David K.

From Lifetime Procrastinator to Creative Producer

David had spent decades talking about the creative project he wanted to launch. Despite having expertise, ideas, and even preliminary work completed, something always stopped him from moving forward. At 47, he worried his opportunity had passed.

    • Pattern of starting strong but abandoning projects within weeks

    • Perfectionism that made sharing work feel impossible

    • Deep-seated imposter syndrome despite objective qualifications

    • Fear of public judgment amplified by social media

    • Financial concerns about investing in his creative work

  • We focused on our Creation Protocol with heavy emphasis on:

    1. Identity-level work to separate self-worth from creative output

    2. Minimum Viable Progress methodology (tiny but consistent steps)

    3. Strategic accountability with external deadlines and commitments

    4. Exposure therapy for sharing imperfect work

    5. Financial sustainability planning alongside creative work

    • Successfully launched his project after just 60 days of coaching

    • Built a growing audience of over 5,000 engaged followers

    • Completed more creative work in 3 months than the previous 3 years

    • Developed a sustainable creation schedule that works with his energy

    • Secured his first paid opportunities within the field

After decades of 'someday,' I finally broke through the wall of fear and self-doubt that kept me stuck. What surprised me most wasn't just finishing my project—it was discovering that the perfectionism I thought protected my work was actually killing it. Now I create consistently, connect with an audience that values my work, and finally feel aligned with the person I always wanted to be.
