Alongside is Forget the Office's 1:1 coaching — Strategy, Inner Coherence and Motion, worked as one, with real access to Merce. Start with a two-hour intensive, a three-session bundle, or a four-month cycle building right beside you.
Strategy · Inner Coherence · Motion — the Forget the Office method, one-to-one.
Sometimes you don't need a course or a community — you need expert eyes on your exact situation, and someone in your corner between the moves. Alongside is that: real strategy, the inner work that lets you act on it, and direct access to Merce while you build.
Strategy without a regulated body stays a to-do list. A calm body without a plan drifts. And the best ideas, without execution, go nowhere. Forget the Office coaching braids all three — so the decision, the capacity to make it, and the movement to carry it out arrive at the same time.
Clear-eyed work on your offer, positioning, pricing, and the few moves that actually grow the thing. We cut the noise down to the next right decision — and make it.
We work with the nervous system, not around it — so your identity, your beliefs and what you actually do finally line up. Charging your worth, being visible and leading stop feeling like a threat, and start feeling like home.
Insight becomes real when the body moves. We turn each session into motion — momentum you can feel — so you leave already in action instead of stuck in your head.
It's hard to tell you exactly what you'll walk away with, because these four months look different for everyone.
This is a deeply personal, intensive space, and we spend it on whatever will make the biggest difference to your business and to how you show up in it.
For one person, that's rebuilding their strategy from the ground up. For another, the deeper work of what's really holding them back. Wherever the work needs to go, we go there together.
We set clear goals at the very start, so we're always moving towards something that matters. From there, every session is its own, shaped around what you need most.
A steady, supported space where momentum builds, then turns into how you show up and what you create. Some clients have called it magical.
Because the work is shaped around each person, it's easier to show you than to describe. Here are real things we've built and shifted in sessions: not a checklist you'll tick, just a sense of what becomes possible when we work on what matters most to you.
These are examples of what's been possible, not promises. The magic comes from meeting you where you are, and working on the one thing that will move you most.
Merce built Forget the Office on one idea: your business should work for you, not the other way around. Over seven years of building — an agency from scratch, real businesses, her own — she kept collecting the exact tools the journey asked for. Not one discipline, but three, woven together: strategic clarity, inner coherence and motion. Alongside is where she brings all of it to you, personally — the marketing strategist, the somatic-informed guide and the coach, in one person who's actually walked it.
More about MerceWhy it works
Real strategy, held in a body that finally feels safe to move.
Coaching usually assumes you're calm, linear and endlessly available. Real humans aren't — and founders under pressure especially aren't. So Alongside meets you exactly as you are.
We move at the pace of trust — no shame, no pressure, none of the "just push through it." How you feel in your body shapes what you can build, so we work with it instead of overriding it.
Coaching designed by an ADHD founder, for brains that don't run in straight lines. Clear and structured without being rigid — working with how you're wired, not against it, so momentum finally feels possible.
Everyone belongs here. We're actively committed to equality and non-discrimination — whatever your race, gender, sexual orientation, background or story. You get to show up and grow exactly as you are.
Same 1:1 work, in an afternoon. Three intensives, each pointed at one thing — pick by what's actually in your way. Not sure? Book either; we'll switch in the first ten minutes if you're in the wrong one.

Three focused sessions to untangle what's holding you back, find your direction, and turn your ideas into a clear plan of action.
Get the space, support and perspective you need to move forward with confidence, without trying to figure it all out on your own.
Three sessions. One clear direction.
Save €64 compared with booking individual sessions.Both are real 1:1 time with Merce. The difference is scope: one makes focused progress on a single priority, the other is an ongoing partnership with direction and support. Here's how to tell which you need.
Best when you have a specific issue, question or objective to work through. We set the objective at the start and spend the whole session making real progress on it.
A more continuous, personalised coaching relationship. We start by setting a roadmap and goals together, then build on every session before, so we can spot patterns, revisit decisions and adjust as things unfold.

A cycle is four months of committed 1:1 work — a roadmap, regular sessions, your marketing reviewed, and someone watching the whole thing with you. Same framework, two tempos: Anchor for a steady hand on the wheel, Momentum for full pace and the most support.
The Anchor Cycle
For building alongside a job, kids, or both.
Four months with a steady hand on the wheel. You don't need daily hand-holding — you need a plan that's actually yours, and one reliable point each month where someone checks the direction and tells you the truth.

The Momentum Cycle
For when this is the season you've cleared for it.
Four months at full pace, with no gap long enough to lose the thread. Maybe you've left the job, or you're about to. You don't want to be nudged forward — you want to be pulled. The plan, the person and the marketing, all moving at once.

The first container lays the foundation. When you choose to keep going, you receive preferential renewal pricing, because an ongoing relationship is genuinely more valuable to both of us, and I want that to be recognised.
When we work together across more than one container, I come to know you, your business, its history and the way you operate at a much deeper level. The offers you've developed, the ideas you've wanted to chase, the projects that stalled, the patterns that sometimes get in your way.
So we don't start from scratch each time. I can tell when an old pattern is creeping back in, when a belief might be holding you back, or when the business needs a different approach. We build on everything we've already learned, which lets us work with more depth, more context and more continuity.
That continuity is worth protecting, so clients who renew their container receive preferential loyalty pricing. The longer we work together, the more our shared understanding is worth. This isn't about locking anyone in. It's recognition of what we build by staying the course.
Daria · From side project to full-time business
"She guided me in making important decisions about how I wanted to communicate, how to highlight my brand, and how to follow a clear line that allowed me to define myself in an organized way. That session gave me clarity and confidence to take the next steps."
"I renewed LinkedIn Premium to keep up with the requests for my services — and in just 30 hours I received 16 requests for CV reviews!"
"The money mindset session was so useful — I could finally understand my values around money. Some beliefs were limiting me and my business. Now I'm more capable of making the right decisions for my values, lifestyle and needs."
"Merce was an awesome business coach. Not only did she support me business-wise, but also emotionally."
Same four-month framework, different pace. Anchor (€947, or €247×4) is one session a month plus an hour of marketing reviews by Merce, with WhatsApp and email support in between — your point of anchor once a month, built for people building around a job or kids. Momentum (€1,297, or €347×4) doubles it: two sessions a month and two hours of marketing reviews, with support close at hand — more support, faster progress. Each container starts with a personalised plan we revisit as we go.
Not at all. You don't need experience or a particular belief about it — just a willingness to notice what happens in your body. Merce guides every part of it; nothing is weird or woo, and everything is optional.
Yes — it's built for exactly that. Alongside is trauma-informed and neurodivergent-oriented: we move at the pace of trust, work with your nervous system instead of overriding it, and shape the work around how you're actually wired. Nothing here asks you to push through or mask.
One honest note: coaching isn't therapy. If trauma is leaving you unable to function day to day, the kindest first step is a psychologist or therapist — and we're glad to work alongside that support once you're steady enough to build.
Both, on purpose. We work on real business strategy — offer, pricing, positioning, the next move — while working with the nervous system that has to carry it out. In practice the two are inseparable, which is exactly why this works.
That's what the intensives are for — two focused hours, €147, pointed at the one thing in your way. Want it to hold? The Clarity Bundle is three sessions over three months for €377. Either can roll into a full cycle later.
Sessions are 1:1 over video, with voice-note support between them. Wherever you are, we can work together — in English, Catalan or Spanish.
With a discovery call. It's a real conversation, not a hard sell — we get clear on where you are, what you need, and whether Alongside is the right fit before anything else.
It starts with one honest conversation. Book a discovery call and we'll find the right way in together, exactly as you are.
