How Does it Work?

Peer Mentoring Groups offer new ideas and feedback on your current business challenges with a solution-based approach.

Facilitated by an experienced woman entrepreneur in your community, the group decides the focus of each meeting based on the interests and needs of its members (e.g. work/life balance, marketing, networking skills, cash flow management).

You’ll benefit from…

  • Personalized advice
  • Guidance from an experienced woman business owner
  • New ideas and opinions from an outside perspective
  • An action plan to overcome your challenges
  • Improved business knowledge
  • New networks and partnerships within the business community
  • Emotional support and relief from the isolation of business ownership

Program Cost: $150 for six, two-hour sessions

What our program participants say…

Excellent program! I especially enjoyed the peer group format – I made valuable contacts and learned a lot from my peers, as well as our mentor.
I think mentoring is so essential to help us know we don’t have to do everything alone and that we are not alone. There is support and guidance and team and collaboration and that’s what propels us forward and faster.
[The group helped me] create a community of fellow business owners, understand better what it takes to run a business, and learn from others who are at different stages of their business.

It has allowed me to be brave and reach outside my comfort zone a bit more. It feels good to be supported and to see and hear from other female entrepreneurs (especially in regards to challenges they may face).
