“Having Chelsey as a mentor has definitely played a huge part in the development of my business. Every session I had with Chelsey helped me focus on different keys areas and make SMART targets which have driven the progression of the my business, AshleeMo Events. After every session I had with Chelsey I felt more confident in myself and my business. Chelsey's advice was always specific to me and my needs and to this day I still look over notes from Chelsey's sessions. I am truly grateful to have had Chelsey as my mentor so early in my entrepreneurial journey.”
