TERMS OF SERVICE

Effective Date: September 2025

Welcome!

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Sara Laird Weber Business Coaching services, website, and resources. By engaging with any of our offerings, you're agreeing to these terms. If you have questions, please reach out at hello@saraweber.org.

1. Nature of Services

I provide business coaching, educational resources, and professional development services specifically designed for therapy practice owners and mental health professionals.

What this is:

  • Business coaching and strategic guidance

  • Educational materials and resources

  • Professional development and training

  • Community support and mastermind groups

What this isn't:

  • Legal, financial, or tax advice

  • Clinical supervision for therapy clients

  • Mental health treatment or therapy

  • A guarantee of specific income or business results

2. Coaching Relationship

Our relationship is professional coaching focused on business development. While I bring my clinical background to this work, our engagement is not a therapeutic relationship. If personal mental health needs arise, I'll support you in finding appropriate clinical resources.

By working together, you acknowledge:

  • You're participating voluntarily

  • You're responsible for your own decisions and actions

  • Results depend on your implementation and various factors beyond my control

  • You'll be honest about your business situation and needs

3. Use of Resources & Intellectual Property

All content, materials, frameworks, and resources (including The Snail Method™ and Values-First Business Method™) are my intellectual property.

You MAY:

  • Use materials for your own practice development

  • Implement strategies and frameworks in your business

  • Share your experience with others

  • Print materials for personal use

You MAY NOT:

  • Resell, redistribute, or share materials

  • Copy content and present it as your own

  • Share login credentials or group access

  • Record sessions without written permission

  • Use materials to create competing products

4. Payment & Refund Policies

Payment Terms:

  • All prices are in USD

  • Payment is due upon registration unless a payment plan is arranged

  • Payment plans must be completed as agreed

  • Failed payments may result in suspended access

Refund Policy:

  • Digital Resources: No refunds once accessed due to immediate delivery

  • Coaching Sessions: 48-hour cancellation policy; no refunds for no-shows

  • Group Programs/Masterminds: See specific program terms

  • In case of emergency: Contact me directly; we'll work something out with compassion

5. Client Responsibilities

You agree to:

  • Provide accurate information

  • Maintain confidentiality of other participants in group settings

  • Engage respectfully with all community members

  • Not use our spaces for solicitation without permission

  • Honor the intellectual property of others

  • Show up ready to grow (at your own pace!)

6. Confidentiality

I commit to:

  • Keeping your business information confidential

  • Only sharing anonymized examples with permission

  • Maintaining professional boundaries

  • Not sharing your information with third parties (except as legally required)

Exception: If you share information about harm to yourself or others, or illegal activities, I may need to break confidentiality.

7. Group Program Guidelines

For masterminds, group coaching, and community spaces:

  • What's shared in the group stays in the group

  • Support without fixing or unsolicited advice

  • Celebrate wins without comparison

  • No DMing members for business solicitation without consent

  • Respect diverse perspectives and experiences

8. Technology & Access

  • You're responsible for your own technology and internet access

  • Materials are accessible for the period specified in each program

  • I use various platforms (Zoom, MemberVault, etc.) - you agree to their terms too

  • Technical issues on your end don't warrant refunds

9. Limitation of Liability

While I pour my heart and expertise into this work, I cannot guarantee specific outcomes. Success depends on numerous factors including your implementation, market conditions, and individual circumstances.

My total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for the specific service or resource. I'm not liable for lost profits, opportunities, or other consequential damages.

10. Disclaimers

Results Disclaimer: Examples and testimonials represent individual experiences, not typical results. Your success depends on your background, effort, and market factors.

Income Disclaimer: Any income examples are illustrations of what's possible, not guarantees. Most businesses require significant time and effort to become profitable.

Professional Advice: Always consult appropriate professionals (lawyers, accountants, etc.) for specific legal, financial, or tax advice.

11. Termination

Either of us may end our coaching relationship at any time. If you violate these terms or engage in harmful behavior, I reserve the right to terminate access immediately. Fees paid are non-refundable except as specifically stated.

12. Communication

I primarily communicate via email. By working with me, you consent to receive:

  • Program-related emails

  • Occasional updates about new resources

  • Community newsletters (you can opt-out anytime)

13. Dispute Resolution

If concerns arise, let's talk first. Email me at hello@saraweber.org . Most issues resolve with honest conversation. If needed, we'll use mediation in Austin, Texas before any legal proceedings.

14. Legal Stuff

These Terms are governed by Texas law. If any provision is found invalid, the rest remain in effect. This is our entire agreement regarding services. Changes to terms will be communicated via email.

15. Contact Information
