Why Join Us In The Playhouse?

Members consistently tell me there really isn't anywhere else like it in the Online Business space. We keep it real, but not like "real but still impressive" actually real.

There's no need for posturing. You can come here and leave feeling better. You feel less alone, more valued as a person (not just a business owner), and hopefully you laughed a little... or a lot.

We all think play is important, but it still has a stigma. In here, just showing up, having fun, and being yourself is enough. Because there's more to running a business by yourself than just the how-tos and the numbers of it all.

The numbers are important, but I built The Playhouse for people like me.

We're not trying to exploit anyone, get rich quick, or squash anyone to make more.

We're real humans, who wanna do good work and have a fulfilling life.

We're building businesses to

• provide for ourselves, our families
• donate to a friend's Go Fund Me
• travel and go on adventures
• experience cool things along the way
• and pursue our passions in this late stage capitalist nightmare. 😵‍💫
  (Too heavy? 😅 Sorry bout that... it slips out from time to time.)

My point is, running a business can feel like a lot.

So The Playhouse is here to help you find your people, get visibility, learn new things, be inspired, and figuring out what the heck you're doing next.

You choose the level of People-ing that works for you

I created The Solo Network for less people-ing if you're already busy in your business but would love to join a simple network with quarterly meetups.

The Coworking + Hang Space is hosted in Heartbeat with lots of events, discussion threads, and space to really connect with the members on a deeper level.

Joining the Coworking + Hang Space gives you lifetime access to The Solo Network, so it could be a fun experiment for a year for you to see what happens.

The Solo Network includes:

• Access to Workshops (including my Static 9 Grid + 3 Pinned Posts templates)
• A listing in our Public Directory
• Invites to 4 Networking Parties a year
• Application to be on The Playhouse Podcast Series
• Extended Podcast Episodes
• An invite to an in-person retreat we're planning for 2027

The Coworking + Hang Space includes

• LIFETIME ACCESS to The Solo Network (all the things above)
• 24/7 Coworking Room + Scheduled Coworking
• Monthly Matchups (done personally by Deanna)
• Treasure Box Listing
• Upgraded to Featured Member in our Public Directory
• Thursday Hangouts (12-3pm et)
• Heartbeat community for connecting, chatting, finding collabs, and connecting
• Monday Focus Threads + Friday Win Threads

And that's just the tangible stuff.

There's also the inspiration, encouragement, and feeling of knowing you're not the only human trying to figure out this whole business thing. Here's 10 things members love about The Playhouse.

Business really is better with friends. Come find yours. 💖
