Funding & Payment Options
External Funding
Employer Sponsorship
Ask whether your employer could provide a professional development budget. Even if yours doesn't explicitly mention it, it's worth asking about — these conversations benefit not just you but peers, as it signals interest in professional development support and could influence decisions to provide it.
Grant Funding
If you're working on high-impact or EA-aligned projects, funding may be available for coaching via: EA Funds, Open Philanthropy, Manifund, and others.
Payment Plans
If you’re paying for coaching yourself and want to spread out the payment, you have the option at checkout to use Klarna (available in 26 countries), which enables:
Pay in 30 days
Split into 3 interest-free monthly payments
If Klarna is not available in your country and you’d like to split your payment into 3 monthly payments, please let us know and we can set this up.
Is it really about money?
Sometimes what feels like a money block is actually about clarity, confidence, or permission.
Are you clear on why you want coaching and what you’d hope to get from it?
Do you believe you’re worth investing in?
Is fear of failure or uncertainty making it harder to decide?
You’re welcome to discuss this in our initial consultation call.
Alternatives
If you remain unable to invest in 1-1 coaching right now, here are some potential alternative options:
Keep in touch: We can always revisit working together in the future.
Explore other coaches: Check out some other coaches here.
Self-guided resources: Set aside regular time for self-development using free online tools, YouTube, or even AI assistants. Having an accountability buddy can also be surprisingly effective.
Whether or not you choose to proceed right now, we hope this information helps you explore your options and find the support you need!
