Here is the thing. We fundamentally believe we are all artists. Like, if you work at a big glossy building in a grey suit, you are an artist. If that is a title you don’t wanna claim yet, that’s not our business.

BUT if you’re actually saying:

“I have an office job that isn’t creative!”

“I don’t make money selling my art.”

“I never wanna sell my art!”

“I am not a conventional “creative” person.”

Ultimately, we work with PEOPLE THAT HAVE IDEAS so if that means you’d like to paint 5,000 paintings and stack them on top of each other, never to be seen by the world, you’re also in the right place.

If you consider yourself an artist, or if you don’t, or if you want to, but it’s hard, welcome!

Artists, creatives, business owners, artpreneurs, art and cultural workers – anyone who makes anything for anyone. This space is open to multi-disciplinary folks, and artists that work within one discipline. The magic of this space is that we can learn A LOT from different paths, and ways of being and creating.

We are so excited and ready to work with you! If you have a little spark inside you to create something and usher it into this world, you my friend, are an artist, and you BELONG here! ✨

We use your creative and artistic skills to establish a trusting and resilient relationship to your creativity, and in turn…your art.

We use the artistic skills YOU ARE ALREADY HAVE to help support the parts of making/business/marketing that might not thrill you.

We will use your own artistic process to find the answers you seek, and trust that creativity will show you the way. Your creativity is actually the thing that will help you show up.

We are two very critical people of the coaching industry, AND we believe in the magic coaching has brought to our lives as well. We believe finding the right coach for your is important. We are two trauma informed, somatic focused (i.e. how the fuck your body feels) beings, and are way more interested in what you WANT to do rather then what you think you should do.

The Academy is about stepping “outside” the norm, while having the art school journey you always wanted. It is about finding and understanding how you work as an artist or creative, and creating your own way forward.

Inside the Academy, we unlock your unique relationship and process to creativity, so you can keep showing up no matter what it is you’re making.

At DYE we believe you can do what you want, how you want, and build the creative life you want, using the gifts of art making you already have, while prioritizing rest and play.

We also do not believe in one size fits all. We will help you navigate your next best move, together. 🌱

The Academy runs throughout the year, with seasonal breaks, and different semester themes. Our office hours begin monthly in the Fall 2025, and our community hours (In Process) are bi-weekly.

Mostly but we offer IRL events a couple times a year. Depending on the semester and season. That can look like in person workshops, artist meet ups, or retreats. These are either free or heavily discounted for Academy students.

We open the doors to the Academy in the Fall and Spring and close them while we are running our courses and teaching workshops. Once doors close, you gotta wait till we open them back up again. You can either book a call with us for a tour + chat about it, or dive right in.

Once you add to cart, you will be sent a welcome email with log in instructions, access to the Slack, and your Academy portal! 💃 Additionally we will follow up (usually within a few biz days!) to book a call and create your personalized syllabus so you feel supported every step of your creative path!

Hell nah, and in fact we don’t expect you too!

Once you add to cart + register, we meet to chat about where you’re at and make a customized syllabus for you to get started.

We developed the Academy after a decade in the creative industry knowing your seasons of creative entrepreneurship and where you are at in your creative journey will ebb and flow. We are here to navigate those seasons together. 💕

Nope! Your one time payment gives you lifetime access to The Academy. This is not a weird scammy membership model where sometime in the future you’re hit with a secret “time to renew!” email. We don’t believe in the subscription model to access community.

We offer payment to the Academy at a sliding scale, or it can be broken up into separate payments. We currently don’t manage, cap or qualify our sliding scale so please pick whatever number feels manageable for you in this season in your life.

Check out our class calendar for current dates.

We typically meet on weekdays at Noon, 3pm, or 7pm EST. With the occasional workshop at 12pm EST on Sundays.

We are always learning and responding to our Academy students needs, if the times we offer live calls, workshops, and office hours do not work for the majority of students, we will offer alternative dates. And of COURSE we send recordings out! 🫶
