Your 90-Day Planning Session has officially begun!
To get the most out of our 60 minutes together, complete these three quick prep steps. Even 10-15 focused minutes will make a big difference.
Step 1: Name your 3-year Creative CEO vision
Before we plan the next 90 days, take a few minutes to look further ahead.
Do this:
- Grab a notebook or open a doc and spend 5-10 minutes answering these questions:Â
- In 3 years, what do you want your creative business to look like?
- What do you want it to be doing for you financially and creatively?
- Who are you as a Creative CEO in that version of your life?
- Use simple bullet points. Don't worry about perfect wording.
Bring these notes to our call.
We'll use them as the starting point for Step 1 of your session.
Step 2:Â Get honest about your current season and capacity
Your plan has to fit your real life, not an imaginary schedule.
Do this:
- Make a quick list of your responsibilities for the next 90 days:Â
- Work, family, and caregiving
- Existing commitments (shows, launches, events, collaborations)
- Any big life things (moves, travel, health, etc)
- Then answer:
- Realistically, how many hours per week can you give your business right now?
- When during the week do you usually have your best energy for:
- making your art?
- working on your business?
Bring this with you.
This helps us design a plan that's ambitious, but actually doable.
Step 3: Capture your "open loops" list
Let's get everything out of your head so we can sort it together.
Do this:
- Set a 5-minute timer.
- Write down every project, idea, or task on your mind for the next 90 days, on both sides
- Art: pieces, collections, shows, collaborations, learning
- Business: website, email list, social, shop updates, outreach, admin, etc.
Don't organize or judge this list. Just capture it.
We'll use this list in your session to decide:
- what matters now
- what can wait
- and what can be dropped
Â
A quick reminder:
- Check your email for your confirmation and calendar invite
- If you need to reschedule, please do so at least 24 hours in advance so another artist can take the spot.
- Bring your notes from Steps 1-3 (even if they're messy). They'll make our time together much more powerful
You've already starting thinking like a Creative CEO. We'll refine and ground that in a 90-day plan on our call!
Next step for you now:
Add these three steps to your calendar right before our session (or block 15-20 minutes this week) so they actually happen.
I'm so looking forward to meeting you, hearing about your work, and exploring what's possible for this next season! We'll take your ideas out of overwhelm and into direction, creating a plan that supports your art, your business, and the creative life you're building.
Your next 90 days starts... now!
