When a business failed, when fifteen years of carrying something I could not put down had just begun, the help that existed was priced for people who were already doing reasonably well. Courses at four hundred pounds that covered a single aspect of a problem that does not arrive in neat separate categories. Coaching at five hundred a session. Frameworks that required financial comfort to access at exactly the point when financial comfort was gone.

When you are down is not the time to be asked to buy a two-thousand-pound course so you can achieve more.

That is one reason for this price. There is another.

If you have worked hard to get to a good place, you deserve a programme that is not treating your success as a reason to charge more. You have earned the right to invest wisely. $97 for the complete framework, every book being written, live ongoing training, and a community is not a charity price. It is a fair one. For once, your financial position is not being used against you either way.

The only thing I ask is that you share it.

Pay it once. The door stays open for as long as you need it. Everything added after you join is included automatically. No further decisions to make.

This is not a fixed product. It is a growing library — and it grows with the people in it. Members shape what gets built next: topics, courses, new books. Everything listed here is in the membership now. Everything added after you join is yours automatically.

EVERY BOOK IN THE CATALOGUE

All ten current titles including the full Calm Edge trilogy. Four new Calm Edge books are already being outlined. Every title published while your membership is active is included automatically. No additional charge, ever.

ALL COURSES & MINI TRAININGS

Every course in the Calm Edge curriculum, plus the mini trainings being built alongside the new books. New material added as it is released. No extras to buy. Nothing gated behind an upgrade. All yours. All the time.

LIVE WEEKLY TRAININGS

Live. Every week. Nolan trains the full framework, takes questions, and follows the room wherever it needs to go. Not a recording library with a forum underneath it. The real thing, every week. Attend as many sessions as the work requires.

QUARTERLY FIVE DAY CHALLENGE

Five days of live sessions every 3 months. Morning and evening cohorts to work around your schedule. One thread, one real pattern, your pattern, worked all the way through. Return as many times, across as many months, as the work requires.

COMMUNITY

A working community, not a passive feed. The place to ask questions, find support between sessions, and connect with people doing the same work. Nolan is active every day unless he’s on holiday. Questions get answered safely. Everyone brings something unique.

THE REFERRAL PROGRAM

Your unique referral link is active from the moment you join. 25% commission on every referral. Paid monthly. Four referrals recovers the full membership cost. After that, it generates income. Built in from day one, not an optional add-on

On the way: FIVE new Calm Edge books are currently being outlined, each with its own mini training. Parenting, Relationships, Teenagers, Teachers and Leadership. They will land in the membership as they are published. If you join now, you get everything that exists today and everything that follows. The library keeps growing. Your access does not change.

PLUS… a major Calm Edge training for all life areas coming later this year. I’ll be dropping parts of it here before it goes live and MAY increase the price for new members when it is added. Join now and you get it included.

WHY ONCE?

Most monthly fees create exactly the state this work is designed to address.

Money activates all four core states simultaneously. Safety, gain and loss, clarity, self — all four shift the moment a financial question enters the room. A monthly subscription turns that into a recurring trigger. Every thirty days, a question you did not ask for: is your own growth worth the money this month?

That question is a core state activation. And it is running inside a programme built around reducing unnecessary reactivity.

One payment removes it entirely. One decision. Done. No anxiety about whether this is the month you quietly let your own development go. No thinking about canceling because nothing major happened this month to warrant checking in.

Chapter 9 of The Calm Edge book covers money and the core states in detail. It is one of the most useful chapters in the trilogy.

There is not one answer for everyone. There is one answer for you, in each situation — and it could be different next month. The library gives you the pieces. You use what you need, when you need it. No judgement about which ones you reach for. No blame about which ones you have not yet.

This is not going to change. It is a position, not a promotion.

Every member gets a unique referral link from the moment they join. You recommend the work because it produces results for you. The affiliate programme means your recommendation also generates income for you (and helps me keep offering this at a low price and pay for food, gym, and the website!) Four referrals and the membership has cost you nothing. After that, you earn more for any new referrals.

