All programs and services offered by Missy Project are subject to availability and at the sole discretion of Maribel Flores. Program formats, schedules, locations, and structures may change without prior notice.

Community Workshops

Community workshops are offered on a rolling basis and may take the form of single-session pop-ups or multi-session series. Scheduling, location, and availability are determined by Missy Project. Registration does not guarantee participation if capacity is reached.

Virtual Private Sessions

1:1 virtual sessions are arranged directly with Maribel Flores. Session pricing, scheduling, and format are confirmed through direct communication prior to the session.

Mentorship Cohorts

Mentorship is offered as a cohort experience. Cohort composition, timing, and structure are determined at the discretion of Maribel Flores. Expressing interest does not guarantee placement in a cohort.

Corporate Workshops

Corporate workshop engagements are confirmed through direct agreement with the contracting organization. All terms specific to corporate engagements are established prior to the workshop dates.

Cancellations by participants must be communicated to Maribel Flores as soon as possible through agreed-upon contact channels.

Workshop & Pop-Up Sessions

For free community workshops, no payment is involved. Registered participants who can no longer attend are asked to notify Missy Project so their spot can be offered to others.

For paid private sessions, mentorship, or corporate engagements, cancellation and refund terms are established at the time of booking confirmation. Any refunds, partial refunds, or credits are at the sole discretion of Maribel Flores.

Cancellation by Missy Project

Missy Project reserves the right to cancel, reschedule, or modify any program at any time. In the event of a cancellation initiated by Missy Project, registered participants will be notified and, where applicable, offered an alternative date or a full refund.
