You have probably been told that business requires a certain kind of thinking. Analytical. Linear. Logical. The kind of thinking that produces tidy spreadsheets, bullet-pointed strategies, and fifty-page documents that no one actually reads after they are written. You may have tried to force yourself into this mold. You may have purchased business planning software, downloaded templates, or stared at a blank document waiting for inspiration that never came.

You have probably been told that business requires a certain kind of thinking. Analytical. Linear. Logical. The kind of thinking that produces tidy spreadsheets, bullet-pointed strategies, and fifty-page documents that no one actually reads after they are written. You may have tried to force yourself into this mold. You may have purchased business planning software, downloaded templates, or stared at a blank document waiting for inspiration that never came. And you may have concluded, quietly or not so quietly, that business simply is not for you. Jennifer Lee believes otherwise.

Lee's approach is different. She does not ask you to become someone else. She asks you to bring your full creative self to the planning process. She shows you how to create a business plan that looks like you, that reflects your values, that you actually want to look at and engage with. A plan that lives on your wall or in…
