Steward + shape
The Illuminator Council.
Steward what wealth and power make possible.
The Council is not a higher level of coaching. It is an advisory and influence network for established founders, CEOs, investors, philanthropists and significant leaders — and a hand in shaping the future of the Movement itself.
What am I going to do with the influence and power I have accumulated?
$50,000 – $100,000/year · By invitation
Membership is by invitation and reference only.
For the established Illuminator asking what to do with what they have already built.
Founders and leaders with a $5M to $100M+ company, substantial personal wealth, an investment portfolio, multiple businesses, real audience or industry authority and philanthropic interests.
- You are no longer asking how to make your first million. You are asking what this level of influence is for.
- You do not need another course. You need peer relationships, strategic counsel, access and perspective.
- You want legacy architecture — institutions, succession, family wealth strategy, intellectual property.
- You want a room where you can speak honestly at your level, with people who want nothing from you.
The Council is not for status-collecting. It is for those who accept that success creates responsibility.
Checkmate asks how to scale the organisation. The Council asks what the power is for.

These are the institution's stewards
Five stages of becoming an Illuminator. Belong. Become. Build. Scale. Steward.
These are not five programs. They are one path. The mission underneath all of it is the same: stewarding the greatest wealth transfer in history — and multiplying it for generations to come.
- 01
I belong
The Illuminator Network
$49/month · $490/year
Where do I belong?
Identity, belonging and the room. The philosophy, the private conversations, the member community and the Hubs in your city.
For the emerging founder — $100K to $500K — who wants their people before they want another tactic.
- 02
I become
Illuminator Academy
$1,997 – $2,500
Who do I need to become?
Six levels — Identity, Vision, Influence, Leadership, Stewardship, Legacy. The leadership school that builds the person the vision requires.
For the emerging to building founder who knows the business cannot grow faster than the founder.
- 03
I build
Illuminator Business School
$7,500 – $10,000
What do I need to build?
The Illuminator Business Method — ten pillars from founder positioning to wealth. Your expertise becomes intellectual property, and the business becomes a machine.
For the building founder — $500K to $5M — who has proven they can create money and now wants a machine.
- 04
I scale
Checkmate
$25,000/year · by application
How do I scale it beyond me?
A private strategic environment for founders building an organisation, wealth engine and leadership team that can operate without them.
For the 30 to 42 year-old founder at $500K to $5M+ with a team of three to thirty, hitting the founder ceiling.
- 05
I steward
Illuminator Council
$50,000 – $100,000/year · by invitation
How do I steward wealth, influence and power?
Not a higher tier of coaching. An advisory and influence network convened around five tables: Wealth, Influence, Power, Legacy and the Future.
For the established founder — $5M+, multiple businesses, real wealth and audience — asking what the influence is for.
You are here
And then legacy — I multiply. The promise is not that you become rich. It is that you become capable of stewarding what wealth, influence and power make possible.

See the SummitWe build with God at the centre.
The Illuminator Movement is built on the word of God. We believe every good thing — wealth, influence, power, talent, time — is entrusted by Him, never self-made, and given to be stewarded faithfully. Work is worship. Profit is a tool. Legacy is the assignment. You do not have to share our faith to belong here, but you should know what we are building on, and we will not build on anything else.
“To whom much is given, much will be required.” — Luke 12:48 ♖
