Great for: teachers, small business owners, franchises, etc.

Because accessibility is important to me, I would highly recommend we talk more about your specific situation. Cost can range from $200 to $1000 depending on a number of factors.
It’s important to take into account how much content is already created or what would be newly developed for your organization.
Online options can reduce travel time or fees, and shorter presentations (30 or 45 minutes) or longer workshops (2-3 hour or full-day retreats) might be more manageable for your team.
Please reach out to me, and let’s find where you’re comfortable!
