Don’t get stuck at the surface.
Strategy and Operations that goes deeper to build a stronger and more profitable expertise-based business.
Helping you build deeper foundations for growth.
Because “random strategy” isn’t working for you anymore.
You want to keep growing your revenue but are already overwhelmed with everything you’re doing
You’re missing deadlines, working too many hours, and you’ve become the bottleneck for your team
You don’t have a handle on the money in your business (and might not know if you’re making enough profit to make it worth it)
You struggle trying to stay consistent with your marketing and sales activities
Or maybe everything is working smoothly… but you want to keep evolving without sacrificing the balance you’ve built
You’re facing a threshold point where you have to make some decisions about your business -- and simply “working harder” to get to the other side isn’t possible. It’s not about adding more - it’s about focusing on the right next steps for your business.
You need the strategy, the systems, and the structures to support your next stage of business growth.
It’s time to dive deep into your business and determine what’s really keeping you from profitability, ease, sustainability - and design your plan to get there.
I’m Jessica Lackey, ex-corporate warrior turned deep business and operations strategist.
I was trained as a business consultant, strategist, and operator - in places like Harvard Business School, McKinsey Consulting, and Nike.
Which means I know business - and I also know exactly what it’s like to be forced into toxic productivity, hustle culture, and pigeon-holed into judging success by the bottom line.
I bring that expertise in business strategy, combined with a human-centered perspective, to help entrepreneurs grow and scale sustainable businesses.
When you don’t know where to go to keep growing…
It is so tempting to turn to surface-level solutions because that’s what’s wildly available and the promises are seductive.
But you’ve tried all the short-term fixes. You’ve listened to all of the podcasts, read the books, taken the courses, and joined the group masterminds. You’ve hired an accountant yet you still might not know where the money’s going. Maybe you’ve even hired some other consultants, contractors, an assistant, or a team to help you grow.
And yet you’re still stuck.
Now’s the time to go deeper into your business and really diagnose what’s not working and build a stronger business from the roots up. You need to understand and shape your business in a way that truly works for you… not using a formula that worked for someone else. Stop getting distracted by “shiny objects”, anchor into the stuff that matters, and TRULY begin to run your business like a phenomenal leader. We’ll work together to design intentional, strategic, operational solutions to make your business run more smoothly, with less time, and be more profitable.
Stop implementing the strategies that worked for someone else’s business, and begin to run the business designed for you.
The Deep Business Approach
In the Deeper Business approach, we dive deep into your business strategy and operations to figure out your brilliance and your bottlenecks so you can break through - with intention - to the next chapter of your right-sized business.
Dig In
Digging deep into what’s REALLY going on, on an emotional/spiritual and technical level (and why you keep burning out, and why throwing random “strategy” at the issue hasn’t fixed it.).
Diagnose
Making a clear diagnosis of the core issue, and fixing that FIRST, so everything we create from there feels solid and grounded, and that original big problem stops bleeding into everything.
Design
Building the business activities and structures to truly suit your next stage of business growth - your gifts, your desires, and the kind of business you most want to have.
Dare
Take action on the fundamental activities that will work over the long-term at a pace sustainable to you, no matter how many “shiny objects” and “sure-fire solutions” cross your path.

This is not your average business coaching and strategic consulting.
Almost every creative entrepreneur needs someone who can see the entire vision, strategy, financials and operations of your business along side them in a way that can translate from your soul to strategy, systems, structures, and processes for success.
I am not a business coach, financial advisor, or operations consultant that just hands you the plan, or holds you in the space with a large crowd.
I walk hand-in-hand with you on the journey to bring your dreams to life, and ensure you do so profitably and equitably.
