What's the difference between a mentor and a coach? How do I know what support is best for me?

Both mentors and coaches offer powerful support—but in different ways.

A mentor is someone who’s been there, done that. They draw from their lived experience to offer guidance, share advice, and sometimes open doors to their network. Mentorship is often about perspective, encouragement, and shining light on the road ahead based on what they’ve already walked.

A coach, on the other hand, is a trained professional (often certified) who helps you move from where you are now to where you want to be. Coaches help you clarify goals, identify and work through blocks—like limiting beliefs or emotional patterns—and create accountability. Coaching isn’t about giving advice; it’s about empowering and guiding you to access your own inner wisdom, unlock your potential, and create meaningful, lasting change

Not sure what you need?

Start with where you’re stuck.

If you’re looking for direction or want to learn from someone’s experience, you may want a mentor.

If you’re craving transformation, clarity, or support in taking aligned action, a coach could be the right fit.
