Business Consulting
This a wonderful way to receive one-on-one strategy calls with Christy Gochez, Honey Midwifery’s Founder, to get marketing insight, brand clarity, and talk everything business. A 60-minute conversation to go in-depth about any aspect of your business to discover what you are doing amazing at and what you may be able to improve on. Our business coaching packages are perfect for first-time entrepreneurs looking to establish a strong business foundation or seasoned business owners looking to scale.
Careers
When I began my birth business I quickly learned that the genuine relationships I was building, meant I was a trusted resource for my clients, and I take this seriously. When I refer and vouch for other professionals in the field, I really know who they are professionally and personally. The professional connections I make become authentic friendships with individuals who really align with my values, work ethic and my type of clients’ personality. You won’t find a large team here–I keep my team size small, connected and close-knit.
When working together, you’ll have access to me, for guidance and counsel, and of course love and support. Because ensuring you are happy and successful, ensures my clients are too.
