Booking, Payment, and Cancellation FAQs
Every Ascendify experience begins with your inquiry or request. Choose your experience and tier on the associated service solution page, then select Request Your Date and share your preferred dates, venue, attendee count, and goals. We review each request personally, confirm availability, and schedule a consultation call with founder Liz Adriano to tailor every detail of your experience with you. Once your date is confirmed, you'll receive your payment link to secure your booking. If you're planning a larger conference, multi-day program, or nationwide event and want a customized experience, request a custom proposal and we'll design something tailored to your team size, event format, goals, and timeline.

Keynotes and Attendee Attention Resets outside Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Phoenix, and the greater Phoenix East Valley include one flat T&E fee covering travel and expenses such as airfare, lodging, and ground transportation.

Most clients pay in full when they secure their booking. If you'd prefer to pay in stages, we can send you a private payment link for a 35% deposit, with the remaining 65% charged automatically the week before your event. Dates are held only once your deposit or full payment is received. Deposits are non-refundable, since we begin curating and customizing your entire experience as soon as your deposit is received.
We understand plans change. To honor the preparation behind every engagement, we ask for a minimum of 6 weeks’ notice when rescheduling or canceling any Ascendify experience. Your thoughtfulness helps us accommodate fellow clients and continue delivering the highest caliber of experience. Deposits are non-refundable, and any cancellations made within 6 weeks of your scheduled event will be non-refundable, reflecting our commitment to dedicated preparation. Should circumstances beyond your control arise, such as severe weather, a venue closure, or a regional emergency, we will gladly work with you to reschedule once within 6 months, applying your payment to your new date, at our discretion. We’re grateful for your understanding and truly value your partnership.
Every Ascendify experience is designed to be accessible for professionals of all fitness levels. Sharing a few details with your participants in advance ensures every attendee enjoys a safe and comfortable experience. Participants who are pregnant, have a pacemaker, epilepsy, or other significant health concerns should check with their physician before attending. Anyone who feels discomfort during a session is free to adjust their position or quietly step out at any time. To protect the health of your group, participants who are unwell or recently exposed to a contagious illness are encouraged to sit out and join a future session. If your organization has specific health protocols or accommodation needs, let us know during your consultation call so we can tailor the session to your corporate guidelines and participant needs.
Yes. Ascendify carries professional and general liability insurance, and we provide a certificate of insurance naming your venue as additional insured for every engagement. Simply share your venue's requirements during your consultation call, and we'll provide our COI for your event.
How to Integrate Attendee Attention Resets Into Your Agenda
No. Whether your group is arranged in theater, banquet, classroom, U-shape, reception, or hollow square seating, we tailor every element to your space rather than asking you to reconfigure your venue. The only equipment needed from your AV team is a lavalier microphone and an audio connection for your custom lyric-free playlist, curated specifically for your group to create optimal cognitive neural rest. We bring everything else.
Three impact windows produce the strongest results: the late morning transition into lunch, the post-lunch stretch through mid-afternoon, and the transition between the conference day and evening programming. These are the moments when attention, energy, and content retention reach their natural low at conference resorts, convention centers, and retreat properties alike.
Two things from your venue AV team: a lavalier microphone and an audio connection to play your curated lyric-free playlist. We bring everything else. The experience adapts to your existing seating, whether theater, banquet, classroom, U-shape, reception, or hollow square, so no room reconfiguration is needed.
Attendees stay in whatever they are already wearing. Suits, dresses, and conference attire all integrate beautifully with The Ascendify Method. No mats, blankets, props, or specialty equipment are required, and attendees do not need to bring anything.
No. Attendee Attention Resets and Interactive Keynotes are active experiences customized to your audience through guided meditation, deep breathing exercises, somatic movement, and mindfulness practices, with every movement designed around your room's seating configuration. The Ascendify Method Meditation, our proprietary vibroacoustic experience, is offered within our conference packages and team building solutions and workshops.
Preparing Your Event for an Interactive Keynote
Speaking engagements are booked in 1-hour time blocks. For a 2-hour session, simply note it on your Request Your Date form, and we'll confirm the full time block when your date is approved. During your pre-event consultation, Liz shapes the pacing and interactive segments to fit the exact window on your agenda.

