What does it look like?
I’ve offered 1:1 coaching to scores of creatives, from startup founders, therapists, podcasters, and healing practitioners—to artists, influencers, filmmakers, musicians, screenwriters, and more. For some, their dreams were just an idea, for others, they were ready to take things to another level. But each was ready to step out of perfectionism, overthinking, and burnout and into aligned growth.
This is a private, exploratory, and deeply bespoke space. Because no one can grow your business for you, but you. I’m just the person who supports you to discover and build the clarity, confidence, and systems to do it your way.
First, you’ll set your commitments; your vision, your goals, the aligned outcome you’re stepping into. Then we’ll examine your current patterns, your values, your vision, and of course your offers; from what’s working, to what’s ready to shift. From there, we’ll clarify your positioning, visibility strategy, and ways of working that feel simple and authentic to you.
That said, every coaching series is entirely tailored. Only want to focus on Instragram engagement, or starting a Substack? We can do that! But the common thread is this: taking deeply meaningful authentic action through small, achievable steps—without compromising your integrity or your voice. And without burning out.
Together, we’ll…
~ Clarify your positioning and what makes your voice stand out.
~ Design or refine your offers and income streams.
~ Show up confidently and consistently, even if visibility feels scary.
~ Simplify your workflows so you can support energetic sustainability.
~ Move beyond perfectionism, procrastination, and overwhelm.
What’s included
A personalised intake process so I can understand your business, goals, and challenges
6x 1:1 coaching sessions held online over three months (tailored to your needs and pace)
Bespoke mindset and business practices, and accountability to support you between sessions
Unlimited weekday access to me via email/Voxer for feedback and breakthroughs in between
Resources, tools, and insights drawn from over a decade of media leadership, sustainable business practice, visibility, and creative mentorship.
By the end of our time together, you’ll have greater clarity on your positioning, a business structure that feels more spacious, and the practice and determination to keep showing up authentically. You’ll know how to streamline your offers and workflow, and you’ll feel resourced to keep growing.

FAQs
-
Coaching is bespoke and extendable, but starts with a minimum three-month container. Real change and growth take time, and consistency helps us create sustainable results.
-
Yes. Coaching is an investment, and I want to make it accessible. Clients can pay up front, or via three monthly payment plans, once accepted.
-
Therapy explores your inner emotional world; coaching is about your outer goals, plans, and actions in business. While my therapeutic training inevitably informs the way I show up for our work, this offer serves a very different purpose and audience. It is focused on coaching for visibility, positioning, and sustainable growth specifically in creative business/freelance work. If you’re looking for arts psychotherapy, please explore my arts therapy page.
-
That’s absolutely fine. Many of my clients come in feeling unclear about what they’re offering or building as a small business or self-employed creative. Part of our work together is clarifying your unique positioning and shaping offers that feel both aligned and viable.
-
Me too. You’re not alone! Many of my clients identify as neurodivergent, live with chronic conditions, or battle with perfectionism and procrastination. This coaching isn’t about “fixing” you; it’s about finding strategies and ways of working that fit you. Together, we’ll create a business that supports your real life and energy levels.
-
That happens. Many of my clients have worked with other coaches before but felt unseen in their uniqueness. However I will not tell you what to do in this program. Our work is collaborative, personalised, and rooted in both strategy and creativity. Ultimately, the responsibility for taking action on your ideas lies with you.

When you’re ready to hit “apply”, you’ll fill in a short survey form to share more about your creative work, your goals, and what you’re looking for. If it feels like a good fit, I’ll reach out to schedule a call so we can connect and confirm the next steps together.
