A HOP, SKIP AND A JUMP TO CLARITY

🪴How it works

  • Browse our growing network of women with real-world experience — from freelancers and founders to creatives and career-switchers. Each one offers clarity, encouragement, and practical advice.

    Choose someone based on the insight you need , whether it's:

    • Starting a business

    • Marketing yourself

    • Navigating a career pivot

    • Getting more confident

    • Or just taking that scary first step

  • Pick a time that works for you.
    Each session is a one-hour video call hosted via Google Meet, with options for built-in note-taking and summaries, so you can focus on the chat and revisit key points later.

    We’ll send you everything you need by email and you can manage or reschedule your booking easily.

  • Your call is led by you, focused entirely on the topic you’ve chosen.
    This isn’t a pitch or a presentation — it’s a conversation with someone who gets it.

    Expect:

    • Clarity on your next steps

    • Honest advice based on lived experience

    • Reassurance that you’re not alone

    You’ll leave with more direction, more confidence, and a little less overwhelm.

FAQs

  • Booking is easy. Just browse our mentor directory, choose someone whose expertise matches what you need, and select a time that works for you. Once you’ve booked and paid, you’ll get a confirmation email with a video call link and any prep info you might need.

  • We do the heavy lifting so you don’t have to — from scheduling to payments to call summaries. But more than that, every mentor on HeyHopscotch has been personally vetted. We only invite people we know have done the work and are experts in their field. That means you can trust you’re getting the best advice possible in the time you have — not just a big Instagram following. Real help from real people.

  • Each mentor’s profile includes what they offer, who they’re best suited to help, and often a short video so you can get a feel for their approach. If you're not sure who to choose, just message us and we’ll help pair you with someone who’s a great fit for your situation.

  • Our mentors genuinely want to help — most of them remember what it felt like to be just starting out or figuring out your next steps. While they’re often experts in their field, that doesn’t mean they’re all earning six figures or coasting. Juggling freelance work or running a business can be tough. HeyHopscotch gives them a way to supplement their income, use their hard-earned experience, and help someone else along the way.

  • Life happens — you can cancel or reschedule up to 24 hours before your session for a full refund or to pick a new time.
    In order to protect our mentors’ time, we’re not able to offer refunds for cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice — though we’ll always do our best to help if something unexpected comes up.

  • If your mentor needs to cancel, you’ll be offered a choice: reschedule at a time that works for you or receive a full refund. We’ll also do our best to help you find a great alternative if your original mentor isn’t available.

  • Each session is a focused, one-hour video call. It’s a chance to get expert insight, honest advice, or guidance on a challenge you're facing. Be realistic about what can be done in an hour — it’s not about the mentor doing the work for you, but about helping you move forward with confidence and clarity.
    You can absolutely book more than one session if you have a lot to cover. To get the most out of your time, fill in the briefing form as soon as you can — that gives your mentor time to prep and bring their best thinking to the call.

  • If the session didn’t meet your expectations, let us know. While we don’t offer automatic refunds, we’ll always look into it and do what we can to make things right.
    Don't forget — the best way to ensure a useful session is to give your mentor as much info as possible ahead of time when prompted. The more they know, the better they can help.
