- Recordings, rejoin-next-batch options, and coach support are part of the mentorship packaging (see course page for current terms).
- Free discovery: webinars (/webinars), and 1:1 coach booking via the site CTAs / Topmate when offered.
- Contact NAP above is consistent across footer, About, and this file.
