And - here's the best part:
It’s also whatever YOU want it to be too.

Because we’re going to create this together, and I want you to be a part of it!

Have you been on the hunt for creative community that feel like home? 🥰🏡🎨

Are you ready to ditch the solitary studio vibes and join a vibrant community of fellow creative souls? 👩🏻‍🎨🧑🏾‍🎨👩🏼‍🎨👨🏿‍🎨👩🏻‍🎨

The kind of creative community that makes you feel like 🥰 “THIS. this right here is what it means to be an artist!!” 

I’m talking about a squad you can rely on for encouragement, motivation, plus tap in to for a massive dose of artistic inspiration 🎨 and some epic collaboration adventures!? 🙌🏿 🙌🏼 🙌🏾

Looking for affordable creative education by practicing artists 🖌️ who are in the arena with you, and can give you live “what’s working now” advice from their own creative practise?

I’m talking everything from on-the-ground art advice & tutorials, to social media shortcuts, branding, marketing and business upgrades - and so much more.

Plus.. learn from people who make it FUN 🎉 (not like your dry-ass art school professor)

Are you bouncing off the walls with excitement, like an artist with a crisp $1000 bill in an art store (the dream 🤤💸🎨) ready to turn your creative gig from a "side hustle" into the "pinch-me-I'm-living-the-dream" epic journey of a lifetime?

Surrounded by your creative friends and colleagues 👩🏻‍🎨🧑🏾‍🎨👩🏼‍🎨👨🏿‍🎨👩🏻‍🎨 cheering you on? (And liking all your social posts as an engagement booster obvi...) 📈

And me by your side as your mentor?! 👩🏻‍🎨

If you answered “YES” to any of those things... then get ready to do a happy dance because what's coming your way is going tp rock your flipping world. (And turn your creativity up a notch... or 10!) 🎨 🥰

OKAY… so what are you actually on about here, Steph?

Here’s the deal:

Coming in October 2023 is a brand new monthly online membership community for artists & creatives - a space where you can meet, share ideas, learn & grow together, as well as get access to education, coaching, mentorship and inspiration - all accessible for an easy, do-able, monthly subscription.

A space that truly serves and inspires creatives worldwide.

It’s called

(drumroll please!) 🥁

Creative Freedom Collective.

It's an exclusive online community for artists and creatives who want to live a life of freedom, expression, financial abundance, truly thriving, living from your gifts and doing life your way. 🎉🌏🗝️

It's your one-stop-shop for creative community, collaboration & connection - alongside artistic & business development ON TAP 🚰

Who's it for?

If you're an artist or a creative who sells your work or services online (or wants to!) - and you want to have access to a community of peers who are doing the same thing, as well as real-time education on "what's working now" - then this is for you!

You might be a visual artist, painter, illustrator, photographer, graphic designer, musician, digital artist, potter, fibre artist, creative mentor, art teacher, copywriter, animator, web designer - or honestly any career that falls under the category of "creative"

👩🏻‍🎨🧑🏾‍🎨👨🏼‍🎤👩🏼‍🎨👩🏼‍🎤👨🏿‍🎨👩🏻‍🎨🧑🏾‍🎤👨‍🎨

OR - you might be just starting out and *wanting* to begin your journey in these careers.

Either way - this is for you if you want the mentorship, education, 24/7 inspiring creative community to lean on, + not to mention the accountability to grow your business in a way that lights you the F UP and makes your soul shine ✨

IN A NUTSHELL:
For a monthly fee, you'll get access to:

• LIVE Coaching with moi 🙋🏻‍♀️ so you can get your questions answered in real time.
• LIVE Masterclasses on topics chosen by the group
• A 24/7 access community group with live feeds & group chats where you can connect with fellow members on different topics, ask your questions and get answers from me, my team, and the whole group - (as well as highly likely receive a barrage of random video/resource recommendations from me.. this is what often seems to happen in my spaces 😅)
• Peer-to-peer masterminding with your fellow creatives - so you can get real-time advice from your artist community all around the world.
• An ever-growing group of incredible, powerful creatives from all over the world to network with and help each other grow. (I mean, I envisage even more than that tbh.. I can imagine you staying at each other's houses when you're in each others cities... inviting each other to exhibit together.. sharing open calls for exhibitions.. and just generally doing what an artist community does - CREATING MAGIC & ART TOGETHER!)
• I'm also SO excited to bring in industry experts for masterclasses when it becomes financially viable!

