“As a creative, I have so many ideas for what I want to create, and I’m equally excited about all of them. It’s overwhelming to tackle so many projects simultaneously!
I had a great Strategy Session with Alisa where we laid out my ideas and worked through the steps. It’s easy to dream about the big-picture ideas; breaking down how to get there makes it feel more realistic and achievable. I have a game plan now!”

“I thought I had a clear picture of what I needed to advance my business, but my focus was becoming frayed.
Alisa carefully listened as I described my ideas, stressors, and deadlines, working with me to build a prioritization table and task list that better focuses in on my goals.
I appreciate her ability to truly listen while also posing questions and ideas that push me just a tad out of my comfort zone. We strategically planned the next steps for my business, and I am excited to get back on track.
THANK YOU for this clarity, Alisa!”

FAQs
I’ve already taken loads of courses/coaching, why do I need more?
You probably don’t. The challenge is that you’ve got all this knowledge and you haven’t put it into play yet. If you need the knowledge, I’ll help you get it. If you need to put what you already have to use, my group programs are all about doing the work, not about collecting more knowledge. People in my group programs get things done.
What’s it like to work with a coach?
As your coach, I keep your goals centered, even when you get distracted by shiny squirrels. Especially then! I hold your big picture for you, and make it easier to get your day-to-day work done. And I regularly bring you back to the big picture so you don’t lose direction. I also teach you the skills you need to do your job well.
Is it worth it to get a business coach?
It depends very much on what you need. Some people may need a simple conversation each month to ensure they’re on track, others may need a weekly touch point to get input and solve problems, and others may need more personalized guidance to build the business they want.
Most coaches offer services at different price points. If you’re not sure if they’re a good fit for you, most coaches also offer free consults. Have a conversation and see if you like them. If you feel uncomfortable, or if they pressure you to purchase right away, they’re not the right person for you.
If you’re doing fine and don’t need support on your journey, you don’t need a coach!
I don’t think I’m ready for a coach
If you feel this way because you’re in the early stages of figuring out your art business and aren’t sure where you’re headed yet, this is the perfect time to have a conversation with a strategist like me. A Strategy Session may help identify your direction. That could be all you need to keep going. You may also benefit from structure and a supportive network. The best way to find out is to book your Strategy Session so we can have a conversation!
