About Rachel

Rachel McHardy, CEO

Rachel McHardy is the founder and CEO of The Course Writer. She started her course creation business when she noticed busy entrepreneurs desperately wanted to scale their businesses but lacked the many hours it takes to research, create, and market an online course. With an understanding of instructional design and real-world teaching experience, she knew she could help get entrepreneurs to six and even seven figures with well-designed courses. 

Turns out, she was right! The Course Writer quickly took off leading Rachel to go from solopreneur to hiring talented individuals to help her keep up with the demand.

Rachel and The Course Writer team have helped create hundreds of courses for therapists, influencers, business coaches, life coaches, formal academic institutions, and dozens of other small businesses. Rachel personally oversees the creation process and instructional design development of each course. Her clients rave about her work calling her “creative”, “fantastic”, and even “a life-saver”.  

When she’s not happily researching and creating courses, you can find her exploring Baton Rouge with her husband, three kids, and their labrabull, Kyra. She loves art, reading, and playing volleyball. She does not, under any circumstance, enjoy cooking.
