Creative
Transformations
Individual Coaching
and Small Group Cohorts
with Judith-Kate Friedman
Are you working on a project that could use a boost?
Are you longing for a breakthrough in your creative life?
Do you wish you had more joy, ease, confidence, or courage?
Would you love a dedicated space and time with fellow artists who get it?
Creative Transformation is always possible.
Meeting regularly with mentors and peers who believe in you can make the difference.
My approach to individual coaching and small group cohorts are for you if:
• You have dreams that won’t quit but you can’t get traction
• You’re aware that negativity may be limiting your success and you seek more positivity
• You have a sense of your own unique vision or voice, yet you feel challenged about expressing yourself with greater freedom, ease, skill and power
• Or you’re a long-time artist in a life transition and things no longer work the way they did.
Let’s catalyze your creative vibrancy and see what’s possible!
Clients include:
• Creatives in transition seeking ways to launch new projects or get unstuck
• Long-time artists in need of new ideas, resources, and rejuvenation
• Emerging artists seeking mentorship and greater confidence, freedom, and ease
• Leaders, healers, and teaching artists who want to up-level skills, leverage expertise,
and increase satisfaction for themselves, their clients and the communities they serve.
What clients say about working with Judith-Kate:
“Judith-Kate’s sessions opened energetic and creative portals within me that are already manifesting change and new possibilities and awareness in my life.”
“I’m touched by Judith-Kate’s unswerving commitment to creative expression, inclusion, radical acceptance, kindness and community upliftment. She is championing a part of me she doesn’t even fully know yet. I love being in her orbit as she is committed to excellence and yet is so human and accessible.”
“Working with Judith-Kate changed my life. She tends to the fullness of the person. As one on her own self-work journey, she has been able to lovingly and honestly point out when my still-often-unconscious woundings of ‘taking on too much’ or ‘taking on what isn’t mine’ were coming into play.”
“My session with Judith Kate was nothing short of life changing. As my spirituality has deepened over the years, I have sought to receive more inner guidance from my intuition and, ideally, direct from my soul. In my session with Judith Kate, she guided me to have a profound experience of my soul in a way that I can instantly make that connection at any time. This has improved my life so much because, with a few moments of meditation, I can receive guidance about what is important for that day, what direction to take in the moment, and even what is important for my life. Not every answer comes from within. I have been guided to seek out people to further understand myself as well as provide insights and information to achieve my goals. Judith-Kate’s fee is modest compared to the tremendous value of having a session with her. I strongly suggest that you take that step! ”
“Judith-Kate’s work has so much soul and life to offer all who tune in.”
“Each of us holds a part of the great puzzle of what’s needed at this time for the well-being of all. As we honor all of who we are, personally, and as a society, everyone wins.”
—Judith-Kate Friedman