I'll tell you a little more about all of these things in a minute, but before I do - if we've never met - allow me to introduce myself! 🙋🏻‍♀️

Hey! If we've never met before - I'm Steph (aka Stephanie Rose Freeman aka SRF 💁🏻‍♀️) 

I'm an artist who has made it my mission to figure out how to do it my way - how to run a creative business that's completely independent from any outside influences - a business where I can call the shots, where I can be in my creative genius, where I can live in my own creative world - and be paid handsomely for it. And I've also made it my mission to teach you how to do the same - by that I mean, how to create a business that truly serves YOU - and allows you to do it your way! And I REALLY want to make this knowledge as accessible as possible - hence the idea for this membership community (and also hence the name - "Creative Freedom Collective")

DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, THOUGH... HERE'S WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT BEING IN MY PROGRAMS 👇🏼

As you can see, I've been doing this for a while. 🙋🏻‍♀️

And these words are a testament to the transformation ✨📈❤️‍🔥 people recieve from my content, lessons & courses...

(and on a personal note, incredibly flattering and keep me going!!!) 🥰🥹😭😍

But wanna know something that I've recently realised? 👇🏼  

Here it is: To set the scene, I'm going to give you a little peek behind the curtain of how I've run my online art & business school - The Inspired Artist Academy - and what I've learned in the process:

For the last 5 years, I've been running courses that were around 6-8 weeks long.

⭐️ Deep dives into acrylic or oil painting, 🎨 served with a side of magic, symbolism & channelling, 🔮

Or...

⭐️ How to set up a thriving online art business 📈 that makes you pinch yourself every day like *omg look at all these orders coming in!!* 🚀💰

Or...

⭐️ Turning artists into social media sensations 📱🤩 - who know how to make creative content that goes viral, creates buzz & community - and SELLS their art! 💸

Or...

⭐️ How to turn your artistic skills into an online course side-hustle 💻  & make money from your knowledge... 💡

The list goes on!!

And by the end of these 6-8 week courses the participants would 9 times out of 10 be like "But wait! We only just got started! We only just got comfortable with each other!? I LOVE YOU GUYS!? 🥰 It's ending already!?" 😫

I can't understate the INCREDIBLE connections that people make inside these programs...

And that's not even mentioning the course content or learnings! 📚 (which are worth their weight in GOLD ... if I do say so myself!)

Often aside form the educational part, it's the *people* that make it!  👩🏻‍🎨🧑🏾‍🎨👨🏼‍🎤👩🏼‍🎨👩🏼‍🎤👨🏿‍🎨👩🏻‍🎨🧑🏾‍🎤👨‍🎨

It's the connections we form, the worldwide community of like-minded creatives, cheering each other on. 🌏❤️‍🔥🥂

And it's also the *transformation* that happens when we move towards our next level.

It's so so so, SO much more than education.

Another thing I've noticed, both in myself AND in my students - is the power of CONSISTENCY and TIME. ⏳

Of showing up regularly, for months at a time - and how much more transformational that is than a quick-bang 6-week whirlwind course. 🌪️

And so, here's what I did: 👇🏼

Recently, I ran one of my courses as a 5 month journey rather than an 8 week whirlwind - and WOW.

The transformation. 📈

The group dynamic. 💞

The lifelong friendships. 🤗

The LEVEL OF SUPPORT. ⭐️

The TRAN.SFOR.MA.TION (I know I already said it but I HAVE to say it again because it cannot be understated!!!!!)

Ugh - it was MAGICAL. ✨

And so fucking powerful.

And I mean - long term mentorship has been one of the biggest keys in my own business’s success too! So of course, it makes sense that it would be the same for you guys!

And I really want to provide you with a space where that level of transformation can be available for you - at a much, much lower price than it’s cost me! 🥰

So - that's a little peek behind the curtain of the intention for Creative Freedom Collective.

Long-term mentorship. 🙋🏻‍♀️📈

Long-term community connection. 👯🤗

Accessible education, 💻🍎

Powerful networking, 🤝

and FUN!!! 🎊

All of this, to create REAL TRANSFORMATION, ART WORLD CONNECTIONS and SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS GROWTH! (all of which require ⏰ time and consistency if you wanna do them right!)

And so.. the idea for Creative Freedom Collective was born.

A community space,  where you can access all of those juicy, business-&-creativity-expanding-things for a monthly fee that doesn't hurt your wallet - (especially if you join as a founding member!)

