Disclaimer & Nature of Our Community

Important information about The Dreamer Circle community, our resources, and legal considerations

Ownership & Background

Path of the Dreamer is owned and operated by Dr. Carol Schultz and Chris Schultz—educators, researchers, and mid-life wellness enthusiasts who transformed their own health after 50.

This website shares our personal journey and the evidence-based Human Flourishing Model that guided our combined 35kg weight loss and lifestyle transformation. We've combined Carol's doctorate in Human Flourishing with Chris's 40 years in education to create a supportive online community where adults 50+ can pursue similar transformations.

Our content and community resources draw from:

  • Education and Teaching – 40+ years combined experience in formal education
  • Human Flourishing Research – Carol's doctoral research on resilience, community, and lifelong learning
  • Personal Health Transformation – Our lived experience losing 35kg/77lbs after age 50
  • Evidence-Based Wellness Practices – Knowledge gained through nutrition and fitness training
  • Community Building – Creating peer support environments for mid-life adults

All resources offered through this website are designed to support your wellness journey through community-based learning, peer accountability, and evidence-based guidance rooted in our personal experiences and educational backgrounds.

No Professional Advice

The information and resources provided on this website are intended for general educational purposes only. They are not:

  • medical advice
  • psychological or therapeutic advice
  • financial or investment advice

We strongly encourage you to seek guidance from appropriately qualified professionals before making decisions or changes relating to your:

  • diet or nutritional intake
  • exercise or movement routines
  • use of supplements or other products
  • mental health, wellbeing, or therapeutic needs
  • financial plans, investments, or legal arrangements

By using this website, you acknowledge that you remain responsible for your own health, wellbeing, and financial decisions and that you will consult suitable professionals where needed.

Community & Educational Resources

Our primary offering is The Dreamer Circle—a private online community on Skool where members:

  • Share their wellness journeys and hold each other accountable
  • Learn from our experiences and the Human Flourishing Model
  • Access educational resources, monthly masterclasses, and peer support
  • Connect with other adults 50+ pursuing health transformations

This is not professional medical, nutritional, or therapeutic advice. It is peer-based learning and community support rooted in our personal experiences and educational backgrounds.

We also offer optional 1-on-1 coaching for members seeking personalized guidance. However, all services—whether community-based or one-on-one—are:

  • Educational and supportive in nature
  • Not a substitute for medical, psychological, or financial advice
  • Based on the Human Flourishing Model, our lived experiences, and educational backgrounds
  • Focused on lifestyle transformation through evidence-based wellness practices

Our community explores the 6 dimensions of health from the Human Flourishing Model (physical, emotional, social, purposeful living, lifelong learning, and financial wellness). However, members are strongly encouraged to work alongside appropriate licensed healthcare providers, registered dietitians, therapists, or financial advisors as needed for medical diagnoses, treatment, mental health support, or specialized care.

The Dreamer Circle is a peer support community, not a professional healthcare service. All guidance shared reflects our personal transformation journey and should complement—not replace—professional medical, psychological, or nutritional care.
