Nikki is a client who gets a LOT out of mentoring, here she shares her thoughts on what you might experience:

Who in your life challenges YOU? Calls you out on any of your BS that is holding you back? Are you scared of having someone like this? Are you relying on friends, family and spouses to do this for you?
There is a better way. After I started working with the incredible Anne Adametz, Holistic Mentor,
I accomplished some of the following:
+ Healed chronic lower back pain that no doctor, PT or chiropractor could figure out or relieve. Who knew a simple condition that was related to muscles could make SUCH a difference? She’s a genius in my opinion!
+ Identified how I was spending my free time and the ways I truly wanted to be spending it so I was refreshed and recharged for the week…realized that it was very opposite of what I had been doing. Thank you for this wake-up call!
+ Figured out why summers were hard for me with 2 kids at home and strategies to take in order to still run my business without getting fried (side note, I’m still working on this one, come August everything comes off the rails – when camps end and too much free time exists…DRAMA with the kids occurs and working from home is no picnic during it). I’m still working on this one with her LOL.
+ Tension headaches are gone for good. I mean I seriously don’t recall the last time I had one!
+ Volunteering and what that looks like for me are redefined, allowing me to spend my time and talents in the way I truly want. Youth sports for my kids are not it; libraries and community job search support stuff are my jam for donating my time!
+ That old saying, you can only control yourself came through in a BIG way, and figuring out how that relates to marriage, family relationships and boundaries were eye-opening to me when discussing goals and challenges with her.
I listen to a lot of podcasts on these topics; I read a lot of books on it. I apply so many of these concepts to my own career coaching practice as relevant.
