At LaurenConsul.com my goal is to provide therapy services, retreats, and support group services to help my clients the best way I can.
A small part of how I do this is by recommending books, products, services from other providers, as well as direct referrals to other providers. These recommendations and referrals can be sometimes be delivered by direct message, newsletter, or through blog posts or page links.
Below, you can find more information on my editorial process, including how I pick products and places, and how we may be compensated through our content.
Editorial Process
LaurenConsul.com is not a content-driven platform; however, at times, I produce content in the form of blog posts, Tiktok posts, Instagram posts, and featured pages. That can include book reviews, book recommendations, service recommendations, or product recommendations.
Although I do make personal recommendations, these come infrequently. As such, I’m committed to useful and practical information that I can speak from experience or knowledge. At times, I may have a guest writer or author complete a blog, but again, that would be done very infrequently. And because of the infrequence of these types of posts, I may not always have updated or live links, although I do my best to maintain a healthy database.
Affiliate Links & Recommendations
In many of my articles, especially recommendation based articles, I may earn a small commission when readers purchase products through those links.
This doesn’t affect which products are included in the articles, All of the books, services, and products are recommended for their quality and overall reputation regardless of any affiliate relationships.
I strive to recommend products and services that would fit best the majority of my audience and usually categorize our top picks as:
- Recommended: the pick that I feel best exemplifies the topic at hand.
- Other popular recommendations: the picks that I know to be well known and popoular that I may or may not have direct experience with.
- Wishlist recommendations: the recommendations that I haven’t yet, but personally want to try in the near future.
The commissions I make from these posts allow much to put as much time and energy into the research and vetting of these and future recommendations.
If, on the off chance, I receive products and services directly from a brand or a provider, it will be noted explicitly in the posting itself, although the vast majority of my recommendations come from a place of personal experience and as a result of a personal purchase. Any brands or products that pay for promotion or advertising on the site is considered “Sponsored.”
