Hi. Welcome!
I'M SO PLEASED YOU'VE FOUND
The Learning Lounge
My mission is to support the smallest of independent businesses with practical knowledge and empowering insights, to help you grow a business doing what you love.
By day I'm a marketing coach and consultant, but deep down I'm a maker: a get-your-hands-dirty creator, of both businesses and things.
And my heart belongs to YOU - the small independents with colourful dreams in all shapes and sizes.
- Lee McQueen
This is why I do this.
Caron makes beautiful earrings. Eve's starting out as a life coach. Jess creates handmade cards. Fiona teaches pilates. And Bronwyn creates skin care products from wild-foraged stinging nettles.
All inspiring, beautiful women, working hard to build a life doing something they love.
All deserving of a successful business, whatever success means to them, their lifestyle, and the number of hours a week they have to invest in making that happen.
But you and I both know that the business knowledge, support and advice they need to help them on their way, seems to come in two varieties:
Free, but not always that practical, and often conflicting or confusing.
Or too expensive, making them feel excluded, as though the best info and advice is reserved for people who already have the money they're trying to make!
Enter The Learning Lounge.
Quality and impactful LIVE learning and support that's accessible, available, practical, affordable... and dedicated to helping the tiniest of businesses just like you.
The Learning Lounge offers live bite-sized workshops, a community to share experiences, and access to a wealth of advice, wisdom and inspiration at your fingertips.
Lee's just always there, she's absolutely the champion of your business, and I couldn't hesitate to recommend her.

Who is The Learning Lounge made for?
The Learning Lounge is ideal for micro-businesses:
The tiniest of independent business owners who want to be more successful doing what they love.
The In-between &
On-the-side
Your business runs alongside your full time job or full-on family life, and you want to feel fulfilled and successful in your own way, without wanting to take over the world.
The Maker, Do-er
& Teacher
Perhaps you're creating something, offering a small service, or teaching others what you know, and you'd love to learn how to spread the word so more people can enjoy what you offer.
The Newbie
& Wannabe
You're just starting out or still in the thinking and planning stages, and you're eager to learn everything you can to help you find your feet and get your business off the ground.
Who made The Learning Lounge?
I made The Learning Lounge to offer the smallest of businesses access to quality training, coaching, support and community at a price that makes it as accessible as possible.
I want to empower anyone who wants to, to start, grow and thrive as a small business owner, because I believe that a fulfilled person leaves ripples of happiness wherever they go... and being a part of that is just my little way of making the world a better place!
