WHEN YOU NEED IT

A one-on-one offering to support your creative practice—whether you need a reset, a check-in, or a deep conversation to help you find your way forward.


Come with questions, tangles, dreams, projects, or just a hunch that
it’s time to shine some light on what matters.

THE WHY

Creating on your own

doesn’t mean you have to be alone.

So many of us make our work in solitude—but that doesn’t erase the need for a witness, a thought partner, or someone to say, “I see you. Keep going.”

And yet, finding that kind of support isn’t easy. So much of what’s out there assumes the possibility of a perfect life—free of identity-based barriers or creative wounds. But in truth, creative practices are shaped by all of those things—and by systems that weren’t built with us in mind.

Shine Sessions offer a flexible space for clarity and care, reflection and resources. A place to bring what’s swirling in your head out into the light and be met with insight and compassion.

Because creativity isn’t one-size-fits-all. It’s a living relationship with yourself—one that deserves to be nourished and witnessed.

That’s the heart of this offering: support that’s liberatory, real, and tailored to what’s needed, when it’s needed.

WHO’S IT FOR

Shine Sessions might be for you if…

You’re a woman or non-binary creator—figuring it out as you go, like the rest of us.

You’re stuck, stalled, or tangled—and need a gentle nudge, a little boost, or someone to help unknot the spaghetti in your brain.

You long to talk about your creative practice in the context of your real life—not some imaginary version with endless time, energy, and no laundry.

You’re navigating things like perfectionism or burnout—and you want to meet those tender places with compassion, not blame.

You want support that’s gentle but clear-eyed—offered by someone who gets it and wants nothing more than to life you up.

You’re curious about an anti-oppressive approach that names he real culprits (spoiler: it’s not you) and helps you return to what feels true.

You want to move at a pace that honours your energy—not the speed of capitalism, hustle culture, or those productivity dudes (you know the ones).

You’re craving clarity, affirmation, acknowledgment, doable next steps—or just a place to think out loud with someone

You believe in creativity, even if you’re not always sure how to believe in yourself. Still, you’re trying. And that matters. A lot.

    You’ll hear back from me within two working days.

I’ll offer reflection, gentle guidance, and any resources that feel supportive. You’ll leave feeling more resourced and less alone—with a sense of direction, a soft place to land, and maybe even a few practical tools or links to help you move forward.

The Feedback Session: starting at $135 CAD
