Philippa Channer
Philippa Channer, MBA, is a marketing strategist, business growth mentor, and founder of the EmpowerHer Program, recognized for helping women entrepreneurs move from scattered effort to strategic execution. With more than 14 years of experience in communications and marketing, Philippa’s work centers on clarity, leadership, and sustainable business growth. Her career began in nonprofit communications, where she developed a deep appreciation for storytelling, brand voice, and purpose-driven messaging, foundations that continue to inform her strategic approach.
As Founder and Lead Strategist of Channer Consulting, LLC, Philippa partners with service-based business owners to help them think and operate like CEOs. She is known for designing clear, realistic, and repeatable marketing strategies that align with long-term vision rather than short-term tactics. Through her signature EmpowerHer Program, a business accelerator for women entrepreneurs, she guides clients in refining their business models, clarifying their messaging, and creating consistent, goal-aligned content that supports sustainable growth.
Building on this work, Philippa also leads a high-level Mastermind experience for established women entrepreneurs who are ready to deepen their leadership, sharpen their strategic focus, and scale with intention. The Mastermind provides a collaborative environment for women to strengthen decision-making, align marketing with business vision, and lead their companies with greater confidence and clarity.
In addition to her advisory work, Philippa is the creator of the SPICER Planner, a strategic planning and reflection tool designed to help women entrepreneurs manage priorities, set intentional goals, and maintain alignment between business growth and personal well-being. Her work is grounded in the belief that success should feel focused and sustainable, not overwhelming.
At the heart of Philippa’s mission is a commitment to helping women translate big-picture ideas into actionable strategies that support both business results and personal leadership growth. She is passionate about equipping women entrepreneurs to lead with confidence, build businesses with intention, and create meaningful, long-term impact.

What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
My advice to young women entering this industry is to act like the CEO of your business, not just an employee. Focus on being productive rather than reactive, and take ownership of your vision while empowering yourself and others along the way.
What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?
The values most important to me in both my work and personal life are balance and connection. While I’m committed to helping others grow professionally, I also make time to enjoy family, play video games, and nurture relationships that keep me grounded and energized.
