If you've overcome major life issues like sexual addiction or betrayal trauma, you know you've got a lifetime of learned experiences and hard-earned knowledge stored up.
But did you know you're sitting on a treasure chest of wisdom - aka intellectual capital - that millions of people need and would gladly pay you to guide them through their own crisis?
This fact combined with a rapidly growing mental health crisis has created a unique window of opportunity for the emergence of a rewarding new vocation - Professional Mentoring!
Who's qualified to be a Professional Mentor? Lots of people:
Basically, anyone who is passionate and healthy enough to share their hard-earned wisdom and learned experiences with others can - and should - become a mentor.
You probably knew early on in your recovery from sexual addiction or betrayal trauma that you wanted to give back and help others like you find the freedom and healing they so desperately wanted. So you spent years working on your recovery or healing from the trauma of betrayal. And you've learned a lot over those years.
Let me know if this sounds like you…
Whether you're just beginning to help others and you've "caught the bug" or you've been at this for a while and you're ready to take it to the next level, you really can do what you love for a living.
But just how do you do that? Do I have to go back to school for 3-5 years and take out thousands in student loans to become a licensed counselor? Or do I spend less time but maybe just as much money learning to become a mental health coach? Isn't there a better way to help people without wasting time, going broke, or burning out?
You may have an advanced degree in counseling, psychology, or marriage and family therapy. Maybe you had your degree before your recovery or decided to go back to school once you'd grappled with and overcome the guilt and shame of addiction.
Maybe you're a counselor contacted by people outside your state, and your state's licensure laws prohibit you from helping those dealing with sexual addiction or betrayal trauma.
Maybe instead of a counseling degree, you opted to become a coach or ministry leader but could really use some help growing your practice.
You discovered the task of finding clients who desperately need what you offer turned out to be a more difficult challenge than you expected.
Does this sounds like you…
Due in part to the recent pandemic, more people than ever are suffering from addiction and trauma and looking for help and hope. You can be a part of their solution.

NOW IS THE TIME TO GET STARTED!
If you've overcome a major life issue, you're uniquely qualified to use your learned experiences and hard-earned wisdom to help others facing similar challenges.
Because you've been there, your wisdom is valued by those serious enough about their recovery to invest in it. During our 5-Year Pilot, this is how much income Michael generated in his first 3 years as a part-time mentor guiding men to freedom from sexual addiction.
1 Year - 2-10 Hrs/Wk = $24,075/yr.
2 Year - 1-14 Hrs/Wk = $71,769
3 Year - 14-22 Hrs/Wk = $133,334
*This is for educational purposes only and signifies what is possible based on Michael's personal experience. This in no way guarantees your results will be the same.
Did you know that for those taking a traditional approach to sexual addiction recovery – like therapy, 12-Step groups, or accountability partners – only 2-3% achieve long-term sobriety, and 70-80% drop out within the first 3-6 months! That’s horrible!
So in 2011, I began a 5-Year Proof of Concept involving 100 sexually addicted men to test the effectiveness of my new mentoring-centric approach to recovery. I also wanted to see if these skills were transferrable and if you could make a living as a mentor.
The results were amazing! Over 50% achieved long-term sobriety, our dropout rate was less than 15%, and I learned clients were happy to pay me well for those kinds of results. So in 2016, Launch Your Mentoring Ministry™ debuted as our signature mentor training course.
Today, 7 years and hundreds of students later, the demand for both men and women to serve as professional mentors keeps growing thanks in part to the global mental health crisis. Our secret formula starts with YOU – your first-hand experience and desire to help others.
So if you feel called to use your learned experiences and hard-earned wisdom to help others in need, and you don’t mind earning some income in the process, you’ve come to the right place. We need all the hero-makers we can get, and hope you’ll join us!
In it with you,
Michael & Christine
