Hi there, I'm Rebecca.
I’m the founder, editor and publisher of Mid-Western Living Magazine - but more than that, I’m a small business owner just like you.
I know what it’s like to juggle a thousand things at once, wear every hat in the business, and push forward with big dreams and a tight budget.
Over the past 15+ years, I’ve built businesses across media, events, and consulting - including a big-city video agency, a virtual online social club and a thriving regional magazine. And over that time I’ve worked as a business coach, speaker and strategist, helping other business owners untangle the mess, get clear on their goals, and move forward with confidence.
Since launching Mid-Western Living, I’ve had the privilege of working with dozens of incredible local businesses - sharing their stories in print, connecting them with new audiences, and cheering them on behind the scenes.
MWL Biz Club is my way of bringing all that experience — and my network of trusted experts — together to support you.
Whether you're building from the kitchen table, running tours across our stunning region, or growing an online brand from your farm shed - you don’t have to do it alone.
Let’s build something brilliant, together.
