You receive admission to one of
Marilee Driscoll’s 9-Hr Reset programs.

l   These are held at least 3 times a year in
    Plymouth, MA.

l   This program is all about getting clear on your
    REAL goals and the SMARTEST strategy that
    will get you there. It’s often what Marilee calls
    a THIRD WAY – that hadn’t even crossed your
    mind!

l   We go from 30,000 feet high - all the way to
    nitty-gritty.

l   This program (which Marilee has been offering
    and refining for years) is transformative.

l   You leave with a poster filled with the WISDOM &
    CLARITY you found in the program.

l   If you want to hit the RESET button in your
    business (and we ALL need that - regularly), this
    is the way to do it easily - and affordably.

Are you an alum of the program? Or one of Marilee’s
former coaching or consulting clients? You don’t
have to be a new client to buy this!

Logistics: The program runs Thursday, noon to 4 PM,
and Friday, 8 AM to noon. In between, participants go
out to an optional dinner as a group (we each pay out
own bill). At the event, you will schedule a one-on-one
follow-up call with Marilee (30 minutes), and a group
follow-up call (30 minutes). Lodging and meals are
not included.

Ask Pamela Garramond and Nancy Michaels, who
attended in 2019. And Claudia Gere, who attended in
2018 and returned in 2019.
