For creatives who've already built something real and now have no one to share and think with.
You've built a business that works
You have clients. You make money. You're past survival mode. But now you're stuck with a question you can't ask anyone. Do I scale this? Sell it? Build something else? Follow the next trend. Double down even though it feels small? Sell the company or become the brand? How do I break through to the next level? Does it even make sense for me? You can't think out loud with your team. They need you to be certain. You can't be uncertain with your partners. They need confidence. Your peers are either competitors or they solved this differently. The conversation feels off. So you're alone with it.
What you actually need
Not more information. Not another framework. Not a course. You need people. Builders at your level. People running real businesses with payroll and risk underneath them. People who understand why you might walk away from revenue that's easy. Who get what it costs to lead. That's what this is. Twelve of you. For a year. You show up once a month. You talk about what you're actually thinking about. The group thinks alongside you. No one's selling you a framework. No one's teaching. There's no stage. Just builders who know what you know and won't let you rationalize away from the hard decision.
What you get
Eleven other people asking the same question you are. Who know your context. Your team. Your constraints. What matters to you. Who will ask how it's going because they genuinely want to know. Who won't let you disappear or pretend. Permission to explore without committing. You can say "what if I sold?" or "what if I built something parallel?" without it becoming prophecy. You get to think. Real time. Not an afternoon workshop. A year to sit with the actual question. To test ideas. To evolve. A facilitator who's built businesses, sold one, runs another. Not there to advise you. There to keep the conversation honest. One guest speaker a month. Someone who's solved the problems you're wrestling with. Not lecturing. Just real perspective. Async chat space between calls for sharing what worked, what failed, what you're wrestling with. To share guidance, resources and opinions. Everyone teaches once. One thing that actually shifted your business. A strategy. A decision. A mindset shift. Because the best thinking comes from builders.
The structure
Monthly two-hour calls. Twelve people. One person brings the real question. We think about it together. Everyone gets their time over the year. That's it. €500/month One year minimum. Because this kind of thinking takes time. However, this is a peer-community, not a hostage situation. If it's not for you, you can leave anytime
Two options
COHORT: €300/week or €3,000 upfront
All four assets. The full journey. Twelve weeks. Cancel anytime.Includes one one-on-one call.
ONE-ON-ONE: €500/week or €5,000 upfront
Everything in cohort. Plus me interviewing you. THE INTERVIEW: Six one-on-one calls over 12 weeks. I will interview you about your actual thinking. How you see the industry. What you believe. Why do you make decisions the way you do? We turn that into something long-form. A podcast episode. A short newsletter series. Or a whitepaper. Something that showcases how you actually think.
Who this is for
You've built a business. You have clients, team, revenue. Now you're dealing with the next level of complexity. Not how to get clients. How to lead. How to decide what's actually worth your time. Whether to stay or build something new. How to think about legacy. You need peers. Not mentors. Peers who understand the weight of what you're carrying.
