Don’t settle for one-size-fits-all business advice.
When you can have game-changing guidance, and solutions as unique as you are.
But you’re different. You know the value of smart decision making. Even if you’re exhausted.
AS A CEO, I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT IT CAN GET PRETTY LONELY UP THERE AT THE TOP.
All eyes are on you, every decision rests on your shoulders. When you’re faced with endless decisions, fatigue and overanalysis sets in leaving you feeling run down & exhausted with little left to give your family. It's a heavy burden to bear, and it can take a toll on your well-being.
Most CEOs when pushed against a wall will make knee jerk decisions that end up costing them down the road.
You know you can’t spot your blind spot. You need someone in your corner.
You need someone on speed dial that will be objective and has the ability to see solutions where others see problems.
YOU NEED AN ADVISOR!
WHICH IS WHY
Which is why I’m here rolling up my sleeves so we can identify the root cause of your business problems and develop a plan to fix them.
Together, with your big picture vision and my exceptional problem-solving skills, we’ll handle even the most challenging situations with ease.

She is a successful business owner, but she needed to pull the pieces of her projects together to create a system she could rely on to ensure everything ran smoothly.
This is what she had to say after all was said and done:
“I have been able to feel a sense of relief when it comes to client projects. Maliquea has given me the time, space, and energy to step into my CEO role. In just 3 months, we were able to streamline our back-end client pipeline, create a hiring strategy, and plan for marketing events happening in the future. I am finally getting ahead instead of being stuck in the day-to-day.”
Amanda radically changed her business after taking my advice. By organizing those projects and learning to properly delegate to the right team members within the new system, she was able to cut down the number of team meetings drastically and get her agency running smoothly.

Amanda,
Samantha radically changed her business when she took my advice to streamline her business operations so she could finally work on her business, and not just in it.
Here is what she had to say about her experience:
“Almost immediately after hiring I saw results. I made nearly 10k more in the next month, and met my stretch goal for 2021 of 200k. I have simpler, automated ways to manage schedules for doula team members and bill clients with a time tracking system and payroll. It's made such a huge difference! I now spend much less time doing administrative tasks each week, which has given me freedom to have a personal life.”
Due to the HUGE changes we made to her business, Samantha was able to take her first vacation in YEARS and finally cut back on client work. Now her business is aligned with her life, which is exactly what she wanted.

"Maliquea's passion and experience were really helpful"
“When Maliquea shared her insight on running a business with intention and planning according to your own needs so many things clicked as a business owner. She not only provided the "what" but the "why" and the "how" that are essential when figuring out those next steps to incorporate and yet so many educators rely on regurgitating fluff for. Maliquea's passion and experience were really helpful when breaking down the important aspects of planning and how to apply changes to make sure that what you were putting on your plate really helped move your needle forward in the end!”
-Taryn Jerez, One Crafty Miss
"I’m so incredibly thankful to have worked with Maliquea."
She helped me feel confident that I could offer an exceptional client experience, while keeping everything organized behind the scenes. Her background in the event industry was priceless while she helped me strategize and implement my own systems. I highly recommend her services to anyone who is looking for guidance in creating peace & structure within their business."
