The Mentoring Program
B.Com., LL.B., D.PIR., M.S.S.C. (International Relations), M.A. (Judicial Admin.), F.C.I.R.
- Go to the About John Page and do a quick read on how my five university degrees are all associated with F.A.I.L.s that ignited my personalized P.A.S.S. and enabled me to succeed as a law professor and leading-edge professional career program developer.
- I created the Canada Law From Abroad (www.canadalawfromabroad.com) and have mentored and counselled more than 1,000 aspiring professionals on law and law related graduate professional degree programs in top tier UK universities.
- The legal profession was notorious in erecting artificial barriers for accrediting foreign law degrees. I petitioned all provincial parties and was granted standing to advocate for the reform of international accreditation to comply with objective criteria pursuant to the "Fair Access to Regulated Professions Act (FARPA)". I'm conversant with the Canadian accreditation of international professional degrees.
The Mentoring Program
- Mentoring is serious business. It' not just about having a friendly chat. My mentoring program will cost your $350.00 to participate in. That's approximately "1 %" of the $35,000 it will cost you to obtain your Bachelor of Health degree. Think of it as an investment and mentoring as your investment advisory.
- My mentoring is an "encore career" with a mission I've taken on to make a contribution to holistic health by showing you how to create a pathway to a personalized professional health career.
- Once we enter into a mentoring relationship you'll receive a copy of my book "Meaningful Memories".
- Your personalized mentoring program starts by me mentoring you on how to let go of all of the noise you're getting from family friends and guidance counsellors about where the smart careers are and learning to think for yourself about who you really are and the personalized professional holistic health career pathway you want to take to live life to the fullest.
- I'm going to get your started by having you do select reads from my book, Meaningful Memories. Go to the "Book" page for an overview.
- You're going to read C.2 (Teach Your Children Well ) and C.5 (The Fight for What's Right ) in my book for first-hand accounts of how personal F.A.I.L.s in my youth were rekindled in my adult life to guide me to professional pathways to live life to the fullest.
- The reading of the chapters will provide you with case studies how to identify and rekindle your meaningful memories in a F.AI.L. context.
- Put yourself in a quiet space. Focus on your critical list of F.A.I.L.s. Select a short list of those that have special meaning for you. Write a 250 word personal statement on what you've learned and e-mail it to me.
- I'll review your F.A.I.L. statement and schedule a 30 minute feedback zoom to help you clarify and articulate them in an aspirational format. This will be the key to "igniting your passion".
- You're now ready to P.A.S.S.
- Revise your personal statement to align it with your P.A.S.S.
- E-mail the revised statement to me. I'll review the revised statement and schedule a 30 minute zoom. I'll guide you through the medical and the professional holistic health programs listed on the site and nudge you toward those that are aligned with your passion.
- I'll email you details on the programs aligned with your passion.
- Read C. 18 (Working for the Man) and C. 19 (A Good Read) for background on how to avoid the "careerism" trap that captivates so many professionals who channel their passion in the wrong direction and how aligning it with a pathway where you can do well, do good and make a contribution is the key to living life to the fullest.
- Draft a final revision of your personal statement that links your passion for a medical and/or holistic health career with living life to the fullest.
- E-mail the final revision to me. I'll review it and schedule a 30 minute completion session.
- Oh, by the way. Give C. 20 ( Millions Can't Buy Your Love or a Happy Life). You'll find out that I became financially successful by "igniting my passion" and doing good and doing well as a professional career mentor. I don't need your $350 but I need you to demonstrate that you're serious by making a financial commitment.
