Action Starter
Finish one big business goal in 4 weeks with Accountability Coaching
Only 9 spots
Grab yours before they’re gone.
Always on but never finished? Let’s break the cycle
Admit it, you’re so done with every month ending the same.
At first, fresh goals get you oh so excited! You pull out pens, software, and sticky notes like hanky panky toys.
You get messy. Go hard.
Then somewhere in the middle? You get lost.
You’re tired.
Wondering when it will end.
When you finally hit your goal, the climax is more disappointing than Sex and the City 2.
Like “yay” but also “was that it?”
You didn’t enjoy getting there. You barely remember it.
You clean up, put your gear away and promise yourself it will be better next time.
It never is.
Action Starter turns that limp finish into a juicy, lingering win.
Want next month loaded with steady progress?
(Not another rerun of procrasto-faffing and empty promises.)
Action Starter is a high-touch Accountability Coaching sprint.
Where we map out a plan, shrink your self-doubt and savour every win.
All while nudging you toward that important business goal you keep parking.
Accountability Coaching feels like this:
Morning light spills over the desk, coffee aroma perfumes the room, and Taskade pings with today’s task.
You tap it, slip into focused flow, drag it to “Done,” and ride that sweet dopamine pop.
No second-guessing.
No shiny-object rabbit holes.
Just action.
Mid-arvo worries?
You drop a voice note,
“Kara, I’m not sure what to do about this”.
I’ll volley back a plan and some reassurance, or a permission slip to drop the task that’s draining you.
You put your phone down, smiling, and crack on with the work.
Emily loved Action Starter so much, she joined again!
15 enquiries, 3 sales and 600 subscribers in two weeks 😮👏
Despite sick kids, sleep deprivation, pricing doubts and taking time off to celebrate her birthday, she smashed out a full website refresh and lead magnet funnel in four weeks.
“I was feeling stuck in all the backend processes. My mind was consumed by the mammoth task of updating my website.
Having Kara to chat through everything and break it down into steps, made it feel achievable. Just getting started without knowing all the answers to everything was a big mindset shift for me. Now I feel more confident to just get in and start.
And also how to break it down into small steps so I know where to begin and where I am heading, with a big project.”
Week 1
“I’ve got heaps done. It’s going so well.
Thank you 🥳”
Week 2
“I’m ahead of schedule now. But I’m a little bit stuck on how the scheduling’s gonna work. And I’m hung up on my pricing.”
After my voice message:
“This is such great advice. I’ll give that a go.”
Week 3
“I got my first booking at the new price!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳”
Week 4
“I’ve absolutely enjoyed this time so so much!
I can’t even put it into words how amazing it’s been. I’ve got so much done, and I just love your voice messages.
Thank you so much!
I’d love to resign for next month 😃”
“I am proud of making so much happen in so little time. I definitely would have kept putting it off or giving up entirely if I didn't have Kara in my corner. You’ll get so much done with Kara cheering you on. And you’ll feel like a rockstar with her amazing pep talks!”

Why “pushing through” keeps back-firing
Thought → Feeling → Behaviour
When you think, “What if no one buys it?” → you feel dread → so you doom-scroll, snack attack or start tinkering with fonts at 10 p.m.
Your business progress blocker isn’t a skill gap. (We both see the neon Capable Queen halo floating above your head.)
You’re not getting anywhere because of the sneaky mind gremlins draining your focus faster than a phone on 3%.
Here’s what we do inside Action Starter
- Catch the whisper – Ping me a voice note the second the gremlin starts its distracting striptease.
- Flip the script – I fire back a reality check, reframe, and one easy micro-step.
- Lock the habit – Repeat this process until the new thought fires on autopilot.
Result? Doubts shrivel, momentum hums, and you glide from half-done to fully wrapped long before the sticky notes stage a mutiny.
Why team up with me?
Doing it alone, you’ll force yourself to get moving…eventually. It only takes 11 extra coffees, a week of scrolling seek.com and the itching desire to burn your entire business to the ground.
With me, you’ll have a personal pep-talker spotting energy vampires, staking them, and handing you back your inner power.
Within minutes you’re back in flow, gremlins gagged, riding a wave of task-ticking satisfaction.
Can I get an “Oh yes, baby!”
Hi, I’m Kara Stokes
Brand Message & Accountability Coach, beach lover, lemon tart fiend and serial cheer-squadder.
During my 7+ years of word-wrangling and brand message coaching, I’ve found the real handbrake on small biz growth isn’t a lack of knowledge.
It’s a yo-yo productivity diet.
Too many business owners start strong, stall, then fizzle out, leaking hours and cash each time.
Now I help businesses trade stop-start jolts for smooth, repeatable drive – even when life tries to block your progress.
You need me as your Accountability Coach if:
Your brain’s buzzing but your project’s lingering
You’ve got idea overload and task hopping is your standard mode of operation.
You’re busy AF.
But still, your one big goal loiters in the corner.
Your plans are messy, hard to explain and never quite work out
Offers, sticky notes, and “someday” tasks fill your calendar.
But there’s zero structure to make them move.
You crave human backup
You’re longing for a person to talk to about your business who gets what you’re going through on speed dial.
(Not an AI bot designed to ‘yes, ma’am’ all day. Or waste your precious time in a 12-seat Zoom free-for-all.)
Are you nodding along?
Or sighing in relief because someone finally sees you?
Let me hold space for you and your business.

Calendar jam-packed?
Action Starter slides right in
Because Action Starter runs alongside any mastermind, course or coach you’re already working with, it turns what you’re learning into practical action.
Planning a rebrand or website refresh?
Lock in dates, pick the must-do tasks, and I’m on tap with links, resources, and a fresh pair of eyes. No more flirting with ideas. Jump in, pump away, then glide to a neat finish – site live and brand glowing.
Launching a new offer?
Slice the project into bite-sized steps, bounce ideas in voice notes, and keep your energy steady during your biggest sales push.
Social media killing your mojo?
Set a posting rhythm, batch tasks, and let your content slide out on schedule. (No more 10 p.m. caption panic.)
Got a course on the go?
Pull the takeaways from each lesson into a tight action list. Regular check-ins keep you applying, in the groove, and crossing the line.
Part of a mastermind?
Perfect. Bring their big-picture insights. We’ll split them into a smooth plan with deliciously simple tasks.
Action Starter supports any mastermind, tools or communities you already use. It won’t do the work for you. But it keeps you moving, smiling, and sure-footed while you smash out your work.
Pocket-sized pep-talks from me → clear next step for you → visible progress on that goal you’ve been dodging.
Less stress, more progress.
Feeling lighter 🙂 I’m so proud of seeing it through to the end and finishing things. If I hadn’t had you keeping me accountable, I wouldn’t have pushed myself to figure out the technical side of things like I did. And I wouldn’t be ready to launch my new offer. Thank you, Kara, for everything you’ve done and for your encouragement. I’ve learnt a lot, and it’s been so nice having you in my corner.

Got a question?
How much time will I need?
We’ll set your time commitment on the Kick-Off Call. It could be 30 minutes a day or a focused weekly block. You set the agenda, and I hold you to it.
What if I’m already in a program?
Fab! Action Starter fuels those lessons and keeps the wheels turning between calls.
Do you offer refunds?
No, this works when both of us commit. If your primary goal isn’t ticked after four weeks, you’ll receive one extra week of coaching, free, to cross the finish line.
Why only nine spots?
You get personal, real-time help. Capping numbers keeps the quality high.
