It’s a highly interactive program with weekly masterclass-chats, projects and individualized coaching available in the chats.

3. HARNESS YOUR MUSE Mentorship Program

HARNESS YOUR MUSE is a year-long application-only mentorship and mastermind group.

This program includes a the highest level of coaching and mentorship you can get in the Academy, with group focus sessions,  in-person retreats and project-completion coaching .

Harness Your Muse is usually used as a project-completion program.  It’s not based on your technical ability, but on your committment to  your dream project.  Some people enter with a very clear view of their project, others enter with a strong sense of their project and we work to clarify that sense and then create the steps to achieve it.

If you’re interested but not sure if this program is right for you, fill out the application anyway (the application itself will give you some clarity) and include your questions about whether it’s right for you.
