Our story

Elevate Beyond started at a dining table.

Two women, freshly out of jobs, catching up over a meal and asking the same question: what now? Juliana had a background in training; it felt familiar, a natural place to start. So that's where we began.

Our first event was a webinar on networking with Sarah Karingi. As we planned the next one, we went looking for trainers and hit a wall. Most experts were impossible to find online.

So we pivoted. We started helping professionals show up where opportunities were already looking: LinkedIn.

Then we noticed something else. Most people didn't even know that being findable online mattered.

So we took it a step further; we hosted Her Mark: Making Bold Moves, a breakfast event where 17 women showed up and learned how to position themselves so opportunities could actually find them. That morning confirmed everything: there was a gap between expertise and influence, and we existed to close it.

Today, Elevate Beyond is trusted by companies like SFA Analytica Limited, Diamond Junior School, Born to Shine Foundation and Experix, alongside personal brands who are done being behind the scenes in their industry.

Juliana Masiga Kulokhoma, MBA

Co-Founder & Business Strategy Director

Juliana is a Leadership Communication and Strategic Visibility strategist, keynote speaker, and author. She believes many capable people don't lack expertise; they lack the language, positioning, and visibility to ensure their value is recognized and put to work.

She developed the 4V Leadership Visibility Framework (Value, Voice, Visibility, Value Creation), a practical model that helps professionals communicate their contribution with clarity, build credibility, and translate recognition into opportunity. She also created the LEAD™ Client Conversion Program, which helps participants leverage their stories, establish thought leadership, and build a client-attracting brand presence, and she leads the Executive Sales Accelerator™ (ESA™), which equips sales leaders and teams to navigate complex buying environments through more strategic, customer-centered selling.

In 2026, she delivered the keynote From Expertise to Influence at the Women Empowerment Summit in Mombasa. She is the author of Why She's Invisible on LinkedIn, and she practices what she teaches: every major speaking engagement she has secured has come through LinkedIn.

Juliana holds a Bachelor's in Strategic Management and an MBA in Operations Management, with over a decade of experience across Kenya, Uganda, and the United States. She is a Certified Career Analyst and is pursuing her CHRP qualification.

Alongside co-founder Maureen Muthoni, she leads Her Mark Community, a professional network for women 40 and over navigating their next chapter with intention and confidence.

Visibility is stewardship. What you carry was meant to be seen.

The book

Why She's Invisible on LinkedIn

And the 5 things every coach and consultant must fix to turn LinkedIn into a revenue channel

Why do accomplished women remain overlooked online, and how can intentional positioning change that?

In it, Juliana sets out the five things coaches and consultants need to fix on LinkedIn before it brings in clients. She uses the same approach herself: every major speaking engagement she has secured came through LinkedIn.

Maureen Muthoni

Co-Founder & Content Strategist

Maureen has run her own businesses. They taught her something she now applies for clients: people can only choose what they understand, so how you explain what you offer matters as much as the offer itself.

She has spent over ten years working in content. What began with a YouTube channel, back when the platform was a very different place, grew into more than seven years of developing content and marketing materials for clients across platforms, both locally and globally. Along the way she has seen how many different people write, and what makes an audience respond.

Today, as a content strategist, copywriter and ghostwriter, she helps women CEOs, speakers, coaches and consultants turn their expertise and lived experience into content their audience understands, trusts and acts on. One client's thought leadership has won her three awards, and others have found their voice and learned to tell their story in a way that shows real experience and brings in clients.

With Juliana, she co-developed and designed the Executive Sales Accelerator™ (ESA™) program, and she co-leads Her Mark Community, a space for women stepping into speaking, consulting and leadership, built on honest conversation. She moderates its events and facilitates its panels.

Away from work, Maureen is happiest on a walk or hike in nature, in her garden, or in a long conversation over good food.

Before anyone considers what you offer, they connect with who you are.
