Hello Friend! I'm so glad you're here!

I started REL Impact in 2016 for many of the same reasons you probably embarked on your own entrepreneurial journey: to make more money, help more people, be deeply fulfilled at work and in life, and spend quality time with the people I love most (hello triplets!).

Is this what you want, too?

The difference between us, though, is that REL Impact isn’t my first rodeo. I learned everything I know about building a business and brand the hard way.

I launched my first business back in 2004 in the fashion industry. Without a blueprint in hand, I figured it all out on my own, with good ‘ole fashioned trial-and-error, tons of research, and seemingly endless hours of work.

I was in my mid-20s, filled with boundless energy and fearlessness, and ready to make a difference and change the world! (Remember those days?)

So I went full in, and here’s what happened: 

I was overwhelmed, confused, scattered and isolated. Sometimes it felt like I was throwing money at the wall, watching it disappear upon descent. I spent countless hours doing research and seeking out mentors. There were days early on when I felt so alone and questioned my resolve to stick with it.

Do you ever feel this way? 

You want to build your dream business, start making the money you know is possible, and live life on your terms - without negotiating the things that are most important to you. 

You want to make a difference - in your own life and in the lives of others. 

You want to do work that nourishes your soul and practically pulls you out of bed each morning. 

You just wish there was an easier way to do it all with clarity and confidence.

 
 

 

 
 

Well friend... I've got good news!

After figuring out how to do it all - build, grow, market and sell what had become a multiple six-figure business - REL Impact was born out of a desire to make it easier for more women to launch and grow their own business.  

I’m driven to see more women thrive by tapping into and leveraging their inner wisdom, unique gifts and deepest potential. I believe that in doing so, anything becomes possible.

And here’s the thing:

You don’t have to become an expert in business; you just need to become an expert in YOUR business.

At REL Impact, we believe in the power of women-led businesses to create a kinder, brighter world.

And we do it by helping you connect to the most authentic, beautiful, confident expression of who you are while using your unique gifts, talents and voice to build a profitable, purpose-driven business.

Dream big.

What does that dream lifestyle look like for you? 

For me, it’s spending time with friends and family, hiking or biking, sipping hot tea in one of the mountain lodges while hubby and kiddos work the slopes, reading a good piece of non-fiction cozied up on my couch, cooking for company, and rockin’ out my favorite Broadway showtunes in the shower. (Oh, and we’re known to have family dance parties on days when everyone needs a little boost!)

 
 

Hey there! I'm Rachel.

about-me-family-image.png

I’m a triplet mama, connector, community-builder, speaker, business coach and multipreneur.

From a young age, I was interested in women’s empowerment and fascinated by women who changed the world.

At age 12, I wrote a speech about those women who fought for our freedoms. Women by the likes of Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, and others. As a preteen, I was inspired by their courage and strength to stand up for what they wanted and the example they set, showing me that I could be and do anything I set my mind to.

I learned this, too, from the powerful women in my family.

It was during those formative years that I learned that we are all in charge of our own success.

I guess you could say I was born an entrepreneur.

Business-building is in my genes. Shows up in my Enneagram. And long preceded any thoughts I had of starting my own business.

No matter where you are in your business journey, I’m here to help you bring your business and lifestyle vision to life!
