Four short steps: pick a plan, family info, read and sign the agreement, set up membership.
Billy Cook ("Mentor") offers conversational mentorship sessions to help the Participant develop in areas of their choosing, which may include baseball and recruiting, school, faith, goal setting, and general life guidance. Sessions are supportive and conversational in nature.
This program is NOT therapy, counseling, or medical treatment. Billy is not a licensed therapist, psychologist, counselor, or medical professional. Sessions reflect his personal experience and opinion, not clinical advice. What has worked for him may not work for every participant. If a family needs professional mental health, medical, or academic support, they should seek a licensed provider. Billy is glad to help point them toward one if needed.
Sessions take place by video call at a scheduled time known to the parent in advance. Sessions are recorded, and recordings are made available to the parent on request. The Mentor will not initiate private contact with the Participant outside of scheduled sessions (no direct texting, DMs, or social media messaging with the minor). The parent may join or observe any session at any time. If the Participant discloses information suggesting risk of harm to themselves or others, the Mentor will pause the mentorship conversation, encourage the Participant to speak with a trusted adult, and promptly notify the parent and, where legally required, appropriate authorities.
Membership is billed monthly at the rate selected during sign up. It may be canceled at any time; access continues through the remainder of the period already paid for. Fees are for the Mentor's time and availability, not for any guaranteed outcome, such as athletic recruitment, scholarship offers, or performance results.
The Mentor will keep the content of sessions private and will not share details publicly or with third parties, except with the parent, as required by law, or where necessary to protect the Participant's safety as described above. Absent separate written consent, the Mentor will not use the Participant's name, image, or identifiable details in marketing or on social media.
Either party may end this agreement at any time with written notice. The Mentor reserves the right to discontinue sessions if the parent or Participant is unresponsive, or if continuing is not in the Participant's best interest, with a pro rated refund of unused fees where applicable.

Billy wasn't a can't miss prospect. He played four years of college baseball at Pepperdine, carrying a full course load the entire time: the same tension a lot of families are carrying right now. Baltimore drafted him in the 10th round in 2021, and it took years working through every level of the minor leagues before his first call up, with the Pittsburgh Pirates, in September 2024.
He's opening a limited number of one on one mentorship spots during his offseason, not because he's a licensed counselor or therapist, but because he's lived through exactly what these kids are living through right now, and nobody sat him down to explain it. This is that conversation.
Parents keep telling him the same thing: their kids are leaning on screens and AI tools, and running short on real, present role models.
Middle school through high school is a formative stretch for identity, work ethic, and decision making, especially for kids competing seriously in a sport. School counselors, camps, and generic mentorship programs are often impersonal, one size fits all, or not built for athletes at all.
This is a steady adult voice in a kid's week that isn't a screen: someone with current MLB credibility, having a real conversation, on a schedule a busy family can actually keep.
Not a curriculum. A relationship that flexes to whatever's actually going on that month, chosen fresh each session.
Recruiting timelines, exposure, roster reality, and the draft, from someone who's been through it recently.
Time management, study habits, grades under pressure, and staying eligible while the season eats the schedule.
Making faith personally yours, staying grounded through wins and losses, and talking honestly about doubt.
Real goals, broken into real steps, with someone actually checking in on them.
Slumps, pressure, comparison, burnout, and bouncing back after a mistake.
Sometimes it's none of the above. That's fine too, the call belongs to the kid.
A current MLB player having recurring video calls with someone else's kid is a real trust question. Here's how it's handled: stated plainly, not buried in fine print.
Parents can request the recording or join any call live, any time.
No private texting, DMs, or social messaging with a participant outside scheduled, logged sessions.
Every family reads and signs a Parent/Guardian Agreement before mentorship begins, not after.
Billy is not a licensed therapist, counselor, or medical professional, and says so upfront. Full disclaimer during sign up.

No. Billy is not a licensed therapist, psychologist, counselor, or medical professional. This is conversational mentorship based on his own experience, not clinical advice. If a family needs professional mental health, medical, or academic support, they'll be pointed toward a licensed provider.
Membership bills monthly. Cancel anytime and keep access through the rest of the period already paid for. Prefer a break over canceling entirely? Ask about pausing for a scheduling conflict instead. [ Placeholder: confirm before launch whether unused sessions in a month roll over or expire. ]
The program runs during Billy's MLB offseason, roughly November through February. Billing pauses automatically once the season starts, and families can re-enroll the following offseason.
A short family intake form, then reading and signing the Parent/Guardian Agreement, then setting up membership payment. First session gets scheduled directly with Billy after that. No long wait, no cold application queue.
