You have been recommending journaling for years.
It almost never sticks, and it was never their discipline.
Innerfolk sends one written question each morning, chosen for the chapter of life somebody is actually in. A few lines are enough. At the end of the year, what they wrote becomes a book.
A free membership for you. A month free and $79 a year for the people you work with. No commission.
Today’s question
What are you pretending doesn’t bother you anymore?
Chosen because work is loudest, and you have been in it a while.
Start anywhere.
WHY IT DOES NOT STICK
The hard part was never the writing.
They bought the notebook. They wrote four entries in January and stopped, and when you asked, they said they had been busy.
They were not too busy. They were sitting at a blank page at seven in the morning being asked to decide what mattered.
Choosing what to write about is a second task, it arrives at the worst moment of the day, and it is the one nobody warns them about.
WHAT THEY ACTUALLY DO
Three things. That is the whole of it.
They say what is on their mind.
Work, money, love, something ending, something they cannot name yet. Six taps, once.
A question arrives each morning.
Already chosen. Written and approved by a person, not generated the moment they open it.
Their year becomes a book.
A year after they start, their entries are typeset and bound. What they thought, hoped for and noticed, in their own words.
WHY IT MAY SUIT YOUR WORK
Four things we deliberately did not build.
No AI reply
Nothing interprets, reflects back, or offers an opinion on what somebody wrote. The page stays quiet, which is the point.
No scoring
No mood graph, no streak, no progress bar. Nothing that turns a week into a number a person can fail at.
No monitoring
We do not read entries and cannot flag them. This is not a crisis tool and we say so plainly on the site.
It finishes
A year after somebody starts, their year closes and becomes a book. It is designed to end rather than to be used forever.
Everything a member writes exports as plain text, any time, with no request. If they leave, it leaves with them.
THE PART YOU ARE EXPECTING
There is no commission.
Fee-splitting is prohibited under the APA and ACA codes and by most state boards. We are not going to ask you to carry that for twenty dollars.
And it would spoil the thing. What makes your recommendation worth anything is that you gain nothing from it. A client can feel the difference even when they cannot name it.
No code with your name on it. No dashboard. No report of who signed up. We do not want to know.
Coaching is unregulated and commercial referral is normal there, so we do run a paid program for coaches. We would rather tell you that than have you find out.
WHAT WE ARE OFFERING
Free for you. Longer and cheaper for them.
FOR YOU
Innerfolk Edition, free
The $249 tier, with the printed book, for as long as you are practicing.
Because we would like you to have written in it through a difficult February before you mention it to anybody.
FOR THE PEOPLE YOU WORK WITH
14 days free, then $79
The standard trial is shorter and the standard price is $99.
Twice the standard trial, and $20 off. The hesitation is never the price; it is whether they will keep it up.
HOW YOU HAND IT ON
One page. No identifiers.
THE CARD YOU HAND OVER
A box of fifty, and more whenever you run out. Nothing on the card identifies you.
innerfolk.co/p
The same for every practitioner. It contains nothing about you, and it sets the price and the trial.
- Nothing to disclose on an intake form, because there is no arrangement to disclose
- No code, no cookie, no tracking parameter, no attribution
- We cannot tell you how many of your clients joined, because we do not know
IF SOMEBODY ASKS WHETHER YOU ARE PAID
No. I get a free membership because I use it. There is no commission, and they have no way of knowing whether you signed up.
True, and short enough to say without it becoming a conversation.
JOINING
The next person you say it to could still be writing next year.
A person reads every one of these and replies. We ask once for a license number or a professional body, and we do not keep it after we have checked it.
We use the address for the cards and nothing else. No newsletter, and we will not pass it on.
Thank you.
A person will read this and reply, usually within a working day. If you would rather just email, we are at support@innerfolk.co.
There is no obligation, no reporting, and nothing to sign.
