Hi there,
I'm Mariah

I’m the founder of The Strategy Studio Co.—and the heart behind this space.

For years, I balanced growing an online brand and running a brick-and-mortar boutique while raising three kids. Along the way, I learned this: building a meaningful business shouldn’t come at the cost of your life.
That realization led me here—to help other business owners skip the burnout phase and build with intention from the start.

Now, I help small business owners and creatives find clarity, confidence, and a rhythm that actually fits their real life. Whether you're just getting started or you’ve been at this a while but feel stuck in the weeds, you’re in the right place.

Inside The Strategy Studio, I offer strategy sessions, digital tools, and down-to-earth guidance to help you grow a business that feels aligned—not overwhelming.

When I’m not mapping out content ideas or brainstorming offers, you’ll find me soaking up slow mornings with my family, catching Midwest sunsets, or sketching out our next home project—always with coffee in hand.

If you’re ready to build something meaningful—and actually enjoy the process—I’d love to meet you inside The Strategy Studio.

MY PURPOSE IN
LIFE & WORK

 

I believe success doesn’t come from hustling harder—it comes from clarity, alignment, and strategy that honors your season. Through The Strategy Studio, I guide small business owners toward a version of growth that actually fits their life. Because we weren’t meant to do it all, but we were meant to do it well.

This work isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am. And I’m so glad you’re here.

 

Where It All Began

I built my second business in the middle of motherhood, messes, and a million moving pieces. What started as a women's fashion boutique became something so much more—a lesson in grit, growth, and what it really means to build something meaningful.

Now? I’m all about helping others do the same.
Through The Strategy Studio, I support small business owners who are ready to stop winging it and start showing up with clarity and ease—without burning out in the process.

I’ve learned the hard way: you don’t need more hustle.
You need the right rhythm.

 

What I Believe In


Success isn’t just about sales or strategy. It’s about building a business that feels like you.
I believe in working with intention, leading with heart, and creating space for the things that matter most—like slow mornings, real connection, and being present for the life you're building outside of your brand.

The Strategy Studio Was Born From…


Years of messy middle moments, late nights, and learning what not to do.
After running a boutique, raising babies, and doing all the things—something shifted.
I knew I didn’t want to build another hustle-heavy brand. I wanted freedom, clarity, and alignment—and I knew other women did too.
That’s how The Strategy Studio came to life.
A place where purpose meets profit. Where clarity is the game-changer. And where small businesses finally feel like home.

I believe the most meaningful businesses are built from the inside out.
My purpose? To help others find clarity—so they can create with confidence, lead with intention, and live a life that actually feels like theirs.

 

Why I Do What I Do


I know what it’s like to feel pulled in a million directions—trying to grow a business while raising babies, chasing dreams, and keeping up with life.
I created The Strategy Studio to make space for another way.
One rooted in rhythm, not hustle.
One that supports your life—not swallows it.
So if you're looking for strategic clarity and a business that finally feels aligned—you’re in the right place.
