What we collect

Only what you choose to send: your name, email, and anything you write in a form. Optional fields such as phone, city, and organization are up to you.

How it is used

To reply to you, schedule sessions you request, and, if you opt in, send occasional reflections and updates. We do not sell or rent your information.

Services we rely on

  • Google stores form submissions and hosts calendar and video calls.
  • Stripe processes payments. Card details go directly to Stripe and are never stored on this site.
  • Cal.com handles appointment booking.
  • Our email newsletter provider stores subscriber emails if you sign up.
  • Cloudflare hosts this site and may provide privacy-friendly visit statistics without cookies.

Your choices

Every email includes an unsubscribe link. To see, correct, or delete what we hold about you, email [email protected].

Terms of use

The writing, images, and materials on this site belong to Josh Newmaster unless noted otherwise. You are welcome to share links and short quotes with credit. Please ask before reproducing larger portions.

Content on this site is offered for reflection and education. It is not professional medical, psychological, financial, or legal advice.

Payments, cancellations, and refunds

Payments are processed securely by Stripe, and you receive a receipt by email. The cancellation and refund terms for each session, package, or event are shown before you book or pay. If anything goes wrong with a payment, email [email protected] and we will make it right.

Coaching and spiritual direction

Spiritual direction and coaching are supportive, reflective conversations. They are not therapy, counseling, or licensed mental health treatment, and they do not replace medical, psychological, or legal care. Josh is not a licensed therapist.

If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, US) or call 911.
