$250K running lean. Scaling CEO is for CEOs at $250K+ building a team — it adds quarterly 1:1s with Racheal, a Mastermind Day before every retreat, and the ability to bring their key team member. Scaling CEO is capped at 4–5 members per cohort due to the depth of 1:1 access.
What if I've tried planning systems before and they didn't stick?
Most planning systems stop at the goal list and were designed for businesses with large marketing budgets and content teams. The 90 Day CEO OS® was designed specifically for the relational service business. It includes the planning AND the weekly rhythm AND the community accountability AND the strategy support. It is not a tool. It is a complete operating structure built for your specific model.
Do I have to join for a full year?
Yes. The 90 Day CEO OS® is designed to compound over time. The first 90 days is foundation. The second is optimization. The third and fourth quarters are where major momentum shifts happen. Members who stay for 12 months consistently report the most significant results. One quarter shows you what’s possible. A full year changes your business.
Is this right for me given current economic uncertainty?
Uncertain times are precisely when a framework for decision-making becomes most valuable. When you have a 90-day plan, documented values, and a clear revenue model, you move from reacting to every headline to responding from strategy. Members consistently report the planning rhythm is most valuable during seasons of instability.
