The "Acting Creative Director" Advantage

In this session, I’m stepping in to do the high-level looking that you’re often too close to the work to do yourself. It’s an invitation to stop worrying about the basics and start making the big, directional calls that actually move the needle for your brand and your capacity. During our hour, we may:

  • Evaluate your work as an interconnected system to make sure your message and your goals are actually speaking the same language.

  • Give you executive-level recommendations on what’s worth building, what needs a tweak, and what you should probably stop doing altogether.

  • Translate your vision into a structure that works, creating a plan that respects your energy and your time.

01 Secure Your Spot

Purchase the session to initiate our engagement. Because I dedicate significant prep time to every roadmap, availability is strictly limited.

02 Intake & Scheduling

You’ll receive a link to your strategic intake form and my calendar. Take the time you need to sit with the questions—your reflections here are the foundation of my prep.

03 The Dialogue

Once your form is in and your date is set, we meet live for 60 minutes to dig into the bones of your work and finalize your 3–6 month strategic roadmap.

Session Protocols & Logistics

Engagement Flow: This is a two-part process. You are purchasing the session first; scheduling and the intake form follow via email. This allows you the necessary space to provide the depth required for an executive-level audit.

Prep Integrity: Your completed intake form must be submitted at least 48 hours before our scheduled call. This is non-negotiable, as it allows me the time needed to audit your landscape before we meet.

The Roadmap: You will receive a clear, prioritized 3–6 month plan of action. This is a strategic document; implementation is the responsibility of you or your team.

Rescheduling: You may reschedule once with at least 24 hours' notice. Sessions missed without notice or with an incomplete intake form are subject to rescheduling to protect the integrity of the work.

  • Likely not yet. This session is designed for creators who have an established body of work—meaning you have enough content and data for us to actually audit. If you are starting from zero or have just launched without any prior publishing or media experience, you’ll find more value in foundational podcasting education first. We do our best work when there are "bones" to look at: a catalog to review, a message that has been tested, and real-world friction to solve. We are here to pivot and refine existing work, rather than building the very first brick.

  • It is a high-level strategic document that identifies your priorities for the next 3 to 6 months. It’s not a list of "how-to" tasks; it’s a directional guide that tells you what to focus on, what to pause, and how to align your content with your business goals so you can stop second-guessing your moves.

  • Absolutely. But we’re going to have a "real-talk" version of that conversation. We look at monetization through the lens of your actual capacity and realistic audience engagement. We move past the "ideal" and look at the honest math of your show to find a model that actually works for your life, not just your aspirations.

    • This session is designed as a high-impact catalyst - a way to clear the fog and set a solid 3–6 month path in one go. However, I know that strategy is often a moving target. If our work together reveals that you need a dedicated partner to help you implement the roadmap or navigate the nuances of your pivot month-to-month, this session is the perfect on-ramp to The Momentum Series.

    • You can transition into Strategic Ears for ongoing monthly async direction, or move into a full Director Eyes engagement if you require comprehensive executive oversight on your assets and operations.