I'll tell you more about that in a bit...

because founding members have a very special role to play in this collective - and are being offered a very discounted price for playing that role 🤗

But for now, here's what's included: 👇🏼

WHAT YOU GET:

MEMBERS ONLY, 24/7 Exclusive Creative Community of Artists & Creative Entrepreneurs from ALL AROUND THE WORLD

Consider this - there's a quote that goes "you're the sum of the 5 people you spend the most time with" - i.e. you become who you hang around with. 👩🏻‍🎨🧑🏾‍🎨👨🏼‍🎤👩🏼‍🎨👩🏼‍🎤👨🏿‍🎨👩🏻‍🎨🧑🏾‍🎤👨‍🎨

And I don't know about you, but the path of an artist can be a solo one. 🍃👩🏻‍🎨 ☁️ We're in the studio alone most of the time, in our own creative bubble, making our art.

This is your opportunity to network with inspiring creatives from ALL OVER THE WORLD!

🤔💡 Think: logging in to the Creative Freedom Collective portal, and accessing all your masterclass recordings, coaching calls and live chat feeds ALONGSIDE your creative community ON TAP - discussing different topics, sharing tips, tricks and art hacks, liking each other's social media posts, giving constructive feedback & hyping each other up.

Aside from being the main portal for the membership & trainings, you can also use this space for networking, feedback, collaboration opportunities, friendship & more!

LIVE Mentorship & Coaching with SRF 🙋🏻‍♀️

Twice a month you're getting personal mentorship from me on LIVE video calls with your fellow members - (& yes, they're time-zone friendly!)

You'll get the opportunity to be in the "Hot-Seat" and receive live coaching that'll benefit you AND the group.

This is your chance to get my personal help on things like:

🎨 Selling your art online 💰 & how to get sales NOW!

🎨 Your social media strategy 📱 (& how to turn that reel from a "flop" to a "OMG that thing popped OFF!!!" 📈

🎨 Which piece of art to make prints of (& how to go about it!)

🎨 Having your own art exhibition

🎨 How to finish your "stuck" painting 🖌️ (& art feedback in general!) bonus, I'm gentle, not like your asshole art school professor 😅

🎨 Oil & Acrylic painting hacks
(& probably other types of art too! If it's something that I have experience with, I'll share it with you, just ask!)

🎨 Tapping into your true creative juice & FLOW! ✨

🎨 Sharing yourself authentically online, 💻🤗 breaking through your internal blocks & limiting beliefs, and being seen in your true creative greatness!

🎨 And anything else you need help with!! I'm here for YOU! 🥰

24/7 LIVE CHAT & LIVE FORUMS with Fellow Members

Want to drop your fellow members a line? 💌 Get immediate help on that stuck painting, or ring in for a little engagement boost 📈 on your latest reel?

There are a bunch of forums and live chat spaces in the portal for members to hang out in and share wisdom, friendship & community with each other! 💞

Think: 24/7 access to your worldwide creative community!!

Anytime you have a question, or just need another artist to bounce something off - your worldwide community are there to support you at any time! 🌎 🎨 ✨

LIVE Peer-to-Peer Video Masterminding

Aside from the Creative Freedom Collective community portal with the live chat feed & forums, you also get the chance to jump into LIVE video calls with your creative community - to network, share tips, energy, support and just to HANG OUT with your people. 👋

Want to just sit & make art together? 🎨🖌️ Do that!

Want to share social media platforms and give each other honest reviews of your content so you can all grow? 📱📈 This is your space for that!

Want to ask for art help from your peers and share notes on what makes a great piece of art? This. is. your. place!

These live calls are time-zone friendly, ⏰ and there will be multiple opportunities each week to meet with your fellow members all over the world!

New, Next Level, "Rapid Action" Masterclasses - with SRF (and GUESTS!)

Picture this: every month (or more!) you'll receive a masterclass on a topic voted by YOU!

Yes! You get to choose what you want to learn.

These masterclasses are fun, casual, digestible and ACTIONABLE - so you can quickly get the knowledge you need, learn in a way that's enjoyable and fun (P.S. did you know that we retain a huge % more information when we learn it while having fun!)  🎊 - and immediately start putting what you've learned into action.

Each masterclass will cover a fundamental artistic 🎨,  social media 📱, marketing 📣 or business 💰 topic that will help you create incredible work, grow your creative career and monetize your creative gifts.   

All masterclasses will be recorded and uploaded to the portal for future learning!

PLUS++ when it becomes financially viable for me to do so, I plan on bringing in guest teachers - so you can receive bonus masterclass from other industry experts! So excited for this!

