Frequently Asked Questions
What do you charge for your 1:1 Coaching?
$50,000.00 an hour.
Just kidding.
I do not discuss fees until we meet and I have a better understanding of your needs, and you have a better understanding of the work and the value it would bring to your life. It would simply be inappropriate. However, no one has ever had sticker shock. It is truly about putting the focus where it is appropriate and in which sequence. If I answered the question without you understanding the process and value better, it would be irresponsible of me. And it would not matter if my rates were $30/hour or $5,000. It is still a number with no meaning until you understand the value it would bring to your life and/or business.
How I do work is we engage in partnership around your goals, desires, and outcomes for 3-6 months. In that time, you have virtually unlimited access to me. I can do this because I only engage with a limited number of clients at a time so I can fully serve them.
How does the process work?
First we have an initial chat on the phone for about 30 to 45 minutes to make sure there is good reason for us to work together —that there is a good initial fit— and making sure that I can help you achieve your outcomes with a high degree of certainty. If that is the case, then we schedule a complimentary exploratory session. In that session we go into greater detail about what you want to achieve or resolve. It is usually it is a pretty engaged and engaging process. And clients usually leave knowing themselves a lot more deeply.
I then tell you very directly which outcomes I have certainty you can, in fact, achieve through the process —and I am equally as direct about what is not my area of expertise. Next, I explain my approach and how specifically I will assist you in achieving your outcomes.
At that point, we review an agreement [which has a full explanation of fees] and choose to work together —or we choose not to.
Either way, at that point, a choice is made based on our sense of whether it is a good fit us both —or not.
Pretty straightforward.
As previously mentioned, I also have a limited number of spots available for "coaching" so I carefully interview my prospective clients. You will increase your footprint in the world as a result of our working together. I bear a strong responsibility to be certain that footprint is one that leaves a positive mark on the landscape. I take this very seriously.
Where or how do we meet? Do you work over the phone?
I do not work over the phone.
Generally, we meet in person or via Zoom Video, whichever will be most effective. We also use Facebook Messenger, text, email, and google drive for messaging, session notes, and document sharing.
Do you offer programs that are less than 3 to 6 months?
No, I do not. If you think about it, 12 to 24 hours is very little time--just a little more than half a day or one day--regardless of how it is spread out, to take you to a whole new level. 12 to 24 hours is far less than a weekend workshop —and we all know those don't assist you in integrating the change. This program does.
It also allows us to relax into the process, built one phase on the previous, and so on. My work is in stages with any client.
Are you a licensed therapist?
No. I am not a licensed California State mental health professional and do not provide psychotherapy, counseling, or any other mental health service that would require a license, nor do I hold myself out to provide such services. I provide consulting and educational services that often result in substantial learning, transformation, and the acceleration of your personal and professional evolution.
How is the path to sovereignty different from therapy?
Therapy is about diagnosis, classification, and often medicating. It is a problem and illness approach. The path to sovereignty is about resolving past events, educating your mind to right thinking, and then deepening your Self. It is a solution approach. An educational approach.
