What happens next?

  • We will provide you with a link to our coaching calls and also send you a Meeting ID which will look something like this: Meeting ID: 994 7323 8113 and a meeting Password which will look something like this: Password: 8BEfyX

    The simplest method for you to join is to click on that link we have provided. It is recommended that you try to get connected a few minutes early in case there are any technical issues that arise with your devices or connection.

    Once you click on the meeting link, the next screen should show an option to Join a Meeting and you need to click it. You may then be asked to type in the Meeting ID and then the Password we sent you.

    After that you will want to connect your audio. All you usually have to do is click "Join Audio" or "Join Computer Audio." You may use a headset for the call but it's not necessary.

During the Session:

  • At the bottom of the screen there are some icons of a video camera and a speaker, by clicking those you can turn the video or sound on or off
  • Please note that most of the time the participants will be muted during the call so that background noises do not distract
  • While you don't have to have a webcam in order to join a Zoom meeting, it is recommended. You won't be able to transmit video (we won't be able to see your beautiful face) without a webcam of some sort, but most devices come equipped with those
  • There are some other controls that you can explore the more you use Zoom but for now enjoy connecting with people
