Foundermental is operated by Joel Rickard. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use our services.

Foundermental offers the following services:

• ◆1:1 Coaching, personalised mindset and performance coaching for entrepreneurs via the Foundermental OS programme.
• ◆Free Tools, publicly available tools including the Gratitude & Perspective Tool and the Entrepreneur Identity Audit quiz.
• ◆Community, a free and paid community hosted on Skool, providing access to tools, resources, and live coaching workshops.
• ◆Content, educational content on YouTube, the Foundermental Podcast, and other platforms.

The content, tools, coaching, and resources provided by Foundermental are for educational and personal development purposes only. They do not constitute professional psychological, medical, legal, or financial advice.

Coaching is not a substitute for therapy, counselling, or professional mental health support. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please seek appropriate professional help.

While we work hard to deliver genuine, lasting value, we cannot and do not guarantee specific outcomes from coaching, community participation, or use of any Foundermental tools or resources. Results depend entirely on individual circumstances, effort, and commitment.

Testimonials or examples of results shared on this site reflect individual experiences and are not a promise of what you will achieve.

Pricing for coaching programmes is discussed and agreed upon prior to commencement. All coaching fees are confirmed in writing before any payment is made.

Due to the nature of 1:1 coaching and the preparation involved, all payments are non-refundable once a coaching programme has commenced, unless otherwise agreed in writing. If you have concerns about a payment, please contact us directly at joel@foundermental.com.

Community membership fees (if applicable) are subject to any terms outlined at the point of sign-up within the Skool platform.
