About The Journey to Seven

Hi there!

We’re Clare and Paul, the husband and wife team behind The Journey to Seven.

Over the past five years, we’ve built a $10 million online business that gives us the freedom to live life on our terms. We’ve done this while facing some significant challenges - for example our middle son, Hugo, is profoundly disabled and Clare had three invasive brain surgeries during 2022/23. Despite these obstacles, we’ve created a business that works for us, rather than the other way around.

We started The Journey to Seven Community to share what we’ve learned with other founders who want to achieve the same kind of freedom and flexibility we’ve created. We believe in keeping things simple, scaling on our own terms and staying true to our values (no pushy or salesy tactics here!).

The Journey to Seven is a community for ambitious and ethical business owners ready to grow and scale online businesses.

We provide the tools, insights and down-to-earth advice to help you build a business your way.

We have three teenage boys, love renovating and flipping houses and live in Sydney, Australia.
