Clear strategy. Elegant systems. High performance.

A boutique consultancy for women growing meaningful businesses beyond corporate 

Most women try to solve this with planners, templates, or more pressure.

Is your business supporting you or quietly draining you?

What you actually need is simpler:

✓ A clear plan that respects your reality
✓ Systems built with you, not handed to you
✓ Support that steadies your nervous system instead of spiking it


Instead, we look at the full human leading the business — the mother, the partner, the ambitious woman with a finite amount of capacity and an infinite amount of responsibility.

And for the first time, strategy, operational design, and high-performance coaching sit at the same table because you shouldn’t have to choose between vision and execution.

Without structure, even the smartest women end up over-functioning and under-supported. With it, they reclaim time, mental bandwidth, and the capacity to actually enjoy the business they’ve worked so hard to build.

This is why we always choose the humane option over the hustle, so your vision actually becomes executable.


At Ilza & Co., we don’t reduce you to a productivity problem (because it's rarely that).

Every engagement starts with your cognitive load, your business model, your personal responsibilities, and the vision you’re actually building toward.

First, we map your next 12 months, then we build the systems to support it.

  • A 12-month strategic map built around your real capacity, not theoretical goals
  • Clear priorities so you know what to focus on now, what can wait, and what to stop doing
  • A custom CEO dashboard built inside your actual tools (Asana, ClickUp, or Trello)
  • A KPI tracker so progress is visible instead of living in your head
  • One week of real-time implementation support so the plan actually gets used
  • A 30-day Momentum Check-In to refine, troubleshoot, and keep things moving

my story

With over 20 years of experience in operations and strategic planning, I help ex-corporate entrepreneurs build businesses that run with clarity, structure, and calm.

My work blends corporate-level strategy with capacity-based planning to bring together precision and warmth, structure and space, data and intuition. The result is a way of working that actually supports the person running the business.

I don’t hand you a plan and wish you luck. I work beside you to untangle what isn’t working, design what needs to exist, and build systems that fit how you think, lead, and live.

Together, we create businesses that feel organized, sustainable, and aligned with the future you’re building without burning you out along the way.
