Our mission is to teach women the marketing skills and strategies needed to grow and thrive independently while building a community where we can connect, inspire, and support one another.
Comprehensive marketing solutions for women-led businesses
Whether you’re building your personal brand, growing your business, or pursuing your passion project, the ability to market yourself effectively is key to unlocking growth, opportunity, and success.
Digital nomad & marketing expert
Hi, I'm Laura, founder of The Dearden Group — a business dedicated to empowering, educating, and uplifting the incredible women shaping our world. As a marketing expert, proud feminist, and digital nomad, I've traveled the globe and met extraordinary women with brilliant ideas, products, and stories. Too often, these women lack the marketing knowledge needed to scale their business and realize their full potential. That's where The Dearden Group comes in.
We will work together to unlock the full potential of your concept, ensuring that your ideas get the recognition and success they truly deserve. At The Dearden Group, we believe in celebrating women in all their brilliance.
I also share my own travels along the way, hoping to inspire other women to take risks and embrace adventure. Whether it's taking your first solo trip or launching your next big venture, let's explore and grow together.

Women-led business feature of the month
We want to celebrate women-led businesses that are absolutely crushing it — this month, it’s Nails by Alina Verbova.
One of the hardest parts of being a digital nomad is finding people who are exceptional at what they do, only to have to leave them behind in another country. I’ve built a global network of incredible women-led businesses. I know the best beauty places to get a facial, get your brows done, get your hair cut, etc., but they are scattered across the world, and I always find myself missing certain ones when I move on.
And the one I miss the most is Alina.
Based in Edinburgh, Scotland, Alina Verbova specialises in Russian gel manicures and has an incredible eye for detail. What makes her even more special is that she loves doing designs and doesn’t charge extra for them. I give her complete creative freedom, and she never misses. I always leave with nails that bring me such joy.
Her work lasts forever. It is normal gel polish, but applied with such precision and care that other nail studios have genuinely struggled to remove it. That is how well it is done.
Every time I leave Edinburgh, I feel sad knowing I won’t have her manicures for a while. She is always the first appointment I book when I fly back.
Women like Alina are exactly why I love highlighting women-led businesses. Passion, skill, creativity, and consistency all in one place.
