Step into our Listening Room

What started as an experiment—holding live conversations with artists on the fly—became so alive and meaningful that it has evolved into the Listening Room you’re visiting now.

These are one-to-one conversations—each close to 30 minutes, on a group call—with artists willing to navigate, and explore, how uncertainty affects their artistic practice

You’ll hear how the artist and I investigate the invisible forces shaping their artistic confidence, trust, and freedom. Nothing is scripted, and no two journeys sound the same.

Each conversation begins with a simple question:
“What’s holding you back?

And ends with a renewed sense of alignment between artists
and their artistic practice.

As I told the original artists back then:

Spirit might work a little magic tonight. Even if you’re just listening, an insight might arrive through someone else’s breakthrough.

My intention remains the same today as then:

That each of you leaves the experience feeling it made a difference you’ll remember.

Three audio conversations you can explore.

How Unlocking Self-Judgment Changes Everything

Paula:

When a Path Forward Becomes Your Greatest Cover Story

Kara:

When Fear Hides in a Throwaway Line, All Plans Disappear

Someone else’s breakthrough can
often touch a place in us that
wants to be noticed.

If that just happened, here’s
what’s possible.

Step No.1

You have an illumination, a transformation, an aha.

But this clarity only lasts when you anchor it in creative action.

If something stirred while you listened—if you felt a flicker of recognition—that’s your Artist Identity tapping you on the shoulder.

Step No.2

I invite you to begin your own conversation with me

by filling out the Application Form below.

A Reminder: When you accept one of the three openings for 2027
here’s what you get . . .

Your Artistic Practice Overview

A reflective questionnaire so you can really see what’s working, what’s changing, and what’s challenging right now

Two 60-minute, terrain-defying calls per month

With an option for 90 minutes when needed, over Zoom or phone (recorded upon request) for deep clarity, expanded confidence, and creative flow moving forward

Unlimited Support Along the Trail
Between Conversations

Write to me via email at any time, on any day, because insights, questions, and creative breakthroughs don’t keep office hours. I will respond during the business week, Monday through Friday

Customized Assignments for Integration and
Action as We Climb

Co-created practices, rituals, and exercises that translate insight into action so your Artist Identity stays present and accessible for everything on your artistic-practice path
Artist Identity Conversations
Application Form

The last step, after filling out this application, is a conversation.

Because of the close, personal nature of our work together, it’s important that it’s a right fit. We need to click so our conversations become nourishing, insightful, and deeply useful for your artistic practice.

Once you fill out the form below, I’ll read it and we can schedule a a 20-minute “how does this feel” conversation. Together we’ll figure out if this is the best, most effective way to move your artistic practice into a powerful place of momentum.

Ready? I’d love to know more about you and the art you make.

There are no right answers. No need to polish. Raw edges work just fine.

Artist Identity Conversation Form

Tell me about a piece—or body of work—where you felt most like yourself while making it.

Would you take a stab at describing what you understand about it already?

Or would like to understand, but aren’t quite there

Optional: Does spirituality matter to you in relation to your work, now,

or at any point in your life?

Any answer is fine: short, medium, long. Or… you are welcome to skip this entirely.

Do you have questions? Or, maybe you’d like to tell me more.

Policy for Cancellations & Refund Requests

CANCELLATIONS

Your monthly investment secures your reserved space, my preparation, and the coherent continuity of our work together.

  • Sessions may be rescheduled with at least 24 hours’ notice, whenever possible. 
    With notice, we’ll reschedule within the same month if availability allows.
  • Missed sessions without notice are not refundable and cannot be carried forward, as there is no opportunity to make that space available for another artist.
  • If you wish to cancel the entire four-month series, you may do so after our first conversation, and at least 48 hours before our second one. Your payment will be refunded minus the $500 preparation fee described under Refunds.

REFUNDS

The Artist Identity Conversations is a four-month, committed, relational container that begins with real work on my side.

The consistency of our meeting rhythm—and your place within it—is part of what creates safety, depth, and momentum in the work for both of us.

Before our first call, I prepare a deep dive into your artistic practice based on the Artistic Practice Overview you complete and send me. A $500 fee covers that preparation, and the Overview is yours to keep whether or not we continue.

Because of this:

  • Refunds follow the cancellation window under Cancellations.
  • The $500 cancellation fee covers administrative costs and my preparation for the first conversation: a deep dive into your artistic practice—past, present, and future—which also includes one of my proprietary templates for understanding your practice at any future point.

I understand how unpredictable life can be. If something unexpected or serious arises, please reach out. I’ll honor compassionate circumstance exceptions, so if something truly disastrous happens in your life during our work, no worries. I approach these moments with care, discernment, and flexibility… we’ll figure it out together.
