Wondering if this is for you?
There are two types of creative I’ve been writing to. If you’re one of these two, you’ve been carrying a question you rarely say out loud: …Is this it?
you've spent a decade or two making things for others - whether in advertising, marketing, broadcast, production, post, design, visual effects. You've earned the credits, the relationships, the war stories. But lately the ground feels different under your feet and you’re not sure where to turn next.
OR
perhaps you pursued a career that pays the bills, but the creative, expressive life your soul demands has been relegated to the background for years, waiting, and occasionally appearing as a nagging voice or a yearning.
Wondering what we’ll do?
First, we get honest about where you are, the real deal. Then we look at where you want to go. I'll walk you through a few methods to get your brain unstuck and realigned with your heart.
Then, you pick one ‘kickoff’ move. One that’s compelling and simple enough to start on Monday the 9th. And tied to a broader plan which you’ll have two weeks to implement. Plus you’ll be paired with an accountability partner to help each other stay on track.
Finally, on November 22nd we’ll reconvene to discuss the two weeks: what worked, what didn’t, what surprised you, and what you need next.
A few house rules.
Confidentiality: You agree that what's said in the room stays in the room, names included.
Feedback: You agree to complete a short questionnaire about your experience.
Patience: You agree to be patient with me, as this is the first experience I'm building for you.
Let’s keep it small so everyone gets the time they need.
12 seats available. Sign-ups close Thursday, November 5.
Make the decisive move: give yourself the gift of commitment and action to look forward to! Sign up here, now:
Can’t wait to see your faces! Oh - one last request: think of one person. Maybe a former colleague who's been talking about a change for a year. Or a talented friend who changes the subject whenever you ask about their day gig. The one who feels stuck, seems stagnant, and needs inspiration and clarity to get out of their own way.
Forward them this email, urge them to check out the site. Just one person. This community will thrive if the right people join us. Thank you!
We’ve got this.
Onward,
Kevin
Founder, THE COURAGEOUS
