Creativity Coaching

From feeling frazzled to living in flow

I help frustrated artists come out of their shells and finally live authentically. And guess what: we’re all frustrated artists to some degree. Our innate gifts are hidden under years, and sometimes decades, of pain and fear. But that’s all about to change. In my PhD research, I explored the power of creativity as a transformative tool for growth and healing. And I want to share that with you. Why?

Because you were born creative

But at some point in your past, someone told you that you weren’t ‘Creative’. I use the big C here because so often people confuse being artistic with being creative. You don’t need to be able to paint to be creative (although it’s one of the most beautiful side effects).

Fear has more than likely kept you quiet, or maybe an old story you’re repeating to yourself about how you’re ‘not creative’ is blocking your creative juices. Creativity, just like breathing, is your birthright. The best part? You already have it within you and the more you use it, the more it becomes available.

Client Love

Responsive, responsible and trustworthy. The best part is that there’s always an overall campaign document for any project, outlining the key aspects, such as timeline, purpose and plan. I’m impressed not only by the speed and standard of the work, but also the focus on SEO or online in general. You give me confidence in the quality of the content and you save the whole team a lot of time when deciding what we should write. One of the best in the industry I have ever worked with.

“Wonderful. Smart. Easy to work with. Switched on. You got my brand tone right straight off the bat, and I really appreciated that. I love how flexible you are to work with, even listening to me speak and putting that into words. Working with you gives me faith that I'm not putting useless content out in the ether. I want to ensure that what I put out is valuable and you validate that.

FAQ

WHAT IS CREATIVITY COACHING?

Glad you asked! A creativity coach helps you reconnect with your passions. They provide tools, techniques and methods to unlock your creative potential and blast through any blocks.

HOW DOES CREATIVITY COACHING WORK?

It’s similar to other kinds of coaching when it comes to process. I’ll first assess where you’re at using questionnaires and conversation. Then, we’ll talk about your challenges, history and goals. I’ll give you activities, techniques and tools to use to push you closer to your goals. Plus, I’ll be on the lookout for any blindspots you might have when it comes to creativity. The bonus of doing this within a group, is that you also get to benefit from hearing about other people’s struggles and triumphs!

I WORK FULL-TIME, IS THIS GOING TO BE TOO FULL ON?

No way! The thing about coaching is that you only get out of it what you’re willing to put in. So take some time to think about whether or not you can commit to 3 months of creative freedom before you sign up. You can expect about 2-3 hours of work to do each week in my program (ideally up to 5 if you can swing it).

I AM TERRIFIED, BUT CURIOUS.

That’s a really good sign! If you’ve made it this far, your creative spirit is trying to break free. It’s time to ignore that negative voice in your head and listen to your gut. How do you want to spend your life? Expressing yourself often and with joy? Or trapped where you are. It’s your call my friend.
