Terms of Service

These terms describe what you can expect from me, and what I ask of you, when you use joyinliving.com, join our gatherings, or work with me personally. My hope is that they read less like fine print and more like a shared understanding between friends.

By using this website or purchasing a service, you are agreeing to what follows.

Last updated: Aug 20, 2026

What I Offer

Joy In Living offers personal coaching and mentoring, Mindful Healing sessions, complimentary Women of Wisdom Gatherings, a private member community, written reflections, and gentle practices.

These services are offered as coaching, companionship, and education. They are not medical care, psychotherapy, diagnosis, or treatment, and they are not a substitute for care from your physician, therapist, or other licensed professional. Please continue working with your own healthcare providers, and never delay or disregard their guidance because of something shared here.

Scheduling and Cancellations

Our time together is set aside just for you, and I hold that time open in my calendar.

• Cancellations and rescheduling require at least 24 hours notice. Simply call, text, or email me and we will find a new time that works.
• Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours notice, or missed without notice, are considered used.
• If something unexpected happens in your life, please tell me. I would always rather hear from you than not.

Payment and Refunds

Payment for coaching and mentoring sessions is made securely online before we meet.

Because of the personal nature of coaching and mentoring, I do not offer refunds once services have been provided. There are two exceptions:

• If you have not yet received any service, you may cancel within 7 days of your purchase and receive a full refund.
• In the case of death or a physical impairment that leaves you unable to receive or use the service, a full refund will be provided.

If you find yourself in a difficult circumstance that does not fit neatly into the above, please reach out to me. I would rather have a conversation than have you carry a worry alone.

Women of Wisdom Gatherings

Our monthly Gatherings are offered freely, with no cost to attend. Registration is through Zoom, and gathering details are sent by email once you register.

Recordings are shared afterward with registered members who are subscribed to the Joy In Living email community. To honor the privacy of everyone in our circle, please do not share, forward, or republish recordings, and please treat what is shared within our circle as belonging to that circle.

Our Private Community

The Connecting Place is a private space for members of our Women of Wisdom circle. In joining, you agree to help keep it a place where every woman feels safe to speak honestly.

• Speak to one another with kindness, patience, and respect.
• What is shared within our circle stays within our circle.
• Share only what is yours to share, and honor the privacy of others.
• No advertising, solicitation, or promotion of outside businesses or services.
• No harassment, hostility, or content that would make this an unsafe place to be honest.

I reserve the right to remove content or membership when these expectations are not honored. This is not about control — it is about protecting the safety and trust that make this circle meaningful.

Content on This Website

The writing, reflections, practices, recordings, and images on this website are my own work and are offered for your personal use and encouragement.

You are warmly welcome to share a link to any page, or to quote a passage with attribution. Please do not copy, republish, sell, or distribute the content as your own, or use it for commercial purposes without asking me first. If you would like to share something more widely, simply ask — I am usually glad to say yes.

Your Account

If you create an account to join our community, you are responsible for keeping your password private and for what happens under your account. Please let me know promptly if you believe someone else has gained access to it.

Responsibility and Limitations

I share everything here in good faith and with genuine care. At the same time, I cannot guarantee particular outcomes from coaching, mentoring, or any practice offered here. Each person’s journey is uniquely their own, and your choices and results remain yours.

This website and its content are provided as they are. To the extent permitted by law, I am not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from the use of this website or its services.

Changes to These Terms

If these terms change in any meaningful way, I will update the date at the top of this page. Continuing to use the website or its services after a change means you accept the updated terms.
