Individual Mentoring
Wherever you are on your leadership journey, mentoring can help you achieve your personal and professional goals.
- Scaling Entrepreneurs– You’ve built a business, but now it’s time to scale. I help leaders transition from operators to leaders.
- First-Time Executives– You’ve earned the title, now you need the mindset, strategy, and confidence to lead at the next level.
- Seasoned Executives– It’s lonely at the top. I offer a safe space to explore personal and professional next steps.

Frequently asked questions ABOUT INDIVIDUAL Mentoring
Individual mentoring, as I practice it, is a collaborative process where we focus on creating space for you to live the life you have always envisioned. Mentoring is future-focused and action-oriented with equal amounts of “why” and “how.” It helps you harness your strengths and tackle specific challenges. While coaching often involves guidance from someone experienced in a particular field, mentoring with me is about facilitating your personal growth and decision-making through tailored strategies and insights.
With my mentoring, you can expect to gain clarity on your goals, develop actionable strategies, and receive the support needed to implement them effectively. In your personal life, this could mean improving your work-life balance, boosting confidence, or enhancing personal relationships. Professionally, my mentoring can help you navigate career transitions, enhance leadership skills, or overcome specific workplace challenges. My goal is to provide you with tools and insights that are actionable and relevant to your unique situation.
My sessions are interactive and designed to be both supportive and challenging, deep and light-hearted, serious and fun, and aimed at fostering your growth and success. You can expect a deep conversation, revealing questions, and a few suggestions thrown in along the way. It’s your time. Plan for 60 minutes in-person or over Zoom. Each hour’s investment is $350, and we typically will do two sessions per month, in three-month intervals.
Mentoring is likely a good fit if you’re committed to your personal or professional development and open to exploring new approaches to achieve your goals. To choose the right mentor, consider my background in executive and individual mentoring, and how my approach aligns with your needs. I emphasize a personalized, results-driven methodology, and I offer an initial consultation to discuss your goals and determine if my mentoring style is a good match for you.
The short answer? We’ll know. The duration of mentoring can vary based on your goals and the complexity of the challenges you’re facing. Some clients achieve their goals in a few conversations, while others benefit from a longer-term engagement. Progress is measured through the achievement of your set objectives, improvements in key areas of your life, and ongoing feedback. Typically, we’ll engage in three-month increments, meeting twice a month. If you feel after three months you’re on your way, great.
