coren haus  ·  One-to-one mentoring

For women who won the corporate game and want a game of their own.

Your move from corporate leader to founder starts here.

coren haus is a mentoring programme for senior women who reached the top of corporate and are ready to build something of their own.

I know you are tired of

Sitting in rooms full of decisions that have nothing to do with who you have become.

Spending your energy on goals that were never yours, in a structure that was never built for you.

Watching another year go by where the thing you actually want to build is still exactly where it was: in your head.

This still happens because you keep telling yourself you are not ready yet. That you need more certainty, a clearer plan, that building a business now would be reckless.

But there is a way to build something of your own before anything becomes irreversible. What you need is the coren haus programme to help you build the business you have been thinking about, without risking what you have spent years earning.

The programme

This isn't a cookie-cutter mentoring programme. It's a comprehensive method built from scratch for you, with every layer designed by me.

Four pillars that make building a business a structured transformation rather than a blind risk.

01

Positioning

Your business needs to occupy a specific place in your ideal customer's mind. We design your business positioning, completely tailored to you.

02

Identity

You have been defined by a role for a long time. This is where you stop describing yourself by your job title and start recognising the entrepreneur you truly are, based on your values, ambitions, and goals.

03

Mentality

The habits that made you excellent inside a company are not the habits that build one. Together, we work on crafting a fentrepreneur’s mentality and what it takes to build and manage a business.

04

Offer

Authority no longer arrives with your job title. We will build it in your own name, and you will learn to sell your own expertise directly, without having to perform a version of you that no longer fits.

What makes coren haus different

coren haus helps you turn the experience, credibility and expertise you have built in corporate into something of your own, without making an impulsive leap or throwing away what you have worked for.

You test the path before making a commitment, so your decisions are grounded in what actually works for you and your circumstances.

There are no miracle timelines or six-figure promises. The focus is on building something viable while protecting the income, reputation and experience you already have.

You get direct access to me throughout the programme, with space to challenge your thinking, make the decisions that matter and work through what comes next together. Real 1:1 time, real conversations, someone who is actually in it with you.

Who this is for

This is for you if

  • You reached the top of everything you were told to want, and found that something was missing
  • You want your work to mean something again, and to build something you are proud of
  • You are done spending your energy on goals that were never yours
  • You want to own your time, and to decide when, how and with whom you work
  • You want to be known by your own name rather than the one on the badge
  • You have all the recognition you need, and what you want now is relevance
  • You have already built a full life, and you do not want to spend the next decade proving yourself to a company that would replace you tomorrow

This is not for you if

  • You want a guaranteed income replacement instead of a business that reflects who you are
  • You want a template to copy rather than something of your own
  • You want someone else to make business decisions for you
  • You want to stay in corporate and just have a side hustle
  • You are not willing to change how you work

Who is running it

Cibelle Michepud

I spent over twenty years learning how businesses get built. Then I decided to build my own.

Two decades in advertising, media and operations, across international markets. I knew how large businesses worked, but what I didn't know was what it felt like to start something new, with your name on it, and everything to lose.

And I could not find anyone who did.

Every piece of advice assumed I was starting from zero. But I wasn't. I had twenty years behind me, a reputation I had earned, and a great deal I was not willing to risk without thinking it through properly. What I needed was someone who understood that starting something of your own, when you have spent years succeeding at someone else's game, is a completely different problem.

So I built the thing I could not find. That is coren haus.

Today I work with corporate leaders who want to build their own business. Not just using what they know, but building something that fits who they are, what they value, and what they actually want their life to look like.

If that is you, you are in the right place.

Before you ask

FAQs

I have never run a business. Is that a problem?
No. You are not starting from zero. You are starting with a career of leadership, judgement, negotiation and delivery. What is missing is not capability, it is a different game with different rules, and that is learnable.
What if I do not have the entrepreneurial profile?
There is no profile you had to be born with. You have simply never been in a position where it needed to exist. Founder is not a personality type, it is an identity that gets built, and building it is what this programme is for.
What if it's too late for me to start a business?
Your experience is the asset. Most people building a business spend their first years trying to earn credibility. You already have it. The work is turning it into something the market pays for.
I do not know what business to build yet.
That is the first part of the work, not a prerequisite for starting. Deciding what to build is what positioning does, and it is done with evidence rather than by waiting for the answer to arrive on its own.
I have a full time job and a busy life. Do I have the time?
The programme is designed for someone with a full time job and a busy life. It runs on scheduled one-to-one sessions and small consistent decisions between them, not on finding a second working week you do not have.
I am afraid of damaging the reputation I spent years building.
Nothing here is impulsive and nothing becomes irreversible before it has been tested. You build deliberately, and you decide when and how you become visible.
I have never had to sell. I do not think I can.
You have sold ideas, budgets and yourself to people who were difficult to persuade, for most of your career. What you have not done is sell your own expertise directly. That is a specific skill, and it is taught here rather than assumed.
What if I invest in this and it does not work?
No one can promise you an outcome, and anyone who does should worry you. What this removes is the most common reason accomplished women stall in their first year, which is building a business with the instincts of a corporate leader. You leave with a position, an offer and a way of working that are yours to keep.
