Life changing practices for every artist. This continuing mentorship course is designed for artists of all levels seeking depth, structure, and growth—new content is available each month so you can join in as a new student and keep going the next month if you wish! Each weekly session incorporates reflective inquiry, critical dialogue, and practical strategies for strengthening both artistic development and awakening inner knowing.
