Looking for a small-business mentor, preferably with photography studio experience.

I'm launching a photography studio in San Francisco next November. I have saved the start-up funds myself, but I have never run a business before. I've questions about pricing, suppliers, simple bookkeeping, hiring and - frankly - how not to burn out.
I'm looking for a mentor with real small-business experience, ideally in a photography studio, willing to have a monthly call for the first six months. I'll bring a list of questions and my numbers.
If you have a few hours a month, and enjoy helping someone avoid the mistakes you made, I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you for reading my story.

You're not alone, Julia. Small businesses are the heart of San Francisco. Hope you're open again soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Augusta this morning.

Take care. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Epe.
rooting for you, Julia. Hope you get there. Sent it to 33 people at work.
Sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Munich!
You're not alone, Julia. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Rooting for you, Julia. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from São Paulo
Sending love. Small businesses are the heart of San Francisco. Hope you're open again soon.
Good luck, Julia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out
