GBWow! Just what I've been needing!! Wow! I'm only 2 weeks into this program and kicking myself for waiting so long to get here! This is exactly the training I've been looking for! After struggling to get my coaching business off the ground, I now feel re-energized and clear about the steps I need to take (that I wasn't taking) and WHY I need to take them! Getting ready to host my beta webinar next week and implement the exact strategy & scripts we're learning in HTE. Tara & her team of coaches are phenomenal and at helping us stay motivated, take clear consistent action, and recognize our blind stops. I'm also so grateful to be a part of this amazing community of rockstar entrepreneurial women who actively support & cheer each other on! If you're thinking about this program, stop spinning your wheels trying to decide. Just do it already. You won't regret it.
Emotionally Heartbroken
GBDid not meet pitched expectation! Was not for a beginner. Emotionally heartbroken in the end over experience. I was brand new into the coaching space as I entered this program. I was also a FT health practitioner with a full caseload. I was told the tech would be easy and for me, it was not. I was told by the salesperson when I joined it would take up 5-10 hours of my time per week.It did not. It took me about 20hours per week to catch up to where I needed to be in order to be in a space to handle ALL of the new tech, information and implement it so I would be able to keep up with the pace of the program. This program moves incredibly fast for a newbie like me and it was absolutely NOT appropriate for someone who was just starting… completely overwhelming in the end. The coaching as a whole was poor. The style is not generally affirming or supportive, except for coach Andrew who was literary amazing and the only coach who was positive, truly gifted and encouraging. The other coaches came across cold and distant and really were not suited to someone new to the coaching field. The main coach Tara was a significant disappointment in live coaching calls and would challenge anyone of her clients who was struggling through gaslighting and blaming the client for whatever was not “clicking” or going well. In the coaching calls, she represented the antithesis of what I hope to be as a coach and her style was not suited to a positive, encouraging or supportive learning environment. If you were doing well she was quick to come along side you with praise and take much of the credit. If you weren’t and were struggling, “you were doing something wrong or not working hard enough”… basically it was your fault. The reason for the 2 stars is because I did certainly learn a lot and was able to write my coaching program and I feel so good about that and am thankful. If I’m honest, I was able to accomplish what I did because I was pushed. HTE pushes well. However the emotional scarring was truly heartbreaking and left me feeling confused, discouraged as a coach and questioning myself. I do not believe the pitch for the program meets the truth of what someone should expect. I feel the promise or suggested realistic expectation of making money for the prospected coach, far outweighs what is a reasonable expectation. Not appropriate for a new coach and not worth the massive investment. ** Also much of what she teaches in her program is available for Free… I had no idea. Tara is incredibly smart, successful and has much to offer. However this particular offering & program left me personally scarred, emotionally beat and I lost thousands of dollars in the process. I feel I have a responsibility to let other’s know what to expect in full transparency of my experience.

GBThey Don't Honor Their Guarantee Their sponsored ads on Facebook state " We GUARANTEE you will make $20,000 in just 30 days after working with us or you'll get your money back". LIES! They do not provide a copy of their contract until AFTER your payment is collected. After 30 days, multiple submissions, countless coaching call attendances, over 300 members in my group, 3 webinars, 16+ strategy sessions, and ZERO dollars made, I requested a refund based on their guarantee. Unbeknownst to me, it came with stipulations not communicated prior to my request. While they originally denied my request for a refund, I was able to respond and not only provide proof of every effort made, but clearly articulate the requirements they should follow when making such guarantees. One must follow the FTC laws, state laws, the Uniform Commercial Code and the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. Here's a detailed list of items their business has failed to do in regards to their "guarantee": 1. In the U.S., there is no law that requires businesses to offer money-back guarantees, but if companies advertise one, they must fully refund the purchase and make all requirements and limitations clear. If you do make any guarantees, the basic tenets of FTC and state advertising law need to be followed 2. Making guarantees are just like any other advertisement or claim. You can’t refuse to honor or follow through with any guarantee or misrepresent the nature of any guarantee, as stated on your website, terms of sale or elsewhere. Do what you say you will without limitations. 3. If you use the terms “money back guarantee” on your website or advertising, your business must provide any customers with a refund of the full purchase price upon request. You can provide some mechanism for processing refunds and make your customers go through that process. But, it can’t be burdensome or unreasonable and you should always refund the purchase price immediately after the customer has requested the refund 4. Like any other disclosure, any guarantee must be clear, conspicuous and easy to understand. Do not try to conceal or mislead the nature of any limitation on any warranties your business may provide 5. Inform your customers how to get a copy of any warranty your business provides before they purchase any products 6. Always Honor Your Warranties! Under state laws, it can be an unfair or deceptive act or practice to fail to honor a warranty I gave them until Monday January 30th at 5pm PST to provide a resolution to my problem before seeking help from a consumer protection agency or other assistance. Unfortunately, they did not respond even though they revoked access to the training portal along with the private Facebook group and Slack channels. Potential Buyers, you've been warned! Update: Refund was provided only AFTER I left this review and made a formal complaint with BBB. 2nd Update: What is disheartening is their misrepresentation of the facts. The facts are as follows: 12/22/22 joined HTE 1/26/23 requested refund 1/27/23 refund denied by Priscilla 1/27/23 deny refuted and HTE was given until 1/30/23 at 5pm PST to respond with a resolution 1/30/23 response was not received from HTE and review on TrustPilot and complaint with BBB were filed 1/31/23 received an email from Priscilla agreeing to refund and asking to remove the review

GBBest decision ever! Best decision ever! When I joined HTE only 28 days ago, I felt discouraged from trying to figure it out on my own for over 8 months. I was lacking clarity about my offers and I’ve tried a few different things but had no good strategy in place. I was so close to quitting… until I got tagged in Tara’s ad online. Within a matter of days, I found myself on my first coaching call. I was nervous as imposter syndrome kicked in. But Tara is NOT ONLY an amazing business coach, BUT ALSO her mindset bonus training helped me to understand and overcome childhood traumas around my worth and money mindset. A game changer! Now, I’ve already sold 4 BETA spots organically (10k in revenue) and I am about to turn on my ads! The sky is the limit!!!! So excited 🥳

GBA bit like snake oil... It's been a year, and still paying off the debt incurred with the HTE Over Promise and Over Sell program. Even though I expressed up front that I worked FT and could not make the daytime zoom calls, I was assured that this would not be a requirement, BUT IT WAS. I was in about a week, maybe two and discovered that this was not the program that I was sold by Kevin. He was good at closing for Tara's deals, but not by delivering what was promised. Sadly, the whole process felt really snakey and heartless!! Just a word or two of causion for anyone looking at utilizing their so call tools.
