COURSE: Succeed & Enjoy It!

A Course for Performing Artists

People will tell you that a career as an artist is competitive, unstable, and difficult - that you need a thick skin - but those are vague and ultimately not helpful comments. This 2-hour course will help set you up for success and enjoyment by offering practical and timeless advice and strategies gleaned from 30+ years of personal and observed experience in the field. Get started on the right foot, or course-correct if you're unhappy or stuck.


This course is ideal for:

  • Career-minded pre-professionals
  • Students
  • Early-career professionals
  • Mid-career professionals in need of a fresh perspective
  • The career-curious


What we'll cover:

Being intentional about what you can control.

It may feel like so much is out of your control, but you have agency in more and different ways than you might realize.


Learn how to get specific and intentional.

Building a constructive relationship to what you can't.

Learn to cultivate the long-term and holistic perspective needed to deal with the chaos.

Enjoying yourself.


This is your life! It has to be good. Learn the perspective needed to be unshakeable through the quakes and to ground yourself in a sense of self-worth that isn't attached to outward success indicators.
