Content Use Policy

Integrity and Agreements

Integrity: (n.) the quality or state of wholeness, congruence, alignment.

When most people hear the word “integrity,” they often think of it as “doing the right thing,” which carries moral or ethical implications. However, we define integrity based on its root word integer, meaning whole or complete—without moral judgment. At CLG, we operationalize integrity as energetic wholeness, where our actions, commitments, and presence are in full alignment. This wholeness leads to full aliveness, creating a foundation for deep, conscious leadership.

Living in integrity means honoring agreements and commitments that foster trust, clarity, and mutual benefit. By using our content, you are making an agreement with us. Before downloading any resources, you must review this policy and sign an agreement acknowledging your commitment to these terms.

Educational Use

We believe in the power of shared wisdom. That’s why our content is available for educational purposes to individuals, teams, and organizations seeking to deepen their conscious leadership practice. You are welcome to use our materials for:

• Personal growth and reflection.
• Internal team development and leadership conversations.
• Non-commercial workshops and learning experiences.

*Non-commercial use refers to using the materials for personal growth, internal team development, or educational purposes without charging fees or making a profit. This includes free workshops, team discussions, or personal reflection, but does not involve any direct financial gain. If you’re unsure whether your use qualifies, feel free to reach out for clarification.

We offer this content with an open heart and trust that it will serve you. There is no required payment for educational use, though if you feel moved to give back, contributions are always welcome. If you're unsure whether your intended use aligns, reach out—we love collaborating to find a win for all.

CLG Content for Profit

Our content is not meant to be a commercial asset. It may not be used in any way that generates profit. This means:

• You may not package our content into a product for sale, including courses, workbooks, templates, or paid membership programs.
• You may not use our content (handouts, videos, links, etc.) as a central offering as part of any paid services outside of 1:1 Coaching. This includes but is not limited to partner coaching, team trainings, any coaching or training programs beyond individual coaching, live or recorded workshops or trainings with more than one person.
  
  • Example 1: Coach A uses CLG handouts as part of a paid online course she is offering to the public that includes other frameworks and content she has developed. THIS IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER OUR CONTENT USE POLICY.
  • Example 2: Coach B uses CLG videos and handouts as part of a workshop with a group of 8 executives he's been already been coaching individually. It is a paid engagement with more than one person. THIS IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER OUR CONTENT USE POLICY.  
  • If CLG materials are the primary focus of the event (approx. 50% or more):
    • The offering must not be sold without prior written permission from CLG.
    • Attribution alone is not sufficient in these cases.
    • We ask that you engage us in a conversation before launching and work out a collaborative or licensing agreement, which may include profit-sharing or co-design.
  • If CLG materials are a supporting element (less than ~50%):
    
    • Attribution is required (“Created by The Conscious Leadership Group” or “Adapted from…“).
    • Co-branding is not permitted—CLG logos, icons, or implied affiliation must be avoided.
    • No further permission is needed if this remains a truly mixed-methods offering.
• You may not bundle our content into paid offerings, even if it is part of a larger program.
• You may not use our content (links, handouts, videos) to market or advertise your own coaching or consulting business. 
  
  • Example 3: Coach C creates a website around their coaching business and links to CLG handouts as a resource for current and future clients. THIS IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER OUR CONTENT USE POLICY.

Our invitation is to use these ideas conceptually and educationally, not as a means for financial gain. If you’re unsure whether your use aligns, connect with us—we're open to exploring partnership possibilities together where a percentage proceeds comes back to The Conscious Leadership Group.

In the spirit of conscious exchange, we also ask that professionals using our content contribute financially in alignment with the impact and revenue generated. If you're not sure what feels right, reach out—we’re happy to explore what a fair exchange looks like.
