Use of Cookies
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier.

Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser”s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.
IP Addresses
IP addresses are used by your computer every time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer. IP addresses are automatically collected by our web server as part of demographic and profile data known as “traffic data” so that data (such as the Web pages you request) can be sent to you.

Clare Josa makes no representations, warranties, or assurances as to the accuracy, currency or completeness of the content contain on this website or any sites linked to or from this site.
By using the information on this website and in Clare Josa’s free and paid programmes, you confirm that you are in a fit state to take part and that you take full responsibility for the effort you put in and the results you get.
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by English law and we both agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English court.
Guarantees and Refunds
If stated on the sign-up page, your programme purchased from this site comes with a 30-day guarantee (starting on the first day of the programme, if it is live, or from the day you sign up for a self-study course). Clare Josa guarantees that your training will help you towards that programme’s goals, IF you take the actions the training teaches.
It can’t get you results unless you actually do the course.
By signing up for a programme, either online or live, you are contracting Clare Josa to provide you with the training materials. In return, you are committing to using them.
As such, this is not a ‘brown banana’ guarantee – if you changed your mind or decided you were now too busy to eat a banana and it went brown, you wouldn’t take it back to the supermarket for a refund. The same goes for training.
If you receive a refund under the guarantee, you would lose any future or ‘lifetime’ access to the training, because you have no longer paid for it.
Consumers’ Right To Cancel
Under UK law, if you are purchasing from us as a consumer, rather than for the purposes of your trade, profession or business, you have the statutory right to a 14-day cancellation period.
If you cancel within that period, you are entitled to a full refund, minus a pro-rata amount for any elements of the product or programme that we have already provided to you or you have already consumed.
Missed Payments
If you have an instalment payment plan for a programme, by signing up and making the initial payment you are contracted to complete all of the payments agreed. If a payment fails, you will be notified by the payment processor and must arrange for immediate payment, to bring your account out of arrears. If you have any questions or need our help, you must contact Clare’s team (you will have her email address) as a matter of urgency.
Should payments fall into arrears, access to high-value bonuses, such as 1:1 time with Clare and group tutorial calls, will immediately be suspended until your account is brought back into good standing.
Should payments default for longer than 14 days, without you contacting Clare’s team to agree next steps, your access to the relevant training programme may be suspended, without notice, until payment has been made.
If two payments are late, we reserve the right to withdraw your payment plan option and the balance must be paid within seven calendar days.
Behavioural Contract
All of Clare’s group programmes come with a behavioural contract, as part of these terms. These are common sense things like:
- being kind and supportive of everyone
- keeping an open mind and positive attitude
- not doing anything that could harm others’ enjoyment of the course
- not doing anything that could undermine others’ trust in the course or the course leader / team
- being a positive member of the group, supporting others without drama or agenda
- and a non-disclosure agreement, to protect confidentiality
The contract rules are there to ensure that everyone gets the chance to have the best experience possible from the programme and doesn’t get dragged down by someone else’s negativity.
Should a client breach these agreed rules, they will receive one written warning. A second breach will cause them to be removed from all group elements of the programme, without notice, reverting to a self-study programme. No refund would be offered in such circumstances and any outstanding payment plan payments must still be made, in full.
Where a student’s behaviour risks undermining others’ enjoyment of the course, or their trust in the course leader / team, we reserve the right to remove that student from the programme completely, without notice, including access to any training materials, with no refund, and any outstanding payment plan payments must still be made, in full.
For certification programmes, students must have complied with this behavioural contract, in order to receive and retain their certification.
Lifetime Access
Where a course includes lifetime access to the training materials, that will be clearly stated.
In such cases, ‘lifetime’ means for as long as those materials exist. If a course is withdrawn for any reason, you will be given fair notice, using the email address with which you signed up (unless you unsubscribed, in which case we’re not allowed to contact you, under GDPR).
Please note that lifetime access would only cover the self-study portions of a programme. If you wish to join in with the live elements again at a future date – e.g. the forum, Facebook group or group calls – there is often the option to do so for a reduced fee.
