YOU CAN MAKE ALMOST ANYTHING WORK.
That doesn't mean you have to.
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO WORK?
That's what we work on here.
CREATIVE ADVISORY FOR THE WOMAN BEHIND ALL OF IT

YOU NEED SOMEONE WHO CAN PLAY IN THE GAPS.
Convenient as it would be, you know life doesn't stay tucked into tidy compartments.
You've got smart people you trust for the various moving parts + pieces:
Your bestie.
Your partner.
Your therapist.
Your team.
But sometimes you just need to drop the filter and lay out ALL the pieces with someone who isn't on your payroll, can tell you what she (honestly) thinks, won't hold a grudge, and can keep up as you jump from:
the offer you've outgrown to
pickup logistics to
the upcoming team retreat to
that reel you saved this morning.

PLAYING IN THE GAPS IS MY SPECIALITY.
Copy was just the first place people paid me to do it.
I can follow the thread (even when there are six of them). 🪡
I catch what's hard to see from the inside and hand it back in a form you can use.
Usually wrapped in at LEAST one colorful mixed metaphor.
No need to check half your life at the door.
We sort through all the relevant pieces till you can tell what you actually think.
And what (if anything) you want to do about it.
The offer still sells.
Yet you keep finding reasons not to sell it again.
Nobody on the team is the bad guy.
Something still has to change.
The opportunity is objectively good.
You still haven't said yes.
You could pull off all three ideas.
That's not the issue.
No crisis or obviously wrong answer.
But plenty of tradeoffs with real time, energy, and money attached.
"I HAVE PEOPLE. I HAVE CHOPS. I JUST DON'T KNOW WHICH NITTY GRITTY TO GO FOR."
exactly.
REAL EXPERTISE.
REAL BUSINESS.
REAL LIFE.
REAL STAKES.
You’re self-aware, resourceful, opinionated (hilarious, ridiculously good-looking, etc. etc.).
You know you don’t need more strategies, opinions, or information for this part.
You can DIY a lot. An outside perspective on your own storyline isn’t one of those things.
YOU'RE JUST A LITTLE TOO CLOSE TO THE PLOT.
And almost everyone you’d normally ask is a recurring character in the storyline with their own feelings, loyalties, and preferred endings.
I don't enter the chat rooting for a particular ending.
I'm interested in yours, based on:
WHO YOU ARE NOW
WHAT YOU HONESTLY WANT
WHAT YOU'RE CURRENTLY WILLING + ABLE TO DO ABOUT IT
Plot twists welcome, not required. Terms subject to change.
Sometimes one good conversation is all you need.
Other things call for a standing appointment.
Gimme a little context and let's see what makes the most sense.
You're usually the one trusted to hold all the context.
Here you get another adult brain to help hold + track it with you.
(It's me! I've got the other adult brain.)
Time with me = time with YOU.
Now you do. 🪄
