COACHING FOR CREATIVES

Are you a creative trying to build your business or career?

If you answered yes, this space for you. Here you’ll find coaching, tips and stories to help you with your professional journey.

Hi, I’m Karie

I’m passionate about helping creatives earn a living as a creative. I’m tired of seeing creatives become so frustrated they eventually give up on their creativity.

YES, THE STRUGGLE CAN BE VERY REAL

Not Sure How to Start

You’ve worked for a long time on your skills and are pretty good at what you do yet you  still can’t land a job or start the business.

Confused, Overwhelmed & Frustrated

There’s so much information out and you’ve tried several things but nothing seems to really work for you.

Getting Ready to Give Up

When the world continually tells us that we can’t make money form our skills, it’s so easy to walk away when things are not working out.

“The ability to achieve our goals is rooted in our beliefs and actions.”

– KARIE –

Your Mindset Matters

Okay, this is the part where I might lose you but I’ve done enough research and lived this out myself to know that the ability to achieve y(our) goals is rooted in y(our) beliefs and actions. I’m sure you’ve heard someone tell you how to make it as a creative. You may have bought a course, read a book, purchased a download or received this information in your final semester of school. So, if you already have the information, why don’t you have the creative job or business you desire?

Your subconscious beliefs and conflicting actions are holding you back.

But it’s not your fault. No one taught us this. I’ve coached clients who can literally go back to a thought they had as a child that turned into a deep rooted belief and that same belief stopped them from moving forward 10, 20, 30 and even 40 years laters!

 CAN YOU RELATE TO ANY OF THESE BELIEFS?

There’s so much more we could add to the list. The point is no matter how much we may want something we must take a look at our beliefs AND conflicting actions. What do I mean about conflicting actions? Say you want a job but you won’t update your resume, that’s conflicting actions. It may seem more like taking no action but no action is still an action.

HOW DO YOU DO THIS?

Three Steps to Help Your Move Forward

Gain Awareness

Before we can do anything we must first gain awareness around your conscious and subconscious beliefs. We’ll also discover what you really want to achieve and what success looks like for you.

Take Action

It doesn’t matter if you get one of my downloads, listen to a podcast episode or sign up for a coaching session, I’m always going to challenge yo to tak small steps towards your goal.

Accept Accountability

Accountability can carry a lot of negative emotion but think of it this way; I’m your guide who’s here to make sure you do what you said you wanted to do in the most encouraging way.
