WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO LEARN FROM SHAUNA IN THIS VALUE-PACKED 6 WEEK CERTIFICATION ONLINE COURSE

Put your passion for personal styling, fashion, and coaching to good use by making a major difference in a persons life when it comes to how they feel about their wardrobe and how they present themselves to the world. 

Many individuals are seeking professional help because they value the personalized feedback a personal style expert or image consultant offers them. Not only can you help them define a personal style that is hassle-free and truly them, you can change their entire outlook regarding how they feel about their body and themselves.  Who doesn’t want that?


ONLINE LEARNING IS HOT. FOR A GOOD REASON. IF DONE RIGHT IT CAN PRODUCE GREAT RESULTS.

Online training providers within this industry have a bad reputation. Why? Because many training providers sell downloadable pdf’s and let you believe this is “e-learning”. Far from that. You deserve better. That’s why we offer:

  • Interactive video and audio based training content
  • Step-by-step instructional workbooks, checklists, and worksheets
  • Library of downloadable resources, tools, and links
  • Private online community for students and interaction with your instructors
