Applications Now Open! RAISING CLARITY’s Private Yearlong Coaching Group

16 Jun Applications Now Open! RAISING CLARITY’s Private Yearlong Coaching Group

 

I offer a private, yearlong coaching group.

 

In this group, for a very reasonable price, I coach, cheerlead, guide, and goad a maximum of five people to achieve the goal they have identified—starting in September, continuing all the way through the following August.

 

I open this group to new applicants once a year…

 

Now is the time to apply!

 

As of today, June 16, 2026, the application period to join my Private Yearlong Coaching Group is open.

 

It closes August 16, 2026.

 

The Group is limited to five members so you get significant personal attention during our monthly sessions with the synergy, camaraderie, and price break of being in a group. 

 

Everyone who has a goal they truly want to achieve is welcome to apply! The application form is at the bottom of this post.

 

But perhaps you’d like more information?

 

Read on.

And know that I offer a free exploratory meeting to explore whether this group is right for you up to one week before the application period closes. I sincerely invite you to meet with me, free, at any point through August 9. To set up our meeting, email me: bethraps@raisingclarity.com or use this contact form.

 

You can apply first (using the form at the bottom of this post) and then meet with me.

 

You can meet with me and then apply.

 

You can meet with me and decide not to apply!

 

It’s entirely up to you. Just know that:

 

If you have a goal that’s important to you to achieve,

I suggest you consider this Group.

Keep reading for why.

 

Perhaps you’d like a testimonial?

Here are two:

 

This group has truly helped me stay focused this year, ensuring that I get all of the other stuff done and out of my way in a timely fashion in order to be where I am now—working on this project every day, bit by bit, as opposed to being up against a deadline and being utterly stressed, throwing it together. I am truly convinced that I can and will put something together that will be akin to a masterpiece for myself, something I will feel truly proud of and will make my mark on the field. I do thank the accountability of belonging to this group and needing to report monthly on progress for enabling me to be where I am today.

Before starting your coaching group, I was feeling lost and disconnected from my life purpose. I had quit graduate school and work because of family needs. I didn’t know what was next for me.

During the year I was in your group, and the year since, I have focused my attention on my career and available resources. In the first few months of the group, I felt ideas coming at me in a chaotic manner. But as we worked together and I continued to use the skills I gained I was able to home in on the things I could and wanted to do.

I feel so grounded and guided. I feel confident in my path. My husband is fully on board and we’re working together to make these goals happen. I know my talents more intimately and am seeing big changes come my way.

 I am starting a full-time job with an organization that is only two years old in my state, so I hope to grow with them if it’s a good fit for me.

I will start my graduate classes soon to complete my Master of Public Health degree.

And finally [my partner] and I have a long-term plan of developing an ecovillage on property that backs up to one of our current houses. It will be fleshed out over the next 5-10 years. My kids will live on the other property we own as long as that remains their wish. [We] will join them in retirement.

I feel so grateful for the lessons I learned in your coaching group. I’m so happy to see my intentions come to life.

This Group’s Purpose:

Your “Worthy Goal”

 

The purpose of this Group is to help you achieve a goal that’s near and dear to your heart. It can be personal or professional. It can be about having more money or more control over your life. It can be about how you want to feel and live in this world. It can be a project to change the world.

 

A worthy goal is a goal that changes you as you achieve it.

In ways you want to be changed!

 

An Example

Your goal for our coaching year might be more money for something important to you. (Read on for Another Example if this doesn’t apply to you. Everyone’s goal is different!)

 

Wanting more money is an external goal. That’s fine! You can achieve that in this Group.

 

But the goal of simply wanting more money is not a worthy goal—yet.

 

That’s because you’d already have your goal except for some changes within yourself you need to make to achieve it.

 

In other words, achieving our goal doesn’t just depend on the outside world—it depends on us.

 

A worthy goal includes the internal changes you need to make within yourself to achieve your external goal.

 

So, in this example, your internal goal might include learning to get out of your own way when it comes to money. Thus:

 

Learning to get out of your own way when it comes to money +

Wanting more money for something important to you

= A worthy goal

 

Our circumstances change “magically” as we change:

 

Your circumstances +

Your work within yourself

= Achieving your external goal.

