Training includes a monthly live seminar followed by group coaching/Q&A.
These monthly classes will inspire you to get started in your business or to level up your game.
You will feel confident having a community of support and excited about the possibilities within life story work.
This will be a small-group cohort, which joins a larger alumni group from all over the world. These professionals add richness to the discussion.
A huge benefit is becoming part of a professional network where you can ask questions, bounce ideas, get referrals, and benchmark other professionals.
This is a generous, supportive community of colleagues.
There is also an extensive on-demand learning library of resources and tutorial replays to consult whenever you have a need.
The monthly classes are taught by Rhonda Lauritzen, who shares what it takes to run a thriving, profitable life story business.
Once a year, students also get to attend a high-end, 5-week live class on how to do professional interviews (included).
Professional students are invited to any classes we teach within our personal track.
