What we’re about
Welcome to The Boost Room
A weekly peer circle for founders, freelancers, solopreneurs, and consultants who work for themselves but don’t want to do it alone.
We keep it small (max 10 people), honest, and intentional: each participant has 3 minutes to share who they are, one recent win, and one challenge or ask for support.
✨ The vibe: real, respectful, and supportive.
🚫 Not a space for pitching, job hunting, or client chasing.
🙌 Just people helping each other move forward.

## How it works
Each person has 3 minutes to share:
→ Who you are and what you do
→ A recent achievement you’re proud of
→ One challenge, next step, or ask for help you’d like others to know***
## Is this for you?
- Do you work for yourself? As a small business owner, first-time founder, freelancer, solopreneur, or consultant?
- Do you work in innovation, tech, digital, design, or creative industries?
- Are you looking for a more honest and meaningful networking space?
