Every provider is different. What the program will do is shorten the time it normally takes by giving you clear messaging, confidence, visibility strategies, and a personalised plan you can implement immediately.

This involves the option of tailored sessions for:

• Identifying ideal referrers

• Clarifying positioning language

• Structuring outreach conversations

• Building sustainable stakeholder visibility

Yes, cancel a session with 48 business hours notice and we will refund the balance of sessions. Full T&Cs can be viewed at the checkout. We aim for happy customers and tend to over-deliver! 

Registration alone with NDIA doesn’t create referrals. Most new NDIS providers need a simple visibility plan, clear messaging, confidence with networking, and trusted stakeholder relationships before enquiries begin.

Inside Startup Warrior, we build these foundations together.
As you grow your clarity and confidence, we can explore community connections through the Whole Warrior Network’s state-based groups and—where appropriate—consider warm introductions grounded in trust, alignment, and ethical practice.

It’s a structured, supportive business coaching program designed specifically for new NDIS providers who want clarity, confidence, and a personalised strategy to launch their service and attract their first clients ethically. A mentor with lived experience as an NDIS provider who becomes an ally in your business venture. Learn more at the checkout.

Whether you’re unsure where to start or ready to refine what you’ve built, Startup Warrior meets you where you are.

Startup Warrior is ideal for:

• founders with a concept who wish to validate it before they start their business

• new business owners who have applied for NDIS registration and think they cannot operate until their audit is passed, and they need some urgent cash flow

• new non-registered NDIS providers in their first 3 years

• registered NDIS providers in their first three years struggling with attracting consistent referrals or complex cases

• private practice owners, counsellors, psychologists, teachers or trainers who want to empower people with disabilities
• allied health practitioners wishing to expand their services to serve NDIS participants

• sole traders, companies, family trusts

• lived-experience practitioners

• parents/carers or NDIS participants starting a disability service

• neurodivergent providers

• regional or remote providers

• anyone with no clients yet who wants support.
  If you’re feeling overwhelmed, invisible, stuck or unsure where to start, this is for you.

Yes.
Startup Warrior focuses on ethical, heart-centred, person-centred marketing that feels safe, natural, and aligned with your values. No salesy tactics. No pressure. No sharp marketing practices. I worked for 13 years in corporate marketing and will come alongside with tailored strategies to co-create with you.

Great.
Many of the most successful providers are introverted or quiet-natured. We’ll build referral strategies that suit your energy, personality, and strengths. You don’t need to become someone else to succeed.

No.
While you’ll naturally gain clarity on what you must get right, this program is not about overwhelming you with legislation and NDIA standards. It’s about marketing, visibility, messaging, relationships, and practical steps to grow.

Only where appropriate, ethical, and aligned.
Warm connections happen organically through trust, clarity, and showing up consistently. Startup Warrior builds that foundation. We never guarantee referrals, but we do support relationship-building via our curated Whole Warrior Network with a six figure+ membership and following.

Startup Warrior is different because it’s built from lived experience, real sector understanding, and heart-led strategy — not generic business theory. You're talking with an NDIS provider who is also a coach.

Here’s what makes this program unique:

• Person-centred – everything is tailored to your values, energy, and goals.

• Trauma-informed – supportive, safe, and mindful of the emotional load many providers carry.

• Values-driven & ethical – no sharp marketing, pressure tactics, or fear-based messaging.

• Degree-qualified Social Scientist – a former frontline worker, current private practice practitioner and manager bringing evidence-based frameworks to business growth.

• Not compliance-heavy – clarity without overwhelm, focusing on what actually drives enquiries.

• Real talk – grounded, practical guidance you can use immediately.

• Deep NDIS™️ sector experience – shaped by years of service delivery, community building, and stakeholder engagement.

• Informed by lived experience – including caring for people with disabilities as a therapeutic foster carer, recovery coach, family member, and advocate.

• Dual lens – created by someone who is both an NDIS™️ provider and a business coach.
  This blend is rare — and it’s your advantage.

Startup Warrior meets you where you are and supports you to grow with clarity, confidence, and compassion.

As both an NDIS™️ provider and business coach, I bring over 20 years of hands-on marketing experience across corporate, community, disability, and small-business environments. My approach blends ethical, person-centred marketing with trauma-informed communication — ensuring your message feels safe, human, and aligned with the values of the disability community.

I’ve supported thousands of NDIS™️ providers through the Whole Warrior Network community, state-based NDIS networking groups, coaching programs, workshops, and collaborative events. This has given me deep insight into what actually helps providers become visible, build trust, and attract aligned clients — without sharp tactics or pressure.

My background includes:

• 13+ years’ experience in corporate marketing & stakeholder engagement

• counselling, psychosocial recovery coaching, support coordination and therapeutic supports

• community development and building 12+ state- and national-level NDIS™️ networking groups

• co-facilitating training and branding workshops

• lived experience as a sole trader in the disability sector

• real-world NDIS™️ service delivery through Whole Warrior Solutions

This dual perspective — as both a provider and a marketing and business mentor — gives you grounded, practical guidance that aligns with how the NDIS™️ ecosystem truly works within the wider disability sector.

Startup Warrior Foundations is the evolved version of the original Startup Warrior Program based on years of feedback and experience with NDIS business founders.

If you previously knew Startup Warrior, this is its next chapter.

The Legacy program helped early-stage NDIS™ providers gain clarity and direction. Foundations builds on that base with deeper structure, stronger positioning work and implementation support designed for real traction.

This is no longer just about how to start.

This is about becoming a structured founder.

Startup Warrior Foundations is an 8-week 1:1 strategic container for NDIS providers in their first three years who are ready to build intentionally, ethically and sustainably.

Inside this program you will:

• Refine your positioning within the NDIS ecosystem
• Clarify service structure and outcomes
• Strengthen pricing language and confidence
• Map referral pathways
• Build operational foundations that support growth
• Create a structured 90-day action roadmap

The learning modules provide strategic insight and frameworks.

The transformation happens through:

• Personalised 1:1 coaching
• Implementation between sessions
• Accountability
• Decision-making
• Refinement in real time

Foundations reflects the reality that growth requires support between sessions, not just content delivery.

If you are here as a Legacy client or graduate — welcome back. You are part of the evolution of this program.

If you are new — you are entering the refined container.

This space requires engagement, honesty and action.

It is designed for founders who are willing to build properly.
