Are You Drowning In...
Business Blues
You know you could do this if you had the time and right tools, but more days than not you want to give up on your dream. You wish you had a business background and think, "Maybe then things would be easier."
Spoiler alert: It can help but only makes it a little easier.
Procrastination
You have so much to do but aren't sure where to start, so you don't start. You are frozen in fear. Or maybe you are naturally a procrastinator and need to have someone tell you what to do next or "hold your hand" in a sense and keep you accountable.
We can do that!
Lack of Motivation
Slightly different than procrastination, you are lacking motivation because you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel that this hard work will pay off. You need a pick-me-up, something to look forward to.
Did someone say weekly talks and a quarterly subscription box? Who doesn't love fun mail?!
Materials
You think you finally have all the right tools but then something or someone new and shiny comes your way, so instead of implementing what you already know, you keep buying MORE coaching packages.
By the way, you are enough and you have enough. Clarity comes from action, not the other way around. And implementation beats education any day.
Imposter Syndrome
You don't feel like you can talk to your family and friends about your goals because they will just ask you "Who do you think you are?!" Imposter Syndrome has set in and you no longer believe in yourself.
Borrow someone else's belief in your abilities until you trust yourself.
Loneliness
You aren't necessarily bored, but you are definitely lonely in this entrepreneurial journey. You wish you had a community to cheer you on while you cheered them on through the good, the bad, and the ugly.
We do that!
Hiring Horror
Lucky you! You are so busy and need help but don't know how to hire or even how to find someone to hire. So actually, unlucky you. Burnout is coming on fast.
Let us help you build your dream team.
And the List Goes On...
We've Been There Too!
Become the Female Entrepreneur Powerhouse You Know You’re Meant to Be.
Imagine having a community of female entrepreneurs who are non-judgmental about your struggles because they have been there too!
At Mud on My Stilettos, we are creating empowered women who can empower women.
Hi! I'm April.
From a young age (probably 7 or 8) I wanted to own my own business. Scratch that, flip it, and reverse it. I wanted to own my own businesses, plural. It was my dream to own both a Chuck E. Cheese and a 7-Eleven. I loved both places as a kid (I still love Slurpees.).
Sometimes I think the entrepreneurial urge is genetic. One grandfather owned two motels and I think a gas station. Another grandfather owned a snow cone route (think ice-cream truck but only snow cones) and a commercial cleaning business cleaning strip malls in the morning before they opened.
I started my first business in 2016 at age 33. No one in my local Chamber of Commerce "looked" like me: the female entrepreneur. Instead, meetings were full of bank presidents, nursing home CEOs, and real estate agents, and most were older men. I fully respect all those positions, but it was a bit lonely networking with people who didn't really understand what I was going through as a solopreneur and female.
I have since grown and sold that business (and got out just in time for Covid to hit!) Fast forward to 2023. I decided to create the support system I wish I would have had when I started that first business nearly a decade ago.
I am on a mission to create a nourishing community that provides services to female entrepreneurs that help them with momentum and accountability so they can have such thriving businesses and lives that they have no choice but to also empower other women in their communities.
Fun-ish fact:
We are called "Mud on My Stilettos" because back in 2012 when I had a "real job," I was a single mom of two little girls (see pic) and always running late for work. I would take a short cut everyday from the parking lot to the door to swipe my badge and....would get mud on my stilettos. The idea for Mud on My Stilettos was born and since evolved, but here we are. Now Mud on My Stilettos is all about getting down in the trenches in the mud (getting the work done) while feeling like a badass beautiful woman (for some that means stilettos).
Oh, and I also have a Masters in Business Administration (MBA) with an emphasis in International Business from St. Louis University and a Master Certificate in Business Communication from Harvard. I kind of know what I'm talking about, kind of...maybe, almost. I definitely struggle with Imposter Syndrome and am a work in progress. Thanks for reading this far!

QUESTIONS?
I don't think anyone in the Accountability and Co-working Membership will have the same type of business I have, so how can this help me?
Sometimes this is a good thing! Oftentimes our own audience is not going to tell us when something is off. They just stop ordering, coming around, etc. Having someone not in your target market take a look at the problems can give a new perspective you had not yet thought of. Sometimes you can be so close to your business that you can't see the problems in it.
What if I still have a 9-5 job with hopes of becoming an entrepreneur? I will miss most of the meetings, so should I still join?
YES! You must still join us. Dip your toes into entrepreneurship and learn from the strong women who are where you want to be. This will save you some time and frustration when you do get to start. Plus, remember that meetings are recorded. Watch or listen later!
Is it ok if my kids are home during the meetings?
Whether you homeschool, have a sick kid home for the day, kids on Spring or Winter Break, or your kids are out for the summer, having a kiddo home during meetings is 1000% ok. Remember, our founder started her first business as a mom of 2 and now has 4 with an age gap of 18 YEARS. It's more than likely 2-4 of them will be home during calls. We just ask that you stay on mute (but everyone should be doing that anyway unless they are speaking.).
What if the program isn't for me? I'm just not into talking in meetings.
Our founder, April is an introvert, so she totally gets the not liking to talk in meetings thing, but we don't see why this membership wouldn't be for you! Come join, listen and soak everything in. Participate when you feel comfortable. Everything we do is very informal. If it's not for you, that is fine too.
By the way, we aren't JUST meetings. We are also all about private (non-Facebook) community networking and a subscription box full of goodies to keep your spirits up. You'll find your tribe even if it's not us, but if you read this far, you already know you belong here.
