Whatever your passion, you’re likely to be here because the work you want to do supports, serves, helps or heals in some way. Basically, it’s work that makes a difference in the world and you know you’re passionate about it but you don’t yet know how to turn that into a profitable business. That’s why I’m here to help.
I hope this will be your first visit of many; this website is designed as an ever-expanding resource for women on their journey of finding and following their passion and ultimately turning that passion to profit by creating their own businesses.

Where do I start?
The best place to start is the Blog where you’ll find short articles on hot topics like: how to fill a workshop, how to overcome procrastination, how to declutter your way of out of overwhelm, and why passion can sometimes be a problem. You can choose from some of the previous favourites (see right) or simply scroll through the Blog section.
From there, you’ll be able to check out some of the services that support women in finding and following their passion, like:
- Turn Your Passion To Profit – both one-to-one mentoring and a group programme
Turn Your Passion To Profit group celebration lunch (2011)
If you’d like a little extra inspiration, check out the Live Events section to see if there’s a talk or workshop coming somewhere near you (and if there’s not – invite me!)
You can also read the award-winning piece, The World Needs Your Passion, along with previously published articles and radio interviews.

A little introduction
Finally, I’d love to say a big “Hello” from me – I’m Corrina Gordon-Barnes and I’ve been self-employed, doing what I love, for six years. I offer this support through my business – You Inspire Me – and I’m a certified coach living in Cambridge, England. To find out a little more about your ‘host’ on this website, visit the About section.
The three most significant elements you’ll notice about the approach here are:
1) Business Savvy. You’ll discover the nuts and bolts of effective business: the systems, the flow and the key principles. Just as you learnt how to do what you so passionately do, you’re equally entitled to find out what works – and what doesn’t work – in the world of business. You’ll become that smart business woman you deep down hope you might be.
2) A Community of Support. You’ll feel connected with and supported by a vibrant community of self-employed women. You can lean into that sisterhood, that tribe, and draw insights and resources from that pool. Together, you’ll connect with the bigger picture, with both its mystery and its guidance.
I’d love to hear more about YOU. Do drop me a line via the Contact section and introduce yourself.
