What platform do we use for the live sessions?

All of our live coaching and strategy sessions are conducted online via Google Meet. Once you select your slot and complete your booking, you’ll automatically receive an email with a secure meeting link and calendar invite.

Can I reschedule or cancel my session if something comes up?

Absolutely. We know life happens! You can easily reschedule or cancel your session up to 24 hours before your start time using the link in your confirmation email.

Do I need to prepare anything before my trial or discovery call?

Not at all. For discovery and trial calls, just bring yourself and an open mind! We’ll use the time to chat about your current level, your global goals, and what’s been holding you back so we can map out the perfect path forward.
