“Shine your Light”
1-1 Mentoring
3-month Mentoring with Helene Banner for business founders
Start following your inner calling.
Bring your light into the world through your own business.
You have a high-level career. Now you feel that there is even “more” in you.
For all women who have this inner whisper of bringing their passion into the world - even if everyone around them will probably think that this is “crazy”!
For all women who, deep down, know that they have to explore this idea, this project, this dream.
For all women who are ready to take their next steps - but who do not want to go these steps on their own.
My message for you:
You deserve to shine in your full light.
Our Milestones together:
-
Get the mindset foundation you need to make the shift from your safe and stable “employed self” to your new identity as a star business woman who is ready to step into her next level to shine her light. Others may call this “uncertainty” and “risky”. Your new mindset gives you the inner safety and determination that make you ready to leap into a new territory - even if family and friends may want to protect you and ask those „and how will you live off that?“ questions.
We will work on your “business vision” to ensure that your idea does not only fully matches your skills and experience, but also your values and your „why“ - the true reason why you want to create impact and express yourself. We will also ensure that your business project is aligned with your idea of your new „freedom you“: your lifestyle, your feeling as a woman, your dreams. This is the „abundance“ mindset that you need to sustain the first periods of your business in which you may not yet make millions. Welcome to the „I deserve“ mindset!
-
Now we need to make sure that „the world“ will find out about the treasures you have inside you. The ground work for that is to define your dream client and the first strategic steps to build a community around you who loves and needs what you have to say. I will give you concrete inspiration to build your marketing strategy and you will receive honest feedback so that you can take your first visible steps towards the people who need your gifts and services.
Most business founders skip this foundation work out of impatience - and they experience much more frustrations than you will. I celebrate you for taking time for your ground work - it will serve you at every next business level!
-
It is time to formulate your services and products so that you can fully shine your light. In this part of our mentoring, you will receive concrete drafting templates for your sales page and feedback on your text ideas. Now that you know your dream clients better, this is an easy task for you: you will no longer feel as if you have to „sell“ something, but feel connected to the people who look for your support. You are now open for business - congratulations on having brought your passion to life!
With this milestone, you will learn the values and principles that you need to consistently grow your „soul business“ in a sustainable, healthy way from here onwards - rather than looking for „quick cash“. Enjoy this ride of your life - you will inspire so many more people with your light!

Let’s make the Mentoring fit for you. At our Kick-Off-Call, we will tailor the programme to your needs so that you achieve your personal goals with my support within our time together.

“Shine your Light” 1-1 Mentoring
Your results
Your Clarity.
What may have felt like an “inner calling” at the beginning now feels like a strong determination and a concrete, visible business project with a solid foundation. The next time somebody asks you about “what you do”, you will have a clear answer and the inner confidence to shine from within, no matter how “people” will react.
Your Ability to make people remember you & your message.
After our time together, you will prepare differently for your speeches and public speaking moments: You will think in “messages” rather than facts, you will think of your audience’s gain rather than your own. That magic mix will make people remember you and want to engage with you and your ideas. And that reaction, in return, will make you feel more and more confident about your ability to speak in public.
Your Stage Presence.
“You’ve inspired me.”
“Wow, your words really touched me!” People in the audience may not be able to pin down what happened: but “something” will have happened to them when you spoke. That is your stage presence. It will come from within you, from your personal truths, from your authentic leadership. This deeper confidence will give you that “spark” on stage - and this spark will also take you far in many more career moments.
How we will work together.
Our Schedule
Kick-Off Session (April 2023): Together, we will clarify your needs and your personal goal for the Mentoring. We will also set a powerful intention for the 3 months: what if you were already there?
6 individual 1-1 Mentoring Sessions à 75 minutes via Zoom. Over 3 months, we meet every two weeks so that you can integrate what we do into your work and build on first success stories.
Celebration Session à 90 minutes in early July 2023 to look back a your achievements.
Our 3 months together
We meet every two weeks: this rhythm gives you a structure and a safe space to grow. In our bi-weekly sessions, I will give you concrete tools and structure so that you can apply them “in between”, for example in work meetings.
All Sessions take place via Zoom. Depending on travel schedules, we may be able to meet in person in Brussels for some sessions, as per our agendas allow.
Scheduling and re-scheduling: If our agendas allow, we aim to meet at a fixed time every two weeks. You can also book or re-schedule your next session via my online calendar. Sessions need to be cancelled 24 hours in advance to be rescheduled.
Why 3 months?
I want to give you more than an “SOS coaching” on how to use your voice and arms when presenting. This Mentoring is a deep-dive to build your confidence from within, in a way that your stage presence becomes solid, because you truly believe in yourself.
My experience in long-term mentorings shows that true change in mindset starts after 3 weeks of starting a new routine. Over 3 months, you will get the chance to implement these changes and to make experiences - positive and negative - that we can safely integrate into our work.
It is very powerful that our Mentoring has an “end date”: it allows you to make progress and experience growth and small success stories within our 3 months together.
Your mentor
I am Helene Banner, a Keynote Speaker and Women Confidence Mentor. I founded my own business “Let’s Just Be Imperfect, Ladies” in 2020 to support more women and men in senior positions to find their own, authentic leadership style and voice on the top floors of their organisations.
My work is inspired by my own experience as a “young woman in senior positions”, after working in “communication jobs” at the European Commission in Brussels and Berlin for 10 years. In 2019 I was the German speechwriter of the President of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker. Prior to that, I as a spokesperson for a European Commissioner and as the Head of Communication of the Representation of the European Commission in Germany, I advised decision-makers on their messages and prepared them for their “public” moments. I am a trained journalist, graduated in political science and communication science at the University of Münster, the Institut d’Etudes Politiques de Lille and at the London School of Economics. As a Visiting Professor at the College of Europe in Bruges, I am teaching a workshop in strategic political communication.
