Let the Artist Lead
get out of your own way
and create
Creating is supposed to be hard.
If you think it's supposed to feel joyful all the time, you'll give up on day two.
I help you stand your ground until you can weather the phases of creation with confidence and courage.
“Elena’s blend of coaching and music is mind-blowing. The space she creates is comforting, intuitive, and unlike anything I’ve experienced.”
Priyanka Venkataraman, MD
Most people who feel called to create something aren’t blocked because they lack talent or ideas.
They're blocked because they can't get out of their own way.
You know you need to create something: the business, the book, the artwork, the project that is more existential necessity than lifestyle choice or hobby.
The kind of thing that will leave a gaping hole in your soul if you don’t build it.
Maybe you don’t even know what it is yet.
That doesn’t mean you can’t start.
“It felt like a remembering. A reconnection to something ancient and alive inside me.”
Donna Wallace McFadden
You don’t have a problem with discipline or structure.
You’ve accumulated mountains of laurels.
And yet, when you begin to create:
You receive clear guidance
and then immediately doubt it.
You compare yourself
unfairly to others who have enjoyed wild success
You clench up
when you know you should trust the process.
Joy is elusive
and it feels like you're wasting a precious opportunity.
You overthink
every move and replay every decision.
You’ve read the books,
taken the training, and still can't seem to let go.
No matter how much you know, the thinking mind won’t stand down.
If that sounds familiar, you’re in the right place.
“The cello allowed me to dive more deeply than any meditation ever has.”
Bethany Harvey
“The cello and prompts took me into a meditative depth I didn’t know I could reach.”
