Summary
How do you know if you are ready for a mastermind? This is one of the most common questions that we see within our Powerhouse Women community. And today, we are addressing it, along with several others! As someone who not only hosts masterminds, but has also invested in several over the years, I am so excited to address this topic today and help guide you through how to choose the right mastermind for your business based on your goals, how much to invest in your 2022 mastermind, how to weigh the features and value certain masterminds have to offer, and so much more.
In this episode we talk about:
- Expectations: no one mentor will have all of your answers
- Doing your research and listening to your Intuition before making a decision on the mastermind you choose to join
- How to evaluate what you need more of in this season such as strategy, space to implement and expansive people.

( 25:53 ) Hannah shares her perspective on this question.
( 27:07 ) Heidi B. asks, "What features of the mastermind do you consider before investing––is it about the number of participants, the additional support coaches, the number of in-person retreats––and which do you think deliver the most value?"
( 31:11 ) Samantha M. asks, "How do you know when you're making the right decision hiring a mentor or joining a mastermind and not just getting caught up in 'fomo'"?
