Equity, Fees, and Support
“Our task is not to seek for love, but to find all the barriers within we have built against it.” ~ RumiEquity Statement
Alove.ca offerings embrace the principles of the Ontario Human Rights Code, with the intention of sharing healing, learning, joy, peace, and love with every human being regardless of ability, affair discovery date (newly betrayed or decades later), age, ancestry, citizenship, color, creed, education, ethnic origin, family status, financial means, gender identity/expression, language, pregnancy, place of origin, race, record of offenses, relationship status (married, common-law, dating, separated, healing alone, etc.), religion (or not), sexual orientation, or any other form of historic oppression. Contact me to arrange any accommodations or supports you may require.
Fees
All fees adjustable using the sliding scale below. Click links below for credit card, use Paypal, or contact me for e-transfer, barter, installments, or with questions.
Coaching packages for any area are $600 (5 hours) or $1000 (10 hours). Single sessions available by special request. More coaching details.
Speaking and professional learning fees are $5000/day (private) or $4000/day (public/non-profit) which include planning time. Rates may vary based on audience size, session length, and travel expenses. Contact me to get started.
Special events, workshops, or series fees vary, and are shown in flyers.
Support group participation is always free, although voluntary donations always help with ongoing costs.
Financial Support / Sliding Scale
Wealth inequity is a major contributor to suffering for all, but especially the underprivileged. The sliding scale below provides a way to bridge this gap in a compassionate way. I spend much time and energy doing volunteer work: running support groups, providing no-cost coaching, and posting free resources. My paid offerings support this pro bono work and enable this sliding scale. Financial means need not be a barrier to thriving.
This sliding scale includes discounted fees (columns 1-3), regular fees (column 4) and pay-it-forward fees (column 5) to support financial accessibility for others. Use this scale for any alove.ca fee as follows.
Circle the column that best describes you in each of the first five rows (if you circled more than one column, just choose the one with the most circles).
Choose a fee adjustment or donation amount from your column (coupon codes for Stripe payments only).
Apply the adjustment to the base fees above and just pay the adjusted amount.
