1. The service
Hypocenter Initiative offers a private coaching engagement ("Hypocenter Private") consisting of approximately one one-hour call per week with the founder, Jack Johnson, plus direct written correspondence between calls, responded to in writing within a target window of seventy-two hours during the working week.
2. Nature of the engagement
The engagement is a coaching relationship. It is not therapy, psychotherapy, counseling, medical care, psychiatric care, legal advice, financial advice, tax advice, or investment advice, and it is not a substitute for any of them. Jack Johnson is not a licensed therapist, physician, attorney, accountant, or financial advisor. Any statement made in the course of the engagement is offered as a personal perspective and is not a professional recommendation of any regulated kind.
3. Fees, term, and cancellation
The fee for Hypocenter Private is fifteen hundred United States dollars ($1,500) per calendar month, invoiced privately in advance of each month. The engagement is month-to-month. Either party may end the engagement at any time by written notice; billing stops with the following month.
4. First-month refund
A member may request a full refund of the first month's fee within thirty days of the first invoice, without explanation, by writing one line to office@hypocenterinitiative.com. Refunds do not apply after the first thirty days.
5. Confidentiality
Nothing said inside the working relationship is shared outside it by the founder. The member's own use of what is discussed is at the member's discretion, subject to any independent duty of confidentiality the member has agreed to.
6. Communications
The founder replies personally to correspondence, in writing, within a target window of seventy-two hours during the working week. Response windows may be longer during travel, holidays, or personal emergencies; extended absences will be communicated in advance where possible.
7. Fit and acceptance
The practice is application-based. The founder reserves the right to accept or decline any applicant for any lawful reason. Acceptance is confirmed in writing and is not automatic upon submission of an application.
8. Personal responsibility
The member is solely responsible for the decisions and actions they take in their own life, whether or not those decisions and actions were discussed in the course of the engagement. The founder is not liable for the results of any decision the member makes.
9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the founder's liability arising out of the engagement is limited to the fees paid by the member in the three months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, United States. Any dispute arising under these terms will be resolved in the courts of Yavapai County, Arizona.
