Meet Joanne Brooks – MBA, Circle Builder, and fierce advocate for women building bold, sustainable businesses that feel good to lead. With 20+ years in commercial banking and 17 companies launched (including one that scaled to $30 million inches two years), she has ridden the rollercoaster of entrepreneurship. She's built, rebuilt, and has found the clarity that comes when strategy meets soul.
Today, she guides female founders who are drowning in the day-to-day and done with doing it all alone. Through her programmes – Her Transformation, Navig8 Circle, and Elevate Consulting – she helps women clear the noise, reclaim their rhythm, and lead with purpose. Joanne doesn't believe in cookie-cutter formulas or fluffy empowerment quotes. She believes in systems that support you, circles that hold you, and strategy you can actually use.
As a speaker and mentor, Joanne shares raw truths, proven tools, and powerful questions that unlock lasting impact – because clarity is a legacy, not just a leadership skill.
