Individual Mentorship

Plot Twist: You’re Enough

My mentorship is both radical and gentle, exploring your unique path with an intuitive, non-linear approach. I work in liminal spaces—where uncertainty creates fertile ground for self-awareness and discovery. No quick fixes, just honest, collaborative growth.

When I hold space, I see two essential layers: your wounds and shadows, and your inherent gifts and authentic potential. This allows for deep compassionate understanding while recognizing your fundamental wholeness.

My approach is about you actively participating in your own healing. We'll connect over our combined strengths and vulnerabilities, helping you feel empowered and capable and most importantly, not alone.

You don’t need to be saved, you deserve to be empowered.

  • Talisman Brolin has worked with both my daughters, and the impact on our family has been profound. Talisman brings the same creative, compassionate approach to connection and communication, but what sets them apart is their ability to intuitively and skillfully apply the right techniques at the right time for each of my uniquely different children.

    For my ten-year-old, Talisman provides a nurturing space where she practices healthy emotional and physical boundaries, communication, and consent. Through tools like emotion wheels and somatic awareness, my daughter has learned to explore and process her feelings in a way that builds confidence with both peers and adults. Talisman’s approach resonates so deeply that we’ve adopted many of these practices at home.

    For my five-year-old daughter, who is non-verbal and neurodivergent, Talisman’s creative methods have been transformative. My daughter has big emotions and often lacks the tools to express them healthily. Talisman not only helps her slow down and feel seen, but also guides me in supporting her as she navigates a world that isn’t always designed for her to succeed. Talisman’s intuitive ability to meet both of my daughters exactly where they are has empowered them to grow emotionally, trust how they are feeling, and communicate with agency, while giving me more confidence as a parent.

    I highly recommend Talisman’s holistic, compassionate approach to anyone seeking emotional support for their children.

  • Talisman's presence is truly transformative. She carries a remarkable energy that's impossible to define yet impossible to miss, radiating brightness, love, grounding, and welcome. The greatest gift she offers is the space for authenticity.

    What makes Talisman extraordinary is her beautiful balance of qualities. She embodies confidence while remaining gentle and generous. She knows exactly when to step forward with leadership and solutions, and when to simply be present. Her energy is a beautiful paradox—graceful yet incredibly strong—and it radiates outward.

    Talisman meets people exactly where they are, with exactly what they need. This intuitive understanding of others is her superpower. In moments of vulnerability and doubt, just connecting with her creates a profound sense of safety. Her presence is a sanctuary. She has this rare ability to help people remember what they are capable of and that they are not alone.

    People seeking guidance instinctively recognize that she's the one to help them navigate their journey. She brings immeasurable joy, warmth, and love to those who recognize her exceptional nature. Those fortunate enough to have her as a friend and mentor are better for it. Her parents chose her name perfectly—she truly is a talisman.

  • Talisman is a truly generous spirit. She wants people to thrive and is at her energetic best when collaborating with clients and helping them figure out what they need. Talisman meets clients “where they are at”; she’s open-hearted, nonjudgmental, empathetic, and committed. She’ll be your advocate, guide, supporter, and champion. She’s spent her adult life working with people from all walks of life—she’s most certainly an asset.

  • Discovering my daughter's potential with Talisman has been transformative. She understood her in ways we couldn't and helped her process all aspects of her life with patience and insight. What began as photography tutoring seamlessly expanded into a comprehensive journey of self-discovery.

    Talisman helped her find her personal and creative voice, develop social skills, build confidence, and learn to negotiate her professional worth. Beyond teaching photography techniques and image editing, she collaborated with her on building a website and designing marketing materials. She also developed strategies for life workflow and accountability skills, teaching her how to manage projects efficiently and follow through on commitments. Her holistic approach even extended to helping her declutter her personal space to fully embrace the emotional, mental, and professional changes she was working through.

    Watching her embrace this exploration as an adventure rather than a setback has been remarkable. Talisman guided her to find her own goals, routines, and motivations at her own pace. Her approach focuses on empowerment and authentic growth, not rushing to meet society's timeline.

    No matter the outcome, the self-discovery journey they've taken together has equipped her with tools for a fulfilling life. We're deeply grateful for her mentorship and her ability to see her unique strengths when she couldn't yet see them herself.