Note: if you withdraw from a programme part way through a payment plan, you will still be required to complete the payment plan, unless we have materially breached the contract.
Working With Clare
If you are working with Clare on an individual or corporate basis, in addition to the above terms, the following terms apply:
Booking Clare To Speak Or Deliver On-Site Or Virtual Training
Intellectual Property Rights & Limits Of Use
All materials presented shall remain the sole property of Soultuitive Leadership Ltd or its licensors. The use of our trademarks, content and intellectual property is forbidden without the express written consent from Clare Josa.
You must not:
- Republish Clare’s material without prior written consent.
- Record, reproduce, duplicate, create derivative, copy, distribute, broadcast or otherwise exploit material from the event for any other purpose, without Clare’s written consent and paying the agreed fee for this.
- Use any content from this event, other than as agreed in writing with Clare.
Booking Clare To Speak Or Deliver Virtual Training
Payment Terms
The agreed speaker fee must be paid, in full, at least 30 days before the event or within 30 days of receipt of the invoice, whichever is sooner, in order to confirm Clare’s attendance and for the event to proceed.
For invoices over £5,000, the terms for this are 50% upon commissioning and 50% within 7 days of originally agreed event date.
Licensing Of Replay
If agreed, this contract includes the specified number of replay tickets, valid for 12 calendar months from the date of the event. The replay will be professionally recorded by Soultuitive Leadership Ltd, edited by Clare’s team and hosted in a secure area on her website, along with the additional resources agreed in briefing meetings, within one working day of the event.
Recording of the event for use internally by a client is an option, but this will attract a licensing fee and this must be agreed at the point of commissioning the event, subject to Clare’s payment terms, above.
Rescheduling Or Cancellation
If an event is cancelled, the following terms apply:
- More than three months ahead: an hourly rate of £295 + VAT for meetings attended and work already carried out
- 6 weeks-3 months ahead: 50% of the agreed event fee
- 6 weeks – 2 weeks ahead: 75%
- Under two weeks ahead: 100%
If the event is rescheduled when it is under 2 months ahead, then Clare is likely to have turned away other work already, and would reserve the right to charge an additional 50% rescheduling fee, plus any non-refundable costs. The rescheduled event must take place within six months of the original event, otherwise Clare’s speaker fee at that new time may apply. The original event’s fee must be paid in full before the rescheduled date is considered confirmed, and the rescheduling fee must be paid at least 30 days before the new date.
If a second rescheduling is requested, then the original event is deemed to have been cancelled, and our cancellation fees apply to the rescheduling fee. We reserve the right not to agree to a second rescheduling and instead for a new contract to be started, with Clare’s current fees applying.
Coronavirus
UK government advice will be followed regarding in-person events, and any event that can no longer be held in-person can be delivered online, instead. Clare has over a decade of experience in delivering highly engaging virtual keynotes to remote audiences.
Bespoke Corporate Work
Clare’s normal terms are 70% on commissioning and the balance to be paid 7 days after the agreed start date in the contract. For smaller contracts, such as speaking events and one-off workshops, the terms are 100% upon commissioning, in order to confirm the date in Clare’s diary.
Note: work on a project cannot commence until the initial instalment has been paid. This includes any in-house briefing meetings or course preparation.
If the contract timing slips due to the company’s actions, Clare Josa reserves the right to still be paid the balance on the originally agreed date. If it changes due to Clare’s availability, then a new date for paying the balance may be agreed.
Invoicing payment terms are normally 14 days from receipt and late charges may be applied, in line with current English law.
Public Courses
If a business sends an employee on one of Clare Josa’s public workshops, that course fee can be paid by invoice, but the place is not confirmed until the invoice has been paid. The place will be held for a maximum of 14 days. The delegate will not be able to attend the course if the invoice has not been paid.
Note: individual online training costing under £1,000 cannot be paid for by invoicing, due to the administration costs involved in obtaining approved supplier status.
1:1 Mentoring
This is normally a 3-month package, which must be paid in advance, before the first session.
Policy Changes
We reserve the right to amend these terms and conditions at any time with or without notice.
