SOLUTIONS CALL
A Solutions call is an excellent place to start! In this introductory 30-minute session, we will assess your biggest healing challenge together and lay out a plan for you to shift and solve that issue. You will leave this call with at least one strategy you can implement immediately to feel better. If it’s fit to do more work together, I will let you know what that would look like. And if there’s someone else I can recommend that would be a better fit, I will get you that referral.
