SECOND ACT: Creatives Coaching
”There is a difference between being an artist, and being paid to do art.”
Being an Artist of any kind is HARD! Being internally compelled to create while externally compelled to also pay the rent is to be in a constant state of anxiety and compartmentalization. Sometimes it distracts from the art, even if it also has the ability to motivate us at times. For many our heads are down, hyper focused on “making it,” and getting to a place where we can quit our side jobs and focus on creation. However, if the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes have taught us anything, it is that even the working artist often lacks work stability and consistency.
For many years I watched actors, and writers, and dancers, etc, go through the seasonal cycles of trying to find work, and new representation, all while their relationships, bank accounts, and emotional health suffered. So few took the time to ask themselves if this lifestyle was what they still wanted. So few knew how to move forward when they realized it wasn’t.
So the The question is how can we create a more balanced life while pursuing our creativity, and if we are ready for a more drastic change, how the heck do we transition forward?!
☀️Are you an artist struggling to create a balance in your life between your artistic endeavors and everything else?
☀️Are you seeking clarity on what role and priority your art plays and what role you want it to play?
☀️Do you even still want to stay on the artist path? And if so, are you looking for a way to create greater balance so you don’t have to sacrifice anything to do so?
We all deserve to feel financially stable, to have relationships, and vacations, and all of the things that feed our art, even if we aren’t getting paid for our art. This offering was created with all of you artists in mind. Your peace is my joy, and you deserve both!
