You know all those things that are THE WORST? Networking. Sales. Self Promotion. Public speaking. Pricing. Saying no. Setting boundaries. Making asks. Working with frustrating people. Dating. Cleaning. To Do Lists. Email. Death. Doing things that scare you. Doing things you're not good at. Doing things you have no business doing. Doing things you don't want to do but have to. Remembering which filter needs changing when?
Saya Hillman makes all those things less worse; enjoyable even.
Called “Accessible Oprah,” Saya has run her lifestyle business Mac & Cheese Productions℠ since 2004.
Mac & Cheese transforms adulting into a good thing by creating spaces that build connection: to others, to opportunities, and to self. Through events, courses, keynotes, workplace facilitation, products, 1 on 1 consulting, group coaching, writings, and community, Mac & Cheese inspires people to redefine "success," to learn, grow, and become better versions of themselves, and to design their lives to best fit themselves. Aka to design their Life of Yes℠.
Think adult recitals, adult kindergarten, adult summer camp...
An Evanston, Illinois native, Montessori and Boston College graduate, and Chicago resident, Saya’s a joyful and self-assured wallflower turned wildflower who spent 10 months in the womb, was born at home alone (on purpose), and was raised by an entrepreneurial odd duck single mom. Saya was one of Brazen Careerist’s Top Twenty Young Professionals to Watch, has been featured in Forbes and The New York Times, and is a TEDx speaker and a wannabe NYT best-selling author (finishing her memoir is a slippery lil' sucker!).
