This Digital Course & Program Participation Agreement (“Agreement”) applies to all digital courses, workshops, trainings, memberships, and program materials (“Course”) offered by Joie, LLC (“Provider”). By enrolling in or accessing the Course, the Participant (“Participant”) agrees to the terms below.
- Non-Clinical Nature of the Course. The Course is intended for educational, personal development, and spiritual guidance purposes only. It is not therapy, counseling, medical advice, or a substitute for licensed mental health care.

- Take full responsibility for their emotional wellbeing, participation, and interpretation of Course content.
- Engage respectfully with the Provider and other participants.
- Refrain from offering unsolicited advice or attempting to coach others.
- Avoid promoting or selling services or products to participants.
- Seek licensed support if navigating mental health concerns or crisis situations.
3. Privacy, Sharing and Confidentiality.
3.1. Not a confidential space. Course interactions, group calls, community forums, and chat features are not confidential environments and are not protected by HIPAA or therapist-client privilege.
3.2. Respect for others. Participant agrees not to screenshot, record, distribute, or share any content involving other participants.
3.3. What Participant shares is voluntary. Participant is responsible for the information they choose to disclose and should not share sensitive personal information.

6. Technology Requirements. Participant is responsible for maintaining the technical ability to access the Course (internet connection, devices, updated software). Provider is not responsible for technical issues on Participant’s end.
7. No Guarantees. Provider does not guarantee specific outcomes or results. Testimonials shared in the Course or on Provider’s website represent individual experiences only and do not guarantee similar outcomes.

11. Termination. Provider may remove Participant from the Course for violating this Agreement or community guidelines. Removal does not entitle Participant to a refund unless required by law.
