Ideate, build, and bravely launch your signature offer in 90 days with hands-on mentorship and support from an expert.
"I’ve gotten more progress in the last 3 months than I have all of last year. I have an 80% increase in revenue compared to this time last year."
– Adrienne Carrie,
Niche Website Owner
(member of past cohort; rehired us)
– Nina Staer Nathan,
Agency Owner
(member of past cohort; rehired us)
"It’s crazy to look back when we first started working together. I was in a very different place. I’ve just sold my biggest package ever and feeling really good with everything."
No business yet?
You’ll decide on your signature offer and get it launched in 90 days, together.
In Business Already?
You’ll audit your offers and increase your sales (and quality of life) in 90 days, together.
You don't want just a great business, you want a great life.
Be the hero of your own story.
Your own business is a perfect tool to create a beautiful life that gets better each year.
The right business helps you gain more control over important life metrics that matter:
Decisions
Relationships
Career
Wealth
Location + Schedule
You want a business that gives more than it takes. Freedom to have...
An “I take Fridays off” life.
An “I have choices in my life” life.
An “I have money for life’s pleasures” life.
An “I have time for the people who are important” life.
An “I can live and work where I want” life.
But here's why it's so hard for you to make progress:
You know the truth – building a business from the ground up is one of the most complex things you can tackle.
And you know your inner truth – you don't even really know what you’re doing.
You’re good at your skillset – but you’re an accidental entrepreneur – you’ve never built a company like this before.
You didn’t get an MBA or have decades of experience working in daddy’s companies.
So, you get confused about the order of things. And the complexity of things. And the amount of things.
And in business, like in math, the order really does matter. (Ugg, drag, right?!)
It’s like baking a cake, you can have all the ingredients on the counter – but if you screw up and don't add the flour, your cake won't bake.
Same with business.
There’s a reason there’s a 70% fail rate for businesses in the first 10 years. (Data from US Bureau of Labor Statistics.)
But here’s the good news:
You are right in wanting your own thing! Your own money. Your own freedom!
Why wouldn't you? Look around at all the miserable people in the world doing jobs they don't like, or not making enough in the ones they do!
You don’t want that life for yourself.
You want to join the growing ranks of people who seem to have a better quality of life and make more money.
The word nomos is Greek for "law".
Something autonomous makes its own laws.
When you make your own business,
you can make your own laws.
And you can break them,
or revise them, or change them....
'cause they’re yours.
So if you’ve been courageous enough to dream about having your own thing…
Or If you’ve already hit a few exciting milestones in your current business…
You’re here for a reason.
If you want to have a great business and a great life – why would you not want to have support?
Why would you want to go it alone, into the Wild West with so much distraction (and your nagging inner voice)?
Maybe you’re…

