Learn from a Creative Self-Publishing Mentor Who’s Walked the Path

​

When you work with me, you’re not just hiring an assisted self-publishing service — you’re partnering with a seasoned creative entrepreneur who has built, grown, and run multiple businesses, while spending decades studying communication, psychology, spirituality, trauma, and metaphysical philosophy.

​

I understand the inner world of a creator just as deeply as the outer world of business — and I’ll help you navigate both so your book, tarot deck, oracle deck, or creative project can come to life with clarity and confidence.

There are other self-publishing consultants and services out there — but none with this unique combination of experience, training, and mentorship, including direct guidance from bestselling author SARK and Hollywood producer & screenwriter David Rotman.

​

This work is both art and alchemy for me.

​

I also know firsthand what it means to live — and thrive — with a neurodivergent mind and a passionate heart. I understand the intensity, the creativity, and the deep-feeling parts — and how to transform those qualities into your greatest publishing and business strengths.

​

With over twenty years immersed in the psychological and healing fields, I’m skilled at helping you move past self-doubt, perfectionism, fear, and the shadow-voices that try to hold you back — so your clearest, brightest creative expression can finally come through.

​

Self-employment and self-publishing can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’ll walk beside you step-by-step — from ideation to creation, platform selection to launch strategy — so your work reaches the world with professionalism, beauty, and heart.

​

Whether you’re ready to publish a book, bring a tarot or oracle deck into the world, or refine and elevate your existing creative business, I’d love to support you in birthing something extraordinary.
