The Momentum Room
A working board for women in business.
For women who are ready to stop managing their business and start leading it.
A small, in-person group - limited to five members. One full board day a month. Weekly check-ins. The kind of honest challenge and accountability you won't find in a networking group.
"Not a workshop. Not networking. A working board where real decisions get made and followed through."
Running a business that depends entirely on you?
If any of these feel uncomfortably familiar, you're not alone - and it's not a lack of ambition.
You've grown past the startup phase but haven't quite found your footing as a leader
You're making decisions without anyone to properly think them through with
You have a clear sense of what needs to change - but no dedicated space to work on it
You've tried accountability before - it was either too shallow, too busy, or it didn't last
You're doing well enough that it feels ungrateful to say it's not working - but it's not quite working
This isn't about working harder. It's about getting out of the weeds long enough to actually lead.
You arrive at every board day with a real brief - and leave with committed actions, not good intentions
You have four women who know your business, your numbers, and your blind spots
Decisions that used to circle for weeks get resolved in a single conversation
You stop performing progress and start making it
You're being held to account - not by an app or a spreadsheet, but by people who've seen your work
The magic doesn't happen in the worksheets. It happens in the room.
What changes when you're in the room
How a board day works
Every board day follows the same structure. That structure is the point - it creates the conditions for something most business owners never have access to.
Not a pitch. Not a performance. Not networking. A room where you can say what's actually going on - numbers, doubts, real challenges - without judgment. That honesty is what makes the work possible.
Four or five women who know your business, your priorities, and what you said you'd do last month. Not an app. Not a spreadsheet. People. That's the kind of accountability that actually changes behaviour.
You don't leave with advice. You leave with decisions that have been properly stress-tested by people who understand what you're building. The group's combined experience is one of the most valuable things in the room.
When you're inside your business every day, you lose the ability to see it clearly. The room gives that back. Sometimes the most useful thing is someone asking the question you've been avoiding.

What's included
Limited to 4–5 women. That limit is deliberate - it protects the depth, focus, and quality of attention every member receives.
Monthly Board Day
One full in-person day in Staffordshire and Derbyshire. Your dedicated Board Seat - present your priorities, receive structured challenge from Clare and the group, leave with committed actions and a clear next 30 days.
Weekly 15-Minute Check-In
A short focused call with Clare every week - Zoom or phone. What you committed to, what's in the way, what you're doing about it. Execution-driven, not coaching.
Optional Business Club Access
All Momentum Room members can join Business Club at no extra cost - a weekly live accountability session with Clare, 52 weeks a year, no breaks.
The board day in detail
The day is structured so every member gets the same depth of focus and challenge. Here's how it flows.
Every board day opens with a round table. What's worked since last time. Sets the tone, builds energy, and reminds everyone in the room why they're doing the work.
Each member has up to 30 minutes of dedicated, high-focus time. Where are you, what's the priority, what's in the way. The group is prepared before your seat begins - no warming up, no catching up.
Up to 15 minutes of open, honest, direct input from Clare and the group. Not advice for its own sake - the questions you haven't been asking yourself. The decisions that need stress-testing before you act on them.
A proper break built into the day. Time to step away, process what you've heard, and arrive at the next seat fresh. The depth of the afternoon is only possible because of this.
Every board day closes the same way. What will you do, by when - stated out loud, in front of the group. The group witnesses it. That's where the accountability becomes real.
The day runs from mid-morning to late afternoon. The structure isn't rigid - it's protective. It's what allows the depth to happen.
