Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.
Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
-Howard Thurman
I am both honored and excited to support you on a Master The 8 Coaching Experience. Please read through the below information regarding what to know and next steps. If you have any questions or need support prior to beginning our work together, please reach out to
me via email Ronita@MasterThe8.com.
WHAT MATTERS
• The people I work with understand that their word is more powerful than any contract or document which is why Commitments and not Expectations are the foundation of this relationship.
Powerful Commitments create a powerful container for us to operate from.
Commitments require resilience NOT perfection.
When things get tough, we stay committed.
When things go wrong, we recommit.
Below are the Commitments that I have found create the most powerful relationships.
MY COMMITMENTS
(to you)
I Commit to Serving over Pleasing
• I am not here to be your friend. I am here to be much more than that. My commitment is to serving
you. I will do that by being honest, saying what I see, and not holding anything back.
• I will not be as concerned about hurting your feelings as I know that you are powerful enough to
navigate through what is true and not true for you.
I Commit to Getting it Wrong
• Never during our work together am I interested in being right, or being the smartest person in the
room.
• All I am interested in is exploring in depth what is coming up for you at every moment.
I Commit to Your Power
• I promise to see you and hold you as the powerful being I know you are no matter what.
YOUR COMMITMENTS
(to me)
I Commit to My Power
• I commit to bringing my full power to this coaching relationship by showing up with powerful questions,
curiosity, energy, and engagement.
• I understand that my coach is NOT going to do the work for me, or be my hero or savior.
• My coach is here to remind me of how powerful I am when I forget.
I Commit to Coachability
• I understand that the most powerful coaching happens when I am open to new possibilities, therefore
I am willing to get curious, explore and reach for things that at times I may believe are impossible.
I Commit to Integrity
• When I say I will do something, I do it. I do not expect my coach to hold me accountable as that is a
form of giving my power away. If I do not follow-through, I will own that, and clean it up. I never have
to say sorry to my coach.
• I understand that saying what I think my coach wants to hear will dilute the process and power of
our work together.
I Commit to Insights over Time
• I understand that the value of this Program is not about the time we spend together, but about the
insights I have and how I apply them to my life.
OUR SHARED COMMITMENTS
(to each other)
We Commit to Confidentiality
• This environment is intimate and sacred. We agree to only share in a way that honors that intimacy
and sacredness and agree to complete confidentiality upon request.
We Commit to Response-Ability
• We understand that there are always three responses to any invitation, request or challenge. We
can either say “Yes,” say “No” or ask to renegotiate.
We Commit to create Agreements over Expectations
• We create our coaching relationship around agreements.
• We will catch the expectations that we have, and if there is something we want to be different, we
will speak up and create an agreement around it.
This Agreement is entered into by and between iDezzine Corporation, and the Client/Coaching Program Participant who hereby acknowledges and agrees to abide by all policies and procedures as outlined in this agreement.
1. DESCRIPTION OF COACHING:
1.1. Coaching is a partnership (defined as an alliance, not a legal business partnership) between the Coach and the Client in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires the client to maximize personal and professional potential.
1.2. The client is solely responsible for creating and implementing his/her own physical, mental and emotional well-being, decisions, choices, actions and results arising out of, or resulting from the coaching relationship and his/her interactions with the Coach. As such, the Client agrees that the Coach is not and will not be liable or responsible for any actions or inaction, or for any direct or indirect result.
Client understands that coaching is not therapy and does not substitute for therapy if needed, and does not prevent, cure, or treat any mental disorder or medical disease. Additionally, Client acknowledges that coaching does not involve the diagnosis or treatment of mental disorders as defined by the American Psychiatric Association and that coaching is not to be used as a substitute for counseling,
psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, mental health care, substance abuse treatment, or other professional advice by legal, medical or other qualified professionals and that it is the Client’s exclusive responsibility to seek such independent professional guidance as needed.
COACHING & MENTORING AGREEMENT
If Client is currently under the care of a mental health professional, it is recommended that the Client promptly inform the mental health care provider of the nature and extent of the coaching relationship agreed upon by the Client and the Coach.
1.3. Client acknowledges that he/she may terminate or discontinue the coaching relationship at any time but understands there are no refunds of any kind.
1.4. Client acknowledges that coaching is a comprehensive process that may involve different areas of his/her life, including work, finances, health, relationships, education and recreation. The Client agrees that deciding how to handle these issues, incorporate coaching principles into those areas and implementing choices is exclusively the Client’s responsibility.
2. SERVICE & FEES
2.1. The parties agree to engage in a session by session virtual Master 8 Coaching Program, and through email and chat for the duration of our coaching relationship together. In most instances, Coach will be available to Client(s) by e-mail and phone in between scheduled meetings as needed, however, response times are not guaranteed and may vary.
2.2. This coaching agreement is valid as of date registration is submitted.
2.3. The fee is due in full at time of service, unless automated payment arrangements have been set up ahead of time.
2.4. 60-75 minutes will be blocked for each coaching session conducted by zoom. The Coach and Client(s) have the right to use less than the full time allotted should all parties agree to end early.
3. CONFIDENTIALITY & REPRESENTATIONS
3.1. The Coach-Client relationship is not considered a legally confidential relationship (like the medical and legal professions) and thus communications are not subject to the protection of any legally recognized privilege.
3.2. The Coach makes no guarantees, representations or warranties of any kind or nature, expressed or implied with respect to the coaching services negotiated, agreed upon and rendered. In no event shall the Coach be liable to the Client for any indirect, consequential or special damages. Notwithstanding any damages that the Client may incur, the Coach’s entire liability under this Agreement, and the Client’s exclusive remedy, shall be limited to the amount actually paid by the Client to the Coach under this Agreement for all coaching services rendered.
