Freedom to Thrive®
Mastermind
High touch mastermind for ambitious wedding pros who are ready to scale
with more freedom of time and less hustle.
February – May 2026
This 4-month mastermind is designed for a small group of just 5 ambitious creative and wedding professionals committed to growing their business without sacrificing their time or sanity. Over these four transformative months, you’ll focus on business growth, productivity, and profitability—everything you need for a thriving business. Say goodbye to burnout and feast-or-famine cycles, and hello to a business that aligns with your passion and gives you the freedom you deserve.
Does this sound familiar?
On the surface, it seems like you’ve got it all together – but behind the scenes, you’re scrambling. You’re exhausted, stuck in the same place, and your income feels unstable. You are making money but not enough for the lifestyle you desire.
Ideas for creative projects and services come naturally to you, but finding the time to launch them feels impossible. You just can’t see how you can scale with the little time you have available.
You’ve taken courses before, but cookie-cutter approaches haven’t worked for you. The very reason you became a wedding pro – to enjoy a life filled with joy and freedom – now feels more out of reach than ever.
What if you could rewrite this story?
Imagine having the freedom to focus on what lights you up, while your business grows steadily in the background. With my 7-Step Clarity Process, tailored strategies, and intimate support, you’ll reclaim your time, confidence, and joy.
How the mastermind works?

Twice-monthly live calls to strategise, troubleshoot, and get guidance on your business challenges.

My proven framework to clarify your offers, pricing, ideal clients, and growth plan.
1:1 Consultancy Call

By the end of four months, you’ll save at least 2 hours a week, gain confidence, and have a clear roadmap to scale your business sustainably.
Remember why you started your wedding business?
it wasn't just about MONEY. it was about freedom
• To choose where and when to work
• To no longer be tied down to a Monday to Friday , 9-5 job
• To only work with ideal clients, those that bring you joy and pay your top price
• To create a magical experience for your clients
• To spend your free time with friends and family or exploring the world
but right now, it's not quite the daydream DAY you envisioned is it? You are...
• In constant hustle mode – working around the clock. You love working with couples, but it’s starting to feel unsustainable
• Caught in the feast-or-famine cycle – either fully booked with no room for growth or struggling to find new clients when things slow down.
• Craving more time – to travel, be with your family, or simply time for hobbies
• Feeling stressed and anxious – worrying about making the right decisions and securing consistent income for your family
This is not your typical group programme
When I thought about what I’d truly want if I were joining a mastermind, one thing became clear: smaller, more intimate groups make all the difference. During my coaching certification, I experienced a small group setting, and it was transformative. We bonded, learned from each other, and had real 1:1 support from the coach—something you just don’t get in big programmes.
Online courses and memberships are great, but sometimes you need personal guidance and the chance to have all your questions answered. I’ve been in courses before where I left feeling disheartened—no real connection, no access to the coach, just content to consume.
That’s why in Freedom to Thrive, every participant has 1:1 access to me. I’ll be with you every step of the way, keeping my eyes on your business from start to finish.
Freedom to Thrive® is designed for those that are ready for more. Could this be you?
YOU ARE ESTABLISHED
You have been in business at least 2 years, and you’re ready for more freedom and more profit
YOU ARE SUPPORTIVE
You crave an inner circle of wedding professionals to inspire you to step into your CEO role. In return you will be the best cheerleader ever.
YOU THRIVE ON KNOWLEDGE
You are ready to increase your knowledge so you can be the best CEO possible. You know your destiny is made for more.
YOU ARE FED UP WITH THE HUSTLE CULTURE
You want a business that brings you freedom to focus on what lights you up, while your business scales and thrives in the background.
How will we work?
You will benefit from working alongside an intimate group of likeminded wedding pros. While we’ll follow a flexible curriculum, the final agenda will be customised to the unique needs of those in the mastermind. I tailor a programme specifically for those enrolled, ensuring it supports your business goals and growth.
In order to expand your business by 40% you must grow as a CEO by 60% so you can sustain that growth.
Allison Maslan, Scale or Fail
BIG VISION
Before scaling, it’s important to learn what do YOU really want? Not what you think you “should” want, but what your ideal future really looks like for you? Together, we’ll define the vision that will drive your business and personal fulfilment.
CONFIDENCE BUILDING
We’ll tackle imposter syndrome and help you show up confidently as the CEO of your business. It’s time to shed your old self and step into a more empowered version, creating success-aligned habits that move you closer to the scaled, thriving version of your business each day.
customer experience
Through targeted exercises, we’ll define your ideal client profile and analyse your market positioning. Then, we’ll design an unforgettable client journey that couples rave about, leading to more glowing testimonials and increased referrals.
ZONE OF GENIUS
Scaling without burnout means staying in your zone of genius. . This is where you’re most productive, where your talents truly shine, and where you create the biggest impact. Focusing on the work that energises you and aligns with your unique strengths. By operating in this zone, you not only grow your business faster but also experience more fulfilment and joy in the process.
SYSTEMS TO SCALE
By leveraging the right technology and systems, you can manage your business more efficiently, handle increased demand without burnout, and scale sustainably. This approach enables you to work smarter, not harder, while ensuring consistent results as your business expands.
TIME MASTERY
If you want more freedom, it’s time to restructure your business to give you more time for what truly brings you joy. Productivity is key, so we’ll explore time management models that align with your personality and work style, because trying to force methods that don’t suit you simply won’t work.
IMPACTFUL OFFERS
Which offers light you up? Which ones do you love selling, and which do you loathe? By analysing the work done so far we will create a suite of services that is suited to your growth. It’s time to attract and sell to ideal clients ready to purchase now.
Here’s what’s included
2 x Group zoom calls PER MONTH
Each month there will be a minimum of 2 zoom calls, one specifically for training and the other 1 for monthly masterminding. Occasionally additional training will be added if deemed helpful.
CEO DAY (May)
We will all come together to work through your upcoming goals. During the day I will provide additional training to help your growth as a CEO.
1:1 CONSULTANCY call
At the start of the mastermind you will have a 1:1 call with me to discuss specific goals for your business. This is an ideal chance to get laser focussed on what you need the most from me and the mastermind itself.
guest experts
I will bring in guests experts as and when needed to provide training in those areas I am not the expert.
courses, scripts and worksheets to assist your growth
Each training delivered by me will be accompanied by either templates or worksheets so you can do the work. Plus every attendee will also have access to any micro course I have created.
