Life Coaching Agreement & Contract

Hello!

I am so excited to have this opportunity to work together. I have positive expectations that our professional relationship will help you discover and develop the life YOU want to live. To partner together professionally, I want you to be familiar with the following agreement. You will get to know themselves in new ways. Working with your Coach is a healthy way for them to grow. Most clients hire a Coach to accomplish several specific goals. Coaching is all about being and expressing your real and best self. So don't be surprised if you discover new parts of yourself or if you find your goals adjusting to reflect who you really are and who you want to be. This discovery process is natural, so there is no need for you to put pressure on yourself to rush it, just realize it will likely happen. Accelerated personal growth is a benefit of being Coached.

Terms of Coaching: I invite you to think of coaching as a process.  Many people create change for themselves in a short time.  However, to refine and sustain the change takes several months.  Although not mandatory, I encourage you to commit to our coaching relationship to last at least 3 months.  

Confidentiality: The nature of the Coaching relationship involves sharing personal and confidential information. Unless permission is granted, all conversations, Coaching sessions, and written communications will remain confidential between us, except where prohibited by law. If you disclose that you are a threat to yourself or someone else, that information will be shared for your and/or the safety of others.

Fees: These rates are effective Jan. 1, 2023. One (60 min) session is $319. You can purchase 6 sessions and pay in advance for the discounted rate of $1,500. You can purchase 12 sessions and pay in advance for the discounted rate of $2,880. Sessions are 1 hour zoom sessions or call sessions. Payments will be taken at the beginning of each session, except for the package deal which requires full payment prior to the first session. Current or past clients can purchase a one off 90 minute session, known as a booster, for $319.

Small group coaching is opening soon. If you choose this option you will join a small group of up to 5 people (3 person minimum). Each small group zoom session happens once a week for 90 minutes for 6 consecutive weeks. Only $900 for all 6 weeks. That’s $150 per session. Those interested in making a longer investment in themselves can purchase a 12 week session pack for $1,680. That’s $140 per session.

The coaching fee is payable to Maria Milagros by check,  @MariaMilaVazquez via venmo, or I can take PayPal and credit card payments for an additional processing fee of $2.00 per transaction.

Additional Contact: I will call you at the specified time, unless we make other arrangements.  If you wish to connect with me in between sessions with a challenge, a success or an inquiry, please do so via email. I will make every attempt to respond to your email within 48 hours, with an email.  I'm happy to provide this extra level of service at no additional charge, within reason. I will ask that you respect this addition and not exceed 1 email per week, in between our coaching calls. Anything more than that will be considered topics of discussion for our next session. Email: supersparklyeverything@gmail.com

Changes: If you need to reschedule our appointment, please give me a minimum of 24 hours notice.  If you have an emergency or illness, you can reschedule with less than 24 hours notice.  If you do not show up for a scheduled call, for any reason, and provide no notice, we will not make up that time and you will be billed and required to pay for the session.  If I need to reschedule, I will give you at least 24 hours notice as well, barring an emergency or illness.  

Problems: If I ever say or do anything that upsets you or doesn't feel right, please bring it to my attention so that we can resolve it as soon as possible.  My objective is to have a coaching relationship that is fully open, honest, real, and trusting.  We should both realize that communication via telephone or email entails extra challenges since we cannot see body language, facial expressions, etc.  Therefore we should give each other plenty of grace, and promptly ask for clarification if there is a miscommunication or misunderstanding.
