July 24th. The Commons.10 Seats only
Spend an intentional and fun evening with me at The Commons, my home turned community space, as we raise a glass to your wins, brag a little about the big idea you’re ready to take forward, and make time to think properly about the second half of the year.
This is a live, in-person planning gathering for a small group of female founders who vibe with good food, great conversation, a little fun, plus the chance to make clearer decisions, and build a thoughtful plan for the months ahead.
Together, I’ll guide you through the Business Reset Guide + Planner.
It’s a planning system (both digital and actual book) I created to help founders turn ideas, pressure, and loose plans into into clear, profit- minded priorites and a practical plan they can follow.into
Join The Table
I don’t think luck is entirely random. I think most of 'luck' in business is built through the decisions we make and the plans we structure behind them..
If you’ve been carrying too many unfinished ideas in your head, I want you at the Planning Table.
Together, we’ll use the Business Reset Guide + Planner to narrow what matters, give your goals structure and build a practical path you can execute and follow.
WHAT
WE’LL DO AT
THE TABLE
The Q3 Planning Table is a working session with a Friday lime thrown in.
Ahead of your session, you’ll receive the Business Reset Guide + Planner, my 64-page digital planner built around a 6-step system.
In the mastermind part of the evening, I’ll guide you through the system and you’ll leave inspired and driven with clearer decisions made, and a roadmap you can use.
But the session is also a different kind of Friday evening lime. Think part supper club + community vibes enhanced with a live Dj for an hour of throw backs.
Intentional work needs a celebration. You do too for the founder you are, and the one you’re becoming.

That’s the kind of space I wanted to be i when I first started out as an entrepreneur. So I created it. And I called it The Commons.
The Small Business Planning Table is one of The Commons’ signature events: a few uninterrupted hours to sit with what matters, enjoy each other’s company and lime a little under the stars.
There are only 10 seats at the table. Once they’re filled, I’ll close registration. Your seat is waiting.
HI! I'M
Judette
coward
Before I built The Commons and started hosting women at my home turned community space, I spent years as an in-demand C-suite consultant helping businesses think through organisational communications and how it connected to business strategy.
Back then I built a seven-figure agency.
Today, I work with founders and small business owners on planning, digital offers, online business systems and AI.
The Small Business Planning Table brings together a lot of what I know to be true: good planning needs structure, but it also needs space. And women over 40 who own businesses need community. Fun too.
We shouldn’t have to figure every part of business out alone. The thinking gets better when smart women are in the room together.
