Own Account London Circle

A peer circle for independent business owners who don’t fit traditional networking, business memberships or socialising.

Building a business in London is lonely. Not in a way you’d admit out loud - but in a way you feel on a Saturday afternoon when there’s no one to call, or when you have a small win and nobody around you really gets it.

I wanted to start something I couldn’t find.

I’m looking for a small group of confident, independent business owners in London to meet once a month for a walk, a coffee/tea, no forced agenda, no speaker, no pitch. Just honest conversations about business, life, growth and wellbeing with people who understand the life you’ve chosen and face the same challenges.

Real accountability doesn’t come from a paid programme or assigned accountability partner. It comes from people you genuinely know, care about and want to impress.

You’ll fit if you are:

• Approx 35–55, based in London
• Running a business, agency or independent practice
• Not a startup, not eligible for £3m+ founder clubs
• Socially selective - looking for peers, not contacts
• Want connection, not exposure

This is not:

• A networking or pitching opportunity
• A startup mastermind or business course
• A front for an organisation, membership or upsell
• A support group or therapy session
• A dating event or after-work drinks
• An online community

You might relate to some of these:

• The people around you (friends, family, partner) don’t really get it.
• You work alone most of the time, or your relationships are purely professional.
• You moved to London and don't know many people.
• You don't want to be pressured to share - but if you do, you’ll be heard.
• You want a small, easy circle where conversation actually goes somewhere.
• Who you’re becoming is as important as what you’re building.
• You’d like a few hours outdoors, clear your head and enjoy like-minded company.

First meet:

• Battersea Park
• Saturday morning
• Coffee and a walk
• Simple introduction
• Max 6 people

If you read this and thought “finally” - let’s meet :)
