includes 1:1 coaching session!
Here's thE GOOD NEWS:
You are a creative person.
And…being a creative person can mean:
You have lots of great ideas, but you don't know where to start.
Or – maybe you have one BIG idea that excites you, but you can't seem to get any traction on it, like:
What are creative containers,
and how can
they help?
The purpose of a container is to hold, store, or transport something…and this is how our ideas become tangible creative projects.
You need containers within which your creative practice can thrive! This means:
Who is this workshop for?
Artists who prioritize everything else before their creative practice
Creative small business owners who aren't sure what offering to focus on next
Writers who want this year to be the year they finally finish those personal essays
Anyone who wants to build more creativity into their daily life and claim the identity of ARTIST/WRITER/MUSICIAN/ etc. with ease
AND WHAT exactly will we do?
Creativity coach Catherine LaSota will walk you through the four essential containers for a thriving creative practice:
You will spend time in the workshop writing to prompts to strengthen each of these creative containers in your life. You'll make notes, lists, and actionable plans.
The Dream
(that containers can make possible)
You commit to your yourself with the same consistency that you commit to everyone else.
The demands of life (and capitalism) stop ruling your days, and you find joy now in your daily practice (rather than waiting for elusive perfect conditions).
It becomes easier to make your art than to ignore your creative desires.
A world that is better for the unique creative gifts that your beautiful heart and brain bring forth.

FAQ
WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING?
Bring your journal and your favorite pen(s). Tasty beverages & snacks are welcome, too. (We'll take breaks so you can stretch and refill your glass!)
WHAT IF CAN'T MAKE THE LIVE WORKSHOP?
No problem! Everyone who registers will receive a recording of the workshop and the slides, including all of the in-workshop exercises, within 48 hours of the conclusion of the live workshop.
HOW DO KNOW IF THIS WORKSHOP IS FOR ME?
Have you been putting your creative projects on the bottom of your to-do list? Do you have a hard time getting into your creative practice, or get easily exhausted or blocked when you do? Is there an unfinished book manuscript sitting in your bottom drawer? Have you not been able to make creative work like you used to in the past, because your capacity has changed? Are you discouraged from the progress you are making with your art? This workshop is for you.
DOES THIS WORKSHOP REQUIRE PARTICIPATION/SHARING WITH THE GROUP?
This is an active workshop, where you will be writing in your journal, taking notes, and making lists as we go, but you will NOT be required to share your work with the group – this time is for you.
DO I NEED TO HAVE A SPECIFIC CREATIVE PROJECT IN MIND TO BRING TO THIS WORKSHOP?
Not at all. While the tools you gain in this workshop will support you in taking the next steps for whatever projects you're in right now, it can also help you clarify what you want your next project to be. Best of all, it will strengthen your relationship with your creative practice, which will benefit your projects for years to come.
WILL YOU OFFER THIS AGAIN?
Likely yes. But this inaugural round is the only time that a 1:1 coaching session with Catherine will be included in the cost of the workshop.
Learning from Yourself
This is a workshop where the ultimate teacher is
the one in the mirror.
The answers are already inside of you – and this workshop will unearth them.
Your facilitator Catherine LaSota will provide prompts to tap into your experience and wisdom, so you can get in touch with your unique creative purpose and discover the methods that work for you.
The result? A more joyful, sustainable creative practice, and a commitment to the projects that matter – so that you actually…finish them.
Get ready to take action and see progress in your creative life by the end of the workshop!

—Jules Chung

—Erinn Batykefer

about your facilitator
CATHERINE LASOTA
I’m a creativity coach with 25+ years of experience in a variety of artistic fields in New York City, where I live with my husband and two young children. My own art practice includes writing, singing, object making, and facilitating events and containers for creative folks…and I've figured out how to do all of these things while working day jobs, parenting, and building inclusive creative community.
I bring my formal art training, my coaching and facilitation training, and my studies in astrology and tarot, among other practices, to my workshops and 1-on-1 support for people who want to develop and sustain a creative practice that works for them. As a middle child, a former bartender, a director of multiple cross-disciplinary programs in higher education, and an advanced certified SCUBA diver, I bring a wide variety of experiences to meet you where you are.
I look forward to seeing you soon!
Let's give a boost to your creative practice.
We are going to have fun.
