GROUP COACHING COHORT

A cohort of up to 8 participants will join together weekly via Zoom in a safe and confidential space. Each week, the group will engage with resources related to a particular topic like business planning, branding, etc. Additionally, each session two participants will bring a challenge they’re grappling with and receive expert guidance from the instructor and support and advice from the others. We’ll also save space each week for any urgent issues that come up.
