Meet Your Mentor: Michelle Simmons

Hi, I’m Michelle - fellow maker, small business owner, and your mentor inside Momentum Makers.

Having built my own product-based business, Slow North, from the ground up over the last decade, I know the real challenges and rewarding moments that come with running a business. I’m passionate about supporting fellow entrepreneurs, sharing what works, and helping you navigate the tough spots with confidence and clarity.

My biggest joy is seeing fellow business owners regain their spark, find community, and celebrate new wins…big or small. That’s exactly why I started Momentum Makers. I’m here to facilitate honest conversations, share what’s worked (and what hasn’t), and connect you with the experts, peers, and resources that move you forward.

You’re in the right place, and I can’t wait to welcome you in!

What do founding members get?

As a founding member you lock in the best rate we’ll ever offer, get early access to resources and events, and have a real say in what the community becomes. Your ideas and feedback help shape how we grow and what we focus on.

What’s included with membership?

You get access to a private online space where we host group coaching calls, hands-on workshops, live Q&As, and a friendly forum. We cover marketing, wholesaling, finances, systems, mindset and more. It’s a place to share ideas, get feedback, and connect with others who get it.

Will there be space for casual connections?

Absolutely. We host relaxed coffee chats and open forum times where you can come as you are, meet other members, chat about wins and roadblocks, or just hang out and recharge. These sessions are a great way to connect and get the most out of the group.

I’m new to online groups. Will I fit in?

Definitely. This is a kind, supportive place. Everyone’s figuring things out and helping each other, no judgment.

Nope. Momentum Makers is a global community. You can join and access everything no matter where you are.

If I’m not ready now, can I join later?

Founding member spots and rates are only open for a short time during launch. You can certainly join later, but those special discounts are for the early group.
