FAQs
How much time do I need?
2-3 hours per week is plenty. You can go slower if life is full or go deeper if you have the space to.
Can we do live calls as a group?
Cohort calls will run monthly on Zoom once the group reaches minimum numbers. Replays provided for those who can't make the time/date. The current coourse advertised is 'self-paced' with one 90min community call that we are offering included in the standard fee once the group hits minimum numbers. The group cohort with 3 x live calls will likely run in December/January 2026.
Is this therapy or career coaching?
It’s a structured, reflective course with practical tasks. It pairs well with coaching but isn’t therapy.
Will this help me get a job in the social impact sector?
This course will help you clarify direction, network well, and pitch your value - common precursors to transitionary role shifts. You'll learn more about which direction to take and the skills and mindset necessary for change.
Refunds if things change?
Self‑Study: No, afraid not. It's flexible and if no proves not to be the time you'll have access to the course for as long as you need.
Group Study Option: transfer to a future date if plans change (7+ days’ notice from start date).
COMING SOON The Purpose Quest: Ask about bursaries for those on low incomes, and payment plans to spread payments.
ABOUT THE TEAM
Hi, I'm Andrea Gamson.
Meet Andrea, author of Social Starters: Make Changing The World Your Business.
A former media professional who left advertising to help people change the world through business, Andrea has spent the last 15 years building movements, ventures and programmes at the intersection of purpose and enterprise.
She began in magazines and newspapers, drawn to the power of media to shape society, before becoming disillusioned with its abuses of power. That led her to Kenya, India, Sri Lanka and Brazil, where she worked alongside grassroots entrepreneurs tackling poverty and injustice in their own communities.
Back in the UK, Andrea co-founded the award-winning _SocialStarters in 2014, connecting corporate professionals with underserved social entrepreneurs worldwide. She later launched NetShift CIC, a female-led sustainability consultancy training the next generation of climate-positive leaders; Social Impact Support, a social enterprise consultancy; and Regenerous, a talent development programme rooted in skill-sharing and peer support.
Andrea’s work continues to champion changemakers who build thriving communities, proving business can be a force for good.

"Social Starters is a life-changing book and experience. I switched from being a consultant in the film & music industries to now becoming an olive oil producer and regenerative agriculture advocate. The journey is transformative and the tools in this book really work!"
Philippine will be joining Andrea for the group sessions, and will additionally be offering 121 support for those who would like additional mentorship throughout the journey.
