1:1 Creative Business Coaching
Carve your own creative path, one step at a time.
Weekly support to bring your creative ideas, projects and offerings to life, at a pace that honours your capacity & natural rhythms.
From overwhelm to calm clarity
The directions to following your own creative path are already inside you, they’re just hard to see sometimes.
Right now, you might be feeling stuck. Caught in a tangle of ideas, overloaded by options or weighed down by things you feel you “should” do to build your creative business. Building a creative business by yourself can feel overwhelming, and sometimes isolating — it helps to have someone in your corner who just “gets it”.
My secret superpower is the ability to untangle confusion so that you can find the clarity that’s already there, underneath the noise. Then to walk beside you as you take calm, tangible steps to actually make your business happen.
I want to help you create a business that leads with your values and your human-ness, and which allows you to make a living from your creativity in a way that honours your capacity and your own wellbeing.
I’ll bring a decade’s worth of experience running my own multifaceted creative business to the table, and offer guidance and insight wherever needed to help you find your own way.
The accountability has been amazing!
I've been trying to do my website for 3 years, and you've made me sit down and actually do it! You made everything feel fun and easy, and your support was invaluable — not just with the technical side of things but also with design and general business messaging. Thank you so much!
— Claire, who created a new website for her business
I absolutely believe it’s possible for you to:
Move away from the hustle
You don’t need to sacrifice your human-ness or your health to run a business. It’s possible to run a business in alignment with your values and to shape your working days to prioritise rest.
Bring your creative projects to life
It’s easy to get stuck at almost every point of the creative process — ideas overwhelm, over-thinking, self-doubt, technology confusion and struggling with motivation can all make it so hard to bring your dreams to life, but I can support you through it all.
Work with the seasons & cycles
Letting the seasons and cycles guide your work flow can help you feel more rooted in your self and your decisions, and can bring more ease and flow in your working rhythms.
Make a living doing what you love
I get that running a creative business is about building a rich and creatively abundant life that feels deeply fulfilling — as well as being financially sustainable.
Solo business, freelance, portfolio career… or something in between?
There are a million different ways you can make a living as a self-employed creative, so I won’t tie you down with rigid ideas of what a creative business “should” be. You might want to provide creative services, run group programmes or courses, sell your art or crafts, collaborate with others, sell digital products… a mix of any (or all) of these, and more!
I'm here to support you make a living as a creative in whatever way works best for you, not put you in a box marked “business”. So whether you call yourself a founder, business owner, solopreneur, artist, maker, practitioner, freelancer, sole trader, partner, or something else entirely — if you’re seeking a gentler, more human and more sustainable creative path, then this is for you. Get in touch to book a discovery call.
What we can actually make happen together
I can’t promise you overnight success or a 6-figure income. But here’s what I can promise you: I can gently support and guide you to turn that idea that's been stuck in your head into something real. And in a way that deeply honours your capacity, your values and your own inner wisdom.
Here’s how I’ve already helped others:
One client had felt a yearning to start sharing her story and her voice for years, but didn’t know where to begin. We worked through it together, and she’s already published her first 10 posts on Substack.
Another client was overwhelmed by the options for redesigning her website and wasn’t getting anywhere. We teased out what she truly wanted, and turned it into a clear, doable plan she could actually start on.
Yet another client felt lost in all the ideas and possible directions for her business. We honed things down until she knew exactly which offering to move forward with first, and she’s already taking her first bookings.
Whatever you’ve been struggling to make happen — designing a website, pivoting your business, launching an online shop, finally starting that newsletter — I'm here to help you go from "I keep meaning to..." to "I actually did it."
“Speaking with you helped me to realise that I am on the right path and that the answers I'm looking for are already inside me.”
— Meredith, after a clarity call
How 1:1 creative business coaching works
A Clarity Call to start
We’ll begin our coaching by having a 60-minute 1:1 Clarity Call on Zoom. We’ll dive deep into what you want to change or bring to life during our time together, and work out the best path forward to make that happen.
Weekly Voxer Coaching
Then for the rest of our time together we’ll stay in regular contact every week through Voxer — a free phone app that let’s us send voice notes in real time. I’ll be there by your side keeping you accountability and supporting you whenever you get stuck or need to talk something through.
Using Voxer means we can have an ongoing back-and-forth chat through the daily running of your business. We’ll check in every Monday to set you up for the week, and then I’ll be on hand regularly to keep you on track and offer support.
