The Executive Partnership Journey
I love this work. I love the moment a person who has carried everything alone finds out they do not have to, and I love being the one beside them when it happens. A threshold is crossed week by week, and I would be honored to cross it with you.
How the work is held
Each week we meet by video, at a time we set together. A month holds six hours, which is four sessions of ninety minutes. Life shifts, and the work shifts with it, so those hours can bend: a longer session in a week that asks for it, a shorter one in a week that does not. I stay flexible for the changes that inevitably arise from time to time. Ninety minutes is long enough to go past the report on your week and into what sits underneath it, and our weekly rhythm keeps the thread from fraying between meetings. When a month has a fifth week, that session is a gift, and the fee does not change.
Priority access
My calendar is shared with teaching, training, providing consultation to other providers, and the retreats I lead, so priority means something here. Executive Partnership Journey clients get first call on retreat dates before they open to others.
I do understand busy and complicated schedules, and I want this work to fit inside your life rather than add to the load. When a challenging week makes a session during the regular workday (10 to 6 Mountain) hard to hold, I will do my best to find you another time. I never work past 7 pm Mountain, and I can see you as early as 6 am Mountain. I can often accommodate a weekend session here and there.
The fee
The Partnership Journey is $3,500 a month, charged on the 1st of the month to the card you keep on file. It holds your place in my week and your priority access, in the easy weeks as well as the hard ones. We begin with a commitment of three months, because finding a pattern and loosening it takes dedicated time, something founders and entrepreneurs know well. After that, our agreement continues month to month until you decide we are complete, or we agree on a different arrangement. I do require 30-day notice should you feel you have come to completion, which allows me to coordinate with others on my waiting list. Additional sessions are billed at $500 an hour. Some clients find it very helpful to review a session in writing, a record to return to when the week gets loud and the details start to fade. If you would find this helpful, a recording and written summary of any session is an additional $150, which is charged once delivered.
If life moves
In spite of our schedules, I am well aware that sometimes the ground shifts beneath us. If you cancel or move a session with at least 48 hours’ notice, we will find another time within the month. If you cancel or move a session with less than 48 hours’ notice, that session is forfeited, as it is for every client I work with. Emergencies and unforeseen circumstances are the exception. When I can offer another time, I will, though I am not always able to accommodate on short notice. Unused time does not carry into the next month. If I have to miss a scheduled session, usually because of my own unforeseen circumstances, I make it up within the month, or the next month’s fee drops by that session’s share. When possible, I give you the days I am unavailable at the start of each month, so nothing catches you off guard.
Personal retreats
Personal retreats are shaped around what needs attending to: grief, letting go, burnout, reclaiming pleasure, or anything else that is alive in you. I spend weeks before a retreat contemplating and designing the experiences, rituals and rites of passage that will be meaningful for you. For me this is such a sweet process of care and attendance, and I find it incredibly rewarding. Due to my schedule, the time it takes to cultivate an attuned retreat, and potentially coordinating with other providers I may call in, the earliest I can generally schedule a retreat is about six to eight weeks out. A 24-hour day runs about $5,000.
A 50% deposit is required when we schedule. It is 100% refundable up to four weeks before the retreat. Between four and two weeks before the scheduled retreat, half of what you have paid is refundable, or the retreat can be transferred to a different date. Within two weeks, it is nonrefundable. In cases of unforeseen emergency, a late cancellation becomes a transfer to another date, less any fees I have already paid to other providers.
Begin the conversation
Patterns unravel. What held them in place comes loose, and the parts of you that have carried so much for so long get to set something down. What lies beyond them is a life with more room in it, and more of your authentic self at the table. Whether you come with a divorce at hand, a rift with a partner or someone you love, a company that no longer feels like yours, or a call you cannot name yet, I would love to hear what brings you. Let’s start a conversation, and we will find out together whether this is the right work for you.
