On February 27th, 2020 Make March Matter (MMM), the best, most supportive online network of people came into being for small business owners struggling to make sense of what was happening as the Covid-19 pandemic hit. Now two years on, that group set up by Jennifer Shinkai just to get through March, has blossomed into a vibrant community that continues to be a source of inspiration, joy and connection for its members. Today we’d like to introduce you to some of them!

In this episode you’ll hear:

  • The importance of having a network to be part of when tough times hit
  • The benefits of joining a network where people come from a variety of work and life situations
  • Why Jennifer chose not to monetise the group
  • How light accountability helped to give structure to the week when that had disappeared from suddenly working from home
  • The benefits of the MMM “pause” and other self care skills that are practiced in MMM meetings
  • How to leave with grace, when it’s time to move on to a new “season”
  • Eric’s brilliant question that he asks himself when he’s making a decision
  • What does a sustainable community look like and succession planning
