What to Expect

Considered by many the most famous book on creative practice, The Artist’s Way, by Julia Cameron, has guided millions of artists and creatives since its publication. The journey is even more powerful when done in community.

This 12-week guided experience will help supercharge your creative practice, break through blocks and reconnect with your artistic flow. With the support of like-minded creatives, you'll turn your creative dreams into a sustainable and enjoyable reality.

❋ In Person Day Retreat

A powerful kickoff event to immerse yourself in creative exercises, set intentions and connect with fellow creatives.

❋ 12 Weeks of Guided Exploration

Fortnightly Zoom sessions, weekly prompts, discussions and check-ins as we move through The Artist’s Way together.

❋ Experienced Facilitation

Led by an experienced creative mentor & artist who understands how to hold space and encourage participation.

❋ Supportive Community

A private Whatsapp group for sharing insights, challenges and wins to keep you motivated.

  • “Something I took away from the course was analysing fears that were keeping me from reaching my goals. I now feel a renewed sense of confidence and trust in the decisions I am making as a songwriter and producer, working towards finishing my 4th album.”

  • "A creative journey with Jess would leave you inspired with new ideas and energised to continue on your artist journey in life, with her insightful and gentle feedback that encourages you to grow and discover more of your potential as an artist."

  • "The journey provided much needed support with processing the blocks around believing in myself and in my creative work. Following the course helped with structure, and looking over it weekly with everyone was important too because we all got to learn from each other's experiences. "

Why Work With Me?

With over a decade of experience supporting artists, creative professionals and small businesses, I work at the intersection of art, business and wellbeing.

I’ve completed The Artist’s Way four times since 2021, each time leading to significant life changes, such as:

  • Transitioning out of a decade-long, full-time business career to pursue my music project; writing, producing, releasing and performing original work

  • Launching the Creative Wellbeing podcast, 1:1 mentoring and workshops.

  • Starting solo travel, building multiple income streams, and designing a life of freedom

I’ve witnessed firsthand how The Artist’s Way can unlock new possibilities and it's an honour to now guide others through this transformative process. My role is to hold space for your expansion, helping you discover your unique gifts, strengths and creative voice in a supportive community.

Past participants and mentees have gone on to produce and release their creative projects, transition into more aligned paid work, set up exciting collaborations, and feel an overall sense of satisfaction in their creative output.

Moving Through The Artist’s Way

❋ THE DAY RETREAT

Our journey will begin with an immersive day retreat, either in person in Sydney or online.

Arrive mid-morning to a peaceful, intentional space, where you’ll be greeted with a grounding ritual to invite deep presence and relaxation.

From there, we’ll set intentions, explore the Basic Principles of The Artist’s Way and connect with our group. We’ll share a nourishing lunch (in person only), before an afternoon of collage visioning, guided meditation and reflective journaling.

You’ll leave feeling recharged, inspired and ready to embark on this creative journey.

❋ THE 12- WEEK JOURNEY

The Artist’s Way is structured into 12 weekly chapters, each with readings (or listening) and creative exercises. While you can move at your own pace, we’ll follow the book’s recommendations to get the most out of the experience.

Each week, you'll engage in core creative practices like Morning PagesArtist Dates, and reflective exercises to deepen your connection with your creativity. We’ll meet fortnightly on Zoom for group discussions, insights, and support, with ongoing check-ins via WhatsApp for motivation and accountability.

Your time commitment will be rewarding and transformative! You will move through any obstacles causing uncertainty and tentativeness, to be creating from clarity, enjoyment and confidence by the end of the course.

“No matter what your age or your life path, whether making art is your career or your hobby or your dream, it is not too late or too egotistical or too selfish or too silly to work on your creativity.”
