ABOUT LIFEGUIDES

“More Casual Than Therapy, More Qualified Than a Friend”

More than a brand, we are a MOVEMENT.  Our mission is to grow a community for sharing life experience and empathy, which impacts 1B lives in 15 years. 

OUR PROMISE TO YOU

At LifeGuides, we believe it’s our responsibility to provide our Guides with the same level of compassion and care that we provide to our clients and their employees.

First and foremost, you will be surrounded by people who share common values:

C – put Community above self

L – lead with Love

E – Elevate humanity

A – Accountable to excellence through trust

R – build Resilience as we grow.

We will support you from the time you're onboarded and through continuous training.

Although experimentation and change are constant at LifeGuides, we will seek your input to strengthen our Guide Community and better support our members. We ask you to be patient and embrace change as it comes.

We will provide a fun, team-oriented, judgment-free environment where we can all learn from and support one another.
