The Counsel

The Counsel is a free, editorial Framer template for coaches, consultants, advisors, and anyone whose work runs on trust.

Most sites in this space try to impress. The Counsel is built to reassure — a calm, considered layout with a warm Forest & Antique Gold palette, a Lora + Inter type pairing, and quiet, ease-in-out motion. It looks like a practice you'd actually hire.

11 pages, ready to publish:

• Home - a dual "two ways in" hero

• Approach - beliefs + the origin story, with a Team section

• Who It's For - a plain, honest qualifier

• Inside the Work - what an engagement holds

• The Programmes - offerings + an animated benefits carousel

• Request a Conversation - a considered, multi-part enquiry form

• Contact, Privacy, 404

• Journal - a full CMS blog with article pages
