READY. SET. GO.
Planning Session
Feeling a bit stuck, unsure of the next steps, in need of in-depth feedback?
Let’s talk.
Let me guess why you’re here...
A creative project is calling you. One that you yearn to get going with, that you’d love to give more attention. And yet… It’s just not happening. Days get busy. Life gets in the way.
Here’s what I know.
That project is calling you for a reason – and it will feel freaking awesome when you make room for it in your life.
Who is this programme for?
This is for artists who create new, original work but are facing a few roadblocks. This could be reviewing their work and career to date, support on overcoming creative blocks, contextualising their practice and making their work more accessible to a bigger audience, and improving communication and networking strategies.
This is not for artists who do not want to approach their work with an entrepreneurial mindset, who prefer getting work only through agents or producers, who are waiting to be discovered, who are not interested in engaging with their audience.
A little bit about me…
I help artists to find clarity about their work and audience and develop marketing and business skills so they can build a creative life and career that has their own signature.
I specialize in inner-purpose search, authentic marketing and creative entrepreneurship.
I'm committed to helping artists fulfil their potential and maximising their essential contribution to society, while building a freaking awesome, impactful and sustainable creative life every step of the way.
As a theatre-maker and entrepreneur myself, I know first hand the challenges we face as artists as we put our work out in the world and start our career. I believe that while many artists are masters in their craft, very few are taught the day-to-day emotional labour and entrepreneurial skills that go into creating and sharing art. And so, sadly, the great majority of artists stop doing their work after art school, and a lot of beauty, connection and culture get lost. I want to change this cycle. In this planning session, READY. SET. GO. I will help you dive into your drivers for your work, unpack specific challenges, and design your short, medium and long term goals and an freaking awesome action plan - in your own terms.

“My time with Raquel was eye-opening. Being someone who functions very emotionally, I found her straightforward and clear strategies a breath of fresh air.
