1-on-1 Mentoring: Transform Your Van Life Dream into a Confident Reality
Ways We Can Work Together
The Clarity & Confidence Package: Your Complete Roadmap
The Fastest Path From Dreaming to Driving—Without the Fear.
This 1-on-1 Core Coaching Package is designed to give you a structured, verified, and personalized plan in less than one month.
Why Choose Core Coaching? (The 3 Critical Roadblocks We Solve)
We move beyond general advice and address the three critical roadblocks unique to your solo journey:
1. Emotional Clarity & Mindset:
We tap into your 'why' to solidify your motivation and dedicate time to facing your specific fears and self-doubt, transforming overwhelm into empowerment.
2. Financial & Logistical Roadmap:
We build a personalized financial model, vet your vehicle choice, and define your exact "Confidence Route" for the first six months. This covers mail, domicile, and insurance needs.
3. Safety & Self-Sufficiency Systems:
We focus on the practical "how-to" of van life, including downsizing, choosing essential gear, setting up daily routines, and establishing robust safety protocols for solo travel.

What to Expect
Here’s a clear, simple path to get you started:
Start with a Free Clarity Call: A no-pressure chat to discuss your unique goals and challenges and see if we’re a good fit.
Choose Your Support: Together, we’ll choose the right path for you—the Comprehensive Clarity & Confidence Package for a full plan, or a Flexible Compass Call for quick troubleshooting.
Gain Confidence: After working together, you’ll walk away with deep clarity, a specific plan you can implement immediately, and expert support you can lean on.
Why Mentoring?
You already have the spark—the vision of life on the road, especially now as you embrace a new life chapter. But turning that vision into a confident, sustainable reality can feel overwhelming:
Analysis Paralysis: Too many ideas, conflicting advice, and information overload.
Unique Fears: Deep worries about financial longevity, solo safety, and maintenance as a woman 45+.
Isolation and Second-Guessing: Feeling alone in this massive decision or concerned about what family/friends might think.
Fear of High-Cost Mistakes: The anxiety of buying the wrong van, the wrong gear, or planning the wrong budget.
You don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. That’s where I come in. I help you move from confusion and overwhelm to clarity, confidence, and momentum—without the guesswork.
Who This Is For:
👉 You’ll love mentoring if you are:
A solo woman over 45 (or approaching this chapter) ready to claim your freedom.
Feeling overwhelmed by all the logistics and planning options.
Someone who wants support moving from “dreaming” to “doing” efficiently.
A planner who needs a verified, custom roadmap to feel safe.
Someone who craves a supportive expert walking beside you, not above you.
❌ This is NOT for you if: You are looking for free advice, only want to talk about decorations, or are not ready to invest time and energy into creating a custom plan.
Flexible Support: Compass Calls
Focused Guidance for Your Immediate Roadblocks.
Are you already in the planning process or on the road, but need help solving a specific topic or urgent problem? The Compass Call is designed for clients who need flexibility and on-demand expertise without committing to a multi-session package.
This is the perfect choice for:
Vetting a specific van listing before you buy.
Getting quick, expert feedback on a budget or maintenance issue.
Solving a critical logistics problem (mail, domicile setup, etc.).
What You Get: Customizable 60-Minute Sessions
Customized Focus: You choose the topic for the full 60 minutes. We dive deep into your most pressing issue to provide clear, actionable solutions immediately.
Targeted Follow-up: A concise, single-page summary of the Actionable Next Steps and resources discussed during the call. Delivered within 24 hours.
Investment: $79 per 60-minute session.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
💻 How do sessions work? All sessions are held on Google Meet (or by phone if you prefer). You’ll get a link after booking, and we’ll meet face-to-face no matter where you are in the world.
🕒 How long is each session? Our Compass Calls are 60 minutes. The Clarity & Confidence Package includes two 90-minute deep-dive sessions and one 60-minute integration session.
🚐 Do I need to already have a van to start mentoring? Not at all. Some of my clients don’t even own a van yet—they’re in the dreaming and planning stage. My Core Package focuses heavily on vehicle vetting to ensure you buy the right van the first time.
🔀 What if I’m not sure which package to choose? That’s exactly what the free Clarity Call is for. We’ll chat about your situation, your budget, and your goals, and I’ll help you decide if the comprehensive Clarity & Confidence Roadmap ($349) or the targeted Compass Call ($79) fits best.
📅 Can I reschedule if something comes up? Life happens! You can reschedule with at least 24 hours’ notice. I’ll always do my best to accommodate you.
📈 What if I want more sessions after my package ends? If you complete the full Clarity & Confidence Package, you can easily continue with the Compass Calls ($79) for ongoing support, check-ins, or troubleshooting as you get on the road.
🤔 What if I’m nervous about opening up? That’s completely normal. My role isn’t to judge—it’s to walk beside you, listen, and give you tools and support to move forward with more confidence. We go at your pace.
