Leaving your comfort zone is so much easier when you're doing it in good company!
Twice a month, from May to October, we'll gather as a creative community for group coaching calls.
These will alternate between workshop style sessions on topics related to creativity and inspired action, co-creating sessions and "hot seat" style coaching calls where participants take turns receiving personalized feedback, encouragement and support on their goals and projects.

Dear artist,
You know what it feels like to receive a creative impulse. The warm rush of a new idea. The fresh potential of a creative thing that wants to come through you.
The sketchbook longing to the filled. The poem wanting to be drafted. A series asking to be painted. The melody just waiting for its lyrics. The gallery space that could support other artists. The Instagram reel that could launch your project.
But before long, indecision, perfectionism, doubt or fear crept in. Should I do this way or that way? Is this idea even any good? What will people think? How should I even begin?!
Instead of riding the wave of inspired action, you found yourself stalling out, and fair enough. We’ve all been there! Tucking away good ideas for “one day when…”
Here’s the thing: you have a choice.
You can choose to keep your creative ideas tucked away as just ideas: dreams of what “could have been.” You’ll see others doing similar things and feel a rush of judgment or superiority — “I thought of that first!” “Mine would have been better!”
But that’s the thing about avoiding action: you’ll never know.
You can’t grow as a creative without actively creating, without sticking with an idea long enough to receive the learning and discoveries it has to share. And this is where inspired action mastermind comes in.
When you avoid taking inspired action on your ideas, it’s not because you’re bad or undisciplined. It’s because you’re overwhelmed and under-supported.
This is where inspired action comes in. Inspired action on our creative goals requires skillsets that are rarely taught or modeled in our society. Tools like gentle curiosity; a commitment to playfulness; aggressive self-acceptance; an ability to soothe and regulate your nervous system; and an ability to embrace your need for others.
Inspired action invites you on a journey of venturing past the warm-and-fuzzy fresh ideas and into the thick of the messy middle from which you will emerge better for having experienced it — with art, skills, new creative friends, and experiences that will serve you for decades to come.
Get your ass in before the doors close! The ship sets sail May 16.

“There is a vitality, a life-force, an energy, a quickening, that is translated through you into action and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique.
And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost. The world will not have it."
-Martha Graham
Hi! Ashley (she/they) here.
A lifelong learner who geeks out to neuroscience and personality tests, I'm an Enneagram 4w5, INFP, with a Sag Sun, Aries Rising, with an Aquarius Moon.
I am a multi-media artist and creativity coach and love helping artists move through creative blocks like perfectionism, doubt and visibility fear, so you (and your work!) can take up more space in this world.
Drawing from a background in Montessori education and creative development, I help you partner with your inner-child, values, intuition, and nervous system to hone your creative practice, voice and vision in ways that prioritize flow over force and ease over hustling.
Meet your coach!