I’ll be there to hold space whenever you need it — I’ll help you untangle any confusion, provide a sounding board for your ideas, offer guidance from my own experience, and can even give you feedback on any design work you do (because hey, I’m a graphic & web designer too & let’s make the most of it!)
6 weeks, a whole quarter or more
We can work together for 6 weeks if you have a smaller project to focus on, or we can dive into a full season of support with quarterly coaching to make real change happen in your creative business.
You can extend your coaching by adding an extra 6 weeks or quarter at any time.

“For me to feel heard and finally understood feels incredible, and to be reassured that what I want is entirely possible is gold.”
— Heidi, after a clarity call
Why choose me as your creative business coach?
I’m not only a coach — I’m an artist, designer & creative practitioner too. I run my own creative business, and I have deep personal experience of the challenges creatives face. I understand that making a living as a creative can be made up of many different income streams, and I embrace it in how I run my own business. I have:
Spent 10 years offering freelance web design, graphic design & communications services and guidance to other small businesses (and this background allows me to provide you with design & digital software expertise in your own business)
Facilitated various creative wellbeing workshops & group programmes over the past 6 years
Collaborated with artists and organisations globally on creative health projects, supporting the wellbeing of hundreds of people
Sold my own makes in an online shop and markets
Received grant funding to test new creative ideas
Carried out a self-funded artist residency and been awarded an in-kind funded artist residency for 2027
Provided consulting on creative & disabilities projects
Almost all my work is about supporting others through times of transition — even in web design, people seek my services when they are at a pivot point, and so I have 10 years of experience guiding others through liminal spaces to find calm and clarity.
I live and work with chronic health conditions, and I’m passionate about finding ways to make creative businesses and practices sustainable. Flexibility and rest is deeply embedded in my own business, and I would love to support you to do the same.

FAQs
-
Yes - if you decide at any point during your 6 weeks of coaching that you’d actually like to extend to a 12 week package, we can do that (subject to my availability).
If you decide to do this, you will be charged an additional one-off payment of £480. This means you will pay £1,080 in total (the cost of a 12 week package).
Please note that this would not include an additional clarity call, so if you would like another clarity call before your next 6 weeks, you will need to pay the full 6 week package price of £600.
-
Yes, absolutely, you can continue coaching for as long as you would like by purchasing additional quarterly packages. We would have a one 1:1 Clarity Call on Zoom per quarter.
-
The support I offer is more of a hybrid between coaching, mentoring and guidance, depending on your needs.
While I have carried out training in coaching, active listening and facilitation, I am not an accredited coach and I do not use a specific coaching process or system. Similarly, I do not solely offer mentoring in the sense that I am guiding you solely from my own experience.
Instead, I hold space for you to talk through your ideas, intentions and struggles. I’ll ask questions to help guide you to find your own answers, will help you find clarity in any points of confusion and will keep you accountable through regular check-ins. I will also offer up my experience and expertise from being a self-employed creative wherever it feels relevant to help you find solutions, but I won’t ever tell you what you “should” do.
As well as this, I can also offer guidance as a web and graphic designer on specific project work - for example, if you want to develop a website, I can guide you through that whole process, or I can look at individual page designs to provide light feedback.
-
I’ll check in with you every Monday morning to get you set up for the week ahead, and then how often we chat may vary depending on the week and what questions come up, but if I haven’t heard from you in over a day I’ll give a gentle nudge to see how you’re doing.
I’ll be checking Voxer 2-3 times a day on my working days, so you’ll usually get a reply pretty promptly.
-
I work flexible hours from Mondays to Fridays, between 9am - 4pm.
-
The beauty of coaching through Voxer is that it’s flexible by design. We’ll have a check-in every Monday, but you can send voice notes when it suits you. The coaching happens alongside and around your work in bitesized moments throughout the week, so there’s particular no amount of time you need to commit.
-
Yes. You can pay for 6 weeks of coaching in 2x monthly instalments of £300, and you can pay for quarterly coaching in 3x monthly instalments of £360.
I may be able to offer other plans depending on individual circumstance to make the work more accessible to you - please contact me to discuss this.
-
You can contact me with any further questions at hello@rhiannonadler.co.uk . I work flexible hours Monday to Friday, 9am – 4pm, and it may take a few working days for me to reply.
