Embark on a 10-week journey of personal growth with our Path to Empowerment one-to-one mentoring program.

Discover and harness your strengths, passions, and resources for sustainable growth. With weekly guidance from an experienced professional/mentor, you will gain actionable strategies to propel you toward your focus area, whether in career, relationships, or personal fulfillment.

By the end of the 10 weeks, you’ll emerge with a Roadmap Document created together with your mentor. This document is a blueprint and action plan to access resources that will empower you to leverage your strengths for personal success.  

The 10-week Path to Empowerment Program is a stand-alone offering for individuals with financial need, who cannot access full-price LifeMAP coaching. It cannot be combined with other scholarships.

Path to Empowerment is available online only.
