I started dreaming of Supportive Strategy Co. because I believe small businesses deserve support that feels human, honest, and encouraging—not overwhelming. This work is my way of showing up for others the same way I once needed someone to show up for me. I’m so thrilled to begin this journey. I know this space because I live it, and that lived experience shapes everything I offer here.

About

Supportive Strategy Co. was created for small business owners who care deeply about what they do but feel unsure how to show up online in a way that feels aligned and sustainable.

I believe social media works best when it’s honest, intentional, and rooted in real connection — not trends, gimmicks, or constant selling.

My approach is supportive and practical, meeting you where you are and helping you move forward with clarity and confidence.

Support for small businesses that feels human, honest, and practical.

My journey started in 2010 with a photography business.

Since then, I've worn many hats: photographer, mom, creator, chef for hire, social media manager, and community builder.

I've also built platforms that connect thousands of people with local businesses, including Akron Mom and Kid, Akron Foodie, Keeping It Real Social Club, and social media management for local businesses.

Somewhere along the way, people started asking me for help with Instagram.

How do I grow?

What should I post?

Is this working?

Can you look at my page?

Those conversations became my favorite part of what I do.

Today, Supportive Strategy Co. brings together everything I've learned to help hardworking small businesses build confidence, create meaningful content, and grow in a way that feels authentic.

Treats + Trinkets with Nat

2-4 hours session

Almost always, the best ideas genuinely come to me while spending time in the wild with my friends, in the community.

We'll spend a few hours together visiting local small businesses, grabbing coffee or lunch, and talking through your business. We'll brainstorm ideas, solve problems, celebrate what's already working, and create a simple plan for what comes next.

Think of it as a creative reset—with someone who's genuinely want to be in your corner.
