Year Three
Lower price, broader discounts, selective high-value access
We are moving away from packing the EC Collective calendar with event after event. Instead, we are substantially lowering the membership price and rewarding members with something more flexible: discounted access across the entire Embrace Change ecosystem.
You stay connected to EC. You keep access to the Vault. And when a workshop, product, coaching session, Salon, or new opportunity speaks directly to what you need, you receive special access and the member rate.
No pressure to attend anything. No guilt about another unfinished program. Use the Collective when you need it.

Small room. Serious conversation.
The EC Salons are intimate, high-level conversations with Cynthia and other independent service providers who are actively earning, building, and adapting, not simply talking about it online.
Each Salon will feature Cynthia and two experienced operators. These are not beginner webinars. The content is built for people who already have something in motion in their career and want to understand how experienced BIPOC are earning more now.
How member access works:
Five live seats at every Salon are reserved for EC Collective members at no additional cost.
All remaining seats will be sold publicly for $49.
Because the rooms are intentionally small, complimentary member seats are limited and require advance registration.
Live attendees receive access to the Salon replay. Membership alone does not include the replay.
Topics include
How service providers are making money online now
Fractional work: what it is and how to get it
The systems behind a sustainable consulting business
The ins and outs of Board service
Turning expertise into a second source of income
Reservation required.
You don’t always need a full-blown program.
Sometimes all you need is one focused conversation with a skilled coach who can help you see the situation more clearly and decide what to do next.
EC Collective members can book one-off coaching sessions for $99 each with graduates of the Embrace Change Coaching Certification program.
ECCC is an ICF Level 1 Accredited coach-training program specifically centered on BIPOC coaches working with BIPOC clients. Graduates receive rigorous coaching education and earn a coaching certification from Embrace Change.Learn more about ECCC.
No package required. No long-term coaching commitment.
The sessions are purchased separately and are available exclusively to EC Collective members.
