Why I Fired Every Coach I Ever Hired (Even the Brilliant Ones)
I’ve worked with some incredible coaches. Brilliant minds. Experts in their fields. People who genuinely wanted to help me succeed.
And I fired every single one of them.
Not because they weren’t talented. Not because their strategies didn’t work. But because the creative spirit does not thrive within rigid systems.
The world of business is full of rules:
📌 Nail down your niche.
📌 Follow a proven framework.
📌 Stick to the step-by-step process.
📌 Focus on ROI, efficiency, and scalability.
And while these strategies might work for some, they often suffocate the very essence of creativity.
The truth is, creative entrepreneurs are different. We don’t follow straight paths. We are here to explore, to innovate, to bring into form what does not yet exist. And forcing ourselves into boxes that weren’t built for us? That’s a recipe for frustration, burnout, and creative stagnation.
The Problem with “Business as Usual” for Creatives
For years, I believed I had to “fix” the way I operated in business.
I thought my fluidity, my multidimensional interests, and my deep desire to create outside the lines were flaws—things that needed to be disciplined and refined in order to be “successful.”
So, I hired business coaches.
And every time, I found myself hearing the same advice:
🔹 “You need to get more focused.”
🔹 “You have to choose ONE thing and stick to it.”
🔹 “You’re not being strategic enough.”
🔹 “You have a scarcity mindset.”
The buzzwords changed, but the message was the same: I wasn’t doing it right.
But then I asked myself: Who said this was the only way?
Because here’s what I know to be true:
✨ Creativity thrives on exploration.
✨ Artists and visionaries are meant to play outside the lines.
✨ Rigid systems may create businesses, but they don’t create movements.
The traditional business world wasn’t built for creatives—it was built for efficiency, predictability, and control. But we are not here to repeat what’s been done before. We are here to build what does not yet exist.
What If There Was Another Way?
I was asked recently about my Private Mentorship.
And honestly? It’s difficult to explain—because it’s not a framework. It’s not a one-size-fits-all strategy. It’s not a paint-by-numbers business model.
It’s a bespoke journey designed to support creatives in bringing their truest work into the world.
I call it HEARTSCAPING.
It’s not something I pulled from a book. I didn’t adapt it from another industry or regurgitate someone else’s strategy. I developed it from the perspective of an artist, not a business owner.
Because here’s the thing:
We don’t need more templated success formulas. We need more spaces that honor the creative spirit.
Your Path Isn’t Supposed to Look Like Anyone Else’s
If you’ve ever felt like traditional business strategies don’t fit you… you are not broken. You are not “doing it wrong.” You are simply here to do it differently.
🔥 So let’s build differently.
🔥 Let’s create from alignment, not obligation.
🔥 Let’s bring to life the ideas that feel alive, not just the ones that “make sense.”
We all have a part to play in crafting the world as we desire it to be. And each of our paths is uniquely designed for us.
You are a powerful creator. Don’t let anyone make you feel otherwise. ✨
Ready to Create from Soul Instead of Strategy?
If you’re tired of forcing yourself into rigid systems that don’t fit… if you’re ready to build something that feels alive, aligned, and fully YOU… I invite you to explore my Heartscaping methodology- I use it in every one of my programs, events or private mentoring.
