Traveling for an in person mentor appointment or workshop is not always feasible, especially when you're running a business. Lizzy's Skype Mentoring option allows you to receive experienced coaching and business advice from the comfort of your own home.

The best part? Lizzy will customize your mentorship to your specific needs and focus on the areas you feel you need the most help! Here's what the Skype Mentorship includes:

4.5 hours of Skype Mentoring:

1- 15- minute evaluation call- we will become acquainted, and set the foundation for how to help you achieve the most from this mentorship

4- 1-hour calls- after we establish the initial plan, we will touch base 4 separate times to discuss your plan, progress, and go into coaching. Be prepared to work!

1- 15-minute wrap up call- we reconvene at the end of your mentorship to wrap up and assess your progress.
