We’re not meant to figure things out alone.

Whether you're leading a team, launching a new offer, navigating burnout recovery, or exploring your next career step, the truth is: leadership and growth can feel lonely. Many of us crave a space where we can show up honestly, test ideas, share doubts, and celebrate wins without judgement.

Enter: the peer advisory circle.

Also known as a mastermind, peer support group, or circle of practice, a peer advisory circle is a small, intentional group of people who commit to mutual learning, support, and accountability. It's one of the most powerful (and underrated) tools for personal and professional development.

In this post, I’ll guide you through how to build your own peer advisory circle—from finding the right people to setting ground rules and creating a rhythm that fuels meaningful connection and growth.