24/7 Accessible - via Your Computer or AN APP IN YOUR POCKET!!!

YES!! There is a flipping APP!! 📱

(Can you tell I'm excited about this!?!)

That means you could be sitting on a train to your studio, and instead of scrolling TikTok you could be devouring a masterclass inside the membership portal, or you could be in live chat with one of your artist friends on the other side of the world, or you could be in a forum discussing your latest reels technique, or you could even be (still on the train visualisation here🚆) tuned in to a live coaching call with your video off - from the comfort of your phone in your train seat!! 

(Works with both iPhone & Android!)

⚠️ READ THIS before you sign up! ⚠️

Now...the thing is - I want to make this the BEST it can be.

I want this membership to truly serve it's members - I want you guys to be absolutely DELIGHTED with what you receive in here. 🥰

I picture you being totally STOKED 🤩 and absolutely lit-up 💡 by the community, the coaching, the masterclasses, the result you get in your creative practise as well as your business - the whole flipping thing.

But I need your help.

That's where you come in - as a founding member, I need your feedback.

I'm inviting you to help me build this thing (by telling me honestly, what works and what doesn't - what you use 👍 and what you don't. 👎 Where is the party 🥳 and where are the crickets!?🦗)

As a founding member, will have access to the "BETA" version of Creative Freedom Collective, and you'll have a say in exactly how this membership is structured - you get to customize this thing to suit YOU!

AND to top it off, you get a lifetime discount!

"I’m interested!! Tell me about the BETA version, Steph!?!"

Okay SO - like I said, I want to make this thing the best that it can possibly be.

I want it to feel so nourishing 🥰 and expansive ✨ and fun 🎊 for everyone involved.

I want artists to feel like their career has been propelled forward 📈  by being in this network, by having access to these teachings and this community.

And I want to make sure it feels correct and serves its true purpose of lifting artists and creatives UP into their greatness! ✅

That’s where you come in! 🥰

As a founding member, you get access to the BETA version of the membership - in what I'm affectionately calling "The 6 Month Play Space" 🎉

You'll still get access to all of the masterclasses, coaching calls, peer-to-peer mastermind calls, the app, and the whole 24/7 live group, for a heavily discounted price - and what I ask in return is that you give me honest feedback so I can tweak the membership and make it EVEN BETTER!

This is a 6 month commitment - where we test out different ways that this membership could work - in order to find the best way.

This means that for 6 months, there won’t be an *exact* set way that this thing will operate.

Like I said, you'll get access to all the juicy things inside the membership - not to mention meet a whole group of powerful new creative friends (and create potentially life-long artist friendships!)

But what will also be happening is we'll be in testing mode, in play mode, in "how-does-this-thing-work-best?" mode!

This might include:

💡 Trying different call times

💡 Different masterclass lengths and formats

💡 Maybe even different platforms!

💡 And I’m sure there will be other things that get tested out too.

During this journey we’ll collectively decide what works the best - and obviously at the end we'll have created the. best. artist. membership. evaaaah. PERIOD!! 

And you know what the best thing is?

If you sign up at this BETA, founding member price of $29 USD/month - and you decide to stay in the membership when it officially launches in 6 months… you get to keep the discounted price forever!!

YES! As long as you remain a member, you can keep the founding member's price for as long as you decide to stay in the membership.

Just to recap:

⭐️ This page is an invitation to join Creative Freedom Collective membership as a founding member.

⭐️ Founding members receive a lifetime discounted monthly membership fee of $29 USD/month - and in exchange are asked to provide feedback to help make this membership awesome AF. (I imagine this will happen through monthly surveys!)

⭐️ Founding members will receive access to the BETA version of this membership, including masterclasses, coaching calls, peer-to-peer mastermind calls, and the whole 24/7 live group, app & community portal where you can access the trainings, meeting recordings and also have a live feed of all your fellow members to chat to! Plus, you'll get 5 ready-to-watch masterclasses as a bonus gift for signing up!

⭐️ By joining as a founding member, you agree to the 6 month commitment - to pay $29 USD per month, and be part of the membership for the first 6 months (unless something totally crazy happens) and to participate, show up, and take it for a test-drive!

But here's the catch - the doors are open for 7 days ONLY! 

Yes - you have 7 days to decide whether you want to jump in and become a founding member of Creative Freedom Collective, have a say in it's creation, and receive a lifetime discount.

!! Just FYI: This lifetime discounted price will never be advertised again!
