2. TERM AND SCHEDULE

Start Date: __________________________________

Sessions will be scheduled by mutual agreement, Monday-Friday. LaunchPath will make reasonable efforts to accommodate the Client’s scheduling preferences and requirements.
Our coaching program is structured to be followed on a consistent, weekly basis to ensure maximum progress, momentum, and accountability, leading to timely completion of your goals. However, we recognize that our clients have diverse educational, employment, family, and holiday schedules. We have built flexibility into the program delivery to accommodate these commitments. While the expectation is consistent weekly engagement, your coach will work with you to make reasonable adjustments to the schedule when necessary. This flexibility is designed to support, not delay, your long-term success.

3. FEES AND PAYMENT

Payment Methods: LaunchPath accepts a variety of payment methods.
Payments are due within 7 days of invoice. Late payments may result in suspension of services until the account is current.
Client agrees to pay the Total Program Fee, regardless of whether Client completes the full program. If at any point the Client elects to discontinue participation in the program or in the event of a payment default, the entire remaining outstanding balance of the Total Program Fee will become immediately due and payable. LaunchPath reserves the right to pursue collection of the full accelerated balance through legal means.

4. REFUND POLICY

LaunchPath’s Program Fee becomes non-refundable after completion of the first engagement module. If the Client wishes to terminate services up to the completion of the first engagement module and provides timely written notice of termination, LaunchPath will refund all monies paid to that point.

5. PROGRAM PAUSE

Program Pause: a client may request to pause their coaching program for a period not to exceed forty-five (45) days. Any such request must be submitted to and mutually agreed upon in writing by LaunchPath.
If a client pauses the program without the prior agreement of LaunchPath (cancels, or does not attend or schedule sessions), or if the client takes a pause that exceeds forty-five (45) days, the engagement agreement shall be deemed terminated by the client. Upon such termination, all remaining unpaid fees and costs under the terms of this agreement become immediately due and payable by Client/Payer to LaunchPath.
