What you get :
Two days and six hours of journaling prompts, community conversation, and a place to dream up the kind of year you want to have as an artist, writer, or small business owner.
A robust google sheets template with different tabs for project organization, idea generating, content calendar, and mapping out each quarter of the year - we will use this in the workshop as a tool together
Also an invitation to participate in Fieldwork which is the three month group creative advising container I will be hosting Feb 5 - April 30. This workshop is in many ways a pre cursor to the larger gathering but everyone is welcome here whether or not you want to continue on in a smaller and more intimate group.
WHO THIS IS FOR :
Artists and creative people who want to set intentions for the new year and find ways to weave in their creativity
Anyone wanting to dream into the year they want to see
People who like index cards and list making activities
You are wanting to actually complete projects and get things done this year!
This is for you if increasing your income is a goal, growing your audience, or wanting more intimate connection with your readers
QUESTIONS?
Q: Is this class fun or really serious?
A : This class is fun I have never opened a zoom room in my life and not had fun. AND unblocking whatever has been keeping you from organizing your work and marketing goals is serious business! We are going to add ease and fun to this serious business.
Q : Will I get rich after taking this class?
A : You might! That depends on your own relationship with earning, spending, and commitment to your work. Oh and also the many privileges you may or may not hold. Again, this class is about deepening your relationship with the back end and timelines of your work and projects. I find that when I am in this deep state of focus and reach people who are interested in my work - I do earn more money. And sometimes I do not and it is a total flop.
You do not need to have a business, an art practice, or even any idea what you want to write and talk about in order to take this class. And you DEFINITELY do not need to identify as a writer or artist or have a desire to write a lengthy newsletter or put art into the world. This will support you in having more clarity in how you talk about and share your work and bring it into the world on a timeline that works for you!

WHO IS TEACHING THIS CLASS
Consider this before you sign up - when signing up you are consenting to taking a class with a tornado person - This class is taught by Cody Cook-Parrott, an artist and writer, who has been self employed and teaching online classes since 2017.
Cody is not a therapist, mental health professional, trauma informed facilitator, or anything else that would give them credentials for talking about the brain and how it figures out how to plan a day
They are a hermit and a social person and many things and skilled at planning as a Gemini, Human Design Manifestor, Queer person, freak, and artist. They love to create fun and joyful containers for figuring out how to live in the world as an expert of nothing, a devotee to the mystery
Many of the lessons in this class are borrowed by and inspired by healing with ADHD, 12 step rooms, spiritual practice, The Artist’s Way, and more
See terms and services for all online class here
ENERGIES OF THE ZOOM ROOM :
Whether you are neurodivergent, ADHD, have a mood disorder, chronic pain, the list goes on - how much access we have to our relationship with overwhelm, distraction, and shutting down is dependent on many factors. It is important to remember I am facilitating as an artist, not as a therapist or someone trained within modalities of mental health. What this means is you'll have to take what you like and leave the rest! Not everything will work for every person, this container will, however, empower you to have the information to mold and fit to your specific needs and desires. It will also help you determine the difference between when you are just beating yourself up for not "doing something you said you would do - and shifting into a space of awe and devotion. This part might activate you - that's good : may the pushing back guide you closer to yourself. See you there!
A final note on the energy of the zoom room : This could be a small group, it could be a huge group, your ex might be there or your old neighbor. The mystery of digital spaces will invite us into our beautiful boundaries. Honor your physical and emotional needs and shift them throughout sessions : camera on / camera off. Participate in the chat exercises or don't. Face your camera to show us a plant the whole time. This is your experience! Many Blessings - Cody