Groups interested in The Ascendify Method Meditation, our proprietary vibroacoustic experience, can experience it within our conference packages, curated in small groups of 30 or fewer.
Yes, and many meeting planners do exactly that: a morning keynote introduces the practices, and a mid-afternoon Attendee Attention Reset reinforces them at the exact moment attention naturally dips. Both experiences are curated together during one pre-event consultation, so they complement each other and your agenda.
Escape Room Team Building Logistics and Group Planning
Your session can include The Ascendify Method Meditation, our proprietary vibroacoustic experience held in small groups of 30 or fewer; The Ascendify Method Yoga; The Ascendify Method Pilates; or a combined experience. Liz curates the mix around your team's goals, whether that's enhanced innovation, strategic clarity, stress resilience, team cohesion, or a combination.
None. We provide all instruments, yoga mats, blankets, props, and complete setup. Your team arrives, and we handle everything else.
No fitness or meditation experience is needed. Every element of The Ascendify Method is designed to be accessible for most bodies and all fitness levels, so every member of your team can participate fully.
Yes. For conference organizers, event planners, and leadership retreat facilitators, integrating Ascendify into your Scottsdale-area event gives your attendees a neuroscience-based experience that enhances every other element of your programming.
We recommend booking 3 to 6 months in advance to secure your preferred date. If your event is sooner, we invite you to contact us, and we'll do our best to accommodate whenever we can.
Yes, with 6 weeks’ notice before your team building session. Deposits are non-refundable, and cancellations made within 6 weeks of your session are non-refundable.
Every session is a shared escape from the stressors of high-pressure workdays that your team experiences together through The Ascendify Method Meditation, Yoga, Mobility, or Pilates. Research from the University of Minnesota found that teams with higher shared mindfulness were less likely to let disagreements over the work turn into personal conflict, and less likely to undermine each other. Your team leaves with a shared way of working through challenges that carries over into your meetings, projects, and decisions.
Integrating Breakout Session Workshops Into Your Conference
Session length depends on your agenda and goals. Shorter 30-minute sessions work well between content-heavy breakouts when attendees need a quick mental reset. Longer 45 to 60-minute sessions provide deeper cognitive restoration and are ideal as standalone breakout tracks. We collaborate with your event team to determine the optimal length and placement based on your agenda flow and attendee profile.
Our primary pricing area is Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Phoenix, and the greater Phoenix East Valley, and venues elsewhere in Arizona can be quoted during your consultation call. To begin, select Request Your Date on the Breakout Session Workshops page and share your preferred dates, venue, attendee count, and agenda. We review every request personally and schedule a consultation call with Liz Adriano to discuss your event goals, agenda flow, customization preferences, and venue logistics, then design Breakout Session Workshops tailored to your conference. Once your date is confirmed, we'll send your private payment link to secure your booking.
Planning Your Leadership Performance Workshop
Dr. Murre's research at the University of Amsterdam found that people forget approximately 70% of new information within 24 hours of learning it, a phenomenon known as the forgetting curve. Our Leadership Performance Workshop integrates strategically timed neuroscience-based sessions throughout your agenda, restoring mental clarity, supporting innovation, and reinforcing engagement. Each Ascendify session is positioned at the moments where your attendees would otherwise experience the steepest cognitive fatigue, helping your valuable content land and stay with them.
Yes, we specialize in customization. Every Ascendify Leadership Performance Workshop is fully customized to align with your conference theme, organizational goals, attendee profile, and venue. From branded stations to specialized workshop content, every element is designed to feel like a natural extension of your event. We also collaborate with your team to position sessions at the optimal points in your agenda where cognitive restoration will deliver the strongest content absorption.

How Workforce Wellbeing Consulting Engagements Work
Yes. Every survey response, interview, and focus group stays strictly confidential, and findings are shared only with the leaders you designate. We're glad to sign an NDA whenever your organization requires one.
Workforce Wellbeing Consulting focuses on the health of your organization: stress, engagement, retention, and psychological safety across your teams and leadership. Workforce Optimization Consulting focuses on the workspace and workflows where your teams perform. Many organizations pair the two for maximum impact.