 

Another Example

Your goal is to have more time to spend on what the world finds unimportant but you find essential—like time for yourself; or time with the people you love; or time for creative or spiritual pursuits.

 

You already know what you want to do with this time. But you never seem to find it.

 

This is a worthy goal if you’re willing to look at how you’ve been getting in your own way of having more time. (And yes, you really can have more time in your life! I’m amazing at sculpting time and love sharing this mastery with those I coach.)

 

 

If you’re ready to apply, scroll down to the bottom of this page and respond to the questions you’ll find there.

 

Willingness

 

I am laser-focused on your goal all year long.

 

It is my sacred commitment to ensure you achieve it—including but not limited to these specific actions I take:

 

• • Each week, I coach you in writing toward your goal in your personal online journal, offering utterly unique, to the point, reflection questions, direction, information, and suggestions.

  • Each month, I coach you about your goal in our monthly Group sessions which are held via Zoom at a time that works for everyone in the Group. (Our meeting time is set once everyone has applied and been accepted so that our meeting time works for all members.)

  • As a long-time, expert fundraiser and fundraising trainer, I advise you in funding and financing your goal.

  • I receive intuitive insights and share these with you. I often create guided meditations, exercises, and practices just for you.

  • I offer you discounted 1:1 coaching with me to address anything you don’t want to talk about in Group sessions.

  • You will find I even text you about your goal sometimes!

 

So, I ask that you, likewise,

hold focus on your goal all year long,

realizing that…

at first, you might not know how.

 

As you know from the testimonials you read above, people achieve their goals in my Private Yearlong Coaching Group.

 

One way they do this is by learning to focus.

 

There’s nothing intrinsically hard about learning to focus with the right support.

 

And I offer the right support.

 

This is part of what you receive in this Group: I model and teach you how to hold focus.

How to create disciplines you love.

How to get things done, even if you’ve had a hard time in the past.

How to allocate and sculpt your time and money budgets.

How to heal your relationship with money and time.

 

These are areas in which I excel; for references and examples, please contact me.

 

Notice: your goal is not the only thing you receive in this Group.

You receive me.

 

My smarts, honesty, and compassionate directness. My clear vision about who you are—the grandness of who you are.

 

My deep experience of decades coaching and living a useful, spiritual, passionate life. My wisdom and humor.

 

I hold space like no one you have ever met. I will stand by you and keep standing by you. You receive my consistency and persistence. I am stubborn on behalf of your success.

 

I will remind and pester you and I will also nourish, tease, tickle, and gift you.

 

Ultimately, you won’t need me anymore.

 

Although you might enjoy continuing to work with me, you’ll keep what I teach you forever.

 

Your Commitments

 

Here are the commitments I ask of you in order to join this Group:

 

• • Discerning and describing your worthy goal in the Application below and if needed, refining it in email conversation with me or in a free meeting with me, or both.

  • Being willing to learn from and with me throughout the year how to hold focus on your worthy goal.

  • Progressing at your own pace toward your worthy goal throughout the year, with my support, guidance, teaching, and nurturing.

  • Posting regular updates about your progress, triumphs, and struggles in your journal I create for you—and where I respond by coaching you in writing.

  • Participating in monthly Group meetings. Meetings are recorded and posted to a private YouTube playlist for members only, in case you miss a session or if you want a replay, as many do.

  • Payment, either monthly or all at once. (See next section.)

 

Payment

The price for my supporting you richly in all the ways described —every week of every month of the year from September 2026 to August 2027–is an amount of your choosing between $150 and $250 per month.

 

You propose what you want to pay in the Application below. I will discuss and confirm it with you by email and/or our exploratory meeting.

 

If you pay for the year upfront, you receive one month free as a thank-you just for making my life simpler.

 

But if it helps your yearlong commitment to pay monthly, you are welcome to do so.

 

Note that paying monthly or paying all at once both require the same commitment to the entire year.

 

Questions? Email me at bethraps@raisingclarity.com or apply now using the Application below!

 

Remember the deadline to apply is midnight, Eastern time, on Sunday, August 16, 2026!

A free exploratory meeting with me is yours for the asking through Sunday, August 9.
