“As soon as I walked in, I felt at home. Emily put me at ease the minute I arrived.”
“It's been a real breath of fresh air working with Emily, because she's very down to earth and clearly knows what she's talking about.”
“She's just not like other coaches at all. She's just so much better, in my opinion.”
“My marketing is so much better.”
“If anyone is even slightly considering working with Emily, just spend 5 minutes with her and you'll never go back.”
“My views are reaching over 60,000 now, and this month I've been booked out every weekend.”
“I can't believe in 3 months how far I have come.”
“Having a group of people that get it, because business can be incredibly lonely. It's one of the best that I've done, because it's that accountability.”
“It's absolutely amazing. When you're having a wobble, there's someone there to support you.”
“The way that you work and the way that you share and over-deliver, even in your content that's free.”
“She's directed us, she's guided us and she's held our hand throughout it.”
“If you feel like you don't belong in a room, then this is a space for you. You'll leave this room feeling like the person you are inside.”
“It's just a fabulous opportunity. There were some great women.”
“I love being in spaces where all women are empowered and doing things with their life, not just sitting on the sidelines.”
“Do it. Do it.”

For ambitious women already in business, who are doing absolutely everything themselves
The method I've used for 14 years to help 30,000+ business owners stop working IN their business and start working ON it. Like Nat, who made £34k in 6 months.
Sound familiar?
Real things women told me, word for word, before we worked together.
Here's the truth, lovely
Busy, but not actually moving forward. Invisible online. Discounting to win the work. Stuck somewhere between your ideas and actually doing them. Knowing you're capable of more, and still stuck at the same level.
Another course won't fix it. Posting more won't fix it. Working later definitely won't fix it.
What fixes it is doing the right things in the right order: bring in the right clients, turn them into paying ones, then build the systems and the team so it stops relying on you. That's exactly what I do.
A word, lovely
Busy isn't successful. A full diary and an empty bank account isn't a business, it's a very tiring hobby. I don't want you working harder. I want you working on the right things, in the right order, so your business finally runs without you.Emily Mallender, founder
The EMpowered Method
5 stages, in order. Most women try to skip straight to the freedom. This is how you actually get there.
Profitable leads from dream clients, not time-wasters.
Social media, personal brand, websites, SEO and GEO, networkingEnquiries into paying clients, at the right price.
Sales, offers, pricing, launching, cash and financeThe journey runs itself once the lead comes in.
Systems, procedures, automation, AI, onboarding, timeThe right people, trained, so it doesn't all rely on you.
Hiring, delegation, training, leadershipMore profit, more headspace, and time back for you and your kids.

"She's like a bloody tornado, but one of those lovely, colourful tornadoes that sweeps you up, makes you feel fabulous and feeds you croissants."
"No pressure, no pretence, no making you feel like you've got to be somebody you're not. Not once did I feel like I was at some stuffy business event where everybody's trying to impress everybody else. I came away feeling really quite empowered."
Bev Wainwright, founder of Cleaning Genius AI"She made a point of saying us women and mums always undercharge. This really stuck with me, so I've amended my pricing and got a booking within a week of me changing them."
"Her audits, strategy, and advice have highlighted opportunities I simply hadn't recognised, and she's given me a clear, confident direction for how to move forward."
"There are a lot of business coaches out there but Emily stands out because she's real and she wants to help."
"She helped me merge two separate businesses into one cohesive brand with a clear name and direction. Something I'd been dancing around for months."
"She coached me through my 'video jitters' so I could finally get a great intro video for my business without the usual babbling."
"She is the most genuine, knowledgeable, caring and superior coach I've ever come across."
"It felt like so much more than a branding photoshoot; it felt like a confidence building experience and a chance to step into my business with more self belief."
"I was literally shaking before my shots but Emily is genuinely a true empowerer."
"No judging, just warm and friendly networking with like minded women."
Meet Emily
For 14 years I've coached business owners in the trades, one of the most male-dominated industries in the world, helping them start from scratch, grow, scale and even sell their businesses. I've seen what works, and what just looks good on Instagram.
I also know what it's like to think you have to choose between being a present mum and an ambitious woman in business. You don't. You need the right things, in the right order, and someone in your corner.
Fri 12th March 2027, OEC Sheffield
One full day and one unforgettable night for ambitious women who are done playing small. Keynotes, real connection, free childcare and a red-carpet gala.
"Running your own business can feel like the loneliest job in the world. That is exactly why I created EMpowered Live."

Real messages, comments and reviews from women I work with. Nothing staged.
You're not alone. Kelly said she'd found coaches "worse than useless" before joining Visible & Paid, and her September sales ended up 25% on last year. The difference is I don't hand you theory. You get a plan built for your business, and I hold you to it.
That's exactly why you need this. Everything is built around school hours and real life, and the whole point is to take work off your plate, not add to it.
Start where it makes sense. The EMpire is about £35 a month, an EMpower Hour is £297 + VAT, and Visible & Paid has a monthly option. Staying underpriced is already costing you every single month.
No. Marketing gets the leads in. I also coach sales, pricing, cash, systems, AI, team, training and the mindset that holds it all together. That's the whole method.
I work with service, product and experience businesses: salons, therapists, tutors, estate agents, mortgage advisers, travel agents, trades, makers and tech founders.
Both. Coaching runs on Zoom, with in-person days in Sheffield and Yorkshire. Women join from all over the UK, and I've coached 1:1 clients in Australia, Belgium and Spain.
