Thank you for reading this text about my financial approach. A thorough understanding of it is essential for this approach to work. This page is specific for mediation and group facilitation. The general page is here.
I offer all I do without a fixed price, choosing mutual gift and radical trust. This does not mean that what I am offering is free.
I ask you to contribute with the highest amount you can offer, in recognition of the value received, without overstretching or resentment. I want to cover my sustainability and keep my heart open to this approach.
This model allows me to make training, mediation, coaching, etc., accessible to all, including those with less resources, while also recognising my work. I support a maternal gift economy inspired by Nonviolent Communication, where resources flow toward needs. I am choosing this approach to contribute to the kind of resource flow system that I desire to live in the world.
I wish to offer this to others as an experiment in co-responsibility and sharing.
Mediation and group facilitation
The indicative range for the average hourly fee I would like to receive is:
A) for individual preparatory sessions:
€200 or more per hour, with no upper limit, for those who wish to support me and people with limited resources
between €100 and €200 per hour for those who can comfortably cover the cost of their participation
between €50 and €100 per hour for those with limited access to financial resources.
B) for mediation sessions between two people (exceptionally up to 3–4):
over €300 per hour, with no upper limit, for those who wish to support me and people with fewer resources
between €150 and €300 per hour for those who can comfortably cover the cost of their participation
between €75 and €150 per hour for those with limited access to financial resources.
C) For sessions held exclusively in person (following preparatory meetings) with groups of 4–5 people or more:
Over €300. See specific page: monetary contribution for mediations and group facilitation.
per hour, with no upper limit, for those wishing to support me and those with fewer resources
between €160 and €300 per hour for those who can comfortably cover their own participation costs
between €80 and €160 per hour for those with limited access to financial resources.
PLEASE NOTE: in the case of groups and more complex projects, we will work out the details of the intervention – including the approach, duration and other aspects – together, on a bespoke basis, taking into account distance, travel times and costs, and any accommodation requirements. We will reach an agreement through dialogue, taking into account everyone’s needs and financial circumstances, whilst considering the nature of the context in which I am working. In particular, whilst my basic living costs remain the same, I am keen to support initiatives that resonate with my worldview – such as communities, ecovillages, parent-run schools and the non-profit sector – and I am sensitive to any financial constraints they may face.
Please come to me even if you can't afford it ;-)
While I value reciprocity and recognition, I remain flexible:
If even the minimum is impossible for you, I still want you to participate and that you offer what you can, even nothing, without compromising your essential needs.
If you are in any of these situations, or have doubts, discomfort or any question, I invite you to speak with me. I would joyfully explore more of what makes sense for you and me.
Thank you wholeheartedly for reading!