Your referral link is active from day one. There is no application, no approval, and no separate programme to join. It is part of the membership.

Self-help has not always been an industry. Socrates sat in the agora and questioned whoever would engage — he charged nothing. Epictetus, a former slave, taught Stoicism to anyone who came. Diogenes lived in a barrel and offered his thinking freely. The Buddha walked from village to village. Confucius taught students regardless of their background or means. Hypatia of Alexandria opened her lectures to whoever turned up. People offered what they could, when they could. The exchange was honest. The commodification of wisdom is recent, and it has produced exactly the kind of financial anxiety this work is designed to address. $97 once is my version of this. You sharing with others and earning a little extra for it is my way of giving it back.

What does lifetime mean?

Lifetime of the programme. If the programme ever closes, a minimum of three months’ notice is given and all content already in the membership remains accessible. The commitment is genuine.

What does the library look like right now?

Ten books at time of launch, including the full Calm Edge trilogy. Four new titles are already being outlined and will be included automatically when they land. All courses and mini trainings in the curriculum. Live weekly training sessions. Monthly five-day challenges in morning and evening cohorts. Community with direct access to Nolan.

Do I get physical books?

The membership includes digital access to all titles. Physical copies are available separately on Amazon.

What if I miss live sessions?

All live sessions are recorded and available to members. The same session, revisited at a different point in the work, often produces different results. Members are encouraged to return to training as many times as the work requires, not just once.

Is there a free trial?

No. The books are available individually for $7 each if you want to understand the framework before committing. The membership price is already designed to remove financial risk. $97 once is a different proposition to $97 per month.

This seems too good to be true. How does it work as a business?

It is a fair question and it deserves a straight answer.

The library is new. It will grow — and it grows partly based on what members actually need. Topics, courses, new books: the direction of the work is shaped by the people using it and finding themselves in new situations where the Calm Edge isn’t quite there yet. That is not a gap to apologise for. It is the point. A programme built around real patterns and situations rather than a fixed curriculum produced without you in it.

Here is the full picture of how this works financially. Paperback book sales. Merchandise — which is coming soon, and yes, it will be on a mug. I look at this as a way of life, and a way of life deserves a decent mug, or t-shirt. Coaching for the person who wants direct help with a specific pattern. Corporate training for organisations that genuinely want to change behaviour rather than just be seen to try. That is it. No multi-layer structure. No upsells once you are in. No premium tier that makes the $97 feel like a waiting room.

The growth mechanism is simple: if the work produces results, you share it. The affiliate programme pays you when you do. I grow when you do. That is the deal.

This is a big risk for you. DIdn’t anyone try to talk you out of it?

Yes, it is a big risk. Yes, I’ve been called crazy. That said, I believe in this and what it will do for the people who take it in. There’s an old quote I’ve seen a few times by Zig Ziglar:

“You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help enough other people get what they want.”.

I think everyone wants a level of peace and calm in their lives that they don’t have right now. I know this will help. It’s a risk worth taking for me. And the more people who use it, and share it, the better their lives will be because the people around them will also understand what it means to live with a Calm Edge.

Can I get a refund?

If that question is already running, I’ll say this directly: if $97 feels like a risk you are not certain about, this is probably not the right moment to join. And that is fine.

Start with the books. $7 each. Read The Calm Edge, particularly Chapter 9, which covers money and the core states. Come back when you’re ready.

What is NOT included?

If this is the “catch” you’re looking for, this is it. One to one coaching is not included, however I will do some coaching in the community. Live training for companies is not included. Local workshops, which I’ll be offering in multiple locations at some point soon, will not be included, but will be discounted for existing members. Printed material and merchandise is not included. If it’s digital, and I can add it to the member area, it’s included.

Every book being written. Every course and mini training. Live training every week. Quarterly challenges. Community. A programme that grows with you, at a price that never asks you to decide again.

No subscription • No renewal • No catch
