“Eve encouraged me to start my own business, and the thought of leaving my stable, corporate (low paying) job was terrifying. She mentored me through the process, and now I earn 3 times what I did working for someone else. I have freedom, flexibility and more time and money for my family and things I enjoy. I am eternally grateful to Eve for helping me change my life. If you feel stuck or know deep down that there is something better out there for you, Eve can help you too!”

“Eve Mayer is the reason my book exists. Her encouragement, insight, and tough love gave me the push I needed to write Pitch the Bitch — and more importantly, to believe it mattered. While we often lean on each other for our individual expertise, Eve has always been a champion for the right voices — the ones that deserve to be heard, the stories that need to be told. Her energy is magnetic, her passion is contagious, and her ability to connect people and mission is unmatched. It’s a privilege to be part of the butterfly effect she creates wherever she goes.”
