Business Advising turns barriers into open doors.

These complementary programs address specific internal and external barriers to growth. Get coaching from experts in your area of need, demystify your legal landscape, and heal from the stress and surfaced trauma of running a business.

Get support in three key areas.

One-on-One Coaching

We connect you to talented experts to guide you through the barriers and opportunities you’re facing today. Depending on your need, your coach might be an experienced industry voice or an expert in a key area, like financing, marketing, or operations.

Legal Guidance

Our partner Rational Unicorn Legal Services will provide legal insights to help you make informed choices about your situation. This program does not pay for legal representation or services. Legal guidance is available in Spanish.

Mental Wellness Support

Building a business is stressful and can surface trauma. Xcelerate offers mental wellness support that’s trauma-informed and gender and culturally competent. These services are not an ongoing therapeutic relationship.

In a call, our staff will get to know you and your business, assessing your current size, plans for growth, and immediate needs and concerns. If you have a product or service that’s been on the market for at least one year and is already generating revenue, we’ll recommend a next step Xcelerate program. If your business is pre-growth, we’ll connect you to resources from like-minded organizations.

Reach out and get started

Join a small group of women business owners like you, matched by growth stage and needs. Peer groups are a facilitated space to share successes and struggles, collaborate and ideate, set goals and hold each other accountable. And perhaps more than anything, realize you’re not on this journey alone.

Apply for a Peer Mentorship group

Join us for educational workshops and business community discussions with virtual, in-person, and hybrid options.
