The joy of being dedicated to something scary

If you’ve heard me talk about my group coaching program, The Original Impulse Atelier, you might have questions.

The Atelier could be great for you if you:

  • have a project you yearn to focus on – even finish!
  • can’t seem to make the time/space for it on your own
  • enjoy being part of a community of creatives dedicated to their projects
  • are ready, willing, and able to finally fall in love with your project.

writing promptsIf you’re like me, you feel a wave of excitement accompanied by fear at the thought of committing to your project. It makes sense – when we step up to do our creative work, we decide that our passion is more powerful than our fears and excuses. We decide YES! Now is the time to heed the call and commit to this thing that won’t leave us alone.

I’ll be working on my own project. Atelier members love how I am in it with them. I never come from a pedestal, expert mode, or teacher above anyone else. The way I see it, we are in the same river of creative adventure. I may be just a few paddle strokes ahead. I’ve spent years refining what works for me. Sure, I get stuck…but it takes less time for me to recover.

I also know that the feelings of joy and personal empowerment on the other side of the fears are worth all the angst. I love knowing that I can trust myself to follow through on projects that matter to me. I want this for you and everyone who wants to make things.

Atelier members love being in deep relationship with their project. If you are part of this group. finally, there will be no more guilt or avoidance. Just the pleasure of knowing you are honoring your creative impulse in a fun and effective way.

All the info is available here; just download the program guide for details.

Creative Success Stories

"Being coached by Cynthia highlighted my unrevealed gifts. Our time together has revolutionized the way I work and lead my companies.

Her wisdom about creativity and productivity has added value to every area of my life from personal health to creativity and generating wealth.

I would have never imagined that this powerhouse of a creative would help me grow, connect to my heart and improve my companies in so many areas. Cynthia’s coaching is like supercharging a normal engine; there is no comparison."

John Marsh
Founder, Marsh Collective

"For years, I struggled with this belief that I wasn't good enough, that I wasn't a real writer, that I wouldn't be able to follow through. Your coaching and support opened something in me that had gone dormant.

With your words in my ears and my heart finding new excitement, I pushed the words across the page. My first novel is complete. You, dear Cynthia, helped me lay the dominoes. I can’t thank you enough for the motivation, the inspiration, and the reminder that I was meant to write."

Tabetha Hedrick

"Cynthia has given me my writing voice. I can now say I am a writer. My newsletter readers tell me how much they love receiving it!

Cynthia has a great spark of life that just shines out. She engages in a way that encourages you to challenge yourself as a writer and is there to help pull you out if you get stuck or lost."

Ruth Dent
Artist

"Cynthia helped me drive a short story across the finish line. I recommend Cynthia if you want to learn about your own writing process in an experiential way and get practice on things like letting go of perfectionism for a greater goal."

Roseanne
Writer

"Cynthia helped me so much to develop a writing practice. I love her approach to combining creativity and action. It's gentle and effective and highly self compassionate."

Laila Atalah
Writer

"Because of my work with Cynthia, I have been able to embrace my artist's path and choose a lifestyle that truly speaks to my soul. Instead of trying to be and do everything, I now follow my true desires with courage, joy and serenity.

Cynthia is intuitive, down-to-earth, straightforward and honest. She can read between the lines, and she never lets me run away, give in and give up. Cynthia is a fabulous mentor and an amazing artist."
