Need a second set of eyes?

We get it—no two coaching businesses are alike. Since we haven’t reviewed your specific program or business model, this isn’t legal advice. If you’d like us to walk through it with you, we offer:

• 60-minute legal sessions for $350 (incl. GST) where we answer questions and help you customise confidently; or

• Custom coaching agreements from $1450 (incl. GST), tailored to suit your exact business model.
