TESTIMONIALS

I never realized the worth of a "coach" until I met Wickie Stamps. The process of creating results in any aspect of your life is painless when you have a supportive mentor. Wickie finishes what she starts, which is why I sought her out. I wanted to learn to finish projects and make decisions with integrity, and the coaching she provides is stellar. I highly recommend Wickie Stamps to anyone who is stuck in a process, interested in process, and spinning on processing a process! She truly inspires!

Wickie is a compassionate and attentive listener. She is helping me moved through old blocks which are keeping me from embracing my creativity. By helping me notice what about my behavior is feeding my devaluing habits she is helping me help myself. I feel truly honored to have had the opportunity to work with Wickie.

wickie is an artist. she understands the artist spirit. she knew that without financial stability, balance, and (gasp!) good health, i'd just be spinning my wheels. so we strategized and i was accountable for my actions, week after week, until my spreadsheet indicated that i was indeed going to survive.
 
then, somewhere around the sixth week i needed to respond to a creative deadline. for this, wickie brought out the big guns, techniques that would help me center my mind and create art without compromising the stability we'd worked so hard to achieve.
 
by the twelfth week, i realized that i had a balanced checkbook, health insurance, a roof over my head, AND a living art project. 
 
when i think of wickie, i breathe deep and hold my head up high, secure in my artistic identity.

Are you, like me, an artist who starts to hyperventilate whenever you open your gCal or are expected to call yourself an artist in public? Is creativity a key part of your life, or you'd like it to be, but you need help with organization, administration, motivation and self-cheerleading? Is it easier for you to write a dreaded email if someone else helps you realize that in fact right now is a great time to do it? Do you need a compassionate advocate for your creative dreams?

Well let me tell you, Wickie Stamps is worth her weight in Artist's Ways. This accomplished writer combines the skills of therapist, admin assistant, job counselor and sympathetic best friend, and will both make you tea while letting you whine (but just a little) *and* get your ass in gear! Wickie keeps pushing me and walking me through and nodding and understanding and keeping me on track. I've never been busier or tackled such deliciously terrifying challenges since I started working weekly with Wickie. In less than 6 months, I've knocked out a big bunch of creative goals: applied for and gotten my first grant, completed my first residency, been invited to a major performance tour and started work on my first book, not to mention getting to tell the SFMOMA about sex work in my underwear.  Wherever you want your creative career to go, Wickie will help you get there. Contact her!
