Coaching is delivered virtually or in-person as specified in the selected program.
2. Nature of Coaching
Coaching is a professional relationship focused on the Client’s personal, health, and performance goals. Coaching is not therapy, counseling, medical advice, or diagnosis. The Coach does not treat, prescribe, or diagnose medical conditions, including hormone therapy or any aspect of a Client’s transition-related care. Clients with medical concerns, including those related to hormone replacement therapy or surgical care, are encouraged to consult a licensed healthcare provider.
3. Client Responsibilities
The Client agrees to attend scheduled sessions, complete agreed-upon actions between sessions, and communicate openly and honestly with their Coach, including disclosing relevant health information such as hormone therapy status or recent/upcoming surgical procedures that may affect programming. The Client understands that results depend on their own effort, commitment, and consistency. The Coach cannot guarantee specific outcomes.

All information shared within the coaching relationship is confidential, including but not limited to health information, transition status, and personal history. The Coach will not disclose Client information to third parties without written consent, except where required by law.
5. Payment Terms
Payment is due prior to program commencement unless a payment plan has been agreed upon in writing. Failure to maintain payment may result in suspension of services.
6. Cancellation and Rescheduling
Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours notice may be charged at 50% of the session rate. No-shows without notice are charged at the full session rate. Sessions cancelled with 48 or more hours notice may be rescheduled at no charge.
