Chapter 9 · the larger path

For when you already know it has to be you.

This is the one only I do. Not another person who will listen — somebody in the fire with you, running the campaign at your side. Together we find the parts still loyal to the old rules and turn the saboteurs into allies.

You apply rather than check out, and this costs more than anything else on the site. Both facts belong here rather than three emails from now.

Who it is for

Chapter 9 draws the line, and it is narrower than “anyone who wants support”. You have a Founder move — a campaign, an organization, a repair that has your name on it — and you already know it has to be you. If you are still deciding whether it has to be you, the deck answers that question for the price of a deck.

Who it is not for

Wanting the method itself, to run these six Faces for other people rather than for what you are building, is a different path with a different page. Nothing is for sale on it yet, and it says so. That one is succession.

What is included

  • 1:1 with me, for the length of the engagement
  • The deck and digital book access, if you do not already have them
  • The deprogramming, done with a partner rather than alone

What it costs

No list price, because the shape varies with what you are building and how long it takes. A number comes back in my first reply, before you have spent anything except the message. If it is out of reach, say the figure you do have and I will tell you honestly whether it fits, rather than negotiating you upward.

Before you write

None of it is required. You can run the rest alone, with this book and whatever your own Forest teaches you, and people do, and it takes longer.
Mastering the Game of Allyship, closing page

I am saying so plainly because you just spent a whole book learning to spot that move when somebody else makes it. The deck is the cheaper path and the one the book tells you to take first. It begins the moment you open the box.

Apply

One address, answered by me. Tell me what you are building, what has already stalled on it, and what you have tried. Three paragraphs beats three pages. A reply from this address is always a person.
