Start to Scale

For women building a business, reworking a business, or trying to figure out what comes next.

Start to Scale is a small-group, in-person business intensive led by Karoline Rose Bohannan. It’s built for women who are ready to take their business seriously and work through the decisions keeping them stuck.

You’ll look closely at what you’re building, what needs to change, what the numbers need to do, and where your attention should go next. Start to Scale is open to women in any industry, whether you’re still shaping an idea or already running a business that needs more clarity and direction.

First Herd Foundations

For those preparing to start their first cattle herd and wanting to make those early decisions with more confidence.

First Herd Foundations is an online course designed to help women better understand what it takes to build a cattle herd from the ground up. It gives you a clearer starting point, so you can think through the choices ahead before investing time, money, and resources.

Whether you’re still planning or have recently taken your first steps, this course helps make the process feel less overwhelming and gives you a stronger foundation to build from.
