A PLACE TO 
FLOURISH

Have you begun to create a secondary creative career that you hope to expand to make money, create impact, seed joy or drive connection?  


Have you always identified as a dual careerist, an Ampersand, or are you starting to?

You've come to the right place.

Welcome to the Cohort. 

You are not alone in your desire to have or need to have both a primary career (a leg to stand on, so to speak) and a creative career. And, we know it is possible to do both. 

Join our community to be with others who are figuring it out, have figured it out, and want to do it together. 

This community is filled with innovators like you who believe that they can unlock their creative potential, take risks on big projects, and reach new and bigger forms of flourishing. 

Maybe you are career switching, career leaping, or career pivoting. Maybe you just want to be your whole self. Maybe you don't know yet. That's okay, we've been there too.

We help you build your creative career in concert with your primary one.

WE BUILT THIS FOR YOU
