FAQs:
What is mentoring?
Mentoring is the support that a person gets from someone who has the awareness, skills, knowledge, and most of all the fruits of the goal that is being sought by the mentee. It is therefore different from the short term hype that one gets from motivational speakers and inspirational books or videos. Those get you excited to move without a clear path on where to start.
A mentor, however, is a person who has the know-how to get you out of your struggles and walks that path beside you until the desired goal is reached. Are you ready to have the Support from someone who knows? Click here to pick the mentoring program that will add the most value to you.
What is the role of mentoring in history?
The roots of mentoring go back to ancient Greece. ln years past, mentoring was sought from parents and adults within a community. Older people were looked at as wise, and the people who had enough experience to offer solutions.
People later broke from strong community setups to concentrate on smaller groups, while others realized that old age did not necessarily mean wisdom and ability to offer workable solutions.
As time went by, the need for support turned into a professional Opportunity for those who showed a passion and strength in supporting and impacting others.
Does mentoring actually work?
Mentoring works and the results are consistently adding value to people’s lives. The secret to seeing the mentoring process actually work is searching for mentors who already have the fruits being sought. A person can only give you what they have, and if their own life is full of chaos, then that is what they will bring to you.
PIQ Living mentoring uses models which have been proven to be simple, fast and effective. The mentors not only live with fruits but also have the first-hand experience in knowing how to reach for those fruits. There are core PIQ Living membership programs that offer guaranteed results, click on the ‘Mentoring Programs’ tab to pick the group that meets your needs.
What can mentoring do for my life?
Mentoring brings in the value that you want to add to your life. If you feel you are struggling, a mentor will help you identify and block the chaos that has been keeping you away from your Ideal Life.
Mentoring is also for people who feel they are ‘almost there’ in achieving their goals but sense a gap that pushes them backward.
Don’t feel like you have problems to resolve? Mentoring can also just strengthen existing frameworks in place, fine-tuning the tools you already have to get to the next place in life. The ‘Mentoring Programs’ tab will highlight which mentoring program would work best for you.

Who will be mentoring me?
PIQ Living mentoring utilizes unique and effective teaching models. Results can be seen in short time frames if not immediately after implementing these lessons. All PIQ Mentors are well trained in all assessment tools and models before they can mentor anyone.
They have all had first-hand experiences learning and executing our models. All mentoring is supervised by our Founder and Master Mentor, Dave Darby, who has over 20 years of experience successfully mentoring people to their desired goals. Check out our founder’s page to learn more.

Each membership is also set in packages that enable you to save your investments (weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annually).
How can you help my marriage if my spouse refuses to join?
That’s a great question, one we get often but that fact is, over 80% of the marriages we’ve helped in 20 years have been through just one spouse. The reason is simple, it takes two people to make a marriage fail or succeed. But it only takes one person to learn and lead.
We teach you to understand and communicate your needs better and then you can teach your spouse the same. Your spouse can even join (with a discount) to take his/her own profiles and do his/her own homework.
But often times, it just takes one person to make the initiative. Your spouse will notice that you see/hear their needs and they will open up to you.
How does your marriage program work?
So here is how PIQ Living™ Marriage Mentoring works. First, our mentors, including our founder Dave Darby, have been trained from over 20 years of experience and successes in helping marriages, many on the brink of divorce, to not only survive but to THRIVE.
Second, our marriage Mentors have never been divorced and have worked to build their own strong marriages through PIQ Living models. Traditional marriage counseling is more expensive (usually $150 or more for just 45 minutes), less effective (50% divorce rates), and many marriage “counselors” have not only been divorced but offer divorce counseling if you fail in their program. Our success rate is over 95%, so we don’t mentor on how to divorce.
Third, we’ve made it very affordable with several membership options and privacy variations. Gain premium access to our website to read articles/lessons (yes, there is homework!) AND take FIVE personality and needs profiles at no added cost ($149 value). If you’d rather forego the discounts set up for the monthly membership, you can start with $59/week. It usually takes about two weeks to see positive results starting in your marriage.
The point is, if are you committed to getting help, we have the tools and will give you unlimited Support each week/month to rebuild and strengthen your marriage. You can view the Challenger membership periods and privacy here.
Can I cancel at anytime and would I be able to resume mentoring later on?
Yes of course. Your assessment results and chat results will not be lost and you can pick up after some time has passed. Clients who want results, however, do best to stick with it and learn/apply the PIQ Living™ models. The more going on in your life, frankly, the MORE you need to start learning/applying these models. If you’re too busy to improve your life, then that is part of the problem causing you struggles.
Can you call my spouse and convince them to join?
We’re not really aggressive with sales and that to us, crosses some boundaries. If your spouse wants to learn/apply the models along with you, they can, of course, follow along with your chats or join to create their own space for chats/learning as well. We offer discounts for spouses. But we’re just not going to pursue them, or you in an aggressive way. If you want to rebuild your relationship, we can work with you to create the change you are looking for. Your spouse will likely want to be a part of the change, but it isn’t necessary to get started.
Is it true that mentoring will cost me thousands of dollars per year?
Actually, many people think that and most times it does. Quality mentoring like we do at PIQ Living IS an investment and you get what you pay for in life. However, the PIQ Living mentoring model is breaking new ground. We are utilizing technology and small groups to scale our services while providing the same high quality that we do in individual sessions. This enables everyone to benefit from quality mentoring, but at a fraction of the cost.
What if I need mentoring but can’t afford to pay for it?
If you need mentoring but are struggling financially, get started as our Explorer Member where you will enjoy articles, slide shares, videos, and be part of a self-learning peer group. You can also apply for our scholarship program.
We review each submission on a case by case basis, first come, first serve. We are currently offering ten scholarships per month ($199/month value each) and we will not be able to meet everybody’s needs at once. So, don’t hesitate to submit and be patient as we want great people with great energy like you around!
