Hello and welcome! I’m Holly Chayes

I help makers, thinkers, builders, operators, creators, etc. implement solid containers for creative chaos, and functional systems for sustainable momentum, all in aid of making a life or business you love. 

Right now I’m working with people and businesses in a couple capacities… 

Business

Business coaching and consulting for small businesses ready to dig into the practicalities of what’s next.

When you’ve graduated from mindset-only to mindset+ 

When you’ve built something that functions but doesn’t flow yet.

When you’ve outgrown and overrun what used to work.

Whatever you’re stuck on, we can get you moving to what’s next.

Get in touch here

Individual

Life and clothing magic for individuals who thought they would be more prepared for this moment.

Personal or professional.

Once in a lifetime or every day.

A surprise or something you’ve been working towards for years.

Whatever this moment is, we can get you ready for it.

Technically I haven’t washed this yet, so it’s not 100% done, but it’s like 95% done, so I figure it counts.

I made this and the dress underneath it as part of The Self-Made Wardrobe, which is a project I’m doing where I only wear clothes I’ve made for an entire year. Yep. So I’m spending this month frantically making clothes, and I’ll start wearing them June 1st. Which is in 2 weeks. eep! You can check out and follow the project here.