Please note that the subscription box portion is only for paying members. In other words, if you win (were "gifted") a spot into the Mud on My Stilettos membership, no subscription box will be sent. You ARE still eligible for swag and surprise goodies though!!!
Start your weeks on the right foot with a goal, a clear path how to get
there, and breathe easier knowing you have a strong group of
female entrepreneurs willing to help along the way if you need it.
Still not sure we are right for you? Hop on a free call to meet us! No hard sales, we promise.
P.S. Don't let money stop you. We might have a scholarship available. Email us at mud.financialaid@wpconsultinggr.com for more information. All applications are confidential. No one in the membership will ever know you were a recipient unless you tell them.
Here is a more detailed version of what's included in the membership:
Three Accountability Sessions per month (Group)
Three (3) sixty to ninety (60-90) minute large group Accountability Sessions per month. These are held Mondays at 12pm (noon), Central (10am Pacific/11am Mountain/1pm Eastern). This gives three (3) weeks per month to listen/learn/hang out/celebrate/grow as a business person then at least one (1) implementation week per month to work on your business or yourself before we meet again. Accountability Sessions are recorded and available to everyone in the paid membership.
If necessary, we may occasionally break into smaller groups so everyone can get the attention they need and have the chance to ask questions. Keeping the groups small also helps everyone get to know each other on a deeper level which is fun because when someone has a win, it becomes personal for you too! Breakout sessions are NOT recorded as our platform does not have that function at this time.
Two Co-working Sessions per month (Group)
Two (2) sixty (60) minute Co-working Sessions per month (think roughly every other week). This is where you can hop on and just work together in silence or talk/ask questions/brain storm in a breakout room. These are just nice for those of us who work at home and might not have any other adult interactions during the day (ha!). Plus Mud on My Stilettos has a paid meeting platform account, so it's nice to hop in a breakout room and meet with someone and not get booted after 40 minutes (like on free accounts). YOU ARE ALLOWED TO BRING GUESTS, so this is great if you are wanting to interview someone or you want to co-work with a friend who's not a paying member. These are not recorded.
One to two guest speakers per quarter + downloadable notes
At least one to two (1-2) guest speakers per quarter (at least one every other month) on topics we need to hear about + downloadable "CliffsNotes" shortly after (so you can focus and be engaged during the session rather than be busy taking notes!). These will be recorded. Think of it as a live private podcast where you get to ask questions!
Access to recorded sessions
In case you couldn't make it live or just want to re-watch! (I know we already mentioned recordings, but they are quite often very important to people.)
Midweek check-in form
So we can celebrate your wins the following week in our Accountability Session
Ten percent (10%) of membership fee donated to a charity
Ten percent (10%) of membership fees that are collected each month are donated to a charity once per quarter. We vote on this as a community! Together we can do great things. - Mother Teresa
It's such a great feeling to know you are a woman making a difference in the world.
Access to any resources we have on hand that we deem you may need for your business
This could be cheat sheets, checklists, workbooks, templates, productivity hacks, and any other resources, tools, or referrals we have on hand that we deem you may need in order to reach your goals
One on One "Getting-to-know" You Call.
This is NOT a sales call. This meeting will take place after you join the membership and is simply a way to get to know you and your business on a personal level so we can better understand how to tailor the program to meet YOUR needs. It also helps us put a face with a name!
Chance to be featured as "Client of the Week" on our social(s) and/or blog
This is where we will feature your company's info in an IG Live or Reel (because those currently get more reach than Posts :-) ) and/or blog which could help your website's SEO. Borrowing someone else's audience is often the best way to grow your own audience and therefore business. Help us grow as we help you grow.
Quarterly Subscription Box, swag and other surprise goodies (U.S. Only)
The quarterly subscription box is full of products from female-owned, minority-owned, and Veteran-owned businesses! (Shipping only available in the US at this time. Sorry!)
Swag and other surprise goodies are sent at various times in your membership (Shipping only available in the US at this time. Sorry!)
Please note that the subscription box portion is only for paying members. In other words, if you won (were "gifted") a spot into the Mud on My Stilettos membership, no subscription box will be sent. You ARE still eligible for swag and surprise goodies though!!!
Access to a private community (NOT a Facebook Group)...
Where you can ask questions, help others, etc.
This is actually open to the public (female entrepreneurs world-wide), but only paying members like you will have Accountability, Co-working, Speaker and other meeting links, recorded sessions, notes, etc.
We occasionally give them a sneak peak of what we are all about, but it's rare.
The occasional meditation and/or mindset session
The more these are requested, the more we will have.
Virtual meeting backgrounds to use in any meetings...
Not just the ones with us. Spice up your day with fun backgrounds!
Motivational Desktop and Phone Wallpapers
Kind of self-explanatory. Sell these if you want! We don't care! Make that money, girl!
Discounts on 1:1 consulting calls (21% off)
We know, we know, that's an odd number (literally), but there is a rhyme and reason for our madness, we promise.
Advance notice of any live in-person events (luxury females-only business retreats) before they go public
The owner of WP Consulting Group and Mud on My Stilettos used to own an event company, so you know these are going to be great! Um, we mean, they will only be great if you join us.
*Services/products included, as well as price, are subject to change at any time as this is a program we build TOGETHER.
Remember, your price is locked in for as long as you are a member.
