CenterJoyPWR®:  Strategies for Healing Racial Battle Fatigue is a six-week self-paced online group coaching program for professionals of color who want to take steps toward healing their racial battle fatigue and centering joy in their personal and professional lives.   “Group Coaching” is defined as partnering between Coach and Participants in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires Participants to maximize their personal and professional potential in a group setting. This program consists of lifetime access to online modules, which Participant may revisit at anytime. The program includes a live virtual component in which Participants may join monthly meditation and circle discussion sessions to be in a group setting; these sessions are optional and are not mandatory.

As such, Participant agrees that the Coach is not and will not be liable for any actions or inaction, or for any direct or indirect result of any services provided during the program. Participant understands that the group coaching program is not therapy and is not a substitute for therapy  if needed, and does not prevent, cure, or treat any mental disorder or medical disease. 

2. Participant understands that this program is not to be used as a substitute for professional advice by legal, mental, medical, or other qualified professionals and will seek independent professional guidance for such matters if necessary.
