Flexible and Streamlined Payment Options

I understand that every executive’s schedule and needs are unique. That’s why I offer versatile payment options to suit your individual preferences and ensure a seamless coaching experience.

Hybrid Payment Approach:

Secure your coaching session with a small deposit of $25.00 for a 30-minute session or $50.00 for a 1-hour session. This deposit represents your commitment to personal growth and secures your spot on my calendar. After our session, you will be billed for the remaining balance, allowing for the flexibility to accommodate sessions that may extend beyond the scheduled time. This approach ensures that you receive the full value of each session, with the ability to adjust for those profound moments when breakthroughs don’t adhere to the clock.

Pay in Full:

For those who prefer to handle payment upfront and minimize administrative tasks, I offer the option to pay in full when booking your session. This streamlined process frees you to focus entirely on your coaching journey without the need to manage payments post-session.

If a session extends beyond the scheduled time due to deeper work and discussion, additional fees may be incurred in 15-minute increments.

Both payment options are designed to respect your time and investment. Rest assured, should you need to reschedule or cancel, we have a straightforward Cancellation and Refund Policy in place. We value your commitment and strive to offer flexibility to accommodate the dynamic nature of executive schedules and responsibilities.
