Coaching
I have a limited amount of time for private consults, and they must work around my extensive job and family responsibilities.
There is a fee for a phone or Zoom session with me, due to the fact that my time is valuable as well as my expertise. If you are interested in scheduling a session, email me at deannashrodes@gmail.com for further information on cost and availability.
