Scale your solo expert business to multi 6 figures.

So many professional women leave corporate life with a dream:

More freedom and flexibility.
Work that feels meaningful.
The chance to earn well while living life on their own terms.

And instead of having more time, they find themselves working harder than ever — piecing together projects, undercharging for their expertise, and saying yes to clients who drain them.

Instead of financial security, there’s inconsistency — feast-or-famine months that make it hard to plan or feel safe.

Instead of confidence, there’s doubt:

“Am I charging too much?”
“Why do other people seem to attract better clients?”
“Maybe I should just settle for what I can get.”

This is the Freedom Trap — where the very reasons you left your job (flexibility, fulfilment, financial independence) get replaced with overwork, undervaluing yourself, and feeling stuck.

Who am I?

About Maria Reid — Business & Money Mindset Coach

I’m a UK-based Business & Money Mindset Coach and founder of Women in Business Coaching.

I specialise in helping women entrepreneurs globally build premium, profitable businesses that align with their values.

Through my flagship 6-month 1:1 programme, Profit with Purpose, I combine business strategy with money mindset coaching to help women step into their value, design high-end services, and attract aligned clients with confidence.

Alongside my client work, I am a certified Money Breakthrough Business Coach® and a research partner with Essex Business School, studying how women are reshaping entrepreneurship and the wider economy.

My Clients Have Achieved Some Amazing Results

Olha, a product advisor to B2C start-ups, increased her fees by 70% and now works fewer, higher-end engagements with confidence.
Chiara, a design strategist, went from ideas to income — landing her first clients within months and building a clear system for growth.
Margaux, a web designer, more than doubled her prices, restructured her offers, and finally runs her business like a CEO.
Rebecca, a sustainability consultant, created a scalable signature offer — giving her clarity, capacity, and a business model ready to grow.
Ash, a tech career consultant, doubled her prices, enrolled more high-paying clients, and almost tripled her revenue.

Experience That Delivers Results

I spent nearly 20 years supporting leaders and their teams to achieve their vision and business goals — guiding them through leadership challenges, organisational change, and business development.

I’ve also been on the other side: procuring high-end transformational services for organisational development and sitting on procurement panels for contractors, coaches, and consultants. I know what it means to be results-focused, what organisations look for in ROI, and how high-value clients make decisions.

Today, that experience underpins my coaching with women entrepreneurs. Alongside running Women in Business Coaching, I also serve as:

- An Associate Coach with the Business Growth Coaches Network (BGCN), supporting entrepreneurs through council-backed programmes in Suffolk.

- A mentor with the Essex Business Growth Hub’s “Women in Business” initiative, delivering government-funded business support to smaller businesses and female founders in Kent and Essex.

- A Santander UK Female Business Leaders Mentor, supporting high-potential women entrepreneurs to grow and scale their businesses.

This combination of corporate, government, and entrepreneurial experience allows me to bring a truly results-driven, ROI-focused perspective to my coaching — so the women I work with can confidently create premium businesses that support their lives, not consume them.
