Our Story...

Bronwyn started Boost in February of 2018. The company she was working for was closing, and the biggest change in her life was about to happen…she was about to have a baby. She was unsure what the transformative journey of motherhood would bring. So, she was hesitant/scared/unmotivated to start applying to jobs in the field. After a vulnerable conversation with a friend she was able to trim down that she truly loved being a therapist and educator. And realizing that she felt so deeply that she needed to nurture this inner healer, she decided to start Boost. Boost started as a blog and quickly the universe began to offer incredible gifts that reinforced this brain spark of a company.  Bronwyn quickly felt the rush of energy and sat down and formulated goals. She remembers laughing as they were putting ideas on paper because they felt so outlandish at the time. Boost was in its infancy...it was a blog...and a half-bad blog at that. The blog lacked a genuine voice. Boost needed a physical space. Boost lacked any prospects. There wasn’t a logo, or a website, or an inkling as to how to put it all together. Bronwyn was pregnant, working a full-time job, and not very motivated to add one more thing to her plate. But after those goals were on paper, it’s as if Boost became its own living and breathing thing. There was no turning back.

As Bronwyn continued to explore what Boost could be, she realized that Boost needed more.  Boost needed a grounding force.  Bronwyn had seen Toni in passing at Regis University (their graduate program) and was now working with her at the same company (that one that was about to close). They had chatted about life and gotten along.  Dinners together became more frequent and soon Bronwyn and Toni started working on the same team. At that point, Bronwyn saw it. Toni was real. She was smart, compassionate, authentic, quick, and an incredible therapist.  Bronwyn knew she needed to grab this star quickly, or she would be gone…onto a different brilliant career paving the way for other people and organizations.  The two had become close enough that Bronwyn knew she needed to take a risk, so she asked her if she had interest in joining in with Boost.  Like a romantic proposal, Toni beamed and said yes.  They both finished their jobs.  Bronwyn had a beautiful baby girl. Toni moved on to another organization.  Boost paused. That pause felt tough and yet was so important in gaining traction. After 5 months of learning how to be a mom, Bronwyn and Toni felt ready to move past being a company that solely posted in Instagram and turn their knowledge into the practice and agency they dreamed.  Bronwyn started seeing clients again. They gained 7 brilliant consultants. They started doing trainings with some reputable companies. All the while, Toni kept her 9-5 until she, too, had a beautiful baby girl. 

Initiate 2nd pause.  This pause showed them their edge.  The edge forced them to decide to fully commit/believe or stay steady and keep it as a side gig.  This second pause offered space for Toni to leave her 9-5 and commit to Boost full-time.  Fast-forward to today, Boost is a fully operational—and thriving—as counseling, coaching, and consulting firm. They have our own office (not shared)! They’ve surpassed their 5-year business goals (at 2 years). They both have thriving private practices. They are offering both monthly trainings and workshops.  Their first workbook launched this year.  AND they get to spend most of their time with their thriving baby girls. Life is good.
