Why is it so hard to be a creative and why is it important to you?

Schedule an interview

​I have a favor to ask.  If you know anyone who fits the description below could you send this along to them? 

I am looking to interview some artists and creatives, so I can refine my understanding of how I can be of help as I am developing new group offerings and support materials. These conversations, which are private- not published in any way, are a lot of fun for both of us and often are quite helpful and inspiring.

Specifically, I am looking for people who value creating work that is authentic, meaningful, and high quality, whether they feel like they are achieving those values currently or not. And they may not have gotten as far in their creative career as they would like, but they have a fair amount of experience and or training.

They may also be developing their business or work direction, whether that is selling their creative work or some other self-employed business like teaching, consulting, coaching or body work. 

I know how hard this path can be because I have been on it for a long time. Every one of us is different, and I am deeply aware that in order for me to be of real service, I need to be listening well outside of my own experience. 

I am  interested in talking with as diverse a group of individuals as I can within these values, whether that diversity is based in cultural heritage and personal background or types of work and level of experience.

I am looking to understand more about the challenges and personal struggles, as well as what has helped, what needs have not been met, what questions they grapple with and how I can be of service. I will also be asking questions to help me understand how best to be found by the people who could most use my support.

In exchange for 1/2 hour of interview, I would like to offer 1/2 hour of coaching. This can all happen within one phone or zoom call, or it can be 2 separate appointments.

I should mention that, though this is not intended as a sales strategy, I am always listening for ways that I can be of help. If, in the course of our conversation, I feel I could be of service to someone, and we might be a good fit, I may ask if they would like to talk about what it would look like to work together. And it is totally fine if they do not want to have that conversation.

If you know anyone who would fit this description, please pass this along to them.
