Because what you’ve lived and learned deserves to be put to work.

You may know you have something valuable to offer, yet struggle to explain it. Perhaps you’ve built a business but hesitate when it’s time to talk about your services. Or you’re ready to be more visible, but wonder what to say once people are listening.

I understand. I’ve spent years helping people find the words, confidence, and direction to take their next step.

I’m Julie Fairhurst, founder of Women Like Me Media. I help women turn their experience into a message they believe in, communicate the value of their work, and become more visible to the people they can help.

You didn’t come this far to stop

WHY WORK WITH JULIE

I bring experience you can use. Because I've lived it.

For 34 years, I worked in sales, marketing, and real estate. I served approximately 3,000 clients, became a number-one salesperson, and trained and led other salespeople.

That work taught me how to listen, build trust, explain value, and ask for the business. It also taught me that a confident sales conversation can be honest and kind.

Today, I bring those skills together with storytelling and publishing. Through Women Like Me, I’ve helped hundreds of women share their voices, published my 40th collaborative book, and hosted more than 400 interviews.

The numbers matter because they represent real conversations with real people. Every woman brings a different story, a different business, and a different reason for beginning.

I know how much courage it can take to begin.

I grew up in a family that relied on welfare. I stood in food-bank lines, left school in Grade 9, and earned my GED as an adult, then attended college and university. All while raising three little boys as a single mother. My own path has included difficult beginnings and the work of building a life and career beyond them.

I share that with you because I won’t expect your journey to look tidy. We can honor what you’ve been through while staying focused on what you want to create now. You decide which parts of your story you want to share and which parts remain yours.

What working together can look like

Find your message. We can uncover the wisdom in your lived and professional experience and shape it into a story that connects with the work you do.

Sell with confidence. We can make your offer easier to explain and help you invite people to work with you in a way that feels clear and true to your values.

Become more visible. We can prepare you to share your expertise through speaking, interviews, video, and other opportunities that fit your goals.

You don’t have to tackle all three at once. We begin with the place where support would make the biggest difference for you.

You’ll be met as the woman you are.

I’ll listen carefully, ask useful questions, and tell you the truth with care. We’ll look at what you already know, where you’re getting stuck, and what you can do next.

You’ve already done the living and learning. Let’s help the right people understand the value of it.
