What Is Career Coaching for Artists & Creatives?
Creative career coaching is designed specifically for artists, musicians, photographers, writers, designers, and freelancers who want to turn their passion into a fulfilling, sustainable career. Unlike traditional career coaching, this process addresses the unique struggles of creative professionals—such as pricing your work, developing an audience, handling rejection, and navigating the tension between artistic integrity and commercial success.
Whether you’re just starting out or looking to grow your career, my coaching approach blends strategy, mindset shifts, and creative exploration to help you achieve your professional goals while staying true to your artistic vision.
