An office-hours kind of space

Support should not disappear
the day you leave.

People often leave a facility after two weeks, two months, or six months and discover that real life brings new questions. The structure is gone. Familiar support is farther away. There may still be more to learn—or simply a need for a steady place to return.

Office Hours is Ali’s weekly, office-hours-style gathering: Ali is there at the same two times each week, ready to teach, listen, reflect, and make room for the challenges participants bring from everyday life.

Important: Office Hours is educational and community support. It is not psychotherapy, group therapy, clinical aftercare, case management, a facility program, or crisis care.

ALI IN THE ROOM

Teaching becomes more useful when there is room for questions, reflection, and the experience people actually bring with them.

Educational gathering · Not group therapy

Inside selected sessions

Hear the book
before publication.

Some sessions will include a reading from a selected chapter or theme in Cleanse Your Lens of Perception, followed by an open discussion. The material can change from session to session, so each gathering stands on its own.

Participants may be among the first people to hear developing material and offer an early-reader perspective. Thoughtful reactions may help Ali notice what feels clear, what lands deeply, and what deserves further refinement before publication.

Participation does not promise access to every chapter, editorial control, authorship credit, or inclusion of any suggestion in the final manuscript.

“Come with a question. Leave with another way to see it.”

NOT READY TO REGISTER OR PAY?Join the first-to-know list instead.

This is the no-payment alternative. It does not create a registration, signed agreement, or reserved seat.

Which weekly track interests you?

Interest only: no charge, seat reservation, or participation agreement is created by this form. When paid registration opens, every policy must be checked individually and the complete agreement must be signed before payment.

Included in the signed checkout

Clear expectations
from the beginning.

These are not display-only policies. Each one is included in the required paid-registration acknowledgments and must be accepted before signature and payment.

Payments, refunds & monthly cancellation

All completed payments are final and nonrefundable. Monthly plans renew until canceled. Cancel before the next renewal to stop future charges; cancellation does not create a prorated refund or credit for the current billing period.

Missed sessions & drop-in transfers

Monthly missed sessions do not roll over and do not create credits. A one-time drop-in may be moved once to another available Office Hours if the request is received before the original session begins. After the start time, the session is treated as used.

Holidays, closures & host changes

There may be announced holiday or closure dates, and the schedule may occasionally change. If Ali cancels a paid session, participants will receive a replacement date or account credit.

One registration, one active participant

Each registration is for one participating adult. Loved ones may naturally be nearby at home, but the private link, materials, and active speaking participation belong to the registered attendee and may not be shared.

Privacy & group limits

Participants will be asked to respect one another’s privacy, but no online group can guarantee that another participant will keep information confidential. Share with care. Recording, screenshots, and redistribution are not permitted.

Clinical and emergency boundary

Office Hours is not psychotherapy, medical or mental-health treatment, clinical aftercare, or crisis response. Participation is independent of any facility. Anyone in immediate danger or crisis should contact local emergency services or the appropriate crisis resource.
