Hey everyone,

Would like to start stress & anxiety coaching people as a sidehustle. Currently doing a 20-hour training in a branch of psychotherapy (very practical, ideal for coaching).

But I lack the sales/communication/coaching skills and mindset.

I've been following an awesome dating & life coach (7+ years experience) for a long time already and I'm thinking of getting his mentorship.

I understand that I have a lot of blind spots, mindset limitations and beliefs that don't serve me (about making money and success) and this guy's really on point with that.

Obviously it isn't free, and even a lot of money.

Would love to hear any of your thoughts and experiences on being/having a mentor. Was it valuable, was it a waste of time... ?

Some elaboration would be nice, as more valuable insights will be needed as this is a difficult decision for me.

Thanks so much in advance!
Chris
