Mallory C. — CPA transitioned to Digital Project Manager
Elynar has always been one of my go-to sources when in need of advice, whether it relates to my professional or personal life. She listens attentively and is really engaged during our conversations. I value her input because she is not one to tell me what I WANT to hear but instead what I NEED to hear in order to really grow and succeed.

Lailani A. — Transition from corporate job to entrepreneur
Working with Elynar as my mentor changed the direction of my life. I felt lost, overworked and stressed all the time. She encouraged me to meditate daily and it transformed my life. I started to become confident in my voice and the choices I make.
