I DON'T HAVE A BUSINESS YET, I JUST HAVE AN IDEA. IS THIS COURSE RIGHT FOR ME?
Yes! In C&C you’ll gain a feminist framework for entrepreneurship and tools for fleshing out your concept. Plus, our unique, interdisciplinary and intersectional curriculum will help you become more integrated and embodied as you go, allowing you to work with more efficacy and ease. By the end of this course, you’ll have clarity around your core values, purpose, and feminist principles. You’ll also know if entrepreneurship is the right path for you and what next steps to take to bring your idea to life. Plus, you’ll meet other amazing businesswomxn from around the world!
I HAVE A KNOWING THAT I’M READY TO BECOME AN ENTREPRENEUR, BUT I DON’T KNOW WHAT KIND OF BUSINESS I WANT TO CREATE. IS THIS COURSE RIGHT FOR ME?
Yes! This course is all about seeds and soil. Running a business is like gardening—you decide what you want to plant, tend, and eventually harvest. We give you the information you need to discern if entrepreneurship is the right commitment for you, and then we help you connect with those special seeds that will become your beautiful business. Week 6 is entirely dedicated to conceiving your unique enterprise and calling in the vision of your business, rooted in your values and your purpose.
I'M ALREADY IN BUSINESS. IS THIS COURSE GOING TO BE USEFUL?
If you are a solopreneur (meaning, you are your business) THIS IS FOR YOU! C&C will show you how to give your business structure and develop a vision for growth that doesn’t require you to work more. If you’re feeling burned out, C&C will assist you in recovering your pleasure, embodying your values, and building a company that can scale. You will gainclarity of purpose and feel more grounded in your business as you bring your feminist principles into your business practices.
If you are a business owner with employees, we recommend you join us in The Sisterhood instead of C&C.
I AM NOT A BUSINESS OWNER, I'M AN INTRAPRANEUR/MANAGER/LEADER WITHIN MY COMPANY AND VERY INTERESTED IN C&C, IS THIS FOR ME?
I'M NOT A FULL-TIME ENTREPRENEUR AND DON'T PLAN ON BECOMING ONE, BUT I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THESE IDEAS. CAN I JOIN YOU?
C&C provides a valuable community for those engaged with the challenging and emotional work of entrepreneurship. It is not designed for employees wanting to bring these concepts into their workplace nor is it appropriate for those with primarily an intellectual interest in the material (academics, press, writers, researchers). Please consider our corporate consulting packages and publications for deeper engagement.
I'M INTERESTED IN THIS COURSE BUT I'M A NORMAL HUMAN WITH SOME STUFF GOING ON (LIFE/WORK/KIDS/HOLIDAYS). WHAT DAYS/TIMES OF THE WEEK DOES THIS HAPPEN?
We like to set our own hours too! This course is housed on Pathwright, which is an online learning platform. Every Tuesday you will get a new bundle of materials to engage with throughout the week. We engage with you via the online discussion threads and four live video chats. Please note that most of the content requires an active internet connection to view.
There are four 90-minute live video classes to give you the opportunity to ask questions from the curriculum and get business advice directly from Jenn & Amelia. These take place on Zoom.us. These are the only live class sessions of the course. If you can't attend these, don't worry! We will record the videos and post them online within 24 hours for you to view.

WHAT KIND OF INVOLVEMENT/SUPPORT DOES SISTER PROVIDE?
We monitor and participate in the online discussion threads to answer your questions, provide clarity, and cheer you on. We do not take phone calls and we do not offer individualized feedback on the materials via email. If you need help or want to engage more deeply with materials, we ask you to post your question online or pose it in a video class so that we can explore it together, as a group.
IF I DECIDE TO LEAVE/QUIT/ABANDON THE COURSE, WILL I GET MY MONEY BACK?
All sales are final. If you choose to pay by installment and you quit or abandon the course, your card will continue to be charged until your tuition has been paid in-full. We do not offer refunds. If you want to ensure that C&C is right for you before making a commitment, we are happy to hop on the phone with you for a 15-minute fit call to help you determine if C&C will meet your needs.
I WANT TO SHARE THIS MATERIAL WITH MY BUSINESS/LIFE PARTNER/TEAM. IS THAT OKAY?
