Better performance starts with getting to know your brain.
Performance coaching & advisory blending neuroscience, psychology, and evidence-based business strategies for those who want to slow down to speed up.
Hi From Business Camp® is for people who care just as much about how they build as what they build.
We help people and organizations improve performance by addressing learned brain patterns that influence individual behavior, how people work together, and how work gets done.
How We’re Different
Here, we pay close attention to inputs, because inputs shape outputs and outputs become outcomes.
We look at performance across three levels:
Micro (You): Your habits, reactions, focus, and how you move through the world
Meso (The relational layer): How people interact, communicate, build trust, and work together
Macro (The system): The environment you’re operating in, including norms, incentives, workflows, and culture
Our work is grounded in science and a deep love of reading.
Our coaching & advisory draw from the science of human performance, including neuroscience, psychology, and time-tested, evidence-based business strategies.
In all of our programs, we use non-fiction books as shared working texts to create common language and relatable mental models tied to the goals you’re working toward.
Brains are messy. Business is, too.
Here's how we support both:
Performance coaching built for real life, not ideal life. Our choose-your-own-adventure, week-by-week performance coaching program was created to fit real schedules, not ideal ones, at a fraction of the cost of longer programs. Each week includes two video calls, one for Monday kickoff and one for Friday wrap-up, plus our exclusive journaling method, which serves as the main working space throughout the week. You can start with one week or stack a few if you need it. You decide how much time you need, without a long commitment or big investment, so you can make progress now, not someday.
✔️ Performance Coaching for Individuals
✔️ Performance Advisory for Teams
While our weekly performance coaching is designed for individuals, partnering with us through advisory work is intended for teams and organizations. Our advisory work focuses on the relational and structural layers of performance that shape how people operate within their environments. Our work is informed by research from organizational psychology, group dynamics, and systems thinking, with the goal of helping teams and organizations identify, address, and adjust sources of friction that cause performance issues to persist even among highly capable, well-intentioned teams.
Meet Your Camp Leader
Hey, I’m Stephanie 👋 . This whole entrepreneur thing started in a 500-square-foot apartment in Brooklyn, NY, where I bootstrapped two companies:
1️⃣ A consultancy
2️⃣ A software startup called Ruoom
Now based in Austin, TX, Ruoom has grown from a 2-person team to 20, and in early 2023, we opened our first international headquarters in Seoul, South Korea 🇰🇷.
When I’m not leading Ruoom’s global operations, I bring everything I’ve learned inside and outside the office to support the leaders and doers of the world through the newest addition to my portfolio: Hi From Business Camp 🏕️.
Building multiple businesses taught me the realities of leadership, while weird hobbies endurance sports and mountain summits shaped the principles I now coach, rooted in performance science.
Now, I coach people in the science of human performance, helping people and organizations improve performance by addressing learned brain patterns that influence individual behavior, how people work together, and how work gets done.
My mission as a Performance Coach & Advisor is to help you slow down and understand your brain and patterns, so you can speed up when it counts.
So if you’re looking for practical, real-world support from someone who knows the highs and lows of starting and scaling a business, while staying true to what made you start in the first place, you’re in good company.
That’s me! Disney World, early 90s & very into pink, apparently.

Why The Camp Theme?
"Deliberate play is about injecting fun into skill-building, so the daily grind becomes a source of daily joy." - Adam Grant
Influenced by thinkers like Carol Dweck and Adam Grant, our camp theme is rooted in the science of deliberate play, where structured practice meets curiosity.
Inspired by the rhythm of summer camp—its structure, reflection, curiosity, and community—we build spaces online and in real life where people solving hard problems can think differently, on purpose.
What People Are Saying
“I had a powerful 1:1 session with Stephanie and two months later, I can confidently say that the personalized mentorship document she created for me has been a guiding light. It’s become my north star, helping me recalibrate and refocus whenever I need guidance.
During our session, we began by discussing my business goals, but it quickly became clear how deeply old beliefs and mindset were influencing the way I envisioned my growth. Stephanie helped me see the connection between mindset and business, showing me that growth isn’t compartmentalized.
What stood out most to me was how she held space for my vulnerability.
As an immigrant entrepreneur, it’s incredibly important for me to show up authentically, and I truly appreciated the honest, transparent flow of our conversation. The tactics Stephanie outlined in my mentorship document are brilliant—they seamlessly integrate business strategy, mindset work, and personal growth. I’m a huge fan of her approach and can’t wait to book more 1:1 time with her in 2025. I highly recommend Stephanie’s strategy sessions to anyone looking for impactful, transformative guidance!"
