testimonials From Past Mentorships
“Carissa Opened my eyes up to A Whole New way of thinking and approaching my senior business!
I can't wait to begin implementing some of her strategies to lighten my workload and bringing back my spark!"
-Kim P.Lacey took me under her wing and was so Generous with her time and advice.
We discussed my plans for 2024 and was provided honest, thoughtful feedback on how I could improve my social media, outreach to the community and website.
A key thing I appreciated was that Lacey would point out what I was already doing well-noting certain effective marketing and teen/senior rep teams projects. This gave me confidence in my abilities, while also pushing me to refine my craft.
My mentoring relationship with Lacey truly helped transform my workflow and helped improve my photography career. I’m so grateful for the time she has invested in me and for selflessly sharing her expertise.
-Rachel VC
