The Creative Courage Circle
Creative courage isn’t about having no fear. It’s about recognising what’s been blocking your creative expression and choosing to create anyway, with support, structure and a community that sees your light.
What it is:
The Creative Courage Circle is an online community whose members are committed to authentic expression. It’s an ongoing group that supports writers, artists, creators and entrepreneurs to recognise their creative blocks, then embrace the value of their voice and witness the Creative Essence—the unique light—in others.
The Creative Courage Circle helps you:
See your creative blocks clearly for the first time
Develop the courage to create even when it’s imperfect
Take action on your creative projects with consistent support
Share your work with others and claim the uniqueness of your creative voice
Who it’s for:
The Creative Courage Circle is for you if:
You know you have something to express but keep holding back
You’re a writer with a project that never seems to get finished
You’re an artist, creator or entrepreneur who wants community and accountability
You’ve tried other courses or programmes, but find they haven’t provided the inner work that addresses what’s underneath your creative blocks
If you recognise yourself in any of the above and want to talk further about how we might work together, drop me a message here on Substack or book a no-cost 30 minute creative breakthrough call.
Because the cost of staying small is always greater than the risk of becoming whole.
What’s included:
A 45-minute onboarding call with me to set your intentions, followed by a start-of-the-month Inquiry Circle, which opens the month’s theme and sets your vision. This is where the work begins. From there, you’re in the full rhythm of the community.
6 Creativity Circles spaced throughout the month and organised at different times to best accommodate different time zones. These are spaces to turn up and be just how you are, to experiment, think or create in co-working sessions.
A Wisdom Circle: an end-of-the-month breakthrough session where members receive coaching support on issues or questions and/or want space to explore further an idea or a concept for what they’re creating.
Plus (optional and depending on availability) a Feedback Circle for members working on specific projects who want structured support from the community.

What’s next?
Wherever you are on your creative journey—whether you’re starting out with only a vague sense of where you’re going and what you need, whether you’re building a new creative practice or you’re an established creative wanting support with a new approach—there’s a strand that will support you moving forward with confidence and into action.
As your guide into creative courage, I’m here to help you transform those invisible blocks—the fear and shame that live beneath the surface—so you can express authentically and freely.
Here’s how I can support you:
Make an appointment for a virtual coffee (free). I hold 3-4 slots every month for a 20-minute chat so we can either get to know each other. Perfect if you’re curious about my work and what I do, and want to find out more.
Book a 30-minute Creative Breakthrough call (free) to gently uncover the fears or limiting beliefs sabotaging your creative expression and begin to implement ways to integrate them into your life and work.
Read my manifesto for creative courage (free). Follow my story in serial form about the core principles of my creativity, my journey into creative courage and why I founded Wordplay Coaching.
There are two options for working with me.
You can join the Creative Courage Circle outlined above, a community in which our members are committed to authentic expression. It’s an ongoing group that supports writers, artists, creators and entrepreneurs to recognise their creative blocks, then embrace the value of their voice and witness the Creative Essence—the unique light—in others.
For those ready for deep transformation, Creative Courage Mentoring pairs private 1:1 Creative Essence work with full membership of the Creative Courage Circle—transforming the core fears and patterns that have kept you stuck into fuel for your most authentic creative expression.
