How do you embody creative aliveness?
At Awakening Creatives, we coach…
…people who are waking up.
People who can no longer ignore what they’re seeing about the world, about power, about injustice, about the ways we’ve been taught to live and work. People who feel both activated and sometimes unsure how to move.
Many people arrive here in a liminal space:
-
Aware that the old ways no longer fit
-
Grieving what’s broken or harmful
-
Carrying big visions without a clear path
-
Creatively alive but scattered, overwhelmed, or frozen
-
Longing for work and ways of living that feel honest, humane, and meaningful
This is a place for those transitioning to a more creatively alive version of yourself,
traversing between paradigms, and preparing to make bold moves.
When you can sense a different world is possible, and are seeking to midwife it into form, you might need a creative doula in your corner.
What coaching looks like here
Coaching at Awakening Creatives is a relational, creative, and identity-aware process that supports you to untangle what’s emerging, reconnect with your creative life force, and find grounded ways to move toward the world you’re dreaming.
Rather than rushing you into action or answers, we slow down enough to listen to:
-
What your body is telling you (somatic approach)
-
The questions underneath your urgency
-
The creativity that’s trying to lead (honoring your innate wisdom)
-
The places where inherited labels, systems, expectations, or roles are constraining you (deconstructing unhelpful constructs)
This work honors that awakening often comes with confusion, anger, grief, and tenderness and not just inspiration.
You don’t need to have a polished vision or a five-year plan.
You don’t need to know whether you’re an “activist,” a “leader,” or a “creative.”
You just need to be willing to stay present with what’s becoming and open to possibilities
Who this space is for
People are often drawn to this work when they are:
-
Awakening to social, political, or ecological injustice or already engaged in values-driven work
-
Questioning capitalism, cisheteropatriarchy, white supremacy, or extractive systems
-
Understand themselves as trying to do something "different" or "outside" of the current status quo
-
Grappling with how identity, power, and responsibility show up in their lives
-
Feeling called to contribute, but unsure how or where
-
Sensing that creativity must play a role in imagining something different
-
Holding big, tender visions without a grounded container
Many folks here identify as creatives, visionaries, facilitators, cultural workers, organizers, or values-driven community leaders.
Others are simply people who can no longer live or work as if the world is fine.
Queer, trans, and gender-expansive people are explicitly welcome here.
BIPOC, neurodivergent, disabled, fat, and immigrant experiences are honored here.
So are those unlearning dominant narratives and learning to listen more deeply.
How we work together
This coaching approach is:
-
Non-pathologizing — you are not broken for feeling this way
-
Trauma-responsive and neurodiversity-aware — we work with capacity and care
-
Identity-aware — we name how culture, power, and history shape your experience
-
Creativity-led — imagination is not extra; it’s essential - dreams may enter stage left
-
Collaborative & Grounded — client-led, coach-supported insight is gently translated into real, doable action
Sessions may include reflective conversation, creative inquiry, visualization, somatic awareness, meaning-making, and practical planning. The shape of the work evolves as we learn what supports you best.
At its heart, this is about midwifing new ways of being—in yourself, in your work, and in the worlds you’re helping to bring forth.
What this work makes possible
Over time, coaching can support you to:
-
move from overwhelm into orientation
-
right-size big visions into livable paths
-
reclaim creativity as a source of guidance
-
develop discernment about where your energy belongs
-
act without burning yourself out or hardening your heart
-
build a life and practice aligned with your values, not just your skills
Not by bypassing what’s hard—but by learning how to stay with it and move.

FAQ
What coaching is:
Coaching is a collaborative container for personal exploration whereby you are encouraged to explore your dreams, and transform your thoughts, beliefs and relationship to your body towards inspired actions. We work together to create an actionable plan that helps you achieve your vision. The role of the coach to provide a space for you to gain a deeper awareness, support, tools, and a safe space to explore your goals, visions, strengths, and challenges with sensitivity to your unique expression of culture, spirituality, neurodivergence, etc.

Why coaching?
Coaching can completely transform the way that you think and feel about yourself and your dreams, and support you to take action on the things you really want to embody in your life.
People sometimes come to coaching after therapy, or in tandem with a therapeutic process when you need support through the process of change. Coaching is a stand in when other mentorships, care providers, family members or supervisors are either not available or not within the scope of your needs. With Liberty's specialized training and extensive breadth of skills and experience, we can address long-standing issues, thought patterns, habits and activate dreams for your life that other practices or resources have failed to address.

What is Awakening Creatives' coaching methodology and how is this style of coaching different than others?
The Awakening Creatives Coaching Methodology is a signature weaving of eclectic modalities customized to your needs. We mix holistic coaching (honoring that all areas of life are interconnected), transformational coaching (we attend to deep causes, not surface band-aids), leadership coaching (how you show up in relationship to power), and coaching which honors the innate creative life force within each person and group. This methodology honors the cycles and rhythms of nature within us and without and is intended to transform thoughts and beliefs to align with your truest desires and genius, making is easier to take action and experience self-defined success.
This approach is trauma-responsive, neurodiversity aware (currently training in ADHD sensitivity), non-pathologizing (holding that you are already whole), exploratory and culturally sensitive. We also attend to the body and body sensations as an important source of wisdom. The coaching relationship evolves as we learn more about your process, your needs, and we give each other feedback about what's working and what's not.
This process is informed by Liberty's work in liberatory community depth psychology, which operates from an awareness of individual and collective trauma and systemic oppression. This means that in addition to finding what personal patterns and beliefs may impact your progress, we are careful to locate responsibility and barriers within the systems and cultures we operate within. Liberty also incorporates wisdom of natural cycles and seasons, as well as psychosomatic practices that engage your awareness in your body and real-time experience through your sensations.
A liberatory community depth approach, which is informed by indigenous and ecopsychologies, allows your individual experience to come fully into the room, including knowledge that might otherwise be seen as superfluous in a Western context, such as dreams, divinatory practices, altered state experiences and interactions with the spirit and the divine. With this perspective in mind, we may choose to explore exercises that bring the wisdom of dreams, ancestors, nature and spirituality into the session. The direction of our sessions are based on your own needs, curiosities and desires.

What can I expect from the coaching experience?
Liberty is aware of how variable and unreliable the coaching industry is at this time. Therefore, Liberty strives to be as transparent and collaborative as possible in their approach, so that you can build trust in the process and relax into your transformation. Trust and good communication are the foundations for an excellent coaching relationship.
If you choose to have a free 30-minute connection call, you may ask any questions regarding the process of registration, scheduling and coaching itself. In most cases (excluding some special offers), after purchasing your session(s), you will receive an email with details for how to engage with the perks of your coaching offer. Don't worry, though. If you do not understand how to access something, Liberty is available by text and email to support you through the process. That's one of the awesome things about coaching with Liberty. You don't just get a few sessions. You get accompaniment through your process, so you can move through issues to take action without getting hung up on small things.
1-on-1 sessions are 60-75 minutes long (we build in some flexibility), and start by reviewing what action you have taken, what challenges you faced and what success you are celebrating. Then, we choose a goal for the session based on where you are, and proceed to dive into the issue that is most important to you that week. After addressing the issue through any number of coaching tools (coaching conversations, guided visualizations, creative exercises, movement, breathing, etc.), we will collaborate to design actions for you to take. You will always be in control of the process and have choice in how you take action. That also means that you are responsible for taking action and creating your own success.
Do you offer payment plans or discounts?
We strive to embody the value of equitable business practices, and therefore set our prices and processes to achieve that.
We know that not everyone can afford to pay the cost of coaching up front. If this is the situation you are in, please book a free call to discuss your options.
