You Gave Your Creative Energy to Everyone Else.
Let’s Get It Back.
One-on-one creative coaching for women in transition who are done waiting for permission to make their own work.
Six weeks, one hour a week, with a working artist and meditation teacher.
No pitch. We’ll talk about where you are and whether this is a good fit.
You’re In the Right Place If:
Your kids are gone, or your marriage ended, or you retired, and the shape of your days is suddenly yours to decide
You have something you want to make — paintings, a book, music, a business — and you keep not making it
You've been the person who holds everyone else together, and you're not sure who you are outside that job
You've tried courses and books and none of it stuck, because what you actually needed was someone to keep you honest week to week
This isn't the right place if:
You want therapy or clinical mental health treatment. I'm not a licensed therapist and this isn't treatment. If that's what you need, I'll help you find it.
You want someone to make the work for you, or tell you what your work should be.
Where Creativity Gets Lost
You wake up with a heaviness you can't explain. Your days have lost their structure, and the freedom you thought you wanted feels more like drifting.
There's a nagging sense you failed somewhere. As a mother, as a professional, as a friend. Worst, that you failed yourself — that you handed over every ounce of your creative energy to other people and there's nothing left in the account.
And there's rage. Hot, sudden, inconvenient rage. You don't care why it's there. You want it to stop.
Meanwhile, guidance is hard to come by. Your friends are deep in their own dramas. Your partner doesn't get it. Your colleagues can't give you what you need.
Here's what I've learned in 30 years of this work: that rage and that heaviness aren't the problem. They're information. They point straight at the part of your life asking for attention. Most people spend enormous energy trying to get rid of them. The work is learning to listen instead — and on the other side of listening is a clarity about what to do next that no amount of thinking your way through will produce.
How We Work Together
Three things, in this order.
Befriending your Emotions
Emotions are just sensations. That sounds small, and it changes everything. When you can stay present with intensity instead of fleeing it, you stop carrying old experiences into new ones, and you stop making decisions from panic. This is the foundation. Everything else rests on it.
Taming your Mind
A simple meditation practice you'll actually do. Not an hour on a cushion at dawn. Enough to see the thinking patterns that keep running you, and enough distance to stop obeying them.
Unleashing Creative Inspiration
Once your mind isn't fighting itself, the creative material is right there. It always was. We build the structure — practice, schedule, accountability — that gets it out of you and into the world. You'll leave each session with specific homework, and I'll ask you about it the following week.
Why Me?
I'm a painter and an author. I show and sell my work, my landscapes are in several galleries and corporate collections, and I've published two books with a third launching in September 2026. I've also spent 30 years teaching meditation and guiding people through hard transitions, with a master's in Contemplative Psychology from Naropa and two decades designing and leading contemplative programs internationally.
That combination is the point. Most creative coaches haven't built a creative life. Most contemplative teachers can't help you get a body of work finished. I do both, every week, in my own studio.
I also know what it costs. I've rebuilt from scratch more than once.

Your work, a unique offering of healing and empowerment, your presence and wise guidance helped me to return "back home" to myself with a sense of clarity, strength and inspiration.
— Mary, London
-
I feel like I tuned in to the universe in a way I never have. Taking a step back and finding meaning in the simplest things was very transformative. I can see better and hear more clearly and feel so much more.
— Nadine, Chicago
-
This work is for those who want to dig deeper. Kim is a terrific knowledge source. I left in a stronger, healthier mental state than I came in.
— Nicole, Bangkok
-
I have been able to open myself up and not be afraid to let people see me for just me. I learned to find calmness inside, and to look outside the box to get a better understanding of myself.
— Alicia, Los Angeles
Included with the six-week package:
Yoga Nidra for Healing + Transformation
Yoga nidra is deep rest. You lie down, I talk, and you drop into a state between waking and sleeping where the ordinary defenses loosen. You don't have to concentrate, sit upright, or do anything correctly. For women who are exhausted and wired at the same time, it's often the first practice that actually lands.
I recorded these six meditations to move in sequence, one for each week we work together:
Grounding in the Present
Letting Go of the Past
Emotional Resilience
Finding Inner Sanctuary
Awakening Heart Wisdom
Embracing the Future
You'll get each one after the session it belongs with. Most people listen at night. They're yours to keep when we're done.

It's the best reason. Crisis is loud and it demands attention; being stuck is quiet, and it can go on for years without anyone noticing, including you. Most of my clients are functioning perfectly well and are painfully aware that something they care about isn't getting made. That's exactly the right time to start, and you don't have to earn this by suffering enough first.
-
You do not need to call yourself an artist to benefit from your creative energy. We are all creative beings and benefit from discovering our creative inspiration.
-
It is never too late. What else are you going to do with your life?
-
You do not have to do anything you don’t want. But in order to create something new, we need to upgrade our habits and routines. I will suggest practices—including meditation—for you to do, but it is up to you!
