How it works

Our coaching model is made up by four quarterly themes

Each quarter, we’ll spend 12 weeks focused on subject matter related to that quarter’s theme with two live Zoom sessions per week.

You can start at the beginning of any quarter – content does not need to be consumed sequentially.

Value Add: At the end of each quarter, each participant will receive a 1:1 consultative session.

All sessions are led by Polaris Co-Founder, Perrin DesPortes.

Participants will be billed $2,500 monthly and can cancel at the end of a quarter, or register for the full year and save 20%.
