Release the Kracken! Cycle 28 is OPEN for enrollment


What it is:

The Audacity Project is an 8 week guided process, entirely online, to equip aerialists, artists, and creative entrepreneurs with the tools necessary to be working professionals. Translation: to get your shit together. To finally create an online portfolio that you love, and that is fabulous enough to stand up for you. To claim your place in your world. To pursue your creative practice with intention, integrity, a full heart, all the necessary materials, and clarity on what you actually want to be doing with your life. Also, how much to charge for it.

Then do that. TAP is a course in creative and professional development, and has been tried and tested with outstanding results since 2017.

When it is:

Start: March 10th, 2025

End: May 9th, 2025

Break week (no class or meetings): April 7-11th. Use this week to catch up on your work, or take all the naps.

Who it's for:

  • Freelance artists of all flavors- aerialists, performers, designers...CREATIVES
  • People who already have jobs they love, but still want to pursue their creative practice in an intentional, tangible way
  • Coaches who have neglected their own artistic practice and WANT IT BACK
  • Established artists who are ready to pivot their career focus

Not sure if this is for you? I offer short, easy consult calls on Tuesday and Thursday of this week. I only want folks in there who can benefit from the program, and I'll be very happy to tell you truly if I think it's a good fit for you right now. If I don't think I'm the right guide for you, I'll be happy to point you in another direction.

What you get:

  • UNLIMITED 1:1 support throughout the 8 weeks via WhatsApp. No one ever believes me but this is true. Truly. Use it.
  • 8 weeks of intensive guided work according to YOUR goals and desires, with specific, detailed instructions.
  • Targeted weekly assignments through Teachable: lectures, worksheets, and no-nonsense tasks to get your shit together. Pinpoint exactly where you want to go, who you need to talk to to go there, how to talk to them, and how much to charge for it. BOOM.
  • Two 1:1 video calls with me (there is an option to purchase additional 1:1s)
  • Weekly group classes via Zoom with Q & A and additional insights. Classes take place Tuesdays at 2pm EST
  • A private Facebook group comprised totally of people who have been through the program or are going through it with you. This is an excellent, supportive, international resource of pretty damn amazing humans.
  • Lifetime access to these materials, and the alumni perk of auditing future cycles whenever you wish.
  • Assurance that this program has been tried and tested since 2017, with excellent results. It works.

EARLY ACTION BONUS! As a token of welcome and gratitude, anyone who enrolls in the 1st 24 hours will get lifetime access to a short, action-packed workshop called Set the Stage, designed to help you prepare to get all the meat off the bones of any intensive process, including The Audacity Project.

What you walk away with:

  • Build your complete promo kit including photos, video, a well-written strategically built biography, and a polished resume
  • Learn how to USE that promo kit to get where you want to go
  • Clarity on what you ACTUALLY want to be doing with your creative practice
  • Structures, exact scripts, and methods for creating opportunities, pursuing contacts, and a black-and-white "to-do" list for growing your creative empire
  • Strategies around pricing, how to negotiate and talk about money, and building packages
  • Templates and examples for contracts, invoices, tech riders, gig calculators, and sample offering PDFs
  • A supportive, beautiful online community of your peers
  • Tools and support for navigating all the internal landscapes that arise on this path, including but not limited to Imposter Syndrome. I will be there the whole time, and I've got your back.

How to enroll:

You can book a call with me here or click the links on this page to enroll directly. The investment is $1,097 monies if paid up front. Please be able to pay for the program without harming your quality of life.

The Audacity Project is a map, for those who feel like their wandering around in the dark with their hands out. There's no real career path for artists, we have to carve one out in the jungle.

The Audacity Project wants to hand you a machete.

Your voice is completely unique. The things you have to say cannot be said by anyone else. It is my earnest belief that the employment of your voice is imperative. This cycle is for those who are ready to learn how to speak up and take what they have to say seriously in their creative work.

I made the Audacity Project for people who are ready to get their shit together and claim their place in their world.

We begin our work in one week. Enrollment will CLOSE this Friday, at 11:59pm EST.

And don't forget, early action-takers will get free lifetime access to Set the Stage to help them get every bit of juice out of the watermelon. Or some other metaphor that's better. :) Anyone enrolling in the first 24 hours will get this bonus, with my gratitude for already being Audacious AF.

For wherever you are in your own process, I salute you. DON'T GO BACK TO SLEEP.