Hey, I’m Bianca — self-taught entrepreneur, micro-business mentor, mother, and owner of a portfolio of offers that I started from scratch with no money. (Actually I just had a bunch of student loan debt.)
In the last 10 years I’ve built multiple businesses, sold millions in my offers, have launched dozens of offers in the marketplace and have closely mentored 40 business owners in the last 18 months to help them launch and grow their offers in the market, too.
I live where I want (I’ve been living the dream on the beach in Costa Rica this year), educate my daughter where I want (she goes to an amazing international private school), take breaks when I want (say yes to those invites from friends), tell my husband what work engagements I have next year so he’ll hold down the fort at home, and I get to work with the people I want on the projects that I want. Take a ton of time for myself to exercise, rest, play, ride horses. I have time for my family.
I’ve also spent a decade building businesses with plenty of uncertainty and sleepless nights. I’ve been creating companies through insane volatility and market cycles. I've lost money, almost lost a company, and have been told by my family to get a real job. I’ve stress eaten in bed. I’ve not gotten out of bed for weeks and let my operations manager handle everything.
Look – when I first started I would often wake up wondering what the heck I was supposed to be doing today.
I was running a successful niche tour and travel business, but I was All Over The Place and I just wish someone could tell me WHAT to focus on to gain real, sustainable traction for the long haul.
When you care about building a life you love, you seek out the people and the rooms that have it dialed in already.
(It’s why you’re on this page!)
When I had the chance to work with a coach and mentor who helped me see the value of doing the *right* thing at the *right* time — someone who could answer all my questions — it shifted everything.
hold my gelato while I chime in —
Your dream life is not that far off
ONE key thing that has been integral to getting repeatable success (and that Dream Life) is actually really simple.
Don’t do all the things.
Only focus on creating a bulletproof signature offer, within a micro-business model.
Then, do the right actions in the right order.
With a micro-business model, you’ll start small and test one offer, so you can build your confidence and cash flow along the way.
If you want to build a bigger business later – great! I did.
You don’t need to risk the farm, or your nervous system, to build a business.
I mean, hasn't the last few years been enough? Doesn’t “figuring it all out on your own” sound exhausting?
Have the following thoughts crossed your mind?
I’m smart – why am I so confused when I sit at my laptop and why does this feel so hard?
I have a lot of good ideas – why can’t I just settle on one?
Why is my energy all over the place? One day I'm motivated – the next I feel like cozying up with Häagen-Dazs.
I’m all over the place – is this ADD or is this creativity?
What if I don't get this figured out? I’ll be so sad if I don’t have much to show for my efforts a year from now.
They started where you are – and understand the issues.
This is just business – it’s been done. Many times!
Other people have bravely gone before you and paved a path for you.
In the same noisy and distracting world.
They understand the exact personal struggles you’re going through.
Oh wait, they are actually people right now starting at 0 today.
They might be reading this page right now.
The good news is, there are people who have come before you that have succeeded.
"I believe if you show up, do the work, and follow my guidance, you'll get results. Actually I'm so confident that you'll gain clarity on your side-hustle and have a clear product or service within 90 days, I'll refund your investment if you don't."

Tells you *exactly* what your next steps should be — personalized to your milestone, your personality, and your goals.
Gives you consistent access to an experienced, hands-on mentor who is committed to helping you launch a signature offer that WORKS — in 90 days or less (you are *not* passed off to a junior coach).
Helps you move through smart, business fundamentals without getting overwhelmed or bogged down with too much info (digest the videos in under 20 mins a day).
Holds a safe space to experiment, implement and try again — so you can keep doing the Right Thing at the Right Time
Ensures you are one of a few with individualized accountability and attention, not just another number floating in a giant Facebook Group
So why does this program work, when nothing else has?
Well, do other programs have a ton of support, like this?
"I believe if you show up, do the work, and follow my guidance, you'll get results. Actually I'm so confident that you'll gain clarity on your side-hustle and have a clear product or service within 90 days, I'll refund your investment if you don't."

Need Someone to talk you in or out?
Let's Talk.
How long does it take for me to see results?
You’ll have results immediately — unlike most things that take forever to learn and implement, this methodology is created to give you mini wins daily. Stacks your knowledge, increases your clarity. This works if you work! We have had past clients make money before the training was over. Actually, we guarantee that you can test-drive the product for 10 days and if it’s not your cup of tea – you can get a full refund.
Still got Q's?
I've got A's.
What’s a Micro-Business?
We define a lifestyle micro-business as… Built lean without waste. Self-funded from business revenues (no trust fund or investors required). Built around your current lifestyle, or the lifestyle you’re envisioning. Built to create autonomy, on your own rules, and on your own terms. Built to support a small team if you desire (team gives you more autonomy, not less).
I’ve taken (insert another training here). Do I really need Autonomy Academy?
Yasss! Education and training is never done. The most successful people understand investing in mindset, skillset, and borrowing other people’s systems is faster, cheaper, and more fun than Googling and going it alone. You need training -- we all do. We teach you the straightest path to your next revenue stream -- and we do it in a way that does not infringe on your ethics. It makes you more you, and strengthens the best parts of you. As one client says, “you’ve given me bigger wings”. And that’s a client who has invested plenty in other education.
Is this a membership?
No, it’s a 12 week program, and it has start and end dates.
Can I take this anytime?
We do a rolling admission and are currently accepting new clients until June 12, 2022. Please speak to an advisor.
Do I need to be there for all the live calls?
No. We record the calls and you have 24/7 access. We serve people from many different timezones, so we plan our weekly Q&A at diverse times to accommodate. All questions can be submitted in advance and answers will be recorded as well.
Do I need to be tech-y to do the work?
No. You can engage in all the content -- and we have a special training to get you up to speed on how to navigate the program and organize your work. You do need a computer to work, however.
Are there refunds?
Yes. We actually offer you a guarantee that if you don’t get results working with us, we’ll give you a refund. While most people say “no refunds” on their programs –we say – of course you’ll get a refund if you want it. You can come into the program for 10 days and test-drive it – we’ll offer you a full refund if it’s not for you.
What level of support do I receive?
You get a lot of support. You have two calls that are one-on-one. You get a custom milestone tracker and accountability from our team ‘cause we’re extra like that. You get to ask all your questions. This is not some dusty curriculum that sits on your computer. Our team cares so much about you getting results that we’re here to support and encourage you to start and finish. All training is lifetime access so you can review on your own schedule.
What are the other folks like?
You’ll have access to our private community so that you can share the journey with others. In this time of the world — it’s fun to meet other people who are into bettering themselves, and elevating others around them too. Our values create an atmosphere that is safe and judgement free.
*Still* wondering if Autonomy Academy is right for you?

