The Sunshine Agency
The Sunshine Course

Build the brand and the future beyond your sport.

A step by step program that helps athletes, creators and founders turn who they are into a brand, a plan and a sustainable income, without burning out.
Who it's for

Built for athletes first, and anyone ready to build what's next.

Most athletes spend years building a career and almost no time building what comes after it. The Sunshine Course changes that, for current or transitioning athletes who want to turn their name, story and network into something lasting, and for creators and founders who need a clear way to package, price and grow what they do.

Athlete lifestyle
What you'll walk away with

Not just notes. A plan you can act on.

  • A clear brand you can stand behind: who you are, who you're for, and what you offer.
  • Two or three realistic income streams mapped out and prioritised.
  • The systems and operations to run it without it running you.
  • A marketing approach you can actually keep up with.
  • A prioritised game plan and weekly rhythm to actually execute it.

Each module is a video lesson, written guidance, and worksheets to put it straight into practice.

Questions

Good to know.

How much time does it take?

Five modules. Go entirely at your own pace, or follow the cohort rhythm of roughly one module a week (about a five week journey), with a video, a lesson and worksheets in each.

Do I need to be a full time athlete?

Not at all. The course is built for athletes first, but creators and founders get just as much from it.

What if I'm still competing?

That's the ideal time to start. The earlier you build what's next, the more options you have when things change.

How does the coaching work? (Tier 2)

You complete a module each week, then join Emma and your cohort on a live Tuesday evening Zoom call to unpack it, ask questions and plan your next steps.

You got good at your craft. Now build something lasting on top of it.
