What is The Artist’s Way?
The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path To Higher Creativity is a book and process created by writer Julia Cameron.
The goal is to work through creative recovery — the process of awakening and becoming more confident in your creativity. It introduces a set of core tools (morning pages and artist dates), supported by reading and reflection exercises.
The Artist’s Way ‘helps de-mystify the creative process by making it part of your daily life. It tackles your self-doubts, self-criticism and worries about time, money and the support to pursue our creative dream. It has already helped thousands of people to uncover their hidden talents — it can help you, too.’
— Julia Cameron
What makes this program special?
By joining me, you’ll be guided and supported beyond the pages of the book. Receive group coaching and tools to help deepen your process.
My facilitation process brings together my own experience as an artist, therapist, and coach.
I’ve completed the process of The Artist’s Way many times, and it has directly impacted my ability to express myself and share my creativity openly. Each time has been a unique opportunity to further deepen my self-understanding and my creativity.

‘I had the pleasure of working with Francesca during a journey of discovery called The Artist’s Way. She was the perfect host and held a space for our members to share in a safe and comfortable environment.
She facilitated the group in a way that was open, honest and fun! I would absolutely love to work with Francesca again in any creative capacity in the future and am grateful for having been a co-traveller on this amazing journey.’
