Creative Career Design Course
ONLINE THIS FALL/WINTER
MAP YOUR PROJECT, DESIGN YOUR PRACTICE
MOVE YOUR CAREER TOWARDS RADICAL SUSTAINABILITY
**beta tester applications are now open**
A live, community-based online course for project-makers, artists, visionaries, and creative humans.
After working with over 100 people this year, and leading more than 20 workshops and retreats, I’ve built this course to be the most comprehensive dive into the creative career design process I’ve been researching and developing for the past six years.
Learn to navigate your career landscape with a confident clarity of vision, making choices that are in line with how you actually like spending your days on this planet.
We will be learning to use new tools, having important conversations, and working together to move closer to a radically sustainable creative practice.

"I walked away with more clarity than I have felt in years re: where I should be putting my time, energy, and efforts when it comes to my career. It's f***ing great and you should do it!"
-Tiffany Topol, songwriter/producer/musician/actor extraordinaire
Course Features
A Flexible Commitment
The course is split into three 4-week sections. Not sure if you want to commit to all 12 weeks? Just sign up for the first four and see how it goes. I’ve designed the course so that even if you choose to just do Section 1 or Sections 1 and 2 you’ll come away with critical knowledge and life-changing resources.
Weekly Call
Each week we will gather on a Zoom video call. Our time will include a teaching session, Q&A time, and co-working session where we tackle the coursework and exercises together.
Mastermind Forum
All participants will have 24/7 access to an online mastermind group on Slack. This will be a place to brainstorm, converse, share new ideas, and get support from me and the other participants throughout the week.
Digital Resource Library
Each participant will have a personal online workbook, updated throughout the course with new exercises, explorations, and mapping canvases. Additionally, I will add extra videos, case studies, articles, and other resources throughout the duration of the course in case you want to go deeper on any subject.
Workshop Calls
Every few weeks our group call will be in the format of a workshop. Participants will have a chance to share their maps or other coursework and get focused feedback and support from me and the rest of the group.
Personal Accountability
After the first week, participants will be paired into accountability partnerships. Partners will check in weekly to give each other support and camaraderie throughout the course. I will do a personal mid-course call with you and your accountability partner to connect on anything that needs a more focused and personalized conversation.
Call Recordings
Can’t make it to one of the calls? Want to review something we learned a few weeks ago? No problem! Participants will have access to recordings of every call from the course.
Ongoing Community
You have a team now. There is a growing community of talented, driven artists and musicians who have gone deep with this material. Even after this 3-month course is complete, you (along with dozens of other folks who have taken a long-form workshop or online course) are automatically accepted into the exclusive Creative Career Design Community. This includes access to the soon-to-launch online forum, free periodic group calls with me and other course alum, and regular free resources like case studies and new career design strategies I’m developing. For so many of us who are working independently, having the support of a team of like-minded creatives can make all the difference.
The Struggle
Almost every musician or artist I’ve ever met deals with so much frustration, constantly having to re-invent the wheel just so that people might hear or see what they create. Despite all this hard work even the most talented artists I know rarely break even financially.
I have seen so many brilliant people spending valuable time on jobs that they hate, having to put off amazing projects, receiving a tiny fraction of the appreciation their work deserves, and getting completely burned out by having to manage every detail of their careers.
I have dealt with many of these frustrations myself.
That’s why for years now I have focused on helping talented, driven musicians and artists who are feeling overworked and underpaid create sustainable careers doing what they love.
