Earth centered entrepreneur mini series
Get the support you need to grow your anti-capitalist business sustainably and in community with others!
Join herbal apothecary owner Nico Lebreux for monthly online meetups AND for a 3 part online series in October 2025!
The second Wednesday of every month is our online meetup for Earth Centered Entrepreneurs! Join together with other small business owners to network, ask questions, share ideas, and support each other. We will begin with introductions at 12:30 and see what topics come up from there. This is a sliding scale community event open to anyone who owns their own business or dreams of doing so one day! $15-$35 with a suggested price of $25. Sign up for our next meeting here!
You probably feel the call towards entrepreneurship for a multitude of reasons - longing for more flexibility in your schedule, being completely unsatisfied in your day job, wanting more time with loved ones, desiring to contribute something meaningful to the world, feeling the pull to share your skills with others, and so many more!
But then it feels very confusing about where to start, overwhelming on how to actually make money, and daunting to even function in a sustainable earth centered way when we see all around us how capitalism, patriarchy, white supremacy, and heteronormativity is harming ourselves, each other, plants, animals, and the planet themself.
This dynamic and inspiring three part online program - consisting of guidance, community, and action steps - will help you be your authentic self, transform your thoughts to better support you, and sustainably build your future.
You will radically shift your relationship with your business and money, lean into the support of other earth centered small business owners, and get clear action steps on how to move forward.
It’s strategy AND spirit / mindfulness AND money / caring for yourself AND supporting others.
Earth Centered Entrepreneur will support you in finding your way from struggling and unsure to confident and bold with a clear vision, thriving community, solid foundation, and an offering that you can’t wait to share!
You deeply desire to support other people and the planet through your products or services.
You are craving a community of like hearted small biz owners for collaboration and support.
You offer a product or service online, in person, or both.
You are in the daydream phase of your business, you are just getting started OR
You are a seasoned entrepreneur that desires focus, accountability, and community.
You are ready to make more $$, have a positive impact on your community, and live a fun + spacious life.
I’m a queer neurodivergent community herbalist, mom, herbal apothecary owner, and earth centered entrepreneur that helps people more deeply connect with the earth, source energy, their communities, and their multidimensional selves through herbalism, intuitive movement, community gatherings, meditation, and self awareness.
I have been an entrepreneur for almost 20 years - owning many businesses including a vintage clothing store, an eponymous sustainable handmade clothing line, an online holistic wellness membership + 1:1 self care mentorship, leading international yoga retreats, hosting life transition ceremonies, and my current business Wild Heart Herb House which is a brick + mortar herbal apothecary in New Bedford Massachusetts.
Wild Heart Herb House has been open since October 2023 and in that time we have hosted dozens of classes + workshops on a myriad of topics, welcomed numerous artists + healing practitioners into our collaborative space, created over 30 house made herbal products, and hosted a very successful (yet very rainy) herbalism festival!
It is my passion and mission to empower earth centered humans (just like you!) to live the life that they dream of living through wholistic, sustainable, reciprocal, connective, collaborative, and anti-capitalist business practices.
We need your gifts + skills out in the world now more than ever!!!
In our first class we will get to one another and discuss the many ways in which you can build your business on a foundation of support including:
An anti-capitalist business approach
Self care, pleasure, and rest as a radical act
You don’t have to do everything
How to make your business work for you
Finding and creating the time
Getting out of force and into the flow
Relying on others for support and guidance
You may struggle in your relationship with money or just avoid it all together which is not helping you make more of it! In our second class we will shift that by focusing on:
Shifting your relationship with money
What to charge for your products and services
How to pay yourself
Business bank accounts
Bookkeeping and taxes
What to spend money on to grow your business
Legal business structures
No business operates alone- there are so many others that you will rely on during your entrepreneurial journey. Learn the many different ways you may choose to connect with others.
Building networks of support
Communicating your offer with ease
Engaging in reciprocal relationships
Putting yourself where you want to be
Letting your body, heart, and spirit guide you
Tapping into your innate creativity
Three Wednesdays - October 15, 22, 29 - from 6-7:30pm est (who I am I kidding they will most likely go to 8)
Live on Zoom with recordings available the next day
Class format will be as follows: We will begin with a calming, grounding, intention setting meditation and a few minutes of upper body stretching (from wherever you are sitting) then move into a class style workshop where I will teach on that evening’s theme/topic. I may or may not do this slide presentation style. Questions and conversation are welcome as I teach and there will be time at the end for additional questions. After each class you will receive home practice assignments to take what you learned and put it to use in your business!
Class topics are still being determined. I can feel them floating around me in the ether but they haven’t landed just yet! (This is actually how I regularly work and is a good example of creating systems and accepting strategies that work for you!) Topics will include: cultivating community, building an business that’s authentic to you, creating pathways for opportunities, money money money - how to get it /store it /spend it /think about it, legalities, creating products/services, what to spend your time actually doing, and I’m sure much more.
Suggested Price is $145 with a sliding scale adjustment of $95-245. What this means is that if you are able to pay $145 please do, but if you are not you can pay anywhere from $95-145. AND if you can easily pay more than $145 please do! Money is worth different things to different people and I want to make this program accessible to more people, which is why we offer sliding scale.
“If citizenship is a matter of shared beliefs, then I believe in the democracy of species. If citizenship means an oath of loyalty to a leader, then I choose the leader of the trees. If good citizens agree to uphold the laws of the nation, then I choose natural law, the law of reciprocity, of regeneration, of mutual flourishing.” - Robin Wall Kimmerer from Braiding Sweetgrass
