Thinking Partner Sessions
Too close to something to see it differently? Sometimes you just need an extra mind in the room
Got something you can't quite see your way through?
Maybe you're...
Too close to a problem to see it differently.
In an industry bubble and need an outside perspective.
Starting out alone or with a co-founder and want another mind to think with.
Sitting on a spark of an idea and want to pressure-test it.
Going round the same thoughts and need a different way in.
Wondering what else might be possible but can't quite get beyond the obvious.
You don't need to arrive with a perfectly formed brief. Bring the thing that's been bothering you, exciting you or going round your head. We'll work it out from there.
How it works
01 — Tell me what's on your mind
Before we meet, I'll send you a short form to get the thinking started. Tell me what you're working on, what's bothering you, what you've tried and what you'd like to get from the session.
02 — We think it through
A focused session to step outside your usual thinking. I'll bring fresh perspectives, creative thinking tools tailored to your challenge, and a healthy dose of questioning to help you see the problem differently.
03 — Work it through
We'll follow the thinking wherever it takes us — whether that's developing an idea, unpicking a problem, exploring an opportunity or simply working out what you're actually trying to solve.
04 — Leave with a plan
Together, we’ll pull together the key thoughts, possibilities and next steps from our session into a simple Whirr plan, so you leave knowing what to explore, what to do next and what might be worth parking for now.
How much?
Sometimes you just need an hour to get unstuck. Sometimes you need someone in your corner for a little longer.
One-off: a focused 60-minute Thinking Partner session.
Ongoing: regular sessions to keep ideas moving, challenge your thinking and help turn good intentions into action.
