Mrs Gill Mathias
I support ladies who are at a crossroads in their lives and wish to gain clarity.
We create your roadmap one step at a time. I offer help to navigate the challenges of the midlife transition by helping you to clarify your values, goals and priorities which will enable you to make more fulfilling and realistic life changes.
It is important that we create a good rapport and mutual communication.

Business Clinics - Interactive sessions where members receive tailored advice and peer support.
Networking & Guest Speaker Sessions - Expert-led discussions offering valuable insights and inspiration.
Co-Working Sessions - Dedicated time to focus, stay accountable, and work alongside others.
Community App - A hub for resources, discussions, and updates, keeping members informed and connected.
Collaboration Projects - Such as our Amazon #1 Best Seller, The Women's Business Network Guide to Becoming a Successful Entrepreneur, enabling members to share their expertise.
At WBN, you are never alone in business- you are part of a supportive, encouraging community where women thrive together.
