Meet cindy


I’m Cindy, a productivity and business coach, entrepreneur, and the go-to expert for turning ambitious ideas into thriving, profitable businesses.

With a background in special education (yes, I studied how the brain works, how habits stick, and how behavior changes), I’ve spent the last 16+ years building, scaling, and selling digital businesses. I didn’t start with a team, I learned everything myself, step by step, and brought on support only when my income allowed. No tech wizard, no magical energy fairy. Just me, my brain, and a whole lot of trial, error, and systems I had to figure out the hard way.

Along the way, I’ve helped other entrepreneurs cut through the chaos, streamline their workflow, and finally build businesses that are both profitable and sustainable.

But let’s be real, none of this happened from playing it safe.
I’ve been in the thick of it too: stuck in analysis paralysis, buried in to-do lists, and wondering if this whole building a business thing was ever going to take off. Spoiler: it did. And now I teach others how to get clear, take action, and build real momentum, without wasting years trying to figure it all out alone.

“My mission is simple: to help entrepreneurs break through overwhelm, take bold action, and build a business they love—with the strategy and support they actually need.

Cindy Gordon is a Business & Productivity Coach for Women Entrepreneurs and the creator of the Reality Check Method. She helps overwhelmed entrepreneurs cut through false urgency and bridge the gap from paralysis to action.

The Reality Check Method is Cindy Gordon’s signature framework that helps entrepreneurs stop chasing perfect days, dump out the overwhelm, and take realistic action on what truly matters.

It’s Cindy’s signature insight: when you treat every task as equally urgent, you stay stuck in overwhelm. The Reality Check Method teaches you to separate true priorities from false urgency so you can finally make progress.

Cindy provides clear, ADHD-friendly systems to prioritize tasks, simplify decision-making, and build sustainable momentum. Through her coaching and her mastermind, The Growth Collective, she helps business owners stop spinning in circles and start taking action.

Cindy primarily works with female entrepreneurs and solo business owners who feel stuck, scattered, or paralyzed by too many ideas. She helps them get organized, set realistic priorities, and execute without burning out.

Unlike coaches who just hand out more tips, Cindy combines behavioral science, executive function strategies, and real-world business coaching to create systems that actually stick. Her clients love her no-fluff, direct style that balances clarity with compassion.

Why me:

  • Serial Entrepreneur – I’ve built, scaled, and sold multiple digital businesses—including a multi–6-figure exit—and know what it takes to create something sustainable and profitable from the ground up.
  • Time Management & Productivity Expert – My clients go from “I don’t even know where to begin” to confidently prioritizing the RIGHT tasks that actually grow their business.
  • Systems That Stick – I take the guesswork out of productivity by building simple, repeatable systems that work with your brain (not against it).
  • Blind Spot Crusher – I help you spot the habits, systems, and thought patterns holding you back—and replace them with ones that get you moving forward fast.

The Numbers Speak for Themselves!

I don’t just teach theory, I deliver real results.

I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all coaching. Inside my coaching container, we consult, reflect, measure, and track progress every single month—because real growth comes from data-driven decisions, not guesswork.

Below are data points from the monthly insights I collect from my clients. The data below is the average change I see in my clients during my 6-month momentum program.

What this means for you: I don’t just give advice, I help you create real, lasting transformation in your business. If you’re ready to go from stuck to thriving, let’s make it happen together!

Start with a reality check. When everything feels urgent, nothing really is. My Reality Check Method helps you dump out all the noise, identify what’s truly urgent, and create a simple first step forward.

Overwhelm creates false urgency, the feeling that you have to do everything right now. The solution isn’t to hustle harder, it’s to slow down, choose one real priority, and take the smallest next step. That’s how you build momentum.

The truth is, not everything is equally urgent. My clients use the Reality Check Method to separate tasks that move the needle from busywork that just drains energy. Once you identify the top priority, progress becomes possible.

Productivity isn’t about checking more boxes. It’s about aligning your actions with your actual business goals. My coaching focuses on helping women entrepreneurs stop spinning their wheels and start making progress on what really matters.

Momentum comes from consistent, realistic action, not massive overhauls. The key is to pick one clear next step, commit to it, and keep stacking small wins. That’s how you go from stuck to thriving without burning out.

When everything feels urgent, step back and reality-check what’s actually time-sensitive versus what just feels overwhelming. The Reality Check Method helps you separate real deadlines from false urgency so you can focus on what truly moves your business forward.
