The Final Voyage
LIGHTHOUSE'S AWARD-WINNING MENTOR PROGRAM
Lighthouse’s mentor program is now
offering TWO unique program options!
I’m Cathy Goddard, Lighthouse’s Founder and I’ve lovingly and meticulously put together a mentor program that makes a difference. For 10 years, I’ve personally facilitated, guided and championed those participating to delve into what they want to achieve and nudge them forward. And now, I’m excited to announce that the 2021-2022 program will be the last one – it’s your chance to be part of this FINAL VOYAGE.
To celebrate this milestone, we are offering two unique programs for you to chart your course, break through barriers, and come together with an incredible peer network. Choose one program or both – whatever works for you.
Imagine if you could.....
- bring on successful results more quickly while avoiding the pitfalls of bad decisions and steep learning curves
- tap into a community of leaders and learners with diverse knowledge to guide your business or career long the way
- build a success mindset and personal mastery that fits your unique life to achieve both business and personal goals
-
break through the traps that we so commonly fall into and learn to quiet your inner critic, overcome fears, unhook from both praise and criticism... to build the life you deserve
-
make changes that nudge you towards more contentment, better health, greater results - to get clarity and answers even though the questions may not always be clear
Life often throws us challenges. Equipping yourself with what you need to create the life you deserve is the secret sauce. And, a desire for change doesn’t make you ungrateful – it just opens you up to forming a support network to move towards more contentment, better health, greater results. To get answers even though the questions may not always be clear.
Laurie Buchanan said it best:
“Whatever you are not changing, you are choosing.”
What You Can Expect From Lighthouse Programs
For 10 years, those participating in Lighthouse’s Mentor Program have raved about the benefits. Keep reading to discover what makes this program different from the rest but meanwhile… here’s a glimpse at some of those benefits.
- Shared Knowledge & Advice — from peers that come with fresh perspective, diverse expertise and knowledge, and who have done successfully in their business what you would like to create in yours.
- Support — to solve problems, offer encouragement, build confidence and celebrate successes.
- Networking with Community & Connections — a confidential think tank of leaders and learners from non-competing businesses gather to share their connections and networks in a collaborative, safe environment.
- Resources, Tips & Tools — a shared pool of resources and best practices to save you time, money and energy.
- Focus & Accountability — facilitated sessions keep everyone on track and group accountability keeps everyone motivated.
What Makes Lighthouse Programs Different?
-
It blends an online course so you can listen and learn as convenient AND has a live, interactive component with your peers.
You not only have a group of peers but also ME - a seasoned entrepreneur, business coach, mentor and Lighthouse's Founder - to nudge, support, inspire and motivate you. - You are not left on your own to fizzle out because you work through the program alongside a small group of leaders and learners. That sets you up to build momentum - to personalize the learnings, apply what is relevant, implement and build on it to craft your future. Oh, and you have me too! Next point......
- Yup, you have me - a seasoned entrepreneur, business coach, mentor and Lighthouse's Founder! I have designed, created and built on this award-winning mentor program for 10 years to ensure that it is the best it can be. And, I am there every step of the way - for meetings, questions, guidance, cheerleading and championing.
- You - and everyone in the program - is both a mentor and a mentee. No matter what stage of life and career you're in, you will absolutely learn something. And, you also know more than you think so this is your chance to share it. If you felt a twinge of self-doubt when you read that last line, move on to the next point.....
- This program takes a holistic approach that blends personal and professional realms. You may not know what you want to specifically achieve at the start but, with the tools, resources and guidance you'll work through it. Of course, setting intentions and goals is all part of it BUT, exploring the barriers that ultimately hold us back will be paramount to an enriched future.
- Lifetime access to Lighthouse Mentor Connection, our alumni community. With access to almost 200 women that have been through the program (many of them multiple times because they keep coming back!), you will have a network to support you, refresh your toolkit and share best practices and advices. Community and connection to nudge you forward.
What Are My Choices & How Does It Work?
With two program options to choose from, I’ve designed this for action, accountability and impact. And, while you will fill your toolkit with knowledge, inspiration and direction – you are not left on your own to fizzle out. These are COLLABORATIVE programs where you’ll work alongside your peers (and me!) in a dynamic, confidential environment – for connection and community and results!
You can choose either one or both of these program options – whatever suits your unique needs.

Program #2
Lighthouse Mentor Groups
Apply by: January 1, 2022
Program Start Date: January 10, 2022
In January 2022, we will roll out Lighthouse’s signature mentor program. Participants are carefully screened and placed in small groups (maximum 6) with like-minded women committed to a culture of learning, support and positive impact. This program kicks off with online modules to guide you through self-discovery and setting intentions to achieve what you want. Then, meetings are held online or in person every 3 or 4 weeks to cover goals, key challenges with solution sharing and to weave in the transformational concepts and ideas from the learning modules.
This option is designed to place you in a group that will maximize your mentor experience so you do need to apply.

