Not sure anything can be done? 30 minutes could change everything.
This is your chance to describe a recurring experience you strongly dislike, in as much detail as fits comfortably within 20 minutes. I might ask clarifying questions, but you are under no obligation to respond directly to them.
After 20 minutes, I'll be quiet for a minute and invite you to do the same, so you have some privacy and space to get a clear sense within yourself as to whether you want to end the call there, ask to be referred out, or hear my sense of what's possible for you.
Curiosity does not obligate follow-through.
If you are curious, we'd take the 8-9 minutes we have left to look at what kind of results I think you'd get from working with me, and what part of them I can guarantee on the short term.
No hard sales.
No obligation to follow through on any ideas we generate.
Really.
Really, really.
This first free appointment is just to let you sleep on the yes/no decision as to whether I'm someone
you'd seriously consider hiring anytime soon.
The follow-up appointment is also free, and sometimes includes a short taste-test of actually working together. First, we iron out other imporatant details to your satisfaction. This includes outlining a schedule; even if I proposed an "overnight," rapid way to transcend an issue
entirely, you may prefer a more bespoke trajectory, so that's what we'd set up before beginning in earnest.
I'm happily surprised to hear often that the first free call is a turning point (even for guys who never ended up hiring me) because it's so impactful just to get the chance to speak your mind to someone who is unfazed by despair, and who has a thorough understanding of vast darkness, and pity-free, authentic compassion for the experience.
I've seen hundreds of people unfurl from a proverbial (or literal) fetal position with the right support.
I'm ecstatic at the idea of being that support to you.
