I've secured 7 TV segments, 9 social media placements, 1 recipe development contract, 1 speaking gig, and attended a conference on behalf of a brand. I've made 30K in brand work since the mentorship and honestly this extra money and confidence that I don't need a traditional full-time job has been such a relief for my mental health.
- 2024 Mentorship Student
I've worked with 15 brands, 4 which I landed during the mentorship! I've made around 10K since enrolling in the mentorship. The biggest lifestyle change that I am the most excited about as I continue to grow is the ability to be able to work from anywhere!
- 2024 Mentorship Student
Definitely more flexibility — had a baby and didn't stress about going back to a job or how I'd have to find coverage if I needed to take a day off. Ability to work when I want — most days I probably do 2 hours of work, other days I literally do none! Happier overall — I'm able to create fun things that I want to, which really fills my cup so it doesn't feel like work! Also, it's just cool from a mental perspective to be my own boss and build up my own brand/business. Mental toughness is real + firm believer that we have to do hard shit to grow and become better!
- 2024 Mentorship Student
I've gotten at least 5 paid gigs since the mentorship. A couple of them have been monthly contracts! I've made about $10K since the mentorship ended! It makes me realize how many opportunities are out there, and that I don't have to be tied to a 9-5. And I love being able to have a flexible schedule.

I am so glad that I found Gillean and Kristen! The media mentorship was the perfect way to end my first year of entrepreneurship. I’ve had my highest earning months since doing the mentorship - highly recommend!
- 2024 Mentorship Student
In general I have completed over 10 media jobs since finishing the mentorship, and 5 of these were directly thanks to Gillean and Kristen connections! These jobs have totaled over $8,000! The others were from previous clients who I now feel more comfortable pitching.Gillean and Kristen have definitely given me the confidence boost I was looking for and have also inspired me to think out of the box in terms of creating media income and working with brands. “

Participating in the Media Mentorship program led by Gillean and Kristen has been an extraordinary journey of personal and professional growth. Their unwavering support and rejection of gatekeeping mentality created an inclusive environment where I felt encouraged from the beginning. Through their guidance, I not only developed valuable connections within the industry but also witnessed a significant boost in my skills and confidence. The mentorship program has not only expanded my network but also translated into tangible accomplishments, with new brand deals and even a sponsored media trip! Expect to be inspired, empowered, and mentored by two incredible dietitians who genuinely invest in your success and will undoubtedly shape your journey in media for the better!

Before joining the Media Mentorship program, I was still finding my footing in the media world. However, in a short time, I experienced remarkable growth: from my debut TV segment to securing two sponsored TV features, and celebrating my first-ever 10K month. Beyond the tangible milestones, my self-belief has transformed — I now see myself as an influential expert in my field. The unparalleled support and collaboration provided by Gillean and Kristen ensure every participant is primed for success, regardless of their aspirations. If you're on the fence about this program, take the leap; the results speak for themselves

You’re in the right place! This is the perfect opportunity to establish a strong foundation for your career. When you start with us and you enter the job market or pursue a career as a dietitian, you'll be well-prepared to excel. But, you don’t have to wait until you’re out of school to start engaging in media work! We can help you learn how to collaborate with brands without official accreditation. Now’s the time to begin exploring and experimenting with media work and laying the groundwork for your future success. This will allow for continuous growth and potential to secure significant brand partnerships. Additionally, leveraging your student status offers a unique advantage, as brands are often looking to engage with your demographic.
WHAT IF I’M A STUDENT?
Media work can definitely be integrated into your business model. It doesn't necessarily have to be your sole focus, although that's what we specialize in and enjoy. Typically, it begins as an additional revenue stream that can eventually grow to support other aspects of your business. You might find that investing time and resources into media work is more rewarding than previous jobs. We encourage individuals to consider starting on the side, even while working a 9 to 5 job. In fact, that's how we began—by working on media projects alongside our full-time jobs. You don't need to be a full-time entrepreneur to dive into media work.
WHAT IF I'M NOT READY TO TAKE THE LEAP INTO ENTREPRENEURSHIP YET?
That’s okay! We’re here to help you build a solid foundation that allows you to progress quickly and efficiently towards your goals. And we want you to know one thing: we know you can do this on your own! What we want to do is help you bypass the steep learning curve that we had to navigate to get to where we are now. We're confident in your potential and our aim is to guide you in the right direction, expedite your progress and ensure you gain the experience, network, confidence, and tools needed for success.
WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE EXPERIENCE?
That's completely normal—it's what we often refer to as imposter syndrome! It's important to remember that many people out there are doing similar work without any formal credibility. You don't have to know everything right from the start. Building a supportive community of like-minded individuals, or "business besties," can provide you with valuable resources and support whenever you need it. We'll be there to encourage you, boost your confidence, and help you step into the role of an expert. Remember, there's a demand for your services as an expert, and people are relying on you for assistance. It's time to overcome imposter syndrome and make a real impact by helping others.
WHAT IF I DON'T FEEL LIKE AN EXPERT YET?
During our mentorship, it typically demands around 2 to 4 hours per week. Starting with this commitment can significantly propel you in the right direction. Gradually, you'll find yourself seizing various opportunities, potentially leading to a transition away from your 9 to 5 desk job and towards more media-related work. Even dedicating 2 to 4 hours a week can enable you to send pitches, secure brand deals, and fulfill contract obligations.
HOW MUCH TIME DOES THIS REQUIRE?
Yes! For the Media Mentorship we offer 3 month and 6 month payment plan options. While we know our program is an investment, we are confident that the immense knowledge and experience offered in the course along with unlimited access to both of us will see a quick ROI in the form of media gigs. We can’t wait to help you launch your career!!
DO YOU OFFER PAYMENT PLANS?
The topics covered in each call are customized to suit the needs of the group. They typically include discussions on setting rates, devising strategies to earn your first $5K in media, crafting effective pitches, negotiating with brands, understanding contract terms, and cultivating a positive mindset with goal setting. Additionally, we host what we call "true mastermind days" where each participant has the opportunity to share challenges, questions, or opportunities with the group. During these sessions, everyone contributes ideas, feedback, and solutions to support one another.
HOW DO THE TRAINING CALLS WORK?
That's absolutely okay! There are so many ways to engage with the media as an expert. TV isn't the only avenue, although it presents lucrative opportunities. If you're hesitant about TV, diving into it can reveal how enjoyable and profitable it can be, allowing you to endorse brands you genuinely love. Alternatively, there are avenues like recipe development, food writing, photography, and creating social media content, such as recipe reels where your face isn't featured at all. All of these avenues can also lead to a successful and lucrative media career!
