My sweet spot is speaking to solopreneurs, personal brands and course creators about how to do profitable online marketing that doesn’t make you feel creepy. I tackle topics people care about but don’t know how to talk about. Plus I’m funny!
I almost never do summits or bundles — protecting the integrity of my email list is priority, and these events rarely meet my criteria for consent-based email marketing
If your last five guests were also slim, thirty-something white ladies with great hair, I will politely ask you to give my interview spot to someone who can provide another perspective
As a person in recovery from cults and coercive-control, I cannot participate in events that promote multi-level marketing
If you want me to teach in your group or create a special bonus, awesome — fill out this intake form and we’ll talk about what that might look like!
STILL WITH ME? COOL.

NOTE
I don’t use the word “ethics” because I’m not an ethicist! Leave that to the professionals. What I do is help business owners figure out why they feel weird about certain marketing tactics, and give them options so that next time they can make a different choice.
MY GREATEST HITS
Girlboss-in-recovery Tarzan Kay is the writer of Emails, but better, a much-loved newsletter full of addictive stories and occasionally embarrassing tell-alls from the front lines of online business. Today she teaches consent-based business strategies to mission-driven business owners who are tired of cringing at their own marketing.
Tarzan spent years quietly dismantling her 7-figure bossbabe empire and rebuilding it around consent-based strategies, great writing, and people over profits. She's also the host of the Girlboss Apology Tour, an interview series that reckons with what the girlboss era got right, what it got wrong, and what comes next.
She also leads community singing experiences for groups of hundreds, including people who are convinced they can't sing, as well as a monthly grief song circle in the Niagara region. If you ask her for a song, she will almost certainly say yes. She lives in Ontario with her two children and two canoes.
