A 1:1 Sanctuary for Women in Their Becoming
THE ALT-JOY MENTORSHIP
Deep, attuned, identity-shifting support for the woman who knows she is made for more softness, more color, more aliveness… and wants a mentor who can help her remember how.
If you feel yourself changing but can’t quite name it…
If you’re in that quiet, liminal place between who you were and who you’re becoming…
If you’ve outgrown old versions of yourself, but your new self hasn’t fully arrived…
If you crave clarity, joy, direction, identity, expression, safety, and meaning…
You don’t need a coach.
You need a witness.
A mirror.
A guide.
Someone who can sit beside you (not above you) and help you hear your own voice again.
That’s what this mentorship is.
This is a space for women who are:
✨ in transition
✨ craving softer success
✨ exhausted by self-help hype
✨ ready to come back to themselves
✨ wanting depth, intimacy, nuance
✨ returning to joy after drought seasons
✨ wanting to feel creative again
✨ ready to be fully seen
✨ yearning for a life that feels like them
✨ done with surface-level fixes
✨ wanting meaning, not just progress
This is for the woman who can feel something awakening and wants to walk that becoming with someone who actually understands the terrain.

that’s your answer.
This mentorship is for someone who:

is tired of performing and ready to be witnessed
-
desires clarity, not more noise
-
craves gentler, smarter, more aligned growth
-

You just have to feel the recognition.
If your body said yes before your brain caught up, you’re in the right place.
Q: What Actually Happens Inside a Mentorship Session?
A session with me is not like traditional coaching or therapy.
Here’s what it feels like:
Attunement — I listen beneath your words and reflect back what’s actually true.
Clarity — I help you see your patterns, power, and purpose with clean, loving precision.
Energetic calibration — I tune your nervous system toward safety, creativity, and expansion.
Strategy that feels like relief — We identify what actually works for your energy, not generic advice.
Identity work — You grow into the version of yourself your life has been waiting for.
Compassion — You don’t have to pretend, perform, or be the “best student.”
Momentum — You leave knowing exactly what your next step is, and why it matters.
Clients often say:
“It felt like someone finally turned the lights on.”
Q: What Results Can I Expect?
Results will vary depending on your life, energy, and goals, but these are the most common shifts clients report:
-
feeling grounded instead of reactive
-
clarity replacing spiraling
-
ending burnout cycles

finally being able to follow through

getting paid more with less effort

better emotional regulation

life becoming simpler, lighter, and more aligned

When your inner reality shifts, your outer reality responds quickly.
Q: How Much Time Do I Need To Commit Each Week?
This mentorship is designed for people with real lives, fluctuating energy, and full plates.
Expect:
-
one session per week (typically 60–75 minutes)
-
gentle integration between sessions
-
light touchpoints and support as needed
There is no homework, no pressure, no need to “keep up.”
Your only job is:
-
show up honestly
-
be open
-
let yourself be witnessed
Everything else unfolds naturally.
Q: What If I’m Nervous Or Not In A Good Headspace?
Then this is especially for you.
You don’t need:
-
to be confident
-
to be stable
-
to be productive
-
to be “ready”
You just need the desire to feel better and the willingness to be supported.
Your nervous system gets to come exactly as it is.
Q: I’ve Tried Coaching Before & It Didn’t Help. Will This Be Different?
Most coaching programs:
-
give you strategies you can’t implement
-
don’t understand neurodivergent or sensitive brains
-
mistake burnout for lack of discipline
-
push instead of attune
-
treat symptoms instead of patterns
This is different.
I don’t overwhelm you, I decode you.
I don’t add pressure, I create capacity.
I don’t hand you systems, I help you build a life that fits you.
This work lives in the sweet spot between:
-
identity
-
energy
-
clarity
-
emotional regulation
-
grounded strategy
It works because it honors who you are, not who you’re trying to be.
Q: Do You Offer Refunds?
Because of the depth, access, and personalized nature of this mentorship, all sales are final.
If you’re unsure, trust the pace of your body.
A session will never push you, it will meet you.
Q: Do I Need a Consultation First?
Many clients know immediately and enroll.
Others prefer a short connection call.
Both are welcome.
If you want to talk before joining, you can book a free 15-minute clarity call.
(No pressure. No pitch. Just presence.)
Q: How Will I Know If I’m Truly Ready?
You’ll feel:
-
a nudge
-
a pull
-
an opening
-
a calm “yes”
-
a quiet knowing
-
a relief in your chest
-
or simply… curiosity
Readiness for this work is not hype energy, it’s a soft recognition.
If you feel that?
You’re ready.

Thank you for coming to our home so prepared with happiness tips and a binder full of specific resources, tools and reminders of ways that Kathleen is awesome–all in a setting of balloons, confetti, tiaras, ribbons, music and banners.
You were amazing yesterday.
“I’m so grateful for the work that Mary did with me on my business branding, personal image, website, and products and services. We just finished a 60-day project that significantly re-wired my socials and brands. She helped me to clarify my vision for my business, and she gave me the tools, resources, and accountability I needed to make it a reality.
“Thank you for being so generous! I had a delightful time working with you!
“In the moments after I signed up for a 1:1 coaching call with Mary, I thought what in the heck was I doing?? Would I be wasting her time? Would I be able to get anything from it? Would it just be a bunch of unhelpful advice? Would she be able to see my messy apartment? Within 5 seconds of her reaching out to me before our session, I realized all of my fears were for naught.
“I am so so happy that I talked to you and while we were talking, I was feeling that you are touching every depth and corner of my heart and were healing it, making it feel heard and loved. I got clarity on what aspects I need to work on. I was confused a lot before that, and that was a reason holding me back. 
“Mary is super knowledgeable about various subjects and
