Pricing: Why do I offer a sliding scale for all?
To address the reality of systemic inequalities of class in our culture. In my view, financial resources, including income, are not and should not be the only determining factor in whether someone can access coaching. Based on this idea, I offer my coaching services at multiple price points, based on the economic circumstances of the client, to make coaching accessible to folks who would otherwise be priced out of it.
I don’t receive any outside funding to supplement sliding scale discounts, so I’ve created pricing that takes into consideration what I can offer while simultaneously supporting myself. $125 is the flat rate I would charge for a single session if I didn’t offer a sliding scale. To the extent that folks who have the means pay-it-forward by choosing the rates reflected in Tier 1, I can offer more folks accessibility at Tier 3. Typically, there are a limited number of Tier 3 slots. I hope that will increase over time.
Please pay what you can honestly afford, so as not to limit access for those who truly need the gift of financial flexibility. Sliding scale only works when all participating are guided by the principles of honesty, respect for complexity, and accountability. I do not ask for income verification. I trust clients to be honest. Accountability, trust, honesty, and respect also happen to be essential values for the deeply transformative work we will do in coaching.
In discerning where one falls along this continuum and examining access, it can be useful to consider the difference between trade-off/sacrifice and hardship. If paying for coaching might require you to cut back on other discretionary spending in your life, but not impact your ability to pay for your basic daily needs, that qualifies as a trade-off, or a sacrifice. If, however, paying for coaching would prevent you from being able to provide for your basic daily needs, then you are dealing with hardship. Folks coming from a space of hardship typically qualify for Tier 3, whereas folks who are making a trade-off likely belong in Tier 2.
The graphic below, created by Alexis J. Cunningfolk (www.wortsandcunning.com) can also help you to locate where you fall on the sliding scale continuum. Tier 1 is represented by the full bottle on the left, Tier 2 the middle bottle, and Tier 3 the bottle on the right. If you have any questions, I’d be happy to speak with you about what price is right for you.
To sum it up:
Tier 1 (full bottle): I can afford to pay-it-forward.
Tier 2 (half-full bottle): I regularly afford to pay for my basic needs.
Tier 3 (nearly empty bottle): I struggle to consistently pay for my basic needs.
Refunds and Cancellations:
The fees you pay me when you elect to purchase my services are non-refundable. Coaching is deep transformational work, and results are not often immediate nor linear. Before making your purchase, please understand that you are committing to fully participating for the contracted length of time so we can get you as close as possible to the transformation you seek. The reason I choose not to give refunds is primarily to support you in avoiding the temptation to back out of your growth process, which can feel quite scratchy at times. That said, I understand that life can be unpredictably lifey, and unexpected things crop up. I therefore reserve the right to waive my own policy if I believe a refund is warranted.
If you cannot make a scheduled session, I require 24 hours’ notice. If you cancel less than 24 hours in advance of our meeting time:
I will retain 50% of the session fee and will either (a) apply the remaining 50% of your fee toward the rescheduling of the session or (b) if you decline to reschedule, I will refund the remaining 50%. If you no-show or cancel after the scheduled session time, I will retain 100% of the session fee.
With regard to cancellation, I again reserve the right to waive my own policies if I believe circumstances warrant an exception. I strive to strike a balance between fairness to you and to me. Please respect the value of my time.
