THE ALLOTMENT
A monthly online gathering of business owners founded on community, connection and collaboration.
Like networking, but different.
The Allotment is a warmly held, facilitated, online gathering of business owners where you can build new relationships and nurture existing ones at a slower pace than typically exists in the online world.
What you can expect
Monthly calls take place on the first Monday of each month from 7.30 - 9pm U.K.
Although it is an opportunity to get to know other business owners and build connections, it is not like networking in the conventional sense.
Each call has a theme (see below) and is hosted and facilitated by Debbie.
The pace is intended to be slow and spacious.
We’ll arrive and settle as a group and then use breakout rooms with guided conversation prompts to share in pairs and small groups before returning to the main space.
There is a group chat space where you can keep in touch and shares your thoughts, reflections and ideas with the rest of the group between calls.
Investment is £17/month for a minimum of three months.
I wonder if this is you
As a business owner, you are more compelled than ever to take action in contributing to a positive change in your corner of the world.
Even though you want a successful business, you aren’t willing to sacrifice your values to get there.
Instead, you want the way you promote and deliver your work to truly represent the change that you want to make.
Maybe you are looking for
Collaboration over competition
Authentic connection over noisy marketing
Community support over needing to stand out over the crowd
“Before my coaching session with Debbie I was overwhelmed by the many possibilities about my next offer and a sense of urgency to figure it out quickly. She intuitively guided me through a powerful embodiment exercise, which brought to the surface my deeper wiser self that carried the answer.”

About your host
Hi! I’m Debbie
I’m an Earth Scientist turned Embodiment Coach and am passionate about using my skills to help other purpose driven businesses succeed.
I see business as a modality for self exploration, creative expression and community building. With this, my approach combines practical, tangible business strategy with somatic practices that support your nervous system in gently stepping outside of your comfort zone in order to take action on the things that are important to you.
About The Portal
Meet Sally
After spending 16 years in the corporate e-learning world, I became disillusioned with the companies and values of those I was creating content for and enrolled myself onto a Permaculture Design Course.
At The Portal, we’re dedicated to changing the ways we commune and learn online, embracing lush ecologies that are undermined in our current systems.
We believe in the importance of leaning on our interconnectedness to find the tools needed to create better resilience and health and to co-create to build solutions for planetary and collective wellbeing.
