Creativity coaching

Discover what creativity coaching is and isn't and how you could benefit from it.

What is creativity?

Creativity is the ability to create new connections (between ideas, for example) or new things. Under the right conditions, anyone can be creative.

What is creativity coaching?

Creativity coaching is getting help as a creator.

You come to me with things that you'd like to change or improve about your creative practice.

You might come to me when things get hard, heavy, or complicated, or when you're stuck.

You might also come to me when things are going well, but you hate promoting yourself, for example.

And in many other situations.

Your success is my success.

It's about you

Each creator is unique, with a unique life situation, a unique creative practice, and unique challenges.

So the plan we'll build together will be unique too.

The support you need

The sad truth is that, as a creator, you rarely get the support you need from your partner, your family, your peers, etc.

But you also don't get the honesty that your creative practice deserves.

I am the one who cares deeply and genuinely outside of your social circle.

We're both experts

You're an expert in your discipline.

I'm an expert at helping you succeed.

I won't teach you how to write (for example), but I will teach you how to get your writing done.

Creativity coaching is...

  • Coaching is transformational
  • Coaching is getting the help you need to find your own solutions
  • Coaching is gaining multiple perspectives
  • Coaching is asking and answering your big questions in a safe and supportive space
  • Coaching is reconnecting with your purpose
  • Coaching is so much more

But creativity coaching is not...

Coaching is not therapy: your mental health is important, and you should seek appropriate help.