PROGRAM STARTS
Oct 1, 2021
This program option offers foundational learning modules delivered in an online course that will guide you every step of the way. And, because we work best in short digestible learning, the course modules and exercises are designed to be effective and actionable. You can login anytime and learn at your own pace with back-up support if you need it. Complemented with Lighthouse’s online meetings, you are not left on your own to fizzle out. With a blend of practical, no-nonsense tools and strategies — and a teeny bit of ‘woo-woo’ and wisdom immersed in there — you will shine a light on your barriers, manifest your potential and learn to be more loyal to you and your dreams than your fears. The learning modules will transform you.
Here is how we do it.
Module 1: WELCOME ORIENTATION
Setting You Up for Success
We kick things off with a road map of what to expect, program guidelines and values. This module walks you through the entire program, enabling you to make the most of it. And, most importantly, to personalize it to your unique life and circumstances.
Module 2: SETTING YOUR FOUNDATION
Celebrate & Recalibrate
Module 2 will set the foundation for what you want to create and achieve. Using a vast array of tools and your personalized Wellness Wheel, you’ll explore self-reflection, quizzes to better understand yourself and others, celebrate your achievements, reload and plan for accountability.
Module 3: INNER TEACHERS
Inner Critic ~ Inner Mentor ~ Inner Child
This module was life changing for those participating in the previous program. And now, it’s expanded to include a 3rd Inner Teacher. Specially designed with transformational tools to elevate your abilities to learn from what’s already inside you. Tried and true techniques to: Quiet Your Inner Critic; Follow Your Inner Mentor and Awaken Your Inner Child.
Module 4: YOUR MINDSET GAME PLAN
Meeting the Challenges
This is a meaty module with 4 segments that will cover the barriers and hazards that we all experience. While we all experience them (or at the very least some of them), how we allow them to guide us is highly personal. At any rate, the barriers dim our light and manifest in ways that ultimately hold us back. You’ll explore: Your Relationship with Praise & Criticism; The Gift of Fear; Setting Boundaries and The Power of Language: Communicate with Confidence.
Module 5: NAVIGATING THROUGH IT ALL
Making the Right Choices for Lasting Change
This wrap-up module will focus on setting the stage to move forward. Specifically, to use these tools and knowledge to create change and sustainable impact for the life you deserve and want!

I am with you every single step of the way! I attend every meeting and session as your guide and champion.

If you feel you need even more support, the accountability partnerships are there to help. Completely optional, this paradigm can be formed to support, share progress and keep momentum going in between meetings.

Exclusive access to the Lighthouse Mentor Connection, a private Facebook group of leaders and learners. This forum is a dynamic collective of past and present mentors (almost 200 alumni) for access to widespread sharing of resources, tools, tips and knowledge. It’s also promotional power for your business or blog or whatever else you have going on.
Program #2: Mentor Groups
For 10 years, I’ve lovingly and meticulously put together a mentor program that makes a difference. During that time, almost 250 dynamic, insightful women have come together to share their unique business wisdom and life lessons with each other. And 2022 will be the last time I’ll run this program – it is the FINAL VOYAGE.
The program launches with an online platform that delves deep to set a foundation for what you want to create and achieve. Using a vast array of tools, you’ll explore self-reflection, celebrate your achievements, reload and plan for accountability. Specially designed to chart your personalized Wellness Wheel and give you everything to set personal and professional intentions – and develop goals that will move you forward.
However, one thing that makes Lighthouse’s mentor program so unique is the application and screening process. Whereas other mentor programs often just onboard whoever signs up, I (as Lighthouse’s Founder) review every application to assess the best fit for the program. I connect with applicants about what they may want from the program, whether it will provide what they need and most importantly, whether it will be a memorable and impactful journey for everyone involved. The end result will have you in a group with 5 other women that will cheerlead, support and uplift you. Guaranteed!
Bottom line – this program sells out every year so if you are placed in one of the mentor groups, it is because I am 100% confident that it’s a good fit. On top of all that, the core expectations are that anyone joining the mentor groups:
- bring a high regard for confidentiality and a commitment of mutual respect
- are open to exploring, discovering and learning
- have a willingness to give of themselves, their knowledge and their expertise
- possess diverse skills and business knowledge to the group plus come from non-competing businesses
- are committed to the mentor program’s guiding principles and code of conduct

Our most popular mentor offering, these groups provide female business owners (either start-up or more experienced entrepreneurs) with an intensive learning experience guaranteed to elevate business success. Targeting the unique challenges and opportunities associated with being an entrepreneur, participants share and acquire knowledge with a strong focus on building a success mindset and personal mastery to achieve both business and personal goals.
This group features everything offered in the other mentor groups but will focus on the unique challenges of women over 40 years of age. Whether wanting to transition to another career or retirement, adjusting to life with young children or the ‘empty nest syndrome’ or addressing health challenges unique to this stage of life – this group will equip and empower you with shared knowledge and tools to build abundance for this next life stage.
This is the only mentor group tailored to those innovative, employed individuals looking for personal and professional development and growth. Sharing and acquiring knowledge will provide strategy and leadership skills to elevate your career success.
