“I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy and to make plans.”
― Ernest Hemingway, A Moveable Feast
The beautiful thing about creative community is that we don’t come together because we are the same, but because we want to explore our differences. And as we explore and appreciate and discover the beauty in each person’s uniqueness, we create a space where we all belong.
This duality of standing out while also being an integral part of something greater is what makes our creative community so flavorful, dynamic, and energizing.
Each of us spins out a unique thread, and together, we weave an evolving tapestry of purpose, meaning, and beauty. The tapestry could not exist without the threads, and the threads would have no meaning if not for the tapestry.
Here are a few examples of creative projects we are working on in project studio:
We’d love to have you join us. Here are a few suggestions:
Pick a project that’s just for you. It could be a personal project, like a kitchen remodel or learning how to paint watercolors. Or it could be a professional project, like re-thinking and refreshing your business offering, or designing and delivering a workshop. Either way, it should be something that’s meaningful to you. Be ready to be asked, “are you being true to yourself?”
Stretch yourself. Pick something that challenges you. Lean into uncertainty. If you know the outcome in advance, it’s not a creative project. A good creative project is like an adventure — there should be an idea of what “done” looks like, but enough uncertainty that there is a real chance of failure.
This is a peer-to-peer program, and it is only as good as the people who show up. We want people who are committed to doing good work and serious about finishing.

A program with clear milestones and deadlines.
Weekly, highly interactive 90-minute group calls, workshops, and work sessions, using breakout groups and online whiteboards to maximize conversation, connection, and collaboration.
