Who are we?
Dark Coffee started as a podcast in 2018, hosted by our Founder and Director, Alice Lyons.
She wanted to share her experiences with depression, suicidality and burnout in her early career to reassure other millenial professionals that they can find practical ways to get their work and wellbeing working better together.
Our work has since expanded into wellbeing services spanning coaching, facilitation, talks, and events, all designed to give you the skills you need to successfully manage your work and your wellbeing, with more breakthroughs than breakdowns along the way!
![π£ You know that feeling when you want to ask someone out but you hesitate for too long cause it feels awkward af and you can't bear the thought of rejection so you reject yourself first?
π I do that most days
Except I don't do it in my personal life; I do it in my business.
π« I'll hold back from emailing a former client to ask if we can see each other again, because I'm terrified they'll tell me they weren't that into me or they've met someone else
π« I won't approach the learning and development manager at the scaling creative agency, because I tell myself they're way too cool for me and wouldn't give me the time of day.
π« I don't tell the awesome B-Corp how I feel about them and how I'd love to get to know them better, because I think they're too busy being awesome.
The trouble is, if you run your business like this, it'll die sad and alone and get eaten by its own cats
Yes, you heard me - eaten by cats. Is that what you want for your business? IS IT?!?!
ππ»ββοΈ Well, my business isn't for the spinster life just yet, and she's looking for some hot new hookups
and I could do with some wingmen to help.
π₯³ That's where you come in, you splendid, worldly person-about-town
ππΌ I'm looking for three B Corps to make sweet, sweet business with this spring
I would make the first move.... but a warm introduction always feels so much nicer than being propositioned by a rando from across the business networking platform. My gran taught me that.
π So, if you know any bright, beautiful B Corps looking to meet a wellbeing coach for casual fun (or maybe more) I'd love for you to give them my service pack [link in bio]
Also happy for them to slide into my dms.
ππ»ββοΈ Promise I won't send an unsolicited deck pitch. I'm a lady](https://www.darkcoffee.co.uk/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
