The Portal

The Artist’s Way Portal is your guide through a transformative 12-week journey of reconnecting with your desires and authentic self. This is a safe space where we will learn to name our fears, release perfectionism, and celebrate the joy of progress. Together, we’ll build new neural pathways that support your personal truth. This is a spiritual experience and a profound undertaking.

In our group, we’ll explore weekly themes, check in on our progress, and engage with the tasks at hand. This space will also help us regulate our emotions and create personal symbols that resonate beyond the portal and into our everyday lives. We’ll meet twice a week for 45-60 minutes to accommodate different schedules.

Ultimately, The Portal is about supporting your creative awakening. It holds you accountable, normalizes the struggles we all face, and fosters a deep sense of community.

You Don't Have to Be an Artist

You don’t need to identify as an artist—or even want to be one—to benefit from this experience. It’s about unlocking your power to create the life you desire and making decisions that empower you. We are all creators in our own lives, and this process helps you tap into that potential.

Together, we will unblock, unlock, and decode the stories and yearnings within us through daily Morning Pages, weekly tasks, and artist dates—plus the invaluable support of one another.

The Experience

What to Expect
Beyond developing a close-knit community (the highlight of this journey), you’ll gain practical tools to dive deep into your thoughts, actions, and narratives. In a world that often disconnects us from our true selves, this revolutionary work will help you uncover what you truly want and how to make your life feel vibrant and fulfilling.

We will eradicate limiting beliefs, confront the inner voices that hold us back, and celebrate progress over perfection. You’ll be lovingly witnessed by a community of fellow participants who are on the same path.

I like to think of this as a period of dating myself. During these weeks, I commit to prioritizing my own care and to exploring my dreams, fears, and blockages. It’s a genuine honor to guide this work alongside so many inspiring individuals. Having led hundreds through this course over the past three years, I’ve witnessed the unique journeys that unfold, each one filling my heart with joy. As you allow your authentic self to explore life, you give permission to others to do the same. We walk each other home, creating a space where we can meander and embark on little side quests together.

Communication and Connection

We’ll have a WhatsApp group to connect outside of social media, where you can share experiences and foster connections grounded in our shared work. The beauty of these portals is that we all engage in revealing our most authentic selves, witnessing and being witnessed in the process. It can be messy, beautiful, forgiving, and tender.

All meetings will be held on Zoom, and for privacy reasons, they will not be recorded. This is my tenth time leading a group through this journey, and with each iteration, I’ve refined my approach to facilitating and supporting your needs. Whether you’re returning or trying this for the first time, everyone is welcome in the portal. It’s not about perfection or synchronizing our journeys; it’s about surrendering to the flow and supporting each other wherever we are.

The Process

Every Sunday evening and Monday morning for 12 weeks, we’ll check in on the work we did the previous week and prepare for the upcoming one. This isn’t about strict schedules; it’s an intimate process that often feels like self-therapy. We need time to integrate, evaluate, feel, and ruminate—and that’s what our time together is for. Sometimes, just being present with one another is all you need.

Each week, you’ll receive a Zoom link and a reminder for the upcoming meeting to help combat the “out of sight, out of mind” tendency we all experience. It’s okay if you can’t make every meeting; the goal is to prioritize what you’re showing up for and create pathways for easier accountability. You’ll always be welcomed back without judgment.

Ultimately, we’ll learn how to hold ourselves accountable for what matters to us. You’ll discover what it means to be devoted to your values and how aligning with them transforms your life.

Important Note: There will be no late sign-ups for this program. The cut-off date is Saturday, January 4th. The evening before our first meeting, you’ll receive a link to sign up for the online portal, where you’ll access all the tools you need: The Artist's Way PDF, a calendar, a bingo sheet, a toolbox, and more. You’ll only need to secure a journal and pen; if you’d like a physical copy of the book, you can acquire that separately.

Pricing

I offer this at Sliding Scale to make it accessible while also recognizing the work that goes into something like this. It takes an immense amount of devotion to show up in the work while leading others through it, as well as planning and distributing information and creating content for the Portal.

The pricing has shifted as the course has developed, and this also accounts for you being able to receive a free PDF of the book vs having to buy it. I ask you to kindly sit and see what is truly feasible for you in this offering, what 12 weeks of guided meetings, community support, and activities is worth and also what this transformation is equally worth.
