Common Questions

What exactly will I get each month?

That depends on the level of membership you choose.

For Plus membership, Each month, you'll receive:

a short video masterclass introducing a core concept from the Dynamic Intelligence Development System (DIDS)
a practical worksheet to help you spot how that concept plays out in your own thinking
and a structured “mental flex” exercise to strengthen cognitive adaptability.

You’ll also get:

a monthly journal prompt pack to deepen your reflection
a “Deep Dive Tracker” to monitor real-world thinking shifts
and access to an asynchronous “Ask Me Anything” channel where you can submit questions and receive tailored insights.

All this is rounded off with a live group coaching call for integration and support.

How much time will it take each week?

Around 30–45 minutes per week. It’s designed to fit into a busy schedule while still delivering deep, lasting impact.

I’m not a coach or leader, will this still help me?

Yes. The tools are designed for anyone who wants to think more clearly, respond more wisely, and reduce stress or stuckness in everyday life, not just professionals.

What makes this different from other personal growth memberships?

This isn’t about generic advice. It’s based on the DIDS™ framework, which helps you understand how your thinking is constructed, and how to consciously upgrade it, using insights from cognitive science and vertical development.

What if I join and it’s not right for me?

No problem. You can cancel anytime, and there’s a no-questions-asked 14-day satisfaction guarantee to make it risk-free to try.
