Ten Years with HIV

“Ten Years With HIV is the must-read feature in this issue. When James became HIV-positive, he went into hiding and slowly and painfully broke down. Shame, fear and HIV stigma drove him to bankruptcy. In this story, he documents his descent and the moment that put his life back on track.” DNA Magazine June 2024 Pride Issue #293

I couldn’t be prouder this Pride Month to be able to tell my story of living with HIV with DNA magazine 🌈💪

“Ten Years With HIV is the must-read feature in this issue. When James became HIV-positive, he went into hiding and slowly and painfully broke down. Shame, fear and HIV stigma drove him to bankruptcy. In this story, he documents his descent and the moment that put his life back on track.”

It’s also a thank you to @aidslifecycle which has been a big part of my healing and recovery journey. My team, the @teamfunkymonkeyalc, and thousands of others are currently riding or volunteering roadies across California to raise money for AIDS and HIV awareness, prevention, support and treatment. I wish I could be there again this year but am working in London. The ride finishes in Los Angeles on Saturday and has already raised more than $10m USD this year - it’s not too late for you to support @aidslifecycle and push that number higher 😀

The full article is now out in print in Australia.

I hope 🤞my sharing helps someone to heal ❤️‍🩹 too 🙏🦄

Foundations Program – Our Promise

The Foundations Program comes with a clear promise.

If, after completing Foundations, you:

  • do not get something positive from the experience and

  • do not make at least one agreed change identified in your initial 30-minute onboarding call

then you can choose one of two options:

  1. A full refund, minus the cost of the Strengths Profile assessment, or

  2. Continue working with me at no additional cost until you achieve a meaningful breakthrough.

This promise exists because Foundations is designed to create clarity, momentum, and real change — not just conversation.

Coaching Memberships – Flexibility, Not Guarantees

On-going coaching memberships do not come with a performance guarantee.

Instead, they are designed to be low-risk and flexible:

  • You can cancel at any time

  • There are no penalties or lock-ins

You stay because the coaching is useful — not because you’re tied to a contract.

12-Month Upfront Memberships – Pro-Rata Refunds

If you choose to pay for 12 months upfront, you’re entitled to request a pro-rata refund at any time if you decide the experience is not positive for you.

In this case:

  • The number of coaching sessions already attended will be deducted from the original amount paid

  • The remaining balance will be refunded accordingly

Important Notes

  • Coaching is not a done-for-you service. Results depend on your willingness to engage, reflect, and take action.

  • If at any point it becomes clear that the agreed effort and participation are not there, I’ll raise this directly and honestly.

  • If alignment can’t be restored, a refund of the unused portion of the coaching may be issued at the standard coaching rate.

Exclusions

Refunds and guarantees do not apply to the Resume & Career Upgrade Package or the Seven Days of Strengths self-guided program, due to the nature of the work and time already invested.
