Program Structure

Enrollment Duration

The goal of the program is to assist you in establishing a strong foundation for your practice in less time and with less stress. Ideally, this program would be completed within 2-4 months from the enrollment date. However, I understand that life can be unpredictable and more time may be needed. As such, this program will be accessible for up to 6 months.

Expectation for Program Participation

Participants should plan to spend 10-15 hours to complete the course assignments. The program guarantees time is secured for guidance on the topic areas, but not completion of the tasks. As a participant, it is recommended you regularly schedule time to work on the curriculum. (Don't worry, we'll help with that too).

Communication

Ongoing support will be provided through (2) 60-minute individual consultation calls, email correspondence with your guide, and the discussion feature within the curriculum.

Individualized Consultation

Individual consultation is offered in 30 and 60 minute increments. To make the most efficient use of our time, you'll be provided with a pre-meeting form, allowing us to dive right into addressing your needs. If you'd like more than 2 hours during your participation, additional consultation can be purchased.