You’re resistant to doing the work – you don’t really want to own a business.
AUTONOMY ACADEMY IS *NOT* FOR YOU IF…
You don't have 3 hours a week to work on your business.
You don't like direction and feedback.
You aren’t ready to try new things, different approaches or ask questions
You don’t feel like you need a mentor to support you right now.
You’re open to detailed feedback, coaching and input on your business
AUTONOMY ACADEMY IS *PERFECT* FOR YOU IF…
You’re tired of not seeing results (no matter how hard you’re trying)
You’re done with underearning and being underestimated
You value a step-by-step approach with lots of personalization and practical application along the way
You’re willing to put in the work now for oodles of freedom later
You’re seeking mentorship and guidance from an expert that walks the walk
This You?
There are eleventy-billion programs out there that will prescribe a one-size-fits-all solution for your business — but you have *never* been one to run with the crowd.
Before you tell yourself, “maybe I’m not there yet” — read this.
You want to be the hero of your own story.
You don't want to be subject to someone else's rules.
You beat to your own drum.
I live part-time in Italy, and I’m spending the 2021/2022 school year in Costa Rica to educate my daughter in her 4th language (oh, and to spend more time at the beach club, cause beach clubs, along with multiple revenue streams, are my love languages).
The thing is, it’s a noisy world out there… And it’s easy to second-guess whether you deserve to put in the time and energy into the idea — and lifestyle — you wanna build.
Nothing makes me sadder than watching business owners getting swept up in the noise of the world, the clouds of self-doubt and the opinions of people who don’t 1000% believe in you.
You’ve already been courageous enough to bet on yourself. But if you wanna truly beat to your own drum, it takes finding the structure, strategic insight and sandbox to go deeper and create something built to last.
That’s why I believe you need mentorship, friendship and people on a shared journey — who actually GET YOU.
"I believe if you show up, do the work, and follow my guidance, you'll get results. Actually I'm so confident that you'll gain clarity on your side-hustle and have a clear product or service within 90 days, I'll refund your investment if you don't."

Are you putting off building “your own thing” for that perfect moment?
Are you waiting until the stars align and Mercury is not in Retrograde?
Are you waiting for more time? Hint: you make time, not wait for time.
You deserve to have autonomy, options and cash, now.
You deserve to be super excited about your future plans, and your future life that you’re creating.
You deserve to go to the next dinner party and tell people:
"I have my own thing and I'm sleeping in tomorrow”.
My final thoughts:
Let's DO This
Something that shows people that you’ve got guts and grit and also a nice schedule.
You deserve the beach club (or the VIP room at the eco-lodge).
And, let’s be straight – every great performer, athlete or child needs support and especially accountability to make things happen. You as a human doing new things needs that, too.
Business is not a solo sport -- and neither is life.
New challenges, and rewards, and journeys are yours … but we’ll do it together.
I’d love to invite you to hang with us in Autonomy Academy — we run a cozy campfire over here, and I’d love to have you pull up a chair if it feels like a good fit for you right now.
Whether you join me or not, I’m cheering you on regardless. 😘
With love,
Bianca
