BUILD A WORK LIFE YOU DON’T NEED TO MASK FOR
Not Your Business is a membership community for queer, trans & neurodivergent freelancers who want support, accountability and space to grow without hustle culture or performative confidence.
What is Not Your Business?
Where being honest beats being impressive.
Not Your Business is a paid membership built around showing up together.
It’s for freelancers who are early-stage, rebuilding, burnt out, or just tired of pretending they have it all figured out.
It’s not a course.
It’s not a mastermind.
It’s not about grinding harder or being more visible than you want to be.
It is a place to work alongside others, learn in a human way, and feel less alone while running your business.
Jerry thinks you need a 5-year plan.

It’s not your business.

A gentle note on how this works best
Not Your Business works best when you show up sometimes.
You don’t have to attend everything. You don’t have to be visible all the time. Lurking is okay. Life happens.
But this isn’t a passive membership. The value comes from joining sessions, being present when you can, and letting yourself be part of the space.
If this isn’t the right season financially or energetically, that’s okay too.

Are we the right fit?
This community is a good fit if you…
Are queer, trans and/or neurodivergent and want to be in a space where you don’t have to explain yourself
Want community and accountability, not just information to consume alone
Are early-stage, rebuilding, or growing at your own pace
Can show up imperfectly, honestly, and as a whole human
This community might not be for you if…
Don’t feel aligned with a queer-, trans- and neurodivergent-centred space
Are mainly looking for passive content rather than connection
Want fast results, optimisation, or a high-pressure business environment
Don’t have the capacity (time, energy, or money) to engage at all right now
