§ 01 — Discovery Call N° 01

Book Your Free Discovery Call.

Thirty quiet minutes with a senior guide. No pitch deck, no pressure — just a real conversation about where you are, where you'd like to be, and whether the 12-week journey is the right next step. Bring a single question and a half-hour of your week.

Pre-call questionnaire takes about 4 minutes · Calendly slots released weekly · Lisbon HQ, replies within one business day

§ 02 — The Thirty Minutes

What happens in the 30 minutes.

The call has a shape, not a script. Four movements, gently timed, so the conversation stays useful and finishes on the half-hour.

  1. i.

    Listen

    Twelve minutes. We start with you — what's stirring, what's stuck, the question you brought. No diagnostic form, no questionnaire readback.

  2. ii.

    Map

    Eight minutes. Together we sketch the territory between where you are and where you'd like to be — naming the obstacles, the resources, the rough distance.

  3. iii.

    Match

    Five minutes. We look at your map against the journey's shape and tell you honestly whether the program fits — and which guide, from our 68, would suit you best.

  4. iv.

    Recommend

    Five minutes. A clear recommendation: apply now, wait a cohort, or look elsewhere. We will say so plainly. You leave with a written summary by email.

§ 04 — Self-Identification

Is this thirty minutes for you?

A short honesty check before either of us invests half an hour. Read the pairs below — if the left column resonates more than the right, you're likely in the right place.

This is for

You're at a real inflection point.

Career, creative direction, or a major life chapter — you've stopped drifting and have a specific question you can't answer alone. You want a senior thinking partner, not a content library.

  • ≤ 40 years old, with 3+ years of professional or creative work behind you
  • You can name the goal, even if you can't yet name the path
  • You have 4–6 hours a week to give the journey, and the budget for a paid program
This isn't for

You're browsing, researching, or not yet ready.

If you're still gathering information, comparing twelve platforms, or hoping a call will resolve a question you haven't actually sat with yet — please use the Method page instead. We can meet when you arrive.

  • You're in acute distress or seeking licensed therapy, medical, or financial advice
  • You want a quick purchase — the journey is a 12-week commitment
  • You're under 18 or applying on someone else's behalf
You'll need

A quiet room and a single question.

Find a place where you can be uninterrupted for thirty minutes. Bring one question — the one that won't leave you alone. Your guide will do the rest of the listening.

  • A device with a working camera and microphone, in a private space
  • A notebook, if you like to write — most members do
  • Ten minutes after the call to let the conversation settle
You can skip

A polished story and a rehearsed pitch.

The call is an unstructured conversation, not an interview. You don't need a CV, a five-year plan, or a polished version of the question. Rough and honest beats smooth and prepared.

  • No portfolio, no résumé, no formal application
  • No fee, no commitment to join the program afterward
  • No follow-up sales sequence — only a written summary, if you want one
§ 05 — The Invitation

When you're ready, take the thirty minutes.

The discovery call is free, the questionnaire takes four, and the conversations are kept between you and a senior guide. If it's not for you, we'll say so. If it is, you'll know by minute twelve.

  • · 30 minutes, not 60. Calendar-block ready.
  • · Covered by our 90-day money-back guarantee the moment you join.
  • · Replies from the Lisbon team within one business day.
§ 06 — Last Questions

The half-second before you decide.

Short, honest answers — not a sales page disguised as a help center.

i. How much does the program cost, and is the call really free?

The discovery call is free, always, with no obligation to join. The 12-week journey is a paid program with pricing that varies by cohort and guide; full details live on the Pricing page. Every paid journey is covered by our 90-day money-back guarantee — the most generous refund policy in the guided-coaching category.

ii. How long does the call really take, and what if I need to reschedule?

Thirty minutes, with a five-minute buffer on either side in case the conversation runs a little longer. Rescheduling is a single click in the Calendly confirmation email — no email tag, no awkward exit call. We release new slots weekly, so rescheduling typically takes less than a day.

iii. Who actually reads the pre-call questionnaire?

Only the senior guide who will sit with you on the call. The questionnaire has four short fields — what you'd like to be different in ninety days, what you've already tried, what a good outcome looks like, and anything you'd like the guide to know in advance. We do not sell, share, or use it for marketing; it lives in our member system until you request deletion.

iv. What happens after the call if we both say yes?

Within twenty-four hours, you'll receive a written summary of the conversation, a short note from your matched guide, and an invitation to the next cohort's onboarding — typically a fortnight before the journey begins. If either of us says no, that's the end of it: a clean close, no follow-up sequence, no “just checking in” emails. We'd rather keep the door open for the day you do come back.
